Description
Title: THE SCREW TAP ASSISTANCE COMBINATION
DEVICE
Technical Field
The present invention concerns a subsidiary device for combination of
hoses and other connective devices to water taps with screws. It provides a
subsidiary device for screw taps that connects various ducts and hoses to the
male screw at the bottom end of the tap for various purposes.
Background Art
In general, water taps that are used are mainly found around the kitchen
sinks and bathrooms to provide hot and cold water. There are many types and
shapes of those water taps manufactured and used for different purposes.
However, most of these water taps look and are similar to one another,
as long as they provide the hot and cold water to the kitchens and bathrooms
and they do not need to look special for purposes of interior decorations. It is
sometimes found that the taps also have rubber hoses connected to them, for
purposes of getting the water closer to where it is needed.
It is these rubber hoses that create problems in using the general types
of water taps. In supplying water to the plants on the lawn or to the car that
needs to be washed via these rubber hoses, the hoses frequently come off the
end of the tap they have been attached to due to the water pressure, thereby
making all the jobs of watering the plants and car wash much more difficult.
Subsidiary devices designed to connect the rubber hoses better to the water
taps have been developed, but not much used due to the difficulty in installing
them.
Washing machines also require continuous supply of large quantities of
water via rubber hoses with the water taps turned to their utmost ends. The high
water pressure generated in supplying the water to the washing machines also
detaches the hoses from the water taps. In order to prevent this detachment,
washing machine makers have come up with a singular hose to which a
subsidiary device for attachment to the water tap is connected. A separate
connecting device combined with the subsidiary device is fixed on the lower end
of the water tap in usage.
Among the water taps mentioned earlier are taps with screws that are
designed to facilitate connection to other connective devices, such as hoses.
Figures 1 and 2 illustrate examples of such water taps.
Figure 1 illustrates an example of the screw water tap with a connective
device (12) to which such devices as rubber hoses are designed to be tied.
There is a screw (11) at the lower bottom of the water tap (10) in this screw tap
shown in Figure 1 to connect to a separate subsidiary connective device. This is
designed to increase the user's convenience. In reality, however, when it is not
connected to the water hoses, the screw is often left unhidden or undecorated
in its bad appearance. Dirt in the screw and external pressure to it also cause it
to be abraded easily, making its lifecycle and function shorter.
The aforementioned subsidiary connective devices are generally
connected to the water taps and hoses. In order to use the tap for other
purposes, the subsidiary connective devices must be removed, which is a waste
of efforts and time. In addition, once the subsidiary connective devices designed
to connect the hoses to the taps are lost or damaged in part, other subsidiary
connective devices must be brought in or bought. In sum, the existing types of
subsidiary connective devices are time consuming, inefficient, and costly to
maintain or use.
Disclosure of Invention
The present invention concerns a subsidiary device for combination of
hoses and other connective devices to water taps with screws. It provides a
subsidiary device for screw taps that connects various ducts and hoses to the
male screw at the bottom end of the tap for various purposes.
The subsidiary connective device for screw water taps designed to fulfill
the aforementioned function consists of a cylindrical body vacant inside; a
female screw inside the said body that combines with the male screw of the
water tap; a rubber packing outside the said body; and a fixing groove outside
the said body in which the water supply hose for a washing machine is meant to
be inserted and fixed.
Besides the empty, cylindrical body surrounding the male screw of the
water tap and the female water tap inside the said cylindrical body, the
subsidiary connective device also has a spraying plate in the lower part of its
body with multiple holes for spraying.
Besides the empty, cylindrical body with the female screw inside to be
combined with the male screw of the tap, the subsidiary connective device
further consists of a fixing part inside the lower part of its body that fixes the
rubber hose. The upper end of the rubber hose connected to the said body is
inserted and fixed outside the screw water tap. The said body of the device
without the rubber hose can be connected to the male screw of the screw water
tap to be used independently.
The said rubber hose also has sills along its length so that it can be
better fixed to the said body. At certain points of the sills are cut lines designed
so that the hose can be cut more easily.
The subsidiary connective device also has the said fixing part with a
groove around the caliber of the lower part of the cylindrical body designed to fix
the rubber hose better to the tap.
Besides the cylindrical body with a female screw on its caliber, the
subsidiary connective device designed to connect and secure the rubber hose
to the tap better also has a securing part on either the caliber or external
diameter of the cylindrical body that secures the hose to the body better.
The securing part that forms an additional characteristic of the
subsidiary connective device for the screw water tap has a fixing part designed
to fix the rubber hose to the lower part of the cylindrical body. The upper end of
the rubber hose connected to the said body is inserted and fixed outside the
screw water tap. The said body of the device without the rubber hose can be
connected to the male screw of the screw water tap to be used independently.
The subsidiary connective device also has the said fixing part with a groove
around the caliber of the lower part of the cylindrical body designed to fix the
rubber hose better to the tap. Besides the empty, cylindrical body surrounding
the male screw of the water tap and the female water tap inside the said
cylindrical body, the subsidiary connective device also has a spraying plate in
the lower part of its body with multiple holes for spraying.
