Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to a sanitary cleaning device for cleaning the private parts of a human body sitting on a toilet seat.

Structure of conventional example and its problems As shown in FIG.
The pump 4 sucks and pressure-feeds water from the water supply hose 3, the solenoid valve 5 opens and closes the waterway, the pump 4 and the water pressure applied by the solenoid valve 5 move the toilet seat 1 to the approximate center and sit on the toilet seat 1. A cleaning means consisting of a nozzle 6 etc. that discharges cleansing water to the private parts of the human body, a drying means 8 that houses a heater and a fan and blows hot air from an opening 7 to the private parts of the human body wet with the cleansing water, although the internal details are omitted. A biasing means 1, which is located on the side 9 of 2 and includes a circuit, a switch, etc., biases the cleaning means and the drying means.
It stores 0 etc. FIG. 2 shows the state of use of the sanitary cleaning device, where 11 is an arrow indicating the front direction of the center line of the toilet seat 1, 12 is a human body sitting on the toilet seat 1,
13 is located on the upper part of the biasing means 10;
It is an operation display means that gives an operation instruction, for example, when the part that is instructed as "cleaning" is pressed, the urging means 10 is activated.
A cleaning switch (not shown) inside is turned on, and the pump 4 and solenoid valve 5 are energized to perform cleaning. Further, an arrow 14 is an arrow indicating the normal direction of the operation display means 13, and in this conventional example, the toilet seat 1
Facial direction 1 of the human body 12 when sitting straight on
This is the most common configuration. In this configuration, the main body side part 9 is located at the rear side of the human body 12 so as not to interfere with the sitting movement of the human body 12, and there is no problem with sitting comfort, but as shown in FIG. Since the normal viewing direction of the human body 13 does not match the line of sight direction of the human body 12 when sitting on the toilet seat 1 and facing the direction of the operation display means 13, the configuration is extremely difficult to see and understand. This is because the structure focuses on ease of understanding when displaying this device or when it is necessary to operate it from the front, for example to clean the nozzle, and when actually using it. However, this method has the problem of causing many inconveniences and increasing the number of erroneous operations.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 3, the main body side part 9 is extended so as to be located in front of the human body 12,
A configuration in which the normal viewing direction 14 of 3 is the same as the facial direction 11 of the human body 12 has been considered, but although the display is the easiest to read, it feels very narrow during use, and especially for men, the legs of the human body 12 tend to be spread apart. Even though the natural posture is to sit bent over, the legs are restrained by coming into contact with the body side 9 as shown in the figure, forcing an unnatural posture, and especially in winter, the contact portion It felt cold and uncomfortable, and it was difficult to use.

Moreover, when displaying or operating from the front, a problem occurred in that the display was completely reversed.

Purpose of the invention The present invention solves such conventional problems,
To provide a sanitary cleaning device that allows a human body to sit on a toilet seat without any hindrance and allows the user to naturally read instructions on an operation display means.

Structure of the Invention In order to achieve this object, the present invention provides an operation display means in which the angle formed between the normal viewing direction of the display and the direction of the human face when sitting straight on the toilet seat is changed from a substantially right angle to an obtuse angle. be.

With this configuration, the normal viewing direction of the operation display means matches the line of sight of the human body when sitting on the toilet seat and faces the direction of the operation display means, making it easier to see.
This has the effect of reducing erroneous operations, eliminating the need to extend the side portion of the main body forward to make the operation display means easier to see, and eliminating the narrowness during use.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5.

In FIG. 4, the front view direction 14 of the operation display means 13 and the human face direction 1 when sitting straight on the toilet seat are shown.
The angle α formed by 1 is approximately a right angle, and the side portion 13 of the main body is slightly extended forward so that the line of sight and the normal viewing direction of the display are more in line with each other, making it easier to see. Since the amount of extension at this time is sufficient to be just to the side of the human body 12, the extended portion will not come into contact with the legs of the human body, and therefore it will not be difficult to sit down.

In FIG. 5, since the angle α formed by the front view direction 14 of the operation display means 13 and the face direction 11 of the human body 12 when sitting straight on the toilet seat 1 is configured to be an obtuse angle, the main body legs 13 are Even if it is installed at the rear, the line of sight and the normal viewing direction of the display match, making it easier to see. Therefore, although it is necessary to turn the head more than in the configuration shown in FIG. 4, the comfort of sitting is even better.

Effects of the Invention As described above, in the sanitary cleaning device of the present invention, the angle formed between the front view direction of the display located on the side of the main body and the direction of the human face when sitting straight on the toilet seat is configured from a substantially right angle to an obtuse angle. Since the operation display means is provided, even if the side part of the main body is placed from almost directly to the rear so that the side part of the main body does not come into contact with the legs of a person sitting on the toilet seat, the front view direction of the operation display means and the toilet seat can be easily adjusted. The direction of the human body's line of sight when the person is seated and turns his/her face in the direction of the operation/display means substantially matches, so the human body can naturally read instructions from the operation/display means, eliminating erroneous operations due to erroneous recognition. Conversely, due to the structure of this operation display means, instructions can be easily recognized from the side rear part without the need for the side part of the main body to protrude to the side of the human body, so it does not get in the way when a person sits on the toilet seat. Furthermore, when displaying this device or cleaning the nozzle, for example, you can use the cleaning means to face the front of the toilet seat (opposite to the direction of the human face when sitting straight on the toilet seat) without sitting on the toilet seat. Even when it is necessary to energize the device, the operation display means is easy to see, easy to understand, and does not feel strange.
