DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0008] <Embodiment> The toilet 10 is a siphon type toilet. As shown in Fig. 1, the toilet 10 comprises a toilet bowl 11, a drain trap 12, a peripheral wall 13, and a support wall 14. Below, each component will be described with the positive side of the X axis in Fig. 1 (the front side when the orientation of a person sitting on the toilet 10 in a normal position is used as the reference) as the front side, the negative side of the X axis in Fig. 1 as the rear side, the positive side of the Y axis in Fig. 1 as the upper side, the negative side of the Y axis in Fig. 1 as the lower side, the positive side of the Z axis in Fig. 2 (the right side when the toilet 10 is viewed from the front) as the right side, and the negative side of the Z axis in Fig. 2 (the left side when the toilet 10 is viewed from the front) as the left side.
[0009] As shown in FIG. 1, the toilet bowl 11 includes a rim portion 15, a bowl portion 16, and a recess 17. The rim portion 15 forms the upper periphery of the toilet bowl 11. As shown in FIG. 3, the rim portion 15 is provided with a first water outlet 18 and a second water outlet 19. The first water outlet 18 and the second water outlet 19 discharge flush water to form a counterclockwise swirling flow in a plan view of the toilet bowl 11 seen from above. The flush water discharged from the first water outlet 18 (referred to as first flush water 71) and the flush water discharged from the second water outlet 19 (referred to as second flush water 72) flow forward on the left side of the toilet bowl 11 and flow backward on the right side of the toilet bowl 11. The left side of the toilet bowl 11 corresponds to the first side. The right side of the toilet bowl 11 corresponds to the second side.
[0010] As shown in FIG. 3, the first water outlet 18 is disposed in a region from the rear of the left side of the toilet bowl 11 to the front of the right side in a plan view of the toilet bowl 11 viewed from above. Specifically, the first water outlet 18 is disposed in a center portion in the front-rear direction on the left side of the toilet bowl 11. The first water outlet 18 is disposed in a position overlapping in the left-right direction with a first region 42 described below. In other words, the first water outlet 18 is disposed within a range rearward of the front end of a first region 42 described below of the rim portion 15 and forward of the rear end of the first region 42. The first water outlet 18 opens forward. The first flush water 71 is discharged forward from the first water outlet 18.
[0011] As shown in FIG. 3, the second water outlet 19 is disposed at a position toward the right side of the rear of the toilet bowl 11. The second water outlet 19 opens toward the left. The second flush water 72 is discharged toward the left from the second water outlet 19. The flow rate of the second flush water 72 is slower than the flow rate of the first flush water 71. The amount of second flush water 72 discharged in one flush is less than the amount of first flush water 71. Specifically, the ratio of the amount of first flush water 71 discharged to the amount of second flush water 72 discharged is in the range of 6.5:3.5 to 7.0:3.0.
[0012] As shown in Fig. 3, the rim portion 15 is provided with a collision wall 21. The collision wall 21 is located on the left side of the rear of the toilet bowl 11. The collision wall 21 faces the second water outlet 19. The first flush water 71 and the second flush water 72 that have passed through the rear of the toilet bowl 11 collide with the collision wall 21 and change the flow direction inward (to the front).
[0013] As shown in Figure 3, the front portion 23 of the vertical surface 22 of the rim portion 15 is curved with little change in curvature when viewed from above in a plan view. This allows the first flush water 71 and the second flush water 72 to flow smoothly in the circumferential direction around the toilet bowl 11. The front portion 23 of the vertical surface 22 of the rim portion 15 extends from the front surface of the rim portion 15 to the center in the front-to-rear direction on both the left and right sides. The radius of curvature of the front portion 23 of the vertical surface 22 of the rim portion 15 is greater than the radius of curvature of the rear portion of the vertical surface 22. The radii of curvature of the front portion 23 of the vertical surface 22 of the rim portion 15 are approximately equal.
[0014] 2, the bowl portion 16 extends downward and inward from the lower edge of the vertical surface 22 of the rim portion 15. The bowl portion 16 is inclined at an angle closer to the horizontal than the vertical surface 22 of the rim portion 15.
