Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The disclosed embodiments relate to a toilet apparatus. [Background technology]

[0002] BACKGROUND ART Conventionally, a toilet seat device is known that includes an atomization device and a mist transport means, and blows mist from an outlet inside the toilet bowl (see Patent Document 1). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Patent No. 4333339 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] The conventional configuration described above requires a dedicated duct for deodorization, resulting in a larger toilet apparatus. Prior Art Document 1 also discloses using a fan for mist blowing that is also used as a drying fan and a heating fan, but this requires placing the mist generator and heater in the same duct, potentially reducing safety. Therefore, there has been a demand for a toilet apparatus that can deodorize with a smaller, safer configuration.

[0005] One aspect of the embodiment has been made in view of the above, and aims to provide a toilet device that is capable of deodorizing with a smaller, safer configuration. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] A toilet device according to one aspect of the embodiment is a toilet device that is placed on a toilet body having a toilet bowl, and is equipped with a local drying means that dries local areas of the human body, and a spray means that is formed separately from the local drying means and ejects mist onto the surface of the toilet bowl, and the local drying means is driven in conjunction with the spraying of mist from the spray means, thereby performing deodorizing control that dissolves odors in the toilet room or toilet bowl into the moisture in the toilet bowl.

[0007] By using the spray means and the flow path and fan of the local drying means to dissolve the odor in the moisture in the toilet bowl, it is possible to eliminate odors without a dedicated unit, thereby providing a toilet device that can deodorize with a smaller, safer configuration.

[0008] In the deodorizing control, the driving time of the spraying means is shorter than the driving time of the local drying means.

[0009] The amount of mist discharged from the spraying means is reduced, which contributes to water conservation. In addition, the spraying means can deodorize with minimal operation, eliminating the need for a dedicated unit and extending the life of the mist motor.

[0010] Moreover, when the deodorization control is performed within a first predetermined time from the previous driving of the spraying means, only the local drying means is driven.

[0011] If the entire toilet bowl has been wetted immediately before, deodorization can be performed with minimal spray operation by skipping the operation of the spray means, thereby improving water conservation.In addition, the configuration does not require a dedicated unit, which extends the life of the mist motor.

[0012] Furthermore, in the deodorization control, when a second predetermined time has elapsed since the previous driving of the spraying means, the spraying means is driven or the toilet body is cleaned.

[0013] The toilet device can reset the odorous components dissolved in the water in the toilet bowl by flushing the toilet body. Also, by dissolving the odorous components in the reset water in the toilet bowl, the efficiency of dissolving the odorous components can be increased.

[0014] The toilet is also provided with a seating detection means for detecting when a person is seated on the toilet seat, and in the deodorizing control, when the seating detection means detects that a person is seated, the local drying means is driven at a lower exhaust volume than when drying the local areas, or is stopped.

[0015] The toilet device can reduce noise during deodorization and discomfort to users by not deodorizing when the toilet lid is open or when there is waste in the toilet bowl, or by running it at a low airflow rate. Furthermore, when the toilet lid is open, the clean air after deodorization is more easily diffused and circulated throughout the toilet, so it is sufficient to run it at a slower speed.

[0016] The toilet is also provided with a human body detection means for detecting the presence of a person in the toilet room, and when the human body detection means detects a person during the deodorization control, the local drying means operates at a lower exhaust volume than during local drying or stops.

[0017] When the toilet device detects a person in the toilet room, it operates the fan at a low speed or stops it, thereby suppressing noise during deodorization in situations where the toilet lid is expected to be opened, thereby reducing discomfort to the user.

[0018] The device also includes a toilet lid opening / closing detection means for detecting the opening and closing of the toilet lid, and when the toilet lid opening / closing detection means detects that the toilet lid has been opened during the deodorizing control, the local drying means operates at a lower exhaust volume than during local drying or stops.

[0019] By directly checking whether the toilet lid is open, the toilet device can more reliably suppress noise during deodorization, reducing discomfort to the user. [Effects of the Invention]

[0020] According to one aspect of the embodiment, deodorization can be performed with a smaller and safer configuration. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0022] The toilet device disclosed in the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Note that the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments. It should be noted that the drawings are schematic, and the dimensional relationships and ratios of elements may differ from reality. The dimensional relationships and ratios may differ between the drawings.

[0023] In recent years, there has been a demand for high functionality in toilets, as well as high design (low product height, etc.). It is also necessary to prevent the rise in product prices that accompanies high functionality. To solve these problems, we focused on complementing existing functions with other functions and parts. Specifically, we discovered that by utilizing the gentle breeze drive of an existing warm air fan, the existing mist function, and moisture in the toilet bowl (seal water, mist itself, residual mist water), we could substitute the deodorizing function for the resident odor.

