A Western-style flush toilet equipped with a function device that can be raised to expose at least the bowl surface rear of the Western-style toilet body,
The base plate of the functional device is composed of a front base plate and a rear base plate, and the front base plate ascends vertically with respect to the rear base plate together with the main body cover, thereby exposing the rear of the bowl surface of the Western-style toilet body.
The rear base plate is provided with a concealing member for concealing the part or the space that may be exposed when the body cover is raised.
[0008]
In the Western-style flush toilet of the present invention, the concealing member conceals parts or spaces that can be exposed when the functional device is raised, so that the rear side of the bowl surface of the Western-style toilet body can be cleaned in this state. For this reason, water and the like do not come into contact with the parts and impair the performance of the parts, and fingers and cleaning tools are not caught in the space and the cleaning performance is not hindered. In particular, there is no danger of a short circuit or the like because water or the like does not contact the electrical components.
[0009]
Therefore, in the Western-style flush toilet of the present invention, the cleanability of the Western-style toilet body can be reliably improved without impairing the performance of the parts constituting the functional device.
[0010]
It is sufficient that the concealing member can conceal the part or space at least one of the front and side. This is because the Western-style toilet body is generally cleaned from at least one of the front and side.
[0011]
More preferably, the concealing member is capable of concealing parts or spaces all around. If it is like this, it is because the effect of this invention can be acquired even if it cleans a Western-style toilet body from which direction.
