Description

  The present invention relates to a cooling apparatus for a flush toilet provided with a cooling apparatus for directly cooling a toilet space or a human body.

Conventionally, a cooling device that uses a refrigeration cycle and uses washing water in a water tank as a cooling means for the condenser is already known (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 63-190373

  However, in the conventional configuration, the evaporator and the blower connected by the compressor and the refrigerant pipe are directly attached to the cold air blowing portion of the outer case that houses the water tank, so that the vibration of the compressor is passed from the outer case to the toilet bowl. Therefore, there is a problem in that it causes discomfort during cooling due to vibrations and abnormal noises generated by the vibration.

  This invention solves the said conventional subject, and aims at provision of the cooling apparatus for flush toilets for obtaining a comfortable toilet space during cooling use.

In order to solve the conventional problems, flush toilets for cooling apparatus of the present invention, a cooling apparatus having a compressor, a condenser, a pressure reducing means and an evaporator and a blower, being immersed in the condenser and the toilet A water tank for storing the wash water, a cold air outlet, and a wind tunnel for guiding the cold air from the blower to the cold air outlet, so that the wind tunnel and the cold air outlet are not in contact with each other.

  Accordingly, since the wind tunnel and the cold air outlet are not in contact with each other, it is possible to reduce the vibration of the compressor of the cooling device from being transmitted to the outer case, and it is possible to obtain a comfortable toilet space during use of the cooling.

  The cooling apparatus for a flush toilet according to the present invention can reduce the vibration of the compressor of the cooling apparatus from being transmitted to the outer case, and can provide a comfortable toilet space during cooling use.

The first invention is a cooling device comprising a compressor, a condenser, a decompression means, an evaporator, and a blower, a water tank for submerging the condenser and storing flush water for the toilet, a cold air outlet, By providing a cooling device for a flush toilet comprising a wind tunnel that guides the cold air from the blower to the cold air outlet, and the air tunnel and the cold air outlet are not in contact with each other, the wind tunnel and the cold air outlet are Since it does not abut, it is possible to reduce the vibration of the compressor of the cooling device from being transmitted to the outer case, to provide a comfortable toilet space during cooling use, and to make the wind tunnel material a hard material such as metal Even if it is replaced, it will have a corresponding effect.

In the second invention, in particular, the outer shape of the wind tunnel according to the first invention is formed smaller than the connection opening portion with the cold air outlet, so that the outer shape of the wind tunnel is taken into consideration. The vibration can be reduced from being transmitted to the outer case, and a comfortable toilet space can be obtained during cooling use.

According to the third aspect of the invention, in particular, the end of the wind tunnel according to the first or second aspect is arranged on the inner side of the end face of the connection portion of the cold air outlet, so that the arrangement of the end face of the wind tunnel is considered. The vibration of the compressor of the apparatus can be reduced from being transmitted to the outer case, and a comfortable toilet space can be obtained during cooling use, and the cold air hardly leaks, and the assembly is good.

In the fourth invention, in particular, the cooling device and the water tank according to any one of the first to third inventions are housed in the outer case, and the cooling air outlet is provided in the outer case. Considering the arrangement of the cold air outlets, in combination with the configuration of each invention, the vibration of the compressor of the cooling device can be reduced from being transmitted to the outer case, and a comfortable toilet space can be provided while using the cooling system. Obtainable.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In addition, this invention is not limited by this embodiment.

(Embodiment)
FIGS. 1-7 shows the cooling apparatus for flush toilets in embodiment of this invention.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the cooling device 1 includes a compressor 2, a condenser 3, a decompression unit 4, and an evaporator 5 that are piped by a refrigerant pipe 6 to form a refrigeration cycle. The condenser 2 is submerged and stored in an outer case 9 of a water tank 8 for storing water for washing the toilet 12.

  The wall of the outer case 9 is provided with a cold air outlet 10, and the cold air outlet 10 and the blower 7 are communicated with each other through a wind tunnel 11. The wind tunnel 11 is formed of a flexible material, for example, a flexible material such as rubber or resin, and further, a vibration isolating member 12 is provided at a lower portion of the compressor 2 with the cooling device fixing base 13. Yes.

  In the present embodiment configured as described above, the vibration of the cooling device 1 and the compressor 2 generated simultaneously with the start-up is reduced from being transmitted to the outer case 9 by the vibration isolating member 12 and the flexible wind tunnel 11. The comfort during cooling can be improved.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the vibration of the compressor 2 of the cooling device 1 is generated in the outer case 9 by forming the wind tunnel 11 in a flexible shape such as a bellows shape so as to have a flexible characteristic. Transmission can be reduced and a comfortable toilet space can be obtained during cooling use.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 6, by configuring the space so that the wind tunnel 11 and the cold air outlet 10 do not contact each other, the wind tunnel 11 and the cold air outlet 10 do not contact each other. The vibration can be reduced from being transmitted to the outer case, and a comfortable toilet space can be obtained during cooling use. In particular, by forming the outer shape of the wind tunnel 11 to be smaller than the connection opening with the cold air outlet 10, it is possible to further reduce the vibration of the compressor 2 of the cooling device 1 from being transmitted to the outer case 9. In this case, it goes without saying that the inner diameter area of the wind tunnel 11 is made larger than the blower opening area of the blower 7 to reduce the pressure loss.

  Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 7, by arranging the end surface 11a of the connection portion of the wind tunnel 11 on the inner side of the connection portion end surface 10a with the cold air outlet 10, the cold air is hardly leaked and connection in assembly can be easily performed. The structure can be made easy and the vibration of the compressor 2 of the cooling device 1 can be reduced from being transmitted to the outer case 9.

  Further, if the wind tunnel 11 and the cold air outlet 10 are not in contact with each other, it is needless to say that workability and cost are required even if the material of the wind tunnel 11 is replaced with a hard material such as metal. Different materials and configurations can be used depending on the nature.

  As described above, the cooling apparatus for flush toilet according to the present invention can reduce the vibration of the compressor of the cooling apparatus from being transmitted to the outer case, and can provide a comfortable toilet space during cooling use. Therefore, it is useful as a cooling device for toilets.
