[0004] The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and an object of the present invention is to eliminate wasteful flow lines in the space, to make efficient and effective use of the space, and to make it possible to use the space efficiently and effectively when bathing, etc. To provide an equipment unit which can be used comfortably by reducing the awareness that there is a toilet bowl when washing, and furthermore allows flexibility in the position of providing an opening for going in and out.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above object, the equipment unit A of the present invention is provided with an opening 2 for entry and exit in a wall surface 1 near one corner of a rectangular space when viewed from above,
The area where the opening 2 is located is defined as an opening space 3, and a bathing device such as a bathtub 4 or a shower space is provided in an area diagonal to this opening space 3, and one of the remaining two corner areas is provided. A washstand 5 is installed on one side, and a toilet bowl 6 is installed on the other side, and the area where the bathing device is installed, the area where the washstand 5 is installed, and the area where the toilet bowl 6 is installed are communicated with the opening space 3, respectively. It is characterized by

[0006]

[Operation] When entering from opening 2, it always enters opening space 3,
From here, you can directly enter the desired area, such as the area where the bathing equipment is located, the area where the washstand 5 is located, the area where the toilet bowl 6 is located, etc., and you can move to the desired location without making unnecessary movements, resulting in efficient use. Can be done. Also, when the toilet bowl 6 is not in use, the toilet bowl 6
The toilet bowl 6 can be used comfortably without having to pass through a certain part of the toilet without having to be conscious of the existence of the toilet bowl 6. Also, since the structure is such that it once enters the opening space 3, the two adjacent wall surfaces 1 at this corner
The opening 2 can be provided in any of them, increasing the degree of freedom in providing the opening 2.

[0007]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS As shown in FIG. 1, the equipment unit A is formed into a rectangular shape, and is surrounded by a wall 1. An opening 2 for entry and exit is provided in a wall surface 1 at one corner of the four corners of the space within the equipment unit A, and a door 7 that can be opened and closed is provided in this opening 2. In the case of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, an opening 2 is provided in the wall surface 1 parallel to the longitudinal direction of the equipment unit A, and in the case of the embodiment shown in FIG. Section 2 is provided. An opening space 3 is provided in the area of the space of the equipment unit A where the opening 2 is located. A bathtub 4 is installed as a bathing device in an area diagonal to the opening space 3 in this space. This bathtub 4 is installed so that the longitudinal direction of the bathtub 4 is parallel to the longitudinal direction of the equipment unit A. Instead of this bathtub 4, a shower space having a shower may be provided as a bathing device. A washstand 5 is placed in an area of one of the remaining two corners in the space, and a toilet bowl 6 is placed in an area of the other corner. The washstand 5 is installed at a slant in a corner. A transparent partition 9 is installed between the bathtub 4 and the area where the toilet bowl 6 is located.

[0008] When entering through the opening 2, the user enters the opening space 3 and can enter the desired location from the opening space 3. In other words, when washing the toilet, go directly from the opening space 3 to the area where the sink 5 is located, and when taking a bath, go directly to the area where the wash basin 5 is located, and when taking a bath, go directly to the area where the wash basin 5 is located.
The person goes directly to the bathtub 4 from there, and when he/she wants to relieve himself/herself, the user goes directly from the opening space 3 to the area where the toilet bowl 6 is located. Therefore, for any use, it can be moved to the desired location without any extra movement. In addition, the toilet bowl 6 can be used comfortably without having to pass through the area where the toilet bowl is located except when urinating, without being visually conscious of the presence of the toilet bowl 6.

Furthermore, if the height of the part where the toilet bowl 6 is installed is higher than the height of the part used as a washing area when taking a bath, water will not flow into the area where the toilet bowl 6 is located, and the toilet bowl 6
There is no risk of your feet getting wet during use.
