Description

  The present invention focuses on the vanity that is the object of use, with the limbs exposed most frequently and with the limbs exposed, standing up in front of the vanity, and performing washing, brushing, makeup, etc. In doing so, the present invention relates to a proposal for a vanity that recognizes basic health conditions, typically changes in body weight and body fat, and contributes to health management.

  In many cases, the health management is based on the measurement by the doctor and the medical examination, and the daily physical changes are ticked by yourself. It was cumbersome to take out and install the fat meter to measure and confirm.

  A computer having a communication function in which a health measuring device that measures the characteristics of a body part that reflects a user's health condition is installed in a use space of a house that the user uses in daily life, and measurement data of the health measuring device is transmitted and output An apparatus is arranged in the use space, and the computer accumulates data transmitted from the health measuring device in time series, and outputs the measurement data for self-health check when the user is using the use space. A daily health management system has been proposed (for example, Patent Document 1).

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-83055

  However, for ordinary residents who are not conscious of any disease on a daily basis, the handling is cumbersome and they are often left without being used efficiently. The rate was low, making it unsuitable for permanent use as a daily health management system.

  However, in the bathroom, it is always possible to observe the face color, skin condition, eye condition, oral cavity condition, etc. when washing, brushing teeth, etc. The condition is met.

  Incorporating a weight scale and body fat scale into such a vanity and using its measurement index as an element of health management makes it possible to measure relatively comfortably from the standpoint of installation space called a vanity. Since the measured value is an index that can easily be used for health care by a person concerned, a proposal for a vanity on which a scale, a body fat scale and the like can be easily installed has been demanded.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the present invention is installed on the floor surface in front of the vanity, or drawn and installed on the floor surface in front of the vanity from the vanity. A bathroom vanity equipped with a weight scale and a body fat scale provided with a measuring section, wherein the weight and body fat value display sections of the weight scale and body fat scale are provided on the mirror section of the bathroom vanity table. It is a vanity characterized by that.

  In the vanity configured as described above, when making the vanity by leaning forward of the vanity, the weight and body fat can be measured in the same manner, and the measurement results are relatively compared. It can be confirmed on the display unit provided on the easy-to-view makeup mirror, and unlike conventional floor-type weight scales or body fat scales, the measurement results can be confirmed easily and reliably.

  In addition, only the body weight and body fat measurement part of the scale and body fat scale are installed in front of the vanity, or pulled out from the vanity to this section as needed and used. Therefore, it does not interfere with the toilet makeup operation, and does not impair the design around the toilet vanity.

  Further, in the vanity according to the above configuration, the display unit is provided so that the display surface of the liquid crystal display is in close contact with the back surface of the reflective layer that constitutes the half mirror unit that forms part of the mirror unit. In the vanity table, which is characterized by the fact that the measurement result obtained with the weight scale and the body fat scale can be displayed on the mirror part that functions as a vanity mirror, The measurement result can be displayed and confirmed at the most visible position without impairing the design characteristics.

  The bathroom vanity according to the present invention can constitute a bathroom vanity equipped with a scale and a body fat scale without impairing the functionality and design of the bathroom vanity, is easy to use, and has the weight necessary for maintaining health care. Provided is a vanity that can easily measure and confirm the value and body fat value.

  Hereinafter, based on FIGS. 1-4, the vanity A which concerns on the best form for implementing this invention is demonstrated.

  Here, FIG. 1 shows a vanity A according to the best mode for carrying out the present invention as seen from the front, FIG. 2 shows a cutaway view of the main part, and FIG. FIG. 4 shows the main part of the mirror part 31 in an enlarged cross-sectional view as seen from the side.

  The vanity table A according to the best mode for carrying out the present invention is installed on the floor surface B in front of the vanity table A, or the floor surface in front of the vanity table A from the vanity table A. B is a bathroom vanity A provided with a weight scale and a body fat scale having a body weight and body fat measurement unit 60 drawn out and installed on B. Display of the weight value and body fat value of the weight scale and body fat scale The part 50 is provided in the mirror part 31 of the bathroom vanity A.

  The bathroom vanity A provided with the weight scale and the body fat scale has any form of the bathroom vanity A as long as it includes the vanity ball portion 21 used in the so-called vanity makeup on the counter 20 and the makeup mirror 31. It may be.

  The weight scale and the body fat scale used here are installed by pulling the weight and body fat measuring unit 60 on the floor surface B in front of the bathroom vanity A or on the floor in front of the bathroom vanity A. As long as it is installed on the surface B and the display unit 50 is provided in the mirror unit 31, any form of weight scale or any form of body fat scale may be used. .

  In the bathroom vanity A constructed in this way, when making the bathroom makeup in front of the bathroom vanity A, the body weight and body fat can be measured in the same manner, and the measurement result is It can be confirmed with the display unit 50 provided in the makeup mirror 31 which is relatively easy to see, and unlike conventional floor-type weight scales, body fat scales, etc., confirmation of measurement results is easy and reliable. .

  In addition, only the weight and body fat measurement unit 60 in the weight scale and body fat scale are installed in front of the bathroom vanity A, or pulled out from the bathroom vanity A to this part as necessary, Since it is used, it does not hinder the toilet makeup operation and does not impair the design around the toilet vanity.

  Further, in the bathroom vanity A according to the above-described configuration, the display unit 50 forms a display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display 51, and a reflective layer 31b ′ that forms a half mirror unit 31 ′ that forms part of the mirror unit 31. In the bathroom vanity A, which is provided so as to be in close contact with the back of the body, the measurement result obtained by the weight scale and the body fat scale is usually displayed on the mirror unit 31 functioning as a makeup mirror. The measurement result can be displayed and confirmed at the most visible position without impairing the functional and design characteristics of the vanity A.

  When viewed from the front side of the vanity A, the reflective layer 31b ′ constituting the half mirror portion 31 ′ is reflected by the reflective layer 31b ′ and functions as a normal mirror, and this reflective layer 31b ′. The liquid crystal display panel of the liquid crystal display 51 is installed on the back side of the reflective layer 31b ′ so as to face the reflective layer 31b ′. Thus, the measurement result value displayed on the display unit 50 can be easily and reliably visually recognized from the front side of the bathroom vanity A.

  Next, the bathroom vanity A according to the illustrated example will be described in detail.

  The bathroom vanity A according to this illustrated example includes a weight scale and a body fat scale having a body weight and body fat measuring unit 60 drawn from the bathroom vanity A onto the floor B in front of the bathroom vanity A. The display unit 50 for the weight and body fat values of the scale and the body fat scale is a liquid crystal display 51, and a part of the mirror unit 31 of the toilet table A is provided. The liquid crystal display surface 51a of the liquid crystal display 51 is provided in close contact with the back surface of the reflective layer 31b ′ constituting the half mirror portion 31 ′ formed toward the reflective layer 31b ′.
