Description

Aspects of the present invention generally relate to toilet devices.

Radio communication may be used in recent toilet devices. For example, in the toilet device described in Patent Document 1, an antenna for receiving a radio signal is provided in the vicinity of the upper portion of the rear end of the housing of the toilet device. As a result, the function of the toilet device can be operated by using the radio wave type remote controller that emits a radio wave signal. On the other hand, conventionally, as a remote controller for communicating with a toilet device, an infrared remote controller that emits an infrared signal has been the mainstream.

JP-A-2007-146569

It is desired that the user can select either a radio wave type remote controller or an infrared remote controller according to the usage situation of the toilet device and the preference of the user. Therefore, it is conceivable to mount two modules, a module for infrared communication and a module for radio wave communication, on the toilet device in advance so as to support both infrared rays and radio waves. However, when the user selects one of infrared communication and radio wave communication, the module for the other communication is not used. That is, there is a problem that unused modules are mounted on the toilet device, and the number of parts of the toilet device increases unnecessarily.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view illustrating a toilet room in which the toilet device according to the embodiment is installed.
As shown in FIG. 1, the toilet device 100 according to the embodiment is provided on a Western-style seated toilet (hereinafter, simply referred to as "toilet bowl") 150. The toilet device 100 has a main body 10 provided on the rear portion of the toilet bowl 150, a toilet seat 20, and a toilet lid 21.
The main body 10 has a casing 11. A functional unit described later is provided inside the casing 11. The toilet seat 20 and the toilet lid 21 are pivotally supported with respect to the main body 10 (casing 11), respectively.

Here, in the present specification, the upper side is referred to as "upper" when viewed from the user sitting on the toilet seat 20, and the lower side is referred to as "lower" when viewed from the user sitting on the toilet seat 20. When viewed from the user sitting on the toilet seat 20 with his back to the toilet lid 21 in the open state, the front is "front", the back is "rear", the right side is "right side", and the left side is "left side". To do.

FIG. 2 is a plan view illustrating the inside of the main body of the toilet device according to the embodiment.
As shown in FIG. 2, the casing 11 has a case plate 12, and a functional portion 30 is provided on the case plate 12.
The functional unit 30 has a local cleaning function for cleaning the local part of the user, a deodorizing function for deodorizing the air in the toilet room where the toilet device 100 is installed, an electric opening / closing function for electrically opening / closing the toilet seat 20 and the toilet lid 21, and the like. ..

It may have a deodorizing function for deodorizing. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, a warm air drying device 50 and a deodorizing device 52 are provided.

FIG. 3 is a block diagram illustrating the toilet device according to the embodiment.
In FIG. 3, the configuration of the electric system and the configuration of the water system are shown together. In FIG. 3, for convenience, some elements are omitted.
The control unit 32 is a control circuit such as a microcomputer. The control unit 32 controls the functions of the function unit 30 based on the signals from the human body detection sensor 54, the seating detection sensor 56, and the remote controller (infrared remote controller 61 or radio wave remote controller 62).

For example, as shown in FIG. 3, water is supplied to the main body 10 of the toilet device 100 from a water supply pipe 13 connected to a water supply, a water storage tank, or the like. The main body 10 has a water supply connecting portion 40 to which the water supply pipe 13 is connected, and a flow path 14 downstream thereof. The flow path 14 is a flow path that guides the water supplied from the water supply connection unit 40 to the functional unit 30 (nozzle 34a or the like).

A solenoid valve 41 and a pressure regulating valve are provided on the flow path 14 on the downstream side of the water supply connection portion 40. The solenoid valve 41 is a solenoid valve that can be opened and closed, and controls the supply of water based on a signal from the control unit 32. That is, the solenoid valve 41 switches between supplying water to the nozzle 34a and stopping water.

A hot water heater 36 is provided downstream of the solenoid valve 41. The hot water heater 36 heats the supplied water and converts it into hot water. For example, the hot water heater 36 raises the temperature of the supplied water to a predetermined temperature. The hot water heater 36 may be, for example, an instant heating type (instantaneous type) heat exchanger using a ceramic heater or the like, or a hot water storage heating type heat exchanger using a hot water storage tank. The user can set the temperature of the hot water by operating the remote controller (infrared remote controller 61 or radio remote controller 62).

