- Generally, when new buildings such as house or apartment are constructed or old buildings are under extension working, cold/hot water pipes from outdoor are guided into a distribution device installed at bottom side of a sink, or in a built-in chest of drawers or dress-room or the like, which is, in turn, connected to each of places requiring the water such as toilet, bathroom, boiler room and/or multi-purpose place.
- Herein, in consideration of a cold/hot water pipeline leading to each of the places in demand from the distribution device, a pipe passes through inside of a Zebra-type pipe protection housing with a bent member on outer side thereof and through the floor of a room or a living room as encased by the housing, then goes to a toilet or a bathroom, by connecting each of the water field boxes mounted at an entrance of each room by means of connection pipes in order to supply cold/hot water to the bathtub, the washstand, the toilet bowel and so on.
- Such conventional way to bury the water field box into floor has a difficulty to repair the water field box, more particularly, involves disadvantages that it is difficult to visibly monitor the cold/hot water pipeline or the water field box hidden in the floor when there is a damage and/or a water leakage of the cold/hot water pipeline or the water field box, then it should require to dig out and excavate the floor and loot into the pipeline or the box in detail and, after completing the examination, the pipeline or the box must be buried again in the floor.
- Therefore, it is recently proposed a method that directly encloses the water field box in a wall adjacent to a desired place such as the toilet or the bathroom, instead of the conventional method for hiding the water field box in the floor or ground.
- However, the water field box directly encased in the wall has the cold/hot water pipeline passing through inner space thereof and a connection pipeline between a multiple water field boxes which are made of metal or synthetic resin and comprises a general form of several pipes, and the pipes are individually separated when it requires examination of the interior condition of the water field box or repair work thereof, then, after finishing the work, are combined together in the reverse order.
- Accordingly, such water field box has drawbacks such as inconvenience for working and long time required and needs a complicated procedure of decomposing the water field box during the working process and of combining again in the reverse order.
- The present invention relates to a water field box to be hidden in wall including a case having a flexible hose for connecting a soft duct and a water field inside, and a plate for opening/closing the case (abbreviated to “the opening/closing plate”); wherein the flexible hose is coupled to the soft duct protected by a flexible bellow pipe through a socket having different diameters at one end and also coupled to the water field at the other end, the opening/closing plate has a frictional protrusion and a hole for repairing the plate (abbreviated to “the repair hole”), and a flange member around outline of the hole to be opened/closed by an opening plate, the socket having different diameters is for inserting and fitting a connection pipe of the water field and coupled to the opening plate through a socket inserting port and a threshold, both being formed on a part of the opening plate, and, at the same time, coupled and integrated with the flexible hose.
