Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Application Field The present invention relates to a washer that is installed and used in the hand washing section of the upper lid of the water storage tank of a water tank type flush toilet.

Conventional Technology In the past, two types of in-tank cleaners have been proposed for the water storage tank of a flush toilet: one is to be immersed in the water in the tank, and the other is to be installed in the hand washing section of the water tank. There is.

Problems that the invention aims to solve: However, the type of water storage tank that is used by being immersed in water is complicated to handle because the top cover of the heavy water storage tank must be opened and closed each time it is used or replaced. If the usage interval is long, the aromatic cleaning agent will be immersed in water and elute, resulting in a high concentration.In the opposite case, the concentration will be low, and the fluctuation in the elution concentration will be too large and exceed the practical level, and the water storage tank There were drawbacks such as the aroma not being fully developed because the product was immersed in the liquid. In addition, with the type that is installed in the hand washing section of the water storage tank, there is no need to open and close the heavy top lid of the water storage tank, but the concentration of water that accumulates at the top of the aromatic cleaner can become high if the interval between water storage and use is long. In some cases, the concentration is low and the elution concentration fluctuates too much, and cleaning agents are generally mixed with chemicals such as fragrances and deodorants.
Diffusion of such chemicals is inhibited by the above-mentioned retained water, resulting in drawbacks such as the inability to fully exhibit aromatic, deodorizing, and other functions.

The present invention has been made with the aim of eliminating such conventional drawbacks.

Means for Solving the Problems The present invention is a type of automatic cleaning in which each time water is sprayed from a water tap, the water is brought into contact with a solid cleaning agent and the cleaning agent is eluted into the water. The washer includes a container body having a water guiding part and an aroma cleaning container housed in the container body, and as a means for tilting the aroma cleaning container itself with respect to the water guiding direction, the interior of the container body is The present invention relates to a cleaning device characterized in that it is provided with either a detachable support member or a support member having a ball joint.

Embodiments The present invention will be described below based on illustrated embodiments.

FIG. 1 shows a first embodiment of the present invention, in which a cleaning device body 1 has a water inlet 2 on the top surface which also serves as a ventilation section consisting of a large number of parallel slits, and a bottom section. It is open except for the crosspiece 3. Further, on the periphery of the lower surface of the bottom, foot portions 4 are provided at a plurality of locations, for example, at three locations at 120° intervals, one of the foot portions 4' is equipped with a suction cup 41, and the effective length of this foot portion 4' is is equal to the length of the other leg 4.

A removable support member 7 is mounted on the crosspiece 3 inside the container body 1.
is installed.

The support member 7 has a shape as shown in FIG.
In the annular base 10, one of the equally spaced support parts 72, 72, 72' that is rotatably fitted to the crosspiece 3 and protrudes upward from the upper end of the base 10. 72' is tall, and the other two supports 72, 72 are short.

A container 6 filled with a solid aromatic cleaning agent 5 and whose upper end opening is closed with a water-resistant water-permeable material 8 is installed on a crosspiece 3 in the container 1 via a support member 7.

The container 6 has a flange 61 at the upper end, and is supported by the flange 61 on the support parts 72, 72, 72' of the support member 7, and the difference in height between the support parts 72, 72, 72' is Based on this, the container 6 has a water guide section (water inlet 2).
The slope is given to . The inclination angle is 5~45°,
In particular, an angle of about 10 to 30 degrees is appropriate. If it is desired to change the direction of inclination, the support member 7 may be rotated by a predetermined angle on the crosspiece 3 by manual operation in a direction around the central axis.

FIG. 3 is a longitudinal cross-sectional view showing still another example of implementing the present invention, in which the container 6 is rotatably supported on the support portion 7 at the ball joint portion 71 at the center of the bottom thereof. It is characterized by the fact that it is According to this method, tilting in any direction can be obtained by tilting the container 6 using the ball joint portion 71 as a fulcrum. According to this method, it is possible to obtain tilting movement in all directions of 360 degrees, but the direction of the tilting movement can be arbitrary, such as two directions like the seesaw method, or four directions such as front and back, left and right.
Other chemicals such as bactericides, insecticides, insect repellents, pest repellents, fragrances, deodorants, and deodorants can be added to the cleaning agent 5.

The cleaning device of the present invention is installed and used, for example, in a state where the container 6 and the cleaning agent 5 filled inside are inclined at approximately the center of the upper surface of the hand washing section of the water storage tank. When a predetermined amount of water is discharged from the water discharge tap by operation, the discharged water flows downward from the water inlet 2 on the top of the container 1, passes through the water-resistant water-conducting material 8, and enters the container 6. The liquid enters the container 6 while contacting the solid cleaning agent 5 and eluting it, and finally the entire amount flows into the water storage tank through the opening at the bottom of the container 1, and is then eluted. A predetermined amount of cleaning agent can be supplied into the water storage tank. Furthermore, since the upper surface of the container 6 and the cleaning agent 5 filled inside the container 6 is sloped, the water in the container 6 is guided by the slope and is discharged from the lower end, so that a very small amount of water remains at the lower end. Only water 9 remains. Therefore, according to the present invention, the elution concentration of the cleaning agent 5 is not affected by the accumulated water, and a fixed amount of the cleaning agent can be supplied into the water storage tank each time water is discharged. Furthermore, since the surface of the cleaning agent 5 is not covered with accumulated water, chemicals such as aromatic components and deodorizing components added to the cleaning agent 5 can be diffused well, improving functions such as aromaticity and deodorizing properties. can be fully demonstrated. Furthermore, if the direction of inclination of the container 6 is fixed in one direction, if there is an inclination on the installation surface, the inclinations may cancel each other out and the container 6 may become substantially horizontal. In the present invention, the direction of the inclination of the container 6 can be changed as appropriate, so if the container 6 becomes horizontal due to the offset of the inclination, the direction of the inclination of the container 6 can be changed as it is in the installed state. By changing the angle, the container 6 can be easily given a predetermined slope. In addition, the water passage port 2 can be provided with an opening adjustment mechanism for the purpose of controlling the amount of volatilization of aromatic components, deodorizing components, and the like.

Effects Since the cleaning device of this invention is installed in the hand washing section of the water storage tank, it is extremely easy to use and handle, and the inclination of the container improves the non-uniformity of elution concentration. Not only is this possible, but it also eliminates the problem of poor volatilization, and has the advantage of providing stable cleaning properties, aromatic properties, and deodorizing properties. Furthermore, since the container 6 can always maintain a predetermined inclination, its performance can be stably and reliably exhibited without being affected by the inclination of the installation surface.
