Description

臀部拭き取り装置並びにそれを用いた温水洗浄便座及び温水洗浄便器Toe wiping device, hot water cleaning toilet seat and hot water cleaning toilet using the same
 本発明は、便器周辺の機器に関し、より特定的には、臀部の汚れや水滴を拭き取ることができる装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a device around a toilet bowl, and more particularly to an apparatus capable of wiping away dirt and water droplets on the buttock.
 温水洗浄便器は、温水を臀部に噴射して、臀部を自動的に洗浄することができる。温水洗浄便器を用いれば、腰を上げずに、臀部を洗浄することができるので、高齢者や体が不自由な者などにとっては、非常に有用である。ところが、温水洗浄便器を用いた場合、臀部に水滴が残ってしまう。そのため、腰を上げて、臀部と便座との間に間隙を設け、手に持ったトイレットペーパーで、水滴を拭き取る必要がある。しかし、腰を上げて、臀部と便座との間に間隙を設ける作業は、高齢者や体が不自由な者などにとっては、困難である。 The hot water flush toilet can inject hot water into the buttock and automatically wash the buttock. The use of a warm water flush toilet can clean the buttocks without raising the waist, which is very useful for the elderly and the physically handicapped. However, when a warm water flush toilet is used, water drops remain on the buttocks. Therefore, it is necessary to raise the waist, provide a gap between the buttocks and the toilet seat, and wipe off the water droplets with the toilet paper held in the hand. However, the work of raising the waist and providing a gap between the buttocks and the toilet seat is difficult for an elderly person or a person with a physical disability.
 水滴の拭き取り作業を容易にするための装置として、下記のような装置が提案されている。 The following devices have been proposed as devices for facilitating the water wiping operation.
 特許文献1には、和式トイレで使用する装置であるが、肛門についた水滴を筒状操作杆の先端に取り付けられた花弁型拭取紙で拭き取るための装置が提案されている。 Patent Document 1 proposes an apparatus for use in a Japanese-style toilet, but a device for wiping off water droplets attached to the anus with a petal-type wiping paper attached to the tip of a cylindrical operation rod.
 特許文献2には、洋式トイレで使用する装置が提案されている。特許文献1と同様、特許文献2には、肛門についた水滴を筒状操作杵の先端に取り付けた花弁型拭取紙で拭き取るための装置が提案されている。特許文献2に記載の装置を用いれば、臀部と便座との間にできた狭い空間に、棒状の当該装置を挿入して、臀部に付いた水滴を拭き取ることができる。狭い空間に棒状の当該装置を挿入すれば良いだけであるので、水滴の拭き取り作業が容易となる。
登録実用新案第2546962号公報 登録実用新案第3024055号公報
Patent Document 2 proposes a device for use in a Western-style toilet. Similar to Patent Document 1, Patent Document 2 proposes an apparatus for wiping off water droplets attached to the anus with a petal-type wiping paper attached to the tip of a cylindrical operating rod. If the apparatus of patent document 2 is used, the rod-shaped said apparatus can be inserted in the narrow space formed between the buttocks and the toilet seat, and the water droplet attached to the buttocks can be wiped off. Since it is only necessary to insert the rod-shaped device into a narrow space, the operation of wiping off water droplets becomes easy.
Registered Utility Model No. 2546962 Registered Utility Model No. 3024055
 特許文献1に記載の装置は、和式トイレに用いるものであり、洋式トイレに使うことはできない。無理に、洋式トイレに使ったとしても、臀部を便座から上げなければならず、高齢者や体が不自由な者などにとっては、依然、水滴や汚れの拭き取り作業が困難である。 The device described in Patent Document 1 is used for a Japanese-style toilet and cannot be used for a Western-style toilet. Forcibly, even if it is used for a Western-style toilet, the buttock must be lifted from the toilet seat, and it is still difficult for elderly people and persons with physical disabilities to wipe off water droplets and dirt.
 特許文献2に記載の装置であったとしても、ある程度は、臀部を便座から上げなければならず、やはり、高齢者や体が不自由な者などにとっては困難である。 Even with the device described in Patent Document 2, the buttocks must be lifted from the toilet seat to some extent, which is also difficult for elderly people and persons with physical disabilities.
 温風によって、水滴を乾かすという温水洗浄便器も存在する。しかし、トイレットペーパーで、しっかり水滴や汚れを拭き取りたいというニーズが存在することは否定できない。さらに、温風による乾燥には、時間がかかるという問題も存在する。また、肛門を乾燥させることは、常在菌を死滅させるおそれがあり、健康上、好ましくない場合がある。 There is also a hot water flush toilet that dries water drops with warm air. However, it cannot be denied that there is a need to wipe off water drops and dirt with toilet paper. Furthermore, there is a problem that it takes time to dry with warm air. In addition, drying the anus may cause death of resident bacteria, which may be unfavorable for health.
 このように、従来の装置は、いずれも、高齢者や体が不自由な者などにとって、完全に、水滴や汚れの拭き取り作業を容易にしていたとは言い難い。便座に座ったままの状態で、すなわち、臀部と便座とが接したままの状態で、水滴や汚れを拭き取ることができれば、従来に比べ、格段と、水滴や汚れの拭き取り作業が楽になる。 As described above, it is difficult to say that the conventional devices completely facilitate the wiping work of water droplets and dirt for the elderly and the physically handicapped. If water droplets and dirt can be wiped off while sitting on the toilet seat, that is, with the buttocks and toilet seat in contact with each other, the operation of wiping off water droplets and dirt is significantly easier than before.
 それゆえ、本発明の目的は、便座に座ったままの状態で、水滴や汚れの拭き取り作業を行うことができる臀部拭き取り装置及びそれを用いた温水洗浄装置及び温水洗浄便器を提供することである。 Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a buttock wiping device capable of wiping off water droplets and dirt while sitting on a toilet seat, and a hot water cleaning device and a hot water cleaning toilet using the same. .
