Description

多感應場智慧馬桶 Multi-induction field wisdom toilet

本發明係關於一種馬桶,特別是關於一種多感應場智慧馬桶。 The present invention relates to a toilet, and more particularly to a multi-induction field smart toilet.

為了提升環境衛生,改善生活品質,人們不斷地改善馬桶,從傳統蹲式馬桶、坐式馬桶、而進步到現代的智慧馬桶。智慧馬桶除了提供原先的排除穢物的功能之外,也提供各種讓使用者更方便及舒適的功能。例如,自動掀蓋、自動掀坐墊、自動沖水、自動調節沖水量等等。這些功能除了讓使用者方便使用之外,也因為使用者不需要用手去觸碰到馬桶而降低病菌接觸感染的機率。 In order to improve environmental sanitation and improve the quality of life, people continue to improve the toilet, from the traditional squat toilet, sitting toilet, to the modern smart toilet. In addition to providing the original function of removing stolen goods, the smart toilet also provides various functions that make the user more convenient and comfortable. For example, automatic flip cover, automatic squat cushion, automatic flushing, automatic adjustment of flushing volume, etc. These features not only make it easy for the user to use, but also reduce the chance of the bacteria contacting the infection without the user having to touch the toilet with their hands.

習知智慧馬桶為了達到上述的功能,需要設置許多的紅外線感應裝置來做各種感應以做出對應的動作。而紅外線感應裝置在感應時,從發射端到感應端之間是不能有其他障礙物來阻礙,所以需要發射端不能裝設在馬桶內部而必須要外露於馬桶本體。例如在馬桶上挖洞供發射端裝入,或是在馬桶附近額外裝設感應裝置來對準要感應的空間。 In order to achieve the above functions, the conventional smart toilet needs to be provided with a plurality of infrared sensing devices to perform various sensing to perform corresponding actions. When the infrared sensing device is inductive, there is no other obstacle between the transmitting end and the sensing end, so the transmitting end cannot be installed inside the toilet and must be exposed to the toilet body. For example, a hole is made in the toilet for the launch end, or an inductive device is additionally installed near the toilet to align the space to be sensed.

然而,在習知技術中,紅外線感應裝置必定是額外裝設在馬桶本體,致使感應裝置暴露在這種廁所的潮濕環境下,而易於受潮而損壞,甚至漏電導致發生危險。再者,設置上必須排除紅外線發射端與受感應體之間的阻擋物體,否則會導致誤判,而對於感溫式紅外線則連物體的溫度(例,人體體表溫度)改變也會造成誤判或是漏判。 However, in the prior art, the infrared sensing device must be additionally installed in the toilet body, so that the sensing device is exposed to the humid environment of the toilet, and is easily damaged by moisture, and even electric leakage causes danger. Furthermore, the arrangement must exclude the blocking object between the infrared emitting end and the receiving body, otherwise it will lead to misjudgment, and for the temperature sensitive infrared, even if the temperature of the object (for example, the body surface temperature) changes, it may cause misjudgment or It is a missed judgment.

緣此,本發明之一目的即是提供一種多感應場智慧馬桶,以解決習知問題。 Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a multi-induction field smart toilet to solve the conventional problems.

Change and individually generate a proximity sensing information. The flushing control mechanism receives the proximity sensing information and performs a flush control of the potty space according to the logical operation result of one or more of the proximity sensing information, wherein the flushing control system at least includes controlling the flushing timing and the flushing The length of the water, and / or the amount of flushing water.

在本發明的一實施例中,近接感應資訊係包括受感應體的大小、位置、移動方向、且/或移動速度資訊。 In an embodiment of the invention, the proximity sensing information includes information about the size, position, direction of movement, and/or movement speed of the sensed body.

在本發明的一實施例中,這些近接感應電場具有相異的感應靈敏度。 In an embodiment of the invention, these proximity induced electric fields have different inductive sensitivities.

在本發明的一實施例中,沖水控制機構更包括一電磁閥及一沖水管道,電磁閥設置於沖水管道中,沖水管道之一出口端係設在碗面。 In an embodiment of the invention, the flushing control mechanism further includes a solenoid valve and a flushing pipe. The solenoid valve is disposed in the flushing pipe, and one of the outlet ends of the flushing pipe is disposed on the bowl surface.

