Description

本発明は、マンションや一戸建の家屋にガス及び水道を夫れ夫れの本管より分岐して配管するための分岐点における計量器回りの配管ユニットに関する。 The present invention relates to a piping unit around a measuring instrument at a branch point for branching and piping gas and water from their mains to an apartment or a detached house.

従来、マンションや一戸建家屋の各家庭に都市ガスや水道を配管するには、各本管から分岐させてガス計量器や量水器を介して屋内に配管する配管工事が各々の専門業者によって別個に行われており、かなりの労力と時間を要していた。 Conventionally, in order to plumb city gas and water to each house in a condominium or detached house, piping work that branches from each main pipe and pipes indoors via a gas meter or water meter is performed by each specialist. It was done separately and took considerable effort and time.

この点、下記［特許文献１］には、重複作業を含む現場施工の手間が省ける計量器として、集合住宅の設備共用配管（本管）と住宅内配管との分岐箇所に、ガス計量器や量水器、更には積算電力計等の計量器を設けるための計量器集合ユニットの技術が開示されている。 In this regard, the following [Patent Document 1] includes a gas meter and a meter at the branch point between the common pipe (main pipe) of the housing complex and the pipe in the house as a measuring instrument that saves the trouble of on-site construction including duplication work. A technique of a measuring unit assembly unit for providing a measuring device such as a water meter and an integrating wattmeter is disclosed.

図４は［特許文献１］の計量器集合ユニットＡの構造を示す斜視図である。本図において、集合住宅の設備共用配管と住宅内配管との分岐箇所に設けられる計量器集合ユニットＡは、分岐箇所に設置可能な計量器支持体３０に、設備共用配管（ガス本管）への接続配管３１と住宅内への接続配管３２とを有するガス計量器３３、設備共用配管（水道本管）への接続配管３４と住宅内への接続配管３５とを有する量水器３６、本線への接続線３７と住宅内への屋内配線３８とを有する電力量計３９を固定設置するとともに、前記ガス計量器３３と量水器３６と電力量計３９との計量器支持体３０への取り付け位置が前記分岐箇所の計量器取り付け位置に合わせられていることを特徴とする。 FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing the structure of the measuring instrument assembly unit A of [Patent Document 1]. In this figure, the measuring instrument assembly unit A provided at the branching point between the facility common pipe and the residential pipe of the apartment house is connected to the meter support body 30 that can be installed at the branch point to the equipment common pipe (gas main). Meter pipe 33 having a connection pipe 31 and a connection pipe 32 to the house, a water meter 36 having a connection pipe 34 to the equipment common pipe (water main) and a connection pipe 35 to the house, main line A watt hour meter 39 having a connection line 37 to the house and an indoor wiring 38 to the house is fixedly installed, and the gas meter 33, the water meter 36 and the watt hour meter 39 are connected to the meter support 30. The mounting position is adjusted to the measuring instrument mounting position at the branch point.

しかしながら、前記計量器集合ユニットＡは、直方体形状の枠組み構造の計量器支持体３０に対して、ガス計量器３３や量水器３６等の計量器が現場での設置工事前に予め設けられ固定されており、現場での位置の再調整が出来ない融通性に欠けるものとなっており、且つ全体として大型となってスペースを大きく取ってしまい、運搬・保管のコストも高くなって実用性に乏しいという難点がある。 However, the measuring unit assembly unit A is fixed to the measuring unit support 30 having a rectangular parallelepiped frame structure, in which measuring units such as the gas measuring unit 33 and the metering unit 36 are provided in advance before installation work on site. It is not flexible enough to re-adjust the position in the field, and it becomes large as a whole, taking up a lot of space, increasing the cost of transportation and storage, making it practical. There is a drawback that it is scarce.

