【発明の属する技術分野】
この発明は、流し台や洗面台等のキャビネットに設けられる点検口を塞ぐために用いられる蓋体の着脱を容易に行うことができる点検口への蓋体の取付方法及び該取付方法に用いられる取付具に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
周知のように、流し台や洗面台などのキャビネットの背板には、該キャビネットが設置される建物側に配置されてなる設備との間で給水管や給湯管、排水管の接続工事を行い、或は、その点検、補修を行うための点検口が開設されている。
【0003】
このような点検口の形成例を、図11に示す洗面台キャビネット1を例にとり説明すると、該洗面台キャビネット1は、略箱形で、上面に洗面ボール3や混合水栓2を設け、また、その前面には、開閉扉4をその一端で開閉自在に軸支し、洗面ボール3の下方に収納部5を形成している。
【0004】
このように構成されてなる洗面台キャビネット1は、建物内の所定位置に設置して使用されるものであるが、その際には、混合水栓2に接続された配管(図示せず)や洗面ボール3と連通した排水管3aなどを建物側に設けられた給水管や給湯管、排水管(いずれも図示せず)と接続する。この接続は、通常、洗面台キャビネット1を所定の位置に配置した後、その後方で行うので、洗面台キャビネット1の背板10には、この作業を行ったり、或は、設置後の点検を行うための点検口10aを設けている。そして、この背板10の前面には、洗面台キャビネット1の収納部5側から着脱が行えるように蓋体11を取り付け、点検口10aを閉じている。
【0005】
この点検口10aは、従来、キャビネット9の背板10に形成され、この背板10の四隅部を、ねじ12を介して蓋体11で固定し閉塞している。そして、設置工事や点検の際には、このねじ12を緩めて背板10から蓋体11を取り外し、キャビネット9の後方に位置する配管の接続部を点検口10aから操作できるように構成されている。また、接続、点検、補修作業の終了後は、点検口10aの前面に元のように蓋体11をねじ12で固定するように構成されていた。
【0006】
このような構成からなる上記従来の点検口10aを開閉する蓋体11の取付方法にあっては、一般的にキャビネット9の背板10が比較的薄く形成されているため、ねじ12による螺合力が弱く、その保持が不十分であった。そのため、従来では、図12に示すように、上記背板10の裏側にねじ12をねじ込むための補強部材13を取り付けているのが現状である。
【0007】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、上記従来のねじ12を用いた蓋体11の取付方法にあっては、背板10の裏側にねじ12をねじ込むための補強部材13を取り付ける必要があるため、流し台や洗面台などのキャビネット9を製作する際に、この補強部材13を取り付けなければならないため、かかる作業が非常に煩雑であり、コスト高となる、という問題を有していた。
【0008】
また、この従来のねじ12を用いた蓋体11の取付方法にあっては、該蓋体11の着脱を、キャビネット9の内奥部の狭小で、かつ、薄暗いスペースにおいて、ねじ12の着脱操作をドライバーなどの工具を用いて行わなくてはならず、しかも、蓋体11の取り付けの際には、背板10に設けられたねじ穴との位置合わせも必要となるため、該取付作業が非常に困難であると共に、作業時間も多く要するという問題も有していた。
【0009】
加えて、この従来のねじ12を用いた蓋体11の取付方法にあっては、ねじ12の着脱を繰り返すうちに、ねじ12とねじ穴との螺合強度が緩くなり、蓋体11が不用意に脱落する虞があるという問題も有していた。
【0010】
この発明は、かかる現状に鑑み創案されたものであって、その目的とするところは、点検口を開閉する蓋体の着脱作業を、補強材や特別な工具を用いることなく簡単に行なうことができ、蓋体の取付強度を経時安定的に保持することができ、しかも、構造が簡単で廉価に提供することができる点検口への蓋体の取付方法及び該取付方法に用いられる取付具を提供しようとするものである。
【0011】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記目的を達成するため、請求項1に記載の発明に係る点検口の蓋の取付方法では、板体に形成された点検口のL字状に形成された各隅部に嵌合される溝部を有するレール部と、このレール部と一体に形成され点検口を塞ぐ蓋体の裏面側が当接自在な奥行側係止体と、上記蓋体を嵌合係止自在な間隔寸法を有して上記奥行側係止体と対設された手前側係止体と、を有して構成されてなる取付具を点検口の少なくとも2箇所の隅部に装着した後、該取付具の手前側係止体と奥行側係止体との間に蓋体のコーナー部を嵌合係止して、点検口を蓋体で閉塞するように構成したことを特徴とするものである。
【0012】
また、この発明にあっては、上記目的を達成する他の手段として、請求項2に記載したように、前記取付具の手前側係止体を、可撓性を有する線状体で形成し、該線状体は、蓋体を嵌合係止する際には、取付具のレール部に沿う形状に変形自在であり、かつ、蓋体が取付具に装着されセットされた際には、上記線状体は、蓋体の中心方向に湾曲状に突出変形するように構成し、上記蓋体の着脱作業時に、上記線状体を変形させることを、上記点検口を蓋体で閉塞するように構成したことを特徴とするものである。
【0013】

【0016】
さらに、この発明にあっては、前記取付具の奥行側係止体と手前側係止体を、請求項6に記載したように、前記レール部と平行に配設して構成することで、蓋体を背板と面一に保持することができる。
【0017】
