Description

本発明は、用便後の人体の局部を温水で洗う洗浄手段と、洗浄した前記局部を温風で乾かす乾燥手段とを備えたトイレ装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a toilet apparatus provided with a cleaning means for washing a local part of a human body after toilet with warm water and a drying means for drying the washed local part with warm air.

従来この種のトイレ装置としては、例えば、人体の局部を洗浄する洗浄手段と、前記局部を温風により乾かす加熱手段と乾燥用送風機を有する乾燥手段とを備え、前記乾燥手段の吹出口には、前記吹出口を覆う大きさで、前記吹き出口上方に回動自在に保持されたシャッターを備えているものがあった(例えば、特許文献1参照)。   Conventionally, this type of toilet device includes, for example, a cleaning means for cleaning a local part of a human body, a heating means for drying the local part with warm air, and a drying means having a drying blower. In some cases, the shutter has a size that covers the air outlet and is rotatably held above the air outlet (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

これは、図6、図7に示すように、乾燥手段1の吹出口2には、吹出口2を覆うように
、シャッター3が回動軸4を中心に回動自在に設けられており、局部洗浄後の局部乾燥時、乾燥手段1を作動させると、加熱手段5と乾燥用送風機6が作動し、その風圧によってシャッター3が回動軸4を中心に開き、温風が局部へ向かって吹き付けられていた。
特開昭64−90332号公報
This is because, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the blower outlet 2 of the drying means 1 is provided with a shutter 3 so as to be rotatable around a rotary shaft 4 so as to cover the blower outlet 2. When the drying means 1 is operated at the time of local drying after the local cleaning, the heating means 5 and the drying fan 6 are operated, and the shutter 3 is opened around the rotating shaft 4 by the wind pressure, and the hot air is directed toward the local area. It was sprayed.
JP-A 64-90332

しかしながら、前記従来の構成では、吹出口2からの温風は人体の臀部に沿って流れようとするため、着座時、シャッター3の開きが大きくなり、温風が肛門7付近の局部に当たる前に、臀部後部8に当たるので、臀部後部8が熱くなったり、肛門7付近に温風が当たらなかったりするという問題があった。   However, in the conventional configuration, since the warm air from the air outlet 2 tends to flow along the buttocks of the human body, the opening of the shutter 3 becomes large when sitting, and before the warm air hits a local area near the anus 7 Since it hits the buttock rear part 8, there is a problem that the buttock rear part 8 becomes hot or the hot air does not hit the vicinity of the anus 7.

本発明は、前記従来の課題を解決するもので、着座時、非着座時にかかわらずシャッターの開度を規制することによって、局部乾燥時の乾燥性能を向上させたトイレ装置の提供を目的とする。   The present invention solves the above-described conventional problems, and an object thereof is to provide a toilet apparatus that improves the drying performance at the time of local drying by regulating the opening of the shutter regardless of whether it is seated or not. .

前記従来の課題を解決するために、本発明のトイレ装置は、乾燥手段の吹出口に、吹出口を覆う大きさで、前記吹出口上方に回動自在に保持されたシャッターを設けるとともに、前記シャッターの開度規制手段を配設し、前記開度規制手段は開度を調節可能としたものである。   In order to solve the above-described conventional problems, the toilet apparatus of the present invention is provided with a shutter, which is sized to cover the air outlet and is rotatably held above the air outlet, at the air outlet of the drying unit, A shutter opening restricting means is provided, and the opening restricting means can adjust the opening.

これにより、シャッターの開度が規制され、乾燥すべき局部に温風を当てることによって、乾燥性能を向上させたものである。   Thereby, the opening degree of the shutter is regulated, and the drying performance is improved by applying hot air to the part to be dried.

本発明のトイレ装置は、シャッターの開度を規制して、乾燥すべき局部に温風を当てることによって、乾燥性能を向上させることができる。   The toilet apparatus of the present invention can improve the drying performance by regulating the opening of the shutter and applying hot air to the local area to be dried.
