Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a novel washstand with a toilet, in which a Western-style toilet bowl is removably stored inside the cabinet.

[Conventional technology and its problems]

In recent years, as land prices have soared, the exclusive area per unit of houses and condominiums has become smaller, and this trend has become particularly noticeable in urban areas. Therefore, in some business hotels and studio apartments, washbasins and Western-style toilets are installed individually in the bathroom in order to make rational use of space. The sense of discomfort at the time was unavoidable, and it could not necessarily be said to be suitable.

On the other hand, Western-style toilets (hereinafter simply referred to as "toilet bowls") have become widespread in toilets at companies and coffee shops as well as public restrooms. This was accompanied by a feeling of uncleanness, as if the toilet seat was contaminated with bacteria. For this reason, disposable toilet seat covers and wet wipes specifically designed for toilet seats have become commercially available, but it is cumbersome to carry them with you every time you go out, and a rational solution is to provide a cleaning function to the toilet bowl itself. It is thought that there is.

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention has been developed, for example: - A toilet bowl is mounted on the inner surface of the door of a cabinet that occupies the lower half of a cabinet-type washstand that is widely used in general households, etc. via a rotating mechanism as described below. By installing the toilet bowl, the toilet bowl, which is normally stored inside the cabinet, can be extracted to the outside at any time when the door is opened.

In addition, after installing a drain pan on the inner bottom of the cabinet,
A cleaning pipe communicating with the water supply pipe and a drying nozzle connected to the proa fan are installed facing the toilet seat surface of the toilet bowl stored in the cabinet. A measure was used in which a cleaning liquid could be injected through a cleaning pipe and subsequently heated air could be injected through a drying nozzle.

] The washstand with toilet of the present invention according to the technical means described above has the function of allowing the toilet bowl stored inside to be extracted at any time by opening and closing the cabinet door.

Furthermore, a toilet equipped with a cleaning pipe and a drying nozzle has the effect of automatically cleaning and drying the toilet seat surface in a short time by closing the cabinet door after using the toilet bowl.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, the structure of the present invention will be described in more detail according to the embodiment shown in the drawings. In FIGS. 1 and 2, 1 has a makeup mirror 1b above the bathroom sink 1a, and a makeup mirror 1b in the lower half thereof.

3 is a plywood board that moves with the opening and closing of c, and a toilet bowl fixed on the base plate 2.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, for example, the base plate 2 is equipped with a pulley 2a on the lower surface, and the pulley is connected to an arcuate rail 4 laid across the lower rail 1d in front of the cabinet. Arm rings 2d, which are inserted into the guide rods 8 mentioned above, are installed above and below the back surface of the back plate 2b that stands up integrally from the rear edge of the base plate 2. The base plate 2 is provided in a protruding manner so that the base plate 2 can slide up and down a certain amount on the guide rod under the force of the spring 5.

On the other hand, a support shaft 6 is installed in the back of the cabinet on the door pivot side, and brackets 7, 7 that can freely rotate up and down the support shaft 6 are provided.
The base end of the bracket is pivotally attached, while guide rods 8 are fixed at three locations on the left and right sides of the other end of the bracket.

Therefore, the toilet bowl 3 that moves with the opening and closing of the cabinet door 1c is guided by the pulley 2a on the lower surface of the base plate on the rail 4 (see Fig. 4) provided at the bottom of the base plate, and moves on the lower rail 1d of the cabinet. After passing, it will descend to the floor. Also 9
10 is a low tank installed inside the cabinet and connected to the toilet bowl 3 via a flexible pipe 9b, and 10 is a flexible drain pipe connected to the drain port (A) via a rotatable union 10a. .

In the figure, 1e indicates the handle of the Rlc, 2c indicates the thrust bearing installed in the arm ring, 3b indicates a connecting rod connecting the fillc to the base plate 2 or the toilet bowl 3, and 9a indicates the lever of the low tank 9.

