Abstract

PURPOSE:To detect a local temperature rise, stop heating, and secure safety in the nondestructive state by providing a control circuit which detects the change of the insulation resistance value between the conducting substrate of a heater unit and a heater and operates a safety device. CONSTITUTION:A heater unit 8 stuck and fixed to a toilet seat main body 1 performs temperature control and guarantees safety with a temperature controller 4, a temperature detecting thermistor 11 and an excessive temperature preventing thermostat 12, but excessive temperature can not be detected at places where they are not located. A cord-shaped heater 19 is arranged and fixed on the aluminum sheet 9 of the heater unit 8, and the film of a cord- shaped heater 10 is made of an insulating material 15 such as PVC. The electric resistance value of the material is decreased as temperature rises, the change is detected by a voltage (insulation resistance) detecting element 19, namely sensed before melting and short-circuiting, a relay switch 20 is turned off by the signal from the controller 4, the excitation of the cord-shaped heater 10 is stopped, and the excessive temperature at any places of the heat unit 8 is prevented.
