BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention holds a bathroom chair suspended from a floor on a latch provided under a counter that opens below the side wall of the washing place to improve aesthetics, cleanability and hygiene, and at the washing place. The present invention relates to a hanging structure of a bathroom chair for improving workability.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, a washbasin used in a washroom such as a bathroom unit or a bathroom chair to be seated when washing the body has been placed on the floor without any specific place.
Recently, a counter has been provided on the bathroom side wall, and a basin is also provided to be placed on this. However, the bathroom chair is left on the floor, so It was in an environment where mixed sewage was frequently applied. Therefore, it is not preferable from the viewpoint of hygiene because it causes dirt to adhere to the floor and the vicinity of the installation surface or to cause slime.
In addition, bathroom chairs are both useless and obstructive when cleaning in the bathroom, and when taking showers throughout the bathroom, washing pets and leisure goods, etc.
[0003]
In order to solve the above problems, means shown in FIG. 3 of Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-155694 and FIG. 1 of Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 5-54394 have been proposed.
In consideration of the convenience and size of the bathroom, these chairs store bathroom chairs in a space under the counter provided on the side wall of the washroom.
However, in the above-mentioned means, since the bathroom chair is in contact with the floor surface of the washing place, the above-mentioned problems have not been solved fundamentally.
That is, even when stored, sewage mixed with soap and dirt stains the lower end of the leg and contact surface of the bathroom chair, and the installation surface is difficult to dry. When cleaning the washing area, it was troublesome because it was moved from under the counter.
In general, a shallow bowl-shaped drainage channel is formed under the counter to guide drainage from the washroom, but bathroom chairs tend to obstruct the flow.
[0004]
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 9-88359 (FIG. 7) discloses a means for hanging a bathroom chair on the wall surface of a washing place.
This is because the storage device 1 for the bathroom chair 3 is provided on the wall panel 2 on the washroom side, and the bathroom chair 3 has a box shape with an open bottom surface. The main body 4 has a main body 4 that accommodates a part thereof. The main body 4 has a triangular cross section having a top portion 5. Specifically, the main body 4 has a container shape in which a surface facing the top portion 5 is an opening 6. Yes.
When the peripheral side wall 3a of the bathroom chair 3 is hooked on the hook piece 5a so that the hook piece 5a is inserted from the open lower surface of the bathroom chair 3, the hook position of the peripheral side wall 3a by the hook piece 5a In the lower position, the outer surface of the peripheral side wall 3a is pressed downward (diagonally downward) by the pressing portion 5b, and is stored and held in the storage device 1 in a state in which the bathroom chair 3 is prevented from falling off. is there.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, since the outer surface of the peripheral side wall 3a of the bathroom chair 3 is pressed downward (diagonally downward) by the pressing portion 5b, it is stored and held in a downward (diagonally downward) dimension with respect to the sitting height of the bathroom chair 3. The Rukoto.
When the storage chair 1 is stored in and removed from the storage device 1, the size of the downward (diagonal downward) dimension is larger than the plane dimension of the bathroom chair 3, and the size of the storage and removal is larger than the downward (diagonal downward) dimension. .
[0006]
If this storage device 1 is mounted below the counter, for example, the height of the counter itself will be unnatural when used, and if the depth of the counter is not lengthened, it will protrude unnaturally to the front. As a result, the beauty will be impaired. In any case, since the bathroom chair 3 protrudes into the bathroom washing place with the stored and held state, it is inevitable that the bathroom chair 3 is accidentally contacted with the bathroom chair 3, and the bathroom chair 3 is deformed or injured. There was a fear.
In particular, recent bathroom chairs are large and large, so it is not appropriate to tilt and hang up, and it will lift up in an unnatural form, and it will protrude greatly toward the bathroom washing area. It can be said.
[0007]
