Hereinafter, embodiments and reference examples embodying the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings .

<Reference example>
As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, a warm water flush toilet seat 1 of a reference example is applied to a Western style flush toilet 8, and a main body 10 installed in a western style toilet body 9 and a main body 10 to a western style toilet body. 9 protrudes to the side, and has an operation unit 20 for operating at least a hot water tank 11 as a hot water supply source capable of ejecting hot water, and is installed on the floor surface 99 and extends upward to support the operation unit 20. And support means 30. The hot water tank 11 is installed on the main body 10 side.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the support unit 30 is a substantially rectangular cross-section hollow body made of resin, metal, wood, or other general material, and the operation unit 20 is in contact with the lower end of the operation unit 20 at the upper end. It is fixed, and the lower end is in contact with the floor surface 99 via the height adjusting spacer 31.

  A storage space 32 is formed in the hollow portion of the support means 30, and a power cord 81 extending from an outlet 80 installed on the wall is introduced into the storage space 32 from an opening 33 below the back surface of the support means 30. It is led to the inside of the upper operation unit 20. The power cord 81 is for supplying power to the main body 10 and the operation unit 20. Further, the water supply pipe 82 protruding from the wall is also introduced into the storage space 32 from the opening 33 below the back surface of the support means 30, passes through the inside of the upper operation unit 20, branches, and The hot water tank 11 and the western-style toilet body 9 are led to a low tank 91. The water supply pipe 82 is for supplying water to the western-style toilet body 9 and the hot water tank 11 from a water supply source.

The warm water washing toilet seat 1 of the reference example having such a configuration is fixed by a one-side fastener 70 or the like after the main body 10 is placed on the western-style toilet main body 9 from above in order to improve workability. . And when a user operates the operation part 20, the hot water in the hot water tank 11 of the main body 10 spouts from a washing nozzle (not shown), and a user's local part can be wash | cleaned.

  And since this warm water washing toilet seat 1 is installed in the floor surface 99, and is extended upwards and is provided with the support means 30 which supports the operation part 20, the main body 10 is made into a Western-style toilet bowl for the improvement of workability. Even when it is fixed to the main body 9 from above, it is possible to prevent the warm water washing toilet seat 1 from being displaced when an excessive load is applied to the operation unit 20.

  Furthermore, since the storage space 32 is formed in the support means 30, the warm water washing toilet seat 1 has a power cord 81 for supplying power to the main body 10 and the operation unit 20, a western style toilet body 9 and a hot water tank from a water supply source. The water supply pipe 82 for supplying water to the storage space 32 can be stored in the storage space 32. For this reason, this warm water washing toilet seat 1 can arrange | position the power cord 81, the water supply pipe | tube 82, etc. orderly, and does not impair the beauty | look in a toilet space.

Therefore, while the warm water washing toilet seat 1 of a reference example can support the operation part which protrudes to the side of a western style toilet bowl body reliably, it does not impair the aesthetics in a toilet space .

<Example>
As shown in FIG. 4, the warm water cleaning toilet seat 2 of the embodiment is different from the hot water cleaning toilet seat 1 of the reference example in that the support means 40 also serves as a water supply pipe. The other configuration is the same as that of the warm water washing toilet seat 1 of the reference example , and thus the description is omitted.

  The support means 40 is a water pipe made of a metal pipe that is installed on the floor surface 99 and extends upward, and is fixed to the operation unit 20 with its upper end in contact with the lower surface of the operation unit 20. The branch pipe 41 is formed. The support means 40 as a water supply pipe is for supplying water from a water supply source to the hot water tank 11 of the main body 10 and also supplies water to the low tank 91 provided in the western-style toilet main body 9 via the branch pipe 41. Is to do.

Warm water washing toilet seat 2 having such a structure in an exemplary, like the bidet 1 of Reference Example, is applied to the Western style flushing toilet 8, it is possible to achieve the same effect.

  And since this warm water washing toilet seat 2 is also installed in the floor surface 99, is extended upwards and is provided with the support means 40 which supports the operation part 20, the main body 10 is made into a Western-style toilet bowl for the improvement of workability. Even when it is fixed to the main body 9 from above, it is possible to prevent the warm water washing toilet seat 1 from being displaced when an excessive load is applied to the operation unit 20.

  Further, since the warm water cleaning toilet seat 2 also serves as a water supply pipe for supplying water from the water supply source to the hot water tank 11, the support means 40 and the water supply pipe can be arranged in an orderly manner. . For this reason, this warm water washing toilet seat 2 does not impair the beauty in the toilet space.

Therefore, the warm water washing toilet seat 2 of the embodiment can also reliably support the operation portion protruding to the side of the Western-style toilet body, and does not impair the beauty in the toilet space.

  Further, in this warm water washing toilet seat 2, the support means 40 that also serves as a water supply pipe is formed with a branch pipe 41 for supplying water to a low tank 91 provided in the western style toilet body 9, so that water is supplied to the western style toilet body 9. It becomes possible to arrange | position a water supply pipe | tube by a short path | route, and does not impair the beauty | look in a toilet space.

Although the invention has been described with reference to examples, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, it can naturally be modified as appropriate without departing from its spirit.

For example, in the embodiment, although the hot water tank 11 is set in the main body 10 side, it may be installed hot water tank 11 in the operation portion 20. Moreover, you may employ | adopt an instant water heater as a warm water supply source.

  The present invention can be used for a warm water washing toilet seat.
