DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an apparatus for cleaning a local part of a human body, and more particularly, to an operation switch for preventing water entering from a gap between an operation switch and a housing from being applied to an electronic control circuit. For waterproofing means.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a human body local cleaning apparatus having a waterproof means in an operation switch section, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 3-29427 is disclosed.
There is a number. In this conventional technique, the operation switch head is inserted into the insertion hole provided in the housing, and the operation switch head is further provided with a pressing portion surface material adhered and fixed on the upper surface of the insertion hole and the periphery thereof. Was operated by pressing the surface material of the pressing portion.

[0003]

However, in the above-mentioned prior art, when a person operates the push part surface material, the push part surface material is pushed. However, since an operation switch is interposed between the push part surface material and the switch device. Due to the pressing member surface material and the operation switch, the gap between the operation switch and the switch device, etc., it is difficult for the operation force of a person to be transmitted to the switch device, resulting in a poor operation feeling. Therefore, by eliminating the pusher surface material, a person presses the operation switch so that the force of the person is directly applied to the switch device, thereby improving the operational feeling.

However, if a gap is provided between the housing and the operation switch as described above, water or the like (hereinafter referred to as water) may enter the housing from the gap when the housing is cleaned. Therefore, an operation switch and a cover that covers the gap are provided integrally with the housing so that water does not enter the housing from the gap, and the operation switch and the housing are integrated in appearance to prevent water from entering the gap. However, in this case, when a person operates the operation switch, the operation switch is indirectly operated via the cover, so that there is a disadvantage that the operational feeling is dull.

Therefore, a technical problem with respect to claim 1 is as follows.
An object of the present invention is to prevent a failure in a control device due to a short circuit of an electronic circuit due to a good operation feeling and water entering the housing through a gap between the housing and an operation switch.

Further, when water that has entered the housing through a gap between the housing and the operation switch passes through the inner surface of the housing and adheres to the light emitting portion, the water is transmitted from the light emitting portion to the operation switch board formed of an electronic circuit. And the electronic circuit may be short-circuited.

Therefore, a technical problem with respect to claim 2 is as follows.
An object of the present invention is to prevent a failure of a control device due to a short circuit of an electronic circuit due to water entering a housing through a gap between the housing and an operation switch.

Configuration of the Invention

[0009]

According to the first aspect of the present invention, there is provided an electronic control circuit for controlling a temperature of a toilet seat and a temperature of washing water which is disposed inside the housing. An operation switch for selecting a toilet seat temperature, a washing water temperature and the like and freely moving between the housing, an operation switch board having an electronic control circuit provided with an operation switch and a light emitting unit, and an operation switch board disposed on the operation switch board. A human body local cleaning device including a switch device operated by a person via an operation switch includes a tray integrally formed with the operation switch in the housing and configured to receive water and the like.

The technical measures taken to solve the technical problem in claim 2 are a housing, an electronic control circuit disposed inside the housing for controlling the temperature of the toilet seat and the temperature of the washing water, the temperature of the toilet seat and the cleaning. An operation switch for selecting a water temperature or the like and freely moving between the housing, a light emitting unit provided near the operation switch and emitting light in conjunction with the operation switch, an operation switch, a light emitting unit, etc. are provided and an electronic control circuit is provided. In a human body local cleaning apparatus including an operation switch board and a switch device arranged on the operation switch board and operated by a person via an operation switch, water is disposed on an upper part of the light emitting unit to prevent water or the like from splashing on the light emitting unit. That is, a transparent waterproof means is provided.

[0011]

The operation of the first aspect will be described. By providing a receiving tray integrally formed with the operation switch in the housing and receiving water or the like, water that has entered the housing from the gap between the switch window and the operation switch is received by the receiving tray and hangs on the operation switch board. Is prevented. Furthermore, since it is an operation switch that freely moves between the housing for selecting the toilet seat temperature and the washing water temperature,
The operation force of a person is directly applied to the switch device, and the operation feeling is good.

Next, the operation of claim 2 will be described.
Water provided on the light-emitting part, which is disposed above the light-emitting part and prevents water from splashing on the operation switch board and is provided with a waterproof means made of a transparent body, is provided with a transparent waterproof part. The water is received by the means and is prevented from adhering to the light emitting part. Therefore, it is possible to prevent water from adhering to the operation switch board, and to prevent a short circuit of the electronic circuit. Further, since the light is transparent, the light from the light emitting unit is not obstructed.