Besides the cylindrical body with a female screw on its caliber, the
subsidiary connective device designed to connect and secure the rubber hose
to the tap better also has a securing part on either the caliber or external
diameter of the cylindrical body that secures the hose to the body better. It has
a rubber packing on the lower external diameter of the said body and a fixing
groove on the upper part of the body to fix and secure the hose designed to
supply water to the washing machine.
The subsidiary connective device for screw taps of the present invention
is easily attachable to, and detachable from the water supply hose and secures
the hose strongly so that the hose would not fall off despite high water pressure.
It also prevents the screw of the tap from being contaminated by dirt or
disfigured by external pressure when it is not used with a hose, thereby
elongating the lifecycle of the water tap.

Best Modes for Carrying out the Invention
The functions and various advantages of the apparatus of the present
invention will be elucidated even further to those who are familiar with the
technological background of the present invention by explaining the best modes
by using the apparatus of the present invention, with references to the drawings
enclosed.
Figure 2 is a front view on one example of the subsidiary connective
device of the present invention that is designed to be used for water taps with
screws such as the one shown in Figure 1. Figure 3 is a sectional view of the
combination of the said subsidiary connective device shown in Figure 2 and a
screw water tap. Figures 4 and 5 are sectional views that show how the water
supply rubber hose can be secured to the subsidiary connective device for
screw water taps of the present invention shown in Figure 3.
As shown in Figure 3, the apparatus the present invention concerns is a
subsidiary connective device for screw water taps (100), designed to be fixed
and secured around the male screw (11) in the lower part of a water tap (10). It
does not require a separate tool or device to be fixed to the water tap, as its
female screw (111) is combined with the male screw (11) of the water tap (10).
The subsidiary connective device of the present invention to be fixed
and secured to the water tap (10) with a male screw (11) in its lower part
consists of an empty, cylindrical body (110) and a female screw (111) inside the
said cylindrical body (110) designed to combine with the male screw (11) of the
water tap (10).
The rubber packing (130) on the lower part of the cylindrical body (110)
prevents water leakage. The cylindrical body (110) also has a fixing groove
(120) in which the rubber hose (200; explained in more details in Figures 4 and
5) is to be inserted and fixed tightly.
The unexplained symbol "S" represents the said rubber packing that is
inserted and fixed around the incomplete screw of the water tap (10) and that
prevents water leakage when the subsidiary connective device (100) of the
present invention is combined with the water tap.
Part of the said cylindrical body (110) must be inserted into the opening
end (200) of the rubber hose in order for the subsidiary connective device to be
used in supplying water to a washing machine. As shown in Figures 4 and 5,
the female screw (111) of the said body (110) is engaged to the male screw (11)
at the lower part of the water tap (10). As shown in Figure 4, in order to insert
the opening end (200) of the rubber hose in the lower part of the body (110) of
the subsidiary device that has been secured by the screws, the fixing cap (210)
with certain elasticity outside the opening end (200) of the rubber hose is
pushed downward, whereas the ball for fixing (220) is inserted into the fixing
groove (12) of the said body (110). By letting the fixing cap (210) go as shown in
Figure 5, the ball for fixing (220) is inserted further inside the body (110) by
means of a spring, thereby securing the ball for fixing (220) in the fixing groove
(120) of the said body (110).
Therefore, the subsidiary connective device of the present invention is
fixed around the tap (10) by means of screws. It does not require a separate
connecting tool, since it is connected to an opening end (200) of the water
supply rubber hose (300) by a ball for fixing (220). Because the device stays
secured and connected tightly around the tap and the hose, the hose (300)
does not easily fall off the device despite the high water pressure.
Figure 6 is a sectional view that illustrates another example of the
subsidiary connective device of the present invention used for screw water taps.
Figure 7 is a plane figure that shows the subsidiary connective device of the
present invention for screw water taps shown in Figure 6. The subsidiary
connective device (100A) illustrated in these figures consists of an empty,
cylindrical body (110A) that surrounds the male screw (11) of the water tap; a
female screw (111A) inside the cylindrical body (110A) that is designed to
engage to the male screw (11) of the water tap (10); and a spraying plate (140)
with multiple spraying holes (140) in the lower part of the said body (110A).
Another example of the subsidiary connective device (100A) was
designed to protect the water tap (10) and its male screw (11) from the external
environment so that the male screw (11) will not be contaminated by dirt or
damaged. The short cylindrical body (110A) surrounds the male screw (11) for
that purpose, as shown in Figure 6.
The subsidiary connective device combines with the water tap (10) by
means of the female screw (111A) inside its cylindrical body (110A). As shown
in Figure 7, the spraying plate (140) in the lower part of the cylindrical body
enables spraying and concentration of the water stream, thereby protecting the
male screw (11) of the water tap (10) and enabling usage of the water for
various purposes.
