Description

本発明は、水や湯等の液体を流通させる供給管や吐出管と、液体の流通・遮断や混合状態を切り換えるバルブ部と、を水栓本体の内部で接続する構成を備えた水栓装置および水栓装置の組立方法に関する。 The present invention is a faucet device having a configuration in which a supply pipe or a discharge pipe for flowing a liquid such as water or hot water and a valve portion for switching a liquid flow / shutoff or a mixed state are connected inside the faucet body. And how to assemble the faucet device.

従来、このような水栓装置に関連する技術としては、例えば以下の特許文献１に示すものがある。 Conventionally, as a technique related to such a faucet device, for example, there is one shown in Patent Document 1 below.

この水栓装置では、水道管等からの水を供給する水供給管４や、給湯器からの湯水を供給する湯供給管５等を、吐止水操作や混合操作を行う本体１０に接続する際に連結部材８が用いられる。この連結部材８は、水供給管４や湯供給管５と本体１０との間に介装される二枚の板状部材である。 In this faucet device, a water supply pipe 4 for supplying water from a water pipe or the like, a hot water supply pipe 5 for supplying hot water from a water heater, or the like is connected to a main body 10 for performing a water discharge stop operation or a mixing operation. Occasionally, the connecting member 8 is used. The connecting member 8 is two plate-shaped members interposed between the water supply pipe 4 or the hot water supply pipe 5 and the main body 10.

具体的には、水供給管４等の夫々の端部近傍にはフランジ部４２が形成されており、これらのフランジ部４２等が下部連結部材８２と上部連結部材８４とで挟持固定される。一方の下部連結部材８２には、各管４〜７の胴部の外径とほぼ同じ幅を持つ切欠が形成されている。他方の上部連結部材８４には、各管４〜７を挿入する孔部が所定の位置に形成されている。 Specifically, flange portions 42 are formed in the vicinity of the respective ends of the water supply pipe 4 and the like, and these flange portions 42 and the like are sandwiched and fixed between the lower connecting member 82 and the upper connecting member 84. On the other hand, the lower connecting member 82 is formed with a notch having a width substantially the same as the outer diameter of the body portion of each of the pipes 4 to 7. The other upper connecting member 84 is formed with holes for inserting the pipes 4 to 7 at predetermined positions.

つまり、各管４〜７が下部連結部材８２の切欠きに挿入された状態で所定位置に仮置きされ（図６）、各管４〜７の軸芯方向に沿って上部連結部材８４が挿入される。フランジ部４２等は下部連結部材８２と上部連結部材８４とで挟まれる状態に仮組みされる（図６、図７）。これにより、各管４〜７の相対位置が固定され、連結部材８に対する各管４〜７の軸芯方向に沿った出入りが規制される。 That is, each pipe 4 to 7 is temporarily placed at a predetermined position in a state of being inserted into the notch of the lower connecting member 82 (FIG. 6), and the upper connecting member 84 is inserted along the axial core direction of each pipe 4 to 7. Will be done. The flange portion 42 and the like are temporarily assembled so as to be sandwiched between the lower connecting member 82 and the upper connecting member 84 (FIGS. 6 and 7). As a result, the relative positions of the pipes 4 to 7 are fixed, and the entry / exit of the pipes 4 to 7 with respect to the connecting member 8 along the axial core direction is restricted.

こうして仮組みされた各管４〜７には、下方から筒状の台座１８が挿入され、台座１８および下部連結部材８２、上部連結部材８４と、これらを貫通する５本のネジによって各管４〜７が本体１０に固定される。 A cylindrical pedestal 18 is inserted into each of the pipes 4 to 7 temporarily assembled in this way, and each pipe 4 is provided by the pedestal 18, the lower connecting member 82, the upper connecting member 84, and five screws penetrating them. ~ 7 are fixed to the main body 10.

本構成であれば、予め連結部材８で仮組みした複数の管４〜７を本体１０に対して一度に連結することができ、各管４〜７の接続作業が簡単かつ確実に行えるというものである。 With this configuration, a plurality of pipes 4 to 7 temporarily assembled by the connecting member 8 can be connected to the main body 10 at a time, and the connection work of each pipe 4 to 7 can be easily and surely performed. Is.

特開２０１６−１９１２５３号公報Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2016-191253

この従来技術において、各管４〜７を固定するためのネジは各管４〜７の側から操作するようである。しかし、各管４〜７を挟持する下部連結部材８２と上部連結部材８４は、水栓本体の開口部からみて奥側に位置する。仮に、これらをネジ固定するためには、密集配置されている各管４〜７の間の空間を介して作業しなければならず、ネジ固定の作業が煩雑なものとなる。そのため、この従来技術では、水栓本体の内部に挿入される台座１８と、この台座１８に形成したネジ孔に挿通する長尺状のネジとを用いて各管４〜７が固定される。 In this prior art, the screws for fixing the tubes 4 to 7 seem to be operated from the side of the tubes 4 to 7. However, the lower connecting member 82 and the upper connecting member 84 that sandwich the pipes 4 to 7 are located on the back side of the opening of the faucet body. Temporarily, in order to fix these with screws, it is necessary to work through the space between the pipes 4 to 7 which are densely arranged, and the work of fixing the screws becomes complicated. Therefore, in this conventional technique, each pipe 4 to 7 is fixed by using a pedestal 18 inserted inside the faucet main body and a long screw inserted into a screw hole formed in the pedestal 18.

つまり、直接の固定対象である各管４〜７の他に台座１８と長尺状のネジが必要となる。そのためには台座１８の壁部にネジの挿通孔を加工する必要があり、壁部が厚くなる。この結果、水栓本体の内部空間が狭くなり、各管４〜７の配設空間が狭くなるという不都合や、逆に配設空間を広く確保した場合にはコンパクトな意匠が得られないといった不都合が生じる。 That is, a pedestal 18 and a long screw are required in addition to the pipes 4 to 7 to be directly fixed. For that purpose, it is necessary to make a screw insertion hole in the wall portion of the pedestal 18, and the wall portion becomes thick. As a result, the internal space of the faucet body becomes narrow, and the arrangement space of each pipe 4 to 7 becomes narrow, and conversely, if the arrangement space is widened, a compact design cannot be obtained. Occurs.

このように、従来の水栓装置では未だ解決すべき問題があり、組み立て作業が容易で意匠性に優れた水栓装置の提供が望まれている。 As described above, there are still problems to be solved with the conventional faucet device, and it is desired to provide a faucet device that is easy to assemble and has excellent design.

本発明に係る水栓装置の特徴構成は、
少なくとも一つの供給管と、
前記供給管から供給される液体についての流通・遮断状態および前記供給管が複数ある場合に夫々の供給管から供給される前記液体の混合状態を切り換えるバルブ部と、
前記バルブ部の下流に前記液体を吐出する吐出管と、
前記バルブ部の状態を切り変える操作部と、
前記吐出管の一部を内包するスパウトと、
前記供給管の一部が挿入される第１開口と、前記バルブ部が挿入される第２開口とが形成され、前記操作部および前記スパウトが取り付けられる水栓本体と、を有し、
前記供給管の端部近傍に係止部が設けられ、
前記供給管の端部が前記バルブ部に挿入接続されると共に、
前記第２開口から操作する固定部材によって、前記係止部と前記バルブ部との離間が阻止されるように構成された点にある。 (Characteristic composition)
The characteristic configuration of the faucet device according to the present invention is
With at least one supply pipe
A valve unit that switches between a flow / shutoff state for the liquid supplied from the supply pipe and a mixed state of the liquid supplied from each supply pipe when there are a plurality of the supply pipes.
A discharge pipe that discharges the liquid downstream of the valve portion,
An operation unit that switches the state of the valve unit and
A spout containing a part of the discharge pipe and
It has a first opening into which a part of the supply pipe is inserted, a second opening into which the valve portion is inserted, and a faucet main body to which the operation portion and the spout are attached.
A locking portion is provided near the end of the supply pipe, and a locking portion is provided.
The end of the supply pipe is inserted and connected to the valve, and
The point is that the fixing member operated from the second opening is configured to prevent the locking portion and the valve portion from being separated from each other.

（効果）
本構成のように、供給管を水栓本体の第１開口から挿入してバルブ部に接続し、第２開口から操作する固定部材によって供給管の固定が行えるものであれば、供給管の接続作業が容易となる。つまり、仮に供給管の端部に配置した固定部材を供給管の側から操作するものであれば、各管の長尺部が延出している状態では、水栓本体の内部において固定部材へのアクセスが困難となる。 (effect)
If the supply pipe can be fixed by inserting the supply pipe from the first opening of the faucet body and connecting it to the valve portion as in this configuration and using a fixing member operated from the second opening, the supply pipe can be connected. Work becomes easy. That is, if the fixing member arranged at the end of the supply pipe is operated from the side of the supply pipe, when the long part of each pipe is extended, the fixing member is attached to the fixing member inside the faucet body. Access becomes difficult.

