DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0041] In order to make the technical problems to be solved by the utility model and the technical solutions and beneficial effects of the utility model clearer, the utility model will be further described in detail with reference to the drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for the purpose of explaining the utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model.
[0042] Referring to
[0043] The water tank body 1 has a first water storage chamber 11 and a second water storage chamber 12, the first water storage chamber 11 is provided with a first drainage channel, and the second water storage chamber 12 is provided with a second drainage channel. The drainage valve 2 is used for controlling the opening/closing of the second drainage channel.
[0044] The drainage valve 2 has a full-drainage switch 291 and a half-drainage switch 292 for controlling the opening of the second drainage channel.
[0045] The water blocking member 3 moves relative to the water tank body 1 under the control of the full-drainage switch 291 or the half-drainage switch 292, so as to control switching of the first drainage channel between open and closed states. When the water blocking member 3 controls the first drainage channel to be open under the control of the full-drainage switch 291 or the half-drainage switch 292, water in the first water storage chamber 11 and water in the second water storage chamber 12 are discharged, thus realizing the full drainage of the water tank; and when the water blocking member 3 controls the first drainage channel to be closed under the control of the full-drainage switch 291 or the half-drainage switch 292, water in the first water storage chamber 11 is not discharged, and water in the second water storage chamber 12 is discharged, thus realizing the half drainage of the water tank. In this way, both single drainage and dual drainage of the water tank are realized by a single-drainage valve, the structure is simple, and functions are reliable.
[0046] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first drainage channel is a water passage 131 connecting the first water storage chamber 11 with the second water storage chamber 12, and the first drainage channel is a drainage port 14 formed in the bottom of the second water storage chamber 12. When the water passage 131 is open, water from the first water storage chamber 11 flows to the second water storage chamber 12 via the water passage 131, and then is discharged out of the water tank body 1 through the second drainage channel (the drainage port 14), which features a simpler structure. In other embodiments, water in the first water storage chamber 11 and water in the second water storage chamber 12 may flow out of the water tank body 1 independently via the first drainage channel and the second drainage channel respectively, that is, during draining, water in the first water storage chamber 11 is directly discharged out of the water tank body 1 without flowing into the second water storage chamber 12 first.
[0047] Specifically, in this embodiment, a partition board 13 is arranged between the first water storage chamber 11 and the second water storage chamber 12 to separate the first water storage chamber 11 and the second water storage chamber 12, the water passage 131 is a through hole formed in the partition board 13 to connect the first water storage chamber 11 with the second water storage chamber 12, and the through hole is located at a bottom of the partition board 13.
[0048] With reference to
[0049] The full-drainage switch 291 and the half-drainage switch 292 drive the gear 210 to rotate so as to drive the rack 28 to move, the rack 28 further drives the valve core 22 to move, and the valve core 22 further drives the water stop pad part 27 to move upward and open the drainage port 14 for drainage. After moving up, the valve core 22 is coupled to the float 24 in a floating state. When the water level of the second water storage chamber 12 falls to a predetermined position, the float 24 falls due to the lack of buoyancy, and the valve core 22 falls with the float, driving the water stop pad part 27 to close the drainage port 14 again. The bottom cover of the float 25 is bonded to the bottom opening of the float 24 in a sealed manner, so as to prevent the float 24 from being immersed in water for a long time to cause water to enter a buoyancy chamber 31 in the float 24, making the buoyancy of the float 24 become smaller or even disappear and then leading to unstable drainage or even failures of the drainage valve.
[0050] In this embodiment, the limiting member 4 is used for limiting a position of the water blocking member 3 or releasing the position limitation of the water blocking member 3; and when the full-drainage switch 291 is driven, the full-drainage switch 291 is linked with the limiting member 4 to release the position limitation of the water blocking member 3, and the water blocking member 3 moves relative to the water tank body 1 and controls the water passage 131 to switch to an open state.
[0051] Specifically, in this embodiment, the water blocking member 3 is preferably arranged in a sliding manner relative to the water tank body 1, and a side wall of the water blocking member 3 abuts against a side wall of the partition board 13 and slides up and down along the side wall of the partition board 13 to control switching of the water passage 131 between open and closed states. The water blocking member 3 comprises a buoyancy piece, a magnetic piece or an elastic piece; after the position limitation of the water blocking member 3 is released by the limiting member 4, the water blocking member 3 slides relative to the water tank body 1 under the action of buoyancy, magnetism or elasticity and opens the water passage 131; and the water blocking member 3 returns to the original position and closes the water passage 131 under the action of its own gravity or under the linkage of the valve core 22 of the drainage valve 2.
