Description

本発明は使用後の便座を自動的に洗浄して乾燥させるための洋式便器に於ける便座洗浄装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a toilet seat cleaning apparatus in a Western-style toilet for automatically cleaning and drying a used toilet seat.

従来、洋式便器の便座洗浄装置に於いて、便座表面を一気に洗浄した後、乾燥させるものや、便座を持上げて立設した状態で且つ密閉状態で洗浄液を噴射し、蒸気又はエアを噴射して乾燥させるものなど多くの提案がなされている。特に簡単な構造で且つ小型化したものとして、特開平3−244419号や特開昭63−97124号がある。特開平3−244419号の構造は、伏倒使用位置から起立待機位置までの移動自在な便座を備えた洋風便器において、起立待機位置側に、待機中の便座の着座面に臨む洗浄液噴出口を設けたものである。又、特開昭63−97124号の構造は、便器の後部領域に鉛直に配置されその前面の少なくとも一部に出入用トラップドアが形成された密閉容器と、便器上に水平に載置された使用位置から密閉容器内に鉛直に配置される洗浄位置まで便座を案内し出入用トラップドアの開閉を同時に制御すべく機能する移動手段であって、連結手段によって便器の後部領域と出入用トラップドアとに連結され鉛直方向で上下に移動すべくモーター駆動されるアセンブリを内包する移動手段と、密閉容器に内蔵され洗浄水を便座に噴出すべく構成された洗浄手段と、密閉容器内で空気を循環させるように構成された乾燥手段と、モーター駆動されるアセンブリと洗浄手段と乾燥手段とのタイミング制御手段とを組み合わせて有する構造としたものである。   Conventionally, in toilet seat cleaning devices for Western-style toilet bowls, the toilet seat surface is washed at once and then dried, or the cleaning liquid is sprayed in a sealed state in which the toilet seat is lifted up and sealed, and steam or air is sprayed. Many proposals have been made on what to dry. JP-A-3-244419 and JP-A-63-97124 are particularly simple structures and miniaturized ones. The structure of Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 3-244419 is a Western-style toilet equipped with a toilet seat that is movable from the overlying use position to the stand-by standby position, and has a washing liquid spout facing the seating surface of the stand-by toilet seat on the stand-by standby position side. It is provided. Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 63-97124 has a structure in which a closed container vertically disposed in the rear region of the toilet bowl and having an entrance / exit trap door formed on at least a part of the front face thereof is horizontally placed on the toilet bowl. It is a moving means that functions to guide the toilet seat from the use position to the washing position vertically arranged in the closed container and to control the opening and closing of the entrance / exit trap door at the same time. Moving means containing a motor-driven assembly that moves vertically in the vertical direction, cleaning means built in the sealed container and configured to eject cleaning water to the toilet seat, and air in the sealed container A drying unit configured to circulate, a motor-driven assembly, a cleaning unit, and a timing control unit of the drying unit are combined.

しかしながら特開平3−244419号は、便座の使用時には扉が閉じず、温風供給箱, 洗浄液用送液管,温風突出口などが正面から見えるため、見た目が良くないものであると共に、洗浄水や温風が人の背中に向って出る恐れがあった。しかも便座の表面側の洗浄しかできず、裏面側の洗浄は定期的に人手によって行わなければならなかった。   However, JP-A-3-244419 does not close the door when the toilet seat is used, and the hot air supply box, the cleaning liquid feeding pipe, the hot air protruding port, etc. are visible from the front, so that the appearance is not good and the cleaning is performed. There was a risk of water and warm air coming out toward the person's back. Moreover, only the front side of the toilet seat could be cleaned, and the back side had to be periodically cleaned manually.

