A) and the arm support (41D) of the other armrest (4D) is set shorter than the arm support (41C) of the one armrest (4C) to make it easier to move from the side. An armrest of a toilet bowl is provided (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2-111367).

[0003]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional structure, since the armrest has two support rods in front and back, when the user moves on to the toilet from the side, the front support rod interferes with the use of the armrest. It was difficult for people to transfer.

[0004]

According to the present invention, there is provided an armrest (4A, 4B) attached to both sides of the upper surface of a toilet body (2). 4A) is composed of an arm support (41A) and support rods (42, 42) for supporting the front and rear of the arm support (41A), and the other (4B) is an arm support (41A) of the one armrest (4A). An object of the present invention is to provide a toilet armrest including an arm support (41B) shorter than the arm support (41A) and a single support rod (42) for supporting the arm support (41B).

Further, a backrest (3) is provided on the rear edge of the toilet body (2), and both sides (31, 31) of the backrest (3) are provided.
Preferably, the rear ends of the armrests (4A, 4B) are connected to each other at 31).

[0006]

In the toilet (1) armrest (4A, 4B) of the present invention, the other armrest (4B) is connected to one armrest (4A, 4B).
Arm support (41B) shorter than arm support (41A) in (A)
And a single support rod (42) for supporting the arm support (41B), so that when the user moves to the toilet (1) from the side,
The interference area of the support rod (42) is reduced, and the transfer can be facilitated.

The rear ends of the armrests (4A, 4B) are connected to both sides (31, 31) of a backrest (3) erected on the rear edge of the toilet body (2).
31), the stability of the armrests (4A, 4B) can be improved.