 上記課題を解決するために、本発明は、以下のような特徴を有する。本発明は、便座に座っている人の臀部を紙で拭く臀部拭き取り装置であって、温水洗浄装置を収容する外筐体内に収容されており、紙を取り付け可能な拭き取りアーム部と、拭き取りアーム部を露出させることができる大きさを有しており、外筐体に設けられた露出口と、紙が取り付けられた状態で、拭き取りアーム部を露出口の内側にまで移動させる拭き取りアーム移動部と、拭き取りアーム部が露出口の内側にまで移動した状態で、拭き取りアーム部を露出口から露出するまで押進させるアーム駆動部とを備える。 In order to solve the above problems, the present invention has the following features. The present invention is a wiping device for wiping a buttock of a person sitting on a toilet seat with paper, and is housed in an outer housing that houses a hot water washing device, and a wiping arm portion to which paper can be attached, and a wiping arm Wiping arm moving part that moves the wiping arm part to the inside of the exposure opening with the exposure opening provided in the outer casing and paper attached And an arm drive unit that pushes the wiping arm unit until it is exposed from the exposure port in a state where the wiping arm unit has moved to the inside of the exposure port.
 これにより、紙が取り付けられた状態で、拭き取りアーム部が露出口から露出されるので、臀部に付着した水滴や汚れを拭き取ることができる。拭き取りアーム部の露出位置がユーザにとって適切な位置であれば、水滴や汚れは、座ったままの状態で拭き取られる。たとえ、拭き取りアーム部の露出位置が最適な位置からずれていたとしても、ユーザは、臀部を少し動かして紙を肛門付近にあてることによって、水滴や汚れを拭き取ることができる。このように、本発明によれば、便座に座ったままの状態で、水滴や汚れの拭き取り作業を行うことができる臀部拭き取り装置が提供されることとなる。また、便座の昇降などを行わずとも、紙を取り付けた拭き取りアーム部が露出されるので、臀部の拭き取りが安全に行われる。 This allows the wiping arm part to be exposed from the exposure port with the paper attached, so that water droplets and dirt adhering to the buttock can be wiped off. If the exposed position of the wiping arm is appropriate for the user, water droplets and dirt can be wiped off while sitting. Even if the exposure position of the wiping arm part is deviated from the optimum position, the user can wipe off water droplets and dirt by moving the collar part a little and placing the paper near the anus. Thus, according to the present invention, a buttock wiping device capable of wiping off water droplets and dirt while sitting on a toilet seat is provided. Further, since the wiping arm portion to which the paper is attached is exposed without raising and lowering the toilet seat, the buttock can be wiped off safely.
 好ましくは、臀部拭き取り装置は、温水洗浄装置及び拭き取りアーム部を外筐体内で共に保持するための内筐体をさらに備える。拭き取りアーム移動部は、拭き取りアーム部が露出口の内側にまで移動するように、内筐体を回動させるとよい。 Preferably, the buttock wiping device further includes an inner housing for holding the hot water cleaning device and the wiping arm portion together in the outer housing. The wiping arm moving unit may rotate the inner housing so that the wiping arm unit moves to the inside of the exposure port.
 これにより、温水洗浄装置によって臀部の洗浄が行われた後、紙を取り付けた拭き取りアーム部が露出口の内側にまで移動させることができる。よって、温水洗浄装置と紙による拭き取りとを共存させることが可能な臀部拭き取り装置が提供されることとなる。 Thus, after the buttock is washed by the hot water washing device, the wiping arm portion to which the paper is attached can be moved to the inside of the exposure opening. Therefore, a collar wiping device capable of coexisting a hot water cleaning device and paper wiping is provided.
 好ましくは、アーム駆動部は、少なくとも二つの回転部と、回転部間に架けられており、拭き取りアーム部に連結されたベルトと、少なくとも二つの回転部の内、少なくとも一つを回転させる第1のモータとを含み、第1のモータが回転することによって、ベルトに連結された拭き取りアーム部が前後進するとよい。 Preferably, the arm driving unit is spanned between at least two rotating units, the rotating unit, the belt connected to the wiping arm unit, and the first rotating at least one of the at least two rotating units. When the first motor rotates, the wiping arm portion connected to the belt may move forward and backward.
 このような簡易的な構成によって、拭き取りアーム部の露出を実現することができ、低コストに臀部拭き取り装置を提供することが可能となる。 With such a simple configuration, it is possible to realize the exposure of the wiping arm portion, and it is possible to provide a buttock wiping device at a low cost.
 好ましくは、少なくとも二つの回転部の内、露出口側の回転部は、少なくとも上下動可能なように取り付けられており、露出口側の回転部に対して上下運動する力を加えるアーム上下駆動部をさらに備えるとよい。 Preferably, of the at least two rotating parts, the rotating part on the exposure port side is attached so as to be movable at least up and down, and the arm vertical driving unit that applies a force to move up and down relative to the rotating part on the exposure port side May be further provided.
 これにより、適切な位置に拭き取りアーム部が露出しなかったとしても、ユーザは臀部を自ら動かすことなく、水滴や汚れを拭き取ってもらうことができる。 Thus, even if the wiping arm portion is not exposed at an appropriate position, the user can wipe off water droplets and dirt without moving the buttock himself.
 好ましくは、アーム上下駆動部は、変芯プーリーと、変芯プーリーの回転軸に取り付けられた第2のモータと、変芯プーリーの変芯軸と露出側の回転部とを両端で回動可能に連結する連結杆とを含み、第2のモータが回転することによって、連結杆が露出側の回転部に対して上下運動する力を加えるとよい。 Preferably, the arm up-and-down drive unit is capable of rotating at both ends a center changing pulley, a second motor attached to the rotating shaft of the center changing pulley, and the center changing shaft of the center changing pulley and the exposed rotating portion. It is preferable to apply a force that causes the connecting rod to move up and down with respect to the rotating portion on the exposed side by rotating the second motor.
 このように、簡易的で、かつ、メンテナンスがしやすい構造で、拭き取りアーム部の上下運動を実現することができる。 As described above, it is possible to realize the vertical movement of the wiping arm portion with a simple and easy-to-maintain structure.
 好ましくは、紙は、所定の厚さを有する専用紙であるとよい。その場合、臀部拭き取り装置は、専用紙を収容する紙収容部をさらに備える。また、拭き取りアーム部は、専用紙を取り付ける取付部を含む。さらに、紙収容部は、専用紙を押し出す押出部を含むとよい。押出部によって押し出された専用紙は、前記取付部に取り付けられる。 Preferably, the paper is a dedicated paper having a predetermined thickness. In that case, the buttock wiping device further includes a paper storage unit that stores the dedicated paper. Moreover, the wiping arm part includes an attachment part for attaching the dedicated paper. Furthermore, the paper storage unit may include an extruding unit for extruding dedicated paper. The dedicated paper extruded by the extruding unit is attached to the attachment unit.