[0015] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the recess 17 has a standing wall portion 24 and a bottom portion 25. The standing wall portion 24 extends downward from the lower edge of the bowl portion 16. The standing wall portion 24 is inclined at an angle closer to vertical than the bowl portion 16. The height dimension of the front standing wall portion 24 is smaller than the height dimension of the rear standing wall portion 24. The upper edge of the standing wall portion 24 rises toward the rear. The height dimensions of the left and right standing walls are equal (see Figure 2).
[0016] 1, the bottom 25 is inclined at an angle closer to horizontal than the standing wall 24. An inlet 26 to the drain trap portion 12 is formed at the rear of the bottom 25. The inlet 26 opens to the upper side. The inlet 26 is provided in the center of the bottom 25 in the left-right direction.
[0017] As shown in Fig. 1, the drain trap portion 12 extends rearward from the inlet 26. The drain trap portion 12 has a descending passage 27 and an ascending passage 28. The descending passage 27 extends rearward and downward from the inlet 26. The ascending passage 28 extends rearward and upward from the downstream end of the descending passage 27.
[0018] As shown in Fig. 1, accumulated water 29 is stored in the lower part of the recess 17 and in the drain trap portion 12. The upper surface of the accumulated water 29 in the standby state (referred to as the accumulated water surface 31) is determined by the height of the highest point 32 of the lower surface of the drain trap portion 12. When viewed from above, the accumulated water surface 31 has a generally elliptical shape with a larger dimension in the front-to-rear direction, as shown in Fig. 3.
[0019] 3, the pooled water surface 31 is divided into multiple regions by an imaginary vertical line L1, an imaginary horizontal line L2, and two imaginary diagonal lines L3, and the flows of the first flush water 71 and the second flush water 72 will be described. The imaginary vertical line L1, the imaginary horizontal line L2, and the imaginary diagonal lines L3 are parallel to the pooled water surface 31.
[0020] Imaginary vertical line L1 passes through the left-right center of the pooled water surface 31 when viewed from above. Imaginary horizontal line L2 passes through the front-to-back center of the pooled water surface 31 when viewed from above. Imaginary vertical line L1 and imaginary horizontal line L2 are perpendicular to each other. Imaginary diagonal line L3 forms an angle of 45 degrees with imaginary horizontal line L2 and imaginary vertical line L1 when viewed from above. Imaginary diagonal line L3 passes through the intersection (called center point D) of imaginary vertical line L1 and imaginary horizontal line L2.
[0021] As shown in Figure 3, the pooled water surface 31 is divided into four regions by an imaginary diagonal line L3. The four regions are a front region 40, a rear region 41, a first region 42, and a second region 43. The front region 40 is the region in front of the pooled water surface 31. The rear region 41 is the region in the rear of the pooled water surface 31. The first region 42 is the region on the left side of the pooled water surface 31. The second region 43 is the region on the right side of the pooled water surface 31.
[0022] 3, the water surface 31 is divided into eight regions by an imaginary vertical line L1, an imaginary horizontal line L2, and two imaginary diagonal lines L3. The eight regions are obtained by dividing the front region 40, the rear region 41, the first region 42, and the second region 43 into two. The eight regions are a front left region 40A, a front right region 40B, a rear left region 41A, a rear right region 41B, a first front region 42A, a first rear region 42B, a second front region 43A, and a second rear region 43B.
[0023] The front left region 40A is the region on the left side of the front region 40. The front right region 40B is the region on the right side of the front region 40. The rear left region 41A is the region on the left side of the rear region 41. The rear right region 41B is the region on the right side of the rear region 41. The first front region 42A is the region in front of the first region 42. The first rear region 42B is the region on the rear side of the first region 42. The second front region 43A is the region in front of the second region 43. The second rear region 43B is the region on the rear side of the second region 43.
[0024] As shown in Figure 3, the rim portion 15 is divided into four regions by an imaginary diagonal line L3. The four regions are a rim front region 15A, a rim rear region 15B, a rim first region 15C and a rim second region 15D. The rim front region 15A is the region in front of the rim portion 15. The rim rear region 15B is the region in the rear of the rim portion 15. The rim first region 15C is the region on the left side of the rim portion 15. The rim second region 15D is the region on the right side of the rim portion 15. The first water outlet 18 is provided in the rim first region 15C.
