Description

  The present invention relates to a toilet device and a toilet seat unit used in the toilet device.

  Conventionally, a toilet device capable of cleaning the back surface of a toilet seat has been proposed. For example, Patent Document 1 describes a toilet device that can clean the back surface of a toilet seat by fixing a discharge portion to the toilet seat and discharging a cleaning liquid from the discharge portion.

JP 2002-54216 A

  By the way, when the back surface of the toilet seat is cleaned using the cleaning liquid that travels along the back surface of the toilet seat, the cleaning liquid drips from the back surface of the toilet seat due to its own weight. Therefore, there is a problem that it is difficult to reach the cleaning liquid over a wide range. The disclosed technique of Patent Document 1 does not take a special measure in relation to such a problem, and an improvement thereof is desired.

  An aspect of the present invention is made in view of such a problem, and one of the purposes is to provide a technique capable of easily allowing the cleaning liquid to reach a wide area on the back surface of the toilet seat.

  A first aspect of the present invention for solving the above-described problem is a toilet device. The toilet device according to the first aspect is capable of discharging the cleaning liquid so as to travel along the back surface of the toilet seat toward one side in the circumferential direction of the toilet seat, a toilet seat having a toilet bowl portion, a toilet seat attached to the toilet body A first discharge part, and the back surface of the toilet seat has a downward slope toward one side in the circumferential direction of the toilet seat in at least a part of the range where the cleaning liquid discharged from the first discharge part is transmitted A first inclined surface is provided.

  According to the first aspect, when the cleaning liquid is transmitted through the first inclined surface of the toilet seat, the cleaning liquid is easily transmitted in a direction in which the first inclined surface is inclined downward using gravity due to the weight of the cleaning liquid. Therefore, compared with the case where the toilet seat does not have the first inclined surface, the cleaning liquid can easily reach the wide area of the back surface of the toilet seat.

  The toilet device 10 includes a flow restricting structure 64 for restricting the flow of the cleaning liquid that is directed radially outward through the space between the rim portion 18 of the toilet body 14 and the toilet seat 22. The flow restricting structure 64 of the present embodiment is the upper edge 12 a of the toilet bowl 12 of the toilet body 14.

  The operation of the toilet device 10 will be described. As will be described in detail later, the toilet device 10 of the present embodiment is configured to start the operation of discharging the cleaning liquid from the second discharge unit 50B after the operation of discharging the cleaning liquid from the first discharge unit 50A is completed. The

  As shown in FIG. 6, the cleaning liquid discharged from the first discharge unit 50A hits the rear part of the right half region 38R of the first bowl facing surface 34 of the toilet seat 22 and spreads in the discharge direction Pc from the contact point Spa. The first back flow Fa that is transmitted through the first bowl facing surface 34 is formed. Here, the discharge direction Pc refers to a direction along the central axis of a cleaning liquid outlet 76 (described later) of the discharge unit referred to. A part of the first seat back flow Fa is changed so that the flow direction bends radially inward by hitting the flow restricting structure 64 and the outer peripheral convex portion 58 of the toilet seat 22. The outer peripheral side portion 54 of the facing surface 34 is guided so as to be transmitted to one side Pa in the circumferential direction (see direction Da).

  In the back view of the toilet seat 22, the outer peripheral surface 56 a of the inner peripheral side convex portion 56, specifically, the outer peripheral surface of the first guide portion 40 is in a range Sc in which the cleaning liquid can travel straight from the first discharge portion 50 A in the discharge direction Pc. positioned. Thereby, a part of the cleaning liquid discharged from the first discharge unit 50A flows so as to travel along the outer peripheral surface 56a of the inner peripheral side convex portion 56 in the circumferential direction. 50 A of 1st discharge parts discharge a washing | cleaning liquid so that the outer peripheral surface 56a (1st guidance | induction part 40) of the internal peripheral side convex part 56 may be transmitted to the circumferential direction.

  A part of the cleaning liquid discharged from the first discharge part 50A is in the process of traveling in the circumferential direction on the outer peripheral surface 56a (first guide part 40) of the inner peripheral side convex part 56, and its flow direction is changed in the radial direction by the Coanda effect. While bending inward, it tends to flow along the outer peripheral surface 56a (see direction Db). A part of the cleaning liquid is guided to be transmitted to the one side Pa in the circumferential direction through the inner peripheral side portion 52 of the first bowl facing surface 34 while being changed so that the flow direction is bent inward in the radial direction. As described above, the first guide portion 40 of the inner peripheral side convex portion 56 has the inner side of the first bowl facing surface 34 while bending the flow direction of a part of the cleaning liquid discharged from the first discharge portion 50A radially inward. A part of the cleaning liquid can be guided to travel along the peripheral portion 52.

  As shown in FIG. 7, the cleaning liquid discharged from the second discharge unit 50B hits the rear part of the left half region 38L of the first bowl facing surface 34, and spreads in the discharge direction Pc from the contact point Spb. A second back flow Fb that travels along the bowl facing surface 34 is formed. A part of the second seat back flow Fb, like the first seat back flow Fa, hits the flow regulating structure 64 and the outer peripheral side convex portion 58 of the toilet seat 22, so that the flow direction is changed to bend radially inward. Primarily, the outer peripheral side portion 54 of the first bowl facing surface 34 is guided to be transmitted to the other side Pb in the circumferential direction (see direction Dc).

