DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of the toilet device according to the present invention,
FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along line 2-2 of FIG.

A toilet bowl 1 has a bowl portion 3 partitioned by a partition wall 2.
And a trap drainage channel 4. Trap drainage channel 4
Connects an inflow port 5 formed in the lower portion of the rear wall of the bowl portion 3 and an outflow port 6 formed in the rear bottom surface of the toilet 1 in a substantially inverted U-shape. The trap drainage channel 4 has a crank-shaped drainage channel 4b downstream of the weir portion 4a.

Further, the toilet 1 is communicated with the bowl 3 through an opening 7a which opens below the water sealing surface of the bowl 3.
The water reservoir 7 is provided separately from a toilet flushing means described later . The reservoir 7 has an upper part open to the atmosphere through a small hole 7b, and communicates with a water supply source through a ball tap 8, and a lower part communicates with the bowl 3 through the opening 7a. ing.

Water supply and water supply stop are performed in the water reservoir 7.
The ball tap 8 opens and closes at the water level in the pool 7 of the floating ball 8a.
Controlled. That is, the floating ball 8a stores water (sealed) in the bowl portion 3.
The water level in the sump 7 indicates the water level linked to the water level.
The ball tap 8 opens and closes due to the vertical movement of the floating ball 8a.
You. When the floating ball 8a descends to wl1, the valve portion (not shown) of the ball tap 8 opens , and water is automatically supplied from the water supply source to the reservoir 7, and when water reaches the predetermined water level wl2, the floating ball is released. valve portion is configured to automatically feed water stops closed by 8a buoyancy of. Here, the amount of drop of the floating ball required to operate the ball tap (the difference between wl2 and wl1)
It may be any value if it is less than 50 mm.

A rim water passage 10 is formed in the rim 9 at the upper peripheral edge of the bowl portion 3 so as to protrude inward of the bowl portion 3, and a rim injection hole 11 is formed in the bottom surface of the rim water passage 10. It is opened obliquely with respect to the bowl portion 3 at appropriate intervals.

Further, a water supply pipe 12 is connected to a rim water supply chamber 16 communicating with the rim water passage 10 via a water stop valve 13, a water supply valve 14, and an atmosphere release valve 15.

The water supply valve 14 is provided with a handle (not shown) for starting the flushing of the toilet 1. When the handle is operated, the flush water is supplied to the bowl portion 3 to flush the water and maintain a predetermined water level. Water sealing is performed and these rim waterways 10,
The rim injection hole 11 and the water supply pipe 12 are connected to the water stop valve 13 and the water supply valve 14.
This constitutes a toilet flushing means.

Since the toilet apparatus according to the present invention has the above-described configuration, it operates as follows. When the handle is operated, toilet bowl cleaning means is provided from the rim injection hole 11 of the rim water passage 9 at the most downstream part to the bowl part 3 from the water supply source .
Washing water is supplied, the siphon action is generated in the trap drainage 4.

The water level of the bowl portion 3 becomes lower than the lower end 2a of the partition wall 2 and the air flows into the trap drainage channel 4 to terminate the siphon. It is held at WL2.

The above operation is repeated every time the handle is operated. However, when the toilet bowl is not supplied with flush water for a long time due to a long trip or the like, the sealed water stored in the bowl portion 3 is reduced by evaporation or siphon action. Water level WL at the sealing surface
2 gradually decreases to, for example, a position WL1 indicated by a dashed line in FIG. At the same time, the bowl 3
The water level of the reservoir 7 communicating with the water also gradually decreases to a position wl1 (= WL1) indicated by a dashed line in FIG.

Then, the floating ball 8a also lowers with a decrease in the water level of the reservoir 7, so that the valve of the ball tap 8 opens, and the cleaning water is supplied from the water supply source to the reservoir 7.

When the washing water is replenished, the water level of the water storage section 7 gradually rises, and at the same time, the water level of the sealing surface of the bowl section 3 communicating with the water storage section 7 via the water conduit 17 has the same height. Just rise.

That is, when the water level of the reservoir 7 rises to a predetermined sealing surface position wl2 indicated by a solid line in FIG. 2, the valve closes and the water supply stops, so that the sealing surface of the bowl 3 also changes as shown in FIG. A predetermined position WL2 (= wl2) indicated by a solid line is reached, and the water sealing surface is always maintained at a constant water level.

The position of the reservoir 7 is not limited to the position shown in this embodiment, but may be any position that can ensure the same water level as the bowl.
