Abstract

An abnormality sensing system according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a sensing unit that senses the use of each of a plurality of use targets that can be used by users of a toilet; a storage unit that stores history information indicating the use of each of the plurality of use targets; and a control unit that, if processing is executed with one use target of the plurality of use targets as a target, executes first processing in which information, from the history information stored in the storage unit, that indicates uses during a prescribed period, or a prescribed number of uses, as target information and, if the target information acquired through the first processing does not include use of the one use target or if the uses during the prescribed period, or the prescribed number of uses, of the one use target in the target information acquired through the first processing are lower by at least a prescribed amount when compared with other use targets than the one use target, executes second processing in which it is assessed that an abnormality has occurred in the one use target. The control unit, in the first processing, acquires, as the target information, information that excludes information indicating the use of other use targets during the period in which the one use target is in use.

Abstract

A water discharge device that discharges water while reciprocally vibrating the water. The water discharge device includes a water discharge device body and a vibration generating element. The vibration generating element includes a water supply path, a collision portion, a vortex street path, and a discharge path. The vortex street path is formed by fitting an upstream fitting portion of an upstream member and a downstream fitting portion of a downstream member to each other. The upstream member or the downstream member is provided with a vibration reducing portion that reduces vibration of the upstream member due to vortices generated in the vortex street path. The upstream fitting portion or the downstream fitting portion is elastically deformed by a predetermined amount due to the provision of the vibration reducing portion.

Abstract

A power generation module includes an input part, an elastic member, generator, a rotatable member, a transmission part, and a lock part. The elastic member stores energy input to the input part. The generator generates power when a rotor of the generator is rotated. The rotatable member rotates the rotor. The transmission part transmits the energy stored in the elastic member to the rotatable member. The lock part restricts a rotation of the rotor by the transmission part. The energy is stored in the elastic member by the lock part restricting the rotation of the rotor while the input part moves from an initial position to a prescribed position. The restriction of the rotor by the lock part is released and the rotor is rotated by the energy stored in the elastic member when the input part moves to the prescribed position.

Abstract

A sanitary washing device includes a casing, a toilet lid, a rotation detection sensor, a human body detection sensor, a spray device, and a control device. The casing is disposed at a toilet. The toilet lid is rotatably mounted on the casing. The rotation detection sensor detects a rotation of the toilet lid. The human body detection sensor detects a human body when the toilet lid is in an open state. The spray device sprays a mist into the toilet. The control device controls the spray device. The control device operates the spray device when the rotation detection sensor detects an opening operation of the toilet lid, or when the human body detection sensor detects a human body.

Abstract

A plurality of color sensing sections are attached to a toilet seat so as to test a health state or a fecal occult blood portion every time by capturing the feces surface color during defecation. Before feces which have been excreted from a body sink into a water-seal portion, the circumference of the feces is optically captured to detect the color of the surface of the feces. By monitoring changes in color, the health state of the defecator is monitored. In particular, by checking the presence/absence of an occult blood portion, the present invention assists in early detection of colorectal cancer and allows a fecal occult blood test to be performed in a hygienic manner without burdening the user.

Abstract

Disclosed is an indoor unit including equipment that handles tap water, with which it is possible to effectively prevent the proliferation of chlorine-resistant Methylobacterium or effectively kill chlorine-resistant Methylobacterium that have proliferated. This unit is an indoor unit which includes equipment that handles tap water. The unit includes a means for providing tap water to the equipment that handles tap water, an electrolytic device for conducting electrolysis of tap water to generate electrolyzed water, and an electrolyzed water discharge means which makes it possible for the electrolyzed water to come into contact with the surface of the unit. The electrolyzed water contains ozone and free chlorine. The concentration of the ozone and the concentration of the free chlorine, where the latter is y (ppm) and the former is x (ppm), satisfy all the requirements expressed by equation 1: y ≥ 4.1079e-18.35x, equation 2: 0.1 ≤ y < 5, and equation 3: 0 < x < 3.
