Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To remove an existing stool lid and assemble a toilet seat for child simply from above by utilizing a rotary shaft of this stool lid by attaching and detaching the toilet seat for child freely on the rotary shaft supporting a toilet seat attached to a device body arranged in a stool so as to rotate. SOLUTION: When a toilet seat 3 for child is removed, a knob 16 is turned in Y-direction to release the engagment of a claw, and a force is applied continuously in Y-direction so that a C-ring part 14 of a member 13 for attaching and detaching slides in a guide groove. An opening 12 and a shaft hole 8b are communicated due to the rotation of a shut-off part 15, and a rotary shaft 2b is pulled out along this communication passage to remove the toilet seat 3 for child from a toilet seat 4. When the toilet seat 3 for child is mounted, the rotary shaft 2b is inserted into the shaft hole 8b through the opening 12 on the contrary, and a member 14 for attaching and detaching is turned in X-direction. Consequently, the shaft hole 8b and the opening 12 are shut off in a base part 14 to prevent coming off of the rotary shaft 2b so that the toilet seat 3 for child is mounted on the toilet seat 4.

[0018]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described.
This will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a state in which a child toilet seat according to the present invention is mounted, and FIG. 2 shows a toilet apparatus in a state where a child toilet seat 3 is removed. The toilet device has a shower nozzle S,
Apparatus body 1 equipped with functions such as toilet seat warming and hot air blowing
And rotating shafts 2a and 2b supported in the apparatus body 1,
The axis of the rotating shafts 2a, 2b is set to the opening / closing axis A (FIGS. 3, 4).
The toilet seat 4 can be opened and closed.
Here, the apparatus main body 1 is composed of left and right housing portions 1a, 1b.
As shown in FIG. 4, one end of the rotating shaft 2a extends into the intermediate housing 1c of the apparatus main body 1 and is installed in the intermediate housing 1c. Supported by a supporting shaft means 5 (a damper for buffering the opening and closing of the toilet seat is used).

Further, in FIG. 4, the rotating shaft 2a is inserted into a shaft hole 6a of a toilet seat mounting portion 4a formed in the toilet seat 4 and a shaft hole 8a of a bearing portion 3a formed in the child toilet seat 3. Has been engaged in.

On the other hand, the pivot shaft 2b at the other end of the child toilet seat 3 is
As shown in FIGS. 5, 6, 7, and 8, a C-shaped central portion 9 having a shaft hole 8b is formed concentrically with the central portion 9 and a C-shaped guide groove 10 therebetween. The bearing 7 mainly includes the C-shaped outer wall 11. A part of the shaft hole 8b is opened, and extends in the radial direction with respect to the opening / closing axis A. The outer wall 11 also has an opening 12 in the same phase as the radial direction in which the shaft hole 8b is opened. .

The guide groove 10 has a C-shaped ring portion 14 formed in a C-shaped ring shape, which is a main component of the attaching / detaching member 13.
Are fitted. The attachment / detachment member 13 is used when attaching / detaching the child toilet seat 3. The above-mentioned C-shaped ring part 1
4 and a blocking portion 15 extending from the C-shaped ring portion 14. The blocking portion 15 has a function of blocking the removal of the rotating shaft 2b.

Here, the blocking portion 15 of the C-shaped ring portion 14 has a length including the rotating shaft 2b. A knob 16 protrudes from the outer peripheral surface of the C-shaped ring portion 14. A locking claw (not shown) for holding is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the outer frame portion 11 so as to project therefrom. The attachment / detachment member 13 is always held in the bearing portion 7 with a click by the locking claw.

The rotating shafts 2a and 2b project right and left outward with respect to the front of the apparatus main body 1 (in FIG. 2, the rotating shafts 2a and 2c are respectively P and Q from the intermediate housing 1c of the apparatus main body 1). (A state protruding in the direction).

According to the toilet device configured as described above, the rotating shaft 2b is in a state where the child toilet seat 3 is mounted.
Engages with the shaft hole 8 b, and at this time, as shown in FIG. 6, the shaft hole 8 b of the attaching / detaching member 13 and the opening 12 in the outer frame portion 11.
Since the communication with the shaft 2 is interrupted, the rotating shaft 2b stops at the shaft hole 8b. In addition, the attachment / detachment member 13 is prevented from being inadvertently rotated around the opening / closing axis of the attachment / detachment member 13 by the lock claw, so that the child's toilet seat 3 does not come off the rotation shaft 2b due to vibration or the like. I have.

To remove the child toilet seat 3, use the knob 1
6 is rotated in the Y direction in FIG. 6, the engagement of the claw is released, and the force is continuously applied in the same Y direction, so that the attaching / detaching member 13 causes the C-shaped ring portion 14 to slide in the guide groove 10. I do. The opening 12 and the shaft hole 8b are rotated by the rotation of the blocking portion 15.
Communicate with each other (FIGS. 5 and 7). Then, the rotating shaft 2b is extracted along this communication path. Therefore, the child toilet seat 3
Can be removed from the toilet seat 4.

The mounting of the children's toilet seat 3 is carried out by inserting the rotating shaft 2b into the shaft hole 8b through the opening 12 and
4 may be rotated in the X direction in FIG. As a result, the shaft hole 8 and the opening 12 are blocked by the base 14, the detachment of the rotating shaft 2b is prevented, and the child's toilet seat 3 is mounted (FIGS. 6, 8).

FIG. 9 is a front view showing the vicinity of a child toilet seat according to the present invention. Both ends of the child toilet seat 3 are pivot shafts 2 as shown in the figure.
a and the rotating shaft 2b.

As described above, the child toilet seat 3 can be easily attached and detached only by rotating the attachment / detachment member 13 and the child toilet seat 3 can be easily removed. it can.

The present invention is not limited to the attachment / detachment of the child toilet seat 3 by the attachment / detachment member 13 described above. A C-shaped shaft hole 8b is formed in the child toilet seat 3
It may be formed to be narrower than the diameter of b, and may be detached by elastically fitting the rotating shaft 2b and the shaft hole 8b.

As described above, by using the rotating shaft of the toilet lid, the children's toilet seat can be detachably mounted, and can be stored in the same manner as the adult toilet seat. Use on the toilet seat is possible.

FIG. 10 shows a state in which the child toilet seat 3 is removed and the toilet lid F
FIG. In this way, by making the children's toilet seat 3 or the toilet lid F detachable from the rotary shafts 2a and 2b, it is possible to provide a toilet apparatus with a toilet lid specification and a specification without a toilet lid.

Further, the rotating shafts 2a, 2b project right and left outward with respect to the front of the apparatus main body 1 (in FIG. 2, the rotating shafts 2a, 2c are respectively P, Q from the intermediate housing 1c of the apparatus main body 1). State protruding in the direction)
In addition to the effect that the child's toilet seat or the toilet lid F can be easily removed from above, a damper as a buffering means is accommodated in the intermediate housing 1c of the apparatus main body 1;
Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Hei.
There is also an effect that a dead space does not occur between the hinge pins 12 and 12) of −277044 and miniaturization is possible.

[0034]

The effects of the first technical means are as follows.

That is, the present invention provides a toilet, an apparatus main body disposed on the toilet, a pivot shaft rotatably supporting a toilet seat attached to the apparatus main body, and a child toilet seat attached to the pivot axis. Is detachable, the existing toilet lid is removed, and the child's toilet seat can be easily assembled from above using the rotating shaft of the toilet lid.
