ABSTRACT:
A water closet with a topical body washing mechanism including a water warmer mounted on the water closet and a spout pipe having a nozzle at the distal end therof for spouting warm water from the water warmer. The spout pipe is movable to and from an inoperative rest position within a bowl of the water closet, a second position advanced over the bowl to direct a jet of warm water toward the anus of the user and a third position further advanced over the bowl to direct a jet of warm water in a direction suitable for use as a bidet. An operating lever has a cam mounted on its rotational axis, the cam being contoured correspondingly to the second and third positions of the spout pipe to actuate a switch thereby starting a motor of a pump which sends forward warm water from the water warmer to the spouting nozzle. The electric circuit which includes the aforementioned motor and switch has in series a switching element and a delay circuit. When the motor switch is closed by the cam, the switching element is actuated starting the emission of water jets with a delay. Therefore, gushing of water at the second position is prevented when the spout pipe is shifted quickly from the first to the third position.