  In the back view of the toilet seat 22, the outer peripheral surface 56a of the inner peripheral convex portion 56, more specifically, the outer peripheral surface of the second guiding portion 42 is within a range Sd in which the cleaning liquid can travel straight from the second discharge portion 50B in the discharge direction Pc. positioned. Thereby, a part of the cleaning liquid discharged from the second discharge part 50B also flows along the outer peripheral surface 56a (second guide part 42) of the inner peripheral protrusion 56 in the circumferential direction.

  A part of the cleaning liquid discharged from the second discharge portion 50B also travels in the radial direction due to the Coanda effect in the process of traveling along the outer peripheral surface 56a (second guide portion 42) of the inner peripheral protrusion 56 in the circumferential direction. It tries to flow along the outer peripheral surface 56a while bending inward (see direction Dd). A part of the cleaning liquid is guided so as to be transmitted to the other side Pb in the circumferential direction through the inner peripheral side portion 52 of the first bowl facing surface 34 while being changed so that the flow direction is bent inward in the radial direction. As described above, the second guiding portion 42 of the inner circumferential side convex portion 56 is configured so that the flow direction of a part of the cleaning liquid discharged from the second discharge portion 50B is bent inward in the radial direction while A part of the cleaning liquid can be guided to travel along the peripheral portion 52.

  With the above configuration, the first back flow Fa passes the first bowl-facing surface 34 in the circumferential direction so as to pass through the central portion 38Rb and the circumferential end portion 38Ra in the front-rear direction Y of the right half region 38R of the toilet seat 22. To one side Pa. Further, the second back flow Fb passes through the first bowl-facing surface 34 on the other side in the circumferential direction so as to pass through the central portion 38Lb and the circumferential end portion 38La in the front-rear direction Y of the left half region 38L of the toilet seat 22. It is transmitted to Pb. The first seat back flow Fa and the second seat back flow Fb flow so as to travel through the front end region 39 of the first bowl facing surface 34 as a region partially overlapping each other.

  The effect of the toilet device 10 will be described. The toilet device 10 includes guide portions 40 and 42 (inner peripheral convex portions 56) capable of guiding a part of the cleaning liquid so as to travel along the inner peripheral portion 52 of the first bowl facing surface 34 of the toilet seat 22. Therefore, the inner peripheral side of the first bowl facing surface 34 outside the region where the cleaning liquid can travel straight from the places Spa and Spb that have started to travel at the locations Spa and Spb that have started to travel along the first bowl facing surface 34. The cleaning liquid can be easily transmitted to the portion 52. This means, for example, that the cleaning liquid can be easily transmitted to regions 88A and 88B (see FIG. 9) described later. For this reason, it becomes possible to allow the cleaning liquid to reach a wide range of the first bowl facing surface 34, and it is possible to suppress unwashed residue on the first bowl facing surface 34.

  FIG. 9A is an explanatory diagram showing the first specific area 66A, and FIG. 9B is an explanatory diagram showing the second specific area 66B. In the rear view of the toilet seat 22, imaginary lines extending in the cleaning liquid discharge direction Pc from the seat back discharge portions 50A and 50B and circumscribing the outline of the central opening 32 of the toilet seat 22 are referred to as circumscribing lines LcA and LcB. . The circumscribing lines LcA and LcB extend from the center position of the cleaning liquid outlet 76 of the seat back discharge portions 50A and 50B in the back view of the toilet seat 22. The outer tangent lines LcA and LcB include a first outer tangent line LcA corresponding to the first ejection part 50A and a second outer tangent line LcB corresponding to the second ejection part 50B.

  On the first bowl-facing surface 34 of the toilet seat 22, the region is closer to the center Cp of the toilet seat 22 than the first circumscribing line LcA, and is located in the discharge direction Pc of the first discharge unit 50A from the circumscribing location of the first circumscribing line LcA. The area is referred to as a first specific area 66A. On the first bowl-facing surface 34 of the toilet seat 22, the region is closer to the center Cp of the toilet seat 22 than the second circumscribing line LcB, and is located in the ejection direction Pc of the second ejection unit 50B from the circumscribing location of the second circumscribing line LcB. The area is referred to as a second specific area 66B. The first specific region 66A is a region where the cleaning liquid discharged by the first discharge unit 50A is difficult to reach, and the second specific region 66B is a region where the cleaning liquid discharged by the second discharge unit 50B is difficult to reach.

  At this time, the first guiding portion 40 is transmitted through a part of the inner peripheral side portion 52 of the first bowl facing surface 34 that overlaps the first specific region 66A (double-hatched region 88A in FIG. 9A). A part of the cleaning solution can be induced. Moreover, the 2nd guidance | induction part 42 is transmitted so that a part (area | region 88B of the double hatching of FIG.9 (b)) of the location which overlaps with the 2nd specific area | region 66B in the inner peripheral side part 52 of the 1st bowl opposing surface 34 may be transmitted. A part of the cleaning liquid can be induced. Thereby, it becomes easy to make the cleaning liquid reach a place where the cleaning liquid discharged from the discharge units 50A and 50B is difficult to reach.

