Embodiment Construction

[0033] Embodiments will be described below with reference to the drawings. The same code|symbol is attached|subjected to the same element in each drawing.

[0034] figure 1 (a) is a top view of the toilet device 10 of embodiment.

[0035] The toilet device 10 of the embodiment has a housing 11 and a toilet seat 15 . The toilet seat 15 has a toilet seat body 16 and a pair of shaft portions (rotation shaft portions) 17 provided near both left and right ends in the width direction on the rear end portion of the toilet seat body 16 .

[0036] The shaft part 17 of the toilet seat 15 is inserted into the opening mentioned later formed in the housing 11, and the toilet seat 15 is rotatably attached to the housing 11 using the shaft part 17 as a fulcrum. In the toilet apparatus 10 of embodiment, the part which becomes the fulcrum of the rotation of the toilet seat 15 is also called a hinge part.

[0037] figure 1 (b) is a part provided with one of a pair of hinge parts ( figure ...

Abstract

The present invention provides a toilet device in which a seat detection unit is provided on a hinge portion for rotating a toilet seat, and the load generated by the front-back movement of the toilet seat does not affect the load detection in the vertical direction. Specifically, the toilet device includes a toilet seat, an opening is provided on either one of the casing and the toilet seat, and a shaft portion inserted into the opening is provided on the other, and the shaft portion can be brought into contact with the opening by moving the toilet seat in the front-back direction. The lifting body bears the load and generates strain from the toilet seat through the shaft; the seating detection unit is arranged on the lifting body and has a strain gauge for detecting the strain of the lifting body; and the force release unit connects the shaft with the opening In the abutting state, the force applied to the opening from the shaft in the horizontal direction is released so as not to shift downward in the vertical direction.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to toilet installations. Background technique [0002] Currently, there is a toilet device equipped with a seating detection function using a micro switch. In such a configuration using a micro switch, there is room for improvement in the following quality matters, that is, the sinking of the toilet seat when sitting down makes the user feel uncomfortable, or the toilet seat makes a clicking sound although the volume is low. Click sound. [0003] Therefore, the use of strain gauges can be considered for seat detection. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a configuration in which strain gauges are attached to the back surface of the toilet seat, the hinge portion, and the like. Moreover, patent document 2 discloses the structure which provided the load detection means which consists of strain gauges in a toilet seat.
