Description

Urine Location Induction Device {.}

The present invention relates to an auxiliary device for a urinal installed around a male urinal. Most men urinate away from the urinals are often away from the residual urine falls on the floor will cause odor, unsanitary, and hurt the beauty of the toilet.

The present invention relates to a device installed around the male urinal to induce the position of the urinal.

Conventionally, when looking at the stool, the urinal is separated from the urine because it falls on the floor is unsanitary and hurt the beauty of the toilet. The phrase “one step forward” was written on the urinal to draw people closer to the urinal, but there was a problem that was not kept well because it was not actively induced. In order to clean the residual urine on the floor, a cleaning service is required, and accordingly, cleaning costs are incurred.

An object of the present invention for solving the above problems is to induce a person to urinate close to the urinal.

Still another object of the present invention is to reduce the cost of cleaning the toilet by inducing urine viewers to an appropriate distance so that residual urine does not fall on the floor.

It is provided to fully inform the person having the scope of the invention, which is defined only by the scope of the claims. Like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings for explaining a urine position induction device according to embodiments of the present invention.

Figure 2 is a block functional diagram showing a urine position induction device according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

3 is a flow chart showing the urine position induction device according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

Urine position guide device according to an embodiment of the present invention is a sensor unit 201 for measuring the weight, pressure or distance, the display unit 203 to visually display on the screen 101 or to display a voice through the speaker 102 And a control unit 202 which detects the position of the urinal by the signal transmitted from the sensor unit 201 and transmits the guide information to the display unit 203.

The sensor unit 201 has a configuration suitable for determining the position of the person urinating. In the case of using a weight sensor or a pressure sensor, a sensor is installed on the floor around the urinal 103 to detect the weight or the pressure when the person who is urinating touches the sensor and transmits an electrical signal to the controller 202. When using an infrared sensor or an ultrasonic sensor is installed on the floor or wall around the urinal to determine the distance approached by the person who is urinating and transmits an electrical signal to the control unit 202.

The electrical signal transmitted from the sensor unit 201 reaches the control unit 202. The controller determines whether the person who urinates is in an appropriate position to prevent the residual urine from falling down based on the electrical signal transmitted from the sensor unit 201 (S303). An embodiment of determining whether the person who pees is in an appropriate position will be described later.

If it is determined that the person who is urinating is in the proper position, the control unit 202 transmits the normal position message to the display unit 203 (S304). The normal position message means a complimentary message such as “Your Cultural Citizen!” And the urinal knows that the person is in the proper position.

When it is determined that the person who is urinating is in an inappropriate position, the controller 202 transmits an abnormal position message to the display unit 203 (S305). Abnormal position message means a message such as “one step further in the future” and leads the urine person to the proper position.

The display unit 203 is composed of a screen 101 that can display a message visually or a speaker 102 that can output a message by sound.

As an example of determining whether a person who urinates is in an appropriate position, there may be the following cases.

When the sensor unit 201 is composed of a weight sensor 104 or a pressure sensor and is installed at the bottom of each side of the urinal 103, respectively, when the weight or pressure is applied to the weight sensor 104 or the pressure sensor. It is judged to be in a proper position for. If no weight or pressure is applied, the person who urinates is determined to be in an inappropriate position.

When the sensor unit 201 is composed of an infrared sensor 106 or an ultrasonic sensor and is installed on the wall around the urinal 103, it is determined whether the person who urinates is in the proper position based on the distance between the sensor and the person who peees. do. The infrared sensor may measure the distance from the sensor to the object by using the intensity of the infrared rays emitted by the object reflected back to the object. For example, if the measured distance is more than 1m there is no person using a urinal, so there is no need to determine the normal position. If the measured distance is 1 m or less but more than the predetermined proper distance, the measured distance is not in the proper position, and the controller 202 transmits an abnormal position message to the display unit 203. When the distance measured from the sensor is less than or equal to the preset proper distance, the controller 202 transmits the normal position message to the display unit 203 because the controller 202 transmits the normal position message to the display unit 203. On the other hand, since the infrared sensor is used in the automatic flushing device (AUTO FLUSH) of the urinal for men, when combined with the automatic flushing device of the present invention can be used by sharing the infrared sensor.

When the sensor unit 201 is composed of a weight sensor 104 or a pressure sensor and is installed on both bottoms of the urinal 103, the preset threshold is compared with the weight and pressure values recognized from the weight sensor or the pressure sensor. If the weight and pressure value is above the threshold, it is determined that the person who urinate is in an appropriate position (S303). The weight and pressure value may be transmitted to the control unit as an analog value (potential) or may be transmitted to the control unit as a digital signal through an A / D converter. Thresholds are typically weights or pressures that detect a person's stepping on it, so setting it at about 10 kg is something that a person steps on if a non-human object (for example, a cat, such as a cat, steps on the sensor). Should not be recognized).

The sensor unit 201 may be composed of a weight sensor or a pressure sensor installed on each of the two bottoms around the urinal 103, respectively, and the two or more sensors within an area that can be normally stepped on at a time as a proper position. When it is recognized that each sensor is stepped on the threshold weight or above the threshold pressure, it is determined that the person who urinates is in the proper position. If one of the two or more sensors is not stepped on, it is determined that the person who urinates is not in the proper position.

The sensor unit 201 may be coupled to the sole shape 105. The sole shape 105 may induce the urine person to stand up by itself, but when combined with the sensor unit 201, the urine person outputs an abnormal position message when the urine person is not in the proper position to urinate the proper position. Visually easy to tell the viewer can more urine urine can lead to the appropriate position.

Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the present invention can be embodied in other specific forms without changing the technical spirit or essential features of the present invention. It is therefore to be understood that the above-described embodiments are illustrative in all aspects and not restrictive. The scope of the present invention is indicated by the scope of the following claims rather than the detailed description, and all changes or modifications derived from the meaning and scope of the claims and the equivalent concept are included in the scope of the present invention. Should be interpreted.
