[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In the conventional toilet seat supporting member lifting / lowering device, the rising speed or the lowering speed is constant from the start to the stop. In such a case, since the inertia force when the toilet seat support member reaches the upper limit or hits the toilet upper surface is large, the impact applied to the device in the toilet seat support member is large. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the impact resistance of each device or its support member.
[0007]
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a toilet facility capable of reducing impact resistance required for a device provided on a toilet seat support member and a support member thereof.
[0008]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
A toilet facility according to the present invention (claim 1) includes a toilet seat support member provided on a toilet body, a toilet seat supported by the toilet seat support member so as to be able to be turned up and down, and an elevating device for lifting and lowering the toilet seat support member. In the equipment, the lifting device lowers the lifting speed at the end of the lifting process as compared to before.
[0009]
In such toilet equipment, the rising speed when the toilet seat supporting member rises and tries to stop can be reduced, and the impact applied to each device or the like can be reduced.
[0010]
A toilet apparatus according to the present invention (claim 2) includes a toilet seat support member provided on a toilet body, a toilet seat supported by the toilet seat support member so as to be capable of falling, and an elevating device for lifting and lowering the toilet seat support member. In the equipment, the lifting device lowers the descent speed at the end of the descent process as compared to before.
[0011]
In such toilet equipment, when the toilet seat support member is lowered, the descent speed at the time of lowering and trying to stop can be reduced, and the impact applied to each device or the like can be reduced.
[0012]
If the descending speed at the end of the descending process is reduced, and cleaning articles are left behind on the upper surface of the toilet body, they can be removed without panic.
[0013]
It is preferable that the end of the ascending step and the end of the descending step both fall within the range of 5 to 30%, particularly 10 to 20% of the elevating distance (stroke) of the toilet seat support member. At the end of the ascending step and the descending step, it is preferable to raise or lower at a speed of 10 to 50%, particularly about 20 to 40% of the ascending speed and the descending speed up to that time.
[0014]
In the toilet equipment of the present invention, by using a stepping motor as the power source of the elevating device, the ascending speed and the descending speed can be arbitrarily adjusted in both the ascending and descending steps.
[0015]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments will be described with reference to the drawings. 1A and 1B are side views of the toilet equipment according to the embodiment, wherein FIG. 1A shows a state before the toilet seat support member floats, and FIG. 1B shows a state after the toilet seat support member floats. FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the toilet equipment, and FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a floating unit.
[0016]
A toilet seat support member 2 is installed on a rear upper surface of a ceramic-made Western-style toilet body 1 so as to be able to move up and down. A toilet seat 3e and a toilet lid 3f are attached to the toilet seat support member 2 so as to be rotatable in a tilting direction.
[0017]
In this embodiment, the toilet seat support member 2 has an outer shell formed by a vertically movable front base plate 3a disposed at the front portion and a bottomless box-shaped synthetic resin cover 3d. On this front base plate 3a, hot water washing nozzles 10 and 11 for washing a human buttocks with hot water and a motor-driven hot water switching valve device 12 are installed. The bottom surface of the front base plate 3a is provided with an illumination 3g for illuminating the lower region S when the toilet seat supporting member 2 floats. An LED is suitable as the illumination 3g, but is not limited thereto.
[0018]
Also, on the front base plate 3a, an electric opening / closing unit 13 for opening and closing the toilet seat 3e and the toilet lid 3f, a hot air fan 14 for blowing hot air toward the buttocks of a human body and drying the same, and odors from the toilet bowl are included. A deodorizing fan 15 and a deodorizing cartridge 16 for sucking air and deodorizing are provided. The cover 3d is provided with human body detection sensors 17 and 18 for detecting a human body approaching or sitting on the toilet body 1.
[0019]
A rear base plate 4a is provided on the rearmost upper surface of the toilet body 1 so that the rear side of the cover 3d covers from above. The rear base plate 4a has a heater-equipped hot water tank 4b (shown only in FIG. 1) for supplying hot water to the hot water washing nozzle, and a motor-driven floating unit for pushing up and down the toilet seat support member 2. 20, a room heating fan 21 including a heater and an electric fan, a power supply board 22, a control circuit board 23, a valve unit 24 for supplying water to a toilet bowl and a trap section, and the like are provided.
