- JP-8 As light fixtures floor toilet stool forward, JP-8 - The 284,232 No. 00 16 paragraph and Figure 1 of Japanese, on the front side of the sleeve portion of the toilet seat box, illuminate the floor of the front near side of the toilet stool It is described that a lighting fixture is provided. Also, in JP-A-2001-65032, paragraphs 0063-0068 and FIGS. 8 and 9, LEDs are provided on shelves provided on the wall of the toilet room and on the lower surface of the remote control to illuminate the feet when using the toilet. This is stated. Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-120448, paragraphs 0054 to 0055 and FIG. 8 describe that LEDs are buried in front and side surfaces of a Western-style toilet bowl, a toilet seat and a toilet lid to emit light.
- the lighting device disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 8-284232 is provided on the sleeve of the toilet seat box, so that the illumination light is emitted forward so as to pass through the side of the Western-style toilet. For this reason, the brightness in front of the Western-style toilet is insufficient. Also, the silhouette of the Western style toilet bowl is reflected on the floor in front of the Western style toilet bowl, so it may be difficult to find when the slippers placed on the floor are on the shadow side of the silette.
- An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art and to provide an illuminated toilet facility capable of efficiently illuminating a floor in front of a Western-style toilet.

At the front end, a floor lighting illuminator that irradiates light to the floor in front of the Western style toilet bowl is provided.
- the illuminator provided on the front edge of the toilet seat or the toilet lid irradiates the floor surface in front of the Western-style toilet bowl with illumination light.
- the present invention is very suitable especially when entering the room without turning on the interior lighting of the entire toilet room at night and using the vehicle under a faint light. When the toilet room is used with such a faint light, it is not dazzling and the cellular activities of the body are not activated by light, so that it is possible to return to bed immediately after stool.
- the light emitting device is provided on the toilet seat or the toilet lid.
- the toilet seat and the toilet lid are usually made of synthetic resin, and can be easily manufactured so as to incorporate the light emitting device.
- the front edge of the toilet lid extends forward from the front edges of the toilet seat and the Western-style toilet bowl, and the floor illumination light emitter is provided at the front edge of the toilet lid. . Since the toilet lid is usually a single plate and has a simpler structure than the toilet seat, even if it is made longer so that the front edge is extended, the manufacturing cost is slightly increased. In addition, when the front edge of the toilet lid is extended, a fingertip can be easily hung on the front edge of a manually operated toilet lid.
- a rear lighting light emitting device that irradiates light backward from the front edge of the toilet lid when the toilet lid is standing may be provided.
- the light radiated rearward from the upper part of the standing toilet lid will cause the vicinity of the handwasher and the back of the Western-style toilet Wall can be illuminated.
- This makes it easier to use a hand basin and achieves the effect of indirect lighting.
- the illuminator for floor illumination does not emit light when the toilet lid is upright, and the illuminator for rear illumination does not emit light when the toilet lid is tilted down, Light will not be directed to the body. Therefore, it is not dazzling and the body's cellular activities are not activated, so that it is possible to return to bed immediately after stool.
- the timing until the toilet lid opens after the human body detection is delayed for a predetermined time.
- the floor surface in front of the Western-style toilet can be illuminated with a light emitter from entering the toilet room and wearing slippers or the like until approaching the Western-style toilet.
- the front edge of the toilet seat extends forward from the upper front edge of the Western-style toilet, and the floor lighting illuminator is provided at the front edge of the toilet seat. I have.
- the toilet seat is provided with a heating heater and the wiring for the heater is provided, so that the wiring for the light emitting device provided at the front edge of the toilet seat can be easily routed.
- FIG. 1a and 1b are perspective views showing the Western-style toilet equipment according to the embodiment.
- FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along line II-II of FIG.
- FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing another embodiment. Preferred embodiments of the invention
- FIGS. La and lb are perspective views showing the Western-style toilet equipment according to the embodiment, in which FIG. La shows the toilet lid closed, and FIG. FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along line II-II of FIG. 1, and FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing another embodiment.

A hand washer 5 is installed at the upper part of the tank power bar 2, and a hand washing spout pipe 6 is provided upright on the upper surface of the back side of the hand washer 5.
- a toilet seat 7 and a toilet lid 8 are attached to the lower part of the front surface of the tank cover 2 so as to be vertically rotatable.
- the toilet lid 8 is of an automatic opening / closing type
- the tank cover 12 is provided with a human body detection sensor and a rotating device for that purpose (both are not shown).
- the front edge of the toilet lid 8 extends forward from the front edge of the toilet seat 7 and the front edge of the upper surface of the Western style toilet 1.