しかし、固定部材の操作が第２開口から行える本構成では、バルブ部の形状が比較的コンパクトであって長尺状ではないことが多いため固定部材の操作が容易となる。 However, in this configuration in which the fixing member can be operated from the second opening, the shape of the valve portion is often relatively compact and not long, so that the fixing member can be easily operated.

また、第２開口を利用できることで、供給管等の接続作業のための別の開口を設ける必要がなく、水栓装置の意匠性が向上する。 Further, since the second opening can be used, it is not necessary to provide another opening for connecting the supply pipe or the like, and the design of the faucet device is improved.

さらに、第２開口にはバルブ部の操作部を取り付けることができるため、供給管等の接続作業が終了したのち固定部材を隠すことができる。これにより水栓装置の意匠性がさらに向上する。 Further, since the operation portion of the valve portion can be attached to the second opening, the fixing member can be hidden after the connection work of the supply pipe or the like is completed. This further improves the design of the faucet device.

（特徴構成）
本発明に係る水栓装置にあっては、前記バルブ部が、バルブ本体と、当該バルブ本体を包持した状態で前記水栓本体に内包されるケーシングと、を備え、供給管が前記ケーシングに固定される構成とすることができる。 (Characteristic composition)
In the faucet device according to the present invention, the valve portion includes a valve main body and a casing included in the faucet main body while holding the valve main body, and a supply pipe is provided in the casing. It can be a fixed configuration.

（効果）
本構成のように、バルブ部をバルブ本体とケーシングとに分割構成する場合、ケーシングは、例えば周囲の壁部が主となるように構成することができる。その結果、ケーシングの向う側にある供給管の係止部にアクセスする際に、固定部材はケーシングの比較的薄い壁部を貫通できればよい。よって供給管の固定作業が極めて容易となる。 (effect)
When the valve portion is divided into a valve body and a casing as in this configuration, the casing can be configured so that, for example, the surrounding wall portion is the main component. As a result, the fixing member only needs to be able to penetrate the relatively thin wall portion of the casing when accessing the locking portion of the supply pipe on the opposite side of the casing. Therefore, the work of fixing the supply pipe becomes extremely easy.

（特徴構成）
本発明に係る水栓装置としては、前記固定部材が、前記ケーシングを貫通するネジ部材と、前記ネジ部材が螺合可能な固定板と、を備え、前記固定板に、前記供給管が前記係止部における自身の延伸方向に対して直交する方向に挿入可能、且つ、前記係止部に係止可能な幅を持つ切欠きが形成されていると好都合である。 (Characteristic composition)
In the water faucet device according to the present invention, the fixing member includes a screw member penetrating the casing and a fixing plate into which the screw member can be screwed, and the supply pipe is engaged with the fixing plate. It is convenient that the locking portion is formed with a notch having a width that allows it to be inserted in a direction orthogonal to its own stretching direction at the stop portion.

（効果）
このような固定板を用いることで、供給管が所定の相対位置関係に固定される。このため、作業空間にあまり余裕のない水栓本体の内部に供給管を配置する際にも、供給管の位置が維持され、バルブ部の接続部に対する供給管の位置合わせが容易となる。よって、供給管の接続作業の効率が向上する。 (effect)
By using such a fixing plate, the supply pipe is fixed in a predetermined relative positional relationship. Therefore, even when the supply pipe is arranged inside the faucet main body where there is not much room in the work space, the position of the supply pipe is maintained, and the alignment of the supply pipe with respect to the connection portion of the valve portion becomes easy. Therefore, the efficiency of the connection work of the supply pipe is improved.

（特徴構成）
本発明に係る水栓装置にあっては、前記固定板が前記水栓本体と一体的に形成されていてもよい。 (Characteristic composition)
In the faucet device according to the present invention, the fixing plate may be integrally formed with the faucet body.

（効果）
固定板が水栓本体に一体形成されていれば、供給管の端部を極めて正確な位置に設定することができる。一方、バルブ部を水栓本体に配置する場合にも、水栓本体にバルブ部の設置位置を規定するガイド部等を形成することは容易であるから、バルブ部に設けた接続部を各管に対して確実に位置合わせすることができる。よって、本構成においても供給管等とバルブ部との接続作業の効率が向上する。 (effect)
If the fixing plate is integrally formed with the faucet body, the end of the supply pipe can be set at an extremely accurate position. On the other hand, even when the valve portion is arranged on the faucet body, it is easy to form a guide portion or the like that defines the installation position of the valve portion on the faucet body. Can be reliably aligned with. Therefore, even in this configuration, the efficiency of the connection work between the supply pipe and the like and the valve portion is improved.

（特徴構成）
本発明に係る水栓装置にあっては、前記供給管の端部が挿入され、これら供給管の相対位置を決定する位置決め部材を備えていると好都合である。 (Characteristic composition)
In the faucet device according to the present invention, it is convenient that the end portion of the supply pipe is inserted and a positioning member for determining the relative position of the supply pipe is provided.

（効果）
本構成の位置決め部材は、供給管を挿入する構成であり、位置決め部材に挿入された供給管は自身の軸芯方向に直角な方向への移動が規制される。よって、供給管の端部の位置がバルブ部の接続部に対してより正確に位置決めすることができる。 (effect)
The positioning member of this configuration is configured to insert a supply pipe, and the supply pipe inserted into the positioning member is restricted from moving in a direction perpendicular to its own axis direction. Therefore, the position of the end portion of the supply pipe can be more accurately positioned with respect to the connection portion of the valve portion.

たとえば、上記切欠きを有する固定板と併用する場合、固定板の切欠きに供給管を係入させたのち、供給管を当該位置決め部材に挿通する。これにより、供給管の相対位置が固定され、固定板が各管から脱落しなくなる。よって、固定板と供給管とを予め仮組して水栓本体の内部に挿入配置させる場合に、当該配置作業が確実なものとなり、水栓装置の組立作業が効率化される。 For example, when used in combination with the fixing plate having the notch, the supply pipe is inserted into the notch of the fixing plate, and then the supply pipe is inserted into the positioning member. As a result, the relative position of the supply pipe is fixed, and the fixing plate does not fall off from each pipe. Therefore, when the fixing plate and the supply pipe are temporarily assembled in advance and inserted and arranged inside the faucet main body, the arrangement work is assured and the assembling work of the faucet device is streamlined.

（特徴構成）
本発明に係る水栓装置にあっては、前記水栓本体が、前記供給管および前記吐出管が上下方向に配設される第１本体と、前記第１本体に対して外側に突出し前記バルブ部を内包する第２本体と、を備えており、前記供給管の端部および前記吐出管の端部が前記第２本体の側に向く屈曲部を備えた構成にすることができる。 (Characteristic composition)
In the faucet device according to the present invention, the faucet main body protrudes outward with respect to the first main body in which the supply pipe and the discharge pipe are arranged in the vertical direction and the valve. It is provided with a second main body including a portion, and can be configured to include a bent portion in which the end portion of the supply pipe and the end portion of the discharge pipe face the side of the second main body.

（効果）
本構成のように、バルブ部を水栓本体の外部に偏位させ、屈曲部を有する供給管等を接続する構成とすることで、水栓本体の内部において供給管および吐出管を挿通させる空間の形状がシンプルなものとなり、当該空間の確保が容易となる。 (effect)
As in this configuration, the valve portion is displaced to the outside of the faucet body and a supply pipe or the like having a bent portion is connected, so that a space through which the supply pipe and the discharge pipe can be inserted inside the faucet body. The shape of the is simple, and it becomes easy to secure the space.

また、各管を挿通する空間とバルブ部を設置する空間とがある程度独立し、各管とバルブ部との設置作業が別に行えるから、各管とバルブ部とを仮接続した状態で水栓本体の内部に挿入する必要はない。よって、夫々の空間の縮小が可能となり、水栓装置がコンパクトになるなど意匠性を高めることができる。 In addition, the space for inserting each pipe and the space for installing the valve part are independent to some extent, and the installation work for each pipe and the valve part can be performed separately. Therefore, the faucet body is temporarily connected to each pipe and the valve part. There is no need to insert it inside. Therefore, each space can be reduced, and the faucet device can be made compact and the design can be improved.

