Conventionally, as a sanitary cleaning device attached to a toilet bowl, a toilet seat and a toilet lid are pivotally attached to a machine casing attached to a toilet bowl via a hinge mechanism, and a nozzle for local cleaning, a hot water and driving power supply mechanism, and a hot water and driving power source are installed. A sanitary cleaning device with a built-in control device is used, but as this type of device becomes large, the external dimensions of the machine casing become large, making it difficult to install it on the toilet of a compactly housed Western-style unit bath. Not only is it difficult to clean, but there is a lot of water and humidity in the bathroom, and installing a conventional sanitary cleaning device with a built-in control device in the bathroom as it is has electrical problems such as insulation. It was basically impossible. For this reason, there are models called hand type, which have a hand nozzle that communicates with the main body through a flexible tube, which are operated by hand, and easy-installation types, which have a fixed nozzle that communicates with the main body through a flexible tube, and which are attached to a mounting plate fixed to the toilet bowl. A cleaning device with a simple structure was used.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

However, the hand type nozzle has to be operated by holding the hand nozzle in the hand, which is very cumbersome to operate, and because it has a so-called simple structure, water must be supplied to the main body in a timely manner. There are problems with operability. In addition, in the case of the simple installation type, the cleaning nozzle is installed with the cleaning nozzle protruding into the toilet bowl, so the nozzle is always dirty and the flexible tube that connects the main body and the fixed nozzle is crawling under the foot of the bathroom. This not only impairs the aesthetic appearance, but also causes problems such as the flexible tube getting caught on the flexible tube.

The present invention was created in view of the above problems, and
To provide a sanitary cleaning device for a Western-style unit bath that can be attached to a toilet of a compactly housed Western-style unit bath, has good operability, excellent electrical safety, and has a good aesthetic appearance. The purpose is to

[Means for Solving Problem C] The sanitary cleaning device for a Western-style unit bath according to the present invention has a structure in which the sanitary cleaning device is separated into a main body part and a functional part, and the part that is attached to the toilet bowl is miniaturized. In order to achieve the above object, the main body part is attached to the toilet bowl side, the toilet seat and the toilet lid are pivotally attached via a hinge mechanism, and the main body part accommodates a telescopic nozzle for cleaning private parts inside the machine casing, and the main body part. The hot water and drive power supply mechanism that supplies the main unit and the functional unit containing the hot water and drive power control device are separated, increasing the waterproofness of the main electrical parts, and combining the main unit and the functional unit into a single waterproof structure. The gist of the invention is that a water pipe and electrical wiring are installed inside the protective tube to communicate with each other through the protective tube.

[Effect]

That is, according to the above configuration, the toilet seat and toilet lid are pivotally attached to the toilet side via a hinge mechanism, and the main body housing the telescopic nozzle for private cleaning, which is the minimum essential structure, is installed inside the machine casing. The external dimensions of the machine cabinet can be designed to be small, and it can be installed in a toilet bowl for a Western-style unit bath that takes up little space.

In addition, the functional unit containing the hot water and driving power supply mechanism to be supplied to the main body and the hot water and driving power control device can be installed, for example, in the space below the sink counter of a Western-style unit bath, so that the electric power supply in the Western-style unit bath can be controlled. The main parts of the main body are waterproof, and the water pipes and electrical wiring that connect the main body and functional parts are housed in a single waterproof protective tube that communicates with them, which impairs the aesthetic appearance. Since the cleaning nozzle is of a telescopic and fixed type, the cleaning nozzle is of a fixed type, which provides good operability and a sanitary structure.
