Abstract: A flush toilet includes a reservoir tank, a bowl, a rim spout port, a discharge trap conduit, a jet spout port configured to spout flush water toward an inlet of the discharge trap conduit, a jet water conduit configured to supply the flush water from the reservoir tank to the jet spout port, and a discharge device configured to supply or stop supplying the flush water to the jet water conduit, wherein the flush water is spouted at a first flow rate from the jet spout port when the discharge device is driven and the flush water in the reservoir tank flows into the jet water conduit and, after spouting of the first flow rate ends, the flush water is spouted at a second flow rate from the jet spout port due to the flush water retained in the jet water conduit flowing toward the jet spout port.

Abstract: The present invention is a flush toilet apparatus including a flush toilet main body that includes a bowl, a water discharge trap pipe, an upper water discharge port, and a lower water discharge port, and a flush control device configured to execute a large flush mode and a small flush mode, in which the flush control device causes the flush water to be discharged from the lower water discharge port with substantially the same amount in each of the large flush mode and the small flush mode to induce a siphon phenomenon in the water discharge trap pipe, while controlling the water discharge from the upper water discharge port so that a water level of pooled water in the bowl during the water discharge from the lower water discharge port is changed between the large flush mode and the small flush mode.

Abstract: A siphon jet flush toilet comprises: a bowl; a rim spout port suppling flush water to the bowl; a discharge trap conduit; a jet spout port spouting flush water toward an inlet of the discharge trap conduit; a reservoir tank including a jet spouting discharge valve and storing flush water; a jet water conduit configured to guide the flush water in the reservoir tank to the jet spout port; and a controller being configured to control a rim spouting in which the flush water is spouted from the rim spout port and a jet spouting in which the flush water is spouted from the jet spout port, wherein the jet spouting discharge valve includes a valve body, the valve body being arranged at a position that is lower than an upper surface of the bowl and higher than a seal water level, and before opening the jet spouting discharge valve, the flush water is supplied to the jet water conduit.

Abstract: The present invention provides a flush toilet device (1) including: a flush toilet (2); a flush water tank (10); a discharge valve (12) that discharges the flush water stored in the flush water tank; a branching portion (33) that splits flush water supplied from a water supply source into first and second branched flow paths; a first on-off valve (19) provided in the first branched flow path and switches between spout and stop of the flush water from the upper spout port; a second on-off valve (17) provided in the second branched flow path and switches between supply and stop of the flush water into the flush water tank; and a controller (28) that controls the first and second on-off valve so that water is spouted from the upper spout port and is supplied into the flush water tank at a time by opening the first and second on-off valves.