A flow rate adjusting valve 35 for adjusting the flow rate is provided downstream of the hot water heater 36. The flow rate adjusting valve 35 adjusts the amount of water flowing through the nozzle 34a.
The nozzle 34a is arranged downstream of the flow rate adjusting valve 35. The nozzle 34a receives the driving force from the nozzle motor 34b and can advance into the bowl of the toilet bowl 150 or retract into the casing 11. That is, the nozzle motor 34b can move the 34a forward and backward based on the signal from the control unit 32.

A water discharge port is provided at the tip of the nozzle 34a, and the nozzle 34a discharges water supplied via the flow rate adjusting valve 35 from the water discharge port. Thereby, the local part (for example, "buttocks") of the user sitting on the toilet seat 20 can be washed.

The electric opening / closing unit 44 has a first motor 44a and a second motor 44b. The first motor 44a is engaged with a rotating shaft that pivotally supports the toilet lid 21, and can open and close the toilet lid 21 based on a signal from the control unit 32. Similarly, the second motor 44b is engaged with a rotating shaft that pivotally supports the toilet seat 20, and can open and close the toilet seat 20 based on a signal from the control unit 32.

The deodorizing unit 38 has a fan 38a and a deodorizing filter 38b (see FIG. 2). The deodorizing filter 38b is, for example, a porous ceramic containing water. The fan 38a sucks the air in the toilet room into the deodorizing unit 38 based on the signal from the control unit 32, passes it through the deodorizing filter 38b, and discharges it to the outside of the deodorizing unit 38. As a result, the air in the toilet room can be deodorized.

The human body detection sensor 54 detects a user in front of the toilet bowl 150, that is, a user in a position separated forward from the toilet seat 20. That is, the human body detection sensor 54 detects a user who has entered the toilet room and is approaching the toilet seat 20. As such a human body detection sensor 54, for example, an infrared light emitting / receiving type ranging sensor can be used. The human body detection sensor 54 outputs a signal indicating the detection of the human body to the control unit 32 in response to the detection of the human body.

The seating detection sensor 56 can detect the user seated on the toilet seat 20. The seating detection sensor 56 may detect not only the user seated on the toilet seat 20 but also the user existing above the toilet seat 20. As such a seating detection sensor 56, for example, an infrared light emitting / receiving type ranging sensor can be used. The seating detection sensor 56 may be a switch that is turned ON / OFF by the load when the user is seated. The seating detection sensor 56 outputs a signal indicating the detection of seating to the control unit 32 in response to the detection of the user's seating.

For example, an infrared remote controller 61 is installed on the side wall surface of the toilet device 100. The infrared remote controller 61 is provided with a plurality of buttons such as various cleaning buttons (such as a cleaning button for the tail), a cleaning position adjusting button, a water pressure adjusting button, a stop button, a toilet seat open / close button, and a toilet lid open / close button. When the user operates a button provided on the infrared remote controller 61, the infrared remote controller 61 transmits an infrared signal to the main body 10. This infrared signal includes information for controlling the functional unit 30 according to the remote control operation of the user.

As shown in FIG. 3, the main body 10 has an infrared module 63 that receives an infrared signal transmitted from the infrared remote controller 61. The infrared module 63 is electrically connected to the control unit 32, converts the received infrared signal into an electric signal, and transmits the received infrared signal to the control unit 32.

The infrared module 63 may be capable of not only receiving the infrared signal but also transmitting the infrared signal. That is, the infrared module 63 converts the electric signal transmitted from the control unit 32 into an infrared signal and transmits it to the infrared remote controller 61 and other devices. For example, the infrared remote controller 61 and the main body 10 can communicate with each other using infrared rays. A circuit, a microcomputer, or the like for converting a signal is appropriately provided between the light receiving unit of the infrared module 63 and the control unit 32.

In this way, the user can operate the function of the function unit 30 by using the infrared remote controller 61.

The user can also operate the function unit 30 by using the radio wave type remote controller 62. Like the infrared remote controller 61, the radio remote controller 62 is installed on the side wall surface of the toilet device 100 and has a plurality of buttons. When the user operates a button provided on the radio wave type remote controller 62, the radio wave type remote controller 62 transmits a radio wave signal to the main body 10. This radio wave signal includes information for controlling the functional unit 30 according to the remote control operation of the user.

