[0007]

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The present invention is directed to a toilet installation structure devised in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, which is characterized in that it is fixed to the bottom of a recess formed at the rear end of the toilet. A notch communicating with the recess is formed in a front plate of a cabinet in which a member is inserted and a cleaning device, piping, and the like are stored.

[0008]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS In practicing the present invention, there is no particular limitation on the type of cabinet used. Melamine decorative board, DAP on the front panel of the cabinet
(Diallyl phthalate) Various decorative plywood such as decorative plate, decorative steel plate such as PVC steel plate, surface finish ALC (lightweight cellular concrete) board, surface finish plaster board, tile panel, etc. are used. It is also possible to use artificial marble or ceramic plate. As needed,
A wooden, iron or aluminum reinforcing material is provided on the back side of the front plate. In some cases, a hand-washing machine is installed on the top plate.

Further, when there is room in the toilet, as shown in FIG. 1, equipment such as toilet paper and cleaning tools are provided on the left and right sides of a storage cabinet 10 such as a cleaning device and piping located at the center. Cabinets 12 and 13 for storage can be provided side by side.

In the toilet bowl used in the present invention, instead of forming a flange at the rear end, a recess is formed at the rear end, and a fixing member such as a bolt, a screw or a nail is inserted into the bottom of the recess. This is different from the related art in that a through hole for forming the hole is formed. For example, if you have an outlet at the rear end of the toilet,
A recess is formed in the lower region.

[0011] Also in the present invention, the point that the rear end of the toilet is placed in contact with the front plate surface of the cabinet is the same as the conventional one. However, in the present invention, the rear side of the toilet is fixed to the floor surface with a fixing member having the bottom of the recess at the rear end of the toilet inserted therethrough. This work is performed after the toilet is arranged on the front surface of the cabinet. In the present invention, a cutout is formed in the front plate, and through the cutout, the inside of the cabinet is accessible to the recess at the rear end of the toilet. Therefore, the above fixing work is possible.

For fixing the front side of the toilet, a structure similar to the conventional one is employed, and bolts penetrating the front of the pedestal are used.
A structure in which the base member is screwed to the base member fixed to the floor may be employed.

Thereafter, connection of the toilet with a drainage pipe, a water supply pipe, and the like, installation of a water supply device such as a flush water tank or a flush valve, and the like are performed, and the operation of installing the toilet is completed.

[0014]

1 and 2 show an example of an installation structure of a toilet 1 according to the present invention. The toilet 1 used in the present invention does not have a conventional flange portion, and therefore, the base 2 has a simple shape with a smooth surface.

At the rear end 3 of the toilet 1, a recess 5 is formed in a lower area of the discharge port 4, and a bolt 6 is formed on a bottom 6 of the recess 5.
A through hole 6a for inserting a fixing member such as a screw or a nail is formed.

In this embodiment, cabinets 12 and 13 (see FIG. 1) for storing fixtures and the like are arranged side by side, and the front plate 14 of the central cabinet 11 is connected to the upper half part covering the front surface of the washing water tank 23. 14a and a lower half 14b with which the toilet 1 is in contact. Such a configuration is adopted to facilitate the construction work described below. The upper half 14a of the front plate may be the same as the conventional one, but the lower half 14b of the front plate is formed with a notch 15 reaching the lower end (see FIG. 4). The notch 15 communicates the internal space 17 of the cabinet 10 with the recess 5 of the toilet rear end 3. Further, the drain pipe 21 and the water supply pipe 22 are provided with the notch 15
Is connected to the toilet 1.

The outline of the procedure for installing the toilet 1 will be described as follows. First, the left and right cabinets 12,
After the fixed member 13 is set at a predetermined position along the wall surface W, the lower half portion 14b of the front plate is disposed between the two members, and both ends are attached to the left and right cabinets 12, 13.

Next, the toilet 1 is placed so that its rear end 3 is in contact with the surface of the lower half 14b of the front plate.
Bolts 9 inserted from the front end face of the pedestal 2
Is screwed into the base member 8 fixed to the floor F, and the screw member 7 is screwed into the floor F from the through hole 6a formed in the bottom 6 of the concave portion 5 on the rear side, thereby fixing the toilet 1.

As shown in FIG. 3, the lower half 14b of the front plate
When only the cabinet 10 is attached, since the cabinet 10 is half the height and the upper part is open, the screwing operation of the screw member 7 in the recess 5 of the rear end portion 3 of the toilet is performed inside the cabinet 10. This can be performed by a path L (indicated by a two-dot chain line in the figure) reaching the recess 5 from the side through the notch 15 of the lower half 14b of the front plate.

Subsequently, in the cabinet 10,
After the drain pipe 21 and the drain pipe 22 are connected to the toilet 1 via connection members 25, 26, and 27 (see FIG. 4) as appropriate, the tank mounting plate 18 is erected and the washing water tank 23 is installed.

Subsequently, after performing necessary piping work such as connection work between the washing water tank 23 and a water tap (not shown),
Attach the front plate upper half 14a to the front of the washing water tank 23,
Finally, the top plate 16 (see FIG. 1) and, if necessary, the hand-washing machine 17
(See FIG. 2) to complete the work.

[0022]

According to the present invention, when the toilet is placed in contact with the front surface of the cabinet, the rear end of the toilet is not fixed to the cabinet, but is formed in the recess at the rear end of the toilet. Since it is fixed to the floor by the fixing member inserted through the hole, it is not necessary to increase the strength of the front plate of the cabinet. Therefore, cost reduction can be achieved.

Further, since the fixing member such as the nut is not exposed as in the conventional case, and the outer surface of the pedestal can be formed in a simple shape, the aesthetic appearance is improved and the cleaning becomes easy. In addition, since dust is less likely to accumulate, sanitation is also improved.

Further, with the simplification of the pedestal shape, the productivity of the toilet bowl is enhanced.
