Description

本発明は、樹脂管を接続する配管用継手と、該配管用継手に樹脂管を接続した継手構造に関する。   The present invention relates to a pipe joint for connecting a resin pipe and a joint structure in which a resin pipe is connected to the pipe joint.

合成樹脂よりなる合成樹脂管や、適宜の補強層を備えた補強層付き樹脂管(例えば中間層をアルミニウム合金層としその両側にポリエチレン層を積層した金属複合樹脂管)は、給水給湯配管やファンコイルユニットと冷温水管の接続などに広く用いられている。近年、給水給湯設備やファンコイルユニットは、省スペースや小型化が進み、該配管設備の配管においては、設置するスペースが小さくなり、より小スペースで施工可能な配管構造にする必要がある。   Synthetic resin pipes made of synthetic resin and resin pipes with reinforcement layers with appropriate reinforcement layers (for example, metal composite resin pipes with an intermediate layer made of an aluminum alloy layer and polyethylene layers laminated on both sides) are used for water supply and hot water supply pipes and fans Widely used for connecting coil units and cold / hot water pipes. In recent years, water supply and hot water supply facilities and fan coil units have been reduced in space and reduced in size, and in the piping of the piping facilities, it is necessary to reduce the installation space and to make a piping structure that can be constructed in a smaller space.

樹脂管の接続に用いられる管継手としては、圧縮式継手、締め込み式継手、差し込み式継手などがある。これらの継手の内、製品の単価、接続部の信頼性、施工性等を総合的に考慮して、圧縮式継手が用いられることが多い。圧縮式継手は管口径の大小によらず上記性能を安定的に発現する管継手である。   Examples of pipe joints used for connecting resin pipes include compression joints, tightening joints, and plug-in joints. Of these joints, compression joints are often used in consideration of the unit price of products, the reliability of connection parts, workability, and the like. The compression joint is a pipe joint that stably exhibits the above performance regardless of the pipe diameter.

第7図に従来の圧縮継手の一例を示す(特開2006−125523)。この圧縮継手1は、筒状の本体部の外周に鍔状部7が一体に設けられ、この鍔状部7に圧縮リング6が嵌着されている。圧縮リング6は管接続部2と同軸状となっている。この管接続部2と該圧縮リング6との間の隙間に樹脂管Pを挿入し、圧縮リング6を専用工具を用いて圧縮(カシメ)する。そうすると、管接続部2の外周に装着された止水パッキン4に対し樹脂管Pの内面が強く押し付けられて、樹脂管Pが固定されると共に、止水性能が得られる。この従来例においては、圧縮リング6と配管用圧縮継手本体部とが別体である。圧縮リング6は、その基端側が鍔状部7の内周側の周回溝5にきつく嵌め込まれて配管用圧縮継手本体部に取り付けられている。   FIG. 7 shows an example of a conventional compression joint (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2006-125523). In the compression joint 1, a flange portion 7 is integrally provided on the outer periphery of a cylindrical main body portion, and a compression ring 6 is fitted to the flange portion 7. The compression ring 6 is coaxial with the pipe connection 2. The resin pipe P is inserted into the gap between the pipe connecting portion 2 and the compression ring 6, and the compression ring 6 is compressed (caulked) using a dedicated tool. If it does so, the inner surface of the resin pipe P will be strongly pressed with respect to the water stop packing 4 with which the outer periphery of the pipe connection part 2 was mounted | worn, the resin pipe P will be fixed, and water stop performance will be acquired. In this conventional example, the compression ring 6 and the piping compression joint main body are separate. The compression ring 6 is attached to the compression joint main body for piping by fitting the proximal end of the compression ring 6 tightly into the circumferential groove 5 on the inner peripheral side of the flange 7.

この圧縮継手にあっては、圧縮リング6をカシメるために大きなカシメ工具が必要である。また、圧縮リングとしても、高価なステンレス製品を用いることが必要であり、コスト高である。   In this compression joint, a large crimping tool is required to crimp the compression ring 6. Further, it is necessary to use an expensive stainless steel product as the compression ring, which is expensive.

特開平11−94168(特許3333435)には、袋ナットを用いた袋ナット継手が記載されている。この袋ナット継手は、金属部が大きく材料費が高い。また、袋ナットを締め付けるために大きなトルクを掛ける必要があるなどの短所がある。   Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-94168 (Patent 3333435) describes a cap nut joint using a cap nut. This cap nut joint has a large metal part and a high material cost. In addition, there is a disadvantage that it is necessary to apply a large torque to tighten the cap nut.