また、蓋体を背板の前面側で保持するタイプのものに本発明を適用する場合には、請求項7に記載したように、前記取付具の奥行側係止体と手前側係止体を、前記レール部より手前側に配設して構成したことを特徴とするものである。
【0018】
【発明の実施の形態】
【0019】
以下、添付図面に示す実施の形態例に基き、この発明を詳細に説明する。
【0020】
図1乃至図3は、この発明の実施の第1形態例に係る取付方法による点検口10aの蓋体11の取付例を示しており、適用される洗面台等のキャビネットは、従来例で示したものと同様であるので、図面には、従来例(図6及び図7)で用いた符号と同一の符号を付して、その詳細な説明をここでは省略する。
【0021】
本形態例に係る取付方法では、背板10に形成された点検口10aのL字状に形成された各隅部に嵌合されるL字状に形成された溝部8Bを有するレール部8Aと、このレール部8Aと一体に形成され点検口10aを塞ぐ蓋体11の裏面側が当接自在な奥行側係止体8Cと、上記蓋体11を嵌合係止自在な間隔寸法8Dを有して上記奥行側係止体8Cと対設された手前側係止体8Eと、を有して構成されてなる合成樹脂製或は金属製で形成された取付具8を、図3に示すように、点検口10aの下側両隅部に装着した後、該取付具8の手前側係止体8Eと奥行側係止体8Cとの間に上記蓋体11のコーナー部11A,11Bを嵌合し係止させて、点検口10aを蓋体11で閉塞するように構成されている。
【0022】
上記、取付具8のレール部8Aは、断面形状が略凹状に形成されており、その内径寸法は、点検口10aの厚さ寸法と略同じ寸法に形成されている。
【0023】
また、上記取付具8の奥行側係止体8Cと手前側係止体8Eは、図1からも明らかなように、夫々1/4円形の板体で形成されていると共に、該手前側係止体8Eを上記奥行側係止体8Cよりも小さく、具体的には、蓋体11の挿脱作業を容易に行なうことができ、しかも、蓋体11を装着した後には、該蓋体11を確実に係止保持できる大きさに形成されている。
【0024】
尚、図2に示すように、この形態例では、蓋体11の上辺部を本取付具8とは異なる取付具18で保持するように構成されており、該取付具18は、例えば、側面形状が略H字状に構成されたものが用いられる。また、蓋体11も、この形態例では、点検口10aに嵌合される大きさに形成されている。
【0025】
次に、この点検口10aを蓋体11で塞ぐ場合の取付方法について説明すると、まず、点検口10aの上辺部に取付具18,18を嵌合係止させ、また、点検口10aの下側両隅部に取付具8,8のレール部8Aを嵌合して取り付ける。
【0026】
次に、蓋体11の下辺両端部11A,11Bを両取付具8の奥行側係止体8Cと手前側係止体8Eとの間に差込み、嵌合保持させると共に、蓋板11の上辺部を取付具18,18の下凹溝に差込み、嵌合保持させることで、点検口10aを蓋体11で閉じることができる。勿論、蓋体11を取り外す場合には、上記取付手順と逆の手順で蓋体11を容易に取り外すことができる。
【0027】
尚、上記取付方法では、取付具8,8を点検口10aの下辺両端部に取り付け、他方の取付具18,18を点検口10aの上辺部に嵌合係止した場合を例にとり説明したが、この発明にあってはこれに限定されるものではなく、上記取付方法とは逆に、図4に示すように、取付具8,8を点検口10aの上辺部に取り付け、他方の取付具18,18を点検口10aの下辺両端部に嵌合係止するように構成してもよい。
【0028】
図5は、蓋板11を背板の手前側で保持するタイプの取付方法に用いられる本発明の第2形態例に係る取付方法に用いられる取付具8を示しており、この形態例では、前記レール部8Aの手前側に、垂直片部8Fと水平片部8Gとで正面形状が略L字状に形成されてなる棚部を形成し、該棚部に前記奥行側係止体8Cと手前側係止体8Eを配設し、該奥行側係止体8Cと手前側係止体8Eとの間に蓋板11の両端部を差込み保持するように構成したものである。
【0029】
図6乃至図9は、この発明の第3形態例に係る取付方法に用いられる取付具8を示しており、この形態例では、手前側係止体8E1が第2形態例に係る取付具8と異なる他は、他の構成は第2形態例と同様に構成されているので、図面には第2形態例と同一の符号を付して、その詳細な説明をここでは省略する。
【0030】
即ち、この形態例に係る取付具8の手前側係止体8E1は、バネ材或は合成樹脂材等の可撓性を有する線状体で形成されており、該線状体で形成された手前側係止体8E1は、蓋体11を嵌合係止する際には、図7に示すように、取付具8のレール部8Aに沿う略C字状に変形するので、蓋体11のコーナー部を、図9に示すように、点検口10aの四隅部に装着された各取付具8の奥行側係止体8Cに当接するように容易に押し込めることができ、かつ、蓋体11が取付具8に装着され上記状態にセットされた際には、上記手前側係止体8E1を、蓋体11の中心方向に湾曲状に突出変形するように、即ち、略逆C字状に変形させることで、蓋体11を脱落しないように係止することができるので、蓋体11の着脱作業を非常に簡単に行なうことができる。
【0031】
図10は、上記第3形態例に係る取付具8の変形例(第4形態例)を示しており、第3形態例では、蓋板11が、図8に示すように、点検口10aと略同じ大きさに形成されている場合に用いられる構造からなる取付具8を示しているが、本形態例では、蓋板11が点検口10aよりも大きく形成されている場合に用いられる取付具8を示しており、この形態例では、垂直片部8Fをレール部8Aの自由端部と同じ位置となるように形成し、該垂直片部8Fの下端部から水平片部8Gを連設した他は、他の構成・作用は第3形態例の取付具8と同様であるので、図面には第3形態例で用いた符号と同一の符号を付して、その詳細な説明をここでは省略する。
【0032】