[0024] First Embodiment The toilet device 10 according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to Figures 1 and 2. Figure 1 is a side cross-sectional view of the toilet device 10 according to the first embodiment. Figure 2 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the main parts of the toilet device 10.

[0025] For ease of explanation, the drawings show a three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system including a Z-axis whose positive direction is vertically upward. In the Cartesian coordinate system, the positive X-axis direction is defined as left, and the negative X-axis direction is defined as right. The positive Y-axis direction is defined as forward, and the negative Y-axis direction is defined as backward. The X-axis direction is called the left-right direction, the Y-axis direction is called the front-back direction, and the Z-axis direction is called the up-down direction.

[0026] As shown in Figure 1, the toilet device 10 is placed on a toilet body 1 having a toilet bowl 2. The toilet device 10 includes a casing 11, a toilet seat 12, and a toilet lid 13.

[0027] The toilet body 1 is made of ceramic and comprises a toilet bowl 2, a rim 3, a trap 4, and a skirt 5.

[0028] The toilet bowl 2 receives waste from the user. The rim portion 3 is formed on the upper edge of the toilet bowl 2. The rim portion 3 is formed with a water outlet that discharges flushing water into the toilet bowl 2.

[0029] The trap unit 4 communicates with the bottom of the toilet bowl 2. The trap unit 4 extends from the bottom of the toilet bowl 2 and discharges waste from within the toilet bowl 2. The trap unit 4 is connected to a drain pipe via a drain socket.

[0030] The skirt portion 5 is provided on the outside of the toilet bowl 2. The skirt portion 5 is provided so as to cover the outside of the toilet bowl 2. The skirt portion 5 has an outer wall 6 that forms the exterior of the toilet device 10.

[0031] The casing 11 houses a private parts cleaning means for cleaning the private parts of the human body (such as the buttocks of a user seated on the toilet seat 12), as well as a private parts drying means 14 and a spraying means 18, which will be described later. The private parts cleaning means includes, for example, a nozzle that can be extended to the outside of the casing 11. The private parts cleaning means, private parts drying means 14 and spraying means 18 are driven based on commands from a control device 30 provided in the toilet device 10. The toilet seat 12 and toilet lid 13 are each supported on the casing 11 so that they can be opened and closed.

[0032] 2, for example, the casing 11 is provided inside with a control device 30, a seating detection means 22, a human body detection means 23, and a toilet lid open / close detection means 24, which will be described later. The control device 30 can transmit control signals based on detection signals transmitted from the human body detection means 23, the human body detection means 23, or the toilet lid open / close detection means 24, and control the operation of the local area drying means 14, the spray means 18, and a toilet bowl flushing device 25, which will be described later.

[0033] Next, the dissolution of odors by the toilet device 10 will be described with reference to Figures 3 and 4. Figure 3 is an explanatory diagram of the flow of intake and exhaust air. Figure 4 is a perspective view of the toilet device 10 as seen from the front.

[0034] As shown in Fig. 3, the local drying means 14 has an air intake 15, a hot air fan 16, and an exhaust vent 17. The air intake 15 draws air from inside the toilet room by the hot air fan 16. The air intake from the air intake 15 is exhausted from the exhaust vent 17.

[0035] The local drying means 14 dries the local areas of the human body by blowing warm air forward. The local drying means 14 is also capable of dissolving odors in the toilet room or toilet bowl 2 into the moisture in the toilet bowl 2. The direction of the exhaust air when deodorizing (see arrow B) is downward compared to the direction of the exhaust air when drying the local areas (see arrow D).

[0036] Local drying means 14 exhausts air in the toilet room downward toward the water seal S of toilet body 1, thereby dissolving odors in the toilet room or toilet bowl 2 into the moisture in toilet bowl 2. For example, odorous components are ammonia (NH3) and trimethylamine ((CH3)3N). Note that local drying means 14 is not limited to a configuration in which air is drawn in through dedicated air intake 15, and may also be configured to draw in outside air from gaps in the product.

[0037] The air that has been adsorbed, dissolved, and deodorized by the moisture in the toilet bowl 2 is discharged into the toilet room (see arrow C). With the toilet device 10 configured as described above, it is possible to eliminate the need for a deodorizing cartridge, and the moisture in the toilet bowl can be reset by flushing the toilet during normal use. Here, toilet flushing refers to the operation of expelling waste from the toilet bowl 2 and cleaning the inner surface of the toilet bowl 2. During toilet flushing, flush water is supplied into the toilet bowl 2, and seal water S is collected within the toilet bowl.

