Claim 0:
1. A washdown flush toilet comprising:
a bowl part configured to receive waste, and
a water discharge trap conduit connected to a lower portion of the bowl part,
wherein
the water discharge trap conduit includes:
an inlet pipe part whose one end is continuous or connected to the lower portion of the bowl part;
a trap ascending pipe part whose one end is continuous or connected to the other end of the inlet pipe part and which forms an ascending flow channel; and
a trap descending pipe part whose one end is continuous or connected to the other end of the trap ascending pipe part and which forms a descending flow channel,

with regard to a cross section perpendicular to a flow direction of the ascending flow channel, a portion on a downstream side of the ascending flow channel is provided with an enlarged part which has a cross section area larger than that on an upstream side of the ascending flow channel, and
a downstream end of the ascending flow channel and/or an upstream side of the descending flow channel is provided with a shrunk part which has a cross section area smaller than that on the upstream side of the ascending flow channel,
with regard to the cross section perpendicular to the flow direction of the ascending flow channel, at least a portion at a central region in a right and left direction of a top surface of the enlarged part of the ascending flow channel has a convex upward shape,
with regard to the cross section perpendicular to the flow direction of the ascending flow channel or the descending flow channel, at least a portion at a central region in a right and left direction of a top surface of the shrunk part has a convex upward shape, and
a bottom surface from the enlarged part to the shrunk part has a constant horizontal cross section shape,
the convex upward shape at the central region in the right and left direction of the top surface of the enlarged part has a curvature greater than a curvature at a central region in the right and left direction of the bottom surface of the enlarged part,
with regard to a cross section perpendicular to a flow direction of the enlarged part, a gap between right and left surfaces of the enlarged part is widened from the bottom surface of the enlarged part toward the top surface of the enlarged part, and
the trap descending pipe part has a region that extends diagonally downward, whose bottom surface is in a straight shape as seen from a lateral direction.