  The circumferential end 38Ra on the front side of the half region 38R is a place where the cleaning liquid is difficult to reach when discharging the cleaning solution from the discharge unit 50A so as to travel forward through the half region 38R. The first guide portion 40 of the inner circumferential convex portion 56 is provided so as to be continuous in the circumferential direction in a range including at least the center portion 38Rb in the front-rear direction Y of the half region 38R to the front circumferential end portion 38Ra. Accordingly, when the cleaning liquid is discharged so as to travel forward through the half area 38R, the cleaning liquid can easily reach the circumferential end 38Ra on the front side of the half area 38R where the cleaning liquid is difficult to reach.

  The seat back discharge portions 50A and 50B discharge the cleaning liquid so as to travel along the outer peripheral surface 56a of the inner peripheral convex portion 56 in the circumferential direction. Therefore, as described above, the cleaning liquid can be guided over a wide range of the inner peripheral side portion 52 of the first bowl facing surface 34 using the Coanda effect. In addition, outside the region where the cleaning liquid can travel straight from the locations Spa and Spb where the cleaning liquid has started to travel, the cleaning liquid cannot be directly applied to the outer peripheral surface 56a of the inner peripheral convex portion 56, and the cleaning liquid is difficult to reach. According to the present embodiment, the cleaning liquid can be delivered to the part of the outer peripheral surface 56a of the inner peripheral convex portion 56 at the location where the cleaning liquid is difficult to reach using the Coanda effect. There is an advantage that can be cleaned effectively.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the outer peripheral surface 56 a of the inner peripheral convex portion 56 is formed to extend downward as it goes radially inward. Therefore, when a part of the cleaning liquid is transmitted radially inward on the outer peripheral surface 56a of the inner peripheral convex portion 56, the cleaning liquid is easily transmitted to the lower end portion of the inner peripheral convex portion 56 without losing its momentum. (See direction De). For this reason, it becomes easy to wash | clean the outer peripheral surface 56a of the inner peripheral side convex part 56 using the force which a washing | cleaning liquid goes to radial inside.

  The inner peripheral surface 58a of the outer peripheral convex portion 58 is formed to extend downward as it goes radially outward. Therefore, when a part of the cleaning liquid is transmitted radially outward on the inner peripheral surface 58a of the outer peripheral convex part 58, the cleaning liquid is easily transmitted to the lower end part of the outer peripheral convex part 58 without losing the momentum ( See direction Df). For this reason, it becomes easy to wash | clean the internal peripheral surface 58a of the outer peripheral side convex part 58 using the force which a washing | cleaning liquid goes to radial direction outer side.

  Other features of the toilet device 10 will be described. As shown in FIG. 2, the toilet body 14 has a trap portion 70 connected to the bottom of the toilet bowl portion 12. The trap part 70 comprises a part of discharge channel | path part for discharging | emitting the wash water and filth in the toilet bowl part 12 to a sewer side water channel. The internal space of the trap part 70 communicates with the internal space of the toilet bowl 12 through an inlet 70 a formed at the bottom of the toilet bowl 12. The trap part 70 of this embodiment is provided on the front side of the bottom part of the toilet bowl part 12. The trap part 70 has an ascending water channel part 70b and a descending water channel part 70c in order from the upstream side to the downstream side. The rising water channel part 70 b is provided so as to rise as it goes downstream of the trap part 70. The lower precipitation path portion 70 c is provided so as to descend toward the downstream side of the trap portion 70.

  Reserved water 72 is stored at the bottom of the toilet bowl 12 and the rising water channel 70 b of the trap unit 70. The stored water 72 functions as sealed water that blocks the flow of air in the direction of water flow in the ascending water channel portion 70b of the trap unit 70, and prevents backflow of odor from the sewage side water channel.

  FIG. 10 is a plan view of the toilet body 14 showing the positional relationship between the inner peripheral convex portion 56 of the toilet seat 22 and the pooled water 72. The inner circumferential convex portion 56 is located in a position overlapping the toilet bowl 12 in the vertical direction Z at a location avoiding the accumulated water 72 in a range Se where the cleaning liquid discharged from the seat back discharge portions 50A and 50B is transmitted in a plan view. Placed in. The inner peripheral convex portion 56 is provided at a position where it does not overlap with the stored water 72 in the vertical direction Z in the range Se in which the cleaning liquid discharged from the seat back discharge portions 50A and 50B is transmitted. In this embodiment, the range Se through which the cleaning liquid is transmitted here is the entire range from the rear half of the left half region 38L and the right half region 38R of the first bowl facing surface 34 to the front circumferential end portions 38La and 38Ra. Say. As a result, even after the toilet seat 22 is washed with the washing liquid, even if a part of the washing liquid hangs down from the inner circumferential convex portion 56, it becomes difficult to fall directly into the stored water 72, and the generation of abnormal noise can be suppressed.

  FIG. 11 is a side cross-sectional view of the first ejection unit 50A. 12A is a cross-sectional view taken along line B-B in FIG. 11, and FIG. 12B is a view of FIG. Since most of the configurations of the first ejection unit 50A and the second ejection unit 50B are common, the common configuration will be described with reference to the drawing showing the first ejection unit 50A. Discharge holes 74 for discharging the cleaning liquid are formed in the seat back discharge portions 50A and 50B. The discharge hole 74 includes a first portion 74a on the upstream side and a second portion 74b that is connected to the downstream side of the first portion 74a and in which a cleaning liquid outlet 76 is formed at the downstream end thereof.