The main body 10 has a mounting portion to which at least a substrate 64 (radio wave module) for receiving a radio wave signal can be retrofitted (specific examples of the mounting portion will be described later). For example, the main body 10 cannot receive a radio signal in the state of being shipped from a factory or the like, but can receive the radio signal by retrofitting the board 64 by the mounting portion. In addition, "retrofittable" means that the installer who installs the toilet device 100 or the like at the site such as a toilet room can install it. The fact that the board 64 can be retrofitted can be confirmed, for example, by describing the mounting method of the board 64 in the construction manual (instruction manual) referred to by the installer or the like.

The board 64 is electrically connected to the control unit 32 by being attached to the mounting unit. The substrate 64 has, for example, an antenna 64a and a circuit unit 64b. For the antenna 64a, for example, a wiring pattern provided on the substrate can be used. When the antenna 64a receives the radio wave signal transmitted from the radio wave type remote controller 62, the circuit unit 64b acquires an electric signal corresponding to the received radio wave signal. The circuit unit 64b includes, for example, a microcomputer and a signal amplification circuit, appropriately converts and amplifies the acquired electric signal, generates an electric signal, and transmits the generated signal to the control unit 32.

The substrate 64 may be capable of not only receiving the radio wave signal but also transmitting the radio wave signal. For example, the circuit unit 64b includes a high frequency generating circuit. For example, the electric signal transmitted from the control unit 32 is converted into a high frequency signal by the microcomputer and the high frequency generation circuit included in the circuit unit 64b. The antenna 64a converts this high frequency signal into a radio wave signal and transmits it to the radio wave type remote controller 62 and other devices. For example, the radio wave type remote controller 62 and the main body 10 can communicate with each other using radio waves.

The radio wave used for communication between the radio wave type remote controller 62 and the substrate 64 is, for example, a 2.4 GHz band. The communication standard used for communication between the radio remote controller 62 and the substrate 64 is, for example, ZigBee (registered trademark). However, the embodiment is not limited to the above, and the frequency of radio waves and the communication standard are arbitrary. For example, standards such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth® may be used.

As described above, by retrofitting the board 64 with the mounting portion, the user can operate the function of the functional portion 30 by using the radio wave type remote controller 62.

Conventionally, as a remote controller for communicating with a toilet device, a remote controller using infrared rays has been the mainstream. Further, in recent years, a radio wave type remote controller using radio waves has also been used. It is desirable that the user can select the remote controller according to the usage situation of homes and public facilities and the preference of the user. Therefore, it is conceivable to mount two modules, a module for infrared communication and a module for radio wave communication, in advance on the toilet device so as to support both infrared communication and radio wave communication. However, when the user selects one of infrared communication and radio wave communication, the module for the other communication is not used. That is, there is a problem that unused modules are mounted on the toilet device, and the number of parts of the toilet device increases unnecessarily.

On the other hand, the toilet device 100 according to the embodiment has a mounting portion to which a substrate 64 (radio wave module) can be retrofitted. By retrofitting the board 64 to the mounting portion, it is possible to perform communication by radio waves according to the use of the toilet device and the preference of the user. Further, since the board 64 can be retrofitted, it is not necessary to mount the board 64 when communication by radio waves is not required. Therefore, the number of parts of the toilet device can be reduced.

Further, in the toilet device 100, the structure of the toilet device 100 can be simplified because the operation by the radio wave remote controller 62 can be performed only by retrofitting one board 64 corresponding to the radio remote controller 62. Further, since the infrared module 63 is mounted as a standard specification, for example, it is possible to operate the toilet device with both the radio wave type remote controller and the infrared remote controller by retrofitting the substrate 64.

The board to be retrofitted is not limited to a board for communicating with the radio wave type remote controller 62, and may be a board capable of communicating with other devices using radio waves. For example, a substrate for radio wave communication with a mobile terminal or a computer may be attached. It is also possible to update the program written in the control unit 32 by radio wave communication via the board attached to the attachment unit.

Hereinafter, a specific example of the mounting portion will be described.
FIG. 4 is a perspective view illustrating the toilet device according to the embodiment.
As shown in FIG. 4, the toilet device 100 has a cover 73 and a mounting portion 70. FIG. 4 shows a state in which the main body portion 10 from which the cover 73 has been removed is viewed from the rear lower side.

The cover 73 and the mounting portion 70 are arranged at the lower end portion (lowermost end portion) of the main body portion 10. Specifically, the cover 73 is attached to the back surface (lower surface) of the case plate 12. The cover 73 and the mounting portion 70 are located at the rear end portion and the left end portion of the main body portion 10. When the cover 73 is removed, the mounting portion 70 arranged on the back surface of the case plate 12 is exposed.