特開2000−46282(特許2920146)には、ロックリングを用いた継手が記載されているが、部品点数が多い。また、挿入を確認するために透明樹脂を設けたり、覗き穴を設けたりする必要がある。   Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2000-46282 (Patent No. 2920146) describes a joint using a lock ring, but has a large number of parts. In addition, it is necessary to provide a transparent resin or a peephole to confirm insertion.

特開2007−263375には、先端側にOリングが装着され、基端側外周面に螺旋溝が設けられた差し込み継手に管部材を差し込むことが記載されているが、施工上、Oリングははずれやすい構造であり、Oリングがずれた場合、規定の止水性能が得られない。また、Oリングがずれても確認することができない。   Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2007-263375 describes that a pipe member is inserted into an insertion joint in which an O-ring is attached to the distal end side and a spiral groove is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the proximal end side. The structure is easy to come off, and when the O-ring is slipped, the specified water stop performance cannot be obtained. Further, even if the O-ring is displaced, it cannot be confirmed.

継手に樹脂管を接続する際、継手が回転しないように、かつ樹脂管を押し込む力に対しても耐えるようにして接続する必要があるが、継手の保持にスパナなどを用いると、樹脂管を押し込む力に対しては継手を保持することが難しい。   When connecting a resin pipe to the joint, it is necessary to connect the joint so that the joint does not rotate and withstand the force of pushing the resin pipe, but if a spanner or the like is used to hold the joint, the resin pipe It is difficult to hold the joint against the pushing force.

また、配管用継手に角度が付いている(例えばエルボ継手など)場合、樹脂管を回転しながら押し込んだ場合、継手に樹脂管を最後まで押し込んだ時の継手角度が目的方向からずれてしまうことがある。このような場合に、配管や継手に大きな力を加えて継手の向きを強引に調整しようとすると、継手に負荷がかかり、継手が破損するおそれがある。
また、従来例では、管部材を差し込んだときにOリングが脱輪しても視覚することができなかった。
Also, if the piping joint has an angle (for example, elbow joint), when the resin pipe is pushed in while rotating, the joint angle when the resin pipe is pushed into the joint to the end will deviate from the target direction. There is. In such a case, if a large force is applied to the pipe or the joint to forcefully adjust the direction of the joint, a load is applied to the joint and the joint may be damaged.
Further, in the conventional example, even when the O-ring is removed when the pipe member is inserted, it cannot be visually observed.

FIG. 6 is an enlarged sectional view of the pipe connecting portion.

この配管用継手10は、内孔10hを有した略々筒状であり、その一端側が配管接続部11となっており、他端側が機器接続部12となっており、両者の間が約45°の方向に屈曲した屈曲管部13となっている。屈曲管部13と配管接続部11との間に円形鍔部14が設けられている。屈曲管部13と機器接続部12との間にはフランジ15が設けられている。   This pipe joint 10 is substantially cylindrical with an inner hole 10h, one end side thereof is a pipe connection part 11, the other end side is a device connection part 12, and the gap between the two is about 45. The bent tube portion 13 is bent in the direction of °. A circular flange 14 is provided between the bent pipe portion 13 and the pipe connection portion 11. A flange 15 is provided between the bent tube portion 13 and the device connection portion 12.

円形鍔部14は、円形盤状であり、配管接続部11及び屈曲管部13より大径のフランジ形状となっている。この円形鍔部14の外周面には複数の凹穴14aが設けられている。凹穴14aは、円形鍔部14の周方向に一定間隔で複数個設けられている。   The circular flange 14 has a circular disk shape and has a flange shape larger in diameter than the pipe connection portion 11 and the bent pipe portion 13. A plurality of concave holes 14 a are provided on the outer peripheral surface of the circular flange 14. A plurality of the recessed holes 14 a are provided at regular intervals in the circumferential direction of the circular flange 14.

配管接続部11の先端側の外周面にはOリング19(第2図)の装着溝17が設けられ、基端側の外周面には、配管(この実施の形態では樹脂管)25を係止するための突部16が設けられている。   A mounting groove 17 for an O-ring 19 (FIG. 2) is provided on the outer peripheral surface on the distal end side of the pipe connecting portion 11, and a pipe (resin pipe in this embodiment) 25 is engaged on the outer peripheral surface on the proximal end side. A protrusion 16 for stopping is provided.

