[0008] Hereinafter, with reference to the drawings, an embodiment for carrying out the invention according to the present disclosure will be described. The toilet liquid supply device described below is for embodying the technical idea of ​​the invention according to the present disclosure, and unless otherwise specified, the invention according to the present disclosure is not limited to the following. In each drawing, the same reference numerals may be attached to members having the same function. In consideration of the explanation or ease of understanding of the main points, the embodiments may be shown separately for convenience, but partial replacement or combination of the configurations shown in different embodiments is possible. In the embodiments described below, the description of matters common to the above will be omitted, and only the differences will be described. In particular, the same action and effect due to the same configuration will not be mentioned in each embodiment. The size and positional relationship of the members shown in each drawing may be exaggerated to clarify the explanation.

[0009] (First embodiment) A toilet medicinal liquid dispenser 101 according to this embodiment will be described with reference to Figs. 1 to 5. Fig. 1 is a schematic perspective view of toilet medicinal liquid dispenser 101. Fig. 2 is a schematic top view showing the inside of main body case 11. Fig. 3 is a schematic top view showing bottom 13 of main body case 11. Fig. 4 is a schematic perspective view of medicinal liquid storage case 42 for storing medicinal liquid packs 51 in which medicinal liquid is sealed, which is disposed in main body case 11. Fig. 5 is a schematic perspective view of drive unit 61 for extracting medicinal liquid from medicinal liquid storage unit 41, which is disposed in main body case 11.

[0010] The toilet chemical liquid dispenser 101 includes a main body case 11, a chemical liquid storage unit 41 that stores the chemical liquid, a first pipe 68, a drive unit 61 having a pump that extracts the chemical liquid from the chemical liquid storage unit 41, a second pipe 69, and a control device that controls the operation of the pump. The pump and control device are disposed inside the drive unit 61. The chemical liquid is discharged from the chemical liquid storage unit 41 through the first pipe 68, the pump, and the second pipe 69 in this order. The control device also controls the pump to operate at predetermined time intervals.

[0011] Body case 11 has a lid 12 and a bottom 13, and has an internal space defined by lid 12 and bottom 13. The internal space accommodates chemical solution storage section 41 that stores a chemical solution, first piping 68, second piping 69, and a drive section 61 that has a pump and a control device that controls the operation of the pump.

[0012] In this embodiment, the shape of the lid 12 is semi-cylindrical. By making the lid 12 semi-cylindrical, the appearance is improved, and since there are few corners, the strength is excellent and cleaning is easy. The shape of the lid 12 is not particularly limited, and it may be another shape, for example, a prismatic shape.

[0013] The cover 12 has a window 21 for visually checking the light 70. Through the window 21, the light 70 for checking operation, which is disposed inside the main body case, can be visually checked.

[0014] The bottom 13 has a through hole 31 through which the second pipe 69 passes, a fitting hole 32 for holding the medicinal liquid housing case 42, a groove 33 for positioning the medicinal liquid housing case 42, and a support part 34 for supporting the drive part 61. The bottom 13 may have a substantially rectangular shape when viewed from above. The arrangement of each member inside the main body case 11 is not particularly limited. For example, the through hole 31 may be provided at any one location or at multiple locations. In this embodiment, the through hole 31 is a perforated part provided near three vertices among the vertices of the substantially rectangular shape of the bottom 13. By providing multiple through holes 31, when the toilet medicinal liquid dispenser 101 is installed in a toilet, the location of the through hole 31 through which the second pipe 69 passes can be appropriately selected according to the positional relationship between the installation location and the toilet. The through hole 31 may be only one through which the second pipe 69 passes.

[0015] The liquid medicine storage section 41 provides a space for storing a liquid medicine pack 51 in which the liquid medicine is sealed, and is defined by the bottom 13 of the main case 11 and a liquid medicine storage case 42 .