一方、特開昭63−97124号は、便座の後部が引上げられて密閉容器内に且つ鉛直に収納されるが、この時、便座の前部下面が便器表面を摺動するため、便座の下面が汚れていると便器表面を毎回汚れが塗布された状態となってしまう恐れがあると共に便座下面と便器表面に硬いゴミや砂状のゴミなどが付着していると、便器表面に、擦り傷やペーパーを掛けたような艶消し状の微小な傷を付ける恐れがあった。更に便座表面は毎回トラップドアの裏面に接触して擦れるため、便器表面と同様に、トラップドアの裏面に汚れが付着すると毎回汚れが便座表面に塗布された状態となってしまう恐れがあると共にトラップドアの裏面に硬いゴミや砂状のゴミなどが付着していると、便座表面には、擦り傷や艶消し状の微小な傷が付き、便器全体のイメージダウンとなる恐れがあった。又、便座が密閉容器の内部で洗浄された後に乾燥しても、便座を完全に乾燥させるためには時間が長く掛かると共に洗浄水が下方へ流れて集められるため、便座前側及びトラップドア下部に水滴が残り易く、且つ、トラップドア下部と便座表面が接触して便器にセットされるため、便座表面に水滴が残って完全な乾燥が難しいものであった。   On the other hand, in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 63-97124, the rear part of the toilet seat is pulled up and stored vertically in a sealed container. At this time, the front lower surface of the toilet seat slides on the toilet surface. If the surface of the toilet bowl is dirty, the surface of the toilet bowl may be smudged every time, and if hard or sandy debris adheres to the toilet seat bottom and toilet surface, There was a risk of frosted fine scratches such as paper hanging. Furthermore, since the toilet seat surface contacts and rubs against the back surface of the trap door each time, as with the toilet bowl surface, if dirt adheres to the back surface of the trap door, there is a risk that the stain will be applied to the toilet seat surface each time and the trap is trapped. If hard or sandy debris adheres to the back of the door, the toilet seat surface may be scratched or frosted, causing the image of the entire toilet to be down. Also, even if the toilet seat is dried after being cleaned inside the sealed container, it takes a long time to completely dry the toilet seat and the wash water flows downward and is collected. Water droplets are likely to remain, and since the lower part of the trap door and the toilet seat surface come into contact with each other and are set in the toilet bowl, water droplets remain on the toilet seat surface and it is difficult to completely dry.

(9) is a sensor provided on the front surface of the cleaning chamber (3) (see FIG. 5). When the sensor (9) senses that the person has left or approached the toilet (1), a control (not shown) is performed. The product of the present invention is operated in accordance with the command of the control box that is input to the box. In the control box, the cleaning operation sequence and conditions of the toilet seat (2) are set in advance as a program, and the program is stored.

次に本発明の作用を図2に基づいて説明する。先ず使用後に人が便器(1)から離れると、洗浄室(3)の前面に設けたセンサー(9)からの信号が図示しない制御ボックスに送られ、該制御ボックスから便座収納手段(4)へ指令が送られる。すると駆動モーター(44)が作動し、回転軸(41)を回転させると扇状歯車(42)が図1に示す点線矢印のように回転する。この扇状歯車(42)はラック(43)の上を噛合させながら後方(右側)に移動し回転すると、回転軸(41)が後方へ移動する。つまり、便座(2)は先端が持上げられて2点鎖線の位置から実線の位置まで来ると共に回転軸(41)がラック(43)の中央位置まで水平移動されるのである。更に扇状歯車(42)が回転しながらラック(43)の上を噛合して行くと、便座(2)は立設した点線位置で洗浄室(3)の内部に収納されるのである。そして駆動モーター(44)は停止する。この時、便座(2)は、水はけが良くなるように、若干後反りになるようにしている。又、この時、前記回転軸(41)はガイド部材(5)によってスムーズに水平移動される。尚、前記制御ボックスからの指令が開閉機構部(8)へ予め送られているので、便座(2)が洗浄室(3)に入る前に自動開閉戸(31)は適宜タイミングで開かれた状態となる。   Next, the operation of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. First, when a person leaves the toilet (1) after use, a signal from a sensor (9) provided in front of the washing room (3) is sent to a control box (not shown) from the control box to the toilet seat storage means (4). A command is sent. Then, the drive motor (44) is operated, and when the rotating shaft (41) is rotated, the fan gear (42) is rotated as indicated by a dotted arrow shown in FIG. When the fan gear (42) moves rearward (right side) while meshing with the top of the rack (43) and rotates, the rotating shaft (41) moves rearward. In other words, the toilet seat (2) is lifted at its tip and moved from the position of the two-dot chain line to the position of the solid line, and the rotation shaft (41) is horizontally moved to the center position of the rack (43). Further, when the fan gear (42) rotates and meshes on the rack (43), the toilet seat (2) is housed inside the washing chamber (3) at the standing dotted line position. Then, the drive motor (44) stops. At this time, the toilet seat (2) is slightly warped to improve drainage. At this time, the rotating shaft (41) is smoothly moved horizontally by the guide member (5). Since the command from the control box is sent to the opening / closing mechanism (8) in advance, the automatic opening / closing door (31) was opened at an appropriate timing before the toilet seat (2) entered the washing room (3). It becomes a state.

