2. Description of the Related Art A sanitary washing apparatus having a local washing function integrated with a toilet bowl has been conventionally used. This sanitary washing device was generally incorporated as a separate body from the toilet body and the washing water tank integrally attached thereto. Instead of this type, the entire sanitary washing device and the washing water tank are housed in one casing, and the toilet seat and toilet lid are integrally connected to this casing, and the casing is placed on the toilet body and fixed. Some have done it. FIG. 11 shows the mounting structure.

[0003] As shown in FIG.
Has four mounting holes 51 and a pipe hole 52 through which a drain pipe of a washing water tank passes through a mounting surface 50c having the same height as the rim 50b surrounding the ball 50a. On the other hand, a bolt 55a is provided on the lower surface of a casing 55 in which a functional part of a sanitary washing device for local washing and a washing water tank are accommodated and a toilet seat 53 and a toilet lid 54 are integrated as shown in FIG. I have. The casing 55 is placed on the installation surface 50c, and the bolt 55a integrated with the casing 55 is passed through the mounting hole 51, and at the same time, the drain pipe 5 protruding from the bottom surface of the washing water tank.
The casing 55 is fixed to the toilet body 50 by passing 6 through the piping hole 52 and screwing the nut 55b to the bolt 55a.

As described above, even if the casing 55 becomes large, the casing 55 can be fixed to the toilet body 50 by using the four bolts 55a, and the appearance is good without exposing the washing water tank and other functional parts. Can be used as equipment.

[0005]

The sanitary washing device for local washing is provided with a valve unit for supplying washing water, a hot water tank and a nozzle device for jetting washing water, and a hot air used for drying after washing. It is provided with a number of devices such as a fan and a control unit for these devices. Therefore, in order to put such equipment and a large washing water tank together in the casing 55, it is necessary to increase the planar and spatial density of each equipment. From such a background, it is necessary to not only raise the casing 55 on the mounting surface 50c but also provide sleeves and the like hanging down on the left and right sides of the mounting surface 50c to increase the storage space. Have been. As the casing of the sleeve, there is a model that accommodates, for example, an operation panel of each device, a deodorizing fan, a deodorizing cassette, and the like.

When the size of the bottom surface of the casing 55 is larger than the mounting surface 50c of the toilet body 50, the mounting surface 50c is hidden by the casing 55 when the casing 55 is mounted on the mounting surface 50c. For this reason, when the bolt 55a is inserted into the mounting hole 51, the bolt 55a and the mounting hole 51 become invisible. Therefore, when working, a person holding the casing 55 and another person who checks the positions of the bolt 55a and the mounting hole 51 People are needed. Further, even when working with two people, if the bolt 55a is inserted obliquely into the mounting hole 51 due to the poor posture of the casing 55, the ceramic toilet body 50 may be damaged or the mounting hole 51 may be damaged. Cheap.

As described above, there is a problem in terms of workability in fixing a large casing incorporating a washing water tank or the like to the toilet body, and especially in a field work in a narrow toilet, only a space for working alone can be secured. In many cases, this problem is even more pronounced. Therefore, the amount and size of the devices to be accommodated in the casing are also limited, which may hinder the expansion of the functional units.

The problem to be solved in the present invention is to make it possible to easily fix the washing water tank and other functional parts attached to the toilet body to the toilet body and to cope with the expansion of the functional parts.
