Description

The present invention relates to a western style toilet that reduces urine rebound when urinating a man while standing.

Western-style toilets can be used for defecation in the same state as when sitting on a chair, so they are now mainstream as toilets in general households. When there is enough installation space, in the men's toilet, a urinal for urine is often installed and then a Western-style toilet is installed for stool. However, if there is not enough installation space, such as a home, a Western-style toilet is used. In many cases, one unit covers all for men, women, urine and stool.
In such cases, when a man urinates, he often sits in front of the Western-style toilet and stands in front of it, but by doing such urination while standing in front of the toilet, There was a problem of unsanitary urine that urinates out of the toilet bowl and scatters to the floor and walls of the toilet, causing contamination. For this reason, there has been a problem that the labor of cleaning the toilet increases at home.

For this reason, various proposals have been made to prevent urine from bouncing off during urination in Western-style toilets.
In particular, Patent Document 2 discloses a water-washing type that forms a water reservoir having a water supply / drainage function, in which a smooth hyperboloid is formed in a substantially conical shape at a substantially central portion, and the water level is always kept constant at the bottom. In Western-style toilets, Western-style toilets have been proposed in which sharpened protrusions are provided on the surface of the hyperboloid concave conical water reservoir to prevent water from splashing.
Further, the present inventor previously proposed a urinal in Patent Document 3 in which a protruding portion extending in the vertical direction is provided at a substantially central portion in the width direction of the urinal in order to prevent urine bounce in a male urinal. It is carried out.

However, the proposal in Patent Document 1 is insufficient in terms of the bounce prevention effect, and in the proposal according to Patent Document 2, there is a possibility that the protrusion may hit the user's skin at the time of use, and there is a problem on the feeling of use, In terms of the effect of preventing rebound, the urine hitting the protrusion may bounce off the toilet bowl beyond the toilet bowl, and the desired effect is not obtained.
Moreover, the proposal concerning patent document 3 is related with a urinal, and did not eliminate the problem in a Western-style toilet.
In short, the Western-style toilet bowl that has been proposed in the past cannot sufficiently prevent bounce of urine when a man urinates, and can effectively prevent bounce even if a man urinates while standing. Currently, there is a demand for the development of Western-style toilets that can be used.

  Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a Western-style toilet that can effectively prevent rebound even if a man is standing and urinates, and that does not impair the feeling of use when sitting. is there.

As a result of diligent investigations to solve the above problems, the present inventor has found that if a recess is provided near the water storage part of a Western-style toilet, urine bounce can be prevented to some extent, and the present invention has been completed as a result of further research. It came to do.
That is, the present invention is a toilet seat,
A toilet body on which the toilet seat is placed and an opening is provided above;
The toilet body has a diameter smaller than that of the opening, and is located on a base end side which is located on the back side of the user when the user is seated on the toilet seat. In a Western-style toilet equipped with a water storage part that is formed so that the waste can be disposed of together with the water stream while temporarily storing
The toilet body is provided with a urine receiving portion, which is adjacent to the water storage portion and includes a concave portion and at least one convex portion that is formed at the bottom of the concave portion and divides the concave portion into a plurality of small concave portions. The present invention provides a Western style toilet.
Further, in the present invention, the urine receiving part is formed so as to have a gradient from the distal end side to the proximal end side of the opening, with the distal end side being an upper side and the proximal end side being a lower side. 2. A Western-style toilet bowl according to 1, wherein

The Western-style toilet of the present invention can effectively prevent a bounce even if a man stands and urinates, and the feeling of use in a sitting state is not impaired. In addition, the user can minimize the rebound without worrying about the bounce that has been considered in the past, only by urinating the urine receiving portion in the western-style toilet of the present invention. Even if you adjust the momentum and direction, you will be freed from the hassle of reducing the bounce of urine and you can use it without stress.
The urine receiving part reduces the occurrence of rebounding, and less urine is scattered not only in the toilet bowl but also on the floor and walls of the toilet, so it is more hygienic than before and reduces the labor of cleaning. be able to.

It is a partially broken perspective view which shows one Embodiment of the western style toilet bowl of this invention. It is a top view of the toilet bowl of FIG. It is the sectional view on the AA line of the western style toilet bowl shown in FIG. It is an enlarged view of the urine receiving part of the western-style toilet of FIG. It is the schematic explaining the function of the urine receiving part at the time of use of the western style toilet bowl of FIG.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings.
1 to 3 includes a toilet seat 10 and a toilet body 20 on which the toilet seat 10 is placed and an opening 21 is provided above. The toilet body 20 has a diameter smaller than that of the opening 21 and is located on the base end 22 side located on the back side of the user when the user in the opening 21 is seated on the toilet seat, and can store water. A water storage unit 25 is provided which is configured to temporarily store filth and discard the filth along with the water flow. Further, a toilet flush surface 24 is provided between the opening 21 and the water reservoir 25 with a gradient so that water can flow. These structures are the same as those of a conventionally known western style toilet.

In this embodiment, the toilet seat 10 is O-shaped, and although not shown, it is connected to the toilet body via a hinge on the side of the base end portion 22 so that it can be opened and closed upward.
Further, a tank 2 for storing water is provided above the base end portion 22 of the toilet body 20 so that the water can flow into the toilet body when in use.
Moreover, the opening 21 of the toilet body 20 is O-shaped as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, and the surface is inclined from the opening 21 to the water reservoir 25.
The water storage part 25 is provided on the base end part 22 side of the toilet body, and as shown in FIG. 2, a drain pipe structure 30 similar to the drain pipe structure of a normal toilet bowl is formed. Can be disposed of without waste.
The material for forming the toilet seat and the toilet bowl body is not particularly limited, and can be formed by using a material normally used for this type of toilet bowl without particular limitation.
In addition, piping is not illustrated in description of this embodiment, and the western style toilet bowl of this embodiment is a floor-standing type installed on the floor.