[0025] As shown in Fig. 3, the bowl portion 16 is divided into four regions by an imaginary diagonal line L3. The four regions are a bowl portion front region 60, a bowl portion rear region 61, a bowl portion first region 62, and a bowl portion second region 63. The bowl portion front region 60 is the region on the front side of the bowl portion 16. The bowl portion rear region 61 is the region on the rear side of the bowl portion 16. The bowl portion first region 62 is the region on the left side of the bowl portion 16. The bowl portion second region 63 is the region on the right side of the bowl portion 16.
[0026] The flows of the first flush water 71 and the second flush water 72 will be explained. As shown in FIG. 3, the first flush water 71 starts to be discharged from the first water outlet 18. The first flush water 71 is discharged forward from the first water outlet 18. The second flush water 72 starts to be discharged from the second water outlet 19. The second flush water 72 is discharged to the left from the second water outlet 19. The first flush water 71 forms a first water flow 73. The first water flow 73 passes through the basin first region 62, the basin front region 60, and the basin second region 63, reaches the basin rear region 61, and merges with the second flush water 72.
[0027] The second flush water 72 forms a second water flow 75 and a third water flow 76, as shown in Fig. 4. The second water flow 75 flows into the first region 42 of the pooling surface 31. Most of the second water flow 75 flows into the first front region 42A. The third water flow 76 passes through the basin first region 62 and the basin front region 60, and as shown in Fig. 5, loses momentum to the right of the basin front region 60 and flows into the front region 40 of the pooling surface 31. Most of the third water flow 76 flows into the front right region 40B of the pooling surface 31.
[0028] The combined water 74, which is the result of the combination of the first flush water 71 and the second flush water 72, forms a fourth water flow 77 and a fifth water flow 78, as shown in FIG. 5. The fourth water flow 77 reaches the first bowl region 62 from the rear bowl region 61 and flows into the first region 42. Most of the fourth water flow 77 flows into the first front region 42A. The fifth water flow 78 flows inside the first water flow 73 and makes one revolution around the toilet bowl 11. Specifically, the fifth water flow 78 passes from the rear bowl region 61 through the first bowl region 62, the front bowl region 60, and the second bowl region 63, reaches the rear bowl region 61, and reaches the lower side (inside) of the second water outlet 19, as shown in FIG. 6. The flow velocity of the fifth water flow 78 (the flow velocity of the combined water 74) is faster than the flow velocity of the second flush water 72. As shown in FIG. 7, the fifth water flow 78 merges with the second flush water 72 and flows into the first region 42 of the pool surface 31. Most of the fifth water flow 78 flows into the first front region 42A. As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, a part of the fifth water flow 78 branches to form a sixth water flow 78A. The sixth water flow 78A flows into the second region 43. Most of the sixth water flow 78A flows into the second rear region 43B. The amount of the sixth water flow 78A flowing into the second region 43 is less than the amount of the second water flow 75, the fourth water flow 77, and the fifth water flow 78 flowing into the first region 42. However, the flow of the sixth water flow 78A into the second region 43 has the effect of washing away the waste in the recess 17 into the drain trap portion 12.
[0029] As shown in FIG. 7, a large amount of flush water consisting of the second water flow 75, the fourth water flow 77, and the fifth water flow 78 flows vigorously into the recess 17 from the left of the recess 17 diagonally toward the front right. The flush water consisting of the sixth water flow 78A flows vigorously into the recess 17 from the right of the recess 17 diagonally toward the rear left. The large amount of flush water that flows into the recess 17 forms a thick flow 79 along the standing wall 24 of the recess 17, and becomes a vortex flow from the front to the rear of the recess 17. As the first flush water 71 and the second flush water 72 flow into the pooled water surface 31, the water level of the pooled water 29 rises from the pooled water surface 31, and the siphon is activated. The waste in the recess 17 is swept away from the inlet 26 into the drain trap section 12 by the thick flow 79 formed by the large amount of flush water and the siphon action. The water level of the pooled water 29 drops, and when it falls below the lowest point 33 of the upper surface of the drain trap section 12, air enters and the seal is broken. Thereafter, the water level of the pooled water 29 returns to the pooled water surface 31.
