Description

  The present invention relates to an arrangement structure in a toilet of a hand-washer with a mirror that can be suitably applied to a relatively small toilet room.

  Conventionally, a hand-washer with a mirror provided in a toilet room is known (see, for example, Patent Document 1). Such a conventional hand-washing machine with a mirror may be disposed in a relatively narrow toilet room having a rectangular shape in a top view with a width of about 800 mm and a depth of about 1200 mm, for example. And as shown in FIG. 4, such a hand-washing machine with a mirror has two wall parts (this corner part in the corner part on the opposite side to the toilet bowl provided by being biased to one side in the longitudinal direction in the toilet room ( The side wall 110 and the end wall 120) may be provided obliquely.

  According to such an arrangement structure of the hand-washing machine 50 with a mirror, a dead space 101 having a triangular top view is generated between the back surface of the hand-washing machine 50 with a mirror and a corner portion of the toilet room 100, and the inside of the toilet room is limited. It becomes impossible to effectively use the space.

In order to prevent such inconvenience, an arrangement structure in which a hand-washer 60 with a mirror as shown in FIG. 5 is installed along the side wall 110 near the end opposite to the toilet 150 of the side wall 110 forming the longitudinal direction of the toilet room 100. Is also considered.
JP 2000-160658 A (page 5-6, FIG. 4)

  In the arrangement structure in which the hand-washer 60 with a mirror as shown in FIG. 5 is installed along the side wall 110 in the vicinity of the end opposite to the toilet 150 of the side wall 110 forming the longitudinal direction of the toilet room 100, the toilet room 100 is relatively If it is narrow, if the width of the hand-washer 60 with a mirror is widened, the knee of the user seated on the toilet 150 will hit the hand-washer 60 with a mirror and the usability will be poor (see the dotted line in FIG. 5).

  For this reason, as shown in the solid line of FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, for example, a hand-washer 70 with a mirror having a width narrower than the shoulder width of the user is installed on the side wall 110, and the knee of the user sitting on the toilet 150 is attached to the mirror. Although it is conceivable to prevent interference with the hand-washing machine 70, if a narrow hand-washing machine 70 with a mirror is arranged at such a position, for example, when a user uses his hand-washing machine 70 with a mirror to wash his / her hands, As shown in FIG. 7, it is necessary to wash the hands by moving the upper body toward the toilet so that one shoulder does not hit the end wall 120 (see circle C indicated by a dotted line in FIG. 7).

  The mirror 72 is provided in the hand-washer 70 with a mirror so that the entire back surface of the mirror 72 is in contact with the side wall 110 of the toilet room 100. When confirming his / her face and neck, his / her face and neck are not reflected in the mirror 72, making it difficult to see. In order to see his / her face and neck with the mirror 72, the user has to shift his / her upper body to the end wall 120 of the toilet room 100 on the opposite side of the toilet 150, so that one shoulder (see FIG. 7 on the right shoulder) collides with the end wall 120 of the toilet room 100, which causes discomfort.

  On the other hand, when the mirror-equipped hand-washer 50 is provided obliquely at the corner portion described above (see FIG. 4), there is no inconvenience that the user's shoulder as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 hits the end wall 120 of the toilet room 100. However, in addition to the problem of the dead space 101 in the toilet room, the following problem occurs.

  Specifically, for example, in an apartment house or a store, a door 130 for entering and exiting the toilet room 100 is provided on the end wall 120 opposite to the toilet 150 in the toilet room 100 because of restrictions on the arrangement of the toilet room. In some cases (see FIG. 8). In this case, if the hand-washer 50 with a mirror is provided obliquely at the corner of the toilet room 100, the width of the door 130 for entering and exiting the toilet room 100 becomes narrower (see width B in FIG. 8). There is also a problem that it becomes difficult to enter and exit.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a mirror-equipped hand-washer arrangement structure in a toilet that can be suitably applied to a relatively small toilet room.

In order to solve the above-described problems, the arrangement structure of the toilet with a mirror according to the present invention is as follows.
A toilet is placed on one side in the longitudinal direction of the toilet room, which has a substantially rectangular shape when viewed from above, and a hand-washing machine is installed near the corner opposite the toilet, and the width of the hand-washing machine is approximately the same as the width of the hand-washing machine. In the toilet arrangement of a hand-washer with a mirror equipped with a mirror having a width smaller than that,
The hand-washing machine has a width narrower than the shoulder width of the toilet user, and is disposed along the vicinity of the end of the toilet room on the side opposite to the toilet bowl, and disposed above the hand-washing machine. Is inclined toward the toilet room space on the toilet side with respect to the side wall.

