Abstract
A toilet with voice command unit includes a base, a piping unit and a control unit. The base includes a first space and a second space. The piping unit is located in the first space and includes an inlet pipe, at least one outlet pipe and at least one electro-magnetic valve. When the at least one electro-magnetic valve is activated, the at least one outlet pipe is opened to flush the toilet. The control unit includes a voice command processing unit which receives at least one voice command from the user, and verifies the at least one voice command, and generates at least one voice command signal to activate the at least one electro-magnetic valve so that the at least one outlet pipe is opened to flush.
Claims13
A toilet with voice command unit comprising:
- a base having a first space and a second space;
- a lid seat being connected to the first space and having a through hole defined therethrough;
- a lid being pivotably connected to the lid seat for covering a first opening of the second space;
- a piping unit being located in the first space and comprising an inlet pipe, two outlet pipes and two electro-magnetic valves connected to the two outlet pipes correspondingly, the two outlet pipes and the inlet pipe forming a three-way pipe, one end of the inlet pipe being adapted to be connected with a water source, the two electro-magnetic valves being activated or shut off to respectively control open-status or close-status of the two outlet pipes, and
- a control unit being located in the through hole and controlling the two electro-magnetic valves to be activated, wherein the control unit comprising a box, a voice command processing unit, at least one battery and a cover;
- the box having a first room and a third room which communicates with the first room, the voice command processing unit being located in the first room;
- wherein when the voice command processing unit receives and verifies a first voice command, a first voice command signal is generated which is transferred from the first voice command, the first voice command signal simultaneously activates the two electro-magnetic valves so that the two outlet pipes are simultaneously in open-statuses for a first period of time;
- wherein when the voice command processing unit receives and verifies a second voice command, a second voice command signal is generated which is transferred from the second voice command, the second voice command signal activates one of the two electro-magnetic valves so that one of the two outlet pipes is in open-status for a second period of time, wherein the length of the second period of time is the same as the length of the first period of time;
- the at least one battery being located in the third room to provide electric power to the voice command processing unit and the two electro-magnetic valves, the cover being mounted to a top opening of the third room to seal the at least one battery in the third room, a seal ring being located between the cover and the top opening of the third room.
