TOILET SEAT EQUIPPED WITH A SYSTEM THAT USES WATER PRESSURE AND THE HUMAN BODY LOAD TO SUPPLY WATER TO AN AUTOMATIC FLUSHING DEVICE OF THE TOILET WITHOUT RECOURSE TO MAINS POWER.

摘要

The present invention relates to a toilet seat equipped with a system that uses water pressure and the human body load to supply water to an automatic flushing device of the toilet without recourse to mains power, and it is characterized in that it comprises: a human body load sensing part that senses a person using the toilet by means of the load of the body sitting on the toilet seat; a water channel control part that opens and closes a water channel by means of the load of the person using the toilet as sensed by the human body load sensing part and supplies/terminates the supply of water from the water conduit; and a water supply part that operates by means of the pressure of the water supplied from the water channel control part and supplies water to the automatic flushing device. In this way, in not only toilets used with water tanks but also flush-valve toilets for use with mains water, just a simple alteration to the flow channel rather than a change to the mechanism ensures that, without recourse to mains power, water pressure and the human body load can be used to achieve automatic flushing of the toilet by means of water supplied through a water conduit and the pressure chamber of a flush valve. Consequently the present invention constitutes a product which is not only able to reduce electrical consumption by being powerless but also provides an environmental solution by its use of a dry cell and which can also have mass appeal by not giving feelings of unease to the toilet user who follows a toilet user who has used the toilet and failed to flush it, thereby providing a more sanitary lavatory environment.
