Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a toilet seat that is equipped with a heating element inside its large interior to enable heating.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there have been toilet seats that have a heating element installed inside them so that they can be heated.

In such a toilet seat, both side edges of the toilet seat body are bent downward, and a back plate is provided between both side edges to protect a heating element provided in a space surrounded by the toilet seat body and the back plate. There is.

However, since the edges of this back plate were offset with adhesive to both edges of the toilet seat body, the cushioning effect when the toilet seat was used was reduced, and a large load was applied to the back plate during use, so the adhesive There have been disadvantages such as peeling off of the back plate, which no longer fulfills its function, and peeling of the bonded portion of the back plate, creating voids that reduce the heating effect.

The present invention was made with the aim of eliminating the drawbacks of the conventional toilet seat, and its gist is that both side edges 2, 2 of the toilet seat body 1 are bent downward, so that the toilet seat body 1 is bent downward. Both side edges of the back plate 3 provided on the back side are in contact with both side edges of the toilet seat body 1, and the toilet seat body and the back plate 3 are in contact with both side edges of the toilet seat body 1.
A heating element 4 is provided in a space 8 surrounded by
Column bodies 5 are provided at the front and rear parts of the toilet seat body 1 from the back surface of the toilet seat body 1, and the column bodies 5 are provided at the edges of the openings 7 provided in the back plate 3 at locations that match the column bodies 5. An elastic body 6 is inserted into the opening 7, and the elastic body 6 is fitted onto the columnar body 5. A ridge 11 is provided at the lower part of the elastic body, and the ridge 11 is provided at the lower part of the elastic body. Reference numeral 11 represents a toilet seat which is brought into contact with the edge of the opening 7 of the back plate 3 from below.

Next, an example of the toilet seat of the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

Reference numeral 1 denotes a toilet seat main body, which is made of synthetic resin, ceramic, metal, etc., and both side edges 2, 2 are bent downward.

3 is the back plate, which is made of synthetic resin, metal, etc.
It is provided between both side edges 2 on the back side of the toilet seat body 1.

A heating element 4 is placed in a space 8 surrounded by the toilet seat body 1 and the back plate 3.
is provided, and the toilet seat main body 1 can be heated by the heating element 4.

Since the edges of the back plate 3 are in contact with the side edges 2.2, the heat in the space 8 is prevented from escaping, and heating can be performed efficiently.

The heating element 4 may be in the form of a band as shown in the figure, or may be in the form of a coil.

An edge material 9 made of an elastic material such as soft rubber, synthetic resin foam, or sponge is scarified at the edge of the back plate 3, and may be brought into contact with the edge of the back plate 3.

By providing this edge material 9, the elasticity of the edge material 9 is used to increase the degree of adhesion between the edge of the back plate 3 and both side edges 2, 2 of the toilet seat body 1, and no gap is created. You can do it like this.

Reference numeral 5 denotes a columnar body, which is protruded from the front and rear parts of the toilet seat body 1 on the back surface of the toilet seat body 1, and corresponds to the edge of an opening 7 provided at a location on the back plate 3 that matches the columnar body 5. be touched.

The columnar body 5 is formed into a cylindrical shape, a rod shape, etc. so that the elastic body 6 can be fitted thereinto, and when the columnar body 5 is cylindrical, the elastic body 6 can be fitted into the opening thereof; By making the elastic body 6 into a crown shape, this can be fitted.

The elastic body 6 is made of a highly elastic material such as synthetic rubber, natural rubber, soft synthetic resin, or synthetic resin foam, and its lower end surface is in contact with the upper end surface of the toilet bowl 10. This provides a cushioning effect to the toilet seat.

The elastic body 6 is inserted into an opening 7 provided at a location on the back plate 3 that matches the elastic body 5, and is fitted onto the columnar body 5.

The peripheral edge of the columnar body 5 is brought into contact with the peripheral edge of the opening 7 of the back plate 3 from above.

The elastic body 6 is provided with a projecting edge 11, and the projecting edge 11 abuts the peripheral edge of the opening 7 of the back plate 3 from below.
Furthermore, the protruding edge 11 allows the fitting depth to the columnar body 5 to be constant.

12 is a cord for connecting to a power source.

Since the toilet seat of the present invention has the above configuration, the elastic body 6 fitted to the columnar body 5 provides an excellent cushioning effect when the toilet seat is used.

Both side edges of the back plate 3 are the both side edges 2, 2 of the toilet seat body 1.
Since it is in contact with the back plate 3, it is possible to prevent the heat heated by the heating element 4 from escaping from the space 8, and the space between the edge of the back plate 3 and the toilet seat body 1 can also be prevented due to the load when the toilet seat is in use. Heating can be performed efficiently without creating gaps.

Further, since the back plate 3 is brought into contact with the edge of the opening 7 from above by the columnar body 5 and from below by the ridge 11 of the elastic body 6, no displacement will occur.
