Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本新発明は、温水洗浄便座装置その他の水回り装置における配管連結部に使用されるクランプ装置に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
周知のように、温水洗浄便座装置においては、配管連結部(分岐栓と給水ホースとの連結部や操作パネル本体と給水ホースとの連結部)は、一方の配管の端部内に他方の配管の端部を嵌入する態様となっている。しかして、前者から後者に水が流れる際、当該水圧(特にウオータハンマー)が後者の端面に作用し、後者を前者から引き抜く危惧があることから、配管連結部は、堅牢に保持されねばない。このため、従来は、配管連結部においては、2本の配管上に共通のナットを螺着にて外嵌していた。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、上記した温水洗浄便座装置はトイレ空間内に設置された便器に装着されており、トイレ空間は狭小であるので、上記したナットの螺着作業は困難をきわめ、改善が要望されていた。
【0004】
それ故に、本新発明は、温水洗浄便座装置の配管連結部の堅牢保持を簡単に行える装置を提供することを、その技術的課題とするものである。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記した技術的課題を解決するために講じた技術的手段は、請求項1に示すように、「断面が略C型で穴が形成された樹脂製の本体と、前記本体の開口部を介して前記穴の内部に着脱自在に嵌装され且つ断面が略C型の金属製クランプ体と、前記本体の開口部の一方側に基部が枢動自在に連結され且つ遊端が前記本体の開口部の他方側に着脱自在に係止されるカバー体を備え、温水洗浄便座装置その他の水回り装置の配管連結部が前記本体及び前記金属製クランプ体の双方の開口部をしてスナップアクションをなさしめ、且つ前記カバー体の遊端が前記本体の開口部の他方側に係止されるようにした、クランプ装置。」を構成したことである。
【0006】
【発明の実施の形態】
本新発明の具体例を、添付図面に基づいて説明する。
【0007】
図1において、クランプ装置10は、断面が略C型穴12aが形成された樹脂製の本体12を備える。しかして、本体12の開口部12bは、一対の対向する弾性を有する脚部12c・12c間に画成されており、脚部12c・12c間の狭小部の長さは、穴12aの直径より小さく設定されている。
【0008】
また、本体12には、開口部12bに関して1対のスロット16・16が対称的に刻設されており、スロット16・16の開口部12b側の端部は棒体12e・12eとなっている。
【0009】
クランプ装置10は、また、断面が略C型の金属製クランプ体11を備える。金属製クランプ体11の開口部14は、一対の対向する弾性を有する脚部11c・11c間に画成されており、脚部11c・11c間の狭小部の長さは、穴11aの直径より小さく設定されている。
【0010】
また、金属製クランプ体11には、開口部14に関して、上側に位置する一対のスロット30・30並びに下側に位置する一対のスロット31・31対称的に刻設されており、スロット30(30)とスロット31(31)の間には径外方向に突出する凸部13(13)が形成されている。尚、スロット31・31は、脚部11c・11c内に刻設されている。
【0011】
かような構成を備える金属製クランプ体11は、脚部11c・11cを手でつまんで相互に近接させる態様つまり縮径した状態で、本体12の開口部12bを通過させて穴12a内に挿入させた後、手を放すと、金属製クランプ体11が拡開して元の状態に復帰する。そして、金属製クランプ体11の凸部13・13は、本体12の棒体12e・12eと係合すると共に本体12のスロット16・16が金属製クランプ体11のスロット30・30と重畳する。
【0012】
また、図1、図2及び図3に示されるように、本体12の穴12aの開口部12bの一方側の脚部12cにはカバー体17の基部17aが一体成型されている。しかして基部17aは薄肉状となっており、カバー体17は一方側の脚部12cに枢動自在に連結されることになる。一方、カバー体17の二股状の遊端部17bには突起18(一方のみ図示)が形成されており、カバー体17の二股状の遊端部17bを枢動せしめて本体12の他方側の脚部12c方向に変移させると、図3に示すように、突起18が本体12に形成された凹部15に係止して、後述するように、配管連結部がロックされるようになっている。
【0013】
配管連結の例を、図4、図5及び図6に依拠して説明する。分岐金具20の主要部をなす分岐栓21と本体給水ホース22との連結は、本体給水ホース22の先端部23が、Oリング(図示略)を外装された後、分岐栓21に嵌入されることによりなされるが、この配管連結を堅牢に保持するために、クランプ装置10が用いられる。すなわち、前記した嵌入がなされると、分岐栓21のフランジ21aと本体給水ホース22の先端部23のフランジ23aが対向して面接触状態つまり係合状態となる。開放状態にある図2に示すクランプ装置10の本体12の開口部12b(金属製クランプ体11の開口部14は、開口部12bに内包される)を、対向面接触係合状態にある分岐栓21のフランジ21a及び本体給水ホース22の先端部23のフランジ23a上つまり配管連結部上に持っていき、しかる後にクランプ装置10の本体12の開口部12bを下降させれば、分岐栓21のフランジ21a及び本体給水ホース22の先端部23のフランジ23aは、開口部12b(開口部14)に対してスナップアクションを起こさしめた後に、穴12a(穴11a)内に挿入され、特に図5及び図6から明瞭に理解されるように、スロット16・16(スロット30・30)内に嵌着される。そして、この嵌着状態にある配管連結部は、カバー体17を凹部15側の脚部12c側に回動変移せしめ、突起18を凹部15内に嵌合させれば、ロックされて、本体12及び金属製クランプ体11からの離脱が不能となる。
【0014】
上記した作業は、図2に示す開放状態にあるクランプ装置10を、配管連結部方向に変移嵌着してロックするだけであるので、配管連結部が狭小な空間に位置していても、工具なしで、容易に行える。
【0015】
尚、図7に示すように、本体給水ホース26の先端部26aを給水ソケット24の先端部24a内に挿入し、本体給水ホース26の先端部26aのフランジ25が本体給水ホース26の先端部26a上のフランジ27とが係合状態になっても、クランプ装置10を用いて、上記した態様で、配管連結部を堅牢に保持できる。
【0016】
以上、本新発明の具体例について説明したが、本新発明は上述した具体例に限定されるものではなく、本新発明の趣旨に沿った形態の方法・装置であれば、どのようなものでもよい。
【0017】
【発明の効果】
以上述べたように、本新発明によれば、開放状態にあるクランプ装置を、配管連結部方向に変移嵌着してロックするだけであるので、配管連結部が狭小な空間に位置していても、工具なしで、取り付け作業を容易に行える。