 これにより、押出部によって押し出された専用紙は、拭き取りアーム部に取り付けられることとなる。このような簡易的な構造で、拭き取りアーム部に紙を取り付けることが可能となり、本発明の臀部拭き取り装置を低コストで提供することが可能となる。 This allows the special paper pushed out by the pusher to be attached to the wiping arm. With such a simple structure, paper can be attached to the wiping arm portion, and the buttock wiping device of the present invention can be provided at low cost.

The outer casing 2 holds a hot water cleaning device 6 and a wiping arm portion 5. The outer casing 2 is attached to the end of the toilet 1. The inner casing 3 is installed in the outer casing 2 and holds both the hot water cleaning device 6 and the wiping arm portion 5. The inner housing 3 can be rotated around a shaft 9 by a wiping arm moving unit 8 including a stepping motor. The paper storage unit 4 includes a lid 10. When the lid 10 is opened, a special paper for wiping the buttock can be stored in the paper storage unit 4. The wiping arm unit 5 has a mechanism capable of attaching a dedicated paper stored in the paper storage unit 4. The hot water cleaning device 6 removes dirt from the buttock by spraying warm water onto the buttock. Any known mechanism can be applied as the hot water cleaning device 6, and description of the mechanism of the hot water cleaning device 6 will be omitted in this specification. The nozzle port 7 is provided in the inner casing 3. The spray nozzle of the hot water cleaning device 6 protrudes from the nozzle port 7, and hot water is sprayed on the collar. The outer housing 2 includes an exposure port 2a having a size capable of exposing the spray nozzle and the wiping arm portion 5 of the hot water cleaning device 6.
 図2は、拭き取りアーム部5が露出口2aにまで移動したときの状態を示す図である。拭き取りアーム移動部8は、拭き取りアーム部5に専用紙が取り付けられた状態で、軸9を中心に内筐体3を回動させる。拭き取りアーム部5の先頭部分が露出口2aの内側にまで到達した段階で、内筐体3の回動は停止する。その後、アーム駆動部101(図4参照)は、拭き取りアーム部5を露出口から露出するまで押進させる。これにより、専用紙が取り付けられた拭き取りアーム部5が、露出口2aから露出し、臀部の水滴や汚れが拭き取られる。なお、拭き取りアーム部5の位置が最適な位置でなければ、ユーザは、臀部を動かして、水滴や汚れを紙に専用紙に拭き取らせると良い。 FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a state when the wiping arm portion 5 has moved to the exposure port 2a. The wiping arm moving unit 8 rotates the inner housing 3 around the shaft 9 in a state where the special paper is attached to the wiping arm unit 5. When the leading portion of the wiping arm portion 5 reaches the inside of the exposure port 2a, the rotation of the inner housing 3 stops. Thereafter, the arm drive unit 101 (see FIG. 4) pushes the wiping arm unit 5 until it is exposed from the exposure port. Thereby, the wiping arm part 5 to which the special paper is attached is exposed from the exposure port 2a, and water droplets and dirt on the collar part are wiped off. In addition, if the position of the wiping arm part 5 is not an optimal position, the user may move the collar part to wipe off water droplets and dirt on the paper with the dedicated paper.
 外筐体2は、内筐体2及び紙収容部4を収容している。内筐体2は、軸9を中心に回動可能に外筐体2内で保持されている。内筐体3の形状や外筐体2が内筐体3を保持する機構は特に限定されない。たとえば、内筐体3は、底面略弧状の錐体である。当該錐体の底面及び対応する外筐体2の内底面に弧状のガイドレールを設け、内筐体3が、軸9を中心に回動可能である。 The outer casing 2 accommodates the inner casing 2 and the paper accommodating portion 4. The inner casing 2 is held in the outer casing 2 so as to be rotatable about a shaft 9. The shape of the inner casing 3 and the mechanism for holding the inner casing 3 by the outer casing 2 are not particularly limited. For example, the inner housing 3 is a cone having a substantially arcuate bottom surface. An arc-shaped guide rail is provided on the bottom surface of the cone and the corresponding inner bottom surface of the outer casing 2, and the inner casing 3 can rotate around the shaft 9.
 図3は、外筐体2内の内筐体3及び紙収容部4を示す平面図である。図3では、温水洗浄装置6が露出口2aから露出可能な場所に位置している状況が示されている。図4は、図3におけるA-A断面図である。以下、図3及び図4を参照しながら、各部材の位置関係について説明する。 FIG. 3 is a plan view showing the inner casing 3 and the paper storage unit 4 in the outer casing 2. FIG. 3 shows a situation where the hot water cleaning device 6 is located at a place where it can be exposed from the exposure port 2a. 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA in FIG.

The wiping arm portion 5 includes a clip member 11 (attachment portion). As the stepping motor 12 rotates, the leaf spring 13 advances. Thereby, the wiping arm part 5 will push diagonally downward. The leaf spring 13 and the support portion 21 are pushing portions that push the wiping arm portion 5 while inclining downward toward the toilet.
 支持部21の下には、拭き取りアーム部5が露出口2aから露出している状態で、拭き取りアーム部5を上下に微動させるためのアーム上下駆動部104が設置されている。アーム上下駆動部104は、ステッピングモータ25と、ステッピングモータ25の軸25aに取り付けられた円板26と、クランク24と、スライド板23とを含む。スライド板23は、外筐体3と、支持部21から延伸しているスライド孔形成部材22との間の間隙をスライド可能である。スライド板23は、外筐体2内から、拭き取りアーム部5を押す押動部である。クランク24の一端は、円板26の中心からずれた位置に回動可能に取り付けられている。クランク24の他端は、スライド板23の他端に回動可能に取り付けられている。ステッピングモータ25が回転することによって、スライド板23は、外筐体3とスライド孔形成部材22との間を左右にスライド可能である。 Below the support part 21, an arm up / down drive part 104 for finely moving the wiping arm part 5 up and down in a state where the wiping arm part 5 is exposed from the exposure port 2a is installed. The arm vertical drive unit 104 includes a stepping motor 25, a disk 26 attached to a shaft 25 a of the stepping motor 25, a crank 24, and a slide plate 23. The slide plate 23 can slide in the gap between the outer housing 3 and the slide hole forming member 22 extending from the support portion 21. The slide plate 23 is a pushing portion that pushes the wiping arm portion 5 from the inside of the outer casing 2. One end of the crank 24 is rotatably attached to a position shifted from the center of the disc 26. The other end of the crank 24 is rotatably attached to the other end of the slide plate 23. By rotating the stepping motor 25, the slide plate 23 can slide left and right between the outer housing 3 and the slide hole forming member 22.