この実施の形態では、装着溝17は1条設けられているが、2条以上であってもよい。通常は1〜3条程度が好適である。   In this embodiment, one mounting groove 17 is provided, but two or more mounting grooves 17 may be provided. Usually, about 1-3 is suitable.

突部16は、配管接続部11の外周を周回する螺旋凸条よりなる。第6図の通り、この突部16の断面形状は、配管接続部11の先端側に向って縮径するテーパ状である。突部16と円形鍔部14との間は円筒面16b(第6図)となっている。突部16及び配管接続部11の好適な形状については、後に第6図を参照して詳細に説明する。   The protrusion 16 is formed of a spiral ridge that goes around the outer periphery of the pipe connection portion 11. As shown in FIG. 6, the cross-sectional shape of the protrusion 16 is a taper shape that decreases in diameter toward the distal end side of the pipe connection portion 11. A cylindrical surface 16b (FIG. 6) is formed between the protrusion 16 and the circular flange 14. The preferred shapes of the protrusion 16 and the pipe connection portion 11 will be described in detail later with reference to FIG.

機器接続部12にはOリング装着溝20が設けられ、Oリング21が装着されている。フランジ15の屈曲管部13側には、円形鍔部14と同一形状の円形盤部15aが一体に設けられている。この円形盤部15aの外径はフランジ15よりも小径であるが、屈曲管部13よりも大径である。円形盤部15aの外周面には、凹穴14aと同一形状、同一大きさ及び同一配列の凹穴15bが設けられている。   The device connection portion 12 is provided with an O-ring mounting groove 20 and an O-ring 21 is mounted. On the bent tube portion 13 side of the flange 15, a circular disk portion 15a having the same shape as the circular flange portion 14 is integrally provided. The outer diameter of the circular disk portion 15 a is smaller than that of the flange 15, but larger than that of the bent tube portion 13. Concave holes 15b having the same shape, the same size, and the same arrangement as the concave holes 14a are provided on the outer peripheral surface of the circular disk portion 15a.

樹脂管25は、この実施の形態では透明又は半透明の樹脂管よりなる。樹脂としてはポリオレフィン系が好適であり、具体的には架橋ポリエチレン、耐熱ポリエチレン、ポリブテンなどが好適である。   In this embodiment, the resin tube 25 is made of a transparent or translucent resin tube. As the resin, polyolefin is preferable, and specifically, crosslinked polyethylene, heat-resistant polyethylene, polybutene, and the like are preferable.

なお、配管用継手10は真鍮などの銅合金製とされてもよく、樹脂製とされてもよいが、外面が白色系など明度の高いものが好ましい。   The pipe joint 10 may be made of a copper alloy such as brass or may be made of resin, but a pipe having a high brightness such as a white outer surface is preferable.

樹脂管25を配管用継手10に接続するには、各装着溝17,20にOリング19,21を装着しておき、樹脂管25を配管接続部11にねじ込むようにして接続する。この接続に際しては、第4図及び第5図に示す接続工具30を円形鍔部14に装着し、継手10を回転させながら樹脂管30に配管接続部11をねじ込む。   In order to connect the resin pipe 25 to the piping joint 10, the O-rings 19 and 21 are mounted in the mounting grooves 17 and 20, and the resin pipe 25 is screwed into the pipe connection portion 11. In this connection, the connecting tool 30 shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 is attached to the circular flange 14, and the pipe connecting portion 11 is screwed into the resin pipe 30 while rotating the joint 10.

この接続工具30は、横長の略二等辺三角形型の板状であり、長辺の中間付近に切欠部31が設けられている。この切欠部31は、入口側が等幅の平行部31aであり、奥側は半円形部31bとなっている。この半円形部31bの内周面には複数個(この実施の形態では2個)の凸部31cが設けられている。第2図及び第5図の通り、この切欠部31を円形鍔部14に外嵌させ、凸部31cを凹穴14aに挿入する。これにより、接続工具30を介して継手10を回転させたり樹脂管25に押し込んだりすることが可能となっている。   This connecting tool 30 is a horizontally long, isosceles triangular plate shape, and a notch 31 is provided near the middle of the long side. The cutout portion 31 is a parallel portion 31a having an equal width on the entrance side, and a semicircular portion 31b on the back side. A plurality (two in this embodiment) of convex portions 31c are provided on the inner peripheral surface of the semicircular portion 31b. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 5, the notch 31 is externally fitted to the circular flange 14, and the convex portion 31c is inserted into the concave hole 14a. Thereby, the joint 10 can be rotated or pushed into the resin pipe 25 via the connection tool 30.

