Abstract: A remote control device includes operation buttons, detectors, a power generator, a controller, and an output unit. The operation buttons are movable between an ordinary position and a lowermost position and are configured to move from the ordinary position to the lowermost position in response to a push operation. The detectors are configured to detect the respective push operation of the operation buttons. The power generator is configured to generate a power in response to the push operation. The controller is driven by the power. The controller is configured to determine the pushed operation button based on a detection result of the detectors. The controller remotely controls a toilet device by transmitting a wireless signal toward the toilet device. The wireless signal corresponds to the determined operation button. The output unit is configured to produce an output when the power generator has generated the power.

Abstract: A remote control device according to an embodiment includes an operation button, a generator, an electrical storage part, electronic paper, and a controller. The operation button is for remotely operating a wet-area device. The generator generates electrical power by utilizing energy when the operation button is pressed. The electrical storage part stores the electrical power generated by the generator; the electronic paper displays a setting state of the wet-area device. The controller controls a refresh and a display-switching of the electronic paper by utilizing the electrical power stored in the electrical storage part. The operation button is marked with information showing a function of the operation button. The controller performs the refresh in the case where the function is not realized when the operation button is pressed.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a remote control apparatus for a toilet seat apparatus which generates electric power by a user's pressing operation, the remote control apparatus being capable of balancing operability and the ability to reliably stop water spray at a high level.When a cleansing button MB2, being a button other than a stop button MB1, is pressed, a slide member 10 receives force F2′ at a branch 13a. When the branch 13a slides in a direction indicated by an arrow A2, a main part 11 also slides in a direction indicated by an arrow A1. A power generation unit GU generates electric power using mechanical energy input by a pressing force of an output part 14 of the slide member 10. When the stop button MB1 is pressed, the slide member 10 receives force F2 at a stop input part 12 and slides in the direction indicated by an arrow A1. At this time, a loss in the mechanical energy caused until it is transferred to the power generation unit GU by the slide member 10 is smaller than that caused as a result of the pressing operation of the cleansing button MB2.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a remote control apparatus for a toilet seat apparatus which generates electric power by a user's pressing operation, the remote control apparatus being capable of balancing design quality and transmission accuracy of a signal at a high level.A remote control apparatus RC has a main button group MB, including a water spray button WB and a water stop button MB1, and a sub-button group SB, including a stronger button SB1, etc. Each button in the sub-button group SB has a circular shape with a diameter smaller than that of each button in the main button group MB from a front view. When a button in the main button group MB is pressed, mechanical energy is transferred to a power generation unit GU by a first slide member 10 and a second slide member 20. On the other hand, when a button in the sub-button group SB is pressed, mechanical energy is transferred only by the second slide member 20 and a loss in the mechanical energy in such situation is smaller than the situation where a button in the main button group MB is pressed.
