Flush toilet

A flush toilet comprising:

• a storage tank configured to store flush water;
• a toilet body including a bowl configured to receive waste, a spouting port configured to spout flush water into the bowl, and a discharge trap that forms a part of a discharge flow channel for discharging waste in the bowl and includes an inlet connected to a lower portion of the bowl;
• a flush water supply flow channel extending from the storage tank to the toilet body, and
• an overflow channel configured to cause flush water to overflow when the flush water within the storage tank exceeds a predetermined water level,
• wherein the discharge trap further includes a bent conduit and a lowering conduit, the bent conduit forming the discharge flow channel lowering to a lowermost end behind and below the inlet and then rising to a top portion behind and above the lowermost end, and the lowering conduit forming the discharge flow channel lowering rearward and downward from the top portion of the bent conduit, and sealed water is formed within the bent conduit upstream of the top portion,
• the overflow channel is provided to connect the storage tank and the discharge flow channel downstream of the bent conduit, and
• the storage tank includes a reservoir where the flush water is stored from a state before toilet flushing begins until the state is restored after the toilet flushing is completed, and a connecting flow channel, and the connecting flow channel being provided in upstream of the overflow channel to connect the reservoir and the overflow channel,
• wherein an outflow port of the reservoir connected to an upstream end of the connecting flow channel is located at a position lower than a water level in the reservoir, and the overflow channel located downstream of the connecting flow channel has a portion higher than a stopped water level in the storage tank before the toilet flushing begins.