 内筐体3の回動中心に設けられた軸9は、ステッピングモータを含む拭き取りアーム駆動部8と連結されている。拭き取りアーム駆動部8のステッピングモータを回転させることよって、内筐体3全体を回動させることができる。 A shaft 9 provided at the center of rotation of the inner housing 3 is connected to a wiping arm driving unit 8 including a stepping motor. The entire inner casing 3 can be rotated by rotating the stepping motor of the wiping arm driving unit 8.

The special paper 18 includes a hard mount 18a and at least one water absorbent paper 18b stacked on the mount 18a. An adhesive, a pressure-sensitive adhesive, a resin having a large frictional force, or the like is applied to the upper surface of the mount 18a. The water-absorbent paper 18b is attached on the mount 18a by folding a rectangular piece of toilet paper. The mount 18a is water-soluble and is formed of a material that can be poured into a flush toilet. As the mount 18a, for example, water-soluble paper “MDP” manufactured by Nippon Paper Industries, Inc. may be used. The dedicated paper 18 may be manufactured in advance in a factory, or may be manufactured by a user by hand. As shown in FIG. 4, the dedicated paper 18 is stacked on the quadrangular prism body 102 of the paper storage unit 4.
 以下、図6~図10を参照しながら、臀部拭き取り装置100の動作について説明する。図6は、専用紙18が拭き取りアーム部5に取り付けられたときの様子を示す図である。図6に示すように、押出スライダ17がスライドすることによって、四角柱体102に設けられた専用紙排出口102aから、専用紙18が押し出される。専用紙排出口102aと拭き取りアーム部5の先端とは対向しており、押し出された専用紙18は、拭き取りアーム部5の傾斜を登っていく。クリップ部材11は、拭き取りアーム部5の先端から、専用紙18の幅だけの位置に設けられている。押し出された専用紙18の一辺は、クリップ部材11に挟み込まれる。これにより、専用紙18は、拭き取りアーム部5に取り付けられることとなる。 Hereinafter, the operation of the buttocks wiping device 100 will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a state when the dedicated paper 18 is attached to the wiping arm unit 5. As shown in FIG. 6, when the extrusion slider 17 slides, the dedicated paper 18 is pushed out from the dedicated paper discharge port 102 a provided in the quadrangular prism body 102. The dedicated paper discharge port 102a and the tip of the wiping arm unit 5 are opposed to each other, and the pushed-out dedicated paper 18 climbs the inclination of the wiping arm unit 5. The clip member 11 is provided at a position corresponding to the width of the dedicated paper 18 from the tip of the wiping arm portion 5. One side of the extruded exclusive paper 18 is sandwiched between the clip members 11. Thereby, the dedicated paper 18 is attached to the wiping arm unit 5.
 専用紙18が拭き取りアーム部5に取り付けられた後、拭き取りアーム部5の先端が露出口2aの内側に到達するまで、拭き取りアーム移動部8が内筐体3を回動させる。図7は、拭き取りアーム部5が露出口2aから露出される様子を示す図である。拭き取りアーム部5の先端が露出口2aの内側に到達すると、ステッピングモータ14が所定角だけ回動して、板バネ13が拭き取りアーム部5を斜め下方に押進させる。これにより、図7に示すように、専用紙18が取り付けられた状態で、拭き取りアーム部5が露出口2aから露出する。 After the dedicated paper 18 is attached to the wiping arm unit 5, the wiping arm moving unit 8 rotates the inner housing 3 until the tip of the wiping arm unit 5 reaches the inside of the exposure port 2a. FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating a state in which the wiping arm portion 5 is exposed from the exposure port 2a. When the tip of the wiping arm portion 5 reaches the inside of the exposure port 2a, the stepping motor 14 rotates by a predetermined angle, and the leaf spring 13 pushes the wiping arm portion 5 obliquely downward. Thereby, as shown in FIG. 7, the wiping arm part 5 is exposed from the exposure port 2a in a state where the special paper 18 is attached.
 拭き取りアーム部5が露出口2aから露出した後、拭き取りアーム部5の上下運動が開始される。図8は、拭き取りアーム部5を上下方向に微動させるときの様子を示す図である。拭き取りアーム部5が露出口2aから露出した後、ステッピングモータ25は、たとえば、90度回転する。これにより、スライド板23は、最大押進量の半分だけ押進する。これにより、拭き取りアーム部5は、上方向に微動することとなる。拭き取りアーム部5を上方向に微動させた後、ステッピングモータ25は、たとえば、逆方向に90度回転する。これにより、スライド板23は、最大押進量の半分だけ後進する。これにより、拭き取りアーム部5は、下方向に微動することとなる。上方向の微動、下方向の微動を繰り返すことによって、拭き取りアーム部5は、上下運動することとなる。そして、臀部に付着した水滴や汚れが専用紙18に拭き取られることとなる。このような上下微動によって、最適な位置に拭き取りアーム部5が露出しなかったとしても、水滴や汚れの拭き取りが可能となる。 After the wiping arm unit 5 is exposed from the exposure port 2a, the vertical movement of the wiping arm unit 5 is started. FIG. 8 is a view showing a state when the wiping arm portion 5 is finely moved in the vertical direction. After the wiping arm portion 5 is exposed from the exposure port 2a, the stepping motor 25 rotates, for example, 90 degrees. As a result, the slide plate 23 is pushed forward by half of the maximum push amount. Thereby, the wiping arm part 5 will finely move upward. After finely moving the wiping arm unit 5 upward, the stepping motor 25 rotates, for example, 90 degrees in the reverse direction. Thereby, the slide plate 23 moves backward by half of the maximum pushing amount. Thereby, the wiping arm part 5 will finely move downward. By repeating the fine movement in the upward direction and the fine movement in the downward direction, the wiping arm portion 5 moves up and down. Then, water droplets and dirt adhering to the buttock are wiped off by the special paper 18. Even if the wiping arm portion 5 is not exposed at the optimum position by such fine movement, it is possible to wipe off water drops and dirt.
