Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to an electric toilet seat device that is attached to a Western-style toilet bowl or the like and has a built-in heating element.

The conventional electric toilet seat device, as shown in Fig. 5,
A case 21 containing electrical components and a toilet seat 22 containing a heating element are electrically connected by a curled electrical cord 23. However, this configuration has the disadvantage that when covering the toilet seat 22 with a cloth cover to improve seating comfort and feel, the cord extension part 24 of the toilet seat gets in the way and is difficult to cover. When the toilet seat 22 is used, urine is intentionally applied to the electric cord 23, and furthermore, force is applied to the electric cord 23 when cleaning the toilet seat 22 or opening and closing the toilet seat 22.

The present invention has been devised to solve the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks, and the present invention will be described below based on drawings showing embodiments thereof. Fig. 1 shows a Western-style toilet that employs an electric toilet seat device according to an embodiment of the present invention. 1 is a toilet main body, a toilet seat 2 is attached to the toilet seat 2, and the toilet seat 2 is attached to the toilet seat 2 so that it can be opened and closed. It is equipped with a lid 3 and a case 4 containing electrical parts. Reference numeral 5 denotes a power cord for supplying power to electrical components inside the case 4, which will be described later. FIGS. 2 and 3 show the relationship between the toilet seat 2 and the case 4. The toilet seat 2 is rotatably connected to the case 4 via a connecting part 6, and the case 4 is connected to the toilet seat 2.
It is placed opposite to the rear end surface of. Also toilet seat 2
As shown in FIG. 3, a heating element 7 is provided inside the heating element 7, and a temperature control device 8 such as a thermostat is installed to control the supply of electricity to the heating element 7 or to prevent an abnormal temperature rise in the heating element 7. It is provided.
Reference numeral 9 represents an electrical component such as a cleaning device built into the case 4, and a cleaning nozzle 10 is provided therein. Reference numeral 11 denotes a drive unit such as a pump and a motor for supplying hot water to the cleaning nozzle 10. Reference numeral 12 denotes a wiring cord extension part provided by cutting on the rear end surface of the toilet seat 2, and from this wiring cord extension part 12 the wiring cord 1 of the heating element 7 is connected.
Extend 3. 14 is the wiring cord extension part 1
The wiring cord penetration part 1 is provided in the wall 15 of the case 4 so as to face the wiring cord penetration part 1.
The notch 4 is cut out to a size that allows for a margin so that excessive force is not applied to the wiring cord 13 when the toilet seat 2 is opened and closed. Further, a power cord 5 for supplying power to electrical components 9 such as the cleaning device is extended outside the case 4 through a notch 16 provided in one side wall of the case 4.

In FIG. 4, reference numeral 17 denotes an electrical connection between an electrical component 9 such as a cleaning device and the wiring cord 13, and 18 denotes a wiring cord support portion for supporting the wiring cord 13 inside the case 4. 18 is provided at a position higher than the wiring cord extension part 12 of the toilet seat 2 by a dimension. By doing so, even if water splashes on the wiring cord 13 and is conducted and enters the case 4, it can be prevented from reaching the electrical connection portion 17. Also, the wiring cord penetration part 1 of the case 4
As shown in FIG. 3, 4 is provided close to the connection part 6 that rotatably connects the toilet seat 2 to the case 4, so when the toilet seat 2 is used, part or all of the wiring cord 13 is connected. The device is hidden under the portion 6, and as a result, it improves the appearance and also reduces the possibility of a child intentionally splashing urine on the device when using the device.

As described above, the present invention includes a case that is rotatably connected to the rear part of a toilet seat that has a heating element inside, and that has a built-in electrical component and is arranged opposite to the rear surface of the toilet seat. Since the wiring cord extension part of the heating element is provided on one side of this rear surface and the case that is almost opposite to the case, and the wiring cord penetration part is provided on the other side, the wiring cord can be easily removed even when the toilet seat is rotated. Since the amount of slack is absorbed within the case or toilet seat, unnecessary exposure of the wiring cord to the outside is minimized, so there is no problem when covering the toilet seat with a cloth cover or damage caused by catching the wiring cord. Problems such as insulation deterioration of wiring cords caused by being exposed to water or urine can be solved, and since the electrical parts themselves are protected by the case, deterioration is less likely to occur.
