When the outer operation surface is opened, the state of the changeover switch is switched, and various operation switches are switched from the function displayed on the outer operation surface to the function corresponding to the function displayed on the inner operation surface, and one operation is performed. Switches serve two roles. The inner operation surface functions as an operation switch for operating the timer of the hot water cleaning device.

As described above, according to the present invention, the provision of the changeover switch allows one operation switch to have two functions, thereby reducing the number of operation switches and reducing the cost. Further, since the area of the operation surface is increased, the function display of the switch can be enlarged, and the switch can be easily viewed. Further, operability is improved by displaying the function display of the switch that is often used on the outer operation surface. In particular, the hot water washing device is used by children and adults, and therefore has a great effect.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Embodiments of the present invention will be described below based on examples. FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a hot water cleaning device operation panel according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is an enlarged view showing a relationship between a first operation surface, a second operation surface, and operation switches in FIG. 1, and a third is hot water cleaning according to the present invention. FIG. 4 is a plan view of the operation panel of the apparatus, and FIG. 4 is a plan view of the hot water cleaning apparatus operation panel according to the present invention in a state where a first operation surface on the outside is opened.

Remote control operation panel 1 as operation panel for hot water washing device
Arranges various operation switches 3 on a printed circuit board 2 and covers the various operation switches 3 twice with a second operation surface 4 as an inner operation surface and a first operation surface 5 as an outer operation surface.
The operation surface 5 is assembled so as to be openable and closable around one end like a door, and further, a changeover switch 6 which is turned off when the first operation surface 5 is opened is arranged on the printed circuit board 2, and these are connected to the bottom. It is housed in a case 7 consisting of a side 7a and a side 7b. In addition, 8a is a top sheet.

As shown in FIG. 3, the first operation surface 5 has a posterior washing switch 5a, a bidet switch 5b, a drying switch 5c, a stop switch 5d, which is relatively frequently used among the hot water washing devices, and a strong water pressure control. -Functions such as the weak switches 5e and 5f are displayed.

The bottom cleaning is a function of cleaning the bottom with plenty of hot water from a bottom cleaning nozzle. The bidet has a function of delicately washing with soft water from a bidet washing nozzle. Drying is a function of drying a washed portion with warm air after washing. The stop is a function for stopping the operation of various functions such as posterior washing. The strength / weakness of the water force adjustment is a function that can adjust the force of the warm water from the washing nozzle to a desired force.

In a state where the first operation surface 5 is closed as shown in FIG. 1, for example, when a portion indicated as a posterior washing switch 5a is pressed, the washing switch is switched via the second operation surface 4 as shown in FIG. The operation switch 3 arranged at a position facing the portion indicated by 5a is pressed. At this time, operation switch 3
Since the changeover switch 6 is in the ON state, it functions as a posterior washing switch, and the hot water washing device starts the posterior washing operation.

As shown in FIG. 4, the second operation surface 4 includes a massage on / off switch 4a, a move on / off switch 4b, which are relatively infrequently used among the hot water cleaning devices, and a hot water provided in the hot water cleaning device. A reservation / cancel switch 4c for a timer function for switching on / off of energization of a heater such as a tank depending on time, an hour / minute switch 4d for time setting,
The functions of the front / rear switches 4e and 4f of the nozzle adjustment are displayed.

[0016] Massage is a function of performing posterior washing and bidet washing while changing the force of hot water from the washing nozzle at a predetermined cycle. "Move" is a function for performing buttocks washing and bidet washing while swinging the washing nozzle back and forth.
Before and after nozzle adjustment is a function that allows fine adjustment of the cleaning nozzle back and forth to a desired position.

Then, as shown in FIG. 4, when the first operation surface 5 is opened, for example, when a part indicated as a massage on / off switch 4a is pressed, a part indicated as a cleaning switch 5a is displayed on the second operation surface 4. The common operation switch 3, which also functions as the cleaning switch 5a disposed at a position opposite to the above, is pressed. At this time, the operation switch 3 functions as the massage on / off switch 4a because the changeover switch 6 is in the off state, and the warm water cleaning device starts the massage operation.

As described above, when the first operation surface 5 is closed, that is, when the changeover switch 6 is turned on, the various operation switches 3 are operated by the switches 5a, 5a, 5
b, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f, etc., when the first operation surface is open, that is, when the changeover switch 6 is off, the various operation switches 3 are the switches 4a, 4b, Functions as 4c, 4d, 4e, 4f, etc. Therefore, one operation switch can have two functions.

The changeover switch 6 may be provided on the first operation surface 5 or the second operation surface 4, and may further include a display means for displaying the changeover state of the changeover switch 6. In this embodiment, the remote control panel is used, but the same applies to the main panel of the hot water washing apparatus. As shown in FIG. 4, the first operation surface 5 may be a rotating type or a sliding type, and may be a partially double operation surface structure.

If only the reservation / cancel switch 4c for the timer function which is not frequently used and the hour / minute changeover switch 4d for setting the time are concealed in the door, and the double operation surface structure is used, This is particularly effective because the switch for setting the timer function and the time setting with a low frequency can be shared with other switches, and it is possible to prevent the user from unnecessarily changing the setting of the timer operation and the time setting due to mischief or the like. .

The embodiments of the present invention have been described above.
The present invention is not limited to such embodiments at all, and it goes without saying that the present invention can be implemented in various modes without departing from the gist of the present invention.
