This Japanese style toilet has the advantages of a simple structure, a low overall height, and does not require a large space for installation, but has the drawback that it places a burden on the feet and waist when used, and particularly causes numbness in the feet. For this reason, some recent Western-style toilets have been used for buildings and houses.

[0003] Although this Western-style toilet is medically superior to a Japanese-style toilet and has the advantage of being easy to use even for the handicapped, it has a structure in which the human body directly contacts the toilet.
Some people have been shunned in terms of cleanliness, and many households still use Japanese toilets.

[0004] On the other hand, various Western-style stools for using Japanese-style toilets as Western-style toilets have been proposed, and are used for those who prefer Western-style toilets and those who are temporarily disabled. Most of these Western style stools are of the type in which the front cover of a Japanese-style toilet is set forward or backward. An improved configuration of the above-mentioned Western type stool is proposed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. Sho 62-36480.

As shown in FIG. 9, a circular hole 2 is opened on the upper surface of a horseshoe-shaped fixing portion main body 1 which is covered on a Japanese toilet using a flange 1a as shown in FIG. Utilizing the cutouts 2a, 2a, the protruding pieces 3a, 3a of the rotary unit main body 3 formed of a substantially cylindrical body are fitted, so that the rotary unit main body 3 is rotatable with respect to the fixed unit main body 1. After setting, the funnel-shaped seat body 4 is
Is inserted into the seat body 4 using the stays 4a, 4a.
Is fixed to the rotating section main body 3. Further, the flange 4 of the seat body 4
b, the toilet seat 5 and the lid 6 are connected to the shaft 7 and the bearing screw rod 8,
8 so that it can be opened and closed. Further, an appropriate notch is formed in the fixing portion main body 1 at a portion corresponding to the front cover of the Japanese style toilet.

According to such a Western style toilet, the rotating section main body 3 is set rotatably with respect to the fixed section main body 1, and the required seating height between the fixed section main body 1 and the rotating section main body 3 is ensured. The obtained Western style stool is obtained.

However, such conventional Western-type stools for Japanese-style toilet bowls have problems that the sealing performance is not perfect, and that they cannot always be satisfied both in terms of hygiene and prevention of odor diffusion. there were.

For example, in the case of the Western type stool shown in FIG.
Since the notch is formed in the fixed part main body 1 corresponding to the front cover part of the ordinary Japanese-style toilet, the notch reduces the hermeticity of the inside and outside of the fixed part main body 1, and the odor diffuses when not in use. In some cases, which is not preferable from the viewpoint of hygiene.

Therefore, the present invention solves the problems of the conventional Western-style stool for a Japanese-style toilet bowl, improves the hermeticity when not in use, and is preferable in terms of hygiene and prevention of odor diffusion. It is an object of the present invention to provide a fully-covered Western-type stool for a toilet.