第5図のように接続工具30を装着した継手10の配管接続部11を樹脂管25に回転させながら押し込む。そして、樹脂管25の先端面が円形鍔部14の直近にまで達したときにそれ以上の回転を一旦停止し、機器接続部12の向きが機器側の受入口に合致するかチェックし、接続部12の向きが正確に受入口側の向きに合うように接続工具30を介して継手10を回し、接続部12の向きを微調整する。樹脂管25の先端面が円形鍔部14に当接する前に継手10の回転を停止していたので、この微調整に際して継手10をさらに樹脂管25への押し込み方向に回転させることができる。   As shown in FIG. 5, the pipe connection part 11 of the joint 10 to which the connection tool 30 is attached is pushed into the resin pipe 25 while being rotated. Then, when the tip surface of the resin tube 25 reaches the position closest to the circular flange 14, the rotation further stops, and it is checked whether the orientation of the equipment connecting portion 12 matches the receiving port on the equipment side. The joint 10 is turned via the connection tool 30 so that the direction of the portion 12 is accurately aligned with the direction of the receiving port side, and the direction of the connection portion 12 is finely adjusted. Since the rotation of the joint 10 was stopped before the front end surface of the resin tube 25 contacted the circular flange 14, the joint 10 can be further rotated in the direction of pushing into the resin tube 25 during this fine adjustment.

接続部12の向きの微調整が終了した後、継手10から接続工具30を取り外す。次いで、第8図に示すバンド40を樹脂管25の外周に装着し、樹脂管25を締め付けてその内周面に突部16を食い込ませる。なお、バンド40は予め樹脂管25の先端から所要距離(配管接続部11の長さ)以上離隔した箇所に外嵌させておき、樹脂管25を差し込んだ後、配管接続部11の基端側まで移動させる。   After the fine adjustment of the direction of the connecting portion 12 is completed, the connecting tool 30 is removed from the joint 10. Next, the band 40 shown in FIG. 8 is attached to the outer periphery of the resin tube 25, the resin tube 25 is tightened, and the protrusion 16 is bitten into the inner peripheral surface thereof. The band 40 is externally fitted in advance at a position separated from the distal end of the resin tube 25 by a required distance (the length of the pipe connection portion 11), and after the resin tube 25 is inserted, the base end side of the pipe connection portion 11 is inserted. To move.

このバンド40は、リング部41と、該リング部41の両端にそれぞれ設けられたつまみ部42,43とを有している。リング部11の一端側にはスリット44が周方向に延設され、リング部41の他端側の小幅の舌片部45が該スリット44内に入り込んでいる。この舌片部45の先端につまみ部43が設けられている。つまみ部42,43はリング部41の中心から離反する略々放射方向に立設されている。作業者がつまみ部42,43を指又は工具でつまんで接近方向に移動させることにより、リング部41が拡径する。つまみ部42,43から指又は工具を離すと、リング部41がそれ自身の弾性により縮径し、樹脂管25が締め付けられる。   The band 40 includes a ring portion 41 and knob portions 42 and 43 provided at both ends of the ring portion 41, respectively. A slit 44 extends in the circumferential direction on one end side of the ring portion 11, and a small tongue piece portion 45 on the other end side of the ring portion 41 enters the slit 44. A knob portion 43 is provided at the tip of the tongue piece portion 45. The knob portions 42 and 43 are erected in a substantially radial direction away from the center of the ring portion 41. The operator pinches the knob portions 42 and 43 with a finger or a tool and moves the knob portions 42 and 43 in the approaching direction, thereby expanding the diameter of the ring portion 41. When a finger or a tool is released from the knob portions 42 and 43, the ring portion 41 is reduced in diameter by its own elasticity, and the resin tube 25 is tightened.

なお、第8図では、リング部41は一重となっているが、二重環状となっている二重バンドを用いてもよい。   In FIG. 8, the ring portion 41 is single, but a double band having a double ring shape may be used.

