Description of the Related Art In recent years, toilets having a washing function, toilets having an indoor heating function or a deodorizing function, and the like have been frequently found in general household toilets. In this type of toilet, various functions can be performed by operating an operation switch arranged on the side of the toilet seat.

However, if the operation switch is disposed on the side of the toilet seat as described above, the display of the operation switch is difficult to see. Therefore, it is necessary to operate the operation switch while checking the display with the head bent. In some cases, he was forced to be cramped, twisting his body. Therefore, recently, a remote control unit having an operation switch for a remote control (hereinafter, referred to as “remote control”) has been used so that the operation switch can be easily operated in an easily visible state.

[0004] Such a remote control unit is directly attached to an inner wall surface of a toilet, or is detachably attached to a holding case fixed to the inner wall surface.

[0005]

However, in addition to such a remote control unit, standing handrails that assist in standing and sitting on the toilet and abnormalities on the body are provided on the inner wall surface of the toilet. Emergency call switch, etc. for notifying that an emergency has occurred may also be installed.If these remote control units, handrails, and emergency call switches are separately installed at different places on the inner wall surface, the mounting work is complicated, In addition, there was a problem that there was no unity and the appearance was bad.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a handrail with an operation switch or an operation switch mounting function that can solve the above-mentioned problems, simplify the mounting work, and improve the appearance. It is assumed that.

[0007]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a handrail according to the present invention is characterized in that operation switches such as a remote control switch and an emergency call switch are integrated in advance. Further, an attachment portion for detachably attaching a unit having an operation switch is provided.

The lower end portion is connected to a front end corner of the hand-held shelf (11) opposite to the inner wall surface (13).

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the hand-held shelf (11) is formed in a hollow substantially rectangular parallelepiped from an upper lid material (15) and a lower lid material (16), and is provided on the toilet (12). A remote control unit (21) for operating the flush toilet seat (20) and an emergency call switch (22) for notifying that an abnormality has occurred in the body are incorporated.

The washing toilet seat (20) has a washing function of washing the buttocks with a water stream spouted from a nozzle, and blowing out hot air after washing to dry the buttocks. The remote control unit (21) includes a box-shaped unit main body (23) having an inclined upper surface, remote control switches (24) (24) arranged on the upper surface of the unit main body (23), and a unit main body (2).
And 3) a drive unit including a wiring board (not shown), a battery, and the like. And the remote control unit
By operating various remote control switches (24) (24) of (21), a cleaning function can be performed in the cleaning toilet seat (20).

The upper lid member (15) has a front end upper surface close to the inner wall surface (13) bulging in a chevron shape, and a rear inclined surface (31) in the bulged portion (30) has a remote control unit ( An opening (32) for fitting the upper surface portion of (21) is formed. A small hole (35) for fitting the emergency call switch (22) is formed on a side surface (34) of the upper lid member (15) opposite to the inner wall surface (13).

A plurality of reinforcing ribs (36) (36) are formed on the lower lid member (16) at an interval in the front-rear direction. Of these reinforcing ribs (36) (36). The front ribs (36) (36) are unit support pieces that abut against the lower surface of the remote control unit (21).

Then, the emergency call switch (22) is
5), and with the upper surface of the remote control unit (21) fitted into the opening (32) of the upper cover material (15), the lower cover material (16) is attached to the lower surface of the remote control unit (21). While pressing the support pieces (36) and (36), lower lid material (16) and upper lid material (15)
By stopping the screws (37) (37), the remote control switches (24) (24) and the emergency call switch (22) can be assembled to the hand-held shelf (11). This hand-held shelf (11) is attached to the bracket (3