前記回転軸(41)がガイド部材(5)によってスムーズに水平移動される状態を図3に基づいて詳細に説明する。駆動モーター(44)が作動すると、回転軸(41)が回転されて扇状歯車(42)は回転し、この扇状歯車(42)はラック(43)の上を噛合させながら水平移動するのである。この時、扇状歯車(42)の両側はガイド本体(51)によってガイドされると共に、該ガイド本体(51)は2本のガイド棒(52)によって、ラック(43)に沿ってガイドされるため、扇状歯車(42)はラック(43)に確実に噛合しながら回転されるのである。   A state where the rotating shaft (41) is smoothly horizontally moved by the guide member (5) will be described in detail with reference to FIG. When the drive motor (44) is operated, the rotating shaft (41) is rotated to rotate the fan gear (42), and the fan gear (42) moves horizontally while meshing on the rack (43). At this time, both sides of the fan-shaped gear (42) are guided by the guide body (51), and the guide body (51) is guided along the rack (43) by the two guide bars (52). The fan gear (42) is rotated while being reliably engaged with the rack (43).

前記便座(2)が洗浄室(3)の内部に立設して収納され、駆動モーター(44)が停止された後、制御ボックスからの指令が開閉機構部(8)へ送られて来ると、先ず開閉用シリンダー(84)が作動して図4に示す白抜き矢印のように開閉用シリンダー(84)のロッドが収縮されて水平移動し、このロッドの移動に伴って左側の自動開閉戸(31)が細線矢印のように閉じられるのである。この時、ピニオン(82)は噛合する上方のラック(81)によって回転され、且つ、該ピニオン(82)の回転に伴って下方のラック(81)を右側の2点鎖線の矢印のように内側へ移動させることにより、ラック(81)と共に右側の自動開閉戸(31)が細線の矢印のように閉じられ、一対の自動開閉戸(31)は閉じるのである。これで便座(2)の洗浄準備が完了するのである。   When the toilet seat (2) is stood and stored inside the washing chamber (3) and the drive motor (44) is stopped, a command from the control box is sent to the opening / closing mechanism (8). First, the open / close cylinder (84) is actuated and the rod of the open / close cylinder (84) contracts and moves horizontally as indicated by the white arrow shown in FIG. (31) is closed like a thin line arrow. At this time, the pinion (82) is rotated by the meshing upper rack (81), and the lower rack (81) is moved inward as indicated by the two-dot chain line arrow on the right side as the pinion (82) rotates. The right automatic opening / closing door (31) together with the rack (81) is closed as shown by the thin line arrows, and the pair of automatic opening / closing doors (31) is closed. This completes preparation for cleaning the toilet seat (2).

その後、制御ボックスからの指令が送られて、洗浄手段(6)を作動させる。つまり、図示しない洗浄液タンクからポンプによって噴射管(61)へ洗浄液が供給されると共にその洗浄液が多数の噴射孔(62)から便座(2)の両面に向って噴射して洗浄作業を行う。この洗浄液は便座(2)の両面に当り、水滴となって落下する。この時、図1、図2の図中に示す便座(2)のように若干後反りに立設させた状態で洗浄すると、便座(2)の表面側の水はけが良くなる。所定時間経過すると、前記ポンプが停止されると共に図示しない電磁切換弁が洗浄液からエアに切換えられる。その後、図示しないファンが作動し、エアが噴射管(61)に供給されて、各噴射孔(62)から便座(2)の両面にエアを噴射させ、乾燥作業が開始される。この時、エアは加熱された状態で噴射されるのが好ましい。エアは所定時間を経過すると、前記ファンが停止し、便座(2)の洗浄作業と乾燥作業は完了する。尚、前記洗浄作業と乾燥作業は本発明者が提案した特願2001−313770で開示した工程と略同じ工程で行えば良い。   Thereafter, a command from the control box is sent to activate the cleaning means (6). That is, the cleaning liquid is supplied from the cleaning liquid tank (not shown) to the injection pipe (61) by the pump, and the cleaning liquid is sprayed from both the injection holes (62) toward both sides of the toilet seat (2) to perform the cleaning operation. This cleaning liquid hits both sides of the toilet seat (2) and falls as water droplets. At this time, if the toilet seat (2) shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is washed while standing slightly backward as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the drainage on the surface side of the toilet seat (2) is improved. When a predetermined time has elapsed, the pump is stopped and an electromagnetic switching valve (not shown) is switched from the cleaning liquid to air. Thereafter, a fan (not shown) is operated, air is supplied to the injection pipe (61), air is injected from the respective injection holes (62) onto both surfaces of the toilet seat (2), and a drying operation is started. At this time, the air is preferably jetted in a heated state. When the air has passed a predetermined time, the fan stops and the cleaning operation and the drying operation of the toilet seat (2) are completed. The cleaning operation and the drying operation may be performed in substantially the same steps as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application No. 2001-313770 proposed by the present inventor.