[0020]
As shown in FIG. 3, the levitation unit 20 includes a stepping motor 30, a pinion 31 fixed to a rotation shaft of the stepping motor 30, and a rack 32 in which the pinion 31 meshes. The stepping motor 30 is fixed to the front base plate 3a. A frame 33 of the floating unit 20 is erected from the rear base plate 4a, and a rack 32 is fixed to the frame 33. Although not shown, the frame 33 is provided with a pair of rails extending in the vertical direction, and a slider provided on the front base plate 3a is movable along the rails. When the stepping motor 30 rotates forward or backward, the front base plate 3a moves up or down.
[0021]
The hot water washing mechanism and the like are operated by a remote controller mounted on the wall of the toilet room. The remote control is provided with a levitation switch for causing the levitation unit 20 to perform a levitation operation, and a descent switch for causing the levitation unit 20 to perform a lowering operation. The signals from the levitation switch and the down switch are input to a levitation unit control circuit provided on the control circuit board 23.
[0022]
When the levitation switch is operated, the levitation unit 20 pushes up the front base plate 3a of the toilet seat support member 2 to a predetermined height and stops at that state. When the toilet seat supporting member 2 is raised, the illumination 3g is turned on. This illuminates the lower space (lower region) S at the front of the raised toilet seat support member 2. Since the lower region S is brightly illuminated in this manner, the upper surface of the toilet body facing the lower region S, the lower surface of the front base plate 3a, and the like can be easily cleaned.
[0023]
When the lowering switch is operated, the floating unit 20 operates to lower the front base plate 3a.
[0024]
In this embodiment, the lifting speed of the toilet seat support member 2 is set to be lower at the end of the lifting process, and the descent speed is set to be lower at the end of the lowering process. . That is, the control circuit for the levitation unit is provided with a counter that counts the number of pulses given to the stepping motor 30 from the start of rising and the start of lowering of the front base plate 3a, and the current position of the front base plate 3a is accurately detected. I have. At the end of the ascending step and the end of the descending step, the interval between pulses applied to the stepping motor 30 becomes longer, the rotation of the stepping motor 30 becomes slower, and the ascending and descending speeds of the front base plate 3a are smaller than before. Become.
[0025]
For this reason, at the moment when the front base plate 3a reaches the upper limit and stops, and at the moment when the front base plate 3a falls on the Western-style toilet body 1 and stops, the impact applied to each component of the toilet seat support member 2 is reduced, The impact resistance required for each of these components and their mounting portions is reduced. Further, since the toilet seat support member 2 is decelerated at the end of the lowering step, even if a rag or the like is left on the Western-style toilet body 1, it can be removed without panic.
[0026]
The rising speed and the falling speed of the front base plate 3a may be changed stepwise or may be changed continuously.
[0027]
In the above embodiment, the levitation unit 20 having the stepping motor 30 is employed, and the ascending speed and the descending speed of the front base plate 3a are controlled by controlling the rotation speed of the stepping motor 30, but the present invention has other configurations. May be employed.
[0028]
Hereinafter, another configuration of the floating unit will be described.
[0029]
FIG. 4 is a perspective view of a floating unit 20A that employs a cam as a transmission mechanism. FIGS. 5A and 5B show VV of FIG. 4 before the toilet seat support member floats and at the end of the lifting process, respectively. It is a line sectional view.
[0030]
The floating unit 20A includes a cam 40, a motor 41 for rotating the cam 40, and a sliding member 42 that slidably contacts the cam surfaces 40a to 40c of the cam 40. The motor 41 is fixed on a rear base plate 4a arranged on the rear upper surface of the toilet body 1. The sliding member 42 is fixed to the front base plate 3a of the toilet seat support member 2 (not shown in FIGS. 4 and 5). The front base plate 3a is provided with an opening 43 through which the cam 40 enters the cover 3d (not shown in FIGS. 4 and 5) of the toilet seat support member 2.
[0031]
The cam 40 has a substantially elliptical disk shape as shown in FIG. That is, the cam 40 has arc-shaped cam surfaces 40a and 40b on both sides in the longitudinal direction of the board surface, and a cam surface 40c connecting these is smoothly connected to both ends of the cam surfaces 40a and 40b. It has a substantially flat surface.
[0032]
The rotation shaft 41a of the motor 41 is disposed on the longitudinal axis of the cam surface and fixed to the cam 40 so as to be perpendicular to the surface of the cam 40 at a position close to the cam surface 40a. When a floating switch and a descending switch of a remote controller (not shown) are operated, the motor 41 is energized to rotate the rotating shaft 41a in the forward and reverse directions at a constant speed, thereby driving the cam 40 to rotate.