（特徴構成）
本発明に係る水栓装置にあっては、前記供給管および前記吐出管のうち前記屈曲部の近傍に当接し、前記供給管および前記吐出管が前記バルブ部から抜け出るのを防止する押え部材を前記第１本体の内部に設けておくことができる。 (Characteristic composition)
In the faucet device according to the present invention, a pressing member that comes into contact with the vicinity of the bent portion of the supply pipe and the discharge pipe and prevents the supply pipe and the discharge pipe from coming out of the valve portion is provided. It can be provided inside the first main body.

（効果）
供給管および吐出管の接続端部が屈曲している場合、水栓本体の内部で当該接続端部とバルブ部との挿通作業がやや煩雑となる。しかし、屈曲部の近傍に当接する押え部材を設けておくことで、上記固定部材の操作に際して供給管等が逃げて上手く接続できないという不都合が解消される。 (effect)
When the connection ends of the supply pipe and the discharge pipe are bent, the insertion work between the connection end and the valve inside the faucet body becomes a little complicated. However, by providing the pressing member that comes into contact with the vicinity of the bent portion, the inconvenience that the supply pipe or the like escapes during the operation of the fixing member and cannot be connected properly is solved.

また、各管の接続作業が完了した後は、各管を確実に押さえることができる。このため、供給管や吐出管に高圧が作用し、固定部材の固定力に抗って各管が抜け出そうとする場合などにも当該抜出しを確実に阻止することができる。よって、耐久性の高い水栓装置を得ることができる。 Further, after the connection work of each pipe is completed, each pipe can be reliably pressed. Therefore, even when a high pressure acts on the supply pipe and the discharge pipe and each pipe tries to come out against the fixing force of the fixing member, the withdrawal can be reliably prevented. Therefore, a highly durable faucet device can be obtained.

The method of assembling the faucet device according to the present invention is as follows.
At least one supply pipe with a bend at the end,
A valve unit that switches between a flow / shutoff state for the liquid supplied from the supply pipe and a mixed state of the liquid supplied from each supply pipe when there are a plurality of the supply pipes.
A discharge pipe having a bent portion at the end and discharging the different liquid or mixed liquid downstream of the valve portion.
Both form the faucet body,
A first main body in which a first opening into which a part of the supply pipe and a part of the discharge pipe are inserted in the vertical direction is formed, and a spout containing a part of the discharge pipe is attached.
A second main body that protrudes outward with respect to the first main body, has a second opening into which the valve portion is inserted, and has an operation portion that switches the state of the valve portion.
The supply pipe and the discharge pipe can be locked by operating from the valve portion side with respect to the locking portion provided on the end side of the bent portion, and the supply pipe connected to the valve portion. And in a faucet device comprising a fixing member that prevents the discharge pipe from separating from the valve portion.
The supply pipe and the discharge pipe are inserted into the first main body while being held by a jig, and the jig is brought into contact with a contact portion arranged inside the first main body to bring the supply pipe into contact with the first main body. It is characterized in that the end portion and the end portion of the discharge pipe are moved to the side of the valve portion to be aligned, and the supply pipe, the discharge pipe, and the valve portion are connected by using the fixing member.

（効果）
本手段のように、端部に屈曲部を有する供給管や吐出管をバルブ部に接続する場合、水栓本体に対するこれ等の挿入方向と、バルブ部に対する挿入方向とが異なり、固定部材の固定に際しての供給管等とバルブ部との挿入接続作業が煩雑となる。 (effect)
When connecting a supply pipe or a discharge pipe having a bent portion at the end to the valve portion as in this means, the insertion direction of these to the faucet body is different from the insertion direction to the valve portion, and the fixing member is fixed. At this time, the insertion and connection work between the supply pipe and the valve portion becomes complicated.

そこで、供給管および吐出管を治具で保持しつつ第１本体に挿入することで、これら部材の挿入作業が容易となる。 Therefore, by inserting the supply pipe and the discharge pipe into the first main body while holding them with a jig, the work of inserting these members becomes easy.

さらに、本手段では、第１本体の内部に設けた当接部によって治具の移動方向を変更することができる。つまり、例えば治具を単に押し込む力を作用させるだけで供給管等の端部をバルブ部の側に容易に移動させ接続することができる。よって、供給管等の接続作業が極めて効率的なものとなる。 Further, in this means, the moving direction of the jig can be changed by the contact portion provided inside the first main body. That is, for example, the end portion of the supply pipe or the like can be easily moved to the valve portion side and connected by simply applying a force for pushing the jig. Therefore, the connection work of the supply pipe and the like becomes extremely efficient.

The valve portion V has a function of switching the flow / shutoff state of the supply pipe Pa for supplying a liquid such as water or hot water, and further switching the mixed state of water or hot water supplied from each supply pipe Pa. One or more discharge paths T for discharging water, hot water, or a mixed liquid thereof are formed on the outer peripheral surface of the valve portion V. The valve portion V is inserted and fixed inside the faucet body 1 forming the outer shell portion of the faucet device U.

水栓本体１には、バルブ部Ｖを切り替え操作する操作部２が設けられる。また、水栓本体１には、吐出路Ｔから延出する吐出管Ｐｂを内包するスパウトＳが接続される。このスパウトＳは水栓本体１に対して所定の角度範囲において回転自在である。 The faucet body 1 is provided with an operation unit 2 for switching and operating the valve unit V. Further, a spout S including a discharge pipe Pb extending from the discharge path T is connected to the faucet main body 1. The spout S is rotatable with respect to the faucet body 1 in a predetermined angle range.

水栓本体１は、第１開口Ｈ１と第２開口Ｈ２を有しており、供給管Ｐａが第１開口Ｈ１から挿入される。また、バルブ部Ｖが第２開口Ｈ２から挿入され、水栓本体１の内部において供給管Ｐａとバルブ部Ｖとが接続される。これらの接続は、水栓本体１を台所の流し台等に接続する前に行う。 The faucet main body 1 has a first opening H1 and a second opening H2, and the supply pipe Pa is inserted from the first opening H1. Further, the valve portion V is inserted from the second opening H2, and the supply pipe Pa and the valve portion V are connected inside the faucet main body 1. These connections are made before connecting the faucet body 1 to a kitchen sink or the like.

図２に示すように、供給管Ｐａの端部には、ゴム製などの第１シールリングＲ１が少なくとも一つ取り付けられ、バルブ部Ｖの接続孔ＪＰに挿入固定される。その固定のために、供給管Ｐａの端部近傍には例えばフランジ状に外方に突出した係止部Ｆが設けられている。 As shown in FIG. 2, at least one first seal ring R1 made of rubber or the like is attached to the end of the supply pipe Pa, and is inserted and fixed in the connection hole JP of the valve portion V. For the fixing, a locking portion F protruding outward like a flange is provided in the vicinity of the end portion of the supply pipe Pa, for example.

（固定部材）
この係止部Ｆには固定部材Ｇが作用し、係止部Ｆがバルブ部Ｖから離間して供給管Ｐａが抜け出すことが防止される。固定部材Ｇは、例えば図２に示すように、係止部Ｆの外径サイズよりも小さな幅の切欠きＧｓを有する円盤状の固定板Ｇａと、この固定板Ｇａに螺合するネジ部材Ｇｂとで構成される。 (Fixing member)
The fixing member G acts on the locking portion F, and the locking portion F is separated from the valve portion V to prevent the supply pipe Pa from coming out. As shown in FIG. 2, for example, the fixing member G includes a disk-shaped fixing plate Ga having a notch Gs having a width smaller than the outer diameter size of the locking portion F, and a screw member Gb screwed into the fixing plate Ga. It is composed of and.

固定板Ｇａは、供給管Ｐａの係止部Ｆに対してバルブ部Ｖとは反対側に配置する。本実施形態では、固定板Ｇａには供給管Ｐａの本数に等しい数として例えば二箇所の切欠きＧｓが設けてあり、供給管Ｐａを係止部Fにおける自身の延伸方向に対して直交する方向に移動させつつ各切欠きＧｓに挿入する。この状態で、固定板Ｇａの切欠きＧｓの周囲の表面が供給管Ｐａの係止部Ｆに当接する。 The fixing plate Ga is arranged on the side opposite to the valve portion V with respect to the locking portion F of the supply pipe Pa. In the present embodiment, the fixed plate Ga is provided with, for example, two notches Gs as a number equal to the number of supply pipes Pa, and the supply pipe Pa is orthogonal to its own stretching direction in the locking portion F. Insert into each notch Gs while moving to. In this state, the surface around the notch Gs of the fixing plate Ga comes into contact with the locking portion F of the supply pipe Pa.