 図9及び図10は、専用紙18が取り外されるときの様子を示す図である。図9に示すように、拭き取りアーム部5の上下運動が終了すると、アーム駆動部101は、ステッピングモータ14を逆方向に回転させて板バネ13を巻き取り、拭き取りアーム部5を後進させる。内筐体3の開口部分に設けられた引っ掛け部27の内側にクリップ部材11が入ったところで、アーム駆動部101は、拭き取りアーム部5の後進を停止する。その後、図10に示すように、ステッピングモータ25は、たとえば、180度回転する。これにより、スライド板23は、最大押進量だけ押進する。スライド板23の最大押進量は、スライド板23が最大押進量だけ押進した際、拭き取りアーム部5が引っ掛け部27に当接する程度の値である。最大押進量が得られるように、円板26、クランク24、及びスライド板23のサイズや取り付け位置が決められる。スライド板23が押進して、拭き取りアーム部5が引っ掛け部27に当接している状況で、アーム駆動部101は、拭き取りアーム部5を後進させる。これにより、専用紙18が引っ掛け部27に引っ掛かって、拭き取りアーム部5から外れることとなる。すなわち、引っ掛け部27は、臀部の拭き取りが終了した後、拭き取りアーム部に取り付けられている専用紙18を取り外すための紙取り外し部として機能する。その後、ステッピングモータ25が逆方向に回転してスライド板23を後進させる。そして、アーム駆動部10は、拭き取りアーム部5を後進させて、拭き取りアーム部5が元の位置に戻る。その後、拭き取りアーム移動部8は、逆方向に回転して、温水洗浄装置6を露出口2a側に露出可能にする。 FIG. 9 and FIG. 10 are views showing a state when the dedicated paper 18 is removed. As shown in FIG. 9, when the vertical movement of the wiping arm unit 5 is completed, the arm driving unit 101 rotates the stepping motor 14 in the reverse direction to wind up the leaf spring 13 and move the wiping arm unit 5 backward. When the clip member 11 enters the inside of the hook portion 27 provided in the opening portion of the inner housing 3, the arm driving portion 101 stops the backward movement of the wiping arm portion 5. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 10, the stepping motor 25 rotates, for example, 180 degrees. Thereby, the slide plate 23 is pushed forward by the maximum push amount. The maximum amount of pushing of the slide plate 23 is a value such that the wiping arm portion 5 contacts the hooking portion 27 when the slide plate 23 is pushed by the maximum pushing amount. The size and attachment position of the disc 26, the crank 24, and the slide plate 23 are determined so that the maximum pushing amount can be obtained. The arm drive unit 101 moves the wiping arm unit 5 backward while the slide plate 23 is pushed forward and the wiping arm unit 5 is in contact with the hooking unit 27. As a result, the dedicated paper 18 is caught by the hooking portion 27 and detached from the wiping arm portion 5. That is, the hook portion 27 functions as a paper removing portion for removing the dedicated paper 18 attached to the wiping arm portion after the wiping of the collar portion is completed. Thereafter, the stepping motor 25 rotates in the reverse direction to move the slide plate 23 backward. And the arm drive part 10 reversely moves the wiping arm part 5, and the wiping arm part 5 returns to the original position. Thereafter, the wiping arm moving unit 8 rotates in the reverse direction to allow the hot water cleaning device 6 to be exposed to the exposure port 2a side.
 図11は、臀部拭き取り装置100の電気的制御の機能ブロック図である。図11において、臀部拭き取り装置100は、入力部28と、記憶部29と、制御部30と、第1のドライバ31と、第2のドライバ32と、第3のドライバ33と、第4のドライバ34と、第1のステッピングモータ35と、第2のステッピングモータ36と、第3のステッピングモータ37と、第4のステッピングモータ38とを備える。第1のステッピングモータ35は、拭き取りアーム移動部8に含まれる。第2のステッピングモータ36は、押出部103に含まれるステッピングモータ15に対応する。第3のステッピングモータ37は、アーム駆動部101に含まれるステッピングモータ14に対応する。第4のステッピングモータ38は、アーム上下駆動部104に含まれるステッピングモータ25に対応する。 FIG. 11 is a functional block diagram of electrical control of the buttock wiping device 100. In FIG. 11, the heel wiping apparatus 100 includes an input unit 28, a storage unit 29, a control unit 30, a first driver 31, a second driver 32, a third driver 33, and a fourth driver. 34, a first stepping motor 35, a second stepping motor 36, a third stepping motor 37, and a fourth stepping motor 38. The first stepping motor 35 is included in the wiping arm moving unit 8. The second stepping motor 36 corresponds to the stepping motor 15 included in the extrusion unit 103. The third stepping motor 37 corresponds to the stepping motor 14 included in the arm driving unit 101. The fourth stepping motor 38 corresponds to the stepping motor 25 included in the arm vertical drive unit 104.
 入力部28は、ユーザの指示に応じて、動作の開始や停止を制御部30に伝える。制御部30は、予めプログラムされている順序に従って、記憶部29に格納されている所定量に基づく電気信号を、第1~第4のドライバ31~34に送る。第1のステッピングモータ35、第2のステッピングモータ36、第3のステッピングモータ37、及び第4のステッピングモータ38は、それぞれ、第1のドライバ31、第2のドライバ32、第3のドライバ33、及び第4のドライバ34からの電気信号に従った角度だけ回転する。 The input unit 28 notifies the control unit 30 of the start and stop of the operation according to the user's instruction. The control unit 30 sends electric signals based on a predetermined amount stored in the storage unit 29 to the first to fourth drivers 31 to 34 in accordance with a preprogrammed order. The first stepping motor 35, the second stepping motor 36, the third stepping motor 37, and the fourth stepping motor 38 are respectively a first driver 31, a second driver 32, a third driver 33, And rotate by an angle according to the electrical signal from the fourth driver 34.
 図12は、制御部30の動作を示すフローチャートである。以下、図12を参照しながら、臀部拭き取り装置100の動作について説明する。まず、入力部28において、臀部拭き取りスタートボタンが押下されたら、制御部30は、第2のステッピング36を所定角だけ回転させる(ステップS101)。当該所定角は、押出スライダ17が専用紙18を押し出して、専用紙18をクリップ部材11に取り付けることができる角度である(図6参照)。当該所定角に関する情報は、記憶部29に格納されている(以下同様)。 FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing the operation of the control unit 30. Hereinafter, the operation of the buttocks wiping device 100 will be described with reference to FIG. First, when the buttocks wiping start button is pressed in the input unit 28, the control unit 30 rotates the second stepping 36 by a predetermined angle (step S101). The predetermined angle is an angle at which the extrusion slider 17 can push out the special paper 18 and attach the special paper 18 to the clip member 11 (see FIG. 6). Information about the predetermined angle is stored in the storage unit 29 (the same applies hereinafter).
