Abstract: A toilet seat apparatus includes a base portion adapted to be fixed on a toilet bowl, a main body portion detachably mounted on the base portion, a toilet seat rotatably supported by the main body portion, a guide groove formed at the base portion and extending in a backward and forward direction of the toilet bowl and having an opening portion at a front side thereof, and a pin provided at the main body portion, the pin being inserted into the guide groove for allowing the main body portion to slide relative to the base portion, rise from the base portion, and to detach from the base portion.

Abstract: A sanitary device is comprised of a tank storing an amount of water, a water pressure source, a cylinder, a nozzle pipe slidably fitted in the cylinder such that across the nozzle pipe a base side chamber and a distal side chamber are defined in the cylinder, a return spring accommodated in the distal side chamber and urging the nozzle pipe toward the retracted position thereof, and a control device serving for establishing either a first fluid communication between the tank and the base side chamber or a second fluid communication between the tank and the distal side chamber in such a manner that the first fluid communication brings the nozzle pipe into its operating position for ejecting the water while the water pressure is being supplied to the tank and the second fluid communication, together with the return spring, brings the nozzle pipe into its retracted position.

Abstract: An electric circuit substrate apparatus having a micro-processor for a control of a device is comprised of a substrate, an electric circuit arranged on the substrate and including a rectifier, an electrolysis condenser, a detecting device for detecting the voltage of a current outputted from the electrolysis condenser and the micro-processor which is set to stop the control of the device upon receipt of a signal from the detecting device, and an enclosing device for immersing therein the substrate and the electric circuit, except for a portion of electrolysis condenser, in order that the immersed elements are interrupted from the ambient air.

Abstract: A warm water tank in a sanitary device for a toilet bowl has a tank portion. A heater disposed in the tank portion so as to be located at a side portion of the toilet bowl. A water supply pipe is disposed in the tank portion so as to be located at the side portion of the toilet bowl. A water storing chamber formed in the tank portion so as to be located at a upper portion of the toilet bowl.

Abstract: A connecting device is comprised of a first housing having therein a pair of parallely spaced first passages each of which has a proximal end and a distal end, a male terminal accommodated in each of the first passages and having a proximal end to which a first wire is connected and a distal end, a second housing having therein a pair of parallely spaced second passages each of which has a proximal end and a distal end fitted into the distal end of the corresponding first passage, a female terminal accommodated in each of the second passages, having a proximal end to which a second wire is connected and a distal end engaged with the distal end of the corresponding male terminal, and an amount of viscous oily substance positioned in the neighbourhood of a portion at which the distal end of the male terminal and the distal end of the female terminal are in engagement with each other in such a manner of an establishment of conductivity therebetween.

Abstract: A sanitary device is comprised of a toilet bowl having therein an inner space and a rear portion, a casing mounted on the rear portion of the toilet bowl, an outer nozzle having at its front, intermediate and rear portions an opening, a tapered wall and an inlet, respectively, and secured to the casing in such a manner that the outer nozzle is oriented toward the inner space of the toilet bowl. A water supply device supplies an amount of water continuously to the inlet of the outer nozzle. An auxiliary valve is provided at a frontward portion of the tapered wall of the outer nozzle for interrupting the fluid communication between the atmosphere and the inside of the outer nozzle.

Abstract: A phosphor layer is coated on an inner wall of a tubular glass bulb. A predetermined amount of a rare gas containing xenon gas as a main component thereof is sealed and enclosed in the tubular glass bulb. A pair of belt-shaped electrodes are formed on an outer wall of the enclosed glass bulb throughout substantially the entire length of the glass bulb.

Abstract: A lavatory seat device includes lavatory seat accommodating a heater and a thermo-sensor for detecting a temperature thereof. First lead wires supply an electric current to the heater. Second lead wires convey a signal from the thermo-sensor. A control circuit controls the heater in response to the thermo-sensor in such a manner that the current supply of the heater is interrupted when the signal from the thermo-sensor becomes a set value or the cutting of the second lead wires is detected. A case has the control circuit therein. A first pivot portion of the lavatory seat has a hole through which the first and second lead wires extend. A second pivot portion of the case is fitting with the first pivot portion to pivot the lavatory seat. A holder holds the first and second lead wires in such a manner that the cutting of the first lead cannot occur prior to the cutting of the second lead wire.

Abstract: A pulse generating circuit is provided for generating a pulse having a time width synchronized with an input pulse and corresponding to a reference voltage. The circuit is particularly designed not to be affected by parasitic capacitance. A circuit for charging one electrode of an integrating circuit with a constant current is controlled by turning on or off a switch in response to the input pulse. The other electrode of the integrating capacitor is connected with a reference voltage source by driving a switch in response to a pulse having a pulse width which contains the time period of the input pulse and which is wider than the input pulse. A comparator is provided for comparing the potential at one electrode of the integrating capacitor and ground potential. A desired pulse is generated by a logic circuit which is receives both the output of the comparator and the input pulse.

Abstract: For realizing a stabilized current source circuit providing a stabilized current which is insensitive to a change in the threshold voltage of a MOS transistor, a gate electrode of a first MOS transistor feeding a drain current as a constant current output is supplied with the sum of the gate-source voltage of a second MOS transistor and the potential of a stabilized voltage source.