また、固定板Ｇａには、ネジ部材Ｇｂが螺合する複数の雌ネジ部Ｇｈが形成してある。一方のネジ部材Ｇｂは、係止部Ｆを挟んで固定板Ｇａとは反対側から雌ネジ部Ｇｈに螺合させる。ネジ部材Ｇｂは第２開口Ｈ２から操作可能である。 Further, the fixing plate Ga is formed with a plurality of female screw portions Gh into which the screw member Gb is screwed. One screw member Gb is screwed into the female screw portion Gh from the side opposite to the fixing plate Ga with the locking portion F interposed therebetween. The screw member Gb can be operated from the second opening H2.

このような固定板Ｇａを用いることで、複数の供給管Ｐａを所定の位置関係に固定することができる。このため作業空間にあまり余裕のない水栓本体１の内部に複数の供給管Ｐａを配置する際にも、各供給管Ｐａの相対位置が維持され、バルブ部Ｖの接続部に対する各供給管Ｐａの位置合わせが容易となって接続作業の効率が向上する。 By using such a fixing plate Ga, a plurality of supply pipes Pa can be fixed in a predetermined positional relationship. Therefore, even when a plurality of supply pipes Pa are arranged inside the faucet main body 1 which does not have much room in the work space, the relative positions of the respective supply pipes Pa are maintained, and each supply pipe Pa with respect to the connection portion of the valve portion V is maintained. Alignment becomes easier and the efficiency of connection work is improved.

尚、上記係止部Ｆおよび固定部材Ｇは、本実施形態の形状に限らない。例えば、係止部Ｆを、供給管Ｐａの外表面を溝状に切り欠いた形状とし、固定部材Ｇを、この係止部Ｆに係合可能な爪部を有するものとすることができる。 The locking portion F and the fixing member G are not limited to the shape of the present embodiment. For example, the locking portion F may have a shape in which the outer surface of the supply pipe Pa is cut out in a groove shape, and the fixing member G may have a claw portion that can be engaged with the locking portion F.

（位置決め部材）
接続作業に際し、固定板Ｇａに挿入された供給管Ｐａに対して、係止部Ｆを挟んで固定板Ｇａと反対側から位置決め部材３を外挿する。位置決め部材３は二つのリング部が連結されたものである。 (Positioning member)
At the time of connection work, the positioning member 3 is extrapolated from the side opposite to the fixing plate Ga with the locking portion F sandwiched between the supply pipe Pa inserted into the fixing plate Ga. The positioning member 3 is formed by connecting two ring portions.

これにより、各供給管Ｐａの相対位置が固定され、固定板Ｇａから各供給管Ｐａが脱落しなくなる。よって、固定板Ｇａと各供給管Ｐａとを予め仮組して水栓本体１の内部に挿入配置させる場合に、当該配置作業が確実なものとなり、水栓装置Ｕの組立作業が効率化される。 As a result, the relative position of each supply pipe Pa is fixed, and each supply pipe Pa does not fall off from the fixing plate Ga. Therefore, when the fixing plate Ga and each supply pipe Pa are temporarily assembled in advance and inserted and arranged inside the faucet main body 1, the arrangement work is ensured and the assembly work of the faucet device U is streamlined. NS.

（ケーシング）
本実施形態においては、図１に示すようにバルブ部Ｖは、カップ状のケーシングＶｃとバルブ本体Ｖａとで構成してある。バルブ本体Ｖａの構造は省略するが、図１に示すように、バルブ本体ＶａはケーシングＶｃに内包された状態で水栓本体１に取り付けられる。本実施形態では、供給管Ｐａの係止部Ｆは、まず、ケーシングＶｃの底部と固定板Ｇａとで挟持固定されるように構成してある。そのために、ケーシングＶｃの底部には、供給管Ｐａを挿通する接続孔ＪＰと、ネジ部材Ｇｂを挿通させる孔部ＪＧが形成してある。 (casing)
In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the valve portion V is composed of a cup-shaped casing Vc and a valve body Va. Although the structure of the valve body Va is omitted, as shown in FIG. 1, the valve body Va is attached to the faucet body 1 in a state of being contained in the casing Vc. In the present embodiment, the locking portion F of the supply pipe Pa is configured to be first sandwiched and fixed between the bottom portion of the casing Vc and the fixing plate Ga. Therefore, a connection hole JP through which the supply pipe Pa is inserted and a hole JG through which the screw member Gb is inserted are formed at the bottom of the casing Vc.

尚、図示は省略してあるが、水栓本体１に対するケーシングＶｃの取り付けは、例えば上記雌ネジ部Ｇｈとは別にケーシングＶｃの底部に設けた取付孔と別の取付ネジとによって行われる。この取付ネジも第２開口Ｈ２の側から行えるものであり、ケーシングＶｃの固定作業を容易にしている。 Although not shown, the casing Vc is attached to the faucet body 1 by, for example, a mounting hole provided at the bottom of the casing Vc separately from the female screw portion Gh and another mounting screw. This mounting screw can also be formed from the side of the second opening H2, facilitating the fixing work of the casing Vc.

ケーシングＶｃの円筒状の外面の一部には例えば凸部４が形成されており、水栓本体１の内面に形成した位置決め用の凹部５に係入可能である。これにより、ケーシングＶｃの挿入方向周りの回転姿勢が一定となり、底部に形成した接続孔ＪＰと、供給管Ｐａとの位置合わせを容易にしている。供給管Ｐａが接続孔ＪＰに挿入されたあとネジ部材Ｇｂを用いて固定板ＧａとケーシングＶｃの底部とで各供給管Ｐａの係止部Ｆを挟持固定する。ネジ部材Ｇｂの取り付けに際して、バルブ本体Ｖａは未だケーシングＶｃに挿入されていないから、第２開口Ｈ２を介してのネジ部材Ｇｂの締結作業は極めて容易である。よって供給管Ｐａの固定作業が効率化される。 For example, a convex portion 4 is formed on a part of the cylindrical outer surface of the casing Vc, and can be fitted into the positioning concave portion 5 formed on the inner surface of the faucet main body 1. As a result, the rotational posture around the insertion direction of the casing Vc becomes constant, and the alignment of the connection hole JP formed at the bottom and the supply pipe Pa is facilitated. After the supply pipe Pa is inserted into the connection hole JP, the locking portion F of each supply pipe Pa is sandwiched and fixed between the fixing plate Ga and the bottom of the casing Vc using the screw member Gb. Since the valve body Va has not yet been inserted into the casing Vc when the screw member Gb is attached, it is extremely easy to fasten the screw member Gb through the second opening H2. Therefore, the work of fixing the supply pipe Pa is streamlined.

接続孔ＪＰの周囲は凹状に形成されており、夫々の供給管Ｐａの先端が挿入された状態で、各供給管Ｐａの外面と接続孔ＪＰとの間にはシール用の第１シールリングＲ１がスペーサ６を介して夫々二個配置される。尚、各供給管Ｐａに装着される第１シールリングＲ１の数は任意である。 The periphery of the connection hole JP is formed in a concave shape, and with the tips of the respective supply pipes Pa inserted, the first seal ring R1 for sealing is provided between the outer surface of each supply pipe Pa and the connection hole JP. Two are arranged via the spacer 6. The number of first seal rings R1 attached to each supply pipe Pa is arbitrary.

〔第２実施形態〕
図３（ａ）に示すように、上記固定板Ｇａは水栓本体１と一体的に形成されていてもよい。ここでは、水栓本体１の内面に向けてフランジ状に突出した固定部Ｇ１を形成する。図３（ｂ）に示すように、この固定部Ｇ１には水栓本体１の長手方向に沿って見たとき、中央部から外方に向けて供給管Ｐａを固定する二つの切欠きＧｓと、供給管Ｐａの係止部Ｆを挿通させる補助切欠きＧｓ１が形成してある。この補助切欠きＧｓ１を介して、係止部Ｆを固定部Ｇ１に対してバルブ部Ｖの側に挿通し、各切欠きＧｓに位置決めする。 [Second Embodiment]
As shown in FIG. 3A, the fixing plate Ga may be integrally formed with the faucet main body 1. Here, a fixing portion G1 projecting in a flange shape toward the inner surface of the faucet main body 1 is formed. As shown in FIG. 3B, the fixing portion G1 has two notches Gs for fixing the supply pipe Pa from the central portion to the outside when viewed along the longitudinal direction of the faucet main body 1. , Auxiliary notch Gs1 through which the locking portion F of the supply pipe Pa is inserted is formed. The locking portion F is inserted into the valve portion V side with respect to the fixed portion G1 via the auxiliary notch Gs1 and positioned in each notch Gs.

