Abstract

Provided is a toilet seat device configured to reduce electronic power consumption in the structure of a safety operation without lowering the safety of the toilet seat device, thereby more enhancing of energy saving characteristics. A main control unit (10) of a toilet seat judges whether the toilet seat device is in a using condition or not by using results detected by a sitting sensor (56) or a human body sensor (57). When the main control unit judges that the toilet seat device is not in a using condition, the main control unit cuts off supplying an electric current to a coil (22) of a leakage current cutting-off unit of a relay mechanism (20). Hence, the toilet seat device enters an electric power saving mode. Further, when the toilet seat device becomes in a using condition, the supply of the electric current to the coil (22) is restored, so that the toilet seat device returns to an ordinary mode.

Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a toilet seat device such as a warm toilet seat and a warm water washing toilet seat, and more particularly to a toilet seat device having a leakage blocking function and further improving energy efficiency. Background of the Invention A toilet seat such as a warm toilet seat and a warm water washing toilet is a sanitary device. Therefore, since it is installed in an environment in which water is used, since it has an electric product, it is necessary to have a leakage blocking function against countermeasures against electric leakage. Specifically, for example, a configuration in which a power plug for supplying power to the toilet seat device and the earth leakage breaker are integrated, or a configuration in which the toilet seat body includes a leakage cutoff circuit can be known. In general, §, leakage circuit breaker or leakage circuit (hereinafter referred to as leakage blocking portion for convenience) has a mechanical mechanism represented by a relay in order to reliably disconnect electrical connection during operation. Various configurations have been proposed as a toilet seat having such a leakage cut-off portion. For example, in the state in which the leakage blocking portion is operated, the commercial power source is sure to block the portion where the electric power may be sensed, and it is only possible to ensure that the female full body portion continues to be energized. However, in the field of toilet seat devices, various technologies have been proposed and put into practical use in order to improve energy efficiency. For example, the inventors of the present invention reduced the power consumption by using electric power only when using the "hot water supply" and the "instant warm toilet seat" in the warm water washing toilet seat (sanitary washing device), 201010658 Energy-saving technologies have been put into practical use. "Instant water supply" is a technique for supplying warm water to the "water boiling unit" (4) when using warm water for washing. The "instant warm toilet seat" is a warm toilet seat in a few seconds. The technology of warm toilet seat when using. In addition, in order to improve energy efficiency, the method of reducing standby power has also been widely carried out. CITATION LIST Patent Literature Patent Literature 1: JP-A-2008-082044 C SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention discloses a problem to be solved by the invention in the so-called Kyoto Protocol, and in order to achieve the goal of reducing carbon dioxide emissions imposed on various countries, it is advancing Both the official and the private sector are further energy efficient. It is known that the number of households in Japan is about 4% of the household's electricity consumption, and it is also the sixth most power-consuming person in various household electrical appliances (according to the “Introduction to the power needs of the National Energy and Energy Agency”. Therefore, further energy saving is required for the toilet seat device. However, in the configuration of the toilet seat device, the power consumption is large, and the standby power is sufficiently reduced by the techniques such as the "instant hot water supply" and the "instant warm toilet seat", and the other facilities are related to the toilet seat device. Since the basic operation and the safe operation are performed, it is difficult to reduce the standby power. The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a toilet seat device that further improves energy-saving power by reducing the power consumed by the configuration of the safe operation of the toilet seat device without reducing safety. 