  The first portion 74 a is formed so that the passage cross-sectional area has an equal size toward the downstream side of the discharge hole 74. The first portion 74 a of the present embodiment is formed to extend linearly toward the downstream side of the discharge hole 74.

  The second portion 74b is formed so that the inner width in the horizontal direction Pd continuously increases as the cleaning liquid outlet 76 is approached when the toilet seat 22 is viewed from the back. Here, the horizontal direction Pd means a direction orthogonal to the discharge direction Pc of the seat back discharge portions 50A and 50B referred to in the back view of the toilet seat 22. The second portion 74 b is formed so that the passage cross-sectional area continuously increases toward the downstream side of the discharge hole 74. The cross-sectional shape of the second portion 74b of the present embodiment is an ellipse whose major axis is the horizontal direction Pd, and the major axis, which is the length in the major axis direction, increases as the cleaning liquid outlet 76 is approached. It is formed. The second portion 74b is formed so that the inner widths in the direction Pe perpendicular to the discharge direction Pc and the horizontal direction Pd are equal in size toward the cleaning liquid outlet 76.

  Thus, the cleaning liquid flows in the second portion 74b of the discharge hole 74 while spreading in the direction Pd, and the cleaning liquid having the velocity component in the direction Pd can be discharged from the cleaning liquid outlet 76 of the discharge hole 74. Accordingly, the cleaning liquid easily spreads in the direction Pd (see also FIGS. 6 and 7) in the process of being transmitted through the first bowl facing surface 34 of the toilet seat 22 in the discharge direction Pc, so that the cleaning liquid can reach a wide range of the first bowl facing surface 34. It becomes easy. In particular, there is an advantage that the cleaning liquid can easily reach the outside of the region where the cleaning liquid can travel straight from the locations Spa and Spb where the cleaning liquid has started to travel on the first bowl facing surface 34. This means, for example, that the cleaning liquid can be easily transmitted to the above-described regions 88A and 88B in FIG.

  Other features of the toilet device 10 will be described. FIG. 13 is an explanatory diagram showing the gradient of the first bowl facing surface 34 of the toilet seat 22. In the figure, the direction of the gradient from the high position to the low position is indicated by an arrow.

  As shown in FIGS. 6 and 13, the first bowl facing surface 34 has a first gradient toward one side Pa in the circumferential direction in at least a part of the range where the cleaning liquid discharged from the first discharge portion 50 </ b> A is transmitted. A first inclined surface 82 having a downward slope at 80 is provided. The first inclined surface 82 of the present embodiment includes at least the center portion 38Rb in the front-rear direction Y of the right half region 38R of the first bowl facing surface 34 to the circumferential end 38Ra on the front side of the right half region 38R. Provided in a range. The first inclined surface 82 of the present embodiment is provided in a range from the rear end portion of the right half region 38R to the front circumferential end portion 38Ra.

  As shown in FIGS. 7 and 13, the first bowl facing surface 34 has a second gradient toward the other side Pb in the circumferential direction in at least a part of the range where the cleaning liquid discharged from the second discharge portion 50 </ b> B is transmitted. A second inclined surface 86 is provided that is inclined downward at 84. The second inclined surface 86 of the present embodiment includes at least the center portion 38Lb in the front-rear direction Y of the left half region 38L of the first bowl facing surface 34 to the front circumferential end 38La of the left half region 38L. Provided in a range. The second inclined surface 86 of the present embodiment is provided in a range from the rear end portion of the left half region 38L to the front circumferential end portion 38La.

  14 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line DD of FIG. The first bowl facing surface 34 of the toilet seat 22 is provided with a crest 88 formed by the lower end of the first inclined surface 82 and the lower end of the second inclined surface 86. The mountain portion 88 is provided on the first bowl facing surface 34 of the toilet seat 22 so as to form a downward convex shape. The peak portion 88 of the present embodiment is provided so that the lower end portion of the first inclined surface 82 and the lower end portion of the second inclined surface 86 form a corner portion that is pointed downward.

  The first inclined surface 82 and the second inclined surface 86 are provided with a third gradient 90 that is a downward gradient from the middle position in the radial direction of the first bowl facing surface 34 toward the inner peripheral edge of the first bowl facing surface 34. It is done. The third gradient 90 is provided on the outer peripheral surface 56 a of the inner peripheral convex portion 56. The first inclined surface 82 and the second inclined surface 86 are provided with a fourth gradient 92 that is a downward gradient from a position in the radial direction of the first bowl facing surface 34 toward the outer peripheral edge of the first bowl facing surface 34. It is done. The fourth gradient 92 is provided on the inner peripheral surface 58 a of the outer peripheral convex portion 58.

  The effects of the above features will be described. FIG. 15A is a diagram schematically illustrating the back surface of the toilet seat 22 according to the first modification, and FIG. 15B is a diagram schematically illustrating the back surface of the toilet seat 22 according to the first embodiment. The 1st inclined surface 82 is not provided in the back surface of the toilet seat 22 of a 1st modification. As shown in FIGS. 15A and 15B, when the inclined surface 82 is provided on the back surface of the toilet seat 22, the cleaning liquid 94 discharged from the first discharge unit 50 </ b> A is easily transmitted through the back surface of the toilet seat 22. The reason for this will be explained.

