  • Publication number: 20250053947
    Abstract: A payment terminal capable of performing payment using a code includes a first display unit; a second display unit; an imaging unit arranged near the first display unit and configured to capture an image of the code displayed on a medium; and a control unit configured to control the first display unit, the second display unit, and the imaging unit. The control unit acquires a captured image captured by the imaging unit, and causes a first preview image based on the captured image to be displayed on the first display unit while simultaneously causing a second preview image based on the captured image to be displayed on the second display unit.

  • Patent number: 12138641
    Abstract: The present invention is a water spouting apparatus (1) that discharges water with reciprocal motion, and has a water spouting apparatus body (10) and a oscillation generating element (22). The oscillation generating element includes a water supply conduit (24), a collision part (30) that generates a vortex on the downstream side, a vortex street conduit (26) provided downstream of the water supply conduit, and a discharge conduit that discharges water guided by the vortex street conduit. The vortex street conduit is configured by connecting the upstream member (18) on which the upstream side is formed and the downstream member (20) on which the downstream side is formed. At the connection between the upstream and downstream members, the height of the vortex street at the upstream end of the downstream member (H2) is higher than the height (H1) of the vortex street at the downstream end of the upstream member.

  • Publication number: 20240173728
    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.

  • Patent number: 10597857
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a toilet device includes a flush toilet, a toilet seat, a spray device, a detecting sensor, and a controller. The flush toilet includes a bowl. The bowl includes a flush region and a non-flush region. The controller executes a pre-mist mode and an after-mist mode. The pre-mist mode includes automatically controlling the spray device, spraying the mist onto the flush region and the non-flush region, and forming a water droplet or a water film by causing the mist to accumulate in the flush region and the non-flush region. The after-mist mode includes automatically controlling the spray device to rinse away the water droplet or the water film formed in the non-flush region in the pre-mist mode by increasing a volume of the water droplet or the water film.

  • Patent number: 10590639
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a toilet seat device includes a toilet seat, a sterilizer, a sprayer, a blower, and a controller. The sterilizer generates sterilizing water. The sprayer sprays a mist of the sterilizing water. The blower generates a rising air stream. The controller controls the sprayer to execute first and second processes and cause a total amount of the mist sprayed in the first process to be less than that in the second process. The first process and the second process are executed at different timing. The first process includes controlling the blower to generate a first rising air stream capable of lifting the mist toward the toilet seat. The second process includes the blower not generating the first rising air stream and not lifting the mist toward the toilet seat.

  • Patent number: 10584469
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a toilet seat device includes a toilet seat, a sterilizer, a sprayer, a blower, and a controller. The sterilizer generates sterilizing water. The sprayer sprays a mist of the sterilizing water into a flush toilet. The blower generates a rising air stream. The controller controls the sprayer to simultaneously generate first and second mists in a state in which the blower generates a first rising air stream. The first mist has a particle size liftable toward the toilet seat by the first rising air stream. The second mist is generated to have a particle size larger than that of the first mist and not to be lifted toward the toilet seat by the first rising air stream. The sprayer causes a total amount of the first mist to be less than that of the second mist.

  • Patent number: 10563388
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a toilet device includes a flush toilet, a toilet seat, a sterilizer, a sprayer, and a controller. The flush toilet includes a bowl and a rim. The sterilizer generates sterilizing water. The sprayer sprays a mist of the sterilizing water onto the bowl, the rim, and the toilet seat. The controller controls the sprayer to cause an average wetting amount per unit area at the toilet seat and the amount per unit area at an upper surface of the rim each to be smaller than the amount per unit area at the bowl and smaller than the amount per unit area at an inner wall surface of the rim for one time of performing a mist mode to spray the mist of the sterilizing water onto the bowl, the rim, and the toilet seat.