次に制御ボックスから開閉機構部(8)へ指令が送られ、自動開閉戸(31)を開く。そして便座収納手段(4)を作動させて、立設状態の便座(2)を徐々に倒しながら洗浄室(3)から出すと共に、便座(2)を便器(1)上に載置させる。その後、開閉機構部(8)を作動させ、自動開閉戸(31)を閉じることにより、全ての工程が完了し、次の便器(1)の使用を待つのである。便器(1)が使用されると、便座(2)が徐々に立設されながら奥へ移動し、便座(2)が洗浄室(3)に入れられて密閉され、その便座(2)を洗浄及び乾燥させる。このように上記工程を繰返すのである。尚、自動開閉戸(31)は適宜なタイミングで開閉される。乾燥後、便座(2)を洗浄室(3)から出し、元の位置に便座(2)を戻して便器(1)上に載置させることにより、使用後の便座(2)が自動的に洗浄されて常に便座(2)を清潔に保持することができ、特に公衆トイレや企業内のトイレに於いて、不特定多数の人が使用しても、使用者が清潔で安心して使用出来るものとなるのである。又、前記工程に於いて、便座(2)の洗浄作業と乾燥作業が終了後、開閉機構部(8)を作動させずに、便座(2)を洗浄室(3)の中に入れたままにさせ、次の便器(1)の使用を待ち、便器(1)が使用される時に、便座(2)を洗浄室(3)から出すようにプログラムしたものとしても良い。この場合、便座(2)は乾燥時の暖かい雰囲気中に包まれた状態で待機するため、特に冬場に於いては、暖められた便座(2)が使用者の目の前に出てくると共に始めから便器(1)の上に載置した放置状態と比べ清潔感のあるものとなる。   Next, a command is sent from the control box to the opening / closing mechanism (8) to open the automatic opening / closing door (31). Then, the toilet seat storage means (4) is actuated so that the standing toilet seat (2) is gradually lowered and taken out of the washing room (3), and the toilet seat (2) is placed on the toilet (1). Thereafter, the opening / closing mechanism (8) is operated and the automatic opening / closing door (31) is closed, whereby all the steps are completed and the use of the next toilet (1) is awaited. When the toilet bowl (1) is used, the toilet seat (2) is moved to the back while being erected gradually, and the toilet seat (2) is sealed in the washing room (3), and the toilet seat (2) is washed. And dry. Thus, the above process is repeated. The automatic opening / closing door (31) is opened and closed at an appropriate timing. After drying, the toilet seat (2) is taken out of the washing room (3), and the toilet seat (2) is returned to its original position and placed on the toilet bowl (1). The toilet seat (2) can always be kept clean after being washed, especially in public toilets and company toilets, even if it is used by an unspecified number of people, the user can use it cleanly and with peace of mind It becomes. In the above process, after the cleaning operation and the drying operation of the toilet seat (2) are completed, the toilet seat (2) is kept in the cleaning chamber (3) without operating the opening / closing mechanism (8). It is also possible to wait for the use of the next toilet bowl (1) and to program the toilet seat (2) out of the washing room (3) when the toilet bowl (1) is used. In this case, the toilet seat (2) waits in a state of being wrapped in a warm atmosphere when it is dry, so that the warm toilet seat (2) comes out in front of the user, especially in winter. Compared to the state of being left on the toilet (1) from the beginning, it is more clean.