[0033]
The sliding body 42 is disposed so as to abut the cam surfaces 40 a to 40 c of the cam 40 across the opening 43. In this embodiment, the sliding body 42 is a round bar-shaped member. The sliding body 42 extends so that its axial direction is parallel to the axial direction of the rotating shaft 41a of the motor 41, and contacts the cam surfaces 40a to 40c vertically above the rotating shaft 41a. . Both ends of the sliding member 42 are fixed to a pair of leg-like members 44 erected from the front base plate 3a so as to face each other with the opening 43 therebetween.
[0034]
Although not shown, a rail member is provided upright from the rear base plate 4a, and a slider engaged with the rail member is provided on the front base plate 3a. The slider is vertically slidable along the rail member, and the front base plate 3a is vertically moved in parallel by being guided by the rail member and the slider.
[0035]
In addition, when the front base plate 3a is located at the upper limit and at the lower limit, that is, as described later, the cam 40 is positioned on the front base plate 3a such that its longitudinal axis is oriented vertically. A limit switch (not shown) is provided to detect when the longitudinal direction becomes horizontal or when the longitudinal axis is oriented in the lateral direction. The motor 41 stops operating in response to the detection signal from the limit switch.
[0036]
Other configurations of the toilet equipment of FIGS. 4 and 5 are the same as those of FIGS.
[0037]
When the front base plate 3a is lowered to the lower limit, as shown in FIG. 5A, the cam 40 is in a posture in which the longitudinal axis is oriented in the horizontal direction, and the sliding body 42 is placed on the cam surface 40a. Abut.
[0038]
When the levitation switch is operated, the motor 41 is operated, and the cam 40 rotates so that the longitudinal axis changes from the horizontal orientation to the vertical orientation. By the rotation of the cam 40, the front base plate 3a is pushed up via the sliding body 42, and the toilet seat supporting member 2 floats. When the cam 40 rotates until the longitudinal axis becomes vertical, and the front base plate 3a reaches the upper limit, the limit switch detects this and the motor 41 stops operating, and the toilet seat support member 2 It is supported in a floating state by the cam 40.
[0039]
In the lifting process of the toilet seat support member 2, when the cam 40 rotates, the sliding body 42 starts moving upward so as to slide along the cam surface 40a. The cam surface 40a has an arc shape, and the distance from the rotation shaft 41a does not change so much before reaching the cam surface 40c, so that the sliding body 42 starts to rise smoothly. Since the cam surface 40c is a substantially flat surface, and the distance from the rotation shaft 41a increases greatly as the cam surface 40c approaches the cam surface 40b, the sliding body 42 moves upward at a relatively high speed when sliding along the cam surface 40c. Moving. Further, the cam surface 40b is formed in an arc shape, and the amount of change in the distance from the rotation shaft 41a decreases as the position approaches the middle, so that when the sliding body 42 reaches the cam surface 40c, it moves upward. Speed is lower than before. Therefore, the lifting speed of the toilet seat supporting member 2 is also lower at the end of the lifting process than before.
[0040]
When the down switch is operated, the motor 41 rotates in the reverse direction, and the cam 40 rotates so that the longitudinal axis thereof is changed from the vertical orientation to the horizontal orientation. When the cam 40 rotates until the longitudinal axis becomes horizontal, the front base plate 3a reaches the lowering limit, the limit switch detects this, the motor 41 stops operating, and the lowering of the toilet seat support member 2 also stops.
[0041]
In the lowering step of the toilet seat supporting member 2, when the cam 40 rotates, the sliding body 42 starts moving downward so as to slide along the cam surface 40b. Since the cam surface 40b has an arc shape, the sliding body 42 starts to descend smoothly. Since the cam surface 40c is a substantially flat surface, and the distance from the rotation shaft 41a is greatly reduced as the cam surface 40c approaches the cam surface 40a, the sliding body 42 moves downward at a relatively high speed when sliding along the cam surface 40c. Moving. Further, since the cam surface 40a has an arc shape, when the sliding body 42 reaches the cam surface 40a, the moving speed of the sliding body 42 downward becomes lower than before. Therefore, the lowering speed of the toilet seat support member 2 is also lower at the end of the lowering process than before.
[0042]
FIGS. 6 and 7 are plan views of the floating unit 20B employing the belt-type continuously variable transmission. FIGS. 8 and 9 are taken along lines VIII-VIII and IX-IX of FIGS. 6 and 7, respectively. It is sectional drawing. 6 and 8 show the final stage of the toilet seat supporting member lowering process, and FIGS. 7 and 9 show an intermediate time point of the lowering process.