このように樹脂管25と接続された継手10の機器接続部12を機器側の受入口(図示略)に差し込む。図示は省略するが、この実施の形態では該受入口側にもフランジ15と重なるフランジが設けられており、機器側のフランジと継手10のフランジ15とを重ね合わせ、配管接続クリップ(図示略)で両者を係合させることにより、継手10と機器との接続が行われる。   In this way, the device connecting portion 12 of the joint 10 connected to the resin pipe 25 is inserted into a receiving port (not shown) on the device side. Although not shown, in this embodiment, a flange that overlaps the flange 15 is also provided on the receiving side, and the flange on the equipment side and the flange 15 of the joint 10 are overlapped to form a pipe connection clip (not shown). Then, the coupling 10 and the device are connected by engaging the two.

この実施の形態では、接続工具30の凸部31cを円形鍔部14の凹穴14aに挿入するので、接続工具30を介して継手10に対し回転方向にもスラスト方向(押し込み方向)にも強く力を加えることができる。そのため、継手10と樹脂管25との接続を極めて容易に行うことができる。また、突部16(ネジ部)を円形鍔部14から若干離隔させて両者間に円筒面16bを設けているので、接続部11を樹脂管25にねじ込むときに樹脂管25の先端面が円形鍔部14に突き当る前に継手10の回転を停止させることができる。そのため、その後に継手10の向きを容易に微調整することができる。   In this embodiment, since the convex part 31c of the connection tool 30 is inserted into the concave hole 14a of the circular flange 14, the joint tool 30 is strong against both the rotational direction and the thrust direction (push-in direction) with respect to the joint 10. You can apply power. Therefore, connection between the joint 10 and the resin pipe 25 can be performed very easily. Further, since the projecting portion 16 (screw portion) is slightly separated from the circular flange portion 14 and the cylindrical surface 16b is provided therebetween, the distal end surface of the resin tube 25 is circular when the connecting portion 11 is screwed into the resin tube 25. The rotation of the joint 10 can be stopped before hitting the flange 14. Therefore, the direction of the joint 10 can be easily finely adjusted thereafter.

配管接続部11の好適な寸法例について第6図を参照して説明する。   A preferred dimension example of the pipe connecting portion 11 will be described with reference to FIG.

第6図の通り、配管接続部11のうち、Oリング装着溝17よりも奥側すなわち円形鍔部14側の外径Dは前側すなわち先端側の外径Dよりも大きい。これは、配管接続部11に配管30を差し込むときにOリング19が脱輪しないようにするためである。DとDとの差は0.1〜0.5mm特に0.1〜0.2mm程度が好ましい。 As shown in FIG. 6, the outer diameter D 1 on the back side of the O-ring mounting groove 17, that is, the circular flange portion 14 side, is larger than the outer diameter D 2 on the front side, that is, the front end side. This is to prevent the O-ring 19 from being removed when the pipe 30 is inserted into the pipe connecting portion 11. Difference between D 1 and D 2 are 0.1~0.5mm especially about 0.1~0.2mm are preferred.

突部16は、配管接続部11の外周を螺旋状に周回する凸条よりなる。隣接する突部16同士の間は円筒面16aとなっている。このように円筒面16aを設けた場合、円筒面16aに樹脂管25の内周面が接触し、止水性が向上する。   The protrusion 16 is formed of a ridge that spirals around the outer periphery of the pipe connection portion 11. A cylindrical surface 16a is formed between adjacent protrusions 16. When the cylindrical surface 16a is provided in this way, the inner peripheral surface of the resin tube 25 comes into contact with the cylindrical surface 16a, and the water stoppage is improved.

第6図では、突部16は、配管用継手10の軸心線方向の断面が三角形状であり、配管接続部11の先端側が傾斜の緩い斜面となっており、後端側が該軸心線と垂直に近い急斜面となっている。この実施の形態では、図のθは好ましくは45〜70°特に好ましくは約60°、θは好ましくは0〜45°特に好ましくは約15°である。合成樹脂製の配管用継手の場合、金属製の配管用継手に比べて角縁のシャープさが小さくなり、突部16の樹脂配管への食いつきが甘くなり、配管30が抜け易いので、上記のようにθを小さくして配管30の抜けを防止するようにしている。突部16同士の間のピッチPは、1.5〜2mm程度が好ましい。突部の高さhは0.3〜0.5mm程度が好ましい。 In FIG. 6, the protrusion 16 has a triangular section in the axial center direction of the pipe joint 10, the front end side of the pipe connecting part 11 is a slanted slope, and the rear end side is the axial center line. And it is a steep slope near the vertical. In this embodiment, θ 1 in the figure is preferably 45 to 70 °, particularly preferably about 60 °, and θ 2 is preferably 0 to 45 °, particularly preferably about 15 °. In the case of a synthetic resin pipe joint, the sharpness of the corner edge is smaller than that of a metal pipe joint, the biting of the protrusion 16 on the resin pipe is lessened, and the pipe 30 is easily removed. Thus, θ 2 is reduced to prevent the piping 30 from coming off. The pitch P between the protrusions 16 is preferably about 1.5 to 2 mm. The height h of the protrusion is preferably about 0.3 to 0.5 mm.

