In addition, the illumination device 2 is maintained in a lit state even after the user's fingers are out of the illumination detection range S2. Furthermore, when the user's finger enters the illumination detection range S2 again while the lighting device 2 is on, the lighting device 2 is turned off.

Next, with reference to FIG. 4, control of the water discharging device 6 and the lighting device 2 in the bathroom vanity 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described.
FIG. 4 is a block diagram showing control of the water discharging device 6 and the lighting device 2 in one embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in FIG. 4, the control unit 18 includes a control board 20 and a power supply board 22. On the control board 20, a sensor control unit 20a, a lighting control unit 20b, and an electromagnetic valve control unit 20c are provided. there is Specifically, the sensor control unit 20a, the lighting control unit 20b, and the electromagnetic valve control unit 20c are composed of a microprocessor, a memory, an interface circuit, and software for operating them (not shown). there is Also, the control board 20 is connected to the lighting sensor 16, the water discharge sensor 6c, the lighting device 2, the electromagnetic valve 6f, and the power supply board 22, respectively.

A sensor control unit 20 a on the control board 20 transmits a detection state confirmation signal to the lighting sensor 16 . In response to this detection state confirmation signal, the lighting sensor 16 sends a detection signal indicating whether or not the finger of the user has entered the lighting detection range S2 to the sensor control section 20a. Based on this detection signal, the lighting control unit 20b on the control board 20 sends an instruction signal instructing start/stop of current application to the lighting device 2 to turn the lighting device 2 on or off.

Further, the sensor control section 20a on the control board 20 transmits a detection state confirmation signal to the water discharge sensor 6c. In response to this detection state confirmation signal, the water discharge sensor 6c sends to the sensor control section 20a a detection signal indicating whether or not the finger of the user has entered the water discharge stop detection range S1. Based on this detection signal, the electromagnetic valve control section 20c on the control board 20 sends an instruction signal for opening and closing the electromagnetic valve 6f to the electromagnetic valve 6f, thereby opening and closing the electromagnetic valve 6f of the water discharging device 6. FIG. The solenoid valve 6f is accommodated in the shelf 14 as a part of the functional part of the water discharging device 6, and when opened, water is discharged from the water discharge port 6e of the water discharging device main body 6a.

Next, detection of the user's fingers by the water discharge sensor 6c and the lighting sensor 16 will be described with reference to FIG.
FIG. 5 is a graph showing an example of received infrared light values detected by the lighting sensor 16 when the finger of the user is brought close to the lighting sensor 16. As shown in FIG. In addition, although the detection of the user's fingers by the lighting sensor 16 provided in the embodiment of the present invention will be described below, the same applies to the detection of the fingers by the water discharge sensor 6c.

As described above, the illumination sensor 16 irradiates the infrared light so as to spread forward and obliquely downward in a generally conical shape (FIGS. 2 and 3). When the infrared light emitted from the illumination sensor 16 strikes an object, the infrared light reflected by the object returns to the illumination sensor 16, and the reflected light is received by the illumination sensor 16. The approach is detected by the lighting sensor 16 . FIG. 5 is a graph showing the relationship between the distance when the user brings the palm close to the illumination sensor 16 and the light reception value of the reflected light received by the illumination sensor 16 (intensity of received infrared light). It should be noted that the received light value of the illumination sensor 16 varies depending on the size, color, reflectance, and the like of the object brought close. The graph shown in FIG. 5 shows the received light value of the reflected light from the illumination sensor 16 when the center of the human palm is positioned so as to be perpendicular to the central axis of the substantially conical infrared light emitted from the illumination sensor 16. is shown.

As shown in FIG. 5, the received light value of the lighting sensor 16 decreases as the distance to the approached object (human palm) increases, and increases as the distance to the lighting sensor 16 increases. Therefore, even when the distance from the illumination sensor 16 to the object is relatively long, the light sensor 16 detects the received light value. In this embodiment, when an object is not placed in the irradiation direction of the infrared light from the illumination sensor 16, the reflected light from the surface of the bowl portion 10 is received by the illumination sensor 16, and the received light value at this time is is "13". As described above, when the distance from the illumination sensor 16 to the object is long, the received light value becomes very small. Therefore, in this embodiment, the limit of the detection distance is about 20 cm.

Here, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the threshold Th for the received light value is set to "90". This threshold value Th corresponds to the received light value when the center of a person's palm approaches a distance of 9 cm on the central axis of the infrared light emitted from the illumination sensor 16 . That is, in the present embodiment, the sensor control section 20a of the control section 18 detects that the user's finger is within the predetermined illumination detection range S2 when the light receiving value detected by the illumination sensor 16 becomes "90" or more. I judge that. That is, the illumination sensor 16 outputs a detection signal indicating that the finger of the user has entered the illumination detection range S2 to the sensor control section 20a when the light reception value becomes "90" or more. When this detection signal is input to the sensor control section 20a, the lighting control section 20b outputs an instruction signal to the lighting device 2 to turn the lighting device 2 on or off. In this manner, the illumination detection range S2 can be set to a desired range by setting the threshold value of the received light value in the control section 18 .

Similarly, for the water discharge sensor 6c, the threshold of the received light value of the water discharge sensor 6c is set so that it can be detected that the finger of the user has entered the predetermined water discharge detection range S1. As described above, in the present embodiment, the stop water detection range S1 of the water discharge sensor 6c and the lighting detection range S2 of the lighting sensor 16 are each set to a predetermined range by setting the threshold value of the received light value.

Next, as shown in FIG. 3, the illumination detection range S2 of the illumination sensor 16 and the discharge stop water detection range S1 of the water discharge sensor 6c partly overlap when viewed from the side, and at least part of the illumination detection range S2 is , in the direction of water discharge from the water discharge port 6e (the direction of the central axis C of the water discharger main body 6a), and obliquely downward from the water discharge tip surface 6d. Therefore, the user can operate the lighting device 2 without extending the hand to the back of the washing area.
