Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a sanitary appliance, particularly to a body purging apparatus for purging the bottom of a person after he or she defecates and/or urinates.
- People usually use toilet paper to clean their bottoms after they defecate or urinate. However, they could be infected with diseases or parasites, as toilet paper is not sanitary at all. As a matter of fact, it is not satisfactorily effective to clean a human body with toilet paper. Furthermore, discarded paper could clog the drainage.
- A conventional purging apparatus is disclosed by Chinese utility model No. 89219065.5 entitled "A Portable Apparatus for Purging a Human Body". As shown in Fig. 1, the purging apparatus comprises a
tank 1, asprayer 2, a foamplastic plug 5 and acylindrical enclosure 4. Thesprayer 2 is screwed onto thetank 1, which is made from a flexible plastic and consists of an upper shell and a lower shell both of which are engaged or sealed tightly with each other. Thesprayer 2 is inserted into the foamplastic socket 5, which is used for cleaning or rubbing the sprayer. Somenapkins 3 may be received in theenclosure 4. Thethank 1 has a section shaped elliptically. Naturally, thetank 4 is used for containing water, which is often kept at a substantially constant temperature when the tank is carried close to the body. Though the conventional purging apparatus is effective somewhat in purging, it is still deemed generally as a rudiment device. Particularly, it is disadvantageous in that it is constructed too simply to be used conveniently and widely, and there is no warm water generated for users. - As people grow rich, a purging apparatus has evolved from a so-called luxurious appliance to a routine necessity used widely. As shown in Fig. 2, another conventional purging apparatus comprises a
toilet basin 9 and atap 7 disposed on a front portion of the brim of thebasin 9. The conventional apparatus is found disadvantageous in that: - (1) When the
basin 9 is installed in a toilet room, it is usually placed in abutment with a wall. A user is forced to seat himself on the basin and face the wall to purge himself by adjusting the tap, since the tap is not disposed conveniently for the user and the water temperature is not monitored automatically. - (2) As the basin is not provided with a cover, the user is forced to seat himself directly on the brim of the basin to purge himself. Most users feel uncomfortable or even terrible, as the basin is made of a ceramic material.
- (3) The
tap 7 has asprayer 8 mounted with a predetermined orientation, which is not adjustable to purge in a desired direction. -
- To overcome the disadvantages of the prior art as described above, the present invention provides a sanitary purging apparatus including a basin, a housing disposed on the front portion of the brim of the basin, a temperature monitor provided with a central temperature-monitor unit, and a flux-monitor comprising a central flux-monitor unit and a valve casing, the housing is formed with a first transverse receiving hole having a left portion and a right portion for receiving the central temperature-monitor unit which is provided with a hot water filter layer and a cold water filter layer communicated respectively with a hot water supplier and a cold water supplier, the left portion accommodating the central flux-monitor unit formed with a flux bore and the valve casing formed with a casing bore, the central flux-monitor unit is mounted to the valve casing, so that the former can slide axially in the latter to change the area over which the flux bore and the casing bore coincide with each other for the purpose of adjusting the water flux through the area, a water output passage having an end connected to the casing bore and another end communicated with an end of a water output conduit provided with another end connected to a sprayer disposed in the basin.
- Some preferred embodiments are further defined in the dependent claims.
- Compared with the prior art, the present invention is advantageous in that:
- (1) The purging apparatus is provided with a water-temperature monitor that can adjust and monitor the output temperature by means of rotation of the handwheel. The temperature is kept constant in use. A user will seat himself or herself on the basin and be faced opposite to the building wall. In other word, the user will not be forced to face the wall anymore. As the temperature is set to a predetermined value, users will adapt the water flow by means of rotation of the flux-adjusting wheel.
- (2) The water flow can be adjusted manually by means of rotation of the flux-adjusting handwheel.
- (3) The water distributor distributes the water flux to the transversely oscillating sprayer and the longitudinally oscillating sprayer so that the sprayers can aim to the directions as desired subsequently.
- (4) The apparatus has a cover used for keeping the basin clean and provided with a cushion ring for seating a user comfortably.