前述の通り、突部16と円形鍔部14との間は円筒面16bとなっている。最も円形鍔部14側の突部16から円形鍔部14までの距離は突部16同士の間のピッチPの1〜3倍、特に1.5〜2倍程度が好ましい。   As described above, the cylindrical surface 16b is formed between the protrusion 16 and the circular flange 14. The distance from the protrusion 16 on the most circular flange 14 side to the circular flange 14 is preferably 1 to 3 times, particularly about 1.5 to 2 times the pitch P between the protrusions 16.

この実施の形態において、屈曲管部13を設けたのは、樹脂管25を機器に接続する際の樹脂管25の湾曲度合い(ベンド)を小さくするためである。継手がストレートであると、樹脂管が大曲となり施工スペースを多くとる必要がある。無理に施工すると、樹脂管が座屈してしまう。なお、継手に曲げ力が加わると樹脂製の継手は折れたり破損しやすくなるため、継手には軸方向にリブを付けてもよい。上記実施の形態では、屈曲管部13は約45°の屈曲角度となっているが、90°など他の角度であってもよい。   In this embodiment, the bent pipe portion 13 is provided in order to reduce the degree of bending (bend) of the resin tube 25 when the resin tube 25 is connected to a device. If the joint is straight, the resin pipe becomes large and it is necessary to take a lot of construction space. If it is forcibly installed, the resin tube will buckle. In addition, when a bending force is applied to the joint, the resin joint is likely to be broken or damaged. Therefore, the joint may be provided with a rib in the axial direction. In the above-described embodiment, the bending tube portion 13 has a bending angle of about 45 °, but may be another angle such as 90 °.

第9図は90°屈曲させた継手10’の側面図、第10図は第9図のX−X線断面図であり、屈曲管部13’は90°に屈曲している。なお、この実施の形態では、屈曲管部13’にはリブ13rが設けられている。また、この実施の形態では、凹穴14a,15bはそれぞれ互いに平行方向に凹設されている。その他の構成は第1図〜第5図の継手10と同一であり、同一符号は同一部分を示している。   FIG. 9 is a side view of the joint 10 ′ bent 90 °, FIG. 10 is a cross-sectional view taken along line XX of FIG. 9, and the bent tube portion 13 ′ is bent 90 °. In this embodiment, a rib 13r is provided on the bent tube portion 13 '. Further, in this embodiment, the recessed holes 14a and 15b are respectively recessed in the parallel direction. Other configurations are the same as those of the joint 10 in FIGS. 1 to 5, and the same reference numerals indicate the same parts.

樹脂管25は前述の通り透明又は半透明のものであるので、Oリング19を透かして見ることができ、Oリング19に脱輪が生じていないかチェックすることができる。Oリング19の視認性を高くするために、継手10を白色系など明度の高い色合いのものとするのが好ましい。Oリングと継手との明度差が3以上であると、Oリングの視認性が良好となる。   Since the resin tube 25 is transparent or semi-transparent as described above, the O-ring 19 can be seen through, and it can be checked whether or not the O-ring 19 has been removed. In order to increase the visibility of the O-ring 19, it is preferable that the joint 10 has a lightness such as white. When the lightness difference between the O-ring and the joint is 3 or more, the visibility of the O-ring is good.

なお、マンセル明度サンプルを使用し、樹脂管の上から目視による位置確認性能評価を行った。
評価は、「明確に確認できる:○」、「確認できる:△」、「確認難しい:×」とし、評価した結果を表1に示す。
In addition, the Munsell lightness sample was used and the position confirmation performance evaluation by visual observation was performed from the top of the resin tube.
The evaluation was “clearly confirmed: ○”, “can be confirmed: Δ”, “difficult to confirm: ×”, and the evaluation results are shown in Table 1.

表1の通り、明度差が3以上であれば、目視による確認が可能となり、特に5以上であればより好ましく確認可能である結果が得られた。   As shown in Table 1, when the lightness difference is 3 or more, visual confirmation is possible, and when it is 5 or more, the result can be confirmed more preferably.