  FIG. 15C is an enlarged view of a part of the back surface of the toilet seat 22 in FIG. The gravity due to its own weight applied to the cleaning liquid 94 is Fg, and this gravity Fg is a force component Fg1 in the normal direction of the first inclined surface 82 and a force component Fg2 in the direction of a downward gradient parallel to the first inclined surface 82. Disassembled into At this time, the force component Fg2 having a magnitude obtained by multiplying the sine value (sin θ) of the angle θ formed by the first inclined surface 82 with respect to the horizontal plane and the gravity Fg acts on the cleaning liquid transmitted through the first inclined surface 82. Yes. This is because, when the cleaning liquid is transmitted through the first inclined surface 82 of the toilet seat 22, the cleaning liquid is transmitted in the direction in which the first inclined surface 82 is inclined downward (the direction of the force component Fg2) using gravity due to the weight of the cleaning liquid. It means that it becomes easy to match. Therefore, according to this embodiment, compared with the case where the toilet seat 22 does not have the first inclined surface 82, the cleaning liquid can easily reach the wide area of the back surface of the toilet seat 22.

  In addition, when the cleaning liquid is transmitted through the second inclined surface 86 of the toilet seat 22, the cleaning liquid is easily transmitted in a direction in which the second inclined surface 86 is inclined downward by using gravity due to the weight of the cleaning liquid. Therefore, compared with the case where the toilet seat 22 does not have the second inclined surface 86, the cleaning liquid can easily reach the wide area on the back surface of the toilet seat 22.

  From the viewpoint of obtaining these effects, the angle θ formed by the first inclined surface 82 with respect to the horizontal plane is preferably set within a range of 1 ° to 15 °. When the angle θ is less than 1 °, the force component Fg2 in the direction in which the first inclined surface 82 has a downward slope becomes insufficient, and it becomes difficult to transmit the cleaning liquid in the downward slope direction. When the first gradient exceeds 15 °, the size of the toilet seat 22 in the vertical direction Z becomes too large, and the toilet seat 22 is increased in size. From such a viewpoint, the angle θ is more preferably set within a range of 3 ° to 8 °. For the same reason as the angle θ of the first inclined surface 82 with respect to the horizontal plane, the angle formed by the second inclined surface 86 with respect to the horizontal plane is preferably set within a range of 1 ° to 15 °, and more preferably 3 °. It is set within a range of ° to 8 °.

  As shown in FIG. 14, the back surface of the toilet seat 22 is provided with a peak portion 88 in which the lower end portion of the first inclined surface 82 and the lower end portion of the second inclined surface 86 constitute at least a part. Therefore, it becomes easy to drain the cleaning liquid transmitted in the direction in which the first inclined surface 82 has a downward gradient and the cleaning liquid transmitted in the direction in which the second inclined surface 86 has a downward gradient at the peak portion 88. For this reason, it becomes easy to control so that a part of washing | cleaning liquid which propagates the 1st inclined surface 82 or the 2nd inclined surface 86 falls in the toilet bowl part 12 of the toilet bowl main body 14 in the downward vicinity of the peak part 88. FIG. Along with this, it is easy to control the place where the cleaning liquid arrives in the toilet bowl 12, and the inside of the toilet bowl 12 can be easily washed with the cleaning liquid within the range including the liquid spot.

  The first inclined surface 82 of the present embodiment is provided in a range including at least the center portion Rb in the front-rear direction Y of the right half region 38R of the toilet seat 22 to the front circumferential end portion 38Ra. Therefore, by using such a first inclined surface 82, the cleaning liquid reaches the circumferential end portion 38Ra on the front side of the right half region 38R, which is a place where the cleaning liquid discharged from the first discharge portion 50A is difficult to reach. It becomes easy to get.

  In addition, the second inclined surface 86 is provided in a range including at least the center portion Lb in the front-rear direction Y of the left half region 38L of the toilet seat 22 to the front circumferential end portion 38La. Therefore, by using such a second inclined surface 86, the cleaning liquid reaches the front circumferential end portion 38La of the left half region 38L, which is a place where the cleaning liquid discharged from the second discharge portion 50B is difficult to reach. It becomes easy to get.

According to the toilet device 10 described above, by concealing the discharge holes 74 of the discharge portions 50A and 50B by the shutters 104A and 104B located at the concealment position Pf1, it is possible to prevent the entry of splashes into the discharge holes 74, which is favorable. Hygiene can be obtained.

  When the shutters 104A and 104B are in the concealment position Pf1, the openings 102A and 102B of the second casing 26 are closed. Therefore, the intrusion of splash into the second casing 26 can be prevented by the shutters 104A and 104B, and better hygiene can be obtained.

  The discharge portions 50A and 50B can advance and retract with respect to the openings 102A and 102B of the second casing 26 by rotating around the rotation shaft 106. Therefore, by making the openings 102A and 102B of the second casing 26 advance and retreat when the discharge parts 50A and 50B advance straight (see FIG. 39), the dimensions of the discharge parts 50A and 50B in the advancing / retreating direction Pm are reduced. Miniaturization can be achieved. Along with this, the space required for accommodating the discharge portions 50A and 50B in the second casing 26 (accommodating member) can be reduced.

