Description

[Detailed description of the invention] 〔Technical field〕 The present invention relates to a sanitary cleaning device for cleaning private parts.

[Prior art]

Conventionally, sanitary washing devices have a configuration that includes functions such as a hot water washing device that spouts hot water, a hot air drying device that spouts hot air, and a heated toilet seat. In order to operate these functions, an operating section and a control section are provided, and for example, in the case of a hot water cleaning device, a sensor, a heater, a flow rate adjustment valve, etc. for detecting and adjusting the hot water temperature and flow M are provided. The hot air dryer and heated toilet seat are also equipped with the necessary equipment. As described above, functions have diversified in order to provide comfortable cleaning, and maintenance and inspection have become complicated and extremely difficult.

[Object of the Invention] In order to facilitate maintenance and inspection, the present invention includes a function to detect and diagnose failures in component equipment, and allows visual confirmation of failure indications by making it possible to substitute operation indicator lights for failure indications. The purpose is to facilitate.

[Structure of the invention]

The configuration of the present invention includes hot water cleaning and heated toilet seat, or hot water cleaning,
In a sanitary cleaning device equipped with warm air drying and heated toilet seat functions, it has a means for detecting and diagnosing abnormalities in each functional component device, and the abnormality display is substituted for the operation display means for each function arranged on the operation section. This is what I decided to do.

〔Example〕

The present invention will be explained below based on embodiments shown in the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a sanitary cleaning device according to the present invention, and in the figure (
11 is a toilet bowl with a toilet bowl (1a) formed therein, (2) is a flush water tank, (3) is a heated toilet seat, and (4) is a toilet lid.

Furthermore, (5) is the main body of the sanitary cleaning device, which has a hot water cleaning device (6) and a hot air drying device (7) inside, and also includes these re-equipment +61. f? + and the temperature of the heated toilet seat (3),
It has a built-in control section (A) for controlling operations, etc., and an operation section (B) is provided on the panel section. Further, (8) is a cleaning nozzle that is a part of the hot water cleaning device (6) and can move forward and backward in the direction of the toilet bowl (1a), and (9) is a hot air outlet provided near the nozzle (8).

In the above configuration, a heated toilet seat (3), a hot water washing device (6)
) and the hot air drying device (7), the temperature and operation are controlled by the operating section (B
) is controlled by the control unit (A).

Figure 2 is a front view showing the panel part of the operation section (B), which includes a cleaning switch (S-1) that operates the hot water cleaning device (6), a bidet switch (S-2), and a hot air drying device (7). The hot air drying switch (S-, 3) operates the hot air drying switch (S-3), the stop switch (S-4) stops these operations at any time, and the water pressure adjustment volume (S-7) adjusts the washing water pressure during normal washing. It is arranged for use in.

(S-5) is a hot water heater switch 2 that turns on and off the heater of the hot water washing device (6), (S-6) is a toilet seat switch that turns on and off the heater of the heated toilet seat (3), Temperature adjustment volume (C-1), (C-2) that sets hot water temperature, hot air temperature 1°C, and toilet seat temperature to arbitrary values.
, (C-3) are covered with a cover (co) and placed in a buried state.

Also, (L-1), (L-2), (L-3), (
L-5) and (L-6) are indicator lights that light up when anal cleaning, bidet cleaning, hot air drying, hot water heater, and toilet seat heater are activated, respectively.

FIG. 3 is a block section showing a control system including a control section (A) and an operation section (B). First, to talk about the hot water cleaning system, the cleaning nozzle (8) has a heater 00), a temperature sensor (1
1) is communicated with the hot water storage tank (12) containing a built-in hot water tank (12).
12) has a solenoid valve (13) in the middle and communicates with a water supply source such as water supply. (14) This is a 1llJ water volume regulator installed between the hot water storage tank (12) and the cleaning nozzle (8), and the cleaning hot water is controlled by the control unit (A) via the temperature sensor (11) and heater 00). The hot water temperature is set using the hot water temperature adjustment volume (C-1) of the operating section (B).

The water volume regulator (14) consists of a solenoid valve (13) and a hot water tank (12).
It may be placed between. There is also a method of using a pump instead of the solenoid valve (13) and drawing water from the wash water tank (2) as a water supply source. In this case, it is possible to adjust the amount of water by controlling the rotation or reciprocation of the pump.

The cleaning nozzle (8) is moved forward and backward in the axial direction by the motor (15), and is advanced to reach the anus cleaning position by operating the cleaning switch (S-1) and the bidet cleaning position by operating the bidet 6-value switch (S-2). Detection of the cleaning position and storage position of the cleaning nozzle (8) is performed by a position sensor (16).

Next, talking about the hot air drying system, the hot air drying device (7)
is a blower fan (19) and a heater (
20), a temperature sensor (21), and a blower fan (19)
) and the heater (20) using the hot air drying switch (S
-3), and the hot air temperature is set using the hot air temperature adjustment volume (C-2).

A heater (17) and a temperature sensor (18) are attached to the toilet seat (3), and both control the toilet seat temperature.
The heater (17) is energized by the toilet seat switch (S-6), and the temperature is set by the toilet seat temperature adjustment volume (C-3).
).

In addition, each switch (S-1) to (S-6) with indicator lights (L to 1) to (L-6) and the stop switch (S-4) are automatic return type tact switches, and each temperature adjustment The volumes (C-1), (C-2), and (C-3) are covered with a current-carrying cover (CO).

Next, let's talk about the effect. In the block diagram of Fig. 3, when the stop switch (S-4) is held down, the 41 o'clock means (T1) starts counting, and continues counting after a certain period of time (k; in this example, 130 seconds). The operation time determining means (M-2) instructs the display function switching means (T3) to switch the display. On the other hand, the failure detection means (T4) constantly detects the occurrence of failure in each functional section, and when a failure is detected, it is stored in the failure storage means (M-5). The fault display switching is input to the display function switching means (T1-3) whose display has been switched by the fault storage means (M-5), and the indicator light (
Any one of L-1) to (1,4) lights up or blinks. FIG. 4 is a flowchart for executing such control.

The fault location can be known by lighting or blinking these indicator lights (L-1) to (L-6), but for example, the indicator light (L-1) of the cleaning switch (S-1) is lit If the indicator light (L-3) of the hot air drying switch (S-3) is lit, the hot air drying device (7) and the toilet seat switch (S-6) are activated. If the indicator light (L-6) lights up, the toilet seat (3) may be configured to detect a faulty location.

In addition, malfunction indications for detailed items such as the motor (15) of the cleaning nozzle (8) can be easily determined by setting the lighting combinations of indicator lights (L-1) to (L-6) to correspond to each item. can be known.

〔effect〕

According to the present invention, the indicator light on the operation unit can be used as a fault indicator light with a simple operation, visual judgment is easy, and there is no need to provide a dedicated fault indicator light, and the number of parts can be reduced, so the structure is simple. It has the effect of being simple and inexpensive.