The mounting portion 70 has a harness 74 and a main body side storage portion 74c. The main body side storage portion 74c is, for example, integrally molded with the case plate 12, and has a concave portion or a convex portion (projection portion) that defines the position of the case 72 in which the substrate 64 is stored. The harness 74 has an electrical wiring 74a and a connector 74b connected to one end of the electrical wiring 74a. For example, a plurality of electrical wirings 74a are provided and bundled into one.

By connecting the board 64 (radio wave module) housed in the case 72 to the connector 74b, the board 64 is electrically connected to the control unit 32.

5 (a) to 5 (c) are perspective views and cross-sectional views illustrating a case in which the substrate according to the embodiment is housed. FIG. 5A is a perspective view of the case 72. FIG. 5B is an exploded view of the case 72 containing the substrate 64. FIG. 5C is a cross section taken along line A1-A2 shown in FIG. 5A.

The case 72 has an upper case 72a and a lower case 72b. As shown in FIG. 5B, a protrusion 72e is provided on the side surface of the upper case 72a. A hook 72f is provided on the side surface of the lower case 72b. With the substrate 64 arranged between the upper case 72a and the lower case 72b, the protrusion 72e and the hook 72f mesh with each other. As a result, the substrate 64 is housed in the case 72.

As shown in FIG. 5C, the substrate 64 has an upper surface 64U that faces upward when the substrate 64 is attached to the attachment portion 70. The antenna 64a and the circuit unit 64b described with respect to FIG. 3 are provided on the upper surface 64U. In other words, the antenna 64a faces upward when attached to the attachment portion 70. The upper surface 64U is provided with an insertion portion 64c (female terminal) into which the connector 74b (male terminal) of the harness 74 is inserted. The board 64 and the harness 74 are connected by inserting the connector 74b into the insertion portion 64c from the side of the case 72.

FIG. 6 is a plan view illustrating the cover of the toilet device according to the embodiment.
FIG. 6 shows a state in which the cover 73 shown in FIG. 4 is viewed from above. The cover 73 has a cover-side storage portion 73c (recess). Further, a groove is formed around the cover side storage portion 73c, and the packing 71 is arranged in this groove for waterproofing.

7 (a) and 7 (b) are perspective views illustrating the method of mounting the substrate according to the embodiment. These figures show an enlarged view of the periphery of the mounting portion 70 as viewed from the rear lower side.
When attaching the board 64, first, the case 72 containing the board 64 and the harness 74 are connected. After that, as shown in FIG. 7A, the case 72 is arranged in the main body side storage portion 74c provided on the back surface of the case plate 12. After that, as shown in FIG. 7B, the cover 73 is covered from the lower side and fixed with the screws 73s. In this way, the case 72 is stored between the main body side storage portion 74c and the cover side storage portion 73c shown in FIG.

According to the mounting structure of the substrate 64 as described above, the builder can easily approach the mounting portion 70 simply by removing the cover 73.
Further, the mounting portion 70 is arranged on the back side of the case plate 12 and inside the cover 73. That is, the mounting portion 70 is provided inside the main body portion 10. As a result, the mounting portion can be provided without affecting the design of the toilet device 100, and the toilet device 100 having a neat design can be provided.

8 (a) and 8 (b) are plan views illustrating a toilet room in which the toilet device according to the embodiment is installed.
FIG. 8A shows a view of the toilet room from above. FIG. 8B shows a state in which the toilet device 100 is viewed from the left side.

9 (a) to 9 (c) are plan views illustrating the toilet device according to the embodiment.
FIG. 9A shows a state in which the toilet device 100 is viewed from above. FIG. 9B shows a state in which the toilet device 100 is viewed from the rear. FIG. 9C shows a state in which the toilet device 100 is viewed from the left side.
These figures schematically show the state of the radio wave signal received or transmitted by the substrate 64 retrofitted to the toilet device 100. The toilet bowl 150, the toilet seat 20, the toilet lid 21, and the like are not shown.

As shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B, the radio wave type remote controller 62 is installed on the wall surface 81 on the right side. The radio wave type remote controller 62 may be installed on the wall surface 82 on the left side as shown by the radio wave type remote controller 62 shown by the broken line in FIG. 8A. The position of the radio wave type remote controller 62 is above the toilet device 100 and in front of the toilet device 100.