201010658 — Means to solve the problem ・ The inventor of Shuming is the result of the above-mentioned problem*, which is uniquely seen in the relay of the leakage device of the toilet seat device, by controlling the coil used for its opening and closing ( The energization of the relay contact drive coil) can of course reduce the standby power without hindering the leakage breaker, so that the present invention can be completed. That is, the toilet seat device of the present invention is used to solve the above problems, and is constructed to include: a toilet seat; a toilet seat heater for heating the toilet seat; and a main supply circuit m for supplying power to at least the toilet seat heater for at least blocking the circuit when electric leakage occurs. a leakage blocking portion of the main supply circuit; and a controller for controlling at least the leakage cutoff °p. The leakage blocking portion is composed of at least a relay 15 and a relay driving portion, and the relay has a relay contact and a driving coil. The relay contact is closed when the driving coil is energized, and is turned on during non-energization, thereby at least conducting and blocking the main supply circuit, and the relay driving unit drives the driving coil of the relay, and the controller* is configured to be= In the power-saving operation, when the toilet seat is not used, the relay drive unit blocks the energization of the drive coil to block the main supply circuit, and when the toilet seat is used again, The relay drive unit restarts energization of the driver to turn on the main supply circuit. According to the configuration described above, when the toilet seat device is not used, the components included in the leakage blocking portion provided for safety are blocked from energizing the relay contact drive coil for opening and closing the relay. Therefore, it will not affect the safety of the use and loss of the aforementioned toilet seat device, that is, it can reduce the low standby power of 201010658. As a result, both excellent safety and energy efficiency can be achieved. In the above-described toilet seat apparatus, not only the above configuration but also a power saving setting device for setting the power saving operation is selected, and the controller performs the power saving operation in the power saving operation setting of the power saving setting device, and saves the power saving operation. The aforementioned power saving operation is not performed during the electric operation non-setting. According to the above configuration, it is possible to set whether or not to perform the power saving operation based on the judgment of the user. Therefore, the above-described toilet seat device can more appropriately perform the power saving operation. In the above-described toilet seat device, not only the above configuration but also the leakage blocking portion further includes a leakage detector for detecting leakage of the main supply circuit, and the controller transmits the relay drive unit when the leakage detector detects leakage. It is preferable to block the energization of the drive coil to isolate the main supply circuit. According to the configuration described above, the leakage detecting device can detect the leakage state, and the leakage blocking portion automatically operates. Therefore, the leakage device can be more appropriately implemented in the toilet seat device. In the above-described toilet seat device, not only the above configuration but also a user detector for detecting a user is provided, and the controller determines whether the toilet seat device is in an unused state or is used again by the user detector. While in the use state, and in the aforementioned non-use state, it is preferable to perform the aforementioned electric power saving. According to the above configuration, it is possible to control the power saving operation when it is confirmed that the toilet seat device is not in use. Thus, the power saving operation can be performed at an appropriate timing without hindering the use of the aforementioned toilet seat device. The above-described toilet seat apparatus is configured to include not only the above-described configuration, but also a washing device that has been partially seated on the user of the toilet seat, and the washing device has at least a warm water heater that heats the washing water. The main supply circuit supplies power to the aforementioned cleaner. According to the above configuration, the toilet seat device has a sanitary washing function and a leakage cut-off function. Therefore, even if the main supply circuit that supplies electric power to the warm water heater having a large electric power leaks, the leakage cut-off portion can appropriately perform the blocking operation. Moreover, the leakage blocking portion can also be subjected to a power saving operation. Advantageous Effects of Invention As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to reduce the power consumed by the configuration of the safe operation of the related toilet seat device without reducing the safety, and it is possible to further improve the energy saving performance.