仮に、建築物の設計段階で前記ガスや水道の本管からの分岐箇所が正確に定まっており、予め計量器の適正位置が定まっている場合は、上記計量器集合ユニットＡでも対応可能であるが、ガス、水道の分岐箇所での配管は住宅によって適正配置が様々の状況に変化するのが通常であって、予め取り付け位置を合わせるといっても、計量器回りの配管は現場において設置位置に融通性を持って施工できることが強く要請されるのである。 If the branch point from the gas and water mains is accurately determined at the design stage of the building, and the appropriate position of the measuring instrument is determined in advance, the measuring instrument assembly unit A is also available. However, the proper arrangement of pipes at gas and water branch locations varies depending on the house, and the pipes around the meter are installed at the site even if the installation positions are adjusted in advance. Therefore, it is strongly required to be able to construct with flexibility.

また、現実にはガス計量器３３や量水計３６の取り付け施工は、法規上、各専門業者のみが実施可能であって、予め上記のような計量器集合ユニットＡとしてセットし準備することは出来ない。 Moreover, in reality, the installation of the gas meter 33 and the water meter 36 can be carried out only by specialists in accordance with the laws and regulations. I can't.

本発明は上記事情に鑑みてなされたものであり、現場における水道及びガスの本管からの分岐箇所の種々の設置条件に対応してガス及び水道の計量器回りの配管を迅速且つ適正に施工できるコンパクトで融通性に富む組み立て式の一体型配管ユニットを提供することを目的とする。 The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and pipes around gas and water meters are installed quickly and appropriately in response to various installation conditions at branch points from the water and gas mains in the field. An object of the present invention is to provide an assembly-type integrated piping unit that is compact and flexible.

本発明は、固定手段によって床面に垂設される平行な２本の支柱と該支柱に高さ調整手段によって高さ調整可能に水平に横架された梁とを有する薄板金属製の枠体と、前記枠体に対して高さ調整可能に水平に固定された水道管固定用アタッチメント及びガス管固定用アタッチメントと、量水器を取り付けるスペースを設けつつ前記量水器と連結されるように前記水道管固定用アタッチメントに固定されたバルブ付減圧弁及び継手を備える量水器回りの水道配管と、ガス計量器を取り付けるスペースを設けつつ前記ガス計量器と連結する継手と開閉弁を備えて前記ガス管固定用アタッチメントに固定されたガス計量器回りのガス配管と、を備えることを特徴とするガス及び水道の計量器回り一体型配管ユニットを提供することにより、上記課題を達成する。 The present invention relates to a thin metal frame having two parallel struts suspended from a floor surface by fixing means and a beam horizontally mounted on the struts so as to be adjustable in height by height adjusting means. And a water pipe fixing attachment and a gas pipe fixing attachment that are horizontally fixed so as to be height-adjustable with respect to the frame, and a space for mounting the water meter so as to be connected to the water meter.

The length is arbitrary, but considering the convenience of handling and the appropriate range of the installation height of the measuring instrument, substantially 110 cm to 170 cm is preferable.

上記梁２ａ、２ｂは支柱１ａ、１ｂを所定間隔で強固に連結したり、ガス管固定用アタッチメント６を固定するためのである。上記梁２ａ、２ｂは支柱と同様の金属製である。 The beams 2a and 2b are used to firmly connect the columns 1a and 1b at a predetermined interval or to fix the gas pipe fixing attachment 6. The beams 2a and 2b are made of the same metal as the column.

上記梁２ａ、２ｂの高さ調整手段Ｋ２は、例えば、図１に示されるように、支柱１ａ、１ｂの外側に嵌合して摺動する断面コの字形の梁２ａ、２ｂを取り付けた部材２７を、支柱１ａ、１ｂのスリット部２６を通して任意の高さでボルト／ナット２５で水平に固定されるようにした構造が採用される。 For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the height adjusting means K2 of the beams 2a and 2b is a member to which beams 2a and 2b having a U-shaped cross section are fitted and slid on the outer sides of the columns 1a and 1b. A structure is adopted in which 27 is horizontally fixed with bolts / nuts 25 at an arbitrary height through the slit portions 26 of the columns 1a and 1b.