[0016] The liquid medicine storage case 42 has an opening 43. By having the opening 43, it becomes easy to check the remaining amount of liquid medicine in the liquid medicine pack 51. In addition, when installing the liquid medicine pack 51, the liquid medicine pack 51 can be put into the liquid medicine storage section 41 through the opening 43. Furthermore, the liquid medicine storage case 42 has a holding section 44 that holds the first pipe 68 connected to the liquid medicine pack 51. By passing the first pipe 68 through the holding section 44 and holding it, the first pipe 68 can be positioned and easily connected to the liquid medicine pack 51. In addition, since the position of the first pipe 68 is fixed, it is possible to avoid problems such as the first pipe 68 being broken or being pinched by other members. In addition, the liquid medicine storage case 42 has a fitting claw 45 for fitting into the fitting hole 16 of the bottom 13 and a protrusion 46 that fits into the groove 17 of the bottom 13. By having these fitting claws 45 and the groove 17, the liquid medicine storage case 42 can be easily fixed to the bottom 13.

[0017] The liquid medicine pack 51 has a connection portion 52. The connection portion 52 connects the liquid medicine pack 51 and a first pipe 68. In this embodiment, the first pipe 68 has a rod-shaped portion 53. The first pipe 68 is connected to the liquid medicine pack 51 by the connection portion 52, and the rod-shaped portion 53 of the first pipe 68 extends from the connection portion 52 toward the inside of the liquid medicine pack 51. The liquid medicine in the liquid medicine pack 51 is delivered from the rod-shaped portion 53 into the first pipe 68.

[0018] The liquid medicine pack 51 is preferably a pouch type. The pouch type liquid medicine pack 51 is lightweight and easily deformed, which makes it easy to place it in the liquid medicine storage section 41. In particular, the liquid medicine pack 51 is preferably a transparent pouch so that the contents can be confirmed.

[0019] The liquid medicine pack 51 holds a liquid medicine therein.

[0020] The chemical solution used in the present invention is not particularly limited as long as it can exert the effects of the present invention. In one embodiment, the chemical solution contains a component commonly used as an antibacterial agent, specifically, a component capable of inhibiting the growth of microorganisms capable of decomposing urea into ammonia. The chemical solution is particularly preferably an acidic solution. Among the microorganisms such as bacteria present in and around the toilet, there are species that promote the decomposition of urea contained in urine and generate ammonia. Since ammonia is a substance that causes the bad odor of the toilet, the inhibition of the growth of such microorganisms is directly linked to the deodorizing effect by suppressing the generation of ammonia.

[0021] The acidity of the chemical solution may be specifically pH 0 to 6.0, preferably pH 0 to 3.0, and more preferably pH 0 to 2.0. The liquid in the toilet trap that has been turned alkaline by the ammonia derived from urea changes calcium ions contained in urine and the like into poorly soluble salts such as calcium carbonate, i.e., urinary stones. However, by using an acidic chemical solution, the liquid in the toilet trap can be kept neutral or acidic, and the formation of urinary stones can be prevented.

[0022] The chemical solution in the above embodiment is preferably used for a urinal.

[0023] In another embodiment, the chemical solution contains a surfactant, an antibacterial component, and a hydrophilizing agent. The chemical solution is not particularly limited as long as it is a mixed solution of components that are commonly used as a surfactant, an antibacterial component, and a hydrophilizing agent.

[0024] Surfactants can mainly contribute to the cleaning effect of the toilet bowl. The mechanism of the cleaning effect is not limited to any particular theory, but may be, for example, that the surfactant adsorbs to dirt in the toilet bowl, penetrates between the dirt and the toilet bowl, thereby reducing the adhesive force of the dirt, and promotes the removal of the dirt from the toilet bowl when a mechanical action is applied to the dirty part. Surfactants that can have such an effect include, but are not limited to, anionic surfactants such as polyoxyethylene alkyl sulfate ester salts and alkylbenzene sulfonate salts, amphoteric surfactants such as fatty acid amidopropyl betaine and alkylamine oxide, and nonionic surfactants such as polyoxyethylene alkyl ethers and glycerin fatty acid esters.

[0025] The antibacterial component may have an effect of inhibiting the growth of microorganisms (e.g., fungi such as mold) mainly in the toilet bowl. The antibacterial component that may have such an effect is not particularly limited, but may be various antibacterial components that can directly or indirectly inactivate microorganisms, for example, chlorine-based antibacterial components such as sodium hypochlorite, cationic surfactants such as benzalkonium chloride, guanidine-based antibacterial components such as chlorhexidine, and halogen-based antibacterial components such as bromocinnamaldehyde.