二本の供給管Ｐａの位置合わせが終了すると、第２開口Ｈ２の側から位置決め部材３を外挿し、供給管Ｐａの位置を固定する。この状態で、第２開口Ｈ２からケーシングＶｃを挿入し、底部の接続孔ＪＰに各供給管Ｐａ等を挿通させる。固定部Ｇ１には、ネジ部材Ｇｂを螺合する雌ネジ部Ｇｈが形成してあり、第２開口Ｈ２の側からネジ部材Ｇｂを操作して底部を固定部Ｇ１に固定する。 When the alignment of the two supply pipes Pa is completed, the positioning member 3 is externally inserted from the side of the second opening H2 to fix the positions of the supply pipes Pa. In this state, the casing Vc is inserted from the second opening H2, and each supply pipe Pa or the like is inserted into the connection hole JP at the bottom. A female screw portion Gh for screwing the screw member Gb is formed in the fixing portion G1, and the screw member Gb is operated from the side of the second opening H2 to fix the bottom portion to the fixing portion G1.

本構成のように固定板Ｇａが水栓本体１に一体形成されていれば、供給管Ｐａの夫々の端部をより正確に位置決めすることができる。一方、ケーシングＶｃを水栓本体１に配置する場合にも、水栓本体１の内面がガイド面となって、各供給管Ｐａに対するケーシングＶｃの位置決めは正確に行われる。よって、本構成においても供給管Ｐａとバルブ部Ｖとの接続作業の効率が向上する。 If the fixing plate Ga is integrally formed with the faucet main body 1 as in this configuration, each end of the supply pipe Pa can be positioned more accurately. On the other hand, even when the casing Vc is arranged on the faucet main body 1, the inner surface of the faucet main body 1 serves as a guide surface, and the casing Vc is accurately positioned with respect to each supply pipe Pa. Therefore, even in this configuration, the efficiency of the connection work between the supply pipe Pa and the valve portion V is improved.

〔第３実施形態〕
第３実施形態に係る水栓装置Ｕを図４乃至図７に示す。ここでは、バルブ部Ｖに供給管Ｐａに加えて吐出管Ｐｂが接続され、吐出管Ｐｂの先端には、スパウトＳから引き出し可能なフレキシブルホースが接続されている。また、水栓本体１は、鉛直方向に配置され下方に第１開口Ｈ１を有する第１本体１ａと、そこから側方に突出し、第２開口Ｈ２を有する第２本体１ｂとを備えている。第１本体１ａには主に供給管Ｐａと吐出管Ｐｂが挿通され、第２本体１ｂにはバルブ部Ｖと操作部２が設けられる。 [Third Embodiment]
The faucet device U according to the third embodiment is shown in FIGS. 4 to 7. Here, a discharge pipe Pb is connected to the valve portion V in addition to the supply pipe Pa, and a flexible hose that can be pulled out from the spout S is connected to the tip of the discharge pipe Pb. Further, the faucet main body 1 includes a first main body 1a which is arranged in the vertical direction and has a first opening H1 downward, and a second main body 1b which projects laterally from the first main body 1b and has a second opening H2. A supply pipe Pa and a discharge pipe Pb are mainly inserted into the first main body 1a, and a valve portion V and an operation portion 2 are provided in the second main body 1b.

図４に示すように、例えば上方が少し窄んだ略円筒状の水栓本体１が流し台に取り付けられ、水栓本体１の上端の第３開口Ｈ３にはＵ字状のスパウトＳが取り付けられている。スパウトＳは水栓本体１に対して所定の角度に亘って回転する。スパウトＳは、水栓本体１に連接され水栓本体１に対して左右に回転するホルダ部Ｓ１と、このホルダ部Ｓ１に抜き差し自在に接続されるヘッド部Ｓ２（図４（ｂ））とを備えている。ヘッド部Ｓ２には吐出管Ｐｂとして機能するフレキシブルホースが接続され、ホルダ部Ｓ１の内部を介して水栓本体１の下方に敷設されている。 As shown in FIG. 4, for example, a substantially cylindrical faucet body 1 having a slightly narrowed upper portion is attached to a sink, and a U-shaped spout S is attached to the third opening H3 at the upper end of the faucet body 1. ing. The spout S rotates over a predetermined angle with respect to the faucet body 1. The spout S includes a holder portion S1 that is connected to the faucet body 1 and rotates left and right with respect to the faucet body 1, and a head portion S2 (FIG. 4 (b)) that is freely inserted and removed from the holder portion S1. I have. A flexible hose that functions as a discharge pipe Pb is connected to the head portion S2, and is laid below the faucet main body 1 via the inside of the holder portion S1.

ヘッド部Ｓ２の内部には、浄水用のカートリッジＣを装着することができる。ホルダ部Ｓ１の先端にはホルダ部Ｓ１に対して回転操作できる吐水部Ｓ３が設けられ、吐水部Ｓ３の操作によって吐出する流体を原水と浄水とに切り換えることができる。 A cartridge C for water purification can be mounted inside the head portion S2. A water discharge unit S3 that can be rotated with respect to the holder portion S1 is provided at the tip of the holder portion S1, and the fluid to be discharged can be switched between raw water and purified water by operating the water discharge portion S3.

水栓本体１のうち第２本体１ｂには、流体である水と湯とを適宜の混合比率に調節することができ、吐水状態と吐水停止状態とを切り替えるバルブ部Ｖと、当該バルブ部Ｖを操作する操作部２とが設けられている。バルブ部Ｖには、水あるいは湯をバルブ部Ｖに供給する二本の供給管Ｐａと、水や湯或いはバルブ部Ｖで混合された混合水を吐出する吐出管Ｐｂが接続されている。 The second main body 1b of the faucet main body 1 has a valve portion V that can adjust the mixing ratio of fluid water and hot water to an appropriate mixing ratio and switches between a water discharge state and a water discharge stop state, and the valve portion V. An operation unit 2 for operating the above is provided. The valve portion V is connected to two supply pipes Pa for supplying water or hot water to the valve portion V and a discharge pipe Pb for discharging the mixed water mixed with the water, hot water or the valve portion V.

供給管Ｐａや吐出管Ｐｂは、設置作業時に手による曲げ加工を可能にするために銅管が用いられ柔らかく構成されている。本実施形態では、図５に示すように先端をＬ字状に曲げた供給管Ｐａと吐出管Ｐｂを、第１本体１ａの下方の第１開口Ｈ１からバルブ部Ｖの側方位置まで延出させ、ケーシングＶｃに接続する。 The supply pipe Pa and the discharge pipe Pb are made of a copper pipe and are softly configured so that they can be bent by hand during installation work. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the supply pipe Pa and the discharge pipe Pb whose tips are bent in an L shape extend from the first opening H1 below the first main body 1a to the side position of the valve portion V. And connect to the casing Vc.

バルブ部Ｖは、ケーシングＶｃとバルブ本体Ｖａからなり、これらは第２開口Ｈ２から横向きに挿入される。このため、バルブ部Ｖに接続される供給管Ｐａおよび吐出管Ｐｂの端部は、ケーシングＶｃの底面に垂直となるように屈曲部を備えている。 The valve portion V includes a casing Vc and a valve body Va, which are inserted sideways from the second opening H2. Therefore, the end portions of the supply pipe Pa and the discharge pipe Pb connected to the valve portion V are provided with bent portions so as to be perpendicular to the bottom surface of the casing Vc.

本構成のように、バルブ部Ｖを水栓本体１の外部に偏位させ、屈曲部を有する供給管Ｐａ等を接続する構成とすることで、水栓本体１の内部において供給管Ｐａおよび吐出管Ｐｂを挿通させる空間の形状がシンプルなものとなり、当該空間の確保が容易となる。 As in this configuration, the valve portion V is displaced to the outside of the faucet main body 1 to connect the supply pipe Pa or the like having a bent portion, so that the supply pipe Pa and the discharge can be made inside the faucet main body 1. The shape of the space through which the pipe Pb is inserted becomes simple, and it becomes easy to secure the space.

また、各供給管Ｐａ等を挿通する空間とバルブ部Ｖを設置する空間とが独立し、各供給管Ｐａ等とバルブ部Ｖとの設置作業が別に行えるから、各供給管Ｐａ等とバルブ部Ｖとを仮接続した状態で水栓本体１の内部に挿入する必要はない。よって、第１本体１ａと第２本体１ｂとが夫々コンパクトになり、水栓装置Ｕの意匠性を高めることができる。 Further, since the space for inserting each supply pipe Pa and the like and the space for installing the valve part V are independent and the installation work of each supply pipe Pa and the valve part V can be performed separately, each supply pipe Pa and the valve part can be installed separately. It is not necessary to insert the faucet body 1 into the faucet body 1 with the V temporarily connected. Therefore, the first main body 1a and the second main body 1b become compact, respectively, and the design of the faucet device U can be enhanced.