[0038] As shown in FIG. 4, the toilet apparatus 10 includes a spraying means 18 formed separately from the local drying means 14 (see FIG. 3).

[0039] Spraying means 18 discharges mist M onto the surface of the toilet bowl 2. Spraying means 18 is equipped with a mist motor for driving spraying means 18. Spraying means 18 turns, for example, sterilized water (containing free chlorine) produced by a sterilization device or tap water into a mist, and discharges mist M from outlet 19 onto the surface of the toilet bowl 2. In other words, spraying means 18 causes mist M of sterilized water to land (adhere) on the toilet bowl 2.

[0040] Local drying means 14 also dissolves odors in mist M discharged from spray means 18 into toilet bowl 2. For example, local drying means 14 exhausts air through air blower damper 20 that covers exhaust port 17 (see FIG. 3). Air blower damper 20 is located to the left of discharge port 19 of spray means 18 and is rotatably supported on front wall 11a of casing 11. Note that a nozzle damper 21 is disposed between discharge port 19 and air blower damper 20, and a nozzle of local drying means 14 is disposed behind nozzle damper 21. Air sent from local drying means 14 is sent from exhaust port 17 into toilet bowl 2 with its direction controlled by air blower damper 20. For example, an electric damper or a damper whose opening angle changes depending on the amount of exhaust air can be used as air blower damper 20.

[0041] The toilet device 10 may be configured to have a ventilation function or a cooling / heating function in addition to the local drying function as a function that also serves as a deodorizing function. When configured to also serve as a ventilation function, a ventilation fan is used to prevent condensation inside the casing 11. The toilet device 10 may also be configured such that an air outlet is provided in the toilet cover 13, and air is blown downward from the toilet cover 13 toward the water seal S.

[0042] Next, specific operations of the toilet apparatus 10 described above will be described with reference to Fig. 5. Fig. 5 is a timing chart showing the control timing of the toilet apparatus 10 according to the first embodiment. Fig. 5(a) shows a timing chart in which the spray means 18 and the local area drying means 14 are driven simultaneously. Fig. 5(b) shows a timing chart in which the spray means 18 is driven prior to the local area drying means 14. Fig. 5(c) shows a timing chart in which the local area drying means 14 is driven prior to the spray means 18.

[0043] As shown in FIG. 5, the local drying means 14 is driven in conjunction with the spraying of mist M from the spraying means 18 to perform deodorizing control, dissolving odors in the toilet room or toilet bowl 2 into the moisture in the toilet bowl 2. For example, as shown in FIG. 5(a), the local drying means 14 may be driven simultaneously with the spraying of mist M from the spraying means 18 to perform deodorizing control. In this way, by overlapping the driving times of the local drying means 14 and the spraying means 18, odors can be dissolved even in the scattered mist M, thereby enhancing the deodorizing effect. Also, as shown in FIG. 5(b), the local drying means 14 may be driven after the spraying of mist M from the spraying means 18 to perform deodorizing control. Also, as shown in FIG. 5(c), the local drying means 14 may be driven prior to the spraying of mist M from the spraying means 18 to perform deodorizing control.

[0044] Note that "driving in conjunction with each other" refers to a mode in which local drying means 14 and spray means 18 start driving at the same time, as well as a mode in which local drying means 14 drives a certain time after spray means 18 drives, and a mode in which spray means 18 drives a certain time after local drying means 14 drives. In other words, "driving in conjunction with each other" refers to a mode in which local drying means 14 and spray means 18 drive together in a series of deodorizing control operations.

[0045] Second Embodiment Next, specific operations of the toilet device 10 according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 6. FIG. 6 is a timing chart showing the control timing of the toilet device 10 according to the second embodiment. FIG. 6(a) shows a timing chart in which the spraying means 18 and the local area drying means 14 are driven simultaneously. FIG. 6(b) shows a timing chart in which the spraying means 18 is driven prior to the local area drying means 14. FIG. 6(c) shows a timing chart in which the local area drying means 14 is driven prior to the spraying means 18. In the following, components common to the above-described embodiments will be assigned the same reference numerals and will not be described again.

