[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to an in-bathroom television device in which a television is installed in a bathroom.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 As the second living room, the comfort of the bathroom has been improved in recent years, and one of the means is to watch TV while taking a bath. Traditionally, TVs have been stored in a waterproof TV storage box and mounted on the wall of the bathroom. At that time, transparent glass such as inorganic glass or resin glass is installed on the front of the TV storage box so as to correspond to the screen of the TV cathode ray tube, and it is treated so that it will not become cloudy even in hot and humid conditions in the bathroom. It was being done. As the anti-fogging treatment, there are a method using a hygroscopic resin and a method using a heater. The hygroscopic resin is a method of making the solid surface hydrophilic so that it is easily wet with water so that it does not become cloudy, but it has deteriorated over the long term and had to be replaced. Further, the method of using a heater is a method of embedding a nichrome wire inside the glass, but there is a problem in that the view is obstructed when watching television with the nichrome wire.

The TV 1 can be attached to one of the four corners of the bathroom 3, and the wall members 5 adjacent to each other at the corner where the TV 1 is attached are provided with openings 6 respectively. Attachment reinforcements 12 are attached to both sides of each opening 6 so as to line the outer surface of the wall member 5. The attachment reinforcing material 12 is attached with a double-sided adhesive tape.

The television storage box 2 has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped box shape and includes a box body 2 a and a front cover portion 2 b as shown in FIG. Protrusions 4 are provided on both sides of the back of the box body 2a so as to be bent backward. The box body 2a is arranged in a corner portion of the bathroom 3, and the protrusions 4 on both sides are provided with the wall material 5 respectively. It is attached by being fitted into the opening 6 of the. When the protrusion 4 is fitted in the opening 6, fasteners 14 such as screw fasteners are inserted into the attachment reinforcing member 12 through the attachment holes 13 and attached. At this time, each fixing member 12 is attached by inserting three fasteners 14, respectively. Fans 7 are installed in the upper portions of the protrusions 4 on both sides of the box body 2a. A TV stand 15 is provided in the lower part of the box body 2a, the TV 1 is placed on the TV stand 15, and a speaker 16 is provided below the TV stand 15.

A flange 17 is provided at the front end of the box body 2 a so as to project to the outer circumference over the entire circumference, and a mounting screw hole 18 is provided at an appropriate position of the flange 17, and the flange 17 on one side is provided. The hinge half 19a of the hinge member 19 is attached. A tongue piece 20 is provided so as to project further outward from a proper position on the outer periphery of the flange 17, and a mounting hole 21 is provided in the tongue piece 20. The front cover 2b for covering the front of the box body 2a is provided with an opening 22 corresponding to the screen 38 of the television 1, and an anti-fog glass 23 is attached to the opening 22. An adhesive piece 24 is attached to the outer periphery of the opening 22, and the cutout 25 of the adhesive piece 24 is fitted with the peripheral edge of the anti-fog glass 23 to attach the anti-fog glass 23. Adhesion of the periphery of the anti-fog glass 23 When the notch 25 of the piece 24 is fitted and attached, the waterproof packing 39 is attached to both sides of the periphery of the anti-fog glass 23 as shown in FIG. The peripheral edge of the anti-fog glass 23 is pressed by the mounting plate 41 attached to, and the anti-fog glass 23 is waterproofly attached. As shown in FIG. 3, the anti-fog glass 23 has a double-layer glass structure in which a transparent conductive film 23a is sandwiched between two glass plates 23b. Electrodes 42a and 42b are provided at both ends of the transparent conductive film 23a. By energizing the lead wires 43a and 43b connected to the electrodes 42a and 42b, the transparent conductive film 23a is energized and the glass plate 23b. Can be heated to prevent fogging. Since the transparent conductive film 23a is made of a material such as tin oxide and is transparent, it does not interfere with the visibility. An elastic partition wall 27 is interposed between the anti-fog glass 23 and the outer periphery of the screen 38 on the front surface of the television 1. The elastic partition wall 27 is provided in a ring shape so as to cover the entire outer circumference of the screen 38 of the television 1. The elastic partition wall 27 has a cushioning property such as a sponge, and is sandwiched between the anti-fog glass 23 and the front surface of the TV 1 so that they are in close contact with each other, so that foreign matter cannot enter the screen 38 of the TV 1. It A flange 26 is provided on the peripheral edge of the front cover portion 2b, and a hinge half 19a of the hinge member 19 is provided on the flange 26 on one side. This hinge half 19a is attached to the hinge half 19a of the box body 2a. The front cover portion 2b can be opened and closed by attaching a butterfly to the front cover portion 2b. When the front cover portion 2b is closed, the flange 17 and the flange 26 are in close contact with each other, and the elastic partition wall 27 is elastically contacted with the peripheral edge of the screen 38 on the front surface of the television 1. With the front cover portion 2b closed, a fixing tool 28 such as a screw is screwed into the mounting screw hole 18 of the flange 17 from the flange 26 to fix the front cover portion 2b.

Further, in the case of the present embodiment, the TV storage box 2 and the rack unit 30 can be mounted together. A two-stage shelf 31 is formed in the upper portion of the rack unit 30 by recessing, and an opening 32 larger in size than the outer shape of the television storage box 2 is provided in the lower portion of the rack unit 30. The rack unit 30 is arranged at a corner of the bathroom 3, and the TV storage box 2 is inserted into the opening 32 of the rack unit 30 to expose the front cover portion 2b of the TV storage box 2. The edge of the opening 32 of the rack unit 30 is attached to the mounting hole 21 of the tongue piece 20 of the box body 2a by a fastener such as a screw, and the back surface of the shelf portion 31 of the rack unit 30 is also secured by a fastener 33 as a wall material. It is attached to 5. Further, a frame cover 34 is fitted and attached over the entire circumference in the gap between the opening 32 of the rack unit 30 and the TV storage box 2. Reference numeral 35 is a reinforcing member attached to the rack unit 30.

The television device in the bathroom is configured as described above, and the television 1 can be watched while taking a bath. At this time, the temperature in the bathroom 3 is high and the humidity is high, but since it is housed in the TV storage box 2, the TV 1 is not affected by the humidity. When the temperature inside the television storage box 2 exceeds 40 ° C, the fan 7 is automatically driven and exhausted. At this time, the air inside the wall is sucked in from the lower part of the TV storage box 2 and is exhausted into the wall from the upper part.