 次に、制御部30は、第2のステッピングモータ36を逆方向に所定角だけ回転させる(ステップS102)。当該所定角は、ステップS101における所定角と同一である。これにより、押出スライダ17が初期位置に戻る。 Next, the control unit 30 rotates the second stepping motor 36 by a predetermined angle in the reverse direction (step S102). The predetermined angle is the same as the predetermined angle in step S101. Thereby, the extrusion slider 17 returns to the initial position.
 次に、制御部30は、第1のステッピングモータ35を所定角だけ回転させる(ステップ103)。当該所定角は、拭き取りアーム部5が露出口2aの内側にまで到達するだけの角度である(図2参照)。 Next, the control unit 30 rotates the first stepping motor 35 by a predetermined angle (step 103). The predetermined angle is an angle that allows the wiping arm portion 5 to reach the inside of the exposure port 2a (see FIG. 2).
 次に、制御部30は、第3のステッピングモータ37を所定角だけ回転させる(ステップS104)。当該所定角は、板バネ13が押進することによって、拭き取りアーム部5が露出口2aから露出するだけの角度である(図7参照)。 Next, the control unit 30 rotates the third stepping motor 37 by a predetermined angle (step S104). The predetermined angle is an angle at which the wiping arm portion 5 is only exposed from the exposure port 2a when the leaf spring 13 is pushed forward (see FIG. 7).
 次に、制御部30は、第4のステッピングモータ38を所定角だけ回転させる(ステップS105)。当該所定角は、スライド板23が押進することによって、拭き取りアーム部5を上方向に動かすだけの角度である(図8参照)。 Next, the control unit 30 rotates the fourth stepping motor 38 by a predetermined angle (step S105). The predetermined angle is an angle that only moves the wiping arm 5 upward when the slide plate 23 is pushed forward (see FIG. 8).
 次に、制御部30は、入力部28において、ストップボタンが押下されたか否かを判断する(ステップS106)。 Next, the control unit 30 determines whether or not the stop button is pressed in the input unit 28 (step S106).
 ストップボタンが押下されていない場合、制御部30は、第4のステッピングモータ38を逆方向に所定角だけ回転させる(ステップS107)。当該所定角は、ステップS105における所定角と同一である。これにより、スライド板23が後進し、拭き取りアーム部5が下方向に動く(図7の状態)。 When the stop button is not pressed, the control unit 30 rotates the fourth stepping motor 38 by a predetermined angle in the reverse direction (step S107). The predetermined angle is the same as the predetermined angle in step S105. As a result, the slide plate 23 moves backward, and the wiping arm portion 5 moves downward (state shown in FIG. 7).
 一方、ストップボタンが押下された場合、制御部30は、ステップ107と同様、第4のステッピングモータ38を逆方向に所定角だけ回転させる(ステップS108)。 On the other hand, when the stop button is pressed, the control unit 30 rotates the fourth stepping motor 38 by a predetermined angle in the reverse direction, similarly to step 107 (step S108).
 ステップS108の後、制御部30は、第3のステッピングモータ37を逆方向に所定角だけ回転させる(ステップS109)。当該所定角は、拭き取りアーム部5のクリップ部材11が引っ掛け部27の内側まで入り込むだけの角度である。これにより、板バネ13が後進し、クリップ部材11が引っ掛け部27の内側まで入り込む(図9参照)。 After step S108, the control unit 30 rotates the third stepping motor 37 by a predetermined angle in the reverse direction (step S109). The predetermined angle is an angle at which the clip member 11 of the wiping arm portion 5 only enters the hook portion 27. Thereby, the leaf | plate spring 13 moves backward and the clip member 11 penetrates to the inner side of the hook part 27 (refer FIG. 9).
 次に、制御部30は、第4のステッピングモータ38を所定角だけ回転させる(ステップS110)。当該所定角は、スライド板23が押進し、引っ掛け部27に拭き取りアーム部5が当接するだけの角度である(図10参照)。 Next, the control unit 30 rotates the fourth stepping motor 38 by a predetermined angle (step S110). The predetermined angle is an angle at which the slide plate 23 is pushed forward and the wiping arm portion 5 comes into contact with the hook portion 27 (see FIG. 10).
 次に、制御部30は、第3のステッピングモータ37を所定角だけ回転させる(ステップS111)。当該所定角は、板バネ13が後退し、専用紙18がクリップ部材11から取り外されるだけの角度である。 Next, the control unit 30 rotates the third stepping motor 37 by a predetermined angle (step S111). The predetermined angle is an angle at which the leaf spring 13 is retracted and the special paper 18 is removed from the clip member 11.
 次に、制御部30は、第4のステッピングモータ38を所定角だけ回転させる(ステップS112)。当該所定角は、スライド板23が後進して、初期状態に戻るだけの角度である。これにより、拭き取りアーム部5が支持部21の傾斜角に沿った角度で傾斜することとなる。 Next, the control unit 30 rotates the fourth stepping motor 38 by a predetermined angle (step S112). The predetermined angle is an angle at which the slide plate 23 moves backward and returns to the initial state. Thereby, the wiping arm part 5 will incline at an angle along the inclination angle of the support part 21.
 次に、制御部30は、第3のステッピングモータ37を所定角だけ回転させる(ステップS113)。当該所定角は、板バネ13が後進して、初期状態に戻るだけの角度である。これにより、拭き取りアーム部5が初期状態に戻る。 Next, the control unit 30 rotates the third stepping motor 37 by a predetermined angle (step S113). The predetermined angle is an angle at which the leaf spring 13 moves backward and returns to the initial state. Thereby, the wiping arm part 5 returns to an initial state.
 最後に、制御部30は、第1のステッピングモータ35を逆方向に所定角だけ回転させる(ステップS114)。当該所定角は、ステップS103における所定角と同一である。これにより、拭き取りアーム部5は、外筐体2内に収容され、温水洗浄装置6が使用可能な状態に戻る。 Finally, the control unit 30 rotates the first stepping motor 35 by a predetermined angle in the reverse direction (step S114). The predetermined angle is the same as the predetermined angle in step S103. Thereby, the wiping arm part 5 is accommodated in the outer housing | casing 2, and the warm water washing | cleaning apparatus 6 returns to the state which can be used.
