のである。 In the conventional configuration shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 above, power is supplied to the heater 5 by connecting the power cord 3 to a commercial power source and adjusting the variable resistor 4 to an appropriate position. The toilet seat outer body 1 is heated through the insulating coating 6, the heated temperature is detected by the temperature sensor 8, and the amount of power supplied to the heater 5 is controlled to perform toilet seat heating.

た。 However, in the above-mentioned conventional configuration, the contact area between the heater 5 and the toilet seat outer body 1 is small, and both the insulation coating 6 and the toilet seat outer body 1 made of synthetic resin have poor thermal conductivity, so the heating rise time is It had the disadvantage that it was extremely long. Therefore, when the user starts energizing the heater 5 after sitting on the toilet seat outer body 1, the user has to endure the cold sensation for a while, which causes discomfort to the user. And there were many cases where I finished my business before it warmed up. So generally
The method of using the toilet is to leave it energized 24 hours a day, but in this case, electricity is constantly consumed even when the toilet seat is not in use, making it extremely wasteful. Further, due to the above-mentioned configuration, temperature unevenness occurs in the toilet seat outer body 1, which also causes discomfort to the user. Another drawback is that the structure of the toilet seat itself is complex and difficult to manufacture.
本発明は上記従来の欠点に鑑み、便座の加熱立

設計する。 4 is a sectional view of the section B-B' in FIG. 3, FIG. 5 is a sectional view of the section C-C' in FIG. 3, and FIG. 6 is a sectional view of the control in the above embodiment. In the circuit diagram, 15 is a rectifier bridge, 16 is a phase controller that changes the phase of the trigger pulse according to the value of the variable resistor 4 and the temperature sensor 8, and 17 is a trigger pulse of the phase controller 16. The power supply control element 18, which is triggered by this, controls the commercial power supply supplied to its primary side by the energization control element 17, and controls D 1 , D 2 on its secondary side.
This is a transformer to which the electrodes 13 and 14 of the toilet seat 11 are connected. Even if the turns ratio between the primary and secondary sides of this transformer 18 is set extremely high, the electrode of the toilet seat 11 is connected to the secondary side, and the primary side is fully energized, the voltage on the secondary side is It is designed to have an extremely low voltage of about a few volts. In addition, the transformer 18
The secondary impedance of the toilet seat 1 is the load.
The impedance is designed to be smaller than the impedance of 1.

にフイードバツクして自動温度制御が行われる。 In the above configuration, by connecting the power cord 3 to a commercial power supply and adjusting the variable resistor 4 to an appropriate position, a controlled commercial power supply is supplied to the primary side of the transformer 18, and the transformer 18
Since a low voltage and large current flows through the toilet seat 11 made of the metal plate through the secondary side of the toilet seat 11 and the electrodes 13 and 14, the toilet seat 11 is rapidly heated due to the current loss. The temperature of the toilet seat 11 is detected by the temperature sensor 8 that is in close contact with the toilet seat 11, and is fed back to the circuit for automatic temperature control.

は極めて少なくなる。 In the above configuration, since the toilet seat 11 itself that comes into contact with the human body generates heat, the heating start-up time is shortened, and since the toilet seat 11 is made of a metal plate with good heat conduction, the temperature of the toilet seat 11 becomes uniform. , the heating response delay between the surface of the toilet seat 11 and the temperature sensor 8 is almost eliminated. Therefore, overshoot and hunting will not occur, temperature unevenness will also be eliminated, and variations in the controlled temperature will be extremely small.

Further, if power supply control is not necessary, the variable resistor 4, rectifier bridge 15, phase controller 16, and power supply control element 17 are also unnecessary, and the power cord 3
It is only necessary to directly connect the primary side of the transformer 18 to the primary side of the transformer 18.
