Li Kang almost petrified! If it is really as my son said, with this kind of toilet, then going to the toilet is simply a pleasure! If you dedicate it to the official family, you will definitely get a big reward, but he doesn't know much about the principle of the flush toilet, after all, Li Xiang just described the structure of the flush toilet, which is difficult to understand!

Li Kang grabbed his son's shoulders and said excitedly: "Xiang'er, are you serious?" Can this object really be made? ”

Li Xiang said proudly: "Father, when did the child deceive you?" The child guarantees that as soon as this thing is made, it will be a big hit! ”

Li Kang laughed and said, "Good, good, good!" My son is worthy of being a fairy lit, this ceramic toilet will be popular in the world, today you will go to the kiln with your father, find a few craftsmen for your father to help you, and strive to make this flush toilet as soon as possible, okay? ”

Li Xiang nodded and said, "Father, the child has this intention!" ”

The father and son hurriedly arranged the work of Sanniang and Xiu'e, and gave them some money to buy clothes and buy oil, rice, meat and vegetables, and then got into a carriage and rushed towards the official kiln of Xiu Neisi. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

When he arrived at the official kiln yamen of the Xiu Nei Division, Li Kang immediately called the Hu steward, as well as several craftsmen, potters, and potters.

Of course, these people didn't know what Master Li Kang had asked them to do, so they were all a little panicked, thinking that they had done something wrong again.

Li Kang smiled at them and said, "I invite you to come to this official today, I want you to help, let's work together to make something called a flush toilet." Xiang'er, let's talk to the craftsmen. ”

Li Xiang coughed lightly and said, "Craftsmen, I am going to get an axe in front of you today." That's right, I invented a thing that allows everyone to go to the toilet comfortably, called a flush toilet, this flush toilet is different from the toilet we usually see, it can make people sit on it, very comfortable. At the same time, its structure can block the smell of feces, and after going to the toilet, the water can be automatically rinsed with just one touch. ”

Steward Hu said excitedly: "Little young master, can this matter be taken seriously?" If that's the case, then we can give this thing to the officials! ”

Li Xiang said with a smile: "Of course, now I will draw the structure of the flush toilet, everyone is an old craftsman, you should understand it at a glance." ”

After speaking, Li Xiang picked up a brush and ruler and drew on paper. To be honest, drawing with this brush is really a test of craftsmanship! If it weren't for the fear of arousing suspicion, Li Xiang would have wanted the super 3D printer to make a pencil out to draw.

Fortunately, Li Xiang also studied engineering drawing in his previous life, and he has a certain foundation, and a simple toilet structure diagram will soon be presented in front of everyone!

However, although the picture was drawn, if Li Xiang didn't explain it, the craftsmen didn't understand it for a while, and they were all a little puzzled.

Li Xiang smiled: "Have you seen it?" This is the flush toilet. Its main components are water inlet pipes, outlet pipes, water plugs, seepage pipes, floats, levers, water discharge knobs, etc. When we are done, we will press the water release button on the top of the water tank, and when we press the button, the button will pull up the water plug through the principle of the lever. The water in the water tank is replayed, and after the water in the water tank is washed down, the water plug will fall down by itself and block the water inlet. After that, the float descends with the water surface in the tank, drives the lever to pull the water plug of the water pipe, and puts the water into the tank to facilitate the next use. In the lower bend of the flush toilet, when the water in the tank is flushed out and the water in the tank is flushed out beyond this bend, the siphon principle is generated, and the dirty water and sewage are washed away together. When there is a small amount of water left at the elbow, the flushing is stopped, leaving a little water to become a water seal. The smell won't be diffuse, do you understand? ”

Steward Hu nodded knowingly and said, "Young Master, I understand this a little bit, but what is the siphon principle you are talking about?" Can the water really flow away on its own? ”

Li Xiang nodded and said, "This is exactly what I want to tell you, this is called the siphon device, which is the second core system of the flush toilet." There is a serpentine hose called a siphon under the inside of the ceramic fired toilet, don't just think that this pipe just plays the role of a liquid seal to isolate odors. When there is enough water to make the water surface in the pipe cross the highest point, it can cause the siphon phenomenon. The water in the bucket will flow down the pipe, over the mouth edge of the bucket that is higher than the liquid level, and flow to a lower place outside the bucket, that is, first up and then down, until all the water in the bucket is gone. This phenomenon can be a good way to clean the inside of the toilet. However, enough water must be poured into the urinal fast enough to cause significant siphoning. So the key to the tank is to drain the water out quickly enough in a short enough time to create a siphon effect that sucks all the water and dirt out of the urinal. ”

After Li Xiang's explanation, Steward Hu and several craftsmen also roughly understood this truth, although they hadn't read much, they had been doing handicrafts all year round, and their ability to accept these things was a little faster than that of a scholar like Li Kang.

Steward Hu said excitedly: "This toilet is really good, young master, you are so powerful!" You can make such a thing! We can do this thing, young master, you can arrange it, how do we do it. ”

Li Xiang also said happily: "It's average!" Young master, I just came up with an idea, whether I can succeed or not depends on you! Don't underestimate this flush toilet, just the firing of the ceramic toilet is not so simple. It's a bit more complicated, so you have to think about how you can make it so standard that it doesn't deform. In the process of kiln firing, it is necessary to prevent the occurrence of defects such as cracking and bulging. I recommend that you use molds to mold, so that the size of the toilet bowl will be standard, easy to install, and easy to make in large quantities. ”

Steward Hu nodded, suddenly remembered something, and asked, "There is nothing wrong with this." But what are those pipes made of? ”

Li Xiang also knows that the best is of course the plastic water pipe, but where does the plastic come from at this time, but the bamboo is also good, and then the water tank can also be made of ceramics.

Thinking of this, Li Xiang replied: "Hu Guan, I think this water tank can also be made of ceramics, and for water pipes, I suggest that you can choose two kinds, one is made of bamboo, and the other is made of copper pipes." ”

Steward Hu thought for a while and said: "Yes, the advantage of pipes made of bamboo is cheap, but it will have to be replaced soon, if you use copper pipes, the price will naturally be much higher, but these flush toilets are just made and dedicated to the emperor, so there is no problem with higher prices." Let's go and prepare, adults and young masters will wait for our good news! ”

Li Kang nodded and said, "Go ahead, you must do a good job." Don't be in a hurry, try to make a small amount first, and then make more when it's successful! ”

Steward Hu and several craftsmen hurriedly sang a promise, and then retreated with the structural diagram of the flush toilet drawn by Li Xiang.