Although the figures that have been cited so far show standard types of
the cylindrical bodies (110, 110A) of the subsidiary connective device of the
present invention, the said body can be modified in various forms and shapes
as long as it has a female screw (111) combined with the male screw (11) of the
water tap (10), combines with an opening end (200) of the rubber hose, and
fixes the hose in its fixing groove (120).
Although the standard examples of the cited figures show a spraying
plate (140) formed in the lower part of the main body of the subsidiary
connective device, a separate set of a spraying device with a rotary spraying
hole may be used instead.
Figure 8 is a plane figure that shows another example of the subsidiary
connective device of the present invention to be combined with the screw water
tap shown in Figure 1. Figure 9 is a sectional view that illustrates cylindrical
body of the subsidiary connective device shown in Figure 8 detached from a
rubber hose. Figure 10 illustrates an example of using the subsidiary connective
device of the present invention shown in Figure 8.
The subsidiary connective device of the present invention that is
designed to connect the rubber hose to the water tap with a screw requires a
water tap (10) that has a screw (11) and a connecting part (12) of certain length
in its lower part. The subsidiary device consists of an empty, cylindrical body
(410) with a female screw (411) designed to be engaged to the male screw (11),
and a rubber-hose-connecting device (400) with a fixing part (412) designed to
secure the rubber hose (420) in the lower part of the said body (410).
The upper end of the rubber hose (420) connected to the said body is
inserted and fixed outside the connecting part (12) of the screw water tap. The
said body (410) of the device without the rubber hose (420) can be connected
to the male screw (11) of the screw water tap (10) to be used independently.
The said rubber hose (420) also has sills (421) along its length so that it
can be better fixed to the fixing part (412) of the said body (410). At certain
points of the sills (421) are cut lines (422) designed so that the hose can be cut
more easily.
The subsidiary connective device also has the said fixing part (412) with
a groove (412A) around the caliber of the lower part of the cylindrical body (410)
designed to fix the rubber hose (420) better to the tap.
The unexplained symbol "S" represents the said rubber packing that is
inserted and fixed around the incomplete screw (11) of the water tap (10) and
that prevents water leakage when the subsidiary connective device (410) of the
present invention is combined with the water tap.
The subsidiary connective device of the present invention with the
composition described above is used in combination with the water tap (10) with
a male screw (11) in its lower part and a connecting part (12) of certain length
that can be combined with the hoses. In this type of the device shown in Figure
9, the rubber hose (420) with sills for hanging (421) along its length is combined
with the empty cylindrical body (410).
As shown in Figure 9, the female screw (411) that engages to the male
screw (11) of the screw water tap (10) is located inside the said cylindrical body
(410), below which are the fixing part (412) and the fixing groove (412) that
combine the device with the rubber hose. These two elements contract the end
of the rubber hose (420) to be connected to the device to downsize the
diameter of the hose so that it can be inserted into the said cylindrical body
(410). The sills for hanging (421) of the rubber hose (420) are inserted and fixed
in the fixing groove (412A) of the fixing part (412) below the said body (410).
As shown in Figure 10, the upper end of the rubber hose (420) is
inserted into the device combined with the connecting part (12) of the screw
water tap (10). The female screw (412) of the device body (410) is tightly
engaged to the male screw (11) of the screw water tap (10) to secure the device
to the tap.
Because the fine gap between the female screw (412) of the said body
(410) and the male screw (11) might cause water leakage, a rubber packing (S)
is rapped around the male screw (11) of the screw water tap to prevent it.
Thus, the main body (410) of the device can be easily attached to the
water tap (10) by means of screw engagement. The unfixed end of the rubber
hose (420) connected to the main body (410) can be handled to water the
plants on the lawn or wash cars, while the hose (20) remains tightly secured
and fixed.
Taking into account the fact that the rubber hoses are sometimes
randomly cut and used, on the rubber hose (20) are cut lines (422) with certain
intervals between one another that enables the rubber hose (420) to be cut
along the lines (422) and attached to the main body (410).
As shown in Figure 11 , when the rubber hose (420) is not used, the
connecting end of the rubber hose (420) connected to the lower fixing groove
(412A) of the main body (410) can be contracted to form a gap so that the main
body (410) and the rubber hose (420) can be separated.
The separated main body (410) is attached to the male screw (11) of the
screw water tap in order to protect the male screw (11) of the tap (10) from
external contamination and pressure.
Although a cylindrical, empty body has been used to describe the
examples of the device of the present invention, the main body of the device
(410A) can be modified in terms of its shape to resemble another polygon or
can be given a handle (413) so that the body can be turned and handled better,
as shown in Figure 12.
As described so far, there are many modifications and applications of
the apparatus of the present invention possible. Thus, those modifications and
applications, made upon the basis of the original idea and scope of the present
invention submitted for patent, shall be considered as falling under the scope of
the patent application of the present invention.