[0043]
The floating unit 20B includes a conical pulley 50, a motor 51 for rotating and driving the conical pulley 50, and a movable pedestal 52 slidable on the front base plate 3a in the direction of the axis of rotation of the conical pulley 50. A cylinder device 53 for moving the movable pedestal 52 in the direction of the axis of rotation of the conical pulley 50; an endless belt 54 for transmitting driving force wound around the conical pulley 50; And a rack 56 with which the pinion 55 meshes. The conical pulley 50 is coaxially connected to the rotating shaft 51a with its tip pointed in the extending direction of the rotating shaft 51a of the motor 51. The motor 51 is fixed on a movable base 52. The rack 56 is erected from the rear base plate 4a, and enters the cover 3d (not shown) of the toilet seat support member 2 from the opening 57 provided in the front base plate 3a.
[0044]
On the front base plate 3a, a pair of rails 58 extending in the direction of the axis of rotation of the conical pulley 50 is provided. A slider 59 slidably engaged with the rail 58 is provided on the lower surface of the movable pedestal 52, and the movable pedestal 52 is guided by the slider 59 and the rail 58 so that the movable pedestal 52 is rotated by the rotating shaft of the conical pulley 50. Slide in the direction of the cord.
[0045]
The rear end of the movable pedestal 52 (the end in the direction of the axis of rotation of the conical pulley 50 and in the direction in which the conical pulley 50 has a large diameter) is attached to the piston rod 53a of the cylinder device 53. The tip is connected. A cylinder 53b for moving the piston rod 53a forward and backward is fixed on the front base plate 3a.
[0046]
The endless belt 54 is disposed so as to go around the outer peripheral surface of the conical pulley 50 and the relay pulley 61 having a common rotation shaft 60 with the pinion 55. The pinion 55 is rotatable integrally with the relay pulley 61 via the rotation shaft 60. The rotating shaft 60 is pivotally supported by a bearing 62 erected on the front base plate 3a.
[0047]
As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the tension of the endless belt 54 and the reciprocation of the conical pulley 50 in the direction of the rotational axis of the conical pulley 50 cause the conical pulley 50 to move from a straight line passing through the outer periphery of the relay pulley 61. A guide roller 63 is engaged with the endless belt 54 in order to prevent the endless belt 54 from moving toward the pointed end. Due to the guide rollers 63, when the conical pulley 50 advances to the pointed end thereof together with the movable base 52, the endless belt 54 moves from the straight line passing through the outer periphery of the relay pulley 61 to the pointed end of the conical pulley 50. As shown in FIG. 7, the endless belt 54 relatively moves toward the large-diameter side of the conical pulley 50 and is held in that state.
[0048]
When a floating switch and a lowering switch of a remote controller (not shown) are operated, the motor 51 is energized to rotate the rotating shaft 51a in the forward and reverse directions at a constant speed, and the conical pulley 50, the endless belt 54, and the relay pulley The pinion 55 is rotationally driven via 61. As the pinion 55 rolls up or down along the rack 56 by the driving force from the motor 51, the front base plate 3a moves up or down.
[0049]
The front base plate 3a is provided with a limit switch (not shown) for detecting that the front base plate 3a is located at the upper limit and the lower limit. The motor 51 stops operating in response to the detection signal from the limit switch.
[0050]
Further, the front base plate 3a is provided with a position detection sensor (not shown) for detecting that the front base plate 3a is approaching the end of the ascending step and the end of the descending step. This position detection sensor detects, for example, that the front base plate 3a has passed a position 10-20% below its stroke from the ascending limit and has passed a position 10-20% above its stroke from its descending limit. The detection signal is output to the cylinder device 53 (or its control circuit).
[0051]
In other words, the position detection sensor detects when the front base plate 3a has passed a position 10 to 20% below its stroke from the ascending limit and from its descending stroke in the ascending and descending steps of the front base plate 3a, respectively. A position detection signal is output to the cylinder device 53 twice when passing the position 10 to 20% higher.
[0052]
The cylinder device 53 moves the piston rod 53a forward and backward in response to the detection signal from the position detection sensor.