尚、上記形態例では、洗面台の背板に形成した点検口10aに蓋体11を取り付けるようにした例を示したが、本発明方法で、あるいは本発明の取付具を用いて蓋体が取り付けられる点検口10aは、板体に形成されたものであればよく、洗面台の他、流し台や風呂などの点検口であってもよい。
【0033】
またさらに、上記各形態例では、本発明方法で取り付けられる蓋体11として板状のものを示したが、この蓋体11には排水管などの挿通孔などが形成されたもの(図示せず)を用いることもできる。
【0034】
【発明の効果】
この発明に係る点検口への蓋体の取付方法及び該取付方法に用いられる取付具は、以上のように構成されているので、蓋体の着脱作業を極めて容易かつ短時間に行え、洗面台や流し台を設置する際の配管接続工事やその後のメンテナンスが行い易くなる。
【0035】
また、本発明方法に用いられる取付具は、ドライバー等の工具を用いることなく、簡単に蓋板に取り付けることができ、しかも、構成が簡易なので、廉価に提供することができる。
【0036】
また、点検口の周囲にねじ止め用の補強部材を取り付けたりする必要が無くなるので、点検口を設けた製品の生産性が向上すると共に、そのコストダウンを図ることができる等の優れた効果を奏する。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a method of attaching a lid to an inspection port that can easily attach and detach a lid used to close an inspection port provided in a cabinet such as a sink or a washstand, and a fixture used in the attachment method. About.
[0002]
[Prior art]
As is well known, on the back plate of a cabinet such as a sink or a wash basin, a water supply pipe, a hot water supply pipe, and a connection work of a drain pipe are performed with equipment arranged on the building side where the cabinet is installed, Alternatively, an inspection opening for performing the inspection and repair is provided.
[0003]
An example of forming such an inspection port will be described with reference to a wash basin cabinet 1 shown in FIG. 11 as an example. The wash basin cabinet 1 is substantially box-shaped, provided with a wash bowl 3 and a mixing faucet 2 on the upper surface, and On the front surface, an opening / closing door 4 is pivotally supported at one end so as to be freely opened and closed, and a storage portion 5 is formed below the washbasin ball 3.
[0004]
The wash basin cabinet 1 configured as described above is used by being installed at a predetermined position in a building. In this case, a pipe (not shown) connected to the mixing faucet 2 and A drain pipe 3a and the like communicating with the wash bowl 3 are connected to a water supply pipe, a hot water supply pipe, and a drain pipe (all not shown) provided on the building side. This connection is usually made after the wash basin cabinet 1 is placed at a predetermined position, and thereafter, the work is performed on the back plate 10 of the wash basin cabinet 1 or inspection after installation is performed. An inspection port 10a for performing the inspection is provided. A lid 11 is attached to the front surface of the back plate 10 so that the lid 11 can be attached to and detached from the storage section 5 of the sink cabinet 1, and the inspection port 10a is closed.
