[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a bathtub remote control device which is remotely controlled by a wireless system or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Bubbles are spouted into a bathtub water,
In so-called bubble baths, a bubble outlet is provided in the bathtub so that various types of bubbles can be selected and applied to various parts of the body such as the back and feet of the bather. A device has been developed that allows a bather to control the strength, shape, and amount of bubbles by a remote control method.

[0003] The remote control device configured to be floatable on the water surface of the bathtub water is very convenient because the bather can adjust the bubbles as necessary and float the water surface on the water surface. .

[0004]

However, in the conventional remote control device, since the adjustment operation is performed while floating on the water surface of the bathtub, the water surface of the bathtub is foamed even when the adjustment operation is unnecessary. Since it floats around the bather, it has the drawback of hindering the bathing.

Therefore, in the present invention, when the adjustment operation is not necessary, it is held at an appropriate place outside the bathtub so as not to be an obstacle during bathing, and the adjustment operation can be performed even from the holding position. There is.

[0006]

In order to achieve such an object, the present invention provides a remote control device for a bathtub on a wall or the like.
A structure for detachably holding the holding device to be fixed.
In the structure, the bathtub remote control device and the holding device
Configure as follows. The bathtub remote controller is
The switch operation part is on the surface and the battery storage part is on the bottom.
Each of them is provided with a lid body on the bottom surface.
It is detachably attached in the state of bulging from this
One that is substantially perpendicular to the bulging direction on the peripheral edge of the lid on the bulging end side
A guide hook protruding toward the side is formed. The holding device
The device is provided with a holding lever on one side of which the guide hook is engaged.
Is provided.

[0007]

[Operation] With the above configuration, the holding member is fixed to the wall surface of the bathroom.
Do not put the remote control device for bathtub in the device
Also, attach the remote control device for the bathtub to the holding rail on one side of the holding device.
Holding device by hooking the guide hook on the bottom of the table
It is designed to hold the bathtub remote controller
Since the upper surface of the bathtub remote control device is
The entire top surface of the bathtub remote control device is not covered
The body is exposed to the outside. For that reason,
With the mokon device held by the holding device,
What is the switch operation part installed on the top of the remote control
You can operate it without any trouble. In addition,
Swell the lid of the control device from the bottom surface of the bathtub remote control device.
The bulging end of the lid body at the bulging end side.
Provided with a guide hook that projects in a direction almost orthogonal to the projecting direction
Therefore, the operator can easily grasp the guide hook. So
For the battery compartment of the bathtub remote control device.
When attaching, attach the lid to the battery compartment.
In addition to making it easier to install, the guide
You can hold the entire bathtub remote control by grasping the tab
become.
