Abstract
A multifunctional tap comprises two parts including a base section 2 and a top section 1, the base section being permanently fixed to the appliance surface 3 and adapted to receive the top section. Preferably, fitting of a new or replacement top section is completed from above the tap, requiring no specialist tools or knowledge and providing a quick and easy DIY task. Preferably, the connection between the top and base parts is a push fit, using a splined member (8A, 8B, Fig 2) in the base 2 which inserts into a spline receiving member (9A/9B, Fig 3) in the top part 1. Different embodiments of the completed tap include fixed or rotating spouts, a variety of connections, flexible hoses, automatic or manual control, and single or multiple supplies. Additional controls may be incorporated within the tap base and/or top parts or in the tap supplies.
Description
241 6821
DESCRIPTION
GENERAL BACKGROUND
TAPS FOR THE CONVEYANCE OF FLUIDS IN MOST ASPECTS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN MADE AS ONE
COMPLETE ITEM AND REPLACEMENT IS AGAIN AS ONE COMPLETE ITEM.
TAP BODIES ARE GENERALLY SEALED IN PLACE WITH VARIOUS COMPOUNDS OR SEALANTS
WITH A FLAT OR OTHER TYPE WASHER SECURED IN PLACE ON TO THE THREADED TAP TAIL
FROM BENEATH, WITH A SCREWED BACK NUT, NOT AN EASY TASK WITH OTHER METHODS PROVING TO BE JUST AS AWKWARD.
SOME TAPS ARE INSTALLED IN INACCESSIBLE PLACES, SO THE APPLIANCE HAS TO BE REMOVED FIRST TO GAIN ACCESS TO REPLACE THE TAPS, CORNER BATHS AND WALL HUNG SANITARYWARE ARE TWO EXAMPLES.
IN OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES WHEN A REPLACEMENT TAP/S ARE REQUIRED, THE RESTRICTIVE ACCESS TO THE TAP BASE AND TAIL/S BENEATH THE APPLIANCE IS ANOTHER PROBLEM. EVEN WHEN UNIT DOORS, SHELVES OR BATH PANELS HAVE BEEN REMOVED, DISCONNECTION AND REMOVAL OF THE TAPS THEMSELVES IN MOST CIRCUMSTANCES, IS TIME CONSUMING AND
CARE HAS TO BE TAKEN NOT TO DAMAGE THE APPLIANCE OR SURROUNDING SURFACES AND
SUPPLY PIPES
ONE OR SOMETIMES, TWO QUALIFIED PERSONS ARE REALISTICALLY REQUIRED TO PERFORM THESE TASKS WITH SPECIAL TOOLS, EQUIPMENT AND KNOWLEDGE, REQUIRED TO DISCONNECT, RECONNECT AND FINALLY TEST THE TAP AND SUPPLY PIPE{S} CONNECTIONS
A PERSONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY INJURY IS COMMON BECAUSE OF THE AWKWARD WORKING
POSTIONS AND CONDITIONS OF ACCESS TO AND UNDERNEATH APPLIANCES.
THIS MULTIFUNCTIONAL DEVICE, SOLVES THE REPLACMENT TAP PROBLEM OF FINDING AN AVAILABLE TRADES PERSON, IN THIS TIME OF A BIG SHORT FALL OF PLUMBERS AVAILABLE AND THEN THE CONSEQUENT HIGH LABOUR COSTS AND WAITING TIMES, PARTICULARY FOR
DOMESTIC AND HOUSING STOCK MAINTENANCE MARKETS
THIS DEVICE MAKES THE FITTING OF NEW TAPS EASY AND THE REPLACEMENT OF DEFECTIVE
TAP TOPS, A QUICK AND SIMPLE DIY TASK WORKING FROM ABOVE THE APPLIANCE ONLY, WHICH REQUIRES NO SPECIAL TOOLS, KNOWLEDGE OR ABILITY, MAKING THE TAP REPLACEMENT, AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY TASK.
IDEALLY IT SHOULD HELP TOWARDS AN ENVIRONMENT ISSUE ALSO, BY CUTTING DOWN THE
RESPONSE AND REPAIR TIMES FOR DEFECTIVE WATER TAPS TO BE REPLACED AND SO REDUCING
WATER WASTAGE
ONCE THE TAP BASE SECTION HAS BEEN DROPPED THROUGH THE APPLIANCE HOLE, THE 1ST FIX INSTALLATION IS COMPLETED BY HAND ONLY FROM BENEATH THE APPLIANCE, LEAVING IT READY FOR SYSTEM CONNECTION, FILLING AND TESTING
THE LATTER WOULD ALLOW FOR CIRCUMSTANCES THAT COULD PERMITT A DELAYED DECISION
ON THE DESIGN OF THE TAP TOP, UNTILLTHE FINAL COMPLETION OR HAND OVER OF A NEW
REFURBISHED PROPERTY IS IMMINENT THE TAP BODY COULD INCORPORATE A WASTE FITTING
CONTROL
THE OUTLET/S COULD BE SINGLE OR MULTIPLE WITH FIXED OR ROTATING SPOUT SEPARATING
OR BLENDING THE FLUIDS BEFORE DISPERSAL THE OUTLET COULD BE OF A DESIGN WITH
SPECIFIC FITTING ATTATCHMENT
THE TAP BODY TOP AND/OR OUTLET COULD BE OF JUST A FlJNCTlONAL DESIGN OR WITH AESTHETIC ATTRACTIVE, FASHIONABLE DESIGN CONTROLS CAN BE MANUAL OR AUTOMATIC. THESE COULD BE INCORPORATED IN THE TAP SUPPLIES AND/OR IN THE TAP BODY SECTIONS OR A MIX OF THE TWO.