[0052] In this embodiment, the water blocking member 3 preferably comprises a buoyancy piece, and a buoyancy chamber 31 is arranged in the buoyancy piece. After the position limitation of the water blocking member 3 is released by the limiting member 4, the water blocking member 3 floats up under the buoyancy of the buoyancy chamber 31, so that the operation of the full-drainage switch 291 of the drainage valve is easier. In other embodiments, the water blocking member 3 may swing relative to the water tank body 1.
[0053] Specifically, the limiting member 4 is a driven block rotatably connected to the drainage valve 2 the driven block is provided with a first joint part 411 driven by the full-drainage switch 291 and a second abutting part 422 which is in abutting fit with the water blocking member 3. More specifically, the driven block comprises a first driven block 41 and a second driven block 42 which are rotatably connected to the drainage valve 2. The first driven block 41 is driven by the full-drainage switch 291, and the first driven block 41 drives the second driven block 42 so that the second driven block 42 releases the position limitation of the water blocking member 3.
[0054] A first joint part 411 driven by the full-drainage switch 291 and a first driving part 412 for driving the second driven block 42 to rotate are fixed to a peripheral side wall of the first driven block 41.
[0055] A second joint part 421 cooperating with the first driving part 412 and a second abutting part 422 abutting against an upper end face of the water blocking member 3 are fixed to a peripheral side wall of the second driven block 42.
[0056] With reference to
[0057] A water inlet device 6 is also arranged in the water tank body 1, which is used for filling the first water storage chamber 11 and the second water storage chamber 12 with water, and the water inlet device 6 may be a mechanical ball valve or an electromagnetic valve. In this embodiment, the water tank body 1 is placed in an external water tank 7, the water inlet device 6 is arranged in the external water tank 7 and located outside the water tank body 1, and the first water storage chamber 11 and the second water storage chamber 12 are filled with water through communication channels. In other embodiments, the water inlet device 6 can (but not limited to) be arranged in the first water storage chamber 11 or the second water storage chamber 12.
[0058] The water tank drainage volume control structure can be used on a toilet, so that the toilet has all the functions of the water tank drainage volume control structure.
[0059] The operation steps of this embodiment are as follows.
[0060] Referring to
[0062] Referring to
[0064] In other embodiments which are not shown, the full-drainage switch 291 may not be linked with the limiting member 4, but the half-drainage switch 292 is linked with the limiting member 4. Specifically, when the full-drainage switch 291 is driven, the water passage 131 is kept in an open state, and when the half-drainage switch 292 is driven, the half-drainage switch 292 is linked with the limiting member 4 to release the position limitation of the water blocking member 3, so that the water blocking member 3 moves relative to the water tank body 1 and controls the water passage 131 to switch to a closed state, which is also feasible.
[0065] In other embodiments which are not shown, the limiting member 4 may not be provided, and the full-drainage switch 291 directly drives the water blocking member 3 or the half-drainage switch 292 directly drives the water blocking member 3. Specifically, the full-drainage switch 291 drives the water blocking member 3, so that the water blocking member 3 controls the water passage 131 to switch to an open state from a closed state, and the half-drainage switch 292 does not drive the water blocking member 3; alternatively, the half-drainage switch 292 drives the water blocking member 3, so that the water blocking member 3 controls the water passage 131 to switch to a closed state from an open state, and the full-drainage switch 291 does not drive the water blocking member 3. Preferably, the drainage valve comprises a valve core 22 which is in opening/closing fit with the drainage port 14, and a float component in coupling fit or separation fit with the valve core 22. The valve core 22 is coupled to the float component after being driven to rise by the full-drainage switch 291 and the half-drainage switch 292, and the valve core 22 is linked with the water blocking member 3 so that the water blocking member 3 can control switching of the water passage 131 between open and closed states. Specifically, when the full-drainage switch 291 is used for driving the water blocking member 3, the full-drainage switch 291 is pressed to drive the valve core 22 to move upward, and the valve core 22 further drives the water stop pad part 27 to open the drainage port 14 for drainage, and at the same time, the valve core 22 drives the water blocking member 3 to control the water passage 131 to be open, so as to realize full drainage. When the half-drainage switch 292 is used for driving the water blocking member 3, the half-drainage switch 292 is pressed to drive the valve core 22 to move upward, and the valve core 22 further drives the water stop pad part 27 to open the drainage port 14 for drainage, and at the same time, the valve core 22 drives the water blocking member 3 to control the water passage 131 to be closed, so as to realize half drainage.