In this case, the leakage blocking portion that blocks the leakage is provided in the toilet seat device 50. The relay mechanism 20 includes a relay contact 21 as a mechanical switching mechanism, and a coil (relay contact drive coil) 22 for driving the relay contact 21. Further, the coil 22 is constructed to generate a magnetic field in accordance with energization of the relay drive unit 12. In other words, the coil driving unit 12 energizes or stops the energization of the coil 22 to generate and destroy a magnetic field in the coil 22, and the contact piece 21a contacts and isolates the contact terminal 21b according to the generation and elimination of the magnetic field, whereby the contact piece is used. The electrical contact (relay contact) 21 formed by 21a and the contact terminal 21b is closed and opened. The leakage cut-off portion of this embodiment is constructed such that the main power supply path 81 can be turned on and off. 12 201010658 As described above, the relay contact 21 is magnetically opened and closed according to the coil 22 and the relay drive unit 12, but the 'relay contact 21 and the coil 22 are electrically independent, so the 'relay drive unit 12 and the leakage detecting unit 13 and the main control abnormality processing unit 15 and the like are interlocked with the relay contact 21 and the relay abnormality detecting unit 14 in an electrically independent state. Although the specific configuration of the relay mechanism 20 is not particularly limited, a well-known relay can be suitably utilized. The relay mechanism 20 is provided in a portion constituting one of the main supply circuits 81 and the electric wirings 81a, 81b as close as possible to the power supply plug 30. In this case, the contact terminals 21b of the respective relay mechanisms 20 are inserted into the respective electric wires 81a and 81b constituting the main supply circuit 81. The relay drive unit 12 is a mechanism that controls the opening and closing operation of the relay contact 21 of the relay mechanism 20, and switches the energization and deactivation of the coil 22 in accordance with the opening and closing operation control signal output from the main control unit 1 to cause the relay to be connected. Point 21 opens and closes. The relay drive unit 12 is constructed to be further connected to the electric leakage detecting unit 13, and the relay unit 20 is also opened and closed when the leakage detecting unit 13 detects electric leakage. The specific configuration of the relay driving unit 12 is not particularly limited, and can be realized by a driving circuit using a well-known switching element such as a transistor. The circuit configuration employed in this embodiment will be described later. The leakage detecting unit 13 detects a presence or absence of electric leakage based on the control of the main control unit 10 and outputs it to the relay driving unit 12. The present embodiment includes a zero-phase current transformer (ZCT) configured by winding a detecting coil. According to this configuration, a voltage is generated in the ZCT due to a difference in current between the currents flowing through one of the main wirings 81 and 81b. Thereby, the electric leakage 13 201010658 The detecting unit 13 detects the electric leakage to generate a leakage generating signal and outputs it to the relay driving unit 12. The leakage driving unit 12 receives this signal to stop the energization of the coil 22 and turn on the relay contact 21. As a result, the main supply circuit 81 is blocked to block the leakage. Moreover, it is preferable to use a ZCT as the leakage detecting unit 13, but other well-known configurations can be used. The relay abnormality detecting unit 14 is configured to be connected to the main supply circuit 81, and can detect that the opening and closing operation of the relay contact 21 is abnormal and rotates to the main control unit. The specific configuration is not particularly limited. However, since it is necessary to be electrically independent from the main power supply path 81, it is preferable to use a photocoupler to generate a circuit configuration of the relay opening and closing operation determination signal. The circuit configuration employed in this embodiment will be described later. The main control abnormality processing unit 15 is configured to be electrically connected between the main control unit and the coil 22 of the relay mechanism 20, and to detect whether the control of the main control unit 1 is normal, and if the control of the main control unit 1 is abnormal, At least the process of opening and closing the relay mechanism 20 is performed. In other words, in the state in which the main control abnormality processing unit I5 is provided to perform the function check of the main control unit 10 necessary for the control of the toilet seat device 50, at least the leakage mechanism of the relay mechanism 2 can be prevented from being affected by the control problem. It is not possible to function. The specific configuration of the main control abnormality processing unit 15 is not particularly limited as long as the signal output from the main control unit 10 is normal, and the circuit configuration of the relay mechanism 20 can be normally opened and closed. In addition, when the main control unit 1 generates a control abnormality, the main control abnormality processing unit 15 may perform a process of stopping the operation of the configuration other than the relay mechanism 20. For example, it is also possible to construct a process of stopping the whole body motion of the toilet seat apparatus 50 in the case where it is judged that there is a problem in the overall control of the toilet seat apparatus 201010658-50. The toilet seat device 50 of the present embodiment includes a warm water heater 41a, a drying heater 41b, a toilet seat heater 42, a deodorizing and drying fan 43, a toilet seat and a lid opening and closing portion 44, and a washing machine as shown in the figure.

