Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an apparatus for cleaning a local part of a human body, and more particularly to an electrical connection structure for a hot air heating apparatus and other additional units.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art For example, Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. 5-51956 discloses a technique in which a warm air heating unit for heating a toilet space is optionally added to a human body cleaning device. In this technique, a washing mechanism for washing a human body part is accommodated in a casing serving as a main body, and an outlet connected in parallel to a power source of the mechanism is installed on an upper side of a casing side. When the optional hot air heating unit is connected to the side of the casing with a suction cup, the supply of electricity to the heating / blowing mechanism inside the hot air heating unit is connected to the end of the cord extending from the hot air heating unit. It is made by connecting the plug to the outlet.

[0003]

However, when an optional hot air heating unit is added, the cord is bridged between the casing and the hot air heating unit, and both the casing and the hot air heating unit are connected. When wiping surfaces, this code can get in the way. Also, such exposed code is by no means good looking.

[0004] Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to provide a human body local cleaning apparatus which eliminates such a problem.

[0005]

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above technical problem, the technical means taken in the invention according to claim 1 is to clean a casing and a human body part to be installed at a rear upper edge of a toilet. A hot water washing mechanism accommodated in the casing, a space formed at the bottom of the casing and opening to face the upper rear edge of the toilet bowl, and a power supply fixed to the space and provided from the power supply of the hot water washing mechanism. A housing provided with a main body portion having an extended first connector, a mounting surface abutting on one side surface of the casing and connected to the casing, an additional mechanism housed in the housing, and a space from the additional mechanism; The cord extends to the inside of the casing and is always in non-contact with the rear upper edge of the toilet bowl. The second, which is always apart from the by and connected to said first connector and said toilet bowl rear upper edge
That is, a human body local cleaning apparatus having an additional unit having a connector is configured.

[0006]

In the above technical means, the cord extending from the additional unit to the inside of the casing is located only in the space formed at the bottom of the casing.
After the casing has been installed at the upper rear edge of the toilet bowl, the cord is not exposed to the outside and does not interfere with cleaning or cause unsightly appearance.

[0007]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Referring to FIGS. 1 to 4, the body part cleaning apparatus 10 includes a casing 12 mounted on a rear upper edge 11 a of a toilet 11. On one side of the casing 12 in the longitudinal direction (the left-right direction in FIG. 1), a projecting portion 13 is formed which projects forward and downward by a predetermined length. As is well known, a toilet seat 15 and a toilet lid 16 are rotatably mounted in front of the casing 12 by hinge pins (not shown). Inside the casing 12,
A tank (not shown) for storing hot water as washing water, a control unit 20 as a microcomputer, a local washing device 30, a local drying device 40, and a deodorizing device 50 are accommodated. Thus, the control unit 20 is activated when the operation switch 21 provided on the protrusion 13 is turned on, and the local cleaning device 30, the local drying device 40, and the deodorizing device 50 , Under the control of the control unit 20 and not shown, by operating each function switch installed on the protruding portion 13 as is well known, the local cleaning device 30, the local drying device 40 and the deodorizing device. 50 is activated.

Inside the casing 12, a power source 6 is provided.
0, control unit 20, local cleaning device 30, local drying device 40
Leakage protection device 7 interposed between the device and the deodorizing device 50
0 is stored.

On the other side of the bottom portion 14 of the casing 12, that is, on the side opposite to the protruding portion 13, the rear upper edge 1
An opening 15 is formed so as to be opposed to 1a. The opening 15 is located on the rear side of the casing 12 and has a substantially L-shaped and shallow first portion 15a so as to open to both the first portion 15a and the other end face of the bottom portion 14 and the first portion 15a. It is composed of two parts 15b. In order to form such a space 15, a first portion 14 a (a second portion 14 b) forming a bottom plate of a first portion 15 a (a second portion 15 b) of the space 15 is provided on the bottom 14 of the casing 12. A step is formed. The first portion 14a of the bottom portion 14 serving as the bottom plate of the first portion 15a of the space 15 is provided with a power line 8 extending from the leakage protection device 70 so as to use the same power as the local cleaning device 30.
The first connector 85 connected to the leading end of the “0” is fixed. The axis of the first connector 85 is the first part 1 of the bottom part 14.
4a is formed substantially at a right angle.

The other side of the casing 12, that is, the projection 1
The housing 91 is detachably attached via a bracket 88 to the other side of the casing 12 on the surface on the opposite side to the mounting surface 91a of the housing 91 of the warm air heating unit 90 as an additional unit. Are linked. A housing 91 of the warm air heating unit 90 houses a warm air device 92 and a control unit 93 serving as a microcomputer for controlling the warm air device 92.
The operation is started / stopped by operating the operation switch 94. The cord 95 electrically connected to the hot air device 92 through the control unit 93 extends from the mounting surface 91a of the housing 91 at a substantially right angle to the mounting surface 91a, and is formed on the bottom portion 14 of the casing 12. After passing through the second part 15b of the space part 15, the space part 1
5 reaches the first part 15a. The second connector 96 is connected to the distal end of the cord 95, and the second connector 96 is connected to the second connector 96.
The connector 96 is located in the first portion 15a of the space 15 at a position separated from the toilet rear upper edge 11a.
Connected to first connector 85.

The cord 95 located in the second portion 15b of the space portion 15 is formed on the bottom portion 14 of the casing 12 and covers almost half the width of the opening of the second portion 15b of the space portion 15. The pair of pawls 14p of the embodiment is used to prevent slipping, and is always in non-contact with the toilet upper rear edge 11a. Thus, at the time of actual assembling, the entire cord 95 gets over the claw 14p and is inserted into the second portion 15b of the space portion 15.

The additional unit is not limited to the hot air heating unit, but may be an air purifier or a deodorizing device.
