BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a toilet provided with a local cleaning device for ejecting cleaning water from a nozzle tip toward a human body local area after using the toilet, and more particularly to a toilet having an automatic flush valve for cleaning the toilet.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Toilet bowls having a local cleaning device for ejecting cleaning water from the tip of a nozzle toward a human body local area after use have been widely used. One type of toilet bowl with a local cleaning device is one in which a rear flush water tank and a local cleaning device are integrated.In the case of this type of toilet bowl with a local cleaning device, the operation unit or remote controller of the main body of the local cleaning device is used. It is known that the tank lever can be automatically rotated by a motor by operating the operation part, and the cleaning water in the cleaning water tank can be jetted vigorously to the toilet side to automatically clean the toilet bowl. There is.

On the other hand, as such a local cleaning apparatus, there is known a type which is formed separately from the toilet body and is used by being attached to the toilet body together with the toilet seat. When this so-called seat type local cleaning device is attached to the toilet body, the toilet bowl does not have a flush water tank, that is, the flush valve 104 is provided on the water supply pipe 102 to the toilet 100 as shown in FIG. In the case where the toilet bowl 100 is directly connected to the toilet bowl 100, it is necessary to turn around and push the lever 106 when the toilet bowl is washed after using the toilet bowl 100, which is a troublesome toilet bowl washing operation.

On the other hand, when an automatic flush valve that automatically opens and closes the water supply channel by operating the solenoid valve is used as the flush valve, an operating section 108 for controlling the operation of the solenoid valve is used as shown in FIG. Flash bulb 1
It is possible to dispose on the wall 109 or the like at a position distant from 10, and in this case it is possible to dispose the operation unit 108 at a position where it is easy to operate, and it is not necessary to turn around the back when cleaning the toilet. It has the advantage of being good.

However, in this case, in addition to the problem that a dedicated power source for the automatic flash valve 110 must be secured, the automatic flash valve 110 and the operating portion 10 are also required.
Since the electric wiring work for connecting with 8 has to be performed on the back side of the wall 109, there is a problem that the construction work of the automatic flush valve becomes difficult.

[0006]

The invention of the present application has been made to solve such a problem. Therefore, the invention of the present application is a toilet bowl equipped with a local cleaning device for ejecting cleaning water from a nozzle tip toward a human body local area, and an automatic flush valve for opening and closing a water supply channel by the operation of a solenoid valve is provided with a water supply pipe In addition to being directly connected to the above, electric wiring for power supply and operation control to the automatic flush valve is extended from the main body of the local cleaning device to be connected to the automatic flush valve, and an operating portion of the automatic flush valve is connected. It is characterized in that it is provided in the operation section of the local cleaning device.

[0007]

INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY As described above, according to the present invention, in a toilet equipped with a local cleaning device, the local cleaning device is connected to a predetermined power source. Since it is equipped with a control unit for controlling the ejection of water, the operation of the hot water heater, and other operation of the mechanical unit, the local cleaning device and the automatic flush valve are electrically connected, and the local cleaning device causes the automatic flush valve to operate. In addition to supplying power to the automatic flush valve in the local cleaning device, according to the present invention, a dedicated power source can be secured during installation and installation of the automatic flush valve, There is no need to perform electrical wiring work on the back side of the wall to electrically connect the flash valve and its operating part. It is to simplify.

Further, according to the present invention, the automatic flush valve can be operated by operating the operating part of the local cleaning device, and the operating part of the local cleaning device is still forward in a state where the toilet bowl is seated. Since it is provided at a position where it can be operated in the state of facing, it is not necessary to turn around the back when cleaning the toilet bowl as in the conventional case, and the operation can be performed easily.