Each of the heaters is a mechanism that may contact the body of the user, and the voltage value during the warming operation or the heating operation is relatively increased. Therefore, the main circuit including the heaters is as shown in FIG. The construction is based on the opening operation of the relay (ie, the blocking operation of the leakage blocking portion) by the relay mechanism 2〇, and is electrically blocked (leakage interruption) when the leakage occurs. Further, depending on the configuration of the toilet seat device 50, leakage blocking can be performed with respect to the configuration other than the mechanisms. Each of the heaters performs heating operation and temperature adjustment in accordance with an output signal from the main control unit 1 by a * warm water heater and drying heater regulator 31 or a toilet seat adjusting portion. The deodorizing and drying fan 43 is a type of wind that is used for deodorizing and drying the washed buttocks and the like when the toilet seat is placed 5 inches. The toilet seat and the lid opening and closing portion 44 are for automatically opening and closing the toilet seat portion 53 and the lid portion $(4) closing mechanism. The cleaning nozzle 55 is constructed to be housed in the unit 5 in an unused state. However, it is protruded from the main body portion 51 during use and sprays warm water toward the portion (see Fig. 2). These mechanisms are based on the output signal from the main control unit 10, and are driven by the deodorizing and drying fan driving unit 33, the toilet seat and the lid opening/closing machine 15 or the washing nozzle 35. Further, the specific configuration of the _, the washing nozzle, and the like is not particularly limited, and a well-known configuration can be suitably used in the technical field of the present invention. The toilet seat device 50 of the present embodiment includes a display and operation unit 52, a seating sensor 56, and a human body sensor 57 as shown in the second and second figures. As shown in Fig. i, the overall control unit 1〇 controls the overall operation, and the outputs from these units can also be input to the main control unit 1〇. ^ In the display and operation unit 52, according to the operation of the user, various operation signals are output (rounded) to the main (four) portion, and the main control office performs the operation according to the operation (4). The measuring device 56 is configured to be disposed, for example, behind the toilet seat portion to detect that the user is seated on the toilet seat. The human body sensor 57 is constructed, for example, in the vicinity of a person π disposed in the toilet (ranging room), and can detect the user entering the temple. The detection signals of the sensors 56 and 57 are rotated to the main control (4), and the overall control of the toilet device 5 () including the state of use of the toilet seat device 50. The specific display and operation unit 52 The configuration is not particularly limited, and a display device known as a light-emitting element such as an LED may be used as a display portion, and various well-known buttons or switches may be used as the operation portion. Alternatively, a touch panel type liquid crystal display may be used. The configuration of the seat sensor % and the human body sensor 57 is not particularly limited, and in the technical field of the present invention and other technical fields, it is possible to appropriately use the human body as a human detection technology. Here, a reflective infrared sensor can be used as the seating sensor % and the human body sensor 57. Further, in the present embodiment, the display and operation unit 52 is provided to perform the function of the leakage blocking function. The test button 58 and the power-saving switch 59 of the test are confirmed, and the contents of the test will be described in the following paragraphs: 201010658. [Configuration example of the relay drive unit and the relay abnormality detecting unit] The toilet seat device of the present invention is used for partitioning when the toilet seat device is not used. Controlling the power-saving state of the coil of the leakage blocking portion configured as described above and reducing the standby power. More specifically, the control of the power-saving operation will be described. First, the electric drive unit 12 of the subsequent leakage blocking portion will be described in detail with reference to FIG. An example of a specific configuration of the relay abnormality detecting unit 14. Fig. 3 is a circuit diagram showing an example of a specific circuit configuration of the relay driving unit 12 and the relay abnormality detecting unit 14 as the leakage blocking unit of the portable device 50. In the toilet apparatus 50 of the embodiment, the relay drive unit 12 and the relay abnormality detecting unit 14 are as shown in FIG. 3, and include a relay mechanism 20. The main supply circuit 81 is included in the electrically independent control circuit. As described above, the relay contact 21 of the relay mechanism 20 is magnetically coupled to the coil 22, but is electrically independent, and the coil 22 is transmitted through the relay drive unit 12 The main control unit 1 is electrically connected. The relay abnormality detecting unit 14 is connected to the main supply circuit 81 via the optical coupler 72a, but is electrically independent. The main supply circuit 81 of this embodiment. As shown in Fig. 3, the relay