[0026] The hydrophilizing agent mainly reduces adhesion of dirt to the toilet bowl and can contribute to improving the cleaning properties of the toilet bowl. The mechanism of the improvement in cleaning properties is not limited to any particular theory, but may be, for example, that the hydrophilizing agent improves the wettability of the toilet bowl surface to water, thereby promoting the removal of dirt during flushing. Hydrophilizing agents that can have such an effect include, but are not limited to, water-soluble polymers such as polyvinyl alcohol, solvents such as glycol ether, and the above-mentioned surfactants.

[0027] The chemical solution in the above embodiment is preferably used for a toilet bowl.

[0028] The liquid medicine pack 51 may have a substantially rectangular shape when viewed from above. The orientation of the opening of the liquid medicine pack 51 is preferably at an angle of 30 to 150° with respect to each side of the substantially rectangular shape when viewed from above. In this case, the term "top view" refers to the top view of the liquid medicine pack 51 placed in the liquid medicine storage unit 41, that is, the state shown in FIG. 2. By setting the orientation of the opening, i.e., the orientation of the connection unit 52, at a predetermined angle with respect to each side of the substantially rectangular shape in this manner, it becomes easy to position the liquid medicine intake port of the rod-shaped portion 53 of the first pipe 68 at a corner in the liquid medicine pack 51 (the lower left corner of the liquid medicine pack 51 in FIG. 2). As a result, whether the toilet liquid medicine supply device is placed vertically or horizontally, the liquid medicine intake port of the rod-shaped portion 53 is located below the liquid medicine pack 51 in the direction of gravity, and the liquid medicine can be reliably sucked up even when the liquid medicine is reduced. In the embodiment shown in the figure, the through hole 31 side through which the second pipe 69 passes is placed upright, so that the chemical liquid suction port of the rod-shaped portion 53 faces downward in the direction of gravity.

[0029] The driving unit 61 includes a pump, a control device for operating the pump at predetermined time intervals, and a battery storage unit 67 inside a driving unit case 64 having a lid 62 and a base 63. The pump is disposed inside the base 63, and a first pipe 68 and a second pipe 69 are connected to the pump. The pump draws up the liquid medicine from the liquid medicine pack 51 to which the first pipe 68 is connected, and transports the liquid medicine from the first pipe 68 to the second pipe 69. As a result, the liquid medicine is sent from the second pipe 69 to the toilet. The control device controls the pump to operate at predetermined time intervals. The control device may further include a light 70. A user of the toilet can confirm that the toilet liquid medicine dispenser 101 is operating normally by visually checking the lighting state of the light 70 from the outside through the window 21 of the lid 12 and the window of the lid 62. The control device may be operated by a battery stored in the battery storage unit 67. The light 70 may be turned on by power supplied by the battery.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, the control device may be a control board housed within the drive unit 61. By housing the control board within the drive unit 61, the toilet chemical liquid dispenser 101 can be made smaller overall.

[0031] The predetermined time may be set in the range of 1 to 12 hours, for example, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, or 12 hours. The predetermined time may be set preferably in the range of 1 to 6 hours, more preferably in the range of 2 to 5 hours, and further preferably in the range of 2 to 4 hours. In a preferred embodiment, the predetermined time may be 3 hours. In this way, by operating the pump at predetermined time intervals, the time during which the chemical solution remains in the drain trap of the toilet can be extended. In particular, the predetermined time of 3 hours in a preferred embodiment can achieve a more favorable balance between allowing the chemical solution to remain in the drain trap for a long time and the retention time of the battery and the consumption of the chemical solution.

[0032] The pump is not particularly limited, but may be, for example, a tube pump, a diaphragm pump, or a plunger pump, and is particularly preferably a tube pump. Since a tube pump does not require a check valve, it is expected that the structure of the device of the present invention can be simplified and the weight can be reduced.

