    The flush toilet was invented by an English priest named John Harrington.

    In the time of Queen Elizabeth I of England (1558-1603 AD), there was a British priest named John Harrington, who was exiled for immorality, and during his exile, he designed the world's first flush toilet in the penal area.

    The flush toilet consists of the following main parts: inlet pipe, outlet pipe, seepage pipe, water plug (inlet and outlet), float, drain knob and lever, water refill mechanism, water tank, urinal (the urinal has a bend that connects to the water tank).

    The basic principle of the flush toilet is to use the gravity of the water to convert the potential energy of the water into the kinetic energy of the water, so as to carry the excrement into the sewer pipe.