In this embodiment, this refers to a case where the load to be applied to rotate the toilet seat 22 to the upright position increases. It is possible to avoid an increase in the load to be applied in order to rotate to the standing position. For this reason, in realizing the cleaning of the back surface of the toilet seat 22, the usability of the toilet seat 22 can be maintained.

  Further, the discharge units 50A and 50B are provided behind the center Cp of the toilet seat 22 and on the left side and the right side with respect to the nozzle 142. Therefore, compared with the case where the discharge portions 50A and 50B are provided in front of the center Cp of the toilet seat 22, the discharge portions 50A and 50B and the nozzle 142 can be provided at a united portion of the functional device 20, and the functional device 20 can be made compact. Can be planned.

  The discharge portions 50A and 50B include a first discharge portion 50A capable of discharging the cleaning liquid so as to travel along the back surface of the toilet seat 22 toward one side Pa in the circumferential direction, and the back surface of the toilet seat 22 toward the other side Pb in the circumferential direction. The second discharge part 50B capable of discharging the cleaning liquid is transmitted. Therefore, as described above, in a partial region (front end region 39) of the first bowl facing surface 34 of the toilet seat 22, the first seat back flow Fa transmitted to the one side Pa in the circumferential direction and the other side Pb in the circumferential direction. And the second back flow Fb transmitted to the area can be formed, and the region can be effectively cleaned.

  In particular, the front end region 39 of the first bowl-facing surface 34 of the toilet seat 22 is easily splashed with urine droplets received by the toilet bowl 12 of the toilet body 14 and is easily soiled. There is an advantage in that the first back flow Fa and the second back flow Fb can be formed in such a region, and the dirt can be easily washed away.

  The discharge units 50 </ b> A to 50 </ b> C are provided behind the front end 20 a of the functional device 20. Therefore, when the inside of the toilet bowl part 12 of the toilet bowl main body 14 is looked into from the upper side, it becomes difficult to see the discharge parts 50A-50C by the functional device 20, and good design properties can be obtained.

  Other features of the toilet device 10 will be described. Please refer to FIG. A recess 150 that is recessed upward is formed on the lower surface of the rear portion of the toilet seat 22. The concave portion 150 is disposed at a position overlapping with a part of the upper surface portion of the functional device 20 in the vertical direction Z. The recess 150 is formed in an outer shape that matches the outer shape of a part of the upper surface portion of the functional device 20, and is disposed along the upper surface portion. As shown in FIG. 11, the discharge portions 50 </ b> A to 50 </ b> C are arranged at positions that overlap the concave portion 150 of the toilet seat 22 in the vertical direction Z.

  The seat back discharge portions 50A and 50B are provided at positions away from the back surface of the toilet seat 22, and discharge the cleaning liquid in the discharge direction Pc so as to contact the back surface of the toilet seat 22 from that position. The seat back discharge sections 50 </ b> A and 50 </ b> B can discharge a cleaning liquid having an upward speed component from the cleaning liquid outlet 76. This means that the seat back discharge sections 50A and 50B can discharge the cleaning liquid so as to have an upward velocity component at least when the cleaning liquid outlet 76 flows out. It can be said that the ejection direction Pc of the seat back ejection units 50A and 50B is set upward. The seat back discharge portions 50A and 50B of the present embodiment discharge a cleaning liquid having an upward speed component in the vertical direction and a speed component in the horizontal direction. The seat back discharge portions 50A and 50B of the present embodiment discharge a cleaning liquid having a horizontal velocity component larger than an upward velocity component.

  FIG. 30A is a diagram schematically illustrating the cleaning liquid discharged from the first discharge unit 50A. The cleaning liquid discharged from the seat back discharge sections 50A and 50B tends to approach zero in the vertical direction due to the influence of gravity, but hits the back surface of the toilet seat 22 before the speed component becomes zero. The cleaning liquid discharged from the seat back discharge portions 50A and 50B hits the back surface of the toilet seat 22 with an upward speed component. It can be said that the toilet device 10 (toilet seat unit 16) is configured to satisfy this condition. In order to satisfy this condition, in addition to the cleaning liquid discharge direction Pc of the seat back discharge sections 50A and 50B, the distance from the location where the cleaning liquid hits the back surface of the toilet seat 22 to the discharge sections 50A and 50B, the discharge sections 50A and 50B A supply pressure or the like applied to the supplied cleaning liquid is set. The smaller the distance and the higher the supply pressure of the cleaning liquid, the easier it is to satisfy the aforementioned conditions.

  This advantage will be described. FIG. 30B is a diagram schematically illustrating the cleaning liquid discharged by the first discharge unit 50A of the second modification. The first discharge section 50A of this example discharges a cleaning liquid having only a horizontal speed component. The first discharge unit 50A in this example discharges a cleaning liquid that does not have an upward speed component. In this case, a part of the cleaning liquid flowing out from the cleaning liquid outlet 76 of the first discharge unit 50 </ b> A is easily affected by gravity and flows down downward without hitting the back surface of the toilet seat 22. In particular, the tendency of the part of the cleaning liquid flowing out from the position near the lower end edge of the cleaning liquid outlet 76 becomes stronger.