[0046] As shown in FIG. 6, in deodorizing control, the drive time T1 of the spraying means 18 is shorter than the drive time T2 of the local drying means 14. For example, as shown in FIG. 6(a), the local drying means 14 may start driving simultaneously with the spraying of mist M from the spraying means 18 to perform deodorizing control. The drive of the spraying means 18 is stopped while the local drying means 14 is driving. Also, as shown in FIG. 6(b), the local drying means 14 may be driven after the spraying means 18 has sprayed mist M to perform deodorizing control. The drive of the spraying means 18 is stopped before the local drying means 14 starts driving. As shown in FIG. 6(c), the local drying means 14 may be driven prior to the spraying of mist M from the spraying means 18 to perform deodorizing control. The drive of the spraying means 18 is stopped while the local drying means 14 is driving.

[0047] Third Embodiment Next, a specific operation of the toilet device 10 according to the third embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 7. Fig. 7 is a timing chart showing the control timing of the toilet device 10 according to the third embodiment.

[0048] If deodorization control is performed within a first predetermined time from the previous activation of spray means 18 (for example, activation of spray means 18 by manual operation by the user), only local drying means 14 is activated. For example, as shown in FIG. 7, time T3 constitutes one cycle of deodorizing operation, and spray means 18 and local drying means 14 start to operate simultaneously. In the next deodorizing operation, if time T4 has elapsed since the previous activation of spray means 18 is within the first predetermined time, activation of spray means 18 is omitted, and only local drying means 14 starts to operate. Note that the first predetermined time is a time that is set in advance.

[0049] <Fourth embodiment> Next, specific operations of the toilet device 10 according to the fourth embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 8. Fig. 8 is a timing chart showing the control timing of the toilet device 10 according to the fourth embodiment. Fig. 8(a) shows a timing chart when the second predetermined time T5 is shorter than one cycle of the deodorizing operation. Fig. 8(b) shows a timing chart when the second predetermined time T5 is longer than one cycle of the deodorizing operation.

[0050] During deodorization control, if a second predetermined time T5 has passed since the previous activation of the spray means 18, activation of the spray means 18 or flushing of the toilet body 1 is performed. For example, as shown in FIG. 8(a), time T3 constitutes one cycle of the deodorization operation, and the spray means 18 and the local area drying means 14 begin activation simultaneously. Alternatively, toilet flushing and activation of the local area drying means 14 begin simultaneously. If the second predetermined time T5 has passed since activation of the spray means 18, the control device 30 activates the local area drying means 14 while also activating the spray means 18 or flushing of the toilet body 1. The flushing of the toilet body 1 is automatically performed by the toilet flushing device 25 under the control of the control device 30. The toilet flushing device 25 is provided, for example, in a water supply tank for the toilet body 1 or a water supply pipe for the toilet body 1.

[0051] 8(b), time T3 constitutes one cycle of the deodorizing operation, and the spray means 18 and the local area drying means 14 begin operating simultaneously. Alternatively, the toilet flush is performed and the local area drying means 14 begins operating simultaneously. When a second predetermined time T5 has elapsed since the spray means 18 was started, the local area drying means 14 begins operating, and the spray means 18 is driven or the toilet body 1 is flushed.

[0052] Fifth Embodiment Next, a specific operation of the toilet device 10 according to the fifth embodiment will be described with reference to Fig. 9. Fig. 9 is a timing chart showing the control timing of the toilet device 10 according to the fifth embodiment.

[0053] The toilet device 10 is equipped with a seating detection means 22 that detects when a person is seated on the toilet seat 12. The seating detection means 22 can be a microwave sensor, a distance sensor (infrared projector sensor), an ultrasonic sensor, a tactile switch, a capacitance switch (touch sensor), or a distortion sensor. During deodorization control, when the seating detection means 22 detects a person sitting, the local drying means 14 is operated at a lower exhaust volume than during local drying or is stopped. For example, as shown in FIG. 9, when the local drying means 14 is operating at the non-detection air volume A1, if the seating detection means 22 detects a person sitting during time T6, the control device 30 operates at the lower air volume A2 than the non-detection air volume or stops the local drying means 14.

[0054] Alternatively, the toilet device 10 is provided with a human body detection means 23 that detects the presence of a person in the toilet room. For example, a pyroelectric sensor, a microwave sensor, an ultrasonic sensor, or a distance sensor (infrared projector sensor) can be used as the human body detection means 23. As in the case where the toilet device 10 is provided with the seating detection means 22, when the human body detection means 23 detects a person during deodorization control, the local area drying means 14 is operated at a lower exhaust volume than during local area drying, or is stopped.

