TOILET SYSTEM
A toilet system includes: a toilet seat; a sensor configured to measure a physical quantity which reflects blood flow conditions of a user; a health index calculator configured to calculate a plurality of health indices based on measurement results of the sensor; a health index output part configured to output the plurality of health indices which has been calculated; a timer configured to measure a seating time; and a controller configured to control an output manner of the health index output part based on measurement results of the timer. When the seating time is not shorter than a first required time but shorter than a second required time, the first health index is outputted, but the second health index is stopped to be outputted. When the seating time is not shorter than the second required time, both the first health index and the second health index are outputted.
TOILET SYSTEM
A toilet system includes: a toilet seat having a seat surface on which a user is to sit; a sensor provided in or on the toilet seat, configured to measure a physical quantity which reflects blood flow conditions of the user; a health index calculator configured to calculate a health index of the user based on measurement results of the sensor; a health index output part configured to output the health index of the user which has been calculated by the health index calculator; a temperature determining part configured to determine whether a temperature state of the seat surface satisfies a predetermined condition or not, and an operation change instruction part configured to change an operation of the health index calculator and/or an operation of the health index output part when the temperature determining part determines that the temperature state of the seat surface satisfies the predetermined condition.
WARM-AIR DEVICE FOR TOILET SEAT, CONTROL METHOD AND TOILET SEAT
A method for controlling a toilet air heating device includes: in response to a start instruction, controlling an air heating wire component to heat, controlling an air heating fan to blow air, controlling a drive motor to drive an internal air duct to extend out along an extension direction of an external air duct, and controlling an auxiliary heater to heat, wherein an air heating wire component controller controls the air heating wire component while a master controller controls the air heating fan, the drive motor, and the auxiliary heater.
TOILET MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND MANAGEMENT DEVICE
A toilet management system includes a toilet bowl device installed in a toilet room, a management device configured to manage a use situation of the toilet bowl device, and a communication device configured to transmit use situation information related to the use situation of the toilet bowl device to the management device. The management device includes an acquirer configured to acquire the use situation information from the communication device, and an abnormality detector configured to detect an abnormality of the toilet bowl device or a facility or equipment installed inside or around the toilet room when the use situation information acquired by the acquirer matches a predetermined condition.
Toilet seat cover for automatic cleaning
A toilet seat cover is configured to fit over a corresponding toilet seat, forming an air tight seal around the toilet seat at a lower edge of the toilet seat cover when the toilet seat cover is in a lowered position. The toilet seat cover provides a seat channel in the underside of the toilet seat cover in which the seat resides when the toilet seat cover is lowered. There is a gap between the toilet seat and the underside of the toilet seat cover in the seat channel to allow air to flow between the seat and the underside of the toilet seat cover. The toilet seat cover includes a fluid channel and a plurality of nozzles along the fluid channel which spray the toilet seat with a cleaning or sanitizing fluid when the toilet seat cover is in the lowered position. After stopping the spraying of sanitizing fluid, the toilet is flushed using suction, lowering the air pressure under the toilet seat cover. Holes in the toilet seat cover into the seat channel direct the flow of air over the surface of the toilet seat to dry the toilet seat.
Toilet seat assembly
A toilet seat assembly is provided including a seat base with a housing and a seat lid, and further including a washing apparatus, a drying apparatus, and a spray canister device positioned in the housing. A controller having a user interface is configured to communicate with a control unit of the toilet seat assembly to control operation of the components of the toilet seat assembly. So configured, a user may operate the toilet seat assembly to clean the user's perineal region via the washing apparatus, dry the user's perineal region via the drying apparatus, and spray the user's perineal region with one or more liquid products via the spray canister device.
Water area apparatus
A water area apparatus according to one aspect of embodiments includes: a first device; a second device whose power consumption is smaller than that of the first device; a Power Factor Correction (PFC) circuit that is connected to an Alternating-Current power supply, reduces harmonic current, and steps up a voltage to output the stepped-up voltage; and a regulator that is connected to the PFC circuit and steps down a voltage to obtain a constant voltage, wherein the voltage stepped up by the PFC circuit is applied to the first device, and the voltage stepped down by the regulator is applied to the second device.

The toilet seat cover provides a seat channel in the underside of the toilet seat cover in which the seat resides when the toilet seat cover is lowered. There is a gap between the toilet seat and the underside of the toilet seat cover in the seat channel to allow air to flow between the seat and the underside of the toilet seat cover. The toilet seat cover includes a fluid channel and a plurality of nozzles along the fluid channel which spray the toilet seat with a cleaning or sanitizing fluid when the toilet seat cover is in the lowered position. After stopping the spraying of sanitizing fluid, the toilet is flushed using suction, lowering the air pressure under the toilet seat cover. Holes in the toilet seat cover into the seat channel direct the flow of air over the surface of the toilet seat to dry the toilet seat.
USER IDENTITY IN HOUSEHOLD APPLIANCES
A system of household appliances is configured to provide services according to user identity. The system includes a first appliance, a server or other network device, and a second appliance. The first appliance is configured to collect sensor data associated with an identity of a user. The server or other network device is configured to receive the sensor data from the first appliance and analyze the sensor data to determine the identity of the user. The second appliance is configured to provide a device function to the user based on the identity determined from the sensor data collected by the first appliance.
Toilet seat conditioning assembly
A toilet seat conditioning assembly for heating or cooling a toilet seat includes a cover that is formed into a circular shape for positioning on top of a toilet seat. A thermal unit is integrated into the cover and the thermal unit is actuatable to heat the cover or the cool the cover to enhance comfort for the user. A plurality of vibration units is each integrated into the cover. Each of the vibration units vibrates the cover when the vibration units are turned on to enhance comfort for the user. A remote control is in remote communication with the thermal unit and each of the vibration units for remotely controlling the thermal unit and the vibration units.