  Since the hand-washing device of the mirror-equipped hand-washing device is disposed along the side wall in the vicinity of the corner portion on the opposite side of the toilet room of the toilet room, there is no need to create a dead space in the toilet room.

  In addition to this, a wide space in the width direction of the toilet room can be secured. Moreover, since the hand-washing machine is narrower than the user's shoulder width, the user's knee does not hit the hand-washing machine while the user is sitting on the toilet bowl. In addition, since only the mirror of the hand-washer with a mirror is inclined toward the toilet room space on the toilet side, even if a narrow hand-washer is placed in such a position, the end wall on the opposite side of the toilet room from the toilet room It is possible to easily view a narrow mirror without forcibly pressing one shoulder.

  In other words, in order to effectively use a narrow toilet, the width of the hand-washer is limited in order to secure a space in the depth direction of the toilet room, and the orientation of the hand-washer is set in order to secure a space in the width direction of the toilet room. Problems caused by the limitation can be solved by tilting the mirror of the hand-washing machine with a mirror in this way.

Moreover, the arrangement | positioning structure in the toilet of the hand-washing machine with a mirror of Claim 2 of this invention is the arrangement | positioning structure in the toilet of the hand-washing machine with a mirror of Claim 1,
The mirror of the hand-washer with a mirror is provided in the hand-washer so that the angle can be adjusted with respect to the toilet room space on the toilet bowl side.

  By making the angle of the mirror of the hand-washing machine with a mirror in this way, the user can adjust the mirror to an optimum angle, and the usability of the hand-washing machine with a mirror can be further improved.

Moreover, the arrangement | positioning structure in the toilet of the hand-washing machine with a mirror of Claim 3 of this invention is the arrangement | positioning structure in the toilet of the hand-washing machine with a mirror of Claim 1 or Claim 2,
The mirror is provided so as to correspond to a part in the width direction of the hand-washing machine with a mirror, and a towel rack is provided so as to correspond to the remaining part in the width direction of the hand-washing machine with a mirror.

  In this way, the towel rack is arranged in the mirror in the width direction of the mirror-equipped hand-washer, so that the towel rack can be placed in a position where water does not drain on the hand-washer, and in combination with a mirror that makes the user's face easy to see, The convenience of the vessel can be further improved.

  According to the present invention, in a relatively small toilet room, even if a small hand-washing machine is installed in order to secure a space in the width direction and depth direction of the toilet room, the hand-washing machine with a mirror that allows the user's face to be easily seen when washing hands The toilet arrangement structure can be provided.

  Hereinafter, an arrangement structure in a toilet of a hand-washing machine with a mirror according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Here, FIG. 1 is a schematic plan view showing the arrangement structure in the toilet of the hand-washing device with a mirror according to one embodiment of the present invention. 2 is a schematic plan view showing a state in which the door 140 for entering and exiting the toilet room 100 is provided on the end wall 120 on the opposite side to the toilet bowl 150 of the toilet room 100 shown in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 1, in the toilet arrangement structure of the hand-washer with a mirror according to one embodiment of the present invention, a toilet bowl 150 is arranged on one side in the longitudinal direction of the toilet room 100 that is rectangular in top view. The hand-washing device 10 with a mirror is disposed in the vicinity of the end of the side wall 110 opposite to the toilet 150 on the longitudinal side wall 110. The mirror-equipped hand-washing machine 10 includes a hand-washing machine 11 made of, for example, a hand-washing bowl made of earthenware, and a mirror 12 provided on the upper part of the hand-washing machine 11 and having the same width as the hand-washing machine 11. The hand-washing machine 11 has a width that is narrower than the shoulder width of the user, and is arranged so that the entire back surface of the hand-washing machine 11 is in contact with the side wall 110. Further, the mirror 12 provided in the hand-washing machine 11 is provided in the hand-washing machine 11 in a state of being slightly inclined with respect to the side wall 110 toward the toilet room space on the toilet bowl side.

  Since the hand-washing machine 10 with a mirror according to the present embodiment is arranged in the toilet room 100 as described above, the following effects are produced. Since the hand-washing device 11 of the mirror-equipped hand-washing device 10 is arranged along the side wall 110 in the vicinity of the corner portion opposite to the toilet bowl 150 of the toilet room 100, two wall portions (side walls) forming a conventional corner portion are arranged. 110 and the end wall 120), as in the case where the mirror-equipped hand-washing machine 50 is provided at an angle, a dead space 101 having a triangular top view is formed between the back surface of the hand-washing machine 50 with the mirror and the corner of the toilet room. You can effectively use the space in the toilet room.