THIS DESIGN COULD ADAPT TO MANY TYPES OF TAP DESIGN OR MECHANISMS
CONTROLS COULD BE REQUIRED FOR,
TO ISOLATE THE TAP SUPPLES MANUALLY BY HAND
TO ISOLATE THE TAP SUPPLIES AUTOMATICALLY BY SOME TYPE OF SPRING LOADED BAYONET

A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT {PILLAR TAP} WILL NOW BE DESCRIBED WITH REFERENCE TO THE
ACCOMPANYING DRAWINGS
NOTE: REFERENCES TO DRAWINGS WILL BE e.g. { 1/4-1} DRAWING 1/4 2/4 3/4 4/4 AT THE TOP OF EACH DRAWING SHEET & THE DRAWING PART NUMBER I TO 11 ARROWED TO A SPECIFIC PART OF A DRAWING.
I ST FIX STAGE APPLIANCE AND OTHER SURFACE AREAS VARY IN THICKNESS, { 1/43} SO THE TAP BASE ALLOWES FOR THIS BY HAVING LONG ENOUGH TAIL PIPE{ S} FOR ALL EVENTUALITIES. THE TAIL PIPE{S} COULD BE DESIGNED SO THEY COULD BE CUT DOWN IN LENGHIF REQUIRED. {1/4-6A} {414-6A} THE TAP BASE { 1/4-2} { 1/4-6A} IS DESIGNED TO BE FIXED EASILY IN ANY POSITION AND STILL ACCEPT THE TAP TOP WITH EASE IN IT'S CORRECT POSITION LATER. A RING OF SILOCAN
SEALANT IS APPLIED AROUND THE APPLIANCE TAP HOLE BEFORE THE TAP BODY BASE IS FIXED
IN POSITION, TO SEAL THE JOINT AND FIX THE TAP IN PLACE {2/4-12}. AFTER THE TAP BASE HAS BEEN DROPPED THROUGH THE APPLIANCE SURFACE { 1/4-3} HOLE FROM ABOVE THE FIXING PROCESS IS COMPLETED FROM BELOW ONLY1 USING TWO HANDS TO FIX IN PLACE THE SPACING WASHER/S { 1/4-4} AND THEN THE FLAT WASHER { 1/4-5} WHICH IS SECURED IN PLACE ON THE SMOOTH FINISHED TAILPIPE { 1/4-6A} BY THE PUSH FIT BACK NUT { 1/4-7} THE LENTH OF THE TAIL PIPE { 1/4-6A} OVERCOMES THE PREVIOUS PROBLEMS OF ACCESS TO
AND INTO THE RESTRICTED SPACE DIRECTLY BENEATH THE TAP FIXING POINT UNDER THE
APPLIANCE OR WORK TOP SURFACE. IN THIS CASE BY FIXING IN PLACE THE REQUIRED NUMBER OF SUPPLIED RUBBER SPACING WASHERS [1/4- 4}TO TAKE UP THE RESTRICTED SPACE AREA, TO
A POINT WHERE ACCESS IS NOT RESTRICTED FOR FIXING THE FLAT WASHER AND PUSH FIT
BACKNUT. { 1/4-7} {4/4-7} FOR THE FINAL FIXING IN PLACE.
THE TAIL PIPE COULD BE CUT IF A REDUCTION IN LENGTH IS REQUIRED FOR COSMETIC
REASONS
THE TAIL PIPE CONNECTION/S {4/4-6A} WOULD THEN BE READY FOR THE CONNECTION OF THE SUPPLY PIPE/S BY PUSH FIT FITTING/S {4/4-11}.
SYSTEM PRESSURE TESTING COULD BE DONE AT ANY STAGE TEMPORARY TAP BODY TOP
SECTIONS TO ASSIST WITH IST FIX FILLING, VENTING AND PRESSURE TESTING, WOULD BE AVAILABLE.
2ND FIX STAGE THE FIXING OF THE TAP TOP BODY, ONTO THE PERMANENTLY FIXED
TAP BOTTOM BODY IS COMPLETED FROM ABOVE THE APPLIANCE ONLY
IF CIRCUMSTANCES PERMITTED, A DELAY FOR THE DECISION OF
THE TOP BODY SECTION DESIGN COULD BE LEFT UNTIL FINAL COMPLETION IS REQUIRED OR
THE HAND OVER OF A NEW OR REFURBISHED PROPERTY IS IMMINENT.
THE TASK IS COMPLETED FROM ABOVE THE APPLIANCE BY USING A PUSH FIT CONNECTION
CORRESPONDING MALE AND FEMALE VERTICAL COGGE/GROOVE CONNECTION, { 1/4-2} {214-8A & 8B} {3/4-9A & 9B} ALLOW FOR A MULTIPLE-CHOICE OF POSITIONS AVAILABE FOR THE CORRECT
POSITIONING AND LOCATION OF THE TAP TOP BODY
A SEALING 'O' RING WASHER {3/4-lOA} IN THE TAP TOP MAKES A WATERTIGHT CONNECTION FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL SUPPLY, IN BETWEEN THE TAP TOP AND TAP BOTTOM
FINALLY TWO GRUB SCREWS IN THE TAP TOP ARE TIGHTENED INTO A CORRESPONDING GROOVE
IN THE TAP BASE {2/4-8A} {3/4-lOB}