供給管Ｐａおよび吐出管Ｐｂの夫々は、ケーシングＶｃに形成した接続孔ＪＰに挿入され接続される。供給管Ｐａ等は、各々の先端に形成したフランジ状の係止部Ｆが、三つの切欠きＧｓを有する固定板Ｇａに挿入され、位置決め部材３によって互いの相対位置が決定される。供給管Ｐａ等には、スペーサ６を介した二個の第１シールリングＲ１が挿入され、ケーシングＶｃの接続孔ＪＰに挿入される。 Each of the supply pipe Pa and the discharge pipe Pb is inserted and connected to the connection hole JP formed in the casing Vc. Flange-shaped locking portions F formed at the tips of the supply pipes Pa and the like are inserted into the fixing plate Ga having three notches Gs, and the relative positions of the supply pipes Pa and the like are determined by the positioning member 3. Two first seal rings R1 are inserted into the supply pipe Pa and the like via the spacer 6, and are inserted into the connection hole JP of the casing Vc.

夫々の係止部Ｆが固定板ＧａとケーシングＶｃとで挟まれ、ケーシングＶｃの一方側から挿入したネジ部材Ｇｂを固定板Ｇａに螺合させることで係止部ＦがケーシングＶｃに固定される。 Each locking portion F is sandwiched between the fixing plate Ga and the casing Vc, and the locking portion F is fixed to the casing Vc by screwing the screw member Gb inserted from one side of the casing Vc into the fixing plate Ga. ..

この後、図６および図７に示すように、ケーシングＶｃにバルブ本体Ｖａを挿入する。さらに、バルブ本体Ｖａに続けて第２開口Ｈ２に固定リング７を螺合させる。これにより、バルブ本体Ｖａを介してケーシングＶｃを押し、ケーシングＶｃの底部の縁部Ｖｃ３が第２本体１ｂの内面に形成した段部１ｂ２に押し付けられて位置固定される。 After that, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the valve body Va is inserted into the casing Vc. Further, the fixing ring 7 is screwed into the second opening H2 following the valve body Va. As a result, the casing Vc is pushed through the valve body Va, and the edge portion Vc3 at the bottom of the casing Vc is pressed against the step portion 1b2 formed on the inner surface of the second main body 1b to fix the position.

バルブ本体Ｖａの端面には、ケーシングＶｃの底部に設けた接続孔ＪＰの位置に合わせた第２シールリングＲ２が設けてあり、バルブ本体Ｖａに設けた流路が外部との密封状態を維持した状態で供給管Ｐａおよび吐出管Ｐｂと連通される。 A second seal ring R2 is provided on the end surface of the valve body Va so as to match the position of the connection hole JP provided at the bottom of the casing Vc, and the flow path provided in the valve body Va maintains a sealed state with the outside. In this state, it communicates with the supply pipe Pa and the discharge pipe Pb.

図７には、供給管Ｐａおよび吐出管Ｐｂ、ケーシングＶｃ、バルブ本体Ｖａが第２本体１ｂに固定された状態を示す。具体的には、ケーシングＶｃが固定リング７によって押し込まれると、ケーシングＶｃの底面の縁部Ｖｃ３と、ケーシングＶｃの筒状側面のうち底部の近傍に設けた第１側面Ｖｃ１が第２本体１ｂの円筒状の内面に当接する。これにより、ケーシングＶｃの径方向の位置が安定する。 FIG. 7 shows a state in which the supply pipe Pa, the discharge pipe Pb, the casing Vc, and the valve main body Va are fixed to the second main body 1b. Specifically, when the casing Vc is pushed by the fixing ring 7, the edge portion Vc3 of the bottom surface of the casing Vc and the first side surface Vc1 provided near the bottom portion of the cylindrical side surface of the casing Vc become the second main body 1b. It abuts on the cylindrical inner surface. As a result, the radial position of the casing Vc is stabilized.

ケーシングＶｃの押し込みがさらに進むとケーシングＶｃの縁部Ｖｃ３が、第２本体１ｂの内面に形成した段部１ｂ２に当接する。また、ケーシングＶｃの筒状側面のうち他方の端部の近傍に設けた第２側面Ｖｃ２が第２本体１ｂの内面と当接する。これにより、ケーシングＶｃの筒状側面のうち第１側面Ｖｃ１と第２側面Ｖｃ２との間の領域が第２本体１ｂの内面に対して非接触となる。 When the casing Vc is pushed further, the edge portion Vc3 of the casing Vc comes into contact with the step portion 1b2 formed on the inner surface of the second main body 1b. Further, the second side surface Vc2 provided near the other end of the cylindrical side surface of the casing Vc comes into contact with the inner surface of the second main body 1b. As a result, the region between the first side surface Vc1 and the second side surface Vc2 of the cylindrical side surface of the casing Vc becomes non-contact with the inner surface of the second main body 1b.

第２本体１ｂやケーシングＶｃは、例えば、真鍮やステンレス鋼あるいは亜鉛ダイカスト等の金属で構成することができるが、ケーシングＶｃと第２本体１ｂとの接触面積が少なくなると、湯の熱等がバルブ部Ｖから第２本体１ｂさらには水栓本体１に逃げ難くなり、断熱効果の高い水栓装置Ｕを得ることができる。因みに、第２本体１ｂやケーシングＶｃを熱断熱性能の良い樹脂材料で構成する場合にも、上記隙間の形成は断熱効果の向上に寄与する。 The second main body 1b and the casing Vc can be made of a metal such as brass, stainless steel, or zinc die-cast, but when the contact area between the casing Vc and the second main body 1b becomes small, the heat of hot water or the like becomes a valve. It becomes difficult to escape from the portion V to the second main body 1b and further to the faucet main body 1, and a faucet device U having a high heat insulating effect can be obtained. Incidentally, even when the second main body 1b and the casing Vc are made of a resin material having good thermal heat insulating performance, the formation of the gap contributes to the improvement of the heat insulating effect.

また、腐食防止の観点からは、固定部材Ｇであるネジ部材Ｇｂが固定板ＧａやケーシングＶｃのみに接触するため、仮に、第２本体１ｂが金属材料で構成されている場合に、ネジ部材Ｇｂの材質に起因する第２本体１ｂの腐食防止効果が期待できる。 Further, from the viewpoint of corrosion prevention, since the screw member Gb which is the fixing member G contacts only the fixing plate Ga and the casing Vc, if the second main body 1b is made of a metal material, the screw member Gb The corrosion prevention effect of the second main body 1b due to the material of the above can be expected.

ケーシングＶｃの第２側面Ｖｃ２と第２本体１ｂの内面との間には第３シールリングＲ３を設けてある。第３シールリングＲ３は、特に、第２開口Ｈ２の側から水などが第２本体１ｂの内部に侵入するのを防止し、第２本体１ｂおよび第１本体１ａの内部にある各部材が腐食することなどを防止するものである。 A third seal ring R3 is provided between the second side surface Vc2 of the casing Vc and the inner surface of the second main body 1b. The third seal ring R3 particularly prevents water or the like from entering the inside of the second main body 1b from the side of the second opening H2, and each member inside the second main body 1b and the first main body 1a is corroded. It is intended to prevent such things as being done.

本構成のように、供給管Ｐａおよび吐出管Ｐｂを水栓本体１の第１開口Ｈ１から挿入してバルブ部Ｖに接続し、第２開口Ｈ２から操作する固定部材Ｇによってこれら供給管Ｐａおよび吐出管Ｐｂの固定が行えるものであれば、供給管Ｐａおよび吐出管Ｐｂの接続作業が容易となる。つまり、供給管Ｐａおよび吐出管Ｐｂの端部に配置した固定部材Ｇを仮に供給管Ｐａ等の側から操作する場合、各供給管Ｐａ等の長尺部が延出している状態では、水栓本体１の内部において固定部材Ｇへのアクセスが煩雑となる。 As in this configuration, the supply pipe Pa and the discharge pipe Pb are inserted from the first opening H1 of the faucet body 1 and connected to the valve portion V, and these supply pipes Pa and the discharge pipe Pb are operated by the fixing member G operated from the second opening H2. If the discharge pipe Pb can be fixed, the connection work between the supply pipe Pa and the discharge pipe Pb becomes easy. That is, when the fixing member G arranged at the end of the supply pipe Pa and the discharge pipe Pb is operated from the side of the supply pipe Pa or the like, the faucet is in a state where the long portion of each supply pipe Pa or the like extends. Access to the fixing member G becomes complicated inside the main body 1.

