A flush toilet of the present invention includes: a bowl including a waste receiving surface, a rim and a shelf surface, the shelf surface of the bowl including linear portions formed on a right side and a left side, a front arc portion connected to front ends of the linear portions, and a rear arc portion connected to rear ends of the linear portions; a rim spout portion spouting flush water to the shelf surface to form a circulating flow; and the like. Flush water is spouted backward from the rim spout port along the linear portions of the shelf surface; and the shelf surface and the waste receiving surface are coupled by an inner coupling portion, and a curvature radius of the inner coupling portion along a vertical direction is set to a smaller value on a rear end of the bowl than on a front end thereof.

The present disclosure discloses a method for controlling opening and closing of at least one water outlet of an electromagnetic distributor, the method comprising: detecting, by at least one sensor, a current position, relative to the at least one water outlet, of at least one solenoid valve core; determining, by a controller, a current state of the at least water outlet according to the detected current position of the at least one solenoid valve core; generating, by an electromagnetic coil, a magnetic field force on the at least one solenoid valve core; adjusting, by the controller, a direction and an amount of the magnetic field force on the at least one solenoid valve core according to the determined current state of the at least one water outlet; and controlling, by the controller, a movement, relative to the at least one water outlet, of the at least one solenoid valve core.

A tankless toilet includes a bowl, a trapway, and a jet. The bowl includes a rim at an upper portion of the bowl and a sump at a lower portion of the bowl. The trapway extends from the sump to a drain. The jet includes a main channel configured to receive a supply of water from a supply conduit, and a plurality of distribution channels configured to introduce water received from the main channel to at least one of the sump and the trapway. The jet is configured to receive the supply of water from the supply conduit at a first flow rate and induce a flow from the supply of water into the trapway at a second flow rate greater than the first flow rate to prime a siphon within the trapway. The second flow rate is greater than the first flow rate prior to priming the siphon.

A toilet assembly includes a toilet with a bowl, a rim surrounding the bowl, and a water inlet pipe extending upward from a rear of the toilet, a toilet seat that rests on the rim and has an opening positioned above the bowl, and an attachment connected to the inlet pipe and the toilet seat. The attachment may include a coupling engaging the inlet pipe and a hinge connection connected to the coupling, where the seat is pivotably connected to the hinge connection of the attachment to pivotably mount the seat on the toilet, such that the seat is pivotable about the hinge connection between a raised position and a lowered position. The coupling may engage the inlet pipe such that the hinge connection is positioned and connected to the seat at a location spaced upward from the top surface of the rear of the toilet.

The bowl portion of the flush toilet includes a bowl-shaped waste receiving surface and a rim portion formed on a top edge of the bowl portion. The rim portion includes a rim inside wall portion located on an inner side of the top edge of the bowl portion. The rim inside wall portion has a rim inside surface located at a lower area of the rim inside wall portion and a rim inside wall upper sloped surface having a section in a vertical plane, the shape of the section being sloped from an upper edge of the rim inside surface to an upper edge of the rim inside wall portion. The ratio between the height of the rim inside surface and the height of the rim inside wall upper sloped surface is 1:1 to 6:1 in a section in a vertical plane at any area other than a rear area.

A flush toilet includes: a bowl; at least one water discharge port to discharge water into the bowl; a water supply path to supply the water from a water supply source to the water discharge port therethrough; and a backflow check structure provided for the water supply path. The backflow check structure checks a backflow of the water running through the water supply path. The backflow check structure has: a water inlet port exposed to the air and directly communicating with the water discharge port; and a water outlet port to channel the water supplied from the water supply source toward the water inlet port. The water inlet port is arranged on a trajectory of the water running out through the water outlet port. The water that has passed through the water inlet port is channeled directly toward the water discharge port.

The present disclosure discloses an electromagnetic distributor and a toilet. The electromagnetic distributor comprises: a housing including a water inlet and at least two water outlets in communication with the water inlet; at least two solenoid valve cores, wherein the at least two solenoid valve cores correspond to the at least two water outlets; magnetic conducting part including at least two magnetic conducting chambers, wherein an electromagnetic loop is formed in each of the magnetic conducting chambers; wherein the at least two solenoid valve cores are respectively disposed in the at least two magnetic conducting chambers, and wherein each of the solenoid valve cores is configured to move away from or close to the corresponding water outlet under magnetic field generated by the corresponding electromagnetic loop, so as to independently control opening and closing of the corresponding water outlet. The toilet comprises the electromagnetic distributor according to any of the above.

The present invention relates to a flushing device that can be connected to a potable water system for flushing at least one water line (4), the flushing device comprising a flushing valve (8), a control line (24) that is connected to the flushing valve (8) in a controlling manner and a control device (22) that controls a position of the flushing valve (8) via the control line (24) in a time-dependent manner and/or in a manner depending on a water temperature and/or in a manner depending on a water consumption. In order to comply with the hygiene requirements for a potable water system and to enable efficient flushing, the flushing device according to the present invention is adapted to control the flushing process in a manner depending on the water pressure.