[0030] More than half of the discharged water amount of the first flush water 71 from the start of discharge to the start of siphoning forms the fourth water flow 77 and the fifth water flow 78 and flows into the first region 42. The discharged water amount of the first flush water 71 that forms the fourth water flow 77 and the fifth water flow 78 and flows into the first front region 42A is greater than the discharged water amount of the first flush water 71 that flows into each of the other seven regions. More than half of the combined discharged water amount of the first flush water 71 and the second flush water 72 forms the second water flow 75, the fourth water flow 77 and the fifth water flow 78 and flows into the first region 42. The discharged water amount of the first flush water 71 is the smallest among the front region 40, the rear region 41, the first region 42 and the second region 43.
[0031] The operation and effects of the embodiment configured as above will be described.
[0032] The toilet 10 comprises a toilet bowl portion 11 and a drain trap portion 12. The drain trap portion 12 extends rearward from an inlet 26 formed in the toilet bowl portion 11. The toilet bowl portion 11 comprises a rim portion 15, a bowl portion 16, and a recess 17. A first water outlet 18 is provided in the rim portion 15. The first water outlet 18 spouts water to form a swirling flow counterclockwise in a plan view of the toilet bowl portion 11 seen from above. The first water outlet 18 is positioned in the area from the rear part of the left side of the toilet bowl portion 11 to the front part of the right side of the toilet bowl portion 11 in a plan view of the toilet bowl portion 11 seen from above. On the left side of the toilet bowl portion 11, the swirling flow flows forward. When viewed from above in a plan view of the water collection surface 31 of the recess 17, the water collection surface 31 is divided into four areas by an imaginary diagonal line L3, namely, the front area 40, the rear area 41, the first area 42 and the second area 43, and of these, more than half of the amount of first flush water 71 discharged from the first water outlet 18 flows into the first area 42.
[0033] According to this configuration, a large amount of flush water flows into the first region 42 of the water pool surface 31, forming a thick stream in the recess 17. The thick stream of waste is discharged from the recess 17 to the drain trap portion 12. Therefore, the waste discharge performance can be improved.
[0034] The toilet 10 is a siphon toilet. More than half of the amount of first flush water 71 discharged from the first water outlet 18 until the siphon starts flows into the first area 42. With this configuration, waste is discharged from the recess 17 into the drain trap section 12 by the siphon action and the thick flow formed by the large amount of flush water. Therefore, waste discharge performance can be further improved.
[0035] Of the discharged amounts of first flush water 71 flowing into each of the eight regions obtained by dividing the water pool surface 31 by an imaginary vertical line L1, an imaginary horizontal line L2, and two imaginary diagonal lines L3, the discharged amount of first flush water 71 flowing into the first front region 42A is the largest. With this configuration, a large amount of flush water flows into the first front region 42A of the first region 42, and a thick stream is formed in the recess 17. Waste is discharged from the recess 17 into the drain trap section 12 by the thick stream. Therefore, the discharge performance of waste can be further improved.
[0036] The first flush water 71 passes through the rear of the toilet bowl 11 and flows into the first area 42. With this configuration, waste material can be prevented from remaining at the rear of the toilet bowl 11.
[0037] Of the amounts of first flush water 71 flowing into the front region 40, the rear region 41, the first region 42, and the second region 43, the amount of first flush water 71 flowing into the front region 40 is the smallest. With this configuration, most of the first flush water 71 passes through the front part of the toilet bowl 11, so that waste can be prevented from remaining in the front part of the toilet bowl 11.
[0038] Second flush water 72 merges with first flush water 71 and reaches the inside of second water outlet 19. The inside of second water outlet 19 is located closer to center point D of second water outlet 19 in a plan view of toilet bowl 11 seen from above. With this configuration, second flush water 72 makes one full circle around toilet bowl 11, thereby preventing waste from remaining in toilet bowl 11.
[0039] The combined water 74 of the first flush water 71 and the second flush water 72 makes one full circle around the toilet bowl 11. With this configuration, waste matter remaining in the toilet bowl 11 can be suppressed.
[0040] The flow velocity of the combined water 74 is faster than the flow velocity of the second flush water 72. With this configuration, the second flush water 72 merges with the combined water 74 to form a thick stream, which can clean the toilet bowl 11.