しかし、固定部材Ｇの操作が第２開口Ｈ２から行える本構成では、バルブ部Ｖの形状が比較的シンプルに構成し得るため、固定部材Ｇの操作が容易となる。また、第２開口Ｈ２を利用できることで、供給管Ｐａ等の接続作業のための別の開口を設ける必要がなく水栓装置Ｕの意匠性が向上する。さらに、第２開口Ｈ２にはバルブ部Ｖの操作部２を取り付けることができるため、供給管Ｐａ等の接続作業が終了したのち固定部材Ｇ等を隠すことができる。これにより水栓装置Ｕの意匠性がさらに向上する。 However, in this configuration in which the fixing member G can be operated from the second opening H2, the shape of the valve portion V can be relatively simple, so that the fixing member G can be easily operated. Further, since the second opening H2 can be used, it is not necessary to provide another opening for the connection work of the supply pipe Pa and the like, and the design of the faucet device U is improved. Further, since the operation portion 2 of the valve portion V can be attached to the second opening H2, the fixing member G and the like can be hidden after the connection work of the supply pipe Pa and the like is completed. As a result, the design of the faucet device U is further improved.

（設置方法）
本実施形態の水栓装置Ｕにあっては、第１本体１ａに対する供給管Ｐａ・吐出管Ｐｂの挿入方向と、ケーシングＶｃに対する接続方向とが異なるため、以下に示す治具を用いて組み立てを行う。 (Installation method)
In the faucet device U of the present embodiment, since the insertion direction of the supply pipe Pa / discharge pipe Pb with respect to the first main body 1a and the connection direction with respect to the casing Vc are different, the faucet device U is assembled using the jig shown below. conduct.

先ず、図８に示すように、例えば二本の供給管Ｐａと一本の吐出管Ｐｂとを、治具Ｙの一部を構成する第１治具Ｙ１にセットする。第１治具Ｙ１には、各供給管Ｐａ等の相対位置と屈曲部の形状に応じた受け部Ｙ１ａが形成してあり、三本の供給管Ｐａ等の端部を固定板Ｇａの切欠きＧｓに挿通した状態で第１治具Ｙ１にセットする。これに対し、係止部Ｆを挟んで固定板Ｇａと反対側から位置決め部材３を外挿する。この状態を保持したまま、これらの仮組された部材を第１開口Ｈ１から所定の位置まで挿入する。 First, as shown in FIG. 8, for example, two supply pipes Pa and one discharge pipe Pb are set in the first jig Y1 which constitutes a part of the jig Y. The first jig Y1 is formed with a receiving portion Y1a corresponding to the relative position of each supply pipe Pa and the shape of the bent portion, and the ends of the three supply pipes Pa and the like are notched in the fixing plate Ga. It is set in the first jig Y1 while being inserted through Gs. On the other hand, the positioning member 3 is extrapolated from the side opposite to the fixing plate Ga with the locking portion F interposed therebetween. While maintaining this state, these temporarily assembled members are inserted from the first opening H1 to a predetermined position.

これに続けてケーシングＶｃを第２開口Ｈ２から挿入する。ケーシングＶｃの奥側端部に設けた凸部４を第２本体１ｂの内面に設けた凹部５に係合させることで、ケーシングＶｃの底部の接続孔ＪＰが三本の供給管Ｐａ・吐出管Ｐｂの位置とほぼ一致する。ただし、各供給管Ｐａ等の先端には、夫々少なくとも一個の第１シールリングＲ１が装着されており、接続孔ＪＰに挿入するのに所定の押し込み力が必要である。よって、図８に示すように第２治具Ｙ２を用いる。 Following this, the casing Vc is inserted through the second opening H2. By engaging the convex portion 4 provided at the inner end of the casing Vc with the concave portion 5 provided on the inner surface of the second main body 1b, the connection holes JP at the bottom of the casing Vc have three supply pipes Pa and discharge pipes. It almost coincides with the position of Pb. However, at least one first seal ring R1 is attached to the tip of each supply pipe Pa or the like, and a predetermined pushing force is required to insert the first seal ring R1 into the connection hole JP. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 8, the second jig Y2 is used.

第１治具Ｙ１の裏面と第２治具Ｙ２の表面には共に当接部として機能する傾斜面Ｙ１ｂ，Ｙ２ｂを設けてある。各供給管Ｐａ等の接続孔ＪＰに対する挿入に際しては、先ず、第２治具Ｙ２を第３開口Ｈ３から所定位置まで挿入しておく。これに対し第１治具Ｙ１を第１開口Ｈ１から挿入すると、双方の傾斜面Ｙ１ｂ，Ｙ２ｂの当接により、第１治具Ｙ１がケーシングＶｃの側に変位する。このときケーシングＶｃに押し込み力を加えることで各供給管Ｐａ等が管用孔に挿入される。続けて第２開口Ｈ２からネジ部材Ｇｂを操作して、ケーシングＶｃに供給管Ｐａおよび吐出管Ｐｂを固定する。このあと第２治具Ｙ２を第３開口Ｈ３から抜き取り、第１治具Ｙ１をバルブ部Ｖと反対側に変位させたのち第１開口Ｈ１から抜き取る。 Inclined surfaces Y1b and Y2b that function as contact portions are provided on the back surface of the first jig Y1 and the front surface of the second jig Y2. When inserting each supply pipe Pa or the like into the connection hole JP, first, the second jig Y2 is inserted from the third opening H3 to a predetermined position. On the other hand, when the first jig Y1 is inserted through the first opening H1, the first jig Y1 is displaced toward the casing Vc due to the contact between the inclined surfaces Y1b and Y2b. At this time, by applying a pushing force to the casing Vc, each supply pipe Pa or the like is inserted into the pipe hole. Subsequently, the screw member Gb is operated from the second opening H2 to fix the supply pipe Pa and the discharge pipe Pb to the casing Vc. After that, the second jig Y2 is pulled out from the third opening H3, the first jig Y1 is displaced to the side opposite to the valve portion V, and then the second jig Y1 is pulled out from the first opening H1.

この状態では、ケーシングＶｃは未だ第２本体１ｂに固定されていない。そのためには、ケーシングＶｃの内部に第２開口Ｈ２からバルブ本体Ｖａを挿入設置し（図６参照）、さらに固定リング７を第２本体１ｂに螺合させてバルブ本体Ｖａを押圧する。最後に、バルブ部Ｖを切り替え操作する操作部２を第２開口Ｈ２に装着して操作部２とバルブ部Ｖとの操作突起とを連結し、さらに、第３開口Ｈ３にスパウトＳを取り付ける。 In this state, the casing Vc is not yet fixed to the second main body 1b. For that purpose, the valve body Va is inserted and installed inside the casing Vc from the second opening H2 (see FIG. 6), and the fixing ring 7 is screwed into the second body 1b to press the valve body Va. Finally, the operation unit 2 for switching and operating the valve portion V is attached to the second opening H2 to connect the operation portion 2 and the operation protrusion of the valve portion V, and further, the spout S is attached to the third opening H3.

尚、上記記載に拘らず第２治具Ｙ２は必ずしも必要ではない。例えば、本実施形態の水栓本体１は第３開口Ｈ３に向けて細くなる形状である。よって、その内面も同様に細くなる。この面を当接面として、ここに第１治具Ｙ１を当接させてバルブ部Ｖの側に押し付けるようにすればよい。これにより、第２治具Ｙ２が不要となって組み立て工数が削減される。 Notwithstanding the above description, the second jig Y2 is not always necessary. For example, the faucet main body 1 of the present embodiment has a shape that becomes thinner toward the third opening H3. Therefore, the inner surface thereof is also thinned. With this surface as the contact surface, the first jig Y1 may be brought into contact with the contact surface and pressed against the valve portion V side. This eliminates the need for the second jig Y2 and reduces the assembly man-hours.

以上の各手段であれば、第２治具Ｙ２あるいは第１本体１ａの内部に設けた当接面によって第１治具Ｙ１の移動方向を変更することができる。つまり、例えば第１治具Ｙ１には単に押込み力を作用させるだけで供給管Ｐａ等の端部をバルブ部Ｖの側に容易に移動させ接続することができる。よって、供給管Ｐａ等の接続作業が極めて効率的なものとなる。 With each of the above means, the moving direction of the first jig Y1 can be changed by the contact surface provided inside the second jig Y2 or the first main body 1a. That is, for example, the end portion of the supply pipe Pa or the like can be easily moved to the valve portion V side and connected to the first jig Y1 by simply applying a pushing force. Therefore, the connection work of the supply pipe Pa and the like becomes extremely efficient.