mechanism 2A including the relay contact 21 is connected in a competitive manner, and is connected in parallel with the warm water heater 41a, the dry heater 41b, and the toilet heater 42 in a state of crossing the pair of electric wires 81a and 81b. In this embodiment, the red silk thread is provided as both a warm toilet seat function and a function as a sanitary washing device. However, the toilet seat heater 42 is a warm and comfortable touch component, and the dry heating heater and the warm water heater 41b are provided. In order to facilitate the description of the components of the cleaner such as a partial cleaning, the temperature of the cleaning function is compared with the toilet heater 42 in FIG. 3, and the water heater 41a and the drying heater 41b are described. It is composed of a single circuit. Further, the AC power source is connected to the main supply circuit 81 through the relay mechanism 20. The warm water heaters 41a and 41b and the toilet seat heater 42 are connected in series to the three-terminal bidirectional switches 71a and 72b, respectively, and are configured to control the timing (current-on period) during which the alternating current flows to the heaters 41a, 41b, and 42. Further, a series connection circuit of the diode 71c and the resistor 71d is connected in parallel with the heaters 41a, 41b, and 42, and the light-emitting diodes constituting the light-emitting elements of the photocoupler 72a are connected in parallel with the diode 71c. The rectifying directions are opposite to each other. Therefore, when a predetermined one-way energization of the alternating current is performed, the light-emitting diode emits light, and the light-emitting element receives the light and outputs a reversed binary signal every half cycle of the alternating current. The relay abnormality detecting unit 14 of the present embodiment includes the diode 71c, the resistor 71d, and the optical shank 72a', and includes a transistor 72c that connects the output side of the light absorbing device 72a, and connects the transistor 72c. Resistors 72b and 72d. The light receiving element of the optical shank coupler 72a of this embodiment is constituted by a photoelectric crystal, and the emitter of the photoelectric crystal is connected to the base of the transistor 72c through the resistor 72b. Further, the emitter of the transistor 72c is grounded, and one of the terminals of the resistor 72d is connected to the collector. The voltage (potential) of the connection point (node) 72e of one of the terminals of the resistor 72d and the collector of the transistor 72c is input to the main control unit 1A. Further, the other terminal of the resistor 72d is connected to the collector of the photo transistor of the light consuming device 72a, and is connected to a positive voltage source (Vcc). The positive voltage source (Vcc) is constituted by an output terminal of the power supply circuit unit 11 or is connected to the output terminal. According to this configuration, when the photo-crystal does not receive light from the light-emitting element, the s history is OFF (open), the transistor 72c is turned OFF, and the voltage of the node 72e is 18 201010658 positive power supply voltage (Vcc). When the photo transistor receives light from the light-emitting element, it is turned ON, the transistor 72c is turned ON, and the voltage of the node 72e is the ground potential. As a result, the binary signal in which the binary signal output from the photo-crystal of the photocoupler 72a is inverted is output as a relay failure detection signal from the node 72e. The relay driving unit 12 of this embodiment includes a resistor 733a, a transistor 73b, a resistor 73c, a transistor 73d, a transistor 73e, a resistor 73f, a diode 73g, and a diode 73h. The main control unit 10 transmits a relay drive signal to the base of the transistor 73b through the resistor 73a, the diode 73h, and the transistor 73e. Further, the emitter of the transistor 73b is grounded, and the collector is connected to one terminal of the coil 22 of each relay mechanism 20. The base of the transistor 73b is pulled up more than the resistor 73f and connected to the collector of the transistor 73d. The emitter of the transistor 73d is grounded, and the base is connected to the downstream side of the rectifying direction of the diode 73d. The upstream side of the rectifying direction of the diode 73d is connected to the leakage detecting portion 13 through the resistor 73c. The downstream side of the rectifying direction of the diode 73h is connected to the base of the transistor 73e, and the upstream side transmitting resistor 73a is connected to the main control unit 10. The emitter of the transistor 73e is grounded, and the collector is connected to the electrode 73f, the base of the transistor 73b, and the collector of the transistor 73d. The other terminal of the coil 22 of each of the relay mechanisms 20 is connected to a portion closer to the power plug 30 side than the relay contact 21 of the main supply circuit 81. When the main control unit 10 outputs a signal for energizing the coil 22 to close the relay contact 21 (hereinafter referred to as a relay ON signal), the transistor 73e is turned off, and the transistor 73b is turned on. Therefore, the relay contact 21 is closed. With respect to this, when the relay OFF signal for turning on the relay contact 21 is output from the main control unit 10, the transistor 73e is turned ON, and the transistor 73b is turned