By the way, the toilet room usually does not have such a large space area, and how to secure the installation space for toilet bowls and wash basins in the limited indoor space is an important issue. Under such circumstances, in the wall-mounted toilet bowl described in Patent Document 1 and the toilet cabinet described in Patent Document 2, there is no concrete means for devising or taking measures for effective space utilization of the toilet room. Not listed.

As described above, in any of the patent documents, the effective use of space in the toilet room is hardly mentioned, and there is room for improvement in the thinning of the toilet cabinet in particular.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to shorten the dimension of the toilet cabinet in the depth direction (thickness) to provide a thin toilet cabinet.

The toilet cabinet according to the present invention is a toilet cabinet formed on the rear wall portion of the toilet room, and is provided inside the cabinet body and the cabinet body, and is above the toilet body body provided on the outside of the front surface of the cabinet body. It is provided with a wash water tank which is arranged at a position and supplies wash water to the toilet body, and the cabinet body is provided inside the cabinet body and is provided inside the cabinet body and is at least one of the wash water tank and the toilet body. The washing water tank has a recess on the front surface thereof, and the frame is at least partially provided in the recess.

According to the toilet cabinet having such a configuration, since the frame is installed so as to fit in the recess, the cabinet size in the depth direction can be reduced by the thickness of the frame.

In another aspect of the toilet cabinet according to the present invention, the frame has a vertical frame extending in the vertical direction, the recess extends and penetrates in the vertical direction, and the recess has the vertical portion. The frame is arranged.

According to the toilet cabinet having such a configuration, when dew condensation or the like caused by the washing water in the tank is generated outside the tank, there is a possibility that the dew condensation water adheres to the frame close to the tank. On the other hand, according to this configuration, such water droplets such as dew condensation water can fall downward without staying in the recess. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the adhesion of water droplets to the frame, and even if the frame is made of metal, for example, it is possible to suppress corrosion due to the generation of rust.

In another aspect of the toilet cabinet according to the present invention, the recess is formed in the corner region of the washing water tank.

According to the toilet vignette with such a configuration, the recesses are formed in the corners of the tank, so that the tank installation work, the pipe connection work, and the subsequent maintenance and inspection work can be performed without the frame becoming an obstacle. , For convenience.

According to the present invention, since the washing water tank has a recess on the front surface and at least a part of the frame is provided in the recess, the size of the toilet cabinet in the depth direction (thickness) is shortened to make it thinner. can.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. In each of these figures, in order to clarify the arrangement of each member, the three-dimensional Cartesian coordinates of the right-handed system in which the directions of XYZ are orthogonal to each other are set, but the origin O is set to a specific position in particular. There is no such thing. However, here, the X direction indicates the depth direction of the toilet room, Y indicates the width direction of the toilet room, and Z indicates the height direction of the toilet room.

(First Embodiment)
1 and 2 show a toilet room T provided with a toilet cabinet 1 according to the present embodiment, and the toilet cabinet 1 includes a wash water tank 2A, a wash water tank 2A, and a toilet bowl main body 3. It includes a supporting frame 4A and a decorative plate 5. In the figure, reference numeral U indicates an upper pipe, and D indicates a lower pipe.

The wash water tank 2A stores wash water for washing away excrement after using the toilet, and is arranged at a position higher than the toilet bowl main body 3. By arranging in this way, the potential energy difference between the washing water in the washing water tank 2A and the toilet body 3 is converted into the drainage force of the washing water, and the excrement can be pushed out with a strong flow. Therefore, the washing water tank 2 is fixed and held at a higher place than the toilet bowl main body 3 by the frame 4 described later.