  Moreover, since the hand-washing machine 11 is narrower than the user's shoulder width, the knee does not hit the hand-washing machine 11 while the user is seated on the toilet bowl 150. Further, since only the mirror 12 of the mirror-equipped hand-washing machine 10 is slightly inclined toward the toilet room space on the toilet bowl side, the user can use the toilet room 100 even if the hand-washing machine 11 having a narrow width is arranged in such a position. Without forcibly pressing one shoulder against the end wall 120 on the opposite side of the toilet 150, it is possible to repair the narrow mirror 12 while looking at it easily.

  In addition to this, for example, as shown in FIG. 2, when the door 140 for entering and exiting the toilet room 100 is provided on the end wall 120 opposite to the toilet 150 in the toilet room 100, a conventional corner portion 2 is formed. Compared to the case where the mirror-equipped hand-washing machine 50 is provided obliquely with respect to the two wall portions (the side wall 110 and the end wall 120) (see FIG. 8), the flow line of the person entering and exiting the toilet room 100 is shown in the hand-washing machine 10 with the mirror. Will not interfere. This makes it possible to increase the width of the door 140 for entering and exiting the toilet room 100 (see width A in FIG. 2), making it easy to enter and exit the toilet room 100.

  In addition, instead of making the mirror 12 of the hand-washing machine 10 with a mirror fixed, it may be attached to the hand-washing machine 11 so that the angle with respect to the side wall 110 can be adjusted using an appropriate hinge means or the like. Thereby, it becomes possible to change the angle according to the difference in the user's physique and make it easy to use. In this case, for example, the mirror angle can be appropriately adjusted between the girls' toilet and the men's toilet. That is, the shoulder of the user does not interfere with the end wall 120 of the toilet room 100 even if the mirror is tilted slightly in the girls' toilet, but the user's It is possible to prevent the shoulder from interfering with the end wall 120 of the toilet room 100.

  Moreover, the width | variety of the mirror 12 is not limited to being equivalent to the hand-washing machine 11 like this embodiment, You may narrower than this.

  Then, the modification of the arrangement | positioning structure in the toilet of the hand-washing machine with a mirror concerning embodiment mentioned above is demonstrated. Here, FIG. 3 is a schematic plan view showing the arrangement structure in the toilet of the hand-washing machine with a mirror according to a modification of the present invention. In addition, about the structure equivalent to embodiment mentioned above, corresponding code | symbol is attached | subjected and detailed description is abbreviate | omitted.

Since there is no such thing, the width of the door 140 for entering and exiting the toilet room 100 can be increased, and the entrance and exit to the toilet room 100 can be facilitated.

  In addition, in this modified example, in addition to such an action, a towel rack 23 can be disposed at a position where water does not run out on the handwasher, and in combination with a mirror 22 that is easy to see the user's face, the usability of the handwasher 20 with a mirror can be improved. Can be improved.

  In this modified example, the mirror 22 of the hand-washing machine 20 with a mirror is attached to the hand-washing machine 21 so that the angle of the hand-washing machine 21 can be adjusted by using an appropriate hinge means or the like, instead of being fixed. May be. Thereby, it is possible to make the hand-washer with a mirror 20 easier to use by changing the angle according to the difference in the physique of the user.

  Further, in this modification, the mirror 22 is provided on the half opposite to the toilet 150 in the width direction of the mirror-equipped hand-washing machine 20, and the towel rack 23 is provided on the remaining portion in the width direction, that is, on the toilet side. It may be. That is, a mirror may be provided on the width direction toilet side half of the hand-washer with a mirror, and a towel rack may be provided on the other side in the width direction, that is, on the opposite side of the toilet bowl. Even in this case, it is sufficiently possible to exhibit the action described in this modification.

  In the above-described embodiment, the mirror 12 is integrally provided on the upper part of the hand-washing machine 11, but the present invention is not necessarily limited to this structure, and the hand-washing machine and the mirror are separated and configured separately. The mirror may be disposed on the side wall of the toilet room so as to correspond to the above-described embodiment above the hand-washing machine.

  In the modification of the above-described embodiment, the mirror 22 and the towel rack 23 are integrally provided on the upper part of the hand-washing machine 21, but in this case, the mirror and the towel rack are separated from the hand-washing machine. It may be configured as a separate body and the mirror and towel rack may be arranged on the side wall of the toilet room so as to correspond to the above-mentioned modification, the towel rack is provided in the hand-washer, and the mirror is hand-washed It may be configured separately from the bowl and disposed on the side wall of the toilet room so as to correspond to the above-described modification above the hand-washing bowl.
