Abstract (en)

[origin: US5206928A] A fluid heater and storage device for a bidet includes an electric heater (3) positioned inside a housing (1) in a lower portion thereof. The housing (1) has a connection side with an inlet opening (6) and an outlet opening (7) for the fluid to enter and exit the housing located in an upper portion of the connection side. An insert (10) is positioned in the upper portion the housing (1) adjacent to the inlet opening (6). The insert (10) receives input fluid from the inlet opening (6) and guides the fluid along the connection side towards the lower portion of the housing (1). The input fluid then flows across the bottom of the housing and is heated by the heater (3) as it flows the recross. The heated fluid then rises along the housing side opposite to the connection side towards the top of the housing and then back towards the connection side where it is separated from the input fluid by a wall (1c) in the upper portion of the housing (1) forming a passage for removing heated water from the upper portion of the housing (1) through outlet opening (7).