經由本發明所採用之技術手段,近接感應構件完全不必暴露在潮濕環境下而提高近接感應構件的使用壽命,同時避免漏電等危險情況發生,也因此不需破壞馬桶本體的結構就能裝設近接感應構件,保持馬桶美觀。並且感應的準確度不受到物體阻隔的影響,而維持一定的感應品質。此外,藉由設置數個近接感應構件便可以達成複雜的動作判斷,進而讓使用者不用親自操作就可以完成沖水時機、沖水時長、沖水水量、馬桶蓋的掀起、或坐墊的掀起等等控制,除了令馬桶使用上更合乎衛生,也提升了使用馬桶的方便性。 Through the technical means adopted by the invention, the proximity sensing member does not need to be exposed to a humid environment to improve the service life of the proximity sensing member, and at the same time avoids dangerous situations such as electric leakage, and thus can be installed close to the structure of the toilet body without damaging the structure of the toilet body. Inductive components keep the toilet beautiful. And the accuracy of the induction is not affected by the obstruction of the object, but maintains a certain quality of induction. In addition, by setting a plurality of proximity sensing members, complex motion judgments can be achieved, thereby allowing the user to complete the flushing timing, the flushing time, the flushing water volume, the toilet lid lifting, or the cushioning of the seat cushion without the user's own operation. Controls, in addition to making the toilet more hygienic, also enhance the convenience of using the toilet.

請同時參閱第1及2圖,依據本發明之一實施例之多感應場智慧馬桶100包括一馬桶本體1、二個近接感應電場構件21、22、一分析機構3、以及一沖水控制機構4。 Please refer to FIGS. 1 and 2 simultaneously. The multi-induction field smart toilet 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a toilet body 1, two proximity induction electric field members 21, 22, an analysis mechanism 3, and a flush control mechanism. 4.

馬桶本體1是由絕緣體材質製成的(例,陶瓷),其具有一碗面11、由碗面11所圍出的一便盆空間12、一位在馬桶本體1內部的結構腔空間13。 The toilet body 1 is made of an insulator material (for example, ceramic) having a bowl surface 11, a potty space 12 surrounded by the bowl surface 11, and a structural cavity space 13 inside the toilet body 1.

近接感應電場構件21、22為一種能在自身周圍形成近接感應電場的構件,該近接感應電場依場能量強度而在有效感應範圍上有所不同,但至少在主要方向上涵蓋一範圍空間(範圍空間涵蓋約15cm)。近接感應電場構件21、22設置在結構腔空間13中,而在各個近接感應電場構件21、22之周圍分別形成一近接感應電場210、220。各近接感應電場構件21、22係根據其近接感應電場210、220對應一受感應體B而感應到之場能量變化而個別產生一近接感應資訊I1、I2,且近接感應資訊係包括受感應體B的大小、位置、移動方向、且/或移動速度資訊。近接感應電場構件21、22在本實施例中為一感應面構件。當然,本發明不限於此,在其他實施例中,如第3圖的一多感應場智慧馬桶100a所示,近接感應電場構件21a、22a是一感應線構件,繞設在結構腔空間13中,或如第4圖的一多感應場智慧馬桶100b所示,近接感應電場構件21b、22b為一感應體構件,填滿在結構腔空間13中。 The proximity induced electric field members 21, 22 are members capable of forming a proximity induced electric field around themselves, and the proximity induced electric field differs in effective effective range depending on the field energy intensity, but covers a range of space at least in the main direction (range The space covers approximately 15cm). The proximity induced electric field members 21, 22 are disposed in the structural cavity space 13, and a proximity induced electric field 210, 220 is formed around each of the proximity induced electric field members 21, 22. Each of the proximity sensing electric field members 21 and 22 separately generates a proximity sensing information I1 and I2 according to a field energy change induced by the proximity sensing electric field 210, 220 corresponding to a sensing body B, and the proximity sensing information includes the sensing body. B size, position, direction of movement, and/or movement speed information. The proximity sensing electric field members 21, 22 are a sensing surface member in this embodiment. Of course, the present invention is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, as shown in a multi-induction smart toilet 100a of FIG. 3, the proximity sensing electric field members 21a, 22a are a sensing line member, which is disposed in the structural cavity space 13. Or, as shown in a multi-induction smart toilet 100b of FIG. 4, the proximity-induction electric field members 21b, 22b are an inductive member filled in the structural cavity space 13.