 なお、上記動作において、適宜、入力部28に含まれる一時停止ボタンが押下されれば、制御部30は、押下されたときの状態で各ステッピングモータを停止させる。これにより、ユーザは好きな位置で拭き取りアーム部5を固定して、臀部を自ら動かして、水や汚れを拭き取ることができる。 In the above operation, if a pause button included in the input unit 28 is appropriately pressed, the control unit 30 stops each stepping motor in the state when the button is pressed. Thereby, the user can wipe off water and dirt by fixing the wiping arm portion 5 at a desired position and moving the buttock himself.
 なお、各ステッピングモータが停止中に回転してしまわないように、あらゆる周知の回転防止機構が用いられている。 It should be noted that any known anti-rotation mechanism is used so that each stepping motor does not rotate while stopped.
 このように、第1の実施形態によれば、紙が取り付けられた状態で、拭き取りアーム部5が露出口2aから露出されるので、臀部に付着した水滴や汚れを拭き取ることができる。拭き取りアーム部5の露出位置がユーザにとって適切な位置であれば、水滴や汚れは、座ったままの状態で拭き取られる。たとえ、拭き取りアーム部5の露出位置が最適な位置からずれていたとしても、ユーザは、臀部を少し動かして紙を肛門付近にあてることによって、水滴や汚れを拭き取ることができる。したがって、便座に座ったままの状態で、水滴や汚れの拭き取り作業を行うことができる臀部拭き取り装置100並びにそれを用いた温水洗浄便座及び温水洗浄便器が提供されることとなる。また、便座の昇降などを行わずとも、紙を取り付けた拭き取りアーム部5が露出されるので、臀部の拭き取りが安全に行われる。 Thus, according to the first embodiment, since the wiping arm portion 5 is exposed from the exposure port 2a in a state where paper is attached, water droplets and dirt attached to the collar portion can be wiped off. If the exposed position of the wiping arm unit 5 is an appropriate position for the user, water droplets and dirt can be wiped off while sitting. Even if the exposure position of the wiping arm unit 5 is deviated from the optimum position, the user can wipe off water droplets and dirt by moving the collar slightly and placing the paper near the anus. Therefore, the buttocks wiping device 100 that can perform the operation of wiping off water droplets and dirt while sitting on the toilet seat, and the hot water cleaning toilet seat and the hot water cleaning toilet using the same are provided. Moreover, since the wiping arm part 5 to which the paper is attached is exposed without raising or lowering the toilet seat, the buttock is wiped off safely.
 また、温水洗浄装置6によって臀部の洗浄が行われた後、紙を取り付けた拭き取りアーム部5が露出口2aの内側にまで移動させることができる。よって、温水洗浄装置6と紙による拭き取りとを共存させることが可能な臀部拭き取り装置100が提供されることとなる。 Further, after the buttock is washed by the hot water washing device 6, the wiping arm portion 5 to which the paper is attached can be moved to the inside of the exposure port 2a. Therefore, the buttock wiping device 100 capable of coexisting the hot water cleaning device 6 and wiping with paper is provided.
 さらに、押出スライダ17によって押し出された専用紙18は、拭き取りアーム部5のクリップ部材11に把持されることとなる。このような簡易的な構造で、拭き取りアーム部5に紙を取り付けることが可能となり、臀部拭き取り装置100を低コストで提供することが可能となる。 Further, the dedicated paper 18 pushed out by the pusher slider 17 is gripped by the clip member 11 of the wiping arm unit 5. With such a simple structure, paper can be attached to the wiping arm unit 5, and the heel wiping device 100 can be provided at low cost.
 また、拭き取りアーム部5が露出した際、最適な位置になかったとしても、アーム上下駆動部104によって、拭き取りアーム部5が上下するので、ユーザが臀部を動かさなくても、水滴や汚れが拭き取られることが期待できる。 Further, even when the wiping arm unit 5 is exposed, even if it is not in an optimum position, the wiping arm unit 5 is moved up and down by the arm vertical drive unit 104, so that water drops and dirt can be wiped without the user moving the buttocks. You can expect to be taken.
 また、アーム上下駆動部104を利用して、紙を取り外すことができるので、簡易な構成による紙の取り外しが実現される。加えて、紙の取り外しと拭き取りアーム部5の上下微動とを同一の機構で実現することができるので、臀部拭き取り装置100の低コスト化に貢献できる。 Further, since the paper can be removed using the arm up / down drive unit 104, the paper can be removed with a simple configuration. In addition, since the removal of paper and the fine movement of the wiping arm unit 5 can be realized by the same mechanism, it is possible to contribute to the cost reduction of the buttock wiping device 100.

 以下、図15~図20を参照しながら、第2の実施形態における臀部拭き取り装置100aの動作について説明する。なお、第2の実施形態における臀部拭き取り装置100aの電気的機構については、第1の実施形態と類似であるので、説明を省略する。 Hereinafter, the operation of the buttock wiping device 100a according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. In addition, about the electrical mechanism of the buttocks wiping apparatus 100a in 2nd Embodiment, since it is similar to 1st Embodiment, description is abbreviate | omitted.
 図15に示すように、ステッピングモータ15が所定角回転することによって、押出スライダ17aが押進する。このとき、ストッパー39は、専用紙18fの台紙18cに当接する。したがって、ストッパー39は、突出した状態のまま、専用紙18fを押し出すことになる。これにより、専用紙18fに形成された空隙に、拭き取りアーム部43の先端が入り込み、専用紙18fが拭き取りアーム部43に取り付けられる。このとき、ストッパー39は、専用紙18fの重みによって、押し下がっている。 As shown in FIG. 15, when the stepping motor 15 rotates by a predetermined angle, the pushing slider 17a is pushed forward. At this time, the stopper 39 contacts the mount 18c of the dedicated paper 18f. Therefore, the stopper 39 pushes out the dedicated paper 18f in a protruding state. As a result, the tip of the wiping arm portion 43 enters the gap formed in the dedicated paper 18 f, and the dedicated paper 18 f is attached to the wiping arm portion 43. At this time, the stopper 39 is pushed down by the weight of the special paper 18f.
 次に、図16に示すように、ステッピングモータ15が逆方向に所定角回転することによって、押出スライダ17aが後進する。このとき、ストッパー39が押し下がったまま、押出スライダ17aが後進する。押出スライダ17aの後進が終わると、バネ41にストッパー39の一端が引っ張られて、ストッパー39が突出することとなる。 Next, as shown in FIG. 16, when the stepping motor 15 rotates by a predetermined angle in the reverse direction, the pushing slider 17a moves backward. At this time, the extrusion slider 17a moves backward while the stopper 39 is pushed down. When the backward movement of the extrusion slider 17a is completed, one end of the stopper 39 is pulled by the spring 41, and the stopper 39 protrudes.
