It is guided through the inside of the housing to the outside of the housing. Also,
This washbasin is equipped with a faucet with a mixer for pouring water and / or hot water into the washbasin and the washing tub. A water supply pipe and a hot water supply pipe are connected to the mixer through the inside of the housing. A hose with a shower nozzle is connected to the mixer. A pump is also disposed within the housing. A water absorption hose is connected to the input end of the pump, and the output end of the pump is connected to the drainage path described above via a drain pipe.

[0007]

The washing facility according to the present invention is integrated by the housing, and the housing can be moved to any place by moving on the floor.

In addition, the wash basin can be used for washing and hand washing, and the laundry tub can be used for simple washing of filth.

An auxiliary hose, for example, is connected to the drainage path and leads to an existing drainage pipe or drainage pit. Further, the water supply pipe and the hot water supply pipe are connected to the existing water supply equipment and hot water supply equipment, respectively, via an auxiliary hose, for example.

When using a shower, a shower nozzle connected to a hose is used.

The water suction hose connected to the pump is
It is used when draining hot water after use in a bathtub prepared separately from this washbasin.

[0012]

As described above, according to the present invention, since the washbasin can be easily moved to any place, for example,
The sick person can be moved to the side of the bed where they are sleeping, or moved to the vicinity of the bathtub, where water or hot water can be used. Therefore, the hot water supply to the bathtub can be performed by this washbasin.

In the wash basin, filth can be easily washed. As described above, according to the toilet equipment of the present invention, various functions can be achieved.

Further, since it is only necessary to provide piping for existing water supply and hot water supply equipment, and simple piping such as a hose is sufficient for these pipings, even in ordinary households, this washing equipment can be used as desired. Can be installed in the room. Regarding the drainage route, even if you connect an auxiliary hose here and lead it to the outdoor drainage pit,
It may be connected to an existing drainage pipe.

1 is a perspective view showing the external appearance of a washbasin 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing a state of pipes and the like configured inside the washbasin 1.

The washbasin 1 comprises a housing 2 movable on the floor. A plurality of casters 3 are provided on the lower surface of the housing 2 to facilitate movement on the floor surface.

A wash basin 4 and a washing tub 5 are arranged on the upper surface of the housing 2. The wash basin 4 is located on the overhang 6 of the housing 2 for the convenience of use.

Drainage from the wash tub 4 and the washing tub 5 is guided to the outside of the housing 2 through the inside of the housing 2 by the drainage path 7. The drainage path 7 preferably comprises a U-shaped trap 8. An auxiliary hose 9 is connected to the drainage path 7 outside the housing 2, and this auxiliary hose 9 is introduced into an existing drainage pit or connected to a drainage pipe.

On the top surface of the housing 2 and in the washbasin 4
A water faucet 11 including a mixer 10 is attached between the washing tank 5 and the washing tub 5. The faucet 11 is provided with a spout 12 which is rotatable and expandable. The supply of water or hot water to the spout 12 is controlled by the handle 13.

The mixer 10 is also connected to a hose 15 having a shower nozzle 14 attached to the end thereof. An opening 16 is provided in the upper surface of the housing 2, and when the shower nozzle 14 is not used, its base and the hose 15 are accommodated in the housing 2 through the opening 16. The supply of water or hot water to the shower nozzle 14 is controlled by the handle 17.

The mixer 10 includes a water supply pipe and a hot water supply pipe 19
Are connected through the inside of the housing 2. Water and hot water supplied through the water supply pipe 18 and the hot water supply pipe 19 are mixed in the mixer 10. A handle 20 for adjusting the water temperature by changing the mixing ratio is provided in the mixer 10. The housing 2 is provided in the water supply pipe 18 and the hot water supply pipe 19.
In the part led out from the outside, the joint 2 that can be swung
1 and 22 are linked. These joints 21 and 22
The auxiliary hose 23 from the existing water and hot water supply equipment
And 24 are respectively connected.

A pump 25 is also arranged in the housing 2. A water absorption hose 27 is connected to the input end 26 of the pump 25. The water absorption hose 27 is led out from the inside of the housing 2 to the outside through a grommet 28 provided in the housing 2. At the end of the water absorption hose 27, for example, a joint 29 that is easily and detachably connected to a drain of a bath (not shown) may be provided. A drain pipe 31 is connected to the output end 30 of the pump 25, and an end portion of the drain pipe 31 is connected to the drain path 7 via a Y-shaped joint 32.

Such a washbasin 1 is usually placed on the wall of a room and used as it is. However, when the sick person or the like is severe enough to be unable to leave the bed, the washbasin 1 may be moved to the side of the bed for use.

Further, when a bathtub is placed on the side of the bed so that a sick person or the like can take a bath, it is preferable to move the washbasin 1 to the side of the bathtub. A spout 12, for example, is used to fill the bath with hot water. The stretchable spout 12 has a long length,
The housing 2 is swung so as to project laterally. A bathtub is located below the tip of the spout 12 in this state, and hot water is supplied from the spout 12 toward the bathtub. After the supply of a predetermined amount of hot water is completed, the sick person or the like is put in the bathtub and the body is washed using, for example, the shower nozzle 14.