舉例而言,在本實施例中,其中一個近接感應電場構件21之設置位置係對應於馬桶本體1之前側而在馬桶本體1的前側的一範圍空間(例,約15cm)形成近接感應電場210,用來感應受感應體B(如,腳部)。而另一個近接感應電場構件22之設置位置係對應於馬桶本體1的碗面11而在便盆空間12及便盆 空間12的上方的範圍空間(例,約15cm)形成近接感應電場220,用來感應受感應體B(如,臀部)。 For example, in the present embodiment, one of the proximity sensing electric field members 21 is disposed at a position corresponding to the front side of the toilet body 1 and forms a proximity induced electric field 210 in a range space (for example, about 15 cm) on the front side of the toilet body 1. Used to sense the affected body B (eg, the foot). The other proximity sensing electric field member 22 is disposed at a position corresponding to the bowl surface 11 of the toilet body 1 in the potty space 12 and the potty. The range above the space 12 (for example, about 15 cm) forms a proximity induced electric field 220 for sensing the sensed body B (e.g., the buttocks).

於是,當受感應體B接近馬桶本體1的前側約15cm 範圍空間內時,近接感應電場210之場能量變化隨之改變,而近接感應電場構件21則對應產生近接感應資訊I1。同樣地,當受感應體B接近馬桶本體1的便盆空間12的上方時,近接感應電場220之場能量變化隨之改變,而近接感應電場構件22則對應產生近接感應資訊I2。然後各近接感應資訊I1、I2傳送至分析機構3。 Thus, when the subject B is close to the front side of the toilet body 1, about 15 cm In the range space, the field energy change of the proximity induced electric field 210 changes, and the proximity induced electric field component 21 correspondingly generates the proximity sensing information I1. Similarly, when the subject B is close to the potty space 12 of the toilet body 1, the field energy change of the proximity induced electric field 220 changes, and the proximity induced electric field member 22 correspondingly generates the proximity sensing information I2. The proximity sensing information I1, I2 is then transmitted to the analysis mechanism 3.

分析機構3接收一個或多個的近接感應資訊I1、I2 後分析出受感應體B的大小、位置、移動方向、且/或移動速度資訊,並根據其邏輯運算結果而傳遞一控制訊號給沖水控制機構4。 The analysis mechanism 3 receives one or more proximity sensing information I1, I2 After that, the size, position, moving direction, and/or moving speed information of the sensed body B are analyzed, and a control signal is transmitted to the flushing control mechanism 4 according to the logical operation result.

沖水控制機構4電性連接分析機構3,用來控制沖水 時機、沖水時長、及/或沖水水量。沖水控制機構4係包括一電磁閥41、一沖水管道42、及一水箱43。電磁閥41設置於沖水管道42中,而沖水管道42之一出口端421係設在碗面11,另一端連接水箱43。沖水控制機構4根據接收的控制訊號而控制電磁閥41的開啟與關閉的時機及時間長度,藉此控制沖水時機、沖水時長、及/或沖水水量。 The flushing control mechanism 4 is electrically connected to the analysis mechanism 3 for controlling the flushing Timing, duration of flushing, and/or amount of flushing water. The flushing control mechanism 4 includes a solenoid valve 41, a flushing pipe 42, and a water tank 43. The solenoid valve 41 is disposed in the flushing duct 42, and one outlet end 421 of the flushing duct 42 is disposed on the bowl surface 11 and the other end is connected to the water tank 43. The flushing control unit 4 controls the timing and length of time during which the solenoid valve 41 is opened and closed based on the received control signal, thereby controlling the timing of flushing, the duration of flushing, and/or the amount of flushing water.

如第1圖所示,當受感應體B站立在馬桶本體1的 前側時,只有近接感應電場構件21之近接感應電場210之場能量受到影響而改變。近接感應電場構件21因此對應產生近接感應資訊I1並且傳送給分析機構3。分析機構3據以分析出受感應體B是站立著進行小便的邏輯運算結果,進而可根據受感應體B站立在馬桶本體1前的時間長短而決定沖水的時間長短。 As shown in Fig. 1, when the subject B is standing on the toilet body 1, On the front side, only the field energy of the proximity induced electric field 210 of the proximity induced electric field member 21 is affected and changed. The proximity sensing electric field member 21 thus correspondingly generates the proximity sensing information I1 and transmits it to the analysis mechanism 3. The analysis unit 3 analyzes the logical operation result of the subject B being standing and performing urination, and further determines the length of time for flushing according to the length of time that the subject B stands in front of the toilet body 1.

