Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3315677A1] A sanitary cleaning device includes heat exchanger (700), cleaning water nozzle (831), foam generation unit (560) for generating cleaning foam, spray nozzle (550) for discharging cleaning water or cleaning foam, spray nozzle drive unit (550a) for driving and rotating the spray nozzle (550), opening and closing valve (530a) for opening and closing a branch passage to spray nozzle (550), and control unit (130). Spray nozzle (550) is mounted on a body such that rotation axis Ax of spray nozzle (550) is inclined in a front-back direction and right-left direction. In the front-back direction, the rotation axis is inclined such that a lower side of the rotation axis is inclined to the front side of the toilet bowl. In the right-left direction, the rotation axis is inclined such that the lower side of the rotation axis is inclined to cleaning water nozzle (831). As a result, a foam film is formed on the inner surface of the toilet bowl, ranging from its front part to its rear part, to prevent adhesion of dirt.