〔第４実施形態〕
図９に示すように、先端に屈曲部を持つ供給管Ｐａおよび吐出管Ｐｂを使用する構成においては、供給管Ｐａおよび吐出管Ｐｂの端部近傍に押え部材Ｂを設けることもできる。この押え部材Ｂは、筒状の部材であり、供給管Ｐａと吐出管Ｐｂを設置したのち第１開口Ｈ１から第１本体１ａに挿入する。図９では、第１本体１ａの内部に設けた雌ネジ部８に対し第２ネジ部材９を用いて締結固定する。 [Fourth Embodiment]
As shown in FIG. 9, in the configuration in which the supply pipe Pa and the discharge pipe Pb having a bent portion at the tip are used, the pressing member B may be provided in the vicinity of the ends of the supply pipe Pa and the discharge pipe Pb. The pressing member B is a tubular member, and after installing the supply pipe Pa and the discharge pipe Pb, it is inserted into the first main body 1a through the first opening H1. In FIG. 9, the second screw member 9 is used to fasten and fix the female screw portion 8 provided inside the first main body 1a.

押え部材Ｂを設けることで固定板Ｇａに対するネジ部材Ｇｂの操作に際して供給管Ｐａ等が逃げることがなく接続作業の効率が向上する。また、供給管Ｐａ等が接続されたのちは、押え部材Ｂの一方の面が供給管Ｐａや吐出管Ｐｂに対して当接状態あるいは近接状態に配置され、供給管Ｐａ等の抜出しが防止される。 By providing the pressing member B, the supply pipe Pa and the like do not escape when the screw member Gb is operated with respect to the fixing plate Ga, and the efficiency of the connection work is improved. Further, after the supply pipe Pa or the like is connected, one surface of the pressing member B is arranged in a contact state or a close state with the supply pipe Pa or the discharge pipe Pb to prevent the supply pipe Pa or the like from being pulled out. NS.

固定板Ｇａの一方には、供給管Ｐａや吐出管Ｐｂを分ける仕切りＧｐが設けてある。この仕切りＧｐは、供給管Ｐａ等の接続作業に際して、各管を固定板Ｇａの所定位置に誘導する組立ガイドとして機能し、誘導後は各管の位置ずれを防止する。また、仕切りＧの端部と押え部材Ｂとを積極的に当接させる場合には、押え部材Ｂや固定板Ｇａの固定が仮に緩んだとしても両部材のガタツキを無くすことができる。 On one side of the fixing plate Ga, a partition Gp for separating the supply pipe Pa and the discharge pipe Pb is provided. This partition Gp functions as an assembly guide that guides each pipe to a predetermined position of the fixing plate Ga at the time of connecting the supply pipe Pa and the like, and prevents the position deviation of each pipe after the guidance. Further, when the end portion of the partition G and the pressing member B are positively brought into contact with each other, even if the pressing member B and the fixing plate Ga are loosened, the rattling of both members can be eliminated.

さらに、押え部材Ｂの内部は中空であり、第１開口Ｈ１と第３開口Ｈ３とを連絡する。よって、この中空部分に引き出し可能な吐出管Ｐｂとしてのフレキシブルホースなどを挿通配置する通路として利用することができる。 Further, the inside of the pressing member B is hollow, and connects the first opening H1 and the third opening H3. Therefore, it can be used as a passage for inserting and arranging a flexible hose or the like as a discharge pipe Pb that can be pulled out into this hollow portion.

尚、図９には、固定板Ｇａとネジ部材Ｇｂによる係止部Ｆの固定構造が示されているが、供給管Ｐａ等の抜け出しが防止される以上、このような固定構造は省略可能である。 Although FIG. 9 shows a fixing structure of the locking portion F by the fixing plate Ga and the screw member Gb, such a fixing structure can be omitted as long as the supply pipe Pa and the like are prevented from coming off. be.

〔その他の実施形態〕
水栓本体１を第１本体１ａと第２本体１ｂとで構成する場合に、供給管Ｐａ等の先端部の屈曲角度は直角である必要はなく、直角に対して大小何れの角度であっても良い。即ち、第２本体１ｂの突出状態は意匠の都合等に応じて任意に設定すればよい。 [Other Embodiments]
When the faucet main body 1 is composed of the first main body 1a and the second main body 1b, the bending angle of the tip of the supply pipe Pa or the like does not have to be a right angle, and the bending angle may be large or small with respect to the right angle. Is also good. That is, the protruding state of the second main body 1b may be arbitrarily set according to the convenience of the design and the like.

ケーシングＶｃやバルブ本体Ｖａにおける供給管Ｐａ等の接続部は、例えば円筒状の底部に限られるものではなく側面に設けるものであっても良い。その場合の固定部材Ｇも、第２開口Ｈ２から操作できるものであれば任意の構成を採ることができる。 The connection portion of the casing Vc and the supply pipe Pa in the valve body Va is not limited to, for example, the cylindrical bottom portion, and may be provided on the side surface. The fixing member G in that case may also have an arbitrary configuration as long as it can be operated from the second opening H2.

（材質）
上記各実施形態において、水栓本体１は、真鍮やステンレス鋼、亜鉛ダイカストなど各種の金属で構成することができる。金属で構成することで質感が向上する。また、各種の樹脂材料を用いてもよい。樹脂材料で構成する場合には、表面に金属調の塗装を施すなど任意の装飾を施すことができる。 (Material)
In each of the above embodiments, the faucet body 1 can be made of various metals such as brass, stainless steel, and zinc die-cast. The texture is improved by using metal. Moreover, various resin materials may be used. When it is made of a resin material, any decoration such as a metallic coating can be applied to the surface.

固定板Ｇａもステンレス鋼などの金属材料で構成するのが好ましい。金属材料であれば高強度を有し、係止部Ｆの固定に際して薄い部材で構成した場合でも所定の強度を発揮することができる。固定板Ｇａが薄くなれば、水栓本体１の内部への装着も容易となる。 The fixing plate Ga is also preferably made of a metal material such as stainless steel. If it is a metal material, it has high strength, and even when it is made of a thin member when fixing the locking portion F, it can exhibit a predetermined strength. If the fixing plate Ga becomes thin, it becomes easy to attach the faucet body 1 to the inside.

バルブ本体ＶａやケーシングＶｃ、位置決め部材３は、各種の樹脂製であることが望ましい。樹脂製であれば、例えば通水路等の主要部の形成が容易であり、金属などに比べて熱伝導率も低い。よって、流通させる湯などの温度が低下し難く、また、水栓本体１が加熱されることによる使用時の違和感も生じない。 It is desirable that the valve body Va, the casing Vc, and the positioning member 3 are made of various resins. If it is made of resin, it is easy to form a main part such as a water passage, and its thermal conductivity is lower than that of metal or the like. Therefore, the temperature of the hot water to be distributed is unlikely to decrease, and the faucet body 1 is not heated, which causes a sense of discomfort during use.

具体的には、成形が容易な熱可塑性樹脂が好ましい。熱可塑性樹脂の中では、特に成形が容易なＰＰ（ポリプロピレン）、ＡＢＳ（アクリロニトリル、ブタジエン、スチレン共重合合成樹脂）、ＰＯＭ（ポリアセタール）、ＰＰＳ（ポリフェニレンサルファイド）が好ましい。このうちＡＢＳは剛性を備えており、ＰＰＳは高強度を備えているから機構部分が内蔵されるバルブ本体Ｖａに適している。また、ＡＢＳやＰＰＳは耐水圧機能も備えている。ＰＯＭは高い靭性を備えており形成した部材の耐久性が向上する。 Specifically, a thermoplastic resin that is easy to mold is preferable. Among the thermoplastic resins, PP (polypropylene), ABS (acrylonitrile, butadiene, styrene copolymer synthetic resin), POM (polyacetal), and PPS (polyphenylene sulfide), which are easy to mold, are particularly preferable. Of these, ABS has rigidity, and PPS has high strength, so it is suitable for the valve body Va in which the mechanical portion is built. ABS and PPS also have a water pressure resistant function. POM has high toughness and improves the durability of the formed member.

本発明に係る構成および方法は、水や湯等の液体を流通させる供給管や吐出管と、液体の流通・遮断や混合状態を切り換えるバルブ部とを水栓本体の内部で接続する構成の水栓装置に広く適用することができる。 The configuration and method according to the present invention is water having a configuration in which a supply pipe or a discharge pipe for flowing a liquid such as water or hot water and a valve portion for switching the flow / shutoff or mixing state of the liquid are connected inside the faucet body. It can be widely applied to plug devices.