off, so that 19 201010658 the relay contact 21 is turned on. When H occurs, the leakage current is generated from the leakage detecting unit 13 when the occurrence occurs. ° Input transistor 73 (1 time transistor 73d is OFF, because 'transistor 73t^〇N, relay contact 21 is closed. In contrast, the signal is inserted into the transistor 7 (3), therefore, the crystal is OFF 'The relay contact 21 is turned on and the leakage is cut off. [Power saving operation and control of the leakage cut-off part] Lie, according to Fig. 3 to Fig. 5, the power saving action and control of the leakage cut P of this embodiment are explained. Fig. 4 is a flow chart showing an example of the control of the power saving operation by the main control unit. Fig. 4 (4) and (9) are the blocking operation of the leakage blocking portion by the control of the fourth figure. When the relay opening/closing operation determination signal is used, and the relay is normally opened and closed, and when the opening/closing error occurs, the diagram is compared. In the present embodiment, the relay drive unit 12 and the relay abnormality detecting unit 146 are configured as described above. When the confirmation test of the opening and closing of the relay contact 21 (ie, the confirmation test of the leakage cutoff function) is performed, it is determined not only whether the relay contact 21 is normally opened but also at the relay contact 21 In the case where an abnormality occurs in the opening or closing, it is also possible to determine the abnormality. When the user operates the power saving switch 59 that has been placed in the operating unit 50 and is set to the power saving mode, the time from the setting to the elapse of the predetermined time The main control unit 101 performs the power saving mode described below. The main control unit 10 first determines in step S101 whether or not a predetermined time has elapsed after the confirmation of the previous use state has ended. At the time (NO in step 20 201010658 S101), it is repeatedly determined that the predetermined time has elapsed, and a series of controls are standby. When the predetermined time has not been reached or the predetermined time has elapsed (YES in step S101), the toilet seat device is determined in step S102. Whether the 50 is not in use. In the present embodiment, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the toilet seat device 50 includes a seating sensor 56 and a human body sensor 57, and therefore, according to the sensors, a certain period of time When the presence of the user and the user are not detected, it is determined that the user is not in use. Here, in order to save energy, it is possible to set a minimum amount of electricity to be suppressed. When the standby state of the consumption is used as the use state of the toilet seat device 50, the situation in which the predetermined period of time has elapsed after entering the standby state can be determined as the non-use state. The present invention detects the seating detection and detection of the seated device seated on the toilet seat portion 53. 50 The installation location has the result of the user's user detection, and is used at least for determining the use state, and the specific determination method may be any method. Moreover, when the toilet seat device 50 does not perform the warming operation of the toilet seat heater 42, or When the washing operation of the washing nozzle 55 is performed, it is determined that the battery is not in use. However, in consideration of the present invention, the leakage blocking function is more appropriately performed, and the state in which one part of the user's body is not in contact with the toilet seat device 50 is determined not to be used. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the main control unit 1 更 uses the detection result of at least one of the seating detection or the human body detection to determine the use state of the toilet seat apparatus 5 。. When the main control unit 1 determines that it is in the non-use state (in the use state), the main control unit 1 stands by until the use state (NO in step S1). When it is determined that the state is not in use or the non-use state is reached (YES in step 21 201010658 S102), in step S103, the main control unit 10 outputs a relay drive signal to the relay drive unit 12, that is, stops energization of the coil 22 and outputs A relay OFF signal that turns relay contact 21 on. Here, when the relay OFF signal is output in step S103, the transistor 73b of the relay driving unit 12 is turned OFF. When the relay mechanism 2 is normally turned on, the relay contact 21 is turned on by the energization of the coil 22. The coil 22 is energized before the relay OFF signal is output, so

However, as described above, the optical coupler 72& detects the alternating current according to the relay abnormality detecting portion 14, and inputs from the node 72e toward the main control portion 10. The binary signal corresponding to the period of the alternating current ^ (inverted every half cycle) is used as the signal for determining the action of the relay. As a result, when the relay mechanism 2 normally opens the door, as shown in Fig. 5(a), it is formed in the middle stage of the output relay ON signal), and the binary current is output in accordance with the period of the alternating current (upper stage in the figure) (Fig. 1) The middle and lower sections are left) and output to the main control unit 10.