Furthermore, FIG. 5 shows how to clean the toilet seat 3a of the toilet bowl 3 mentioned above
1f is a schematic diagram of the drying mechanism, and 1f is a drain pan laid on the inner bottom surface of the cabinet; 11 is a cleaning pipe located above the toilet bowl and equipped with a large number of small holes 11a;
Further, reference numeral 12 denotes a plurality of drying nozzles whose base ends communicate with the proafan 13, each of which faces the toilet seat.

On the other hand, 14 communicates with the cleaning pipe 11, and the electromagnetic piece 15

It is a limit switch attached to c, and is connected to each of the above-mentioned magnet switches 16 and 16'. Furthermore, 18.18" is each of the above magnet switches 16.16"
Timers 19 and 19' are connected to display lamps that are lit when the magnetic switches 16 and 16 are turned on, and 20 is a breaker.

Next, we will discuss how to use the washstand with toilet of the present invention shown in the above embodiments. Normally, when used as a washstand, the cabinet door 1c is closed and the toilet bowl 3 is stored inside the cabinet. I'll keep it.

When using the toilet, pull the handle 1e and move Rlc toward you, and the toilet bowl 3 connected to the back of the door via plywood can be accessed from inside the cabinet to the front of the vanity 1. Since the toilet seat 3a is extracted at an angle of approximately 45 degrees to the toilet seat 3a (see FIG. 2), the user can sit on the toilet seat 3a and use it.

After use, operate the lever 9a of the low tank to wash it with water and close the ILC, and the pulley 2a of the base plate 2 is guided by the rail 4 and climbs over the lower rail 1d of the cabinet.
The toilet bowl is stored inside.

Furthermore, if the toilet seat 3a is equipped with a cleaning/drying mechanism, the cabinet door 1 must be closed after the toilet 3 is used.
When c is closed, the limit switch 17 attached to the door is turned on, and in synchronization with this, the magnet switch 16 is activated, the solenoid valve 15 is opened, and the timer 18 is activated.
As a result, cleaning liquid is sprayed from the cleaning pipe 11 onto the surface of the toilet seat 38 for a certain period of time (usually about several tens of seconds).

This cleaning water liquid flows down into the drain pan 1f on the bottom of the cabinet and is then drained. When the cleaning is completed, the other magnetic switch 15' is turned on to operate the proa fan 13, and the heater is turned on. Heated air (not shown) is injected from the drying nozzle 12 toward the surface of the toilet bowl 3. This drying process is also automatically completed in several seconds to several tens of seconds by the timer 18, similarly to the above-mentioned washing process. Further, during the cleaning and drying, the respective indicator lamps 19 and 19'' are turned on to display the cleaning and drying process to the outside.・In addition to the 19° angle, an appropriate auto-lock mechanism should be built in to prevent the door from opening.

Furthermore, the set time of the timers 18 and 18" can be adjusted arbitrarily, but when using it as a public toilet, it is possible that the next person will use the toilet after the previous person has used it. It is preferable to complete washing and drying within about 1 minute.

In addition, in the present invention, when there is no lower rail 1d on the front surface of the cabinet of the washstand 1, or when the drain pan 1f is recessed under the floor surface, and there is no difference in height between the inside and outside of the cabinet, In this case, the above-mentioned rail 4 can be of a flat structure or can be omitted.

〔Effect of the invention〕

The washstand with toilet according to the present invention stores the toilet bowl in the cabinet provided in the lower half of the vanity, and can be extracted by simply opening the door when in use. It is possible to install both a toilet and a washstand in the space occupied by a conventional washstand.

Furthermore, by installing a 4-sided vanity with the above configuration in the bathroom of business hotels and one-room apartments, which are rapidly increasing in number these days, it is possible to completely eliminate the feeling of discomfort when taking a bath or washing your face on a daily basis.

Furthermore, toilets equipped with a washing/drying mechanism can automatically clean the toilet seat while the toilet is being stored, so even if this is used in a public restroom used by a large number of unspecified people, it will be easier for users to clean the toilet seat. It has the advantage that it can be used comfortably without feeling unclean or uncomfortable.