[0033] In this embodiment, the location where the toilet chemical liquid dispenser 101 is attached is not particularly limited, but for example, it is used by being attached to the wall of a toilet. Also, in this embodiment, the method of attaching the toilet chemical liquid dispenser 101 to the wall is not particularly limited, but for example, it may be attached to the wall by attaching it to the wall with screws or bolts, or it may be attached to the wall by double-sided tape, etc. Attaching it to the wall with double-sided tape, etc. is preferable because it is easy to attach and detach it from the wall.

[0034] Second embodiment The toilet chemical liquid dispenser according to the second embodiment has the same configuration as the first embodiment, except that flush water piping 71 is connected to second piping 69 as shown in Figure 6. That is, the toilet chemical liquid dispenser according to the second embodiment has flush water piping 71 connected to second piping 69.

[0035] As shown in Figure 6, flush water piping 71 is connected to second piping 69 via chemical solution introduction part 72. The connection part between flush water piping 71 and chemical solution introduction part 72 can be fixed by a fixture 76, for example a clip. The chemical solution introduced from second piping 69 is discharged into the toilet bowl from flush water outflow port 74. Providing chemical solution introduction part 72 directly on flush water piping 71, as in this embodiment, improves the ease of attachment of the flush water piping to the toilet bowl compared to when the chemical solution is introduced via a fitting attached to the flush water piping.

[0036] In this embodiment, flush water flows in from a flush water inlet 73 connected to a water supply such as a water pipe, and flows down from a flush water outlet 74 into the toilet bowl. In this embodiment, the chemical solution introduced into the flush water piping 71 can be discharged into the toilet bowl separately from the flush water, i.e., the chemical solution alone. By discharging the chemical solution into the toilet bowl separately from the flush water, a high concentration of the chemical solution can be left in the drain trap of the toilet bowl, which can prevent urinary stone formation and improve deodorizing and odor prevention performance. The chemical solution may also be discharged into the toilet bowl simultaneously with the flush water.

[0037] In this embodiment, flush water piping 71 can be housed and attached above the toilet bowl in a form that cannot be seen from the outside. By attaching flush water piping 71 so that it is not exposed to the outside, the aesthetic appearance of the entire toilet can be maintained.

[0038] Flush water pipe 71 attached to the toilet has an inclined flow path 75. The inclined flow path 75 preferably forms an angle of 30 to 90° with respect to the floor surface on which the toilet is placed (typically with respect to the horizontal). The chemical liquid introduced into flush water pipe 71 from chemical liquid introduction part 72 passes through inclined flow path 75 and flows down into the toilet. Due to the inclination, the chemical liquid can be discharged without stagnation in the flush water pipe, compared to, for example, when the chemical liquid flow path is horizontal to the ground, i.e., when the inclination is 0°.

[0039] Third embodiment 7, the toilet chemical liquid dispenser according to the third embodiment has the same configuration as the first embodiment, except that a first holding member 81 is connected to a second pipe 69. That is, the toilet chemical liquid dispenser according to the third embodiment has a first holding member 81 connected to a second pipe 69.

[0040] As shown in Figures 7 and 9, the first holding member 81 has a toilet mounting portion 82, a pipe holding portion 83, a pipe cover 84, and a toilet abutment portion 86. The toilet mounting portion 82 and the pipe holding portion 83 are connected so that their respective recesses face the same direction. The toilet mounting portion 82 and the toilet abutment portion 86 are connected so that their respective recesses face each other. Furthermore, the pipe holding portion 83 and the pipe cover 84 are connected so that their respective recesses face each other. This allows the second pipe 69 to be securely held by the first holding member 81.

[0041] In this embodiment, the second pipe 69 is connected to the toilet mounting portion 82, and is disposed in an internal space defined by the pipe holding portion 83 and the pipe cover 84. A chemical liquid outlet 85 of the second pipe 69 protrudes from the tip of the first holding member 81.

[0042] 8, in this embodiment, the toilet abutment portion 86 has a substantially rectangular portion on the surface facing the toilet mounting portion 82. The first holding member 81 is mounted on the top of the toilet by abutting the substantially rectangular portion against the toilet. In this case, the chemical liquid is discharged alone from the second piping 69 vertically downward onto the inner wall surface or bottom of the toilet.