Like other general ones, the wash water tank 2 has a main body 21 on the lower side and a lid that covers the main body 21 from above because of maintenance management and inspection / repair inside the tank in which the wash water is stored. It is divided into a portion 22 and the lid portion 22 can be appropriately removed. As shown in FIG. 3, the washing water tank 2A of the present embodiment is made of a resin molded product or pottery formed of an appropriate material into a unique substantially box shape. In particular, in the present embodiment, the left and right corner portions (corner regions) on the front surface facing the toilet body 3 are formed so that the recesses 23 extending from the top to the bottom penetrate in the height (Z) direction. ing.
In this embodiment, the shape of the recess has a shape having corners (square) in the top view, but for example, even if a part or the whole is rounded in an R shape. good.

The toilet body 3 of the present embodiment is a floor-standing type, and is directly placed directly on the floor surface F. Further, the toilet body 3 is communicated and connected to the upper pipe U and the lower pipe D. Specifically, the washing water tank 2A and the toilet bowl main body 3 are connected by an upper pipe U. On the other hand, the toilet bowl main body 3 and the sewer pipe side are connected by a lower pipe D. The toilet body 3 of the present invention is a floor-standing type that is directly installed on the floor, but may be a wall-mounted type that rises to a certain height from the floor surface.

The frame 4A is configured to fix and hold the washing water tank 2, the toilet bowl body 3, and the outer decorative plate portion 5 (hereinafter, abbreviated as “decorative plate 5”) described later in the toilet cabinet 1. ing. The frame 4A needs to support the weight of the washing water tank for accommodating the washing water for a long period of time, and is preferably made of a rigid metal such as steel because the required strength is required.

As shown in FIG. 4, the frame 4A of the present embodiment has two vertically extending prisms 41 provided in the width (Y) direction of the toilet chamber T, and the depth of the toilet chamber T on the upper side of each prism 41. The arm plate 42 extending laterally in the (-X) direction, the abutting plate 43 provided at the tip of each arm plate 42, and the support plate 44 extending in parallel with the arm plate 42 from the position of the intermediate portion of each prism 41. And a foot plate 45 that supports each pillar 41 at the lower end of each pillar 41.

In the case of the present embodiment, the pillar 41 is formed of a prism shape having a substantially square cross section, and the decorative plate which is particularly the front surface of the decorative plate 5 on the front surface side (this is referred to as “front plate 51”). A screw hole 41A for fixing the call) is formed at a predetermined position in the vertical (Z) direction.

The arm plate 42 functions as a support rod for stably supporting the washing water tank 2A held by the support plate 44. Therefore, the arm plate 42 is pressed against the abutting wall (hereinafter, referred to as “rear wall W1”) via the abutting plate 43 provided at the tip.

The abutting plate 43 has a shape having a substantially T-shape with respect to the arm plate 42, and by contacting the rear wall W1 in a close contact state, a specific ratio of the weight of the washing water tank is supported here. do. The height of the upper surface of the abutting plate 43 from the floor surface is set to the same level as the height of the upper surface of the pillar 41 from the floor surface. A decorative plate (which is referred to as an "upper plate 52") is mounted on these upper surface portions to be horizontally installed.

The abutting plate 43 may not be in a mere contact state with the rear wall W1 as in the present embodiment. For example, in the case of a material having high strength of the rear wall W1, it may be directly screwed here. Further, in the case of a material having low strength, it may be screwed to a portion provided with a reinforcing plate or the like on the back surface thereof.

The front side of the support plate 44 is integrally fixed to a pair of pillars 41, and a through hole 44A for communicating the upper pipe U (see FIG. 5) of the washing water tank 2A is opened in the central portion. ..

The foot plate 45 is for stably holding the frame 4 on the floor surface F, is installed at the lower end of each pillar 41, and is integrally formed in length from the lower end toward the rear wall W1. ..

The decorative plate 5 serves as an outer surface (housing) of the toilet cabinet 1 installed in the inner part of the toilet room 1. The decorative plate 5 accommodates the washing water tank 2A, the upper pipe U, the lower pipe D, and the like so as not to be exposed in the toilet room 1. The decorative plate 5 of the present embodiment is composed of a front plate 51 arranged between the washing water tank 2A and the toilet body 3 via the frame 4A, and an upper plate 52. Since the decorative plate 5 of the present embodiment is installed over the entire width direction of the toilet room 1, the left and right side plates are shielded by the left and right side walls W2, and are not necessary.