For example, the antenna 64a provided on the substrate 64 can receive radio signals toward the antenna 64a from substantially all directions. Further, the antenna 64a can transmit a radio wave signal in substantially all directions centered on the antenna 64a. However, in this example, the antenna 64a has directivity. As described above with respect to FIG. 5C, since the antenna 64a faces upward, the intensity of the radio wave signal transmitted from the antenna 64a is relatively high above the antenna 64a. Further, the reception sensitivity of the antenna 64a is relatively high with respect to the radio wave signal from above toward the antenna 64a.

For example, the intensity of the radio wave signal transmitted from the antenna 64a is high in the conical range R1 shown in FIGS. 8 (a) to 9 (c). The range R1 is a cone whose apex is the position of the substrate 64 and whose rotation axis is a straight line extending in a substantially vertical direction. The angle θ1 (see FIG. 8B) between the generatrix of the cone and the horizontal direction is about 50 °. For example, the reception sensitivity of the antenna 64a is high with respect to the radio signal passing through the range R1 toward the antenna 64a.

For example, the radio wave type remote controller 62 also has directivity like the antenna 64a. The intensity of the radio wave signal transmitted from the radio wave type remote controller 62 is high in the conical range R2 as shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B. The range R2 extends toward the left side with the position of the radio wave type remote controller 62 as the apex. Further, the reception sensitivity of the radio wave type remote controller 62 is high with respect to the radio wave signal directed to the radio wave type remote controller 62 through the range R2.

When the radio wave type remote controller 62 is provided above the toilet device 100, as shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B, by arranging the antenna 64a upward, the radio wave signal can be more reliably signaled. Can be sent and received.

On the other hand, radio waves used for radio wave communication are shielded or reflected by, for example, water or a metal member. Therefore, for example, if the upper part (range R1) of the antenna 64a is covered with water, a metal member, or the like, it may be difficult to transmit and receive radio signals.

On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 9A to 9C, the antenna 64a is arranged at the rear and left end of the toilet device 100. Therefore, it is difficult to place an obstacle that shields or reflects radio waves within the range R1.
For example, as shown in FIG. 9A, the mounting portion 70 is located on the side opposite to the water supply connecting portion 40 when viewed from the nozzle 34a. Therefore, the configuration of the water system (water flow path, hot water heater 36, etc.) in the toilet device 100 is mainly provided on the right side of the nozzle 34a. As a result, it is possible to prevent the water in the toilet device 100 from hindering the transmission and reception of radio signals on the substrate 64. The control unit 32 is also provided on the right side of the nozzle 34a.

On the other hand, on the left side of the nozzle 34a, a wind system configuration (deodorizing unit 38 or the like) is mainly provided. Since resin is mainly used for these materials, there are few obstacles in the radio signal in the range R1. However, the range R1 is provided with an electric opening / closing unit 44 including a metal member and a deodorizing filter 38b containing water as members that can be obstacles to the radio wave signal. However, the size of the electric opening / closing unit 44 and the deodorizing filter 38b is limited as compared with the size of the range R1. Therefore, it is considered that the electric opening / closing unit 44 and the deodorizing filter 38b have little influence on the transmission / reception of the radio wave signal.

10 (a) and 10 (b) are perspective views illustrating a toilet device according to a modified example of the embodiment.
These figures show the main body of the toilet device viewed from behind. The main body 10b shown in FIG. 10 (a) and the main body 10c shown in FIG. 10 (b) are different from the above-mentioned main body 10 in the structure of the mounting portion for retrofitting the substrate 64, respectively.
The main body portion 10b shown in FIG. 10A has a mounting portion 70b for mounting the substrate 64. The mounting portion 70b has a harness 74 and a storage portion 74d. The storage portion 74d is integrally molded with the case plate 12, for example, on the upper surface of the case plate 12. The storage portion 74d has a protrusion or the like that defines the position of the case 72. As a result, the substrate 64 housed in the case 72 is installed at the rear end and the left end of the case plate 12.

The main body 10b has a cover 83 provided on the rear surface of the casing 11. The builder can approach the mounting portion 70b from behind the casing 11 by removing the cover 83.

In the example described above, the substrate 64 is mounted so that the antenna faces upward, but the embodiment is not limited to this. For example, in the mounting portion 70c of the main body portion 10c shown in FIG. 10B, the substrate 64 is mounted by the storage portion 74e so that the antenna faces sideways (right side or left side). The surface of the substrate 64 on which the antenna is provided is arranged so as to face the direction of the radio wave type remote controller 62.