 拭き取りアーム部43に専用紙18fが取り付けられた状態で、拭き取りアーム移動部8に含まれるステッピングモータが回転して、拭き取りアーム部43の先端が露出口2aの内側にまで移動する(図17参照)。図17に示すように、外筐体2bには、引っ掛け部58が取り付けられている。引っ掛け部58の一端は、外筐体2bの一端で、回動可能に取り付けられている。 With the special paper 18f attached to the wiping arm 43, the stepping motor included in the wiping arm moving unit 8 rotates and the tip of the wiping arm 43 moves to the inside of the exposure port 2a (see FIG. 17). ). As shown in FIG. 17, a hook portion 58 is attached to the outer casing 2b. One end of the hook portion 58 is rotatably attached to one end of the outer casing 2b.
 次に、図18に示すように、回転体47が所定角回転する。これにより、ベルト46は、回転体47と回転体50との間を回転する。回転体47は、拭き取りアーム部43の先端が露出口2aから露出する位置で停止する。このとき、拭き取りアーム部43の先端は、引っ掛け部58を押し上げるようにして、押進する。切欠部45はコの字状に形成されているので、専用紙18fは、切欠部45の底端で引っかかり、落ちることはない。 Next, as shown in FIG. 18, the rotating body 47 rotates by a predetermined angle. As a result, the belt 46 rotates between the rotating body 47 and the rotating body 50. The rotating body 47 stops at a position where the tip of the wiping arm portion 43 is exposed from the exposure port 2a. At this time, the tip of the wiping arm portion 43 is pushed up so as to push up the hook portion 58. Since the notch 45 is formed in a U shape, the dedicated paper 18f is caught at the bottom end of the notch 45 and does not fall.
 次に、図19に示すように、モータ56が回転する。これによって、回転体50を上下させる力が連結杆53によって軸51に加えられる。図19に示すように、専用紙18fを取り付けた拭き取りアーム部43は上下運動を繰り返す。したがって、臀部に付着した水滴や汚れが拭き取られることとなる。 Next, as shown in FIG. 19, the motor 56 rotates. Thereby, a force for moving the rotating body 50 up and down is applied to the shaft 51 by the connecting rod 53. As shown in FIG. 19, the wiping arm portion 43 to which the special paper 18f is attached repeats the vertical movement. Therefore, water droplets and dirt adhering to the heel portion are wiped off.
 最後に、図20に示すように、モータ47が逆方向に回転して、拭き取りアーム部43を初期位置に戻す。その際、専用紙18fは、引っ掛け部58に引っかかって、下に落とされる。 Finally, as shown in FIG. 20, the motor 47 rotates in the reverse direction to return the wiping arm 43 to the initial position. At that time, the dedicated paper 18f is caught by the hook 58 and dropped down.
 このように、第2の実施形態によれば、紙が取り付けられた状態で、拭き取りアーム部43が露出口2aから露出されるので、臀部に付着した水滴や汚れを拭き取ることができる。拭き取りアーム部43の露出位置がユーザにとって適切な位置であれば、水滴や汚れは、座ったままの状態で拭き取られる。たとえ、拭き取りアーム部43の露出位置が最適な位置からずれていたとしても、ユーザは、臀部を少し動かして紙を肛門付近にあてることによって、水滴や汚れを拭き取ることができる。したがって、便座に座ったままの状態で、水滴や汚れの拭き取り作業を行うことができる臀部拭き取り装置100a並びにそれを用いた温水洗浄便座及び温水洗浄便器が提供されることとなる。また、便座の昇降などを行わずとも、紙を取り付けた拭き取りアーム部43が露出されるので、臀部の拭き取りが安全に行われる。 Thus, according to the second embodiment, since the wiping arm portion 43 is exposed from the exposure port 2a in a state where paper is attached, water droplets and dirt adhering to the collar portion can be wiped off. If the exposure position of the wiping arm 43 is an appropriate position for the user, water droplets and dirt can be wiped off while sitting. Even if the exposed position of the wiping arm portion 43 is deviated from the optimum position, the user can wipe off water droplets and dirt by moving the collar slightly and placing the paper near the anus. Therefore, the buttocks wiping device 100a capable of wiping off water droplets and dirt while sitting on the toilet seat, and the hot water cleaning toilet seat and the hot water cleaning toilet using the same are provided. Further, since the wiping arm portion 43 to which the paper is attached is exposed without raising and lowering the toilet seat, the buttock can be wiped off safely.
 また、温水洗浄装置6によって臀部の洗浄が行われた後、紙を取り付けた拭き取りアーム部43が露出口2aの内側にまで移動させることができる。よって、温水洗浄装置6と紙による拭き取りとを共存させることが可能な臀部拭き取り装置100aが提供されることとなる。 Further, after the buttock is washed by the hot water washing device 6, the wiping arm portion 43 attached with paper can be moved to the inside of the exposure port 2a. Therefore, the buttock wiping device 100a capable of coexisting the hot water cleaning device 6 and wiping with paper is provided.
 さらに、押出スライダ17aによって押し出された専用紙18fは、拭き取りアーム部43の先端に取り付けられることとなる。このような簡易的な構造で、拭き取りアーム部43に紙を取り付けることが可能となり、臀部拭き取り装置100aを低コストで提供することが可能となる。 Furthermore, the dedicated paper 18 f pushed out by the push slider 17 a is attached to the tip of the wiping arm portion 43. With such a simple structure, paper can be attached to the wiping arm portion 43, and the heel wiping device 100a can be provided at low cost.
 また、拭き取りアーム部43が露出した際、最適な位置になかったとしても、アーム上下駆動部104aによって、拭き取りアーム部43が上下するので、ユーザが臀部を動かさなくても、水滴や汚れが拭き取られることが期待できる。 Even when the wiping arm portion 43 is exposed, even if the wiping arm portion 43 is not in an optimal position, the wiping arm portion 43 is moved up and down by the arm up / down drive portion 104a, so that water drops and dirt can be wiped without the user moving the buttocks. You can expect to be taken.
 また、回転体47,50及びベルト46を用いるという簡易な構造によって、拭き取りアーム部43を押進することができる。したがって、臀部拭き取り装置100aを低コストで提供することが可能となる。 Further, the wiping arm portion 43 can be pushed forward by a simple structure using the rotating bodies 47 and 50 and the belt 46. Therefore, it is possible to provide the buttocks wiping device 100a at a low cost.
