DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0008]
1 to 4, the human body local cleaning device 10 includes a casing 12 placed on the rear upper edge 11 a of the toilet 11. On one side in the longitudinal direction of the casing 12 (left and right direction in FIG. 1), a protruding portion 13 is formed that protrudes forward and downward by a predetermined length. As is well known, a toilet seat 15 and a toilet lid 16 are rotatably mounted in front of the casing 12 by hinge pins (not shown). Inside the casing 12, a tank (not shown) for storing warm water as cleaning water, a control unit 20 as a microcomputer, a local cleaning device 30, a local drying device 40 and a deodorizing device 50 are accommodated. Thus, the control unit 20 is activated when the operation switch 21 installed on the protruding portion 13 is turned on, and the local cleaning device 30, the local drying device 40, and the deodorizing device 50 are Although it is under the control of the control unit 20 and is not shown in the figure, as is well known, the local cleaning device 30, the local drying device 40, and the deodorizing device are operated by operating each function switch installed on the protruding portion 13. 50 is activated.
[0009]
The casing 12 also houses a leakage protection device 70 interposed between the power source 60 and the control unit 20, the local cleaning device 30, the local drying device 40, and the deodorizing device 50.
[0010]
On the other side of the bottom portion 14 of the casing 12, that is, on the side opposite to the protruding portion 13, a space portion 15 is formed so as to open to face the rear upper edge portion 11 a of the toilet 11. The space portion 15 is located on the rear side of the casing 12 and has a substantially L-shape and a shallow first shape so as to open to both the deep first portion 15a and the other end surface of the bottom portion 14 to the first portion 15a. It consists of two parts 15b. In order to form such a space 15, a first portion 14 a (second portion 14 b) that forms a bottom plate of the first portion 15 a (second portion 15 b) of the space portion 15 is formed on the bottom portion 14 of the casing 12. Formed. The first portion 14a of the bottom plate portion 14 which is the bottom plate of the first portion 15a of the space portion 15 is connected to the tip of the power line 80 extending from the leakage protection device 70 so that the power supply is the same as that of the local cleaning device 30. The first connector 85 is fixed. The axis of the first connector 85 is substantially perpendicular to the first portion 14 a of the bottom portion 14.
[0011]
The mounting surface 91a of the housing 91 of the hot air heating unit 90, which is an additional unit, is in contact with the other side of the casing 12, that is, the surface opposite to the protruding portion 13, so that the housing 91 is attached and detached via the bracket 88. It is connected to the other side of the casing 12 as possible. A housing 91 of the warm air heating unit 90 houses a warm air device 92 and a control unit 93 that is a microcomputer for controlling the warm air device 92, and the warm air device 92 operates an operation switch 94. The operation is started and stopped by. A cord 95 electrically connected to the warm air device 92 through the control unit 93 extends from the mounting surface 91a of the housing 91 in a manner substantially perpendicular to the mounting surface 91a, and is formed on the bottom 14 of the casing 12. It passes through the second part 15 b of the space part 15 and reaches the first part 15 a of the space part 15. Thus, the second connector 96 is connected to the distal end portion of the cord 95, and the second connector 96 is located in the first portion 15a of the space portion 15 at a position separated from the toilet rear upper edge portion 11a. Connected to the first connector 85.
[0012]
The cord 95 positioned in the second portion 15b of the space portion 15 is formed in the bottom portion 14 of the casing 12 and has a mode in which substantially half of the width of the opening of the second portion 15b of the space portion 15 is blocked. The pair of claws 14p are used to prevent the slipping, and the toilet bowl rear upper edge portion 11a is not in contact with the toilet bowl at all times. Thus, in actual assembly, the entire cord 95 gets over the claw 14p and is inserted into the second portion 15b of the space portion 15.
[0013]
In addition, an additional unit is not restricted to a warm air heating unit, An air cleaner and a deodorizing apparatus may be sufficient.
[0014]
