る。(Function) In the toilet air conditioner according to the present invention, the interior of the toilet is
The radiant heating and cooling panels and temperature sensors ensure that the temperature is always maintained at a constant level, eliminating sudden temperature changes. Furthermore, since the radiant heating and cooling panel uses a thermal lightning element that utilizes the Peltier effect as its heat source, the panel thickness can be made thinner, and it can also be incorporated into the toilet wall or door, so the interior of the toilet will not be cramped. Furthermore, there is no need for power such as a motor or compressor or complicated piping, and it is possible to switch between cooling and heating simply by changing the direction of the current. Also,
Since the radiant heating/cooling panel is placed at a height corresponding to the user's face, the user can feel cold or hot air due to heat transfer due to radiation, making it possible to improve the heating/cooling effect.

Therefore, when a user approaches a radiant heating/cooling panel, heat is transferred directly between the panel surface and the face without passing through the air, and cold or hot air is felt from the panel and touches the panel surface. I can feel the coldness and heat. Therefore, the heating and cooling effect experienced by the person using the toilet is improved compared to simply keeping the temperature inside the toilet constant.