[0043] According to this embodiment, even if there is no space above the toilet capable of accommodating the flush water piping, the toilet chemical liquid dispenser of the present invention can be installed in the toilet.

[0044] In the above first to third embodiments, the toilet chemical liquid dispenser of the present invention is preferably used in a urinal.

[0045] (Fourth embodiment) The toilet chemical liquid supplying device of the fourth embodiment has a nozzle 91 connected to a second pipe 69, and has the same configuration as the first embodiment, except that the nozzle 91 is fixed to the inner wall of a tank 201 provided in the toilet 200 of Figure 10A (Figure 10B).

[0046] In this embodiment, the chemical solution passes from the second pipe 69 through the nozzle 91 and is dripped into the water stored in the tank 201. The chemical solution dripped from the nozzle 91 into the tank 201 is diffused into the toilet bowl as the flush water is discharged, thereby improving the deodorizing and odor prevention performance and improving the cleaning performance by reducing the adhesion of dirt to the toilet bowl.

[0047] In this embodiment, the nozzle 91 can be housed and attached in the tank 201 in a form that cannot be seen from the outside. By attaching the nozzle 91 so that it is not exposed to the outside, the aesthetic appearance of the entire toilet can be maintained.

[0048] The manner in which nozzle 91 is fixed to the inner wall of tank 201 is not particularly limited, but it is preferable that nozzle 91 be fixed in a simple manner so that it can be easily attached and removed. For example, nozzle 91 may be fixed to the inner wall with screws or bolts, or may be attached to the inner wall with double-sided tape, or may be attached by hooking onto a part such as an edge inside tank 201.

[0049] In this embodiment, a second holding member 93 having a nozzle 91 and an attachment portion 92 as shown in Fig. 11 may be attached by hooking it onto a portion such as the edge of the tank 201. At this time, the second holding member 93 may be connected to the second pipe 69. There is no particular limitation on the method for attaching the attachment portion 92 and the nozzle 91, and they may be attached by various methods such as screws or bolts, adhesive, glue, double-sided tape, welding, fitting, etc., or a part that is processed and manufactured to have the attachment portion 92 and the nozzle 91 from the beginning may be used.

[0050] In this embodiment, the nozzle 91 is a component having a hollow portion, and is connected to the nozzle 91 by passing the second pipe 69 through the hollow portion. The shape of the hollow portion is not particularly limited as long as it can accommodate the second pipe 69.

[0051] The nozzle 91 is not particularly limited, and may be made of, for example, metal or resin. As the metal, for example, pure metals such as silver, copper, aluminum, iron, titanium, etc., as well as alloys such as stainless steel, bronze, brass, and cupro-nickel may be used. As the resin, polyvinyl chloride, ABS, polyethylene, polypropylene, polyisobutyrylene, polyamide, polyacetal, fluororesin, polyester, silicone, etc. may be used.

[0052] The mounting part 92 is not particularly limited and may be made of, for example, metal or resin, but it is preferable to use a flexible material from the viewpoint of attachment to the rim of the tank 201. As such a material, for example, aluminum is preferable.

[0053] The manner in which the mounting part 92 is attached to the rim or the like inside the tank 201 is not particularly limited, but it is preferable that the mounting part 92 be attached in a simple manner so that it can be easily attached and removed. For example, it may be attached using an adhesive, a pressure sensitive adhesive, or double-sided tape, or it may be attached by simply engaging it with the rim or the like without using an adhesive or the like.

[0054] The shape of the mounting portion 92 is not particularly limited as long as it is a shape that allows easy attachment to the rim or the like inside the tank 201, and may be, for example, a substantially rectangular shape.

[0055] The second piping 69 may be fixed to the mounting part 92. As a means for fixing, a hollow part or a grip part, etc. may be provided on the surface of the mounting part 92 facing the toilet bowl contact surface, or the second piping 69 may be fixed with an adhesive, a glue, a tape, etc. Also, the second piping 69 does not have to be fixed to the mounting part 92.

[0056] Fifth embodiment 12, the toilet chemical liquid dispenser according to the fifth embodiment has the same configuration as the first embodiment, except that a second holding member 93 is connected to a second pipe 69.
