いる。DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS Examples of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. 1 is a toilet seat, 2 is a low tank, 3 is a main body case, 4 is a toilet seat, and 5 is a toilet lid. A seat switch 6 is turned on when the user sits on the toilet seat 4 and turned off when the user stands up, and is used as a means for detecting whether the user is sitting on the toilet seat or not. The hot water storage tank 7 is composed of a can body 8 and a lid 9 that are airtightly fixed. An electric heater serving as a heating section 10, a water inlet pipe 11, and a hot water outlet pipe 12 are airtightly fixed to the lid 9.

る。 Further, a temperature sensor 13 for detecting the temperature of stored hot water is attached to the side surface of the can body 8. Temperature sensor 1
The signal from 3 enters the control means 14 which performs temperature control, and controls the hot water storage temperature to the set temperature.
本実施例において動作を説明すれば、給水源
（図示せず）より給水路１５を通つて供給される
加圧水は給水バルブ１６を開けることにより貯湯
槽７内に流入し、貯湯された湯は押し上げられな
がら、出湯管１２より出湯路１７を経てノズル１
８に至り使用者の被洗浄部に噴出する。 To explain the operation in this embodiment, pressurized water supplied from a water supply source (not shown) through the water supply channel 15 flows into the hot water storage tank 7 by opening the water supply valve 16, and the stored hot water is pushed up. While the hot water is flowing, the nozzle 1 passes from the hot water tap 12 through the hot water tap path 17.
8 and ejects onto the user's part to be cleaned.
さらに制御手段１４の機能につき説明する。使
用者が着座していない状態すなわち座スイツチ６
がOFF状態では、設定温度は第１の設定温度T1
が選択され、通常使用される最低温度（例えば36
℃）程度に保持される。そして使用者が着座する
と座スイツチ６がONし、設定温度は第２の設定
温度T2が選択される。第２の設定温度T2は温度
調節操作部１９により、使用者が選択し、貯湯槽
７の湯はこの設定温度T2になるまで加熱される。 Further, the function of the control means 14 will be explained. State where the user is not seated, that is, the seat switch 6
is OFF, the set temperature is the first set temperature T 1
is selected and typically used at the lowest temperature (e.g. 36
℃). When the user is seated, the seat switch 6 is turned on, and the second set temperature T2 is selected as the set temperature. The second set temperature T2 is selected by the user using the temperature adjustment operation section 19, and the hot water in the hot water storage tank 7 is heated until it reaches this set temperature T2 .
使用者にとつて、設定温度T2に至るまでの時
間は使用感上大きな問題となる。そこでこのよう
な衛生洗浄装置の標準的な例でこの待ち時間を評
価してみる。タンク容量1.0、ヒータ容量
0.85KW、加熱温度36℃→40℃の場合を考えれ
ば、待ち時間は19.7秒であり、本実施例による衛
生洗浄装置の使用者は、出湯開始の少し前に温度
調節操作部１９を自分の好みの温度に調節すれば
良いことになる。 For the user, the time it takes to reach the set temperature T2 is a big problem in terms of usability. Therefore, let's evaluate this waiting time using a standard example of such a sanitary cleaning device. Tank capacity 1.0, heater capacity
Considering the case of 0.85KW and a heating temperature of 36°C → 40°C, the waiting time is 19.7 seconds, and the user of the sanitary cleaning device according to this embodiment manually operates the temperature control operation part 19 shortly before starting hot water dispensing. All you have to do is adjust the temperature to your liking.
本発明による第２の実施例は、先の実施例にお
いて、温度操作部１９の調節の忘れを防止したも
ので、これを第３図で説明する。この実施例にお
いては、座スイツチ６がONし、第２の設定温度
T2が選択されると温度操作部１９ａの表示ラン
プ２０が点滅して、温度操作部１９ａを調節する
ように使用者に知らせるとともに、あらかじめ標
準温度（例えば40℃）が無調節時の値として登録
されている。したがつて通常使用時には従来の衛
生洗浄装置と全く同様に使用することができる。 A second embodiment of the present invention prevents forgetting to adjust the temperature control section 19 in the previous embodiment, and this will be explained with reference to FIG. In this embodiment, the seat switch 6 is turned on and the second set temperature is set.
When T 2 is selected, the display lamp 20 of the temperature control unit 19a flashes to notify the user to adjust the temperature control unit 19a, and also indicates that the standard temperature (for example, 40°C) is set as the value when no adjustment is made. Registered. Therefore, during normal use, it can be used in exactly the same way as a conventional sanitary cleaning device.
発明の効果
以上説明したように、本発明による衛生洗浄装
置によれば次の効果が得られる。Effects of the Invention As explained above, the sanitary cleaning device according to the present invention provides the following effects.
(1) 貯湯槽の湯温を使用者が便座に座つているか
否かによつて２段階に制御することにより、使
用者が湯温を選択することが可能となり、使い
勝手が大幅に向上する。(1) By controlling the water temperature in the hot water tank in two stages depending on whether or not the user is sitting on the toilet seat, the user can select the water temperature, greatly improving usability.
(2) 湯温は比較的低い温度に予め設定可能のため
不使用時の貯湯槽からの熱放散が少く省エネル
ギーとなる。さらに湯温調節不要の人には余計
な操作は不要となるので使い勝手が向上する。(2) Since the hot water temperature can be preset to a relatively low temperature, less heat is dissipated from the hot water storage tank when it is not in use, resulting in energy savings. Furthermore, for those who do not need to adjust the water temperature, there is no need for extra operations, which improves usability.
(3) 湯温を変更するか否か、使用者に報知する手
段があるため、湯温を変更したい人は忘れずに
湯温の選択操作を行なうことができる。(3) Since there is a means to notify the user whether or not to change the water temperature, those who wish to change the water temperature can remember to select the water temperature.
