Description

Description: FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a rotatable toilet unit.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a rotary toilet unit of this type is disclosed in, for example, Japanese Patent Publication No.
As shown in JP-A-29359, the structure was as shown in FIG.

That is, the toilet 1 rotates about the rotating shaft 2 as a fulcrum. Toilet bowl 1
A toilet seat 4 is attached to the side of the excretion port 3 so that it can be opened and closed.
Reference numeral 5 is a cleaning nozzle, and 6 is an operation lever. Reference numeral 7 denotes a drain trap, and the waste is discharged outside the device through the drain trap and the drain pipe 8. 9 is a door.

In the above-mentioned configuration, when using for stool or for women's urination, rotate the toilet bowl 1 and toilet seat 4 to the horizontal position,
Sit on the toilet seat and excrete. Next, in the case of men's urine, the toilet bowl 1 is placed in a horizontal position and the toilet seat 4 is erected vertically so that urine is discharged so that it does not reach the toilet seat 4.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in the above-mentioned configuration, when a man takes a small dose, the toilet seat 4 is vertically erected to urinate toward the excretion opening 3. It is difficult to discharge urine to the excretory opening 3 because the opening 3 is located at a low position and is opened parallel to the floor. as a result,
There were problems such as urine being caught on the toilet bowl 1 and the toilet seat 4, and the floor surface being soiled with urine.

The present invention solves such a conventional problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide a toilet bowl that can be easily used by men while maintaining a space-saving configuration like a conventional rotary toilet unit.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above problems, a rotary toilet unit according to the present invention comprises a rotating shaft, a sitting toilet that is vertically rotatable around the rotating shaft, and a lower portion of the sitting toilet. And a male toilet bowl that is vertically rotatable about the rotation axis, and the sitting toilet bowl and the male toilet bowl are independently movable at arbitrary angles.

Operation According to the present invention, when used for stools and female urinals, both the stool toilet bowl and the male urinal bowl are rotated to the horizontal position, and the stool toilet is used for excretion. In addition, in the case of men's urinals, the men's urinals are laid horizontally and the seated urinals are placed vertically.
It is designed to urinate toward a men's toilet bowl.

Example An example of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

In FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, 10 is a stool toilet having an excretion opening 11, and the upper surface of the stool toilet 10 on the excretion opening 11 side is a seat 12 for sitting. A water supply pipe A13 that supplies water for flushing excrement in the stool toilet 10 during excretion or after excretion is supplied to the back side of the toilet seat 12, and water for flushing urine during small use is supplied to the back side of the stool toilet 10. The water supply pipe B14 is attached.

15 is a toilet bowl for men, and the excretion port of the toilet bowl 15 for men 16
There are 10 stools in the stool, and 10 stools and a toilet bowl for men.
It overlaps with 15. Inside the male toilet bowl 15, a water supply pipe C17 that supplies water for flushing urine for toilet use
Is attached. Reference numeral 18 is a support portion that supports the stool toilet 10 and the male toilet bowl 15. The support portion 18 has a rotation shaft that serves as a fulcrum when the stool toilet 10 and the male toilet bowl 15 rotate.
19 is attached. Stool toilet 10, male toilet bowl
The reference numeral 15 individually rotates from the vertical direction to the horizontal direction about the rotary shaft 19 as a fulcrum. In addition to manual rotation, this rotation can be automatically rotated using a motor, hydraulic pressure, etc. as a drive source. Reference numeral 20 is a waste receiving portion, and 21 is a waste discharging pipe. Reference numeral 22 is a washing nozzle for injecting washing water for washing the inner surface of the stool toilet 10.

3 to 5 show the usage state, and in FIG.
Is for stool and women's small use. In FIG. 4, 24A is a short-height male user during small use. 24B in FIG.
Indicates a short-duration male user during short-duration use.

In the above-mentioned configuration, when using it as a urinal and a feminine urinal, the stool toilet 10 and the male urinal 15 are laid horizontally, and they are excreted at the excretion opening 11 while sitting on the toilet seat 12 as in the case of the conventional Western-style toilet bowl. Do. That is, it is performed in the posture of the user 23 in FIG. The excrement is sent to the waste receiving portion 20 by flowing water from the water supply pipe A13 during or after excretion, and further discharged through the waste drain pipe 21 to the outside of the device.

Next, for men's urinal use, but in the case of a person with a short height such as a child, stand the stool toilet 10 vertically and the male urinal 15 horizontally to stand in front of the male urinal 15. The excretion mouth
Piss at 16. That is, the operation is performed in the state of the user 24A in FIG. Furthermore, in the case of a tall person such as an adult, the stool toilet 10 is tilted vertically, the male toilet bowl 15 is tilted in an oblique direction to stand in front of the male toilet bowl 15, and urinates toward the excretory opening 16. . That is, the operation is performed by the user 24B shown in FIG. At the time of this small use, in addition to the excretion port, the back side of the stool toilet 10 can also be used as a urine receiving port, so that leakage of urine to the outside can be prevented. Waste water such as urine can be supplied to the water supply pipe B14 and the water supply pipe C17 as described above.
By flowing water from the inside, it is sent to the waste receiving portion 20, and further discharged through the waste discharging pipe 21 to the outside of the device.

When the stool toilet 10 is soiled by excrement, the stool toilet 10 can be stood in a vertical direction and water can be sprayed from the cleaning nozzle 22 to wash the inner surface of the toilet bowl.

Effects of the Invention As described above, according to the rotary toilet unit of the present invention, the following effects can be obtained.

(1) In the case of men's urine, the urine receiving part can be used as the urine receiving part on the backside of the sitting urinal in addition to the excretion part of the male urinal urinal, so that the urine can be widened and the urine can be leaked or scattered to the outside. It is possible to prevent stains on the periphery due to the above.

(2) By changing the rotation angle of the men's toilet bowl,
The height of the excretion opening of the men's toilet bowl becomes a height suitable for the height of the user, which reduces the user's concern and prevents the surroundings from being soiled.

(3) When not using the toilet bowl, stand on the toilet bowl and the men's toilet bowl vertically to spread the floor of the toilet.
It becomes possible to divert it to other areas around the toilet bowl.