[0005]
Conventionally, the inspection opening 10a is formed in the back plate 10 of the cabinet 9, and four corners of the back plate 10 are fixed and closed by screws 11 via screws 12. At the time of installation work and inspection, the screw 12 is loosened and the lid 11 is removed from the back plate 10 so that the pipe connection located at the rear of the cabinet 9 can be operated from the inspection port 10a. I have. After the connection, inspection, and repair work are completed, the lid 11 is fixed to the front surface of the inspection port 10a with the screw 12 as before.
[0006]
In the above-described conventional mounting method of the lid 11 that opens and closes the inspection port 10a, since the back plate 10 of the cabinet 9 is generally formed to be relatively thin, the screwing force by the screw 12 is generally used. Was weak and its retention was insufficient. Therefore, conventionally, as shown in FIG. 12, a reinforcing member 13 for screwing the screw 12 is attached to the back side of the back plate 10 at present.
[0007]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in the conventional method of mounting the lid 11 using the screws 12, it is necessary to mount the reinforcing member 13 for screwing the screws 12 to the back side of the back plate 10, so that cabinets such as sinks and washstands are required. Since the reinforcing member 13 has to be attached when manufacturing No. 9, there has been a problem that such an operation is very complicated and costly.
[0008]
In addition, in this conventional method of attaching the lid 11 using the screw 12, the attachment and detachment of the lid 11 is performed in a small and dim space inside the cabinet 9 by attaching and detaching the screw 12. Must be performed using a tool such as a screwdriver, and when the lid 11 is attached, it is necessary to align the screw with the screw hole provided on the back plate 10. It is very difficult and requires a long working time.
[0009]
In addition, in the conventional mounting method of the lid 11 using the screw 12, as the screw 12 is repeatedly attached and detached, the screwing strength between the screw 12 and the screw hole is loosened, and the lid 11 is not fitted. There is also a problem that there is a risk of falling off easily.
[0010]
The present invention has been made in view of the above situation, and an object of the present invention is to easily perform an attaching / detaching operation of a lid for opening and closing an inspection port without using a reinforcing material or a special tool. A method for mounting the lid to the inspection port, which can stably maintain the mounting strength of the lid over time, and can be provided at a low cost with a simple structure, and a mounting tool used for the mounting method. It is something to offer.
[0011]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to achieve the above object, in the method for attaching a lid for an inspection port according to the first aspect of the present invention, a groove fitted to each of the L-shaped corners of the inspection port formed on the plate body. A depth-side locking member integrally formed with the rail portion and closing the inspection opening, the back side of the lid abutting freely, and a spacing dimension capable of fitting and locking the lid. After attaching a fixture comprising the above-mentioned depth-side latching body and a near-side latching body opposite to the front-side latching body to at least two corners of the inspection port, The corner portion of the lid is fitted and locked between the stop body and the depth side locking body, and the inspection port is closed by the lid.
[0012]
According to the present invention, as another means for achieving the above object, as described in claim 2, the front side locking body of the mounting tool is formed of a flexible linear body. The linear body can be deformed into a shape along the rail of the fixture when fitting and locking the lid, and when the lid is mounted and set on the fixture, The linear body is configured so as to protrude and deform in the shape of a curve in the center direction of the lid, and at the time of attaching / detaching the lid, the inspection port is closed by the lid to deform the linear body. It is characterized by having such a configuration.
[0013]
The mounting tool used in each of the mounting methods described above is a rail having a groove that is fitted to each of the L-shaped corners of the inspection opening formed in the plate body, as described in claim 3. Part, a depth side locking body formed integrally with the rail part and closing the inspection port, the back side of which is freely contactable, and the depth side having a spacing dimension capable of fitting and locking the lid. It is characterized by comprising a locking body and a front locking body opposite to the locking body.
[0014]
In this case, the depth-side locking body and the front-side locking body are each formed of a quarter-circular plate, and the front-side locking body is connected to the depth-side locking body. It is desirable that the lid be formed smaller than the stopper so that the attachment / detachment work of the lid can be easily performed.
[0015]
Further, the front-side locking body of the attachment is formed of a flexible linear body as described in claim 5, and the linear body is used when fitting and locking the lid. Can be deformed into a shape along the rail of the fixture, and when the lid is attached to the fixture and set, the linear body protrudes and deforms in a curved shape toward the center of the lid. By doing so, the attachment / detachment work of the lid can be performed more easily.
[0016]
Further, according to the present invention, as described in claim 6, the depth side locking body and the near side locking body of the mounting tool are arranged in parallel with the rail portion, and are configured. The lid can be held flush with the back plate.