Of the decorative plates 5, the front plate 51 is screwed to the column 41 with a countersunk screw (not shown), so that the column 41 is formed with screw holes 41A in advance. On the other hand, the front plate 51 is formed with a screw hole (not shown) similar to the screw hole 41A at a position corresponding to the screw hole 41A. This screw hole is hidden from the outside by closing it from the outside with a screw cap (not shown). When, for example, a tapping screw or a drill screw is used, it is not necessary to cut a female screw like the above-mentioned screw hole, and a simple through hole (that is, a through hole or a pilot hole) may be used.

The upper plate 52 is arranged so as to be locked to the upper surface of the pillar 41 and the upper surface of the abutting plate 43 with the back surface abutting against the rear wall W1, and is screwed to the front plate 51 with a wood screw or the like. There is. Also in this case, the same screw cap or the like is used to hide the screws or the like from the outside.

As described above, the washing water tank 2 of the present embodiment is provided with a recess 23 penetrating in the vertical direction with both left and right corners on the front side facing the toilet body 3. The prism 41 of the frame 4 is arranged so as to enter these recesses 23. Therefore, for example, as shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B, the pillar 41 of the frame 4 does not have to be arranged in a protruding state on the front surface of the washing water tank 2. Therefore, the toilet cabinet 1 can be made thinner only by the depth dimension ΔX of the pillar 41 (see FIGS. 4 and 5B).

Further, according to the present embodiment, the pillar body of the frame 4 is not provided between the rear wall W1 at the back of the toilet room T. Therefore, a free space is formed in the back of the toilet cabinet 1. As a result, for example, there is no obstacle in the installation / connection work of the pipes, the workability is improved, and the pipes can be easily handled.

Further, according to the present embodiment, in the frame 4A made of a rigid metal such as steel installed in a state close to the washing water tank 2A, the pillar 41 substantially contacts the washing water tank 2. Or is in a state close to contact. Therefore, the humidity and cold air from the washing water tank 2 are easily propagated to the outside due to the influence of the washing water stored in the washing water tank 2. As a result, there is a possibility that dew condensation such as water droplets may frequently occur on the prism 41 in particular. However, the pillar 41 is arranged so as to vertically penetrate the recess 23 of the washing water tank 2A. Therefore, the prism 41 facing the washing water tank 2 does not stop in the middle even if dew condensation is collected to form dew water. Therefore, even when the prism 41 is made of steel or the like, corrosion such as rust does not occur.

Further, according to the present embodiment, the frame 4A has an open shape in which nothing is formed on the front surface side. Therefore, when the decorative plate 5 is not installed, not only the installation work of the washing water tank 2A and the connection work with the piping can be easily performed, but also the maintenance management and the repair work are easy.

(Second embodiment)
Next, a second embodiment of the toilet cab net according to the present invention will be described.
The difference between the toilet cabinet of the present embodiment and the toilet cabinet 1 of the first embodiment is the shape of the frame.

FIG. 7 is a perspective view showing a main part of the frame 4B of the toilet cabinet according to the present embodiment. In this frame 4B, the support plate 46 is formed in a substantially inverted U shape in a plan view. That is, the support plate 44 of the first embodiment has a through hole 44A formed in the central portion, but the support plate 46 of the present embodiment has a U-shaped opening 46A that functions as a substitute for the through hole. Is forming. The front side of the U-shaped opening 46A is open. Therefore, it can also function as a work window for easily performing the installation work of the washing water tank, the pipe connection work, and the subsequent maintenance management and inspection / repair work.

