PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a toilet seat device that can increase safety and a burden reduction effect of a toilet seat user when being seated to a toilet seat and unseated from the toilet seat.SOLUTION: A toilet seat device comprises: a pair of left and right supporting legs 1 with a toilet bowl 6 arranged on both sides thereof a pair of left and right lifting/lowering moving bodies 2 constituted in an extendable driving manner and attached to each supporting leg 1 in a forward tilted posture a toilet seat supporting material 8 attached astride the upper ends of the lifting/lowering moving bodies 2 a toilet seat 7 attached to the toilet seat supporting material 8 substantially in a horizontal posture and a link mechanism provided between the lifting/lowering moving body 2 and the toilet seat supporting material 8, permitting the lifting/lowering movement in the substantially horizontal posture of toilet seat 7 from a minimum extended position of the lifting/lowering moving body 2 to a middle extended position, while tilting the toilet seat 7 substantially from the horizontal posture to the forward tilting direction from the middle extended position to the maximum extended position. As a result, safety and a burden reduction effect of a toilet seat user in both cases when being seated to a toilet seat and unseated from the toilet seat are achieved.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2COPYRIGHT: (C)2019,JPO&INPIT【課題】便座への着座時と便座からの離座時における便座使用者の安全性と負担軽減効果をより一層高め得る便座装置を提供する。【解決手段】便器6をその両側配置された左右一対の支持脚1と、伸縮駆動可能に構成され前傾姿勢で各支持脚1に取り付けられた左右一対の昇降移動体2と、昇降移動体2の上端部間に跨って取り付けられた便座支持材8と、略水平姿勢で便座支持材8に取付けられた便座7と、昇降移動体2と便座支持材8の間に設けられて、昇降移動体2の最少伸長位置から中間伸長位置の間では便座7の略水平姿勢での昇降動を許容する一方、中間伸長位置から最大伸長位置の間では便座7を略水平姿勢から前傾方向に傾動させるリンク機構とで構成する。これにより、便座への着座動作時と便座からの離座動作時の双方において便座使用者の安全性と身体的な負担軽減が図られる。【選択図】図2