又如第2圖所示,當受感應體B坐在馬桶本體1上 時,近接感應電場210及近接感應電場220之場能量會因人體(腿部、臀部)的接近而隨之變化,二個近接感應電場構件21、22因此個別對應產生近接感應資訊I1、I2並且傳送給分析機構3。分 析機構3據以分析出受感應體B是坐在馬桶本體1上,並且可再根據受感應體B坐在馬桶本體1上的時間長短而對應決定所需的沖水時長。例如,坐在馬桶本體1上的時間愈長,則進行較長時間及/或較大水量的沖水。 As shown in Fig. 2, when the body B is seated on the toilet body 1, The field energy of the proximity induced electric field 210 and the proximity induced electric field 220 will change due to the proximity of the human body (legs, buttocks), and the two proximity induced electric field members 21, 22 thus individually generate the proximity sensing information I1, I2 and Transfer to the analysis agency 3. Minute The analyzing mechanism 3 analyzes that the subject B is sitting on the toilet body 1, and can further determine the required flushing time according to the length of time that the subject B sits on the toilet body 1. For example, the longer the time is spent sitting on the toilet body 1, the longer the time and/or the larger the amount of water is flushed.

參閱第5圖所示,本發明之多感應場智慧馬桶100c 亦可為不帶有水箱的馬桶。在本實施例中,多感應場智慧馬桶100c藉由控制電磁閥41開啟的時間長短來決定沖水水量即沖水時機,因此不需要額外使用水箱儲水來固定每次沖水水量,除了可以節省水箱的成本之外,控制上也更為方便且準確。多感應場智慧馬桶100c與前述實施例的差異除了未設置水箱外,更包括有一近接感應電場構件23及一環境近接感應電場構件24。近接感應電場構件23之設置位置係對應於馬桶本體1之靠背側壁,而於馬桶本體1之靠背側壁之前方範圍形成一近接感應電場230。於是,當受感應體B在近接感應電場230作出各種手勢時,例如向右揮動、向左揮動、向上揮動、或向下揮動等,分析機構3便會對應各種手勢產生近接感應資訊I3,並傳遞訊號給沖水控制機構4進行沖水,或者是傳遞訊號給一馬桶蓋機構5及一坐墊機構6,而對一馬桶蓋51或一坐墊61進行掀起或蓋下的控制。環境近接感應電場構件24之設置位置對應於馬桶本體1之底側,而於馬桶本體1之底側形成一環境近接感應電場240,用來感應馬桶本體1之環境的場能量變化,例如環境的濕度或震動等所造成場能量的變化。藉由環境近接感應電場構件24所得到的環境近接感應資訊I4可用於其他的近接感應電場構件之誤差補償,以排除環境的場能量變化的誤判情況。此外,當這些近接感應構件所形成的近接感應電場所涵蓋的範圍有所重疊時,藉由將各近接感應電場設定為相異的感應靈敏度,可避免各個近接感應電場互相干擾誤判,而提升整體感應判斷的準確度。 Referring to Figure 5, the multi-induction field smart toilet 100c of the present invention It can also be a toilet without a water tank. In this embodiment, the multi-induction smart toilet 100c determines the flushing water amount, that is, the flushing timing, by controlling the length of time the solenoid valve 41 is opened, so there is no need to additionally use the water tank storage water to fix the flushing water amount, except In addition to saving the cost of the water tank, the control is also more convenient and accurate. The difference between the multi-induction smart toilet 100c and the foregoing embodiment includes a proximity induction electric field member 23 and an environmental proximity induction electric field member 24, in addition to the absence of a water tank. The position of the proximity sensing electric field member 23 corresponds to the back side wall of the toilet body 1, and a proximity induction electric field 230 is formed in front of the back side wall of the toilet body 1. Therefore, when the sensing body B makes various gestures in the proximity sensing electric field 230, for example, waving to the right, waving to the left, waving upward, or waving downward, the analyzing mechanism 3 generates the proximity sensing information I3 corresponding to various gestures, and The water is sent to the flushing control unit 4 for flushing, or the signal is sent to a toilet lid mechanism 5 and a cushion mechanism 6, and a toilet lid 51 or a seat cushion 61 is controlled to be lifted or covered. The environment proximity sensing field member 24 is disposed at a position corresponding to the bottom side of the toilet body 1, and an environmental proximity sensing electric field 240 is formed on the bottom side of the toilet body 1 for sensing a change in field energy of the environment of the toilet body 1, such as an environment. Changes in field energy caused by humidity or vibration. The environmental proximity sensing information I4 obtained by the environment proximity sensing electric field component 24 can be used for error compensation of other proximity induced electric field components to eliminate misjudgment of the field energy variation of the environment. In addition, when the ranges covered by the proximity sensing electric fields formed by the proximity sensing members overlap, by setting the proximity sensing electric fields to different sensing sensitivities, it is possible to avoid misinterpretation of each of the proximity induced electric fields, and improve the overall The accuracy of the sensing judgment.