[0055] Alternatively, the toilet device 10 is equipped with a toilet lid open / close detection means 24 that detects the opening and closing of the toilet lid 13. The toilet lid open / close detection means 24 may be, for example, a combination of a Hall IC and a magnet, or a microswitch. As in the case where the toilet device 10 is equipped with the seating detection means 22 described above, when the toilet lid open / close detection means 24 detects that the toilet lid 13 is open during deodorization control, the local area drying means 14 either operates at a lower exhaust volume than during local area drying, or stops.

[0056] As described above, the toilet device 10 according to the embodiment is a toilet device 10 that is placed on a toilet body 1 having a toilet bowl 2, and is equipped with local drying means 14 that dries local areas of the human body, and spraying means 18 that is formed separately from the local drying means 14 and that ejects mist M onto the surface of the toilet bowl 2, and the local drying means 14 is driven in conjunction with the spraying of mist M from the spraying means 18, thereby performing deodorizing control that dissolves odors in the toilet room or toilet bowl 2 into the moisture in the toilet bowl 2.

[0057] By using the spray means 18, the flow path of the local drying means 14, and the fan to dissolve the odor in the moisture in the toilet bowl 2, it is possible to eliminate odors without the need for a dedicated unit. This makes it possible to provide a toilet apparatus 10 that is capable of deodorizing with a smaller, safer configuration.

[0058] In addition, in the deodorization control, the driving time T1 of the spraying means 18 is shorter than the driving time T2 of the local drying means 14.

[0059] Since the amount of mist M discharged from spray means 18 is reduced, water conservation can be improved. Furthermore, since the existing functional unit (spray means 18) is used for deodorization, the functional unit's lifespan must be taken into consideration when driving it. The purpose of spray means 18 is to wet the entire toilet bowl 2. Therefore, by configuring spray means 18 so that its drive time T1 is shorter than the drive time T2 of local drying means 14, spray means 18 can perform deodorization with minimal drive of spray means 18, and the lifespan of the mist motor can be extended without requiring a dedicated unit.

[0060] Furthermore, if deodorization control is performed within the first predetermined time from the previous drive of the spray means 18, only the local drying means 14 is driven.

[0061] If the entire toilet bowl 2 has been wetted immediately before, deodorization can be performed with the minimum amount of spraying by skipping the operation of the spraying means 18, thereby improving water conservation. Also, the configuration does not require a dedicated unit, which extends the life of the mist motor.

[0062] Furthermore, in the deodorization control, if a second predetermined time T5 has elapsed since the previous drive of the spray means 18, the drive of the spray means 18 or the flushing operation of the toilet bowl is carried out.

[0063] The toilet apparatus 10 can reset odorous components dissolved in the water in the toilet bowl 2 by flushing the toilet body 1. Furthermore, by dissolving the odorous components in the water in the reset toilet bowl 2, the efficiency of dissolving the odorous components can be increased.

[0064] The toilet is also provided with a seating detection means 22 for detecting that a person is seated on the toilet seat 12, and when the seating detection means 22 detects that a person is seated during deodorization control, the local drying means 14 is driven at a lower exhaust volume than during local drying or is stopped.

[0065] The toilet device 10 can suppress noise during deodorization and reduce discomfort to the user by not deodorizing or by operating at a low airflow rate when there is waste in the toilet bowl 2, which is assumed to be when the toilet lid 13 is open. Note that when the toilet lid 13 is open, the clean air after deodorization is easily diffused and circulated throughout the toilet room, so it is sufficient to operate the device at a slower speed.

[0066] Also, a human body detection means 23 is provided for detecting the presence of a person in the toilet room, and when the human body detection means 23 detects a person during deodorization control, the local drying means 14 is driven at a lower exhaust volume than during local drying or is stopped.

[0067] When the toilet device 10 detects a person in the toilet room, it operates the fan at low speed or stops it, thereby suppressing noise during deodorization in situations where the toilet lid 13 is expected to be opened, thereby reducing discomfort to the user.

[0068] Also, a toilet lid opening / closing detection means 24 is provided to detect the opening / closing of the toilet lid 13, and when the toilet lid opening / closing detection means 24 detects that the toilet lid 13 is open during deodorization control, the local drying means 14 is driven at a lower exhaust volume than during local drying or is stopped.

[0069] The toilet device 10 can more reliably suppress noise during deodorization by directly confirming whether the toilet lid 13 is open, thereby reducing discomfort to the user.

[0070] Further advantages and modifications will readily occur to those skilled in the art. Therefore, the invention in its broader aspects is not limited to the specific details and representative embodiments shown and described above. Accordingly, various modifications may be made without departing from the spirit or scope of the general inventive concept as defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
