Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to an improvement in a mounting structure of a bathroom reception sensor that is paired with a remote controller that operates equipment provided in a bathroom in the bathroom. The equipment installed in the bathroom includes a bubble device in the bathtub, a water heater, a TV in the bathroom, or a sound device in the bathroom.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 Conventionally, as a mounting structure for a bathroom reception sensor, there is one disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Hei 2-309957. In this structure, as shown in FIG. 6, the storage case 2 is attached to the edge portion 1a of the bath body 1, and the reception sensor 3 is stored in the storage case 2. The storage case 2 has a sensor storage portion upper surface 2a protruding from the bathtub edge portion 1a and having a downward slope toward the inside of the bathtub so that signals such as infrared rays from the waterproof remote controller 4 can be reliably received. The signal transmitted from the remote controller 4 is received by the reception sensor 3, transmitted through the wiring 5 and guided to the controller 6, and performs operations such as starting and stopping the bubble device 7, which is a device.

As a different mounting structure, although not shown, there is a mounting structure in which a wiring hole is formed in the wall surface of the bathroom and a storage case dedicated to the reception sensor is mounted on this wall surface.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, the former mounting structure has a problem in that the storage case 2 projects from the bathtub edge portion 1a, and thus becomes an obstacle to bathing and bath cover. In addition, the latter mounting structure is troublesome to construct because a dedicated storage case is mounted by drilling wiring holes on the wall surface.

In order to solve these problems, it is an object of the present invention to provide a mounting structure of a reception sensor that does not interfere with a bath or a bath lid and is very easy to install.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems] Means adopted by the present invention is that a receiving sensor is attached to a bathroom accessory member attached to an inner wall composed of a side wall and a ceiling of a bathroom in place, and a receiving portion of the receiving sensor is placed inside the bathroom. The wiring of the reception sensor was pulled out to the outside of the bathroom through the bathroom accessory.

[0007]

[Action]

 The signal transmitted to the bathroom accessory is received by the reception sensor attached to the bathroom accessory, is guided through the wiring to the outside of the bathroom. Installation of the reception sensor in the bathroom is completed simply by attaching bathroom accessories to the inner wall of the bathroom. Therefore, the conventional drilling for mounting the receiving sensor on the bathtub or wall surface and the storage case for the receiving sensor are not required.