[0053]
When the front base plate 3a is located at the lower limit, as shown in FIG. 6, the piston rod 53a of the cylinder device 53 is retracted to the cylinder 53b, and the movable base 52 is also at the retracted position. In this state, the endless belt 54 is disposed so as to orbit around the small-diameter outer periphery at the pointed end of the conical pulley 50, and the reduction ratio of the conical pulley 50 and the pinion 55 interlocked by the endless belt 54 is It is relatively large.
[0054]
When the levitating switch of the remote controller is operated, the motor 51 operates to rotate the pinion 55. At this time, the reduction ratio between the conical pulley 50 and the pinion 55 is large, and the pinion 55 is rotationally driven with high torque by the motor 51, so that the front base plate 3a starts to rise smoothly.
[0055]
When the front base plate 3a passes through a position 10 to 20% of its stroke from the lower limit and the first detection signal is output from the position detection sensor, the cylinder device 53 operates and the piston rod 53a projects from the cylinder 53b. , The movable pedestal 52 moves forward. As the movable pedestal 52 advances, the conical pulley 50 also advances toward the pointed end thereof, and the endless belt 54 relatively moves to the rear end side of the conical pulley 50 having a larger diameter. Thus, the reduction ratio between the conical pulley 50 and the pinion 55 becomes smaller than before, and the pinion 55 rotates at a higher speed. For this reason, in the middle of the lifting process, the lifting speed of the toilet seat support member 2 becomes higher than before.
[0056]
When the front base plate 3a continues to ascend and passes a position 10 to 20% below its stroke from the ascending limit and the position detection sensor outputs a second position detection signal, the cylinder device 53 moves the piston rod 53a to the cylinder. The movable pedestal 52 is retracted to the position 53b. Due to the retreat of the movable pedestal 52, the endless belt 54 relatively moves along the outer peripheral surface of the conical pulley 50 toward the pointed end thereof. Thus, the reduction ratio between the conical pulley 50 and the pinion 55 increases again, and the rotation speed of the pinion 55 decreases. Therefore, at the end of the lifting process of the toilet seat support member 2, the lifting speed of the toilet seat support member 2 becomes lower than before.
[0057]
Thereafter, when the front base plate 3a reaches the upper limit, the limit switch detects this, the motor 51 stops, and the front base plate 3a also stops in that state.
[0058]
When the down switch of the remote control is operated, the motor 51 operates in the reverse direction, and the front base plate 3a starts to descend. When the front base plate 3a passes through a position 10 to 20% below its stroke from the ascending limit and the first position detection signal in the descending step is output from the position detection sensor, the cylinder device 53 moves the piston rod 53a to the cylinder. Project from 53b. The movable pedestal 52 advances due to the projection of the piston rod 53a, and the endless belt 54 relatively moves to the rear end side of the conical pulley 50, so that the reduction ratio between the conical pulley 50 and the pinion 55 becomes smaller than before. , The pinion 55 rotates at a higher speed. For this reason, the lowering speed of the toilet seat support member 2 becomes higher during the lowering process than before.
[0059]
When the front base plate 3a continues to descend and passes a position 10 to 20% of its stroke from the lower limit, and the position detection sensor outputs the second position detection signal in the lowering step, the cylinder device 53 is moved to the piston rod. When the movable pedestal 52 retreats with the cylinder 53b retreating, the endless belt 54 relatively moves toward the pointed end of the conical pulley 50, and the reduction ratio between the conical pulley 50 and the pinion 55 is reduced. Becomes larger again, and the rotation speed of the pinion 55 decreases. Therefore, at the end of the lowering step of the toilet seat support member 2, the lowering speed of the toilet seat support member 2 becomes lower than before.
[0060]
Thereafter, when the front base plate 3a reaches the lower limit, the limit switch detects this, the motor 51 stops, and the front base plate 3a also stops in that state.
[0061]
As described above, even in the floating unit 20A shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 and the floating unit 20B shown in FIGS. 6 to 9, the lifting speed at the end of the lifting process of the toilet seat supporting member 2 is made smaller than before, and At the end of the descending process, the descending speed is configured to be smaller than before, and at the moment when the front base plate 3a reaches the ascending limit and stops, and at the moment when the front base plate 3a descends onto the Western-style toilet body 1 and stops. Thus, the impact applied to each component of the toilet seat support member 2 is reduced, and the impact resistance required for each of these components and their mounting portions is reduced. Further, since the toilet seat supporting member 2 is decelerated at the end of the lowering process, even if a rag or the like is left on the Western-style toilet body 1, it can be removed without panic.
[0062]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to reduce the impact resistance required for devices provided on the toilet seat support member and the support members thereof.