On, ' ^ electrical drive signal, convenient to call it relay OFF signal. Therefore, when the relay OFF signal is output in step S103, the -θ electric appliance 20 normally performs the opening operation, the relay contact 21 is opened, the corner angle is not flowing the alternating current to the main supply circuit 81, and the relay is relayed: The binary signal of k is a signal fixed to a high level or a low level (here, a high level). On the other hand, the relay contact 21 is opened by ^, and when the relay OFF signal is turned on, the relay contact is not 1 22 201010658 and the original is kept in the closed state, as shown in Fig. 5 (a) even if the relay is The ON signal is switched to the OFF signal, and the binary signal corresponding to the period of the alternating current is continuously output. Hereinafter, this abnormality is referred to as "ON failure" of the relay contact 21. Therefore, the main control unit 10 acquires the relay opening/closing operation determination signal by the relay abnormality detecting unit 14 in step S104, and determines whether or not the relay opening and closing operation determination signal corresponds to the period of the alternating current in step S105, and corresponds to this (in step S105, Then, as described above, it is determined that the relay contact 21 has an ON failure (step S106). On the other hand, if it is not corresponding (NO in step S105), since the relay 21 is normally turned on, the main control unit 10 switches the entire toilet seat apparatus 50 to the power saving state and starts the power saving mode. . Generally, in the power saving mode, the energization of the warm water heater 41a, the drying heater 41b, the toilet seat heater 42 and the like which consume a large amount of power is blocked, but in the power saving mode of the present invention, the relay contact 21 is Turning on, not only the heaters 41a, 41b, and 42 but also the energization of the coil 22 driven by the relay contact 21 is blocked. In this way, energy efficiency can be further improved. In the next step S108, it is determined whether or not the toilet seat device 50 is in the use state. That is, the main control unit 1 determines whether or not the power saving operation is continuously maintained. When the squatting device 50 is in the non-use state, the main control unit 1 〇 determines to continue the non-use state and continues the power saving operation with the relay 0FF signal (NO in step S108), if it is determined that the toilet seat device 5 is in use or In the use state (YES in step S108), in order to switch from the power saving mode to the normal mode, the process proceeds to step S109. 23 201010658 In step S109, the main control unit 1 switches the relay 〇FF signal to the relay (10) signal to drive and output the relay. Here, it is explained that, when the relay 〇N signal is output in the step s1 ,9, and the relay mechanism 2G normally performs the escaping operation, since the relay contact is called, the alternating current flows to the main supply circuit 81, as in the foregoing case. The binary signal is output as a relay opening and closing operation determination signal in conjunction with the period of the alternating current, and is output to the main control unit 1A. On the other hand, when an abnormality occurs in the opening and closing operation of the relay mechanism 2, even if the relay (10) signal is output, the relay contact 21 is not closed and the original open state is maintained. Therefore, the alternating current does not flow through the main supply circuit 81. It is a case where the number k of the cycle of the AC power supply is not generated. Thus, for example, in Fig. 5 (&), the binary signal becomes a signal fixed to a high level as described above (on the right side of the lower part of the figure). Hereinafter, this abnormality is referred to as "〇1^ Fault" of the relay contact 21. Therefore, the main control unit 10 acquires the relay opening and closing operation determination signal (step S11 〇) 'determines whether or not the obtained relay opening and closing operation determination signal corresponds to the alternating current period (step Sill) 'when the main control unit 1 spurs the obtained relay The opening/closing operation determination signal 矣 alternating current period corresponds to 踌 (YES in step SU1 ′), and proceeds to step S112 , since the relay contact 21 is turned on according to the relay OFF signal and is closed according to the relay on signal, the main control unit 10 ends. The power saving mode is switched to the normal mode. Thereafter, the main control unit 1 ends this control. On the other hand, when it is determined that the relay opening and closing operation determination signal does not correspond to the alternating current period (NO in step Sill), the routine proceeds to step S113, where it is determined that the relay contact 21 has an OFF failure. The main control unit u advances to step S1U in step S106 and step 24 201010658 _, and the display and operation unit 52 notifies the leakage breaker that this is an abnormality. The specific method for performing this notification is not the case of the temple 1 W &>, for example, by using an LED or a liquid crystal display unit or the like as described above. Specifically, it is possible to report an abnormality in the leakage cut-off function by an LED or the like that is turned on at the time of abnormality, and the liquid crystal display unit notifies the information on the liquid crystal display unit. Moreover, it can also be constructed to generate a warning or U乍 as a sound information. That is, the opening and closing action of the relay 20 is issued.