  On the other hand, according to the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 30 (a), even if it is affected by gravity, it is easy to design so that most of it is applied to the back surface of the toilet seat 22. Therefore, compared with the example of FIG. 30B, the amount of the cleaning liquid that flows along the back surface of the toilet seat 22 is increased by reducing the amount of the cleaning liquid that flows from the seat back discharge portions 50 </ b> A and 50 </ b> B without hitting the back surface of the toilet seat 22. This facilitates cleaning of the back surface of the toilet seat 22 effectively.

  The first casing 24 is attached to the toilet body 14 so as to be movable in the vertical direction. Specifically, the first casing 24 is movable between a first position where the first casing 24 is placed on the upper surface portion of the toilet body 14 and a second position away from the upper surface portion of the toilet body 14. Even in this case, the effect described in (E) can be obtained.

(Sixth embodiment)
43 and 44 are side cross-sectional views schematically showing a part of the toilet device 10 of the sixth embodiment. FIG. 43 shows a state in which the toilet seat 22 is in the lying position, and FIG. 44 shows a state in which the toilet seat 22 is in the standing position. As described above, the discharge unit 50A described above is rotatably attached to the second casing 26 of the functional device 20 via the rotation shaft 106.

  An angle formed by the discharge direction Pc of the discharge unit 50A with respect to the horizontal plane is defined as a discharge angle θ. As shown in FIG. 43, the discharge angle θ when the discharge direction Pc is upward is a negative angle, and as shown in FIG. 44, the discharge angle θ when the discharge direction Pc is downward is a positive angle. . At this time, the discharge unit 50A can change the discharge angle θ in the range of −90 ° or more and 90 ° or less by rotating around the rotation shaft 106.

  The toilet device 10 of the present embodiment includes a changing mechanism 180 that can change the discharge direction Pc in which the discharge unit 50A discharges the cleaning liquid according to the rotation position that is the position of the toilet seat 22 in the rotation range. The change mechanism 180 of the present embodiment includes a toilet seat sensor 182 that can detect the rotational position of the toilet seat 22, a drive mechanism 108A that can drive the discharge unit 50A, and a control unit 124 that can control the drive mechanism 108A. .

  The toilet seat sensor 182 is, for example, a combination of a Hall IC and a magnet, or a microswitch. The toilet seat sensor 182 of the present embodiment can detect that the toilet seat 22 is in the lying position and can detect that the toilet seat 22 is in the standing position. When the toilet seat sensor 182 detects the rotational position of the toilet seat 22, the toilet seat sensor 182 outputs a position signal indicating the rotational position to the control unit 124.

  The drive mechanism 108A is configured using a motor or the like. The drive mechanism 108A of the present embodiment is connected to the rotation shaft 106, and the discharge portion 50A is rotated integrally with the rotation shaft 106 around the rotation shaft 106, so that the discharge direction Pc of the discharge portion 50A is raised and lowered. It can be changed. The drive mechanism 108A can drive the shutter 104A together with the ejection unit 50A, as in the first embodiment, but it is sufficient that only the ejection unit 50A can be driven regardless of the shutter 104A.

  The control unit 124 can change the ejection direction Pc of the ejection unit 50A by driving the ejection unit 50A through control over the drive mechanism 108A. The control unit 124 of the present embodiment can change the ejection direction Pc of the ejection unit 50A up and down by changing the rotational position of the ejection unit 50A through control over the drive mechanism 108A.

  As shown in FIG. 43, when the control unit 124 receives a position signal indicating that the toilet seat 22 is in the lying position from the toilet seat sensor 182, the control unit 124 changes the discharge direction Pc of the discharge unit 50A so that the cleaning liquid is discharged upward. To do. The change mechanism 180 sets the discharge direction Pc of the discharge unit 50A so that the cleaning liquid is discharged upward when the toilet seat 22 is in the lying position. At this time, the change mechanism 180 changes the discharge direction Pc of the discharge unit 50 </ b> A so that the cleaning liquid hits the back surface of the toilet seat 22. The changing mechanism 180 changes the discharge angle θ to a range of −90 ° or more and less than 0 ° when the toilet seat 22 is in the lying position. The cleaning liquid discharged from the discharge unit 50 </ b> A in this state hits the back surface of the toilet seat 22 and is then transmitted through the back surface.

  As shown in FIG. 44, when the control unit 124 receives a position signal indicating that the toilet seat 22 is in the standing position from the toilet seat sensor 182, the control unit 124 changes the discharge direction Pc of the discharge unit 50A so that the cleaning liquid is discharged downward. To do. The change mechanism 180 sets the discharge direction Pc of the discharge unit 50A so that the cleaning liquid is discharged downward when the toilet seat 22 is in the standing position. When the toilet seat 22 is in the standing position, the changing mechanism 180 changes the discharge angle θ to a range of more than 0 ° and not more than 90 °. The cleaning liquid discharged from the discharge unit 50 </ b> A in this state is applied to the inner surface of the toilet bowl 12 of the toilet body 14 without hitting the back surface of the toilet seat 22.

