Abstract
Disclosed is a bidet water tank capable of controlling hot and cold water, in which hot water as well as cold water can be used as the water used to be used as a wash water.
Bidet water tank capable of adjusting the hot and cold water is disclosed, the tank body for receiving water introduced from the outside, the received water can flow out; Heating means for heating the water contained in the tank body; Cooling means for cooling the water contained in the tank body; And a control unit controlling the heating means and the cooling means such that the temperature of the water contained in the tank body becomes a reference temperature.
According to such a bidet water tank, even if the water used for the wash water of the bidet is a high temperature can be obtained by cooling to an appropriate temperature can be used.
Description
The present invention relates to a bidet water tank capable of adjusting cold and hot water, and more particularly, to a bidet water tank capable of controlling cold and hot water that can be used as cold water as well as cold water to be used as the wash water.
A bidet is a type of sanitary ware that is used to clean the genitals and the anus after stool. A common bidet includes a toilet seat heating function, a hot water washing function, a drying function, and a deodorizing function.
The major countries with active bidet markets are Japan and Korea, and because they are sold to similar regions, bidets with normal functions are being developed.
However, because some countries have very unique environment and house structure, when using an existing bidet, the bidet cannot be used due to the installation environment.
In particular, in the Middle East, it is difficult to use a bidet due to a very dry and high temperature environment.
For example, houses in the Middle East have a water tank on the roof and use the stored water for living, but the temperature of the water discharged into the home piping and toilet due to the high temperature may exceed 40 degrees.
The conventional bidet includes a function of accommodating cold water and heating it to make hot water, and since there is no separate cooling function for cooling water, when the hot water is used as the use water of the bidet, the hot water is discharged as it is and the user may be burned. There is a danger.
The present invention has been made to solve at least some of the problems of the prior art as described above, in one aspect, a bidet water tank capable of adjusting the cold and hot water can be used to cool even when the water used for use as the wash water of the bidet is hot The purpose is to provide.
In another aspect, the present invention provides a bidet water tank capable of adjusting the hot and cold water that can be heated with less power when the temperature of the water used for use as the wash water of the bidet is slightly lower than the appropriate temperature for use as the wash water. For the purpose of
As one aspect for achieving at least some of the above object, the present invention includes a tank body for receiving water introduced from the outside, the water received can flow out; Heating means for heating the water contained in the tank body; Cooling means for cooling the water contained in the tank body; And a control unit for controlling the heating means and the cooling means such that the temperature of the water accommodated in the tank body becomes a reference temperature.
Preferably, the cooling means may include a thermoelectric element for cooling the water contained in the tank body.
More preferably, the cooling means is connected to the thermoelectric element cooling member for heat exchange with the water contained in the tank body; A heat sink for dissipating heat of the thermoelectric element; And a cooling fan configured to assist heat dissipation of the heat sink.
Also preferably, the heating means may include a heater for heating the water contained in the tank body.
Also preferably, the controller may operate the heating means when the temperature of the water contained in the tank body is lower than the reference temperature, and operate the cooling means when the temperature is higher than the reference temperature.
More preferably, the bidet water tank further comprises a temperature sensor for sensing the temperature of the water contained in the tank body, the control unit to control the heating means and the cooling means based on the water temperature detected by the temperature sensor. Can be.
According to one embodiment of the present invention having such a configuration, it is possible to obtain an effect that can be used by cooling to an appropriate temperature even when the water used for the wash water of the bidet is a high temperature.
In addition, according to an embodiment of the present invention, when the temperature of the water used for use as the wash water of the bidet using a low power heating means is slightly lower than the appropriate temperature for use as the wash water, it is optimized to be used by heating with less power It is possible to secure the heating means and to obtain the effect of saving power.
1 is a schematic configuration diagram of a water tank for bidet according to an embodiment of the present invention.
Figure 2 is a flow chart of the operation of the bidet water tank shown in FIG.
The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. Furthermore, the singular forms "a", "an," and "the" include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise.
In this specification, terms such as " comprise ", " comprise ", and " have "mean that there exist features, numbers, steps, operations, elements, parts, And should not be construed to preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, numbers, steps, operations, components, parts, or combinations thereof.
Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
First, with reference to Figure 1 looks at the configuration of the water tank for bidet according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Meanwhile, in another embodiment, the same power source may be used to drive the heating means 120 and the cooling means 130. In this case, the
In addition, the reference temperature is a value that can be set in advance by the user, and may correspond to the temperature of the washing water desired by the user when using the bidet. For example, the reference temperature may be set to about 38 degrees of the human body temperature so that there is no discomfort in using the bidet.