Therefore, according to the present embodiment, as described above, the U-shaped opening 46A can be used to easily perform the cleaning water tank installation work, the pipe connection work, and the subsequent maintenance and repair / inspection work. Further, in the present embodiment, since the support plate 46 of the frame 4B has a U-shaped cutout shape, it is possible to reduce the cost and the weight.

(Third embodiment)
Next, a third embodiment of the toilet cabinet according to the present invention will be described.
The difference between the toilet cabinet of the present embodiment and the toilet cabinet 1 of the first embodiment is the shape of the washing water tank.

(1st example)
FIG. 8 shows the wash water tanks 2B and 2C of the toilet cabinet according to the present embodiment. In the washing water tank 2B of the first example shown in the figure (a), two recesses 26 are formed in the front middle portion in both the main body portion 24 and the lid portion 25, and the frame 4C is formed here. The pillar 41C is arranged.
The frame 4C used here is different from the frame 4A of the first embodiment, and the left and right prisms 41C are close to each other, but the other shapes and configurations are the frame of the first embodiment. It is the same as 4A.

Therefore, according to the first example of the present embodiment, the frame 4C can be arranged so as to enter the recess 26 of the washing water tank 2B. That is, when the washing water tank 2B is mounted on a support plate (not shown) of the frame 4C, the pillar 41C of the frame 4C is arranged to enter the washing water tank 2B. Therefore, as in the first embodiment, the dimension of the toilet cabinet in the depth direction can be reduced, and the thickness can be reduced.

Further, according to the washing water tank 2B and the frame 4C of the first embodiment of the present embodiment, the washing water tank 2B is slightly protruding from the support plate to the left and right and is supported by the frame 4C. Therefore, when installing the washing water tank 2B, the washing water tank 2B can be mounted on the support plate of the frame 4C while being held by both hands. Therefore, the loading work on the frame 4C can be easily performed as compared with the one of the first embodiment.

(2nd example)
In the washing water tank 2C of the second example shown in FIG. 2B, recesses 27A and 28A are formed in both the left and right corners (corner regions) on the front surface of both the main body 27 and the lid 28. not only. That is, in the lower part of the main body portion 27, lateral recesses 27B are formed in which both the left and right sides are completely scraped from the front surface to the back surface.

On the other hand, in the frame 4D holding this type of washing water tank 2C, the left and right pillars 41D may be independently separated. In that case, instead of the support plate 44 in the first embodiment, a flat plate-shaped arm 44D is projected from each prism 41D. Further, each prism 41D is provided with an arm plate (not shown) having a width similar to that of the arm plate 42 in the first embodiment on the upper portion of the arm 44D, and a first arm plate is provided at the tip of the arm plate. It forms the same as the abutting plate of the embodiment. Further, on each of the pillars 41D of the frame 4D, a foot plate similar to the foot plate 45 of the first embodiment is also formed at the lower end.

Therefore, in the second example shown in FIG. 2B, when the left and right pillars 41D are separated from each other, the left and right frames 41D are first stably held in a state of being erected at a predetermined interval. Let me. Next, for example, the left and right protruding portions of the washing water tank 2C are picked up with both hands and mounted on both arms 44D. That is, the washing water tank 2D can be installed on the frame 4D by aligning and mounting the side recesses 27B of the main body 27 in the left and right projecting states and the arm 44D of each frame 4D.

Also in the second example, since the pillar 41D of the frame 4D is arranged so as to enter the front side of the washing water tank 2C, the toilet cabinet can be made thinner by that amount. Further, according to this second example, since the pillar 41D of the washing water tank 2C is divided into two, it is easy to transport the washing water tank 2C to the work site. In addition, since it is possible to bundle two pillars and the like for storage until the installation work is performed, it is convenient in terms of storage space.

Further, in this second example, by providing the side recesses 27B of the washing water tank 2C, protruding portions that can be easily grasped by hand are substantially formed on the left and right sides of the washing water tank. Therefore, it is convenient for transportation.