  According to the toilet device 10 described above, by using the change mechanism 180, the discharge direction Pc of the discharge unit 50A can be designed to satisfy a desired condition according to the rotational position of the toilet seat 22, and the degree of freedom in design can be increased. Enhanced.

  Further, when the toilet seat 22 is in the lying position, the back surface of the toilet seat 22 can be cleaned with the cleaning liquid by changing the discharge direction Pc of the discharge section 50A so that the cleaning liquid is discharged upward. Further, when the toilet seat 22 is in the upright position, the cleaning liquid can be prevented from scattering out of the toilet bowl 12 by changing the discharge direction Pc of the discharge unit 50A so that the cleaning liquid is discharged downward. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the cleaning liquid from being scattered around the toilet seat 22 when the toilet seat 22 is in the upright position while achieving the cleaning of the back surface of the toilet seat 22, thereby obtaining good usability.

  In addition, the control part 124 of this embodiment changes the discharge direction Pc of 50 A of discharge parts according to the position signal by having received the position signal from the toilet seat sensor 182 as a trigger. In addition, when the control unit 124 receives the above-described cleaning start command, the control unit 124 changes the discharge direction Pc of the discharge unit 50A according to the position signal based on the position signal output from the toilet seat sensor 182 at that time. May be.

  The change mechanism 180 of the present embodiment has been described with reference to an example in which the discharge direction Pc of the discharge unit 50A can be changed under the control of the control unit 124. The change mechanism 180 only needs to be able to change the discharge direction Pc of the discharge unit 50A according to the rotational position of the toilet seat 22, and control by the control unit 124 is not essential.

  For example, the changing mechanism 180 may include a transmission mechanism that mechanically transmits the rotation operation of the toilet seat 22 as the rotation operation of the discharge unit 50A. A transmission mechanism is comprised using a gearwheel, a link, a belt, etc., for example. The transmission mechanism changes the discharge direction Pc of the discharge unit 50A upward when the toilet seat 22 is in the lying position. Further, the transmission mechanism changes the discharge direction Pc of the discharge unit 50A downward when the toilet seat 22 is in the standing position.

  Further, the changing mechanism 180 may change the discharge range instead of the discharge direction Pc of the discharge unit 50A. In realizing this, the changing mechanism 180 includes, for example, a restricting member for restricting the discharge range of the discharge unit 50A. The discharge unit 50A has a wide-angle discharge range so that at least a part of the cleaning liquid is discharged upward. The restricting member is disposed inside or outside the discharge hole 74 of the discharge unit 50A, and can be operated according to the rotational position of the toilet seat 22 by the above-described drive mechanism or transmission mechanism.

  As such an operation mode, the restricting member is moved to a position that does not restrict the discharge range of the discharge unit 50A when the toilet seat 22 is in the lying position. Thereby, the change mechanism 180 sets the discharge range in the vertical direction of the discharge portion 50A so that at least a part of the cleaning liquid is discharged upward. At this time, the discharge unit 50A discharges the cleaning liquid both upward and downward.

  Further, as the above-described operation mode, the restriction member is moved to a position that restricts the discharge range of the discharge unit 50A when the toilet seat 22 is in the standing position. At this time, the restricting member restricts the discharge range of the discharge portion 50A so that the cleaning liquid is discharged downward. Thereby, the change mechanism 180 sets the discharge range in the vertical direction of the discharge unit 50A so that the cleaning liquid is discharged downward. The change mechanism 180 expands the discharge range in the vertical direction of the discharge unit 50A when the toilet seat 22 is in the lying position, and reduces the discharge range when the toilet seat 22 is in the standing position. Thereby, while realizing the cleaning of the back surface of the toilet seat 22, it is possible to prevent the cleaning liquid from being scattered around when the toilet seat 22 is in the upright position, and good usability can be obtained.

  Further, by using the changing mechanism 180, it is possible to design the discharge range of the discharge unit 50A to satisfy a desired condition according to the rotation position of the toilet seat 22, and the degree of design freedom is increased.

  The present invention has been described above based on the embodiments. Next, a modified example of each component will be described.

  Although the toilet seat 22 has been described as being pivotably attached to the toilet body 14 via the functional device 20, the toilet seat 22 may be directly pivotably attached to the toilet body 14. In this case, the toilet seat unit 16 may not include the functional device 20.

  In addition to the first bowl facing surface 34 of the toilet seat 22, the discharge units 50 </ b> A and 50 </ b> B may eject the cleaning liquid so as to travel along places other than the first bowl facing surface 34.

Although the 1st guide part 40 and the 2nd guide part 42 demonstrated the example which the separate site | part of the same inner peripheral side convex part 56 comprised, the separate part mutually separated may comprise.

  The inner peripheral side convex portion 56 uses the Coanda effect to change the flow direction of the cleaning liquid that propagates in the outer peripheral surface 56a in the circumferential direction so as to bend radially inward, so that the first bowl opposing surface 34 of the toilet seat 22 is bent. An example has been described in which the cleaning liquid is guided so as to travel along the inner peripheral side portion. In addition to this, the first bowl facing surface can be obtained by changing the flow direction of the cleaning liquid transmitted in the circumferential direction to the inner side in the radial direction without using the Coanda effect. The cleaning liquid may be guided so as to travel along the inner peripheral side portion of 34.