  And in the western style toilet 1 of this embodiment, the toilet water flow surface 24 of the toilet main body 20 is formed in the recessed part 27 and the bottom part 27a of the recessed part 27 adjacent to the water storage part 25, and the recessed part 27 is made into several small recessed parts 27b. A urine receiving portion 26 including a single convex portion 28 is provided. Here, the urine receiving part 26 is formed from the water storage part 25 to the front end part 23 side in the toilet flushing water surface 24.

The urine receiving portion 26 is formed so as to have a gradient from the distal end portion 23 side to the proximal end portion 22 side of the opening 21 with the distal end portion 23 side upward and the proximal end portion 22 side downward. Moreover, the recessed part 27 consists of the square-shaped surface 27c by the side of the front-end | tip part 23, and two rectangular-shaped side surfaces 27d extended from one side of this surface, and the water storage part 25 side is open | released. In the present embodiment, the surface 27c is substantially vertical, but the side surface 27d has a gradient shape.
Further, the convex portion 28 has a triangular cross section, and is formed so that the height thereof is lower than the depth of the concave portion 27, and is at the same or slightly gentle angle as the gradient of the bottom surface of the urine receiving portion 26. It is formed to have an inclination.
The length of the urine receiving part is preferably 7 to 18 cm.
The width of the recess 27 constituting the urine receiving part 26 is preferably 20 to 50 (7 to 16 cm in actual dimensions) with respect to the width 100 of the opening of the toilet body 20.
The depth is preferably 0.5-4 cm at the shallowest part and 6-18 cm at the deepest part.
The gradient is preferably in the range of 35 to 60 °. In other words, it is preferable to select the length and the depth so as to be in such a gradient range in order to exhibit the desired effect of the present invention.
Moreover, it is preferable that the width | variety (length of the base part part when it is set as cross-sectional shape) shall be 6-15 cm. The height is preferably 5 to 17 cm at the highest portion, and is preferably not more than the depth of the recess as described above in order to express the desired effect of the present invention.

  As the urine receiving part 26 is located on the distal end part 23 side of the water storage part 25 as described above, it is easy to determine the target even if the change in the momentum of the urine is significant during the urination of the male. It becomes possible to prevent urine splash more effectively.

  Further, in order to perform washing with washing water in the same manner as washing of a conventional Western-style toilet bowl, the urine receiving part 26 has a height closest to the water storage part in the toilet flush surface 24 and is formed at a low position. As a result, cleaning with cleaning water is possible.

  Further, since the convex portion 28 having the above-described shape is provided, a small concave portion 27b is formed by the side portion 27d and the inclined surface 28a of the convex portion, and the inclined surface opposed to the urine that hits the side surface 27d or the inclined surface 28a. Unlike conventional Western-style toilets, which bounce toward 28a or side surface 27d and bounce directly toward the upper side of the toilet bowl, the impact is reduced by a gentle slope and the direction of the urine is changed and guided to the reservoir section side. It is possible to reduce the bounce of urine to the extent that it does not bounce to the outside.

  Further, by having the above gradient, the urine rebound angle can be made more obtuse, and the urine that does not hit the convex portion 28 or the side surface 27d does not rebound upward of the toilet bowl, and the water storage unit 25 Can be guided to the side. As described above, the slope 28a and the side surface 27d of the convex portion are provided at positions close to each other and are inclined together, thereby functioning as a buffer surface when urine is hit.

The flow path of the urine falling to the urine receiving part 26 will be described with reference to FIG.
The urine hits the convex portion 28, the side surface 27d, or the bottom portion 27a. When it hits the convex portion 28 or the side surface 27d, it is guided to the water storage portion 25 as shown by the arrow while hitting the opposing side surface 27d or convex portion 28. Moreover, when it hits the bottom part 27a, it jumps to the water storage part side and is guided to the water storage part 25.

  The urine receiving portion 26 can be configured by changing only a part of the design of a conventional toilet, and there is no need to change the configuration of the toilet seat or toilet flush surface. In addition, since the Western-style toilet of the present invention changes the form of the toilet body itself, there is no need to arrange special parts in the toilet bowl, and causes of clogging of the water distribution pipe due to falling or dropping of parts, etc. It will never be.

  In addition, this urine receiving portion 26 can minimize the occurrence of bounce of urine not only when the man is standing, but also when sitting and adding to both men and women. It also has the effect of preventing urine from adhering to the user's lower body or the back of the toilet seat.

In addition, the western style toilet of this invention is not restrict | limited to the above-mentioned form, A various deformation | transformation is possible in the range which does not deviate from the meaning of this invention.
For example, the shape of the toilet seat 10 is not particularly limited, and may be various shapes such as a U shape.
In the present embodiment, an example in which there is one convex portion 28 and two small concave portions has been described, but there may be two or more convex portions and three or more small concave portions.

  The western-style toilet of the present invention is useful as a new toilet in that, in addition to the conventional water-saving, in the renewal of the toilet, a new effect of reducing the rebound and making it a sanitary toilet can be expressed.
