Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention is directed to a drainage port of a wash basin or the like to prevent the filtration of hair or the like or the outflow of contact lenses or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art When washing hair or washing a face with a washstand, there has been a problem that hair, contact lenses, piercings, earrings and the like flow out from a drain port.

In order to solve this problem, as a means for preventing outflow by attaching to a drain port, a steel wire made of stainless steel or the like as shown in FIG. Dome-shaped ones made of resin are provided.

[0004] While these means can be easily attached to the drain port, they have to be removed one by one when plugging in the water stoppage.

[0005] In addition, there is an unsanitary condition that the user must directly touch the object in a state where the hair, dust and the like are entangled when removing it.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a drainage port of a wash basin or the like which can be easily attached without interfering with the use of a water stopcock to prevent the outflow of hair and contact lenses. An object of the present invention is to provide a drainage filter that can be reliably prevented and can be removed without directly touching it.

[0007]

As means for solving the above-mentioned problems, a substantially circular main body made of a soft synthetic resin and forming a plurality of ripple-like circles in plan view, and a portion above and around the main body are provided. , And a plurality of pointed parts integrally formed. In the ripple-like plurality of circles forming the substantially circular main body, the smallest circle has a hole having a diameter of at least 5 mm and has a cutout on each of the plurality of circles outward from the center point of the smallest circle. . Further, a bar-shaped piece having a hook-shaped portion at one or both ends is provided.

[0008]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to examples. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a drainage outlet filter configured according to the present invention, and FIGS. 2 and 3 are plan views.

In the drawings, a drain filter 20 according to the present invention is made of a soft thermoplastic such as polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, ethylene / vinyl acetate copolymer, etc., and has a plurality of ripple-like circles in plan view. A substantially circular main body 1 to be formed and a plurality of pointed portions 3 and 3 ′ formed integrally with the main body 1 are provided above and around the main body 1.

[0010] The minimum circle constituting the plurality of ripple-like circles is
It has a hole 2 having a diameter of at least 5 mm or more, and has incisions 4 on a plurality of circles outward from the center point of the smallest circle.

In the drawings, the ribs 5 for respectively suspending a plurality of circles constituting the main body 1 are provided in a radiating manner, but are not always necessary, and at least a wall-shaped rib 6 for forming the cutout 4 is provided. Good.

The outer diameter of the drainage filter 20 has a maximum diameter, that is, a pointed portion 3 provided around the main body 1 so as to be within a dimension to be attached to the hole of the drainage, in consideration of the installation location. It is desirable that the diameter connecting the vertices of the 'is set within 35 mm.

The length and shape of the pointed portions 3 and 3 'are not particularly specified, but they are not required to be long, and may be at most 5 to 6 mm as an element capable of reliably filtering hair or the like or as a standard satisfying resin molding conditions. The degree is good. The cross section may be triangular pyramid or square.

On the other hand, the thickness of the drainage filter 20 should be set to about 15 mm including the length of the pointed portion 3.

In FIG. 3, as an embodiment of the drainage filter 20 constructed according to the present invention, the drainage filter 20 adjacent to the main body 1 via at least one of the pointed portions 3 'around the main body 1 is connected. Each of them is connected, and a hook-shaped portion 8 is provided at one end or both ends.
Is provided.

The rod-shaped piece 7 may be provided in a step different from that of the drainage filter 20, but in the embodiment of the drawing, the rod-shaped piece 7 is connected to the drainage filter 20 via at least one of the pointed portions 3 '. They are connected and share the same material.

The hook-like portions 8 provided at one end or both ends of the bar-shaped piece 7 are shaped so as to fit within the size of the hole 2 in the minimum circle.

Next, an example of use will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing a drain port of a general wash basin of a type in which water is stopped by a stopper 11 made of rubber or stainless steel and the like, and FIG. FIG.

FIG. 6 is a perspective view showing an example in which the water stopcock at the drain port is of a so-called pop-up type.

A cross or Y-shaped frame 10 for preventing foreign matter from dropping is usually provided in the middle of the drainage port 9 of the sink. The drainage filter 20 is mounted on the frame 10 with the pointed portion 3 facing upward.

When removing the drainage filter 20, the hooks 8 provided at one end or both ends of the rod 7 are inserted into the hole 2 of the smallest circle.
And the rod-shaped piece 7 is pulled up to complete the process.

On the other hand, a water stopcock 12 that can be removed by a pop-up type washstand is approximately as shown in FIG.
A plug, a stable leg, and a simple filter are continuously provided on a metal shaft 13.

The diameter of the shaft 13 of the water stopcock 12 is 5 mm.
The degree is general, and the incision 4 provided in the outlet filter 20 is widened, and the installation is completed by passing the shaft rod 13 through the hole 2 in the smallest circle.

[0024]

EFFECT OF THE INVENTION The drainage filter 2 constructed according to the present invention
No. 0 has excellent flexibility and is easy to mount because it is made of a soft synthetic resin, and the plurality of pointed portions 3, 3 'reliably prevent outflow of hair, contact lenses, and the like during hair washing or face washing.

The total thickness including the pointed part 3 is 15 m.
Since it is set to about m, it does not hinder the combined use of the water stopcock 11 even when the water stopcock 11 is installed on the frame 10 in the water outlet, and it is not necessary to remove the water outlet filter every time the water stopcock is used.

On the other hand, in a pop-up type water stopcock,
By expanding the incision 4 provided in the main body 1, the incision 4 can be easily attached to the shaft 13 of the water stopcock 12.

Further, the drainage filter 20 after use can be taken out by the bar-shaped piece 7 having the hook-like portions 8 at one end or both ends, and the filter is not directly touched.

Further, the drain outlet filter 20 can be constructed by connecting a plurality of pieces by utilizing the condition of integral molding.
Since the filter can be used by separating it for use at the time of use, there is an advantage that the remaining filter tool does not fall apart when stored.

In addition, when a plurality of the filter tools are connected, there is an advantage that the labor for packaging can be omitted.
