【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、浴室排水口用ヌメリ取り器に関し、詳しくは、微生物の発育抑制物質を含有する固形薬剤により、浴室の排水口や排水管内壁に発生するヌメリを簡便に防除することができる、浴室排水口への使用に適したヌメリ取り器に関する。
【０００２】
【従来の技術】
一般に浴室の排水口にあっては髪の毛や湯垢等のゴミを漉すために、メッシュやスリットからなる排水口の蓋（目皿）が設けられているが、目皿の目を透過した毛髪や湯垢等の細かなゴミが排水口や排水管内壁に付着し、これらが細菌の温床となり、異臭の発生やヌメリの原因となっていた。この問題を解決するために、排水の透過・流入を妨げない目の細かいシートやフィルターや網等を排水口の目皿を覆うように取り付けることによって、細かいゴミを補集する様々なゴミ取り具が知られている（例えば、特許文献１、特許文献２、特許文献３、特許文献４、特許文献５参照）。しかし、これらのゴミ取り具では、シートやフィルター等に停留した毛髪、石鹸、人の垢、界面活性剤等が細菌の栄養源となって、それら自体にヌメリが発生するばかりでなく、通水性が悪化するという問題があった。また、台所流し台や浴室の排水口のヌメリの主成分は、食材、界面活性剤、石鹸、人の垢等を栄養源とする細菌から分泌されるポリサッカライドであることが知られている。本発明者らは、このような問題を解決するために、固形薬剤を用いた浴室等の排水口用のヌメリ取り器等を既に数多く開発している。
【０００３】
本発明者らは、微生物の発育抑制物質を含有する固形薬剤と、排水口の入口部又は上部に設置可能な形状をした、該固形薬剤を収納する容器とからなり、該容器が、容器の上面及び／又は側面上部に設けられたゴミの流入を抑制する構造を有する排水流入孔と、容器の底部もしくは側面下部又はこれに加えて側面に設けられた溶解液流出孔と、排水の多くが固形薬剤と接触することなく排水口へ流下する構造とを有する、固形薬剤の溶解液をヌメリ発生壁面に広がらせることができる排水口用ヌメリ取り器を提案している（特許文献６参照）。
【０００４】
また、本発明者は、微生物の発育抑制物質を含有する固形物と、該固形物を収納する収納容器とからなり、該収納容器が、固形物に排水を接触させるための排水導入開口部と、排水に溶解した薬液の流出開口部と、収納容器を排水口の目皿の表裏いずれかの少なくとも一方の面に固定することができる固定部とを備えた排水口用ヌメリ取り器を提案している（特許文献７参照）。
【０００５】
さらに、本発明者は、微生物の発育抑制物質を含有する固形薬剤と、排水の流入と溶解液の流出が可能な前記固形薬剤を収納する薬剤容器と、該薬剤容器を挿着することができ、排水口の入口部又は上部に設置可能な形状をした蓋部とからなるヌメリ取り具において、前記蓋部が上蓋部と下蓋部とから構成され、上蓋部には、前記薬剤容器をその中心付近に挿着するための挿入口と、その上面を利用して排水の一部を前記薬剤容器中の固形薬剤と接触させるための導水部と、排水の多くを前記薬剤容器中の固形薬剤と接触させることなく排水するための陥入切開部とが設けられ、下蓋部には、前記上蓋部の挿入口から挿着された薬剤容器を所定の位置に保持するための当接部と、薬剤容器から流出した固形薬剤の溶解液をヌメリ発生面に広がらせるための外周下部に設けられた複数の溶解液排出孔と、前記上蓋部の陥入切開部からの排水を固形薬剤の溶解液と接触させることなく排水するための切欠きを囲む立設部とが設けられている排水口用ヌメリ取り具を提案している（特許文献８参照）。

【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明者らは、さらに、排水口の目皿の上に目皿を覆うように装着することができ、ゴミが排水管に流入することを阻止することができるシート状の通水性フィルター材と、該フィルター材の上面又は上方に設けられた、微生物の発育抑制物質を含有する固形薬剤を収納する収納部と、微生物の発育抑制物質を含有する固形薬剤とからなり、固形薬剤に排水が接触することにより、排水に溶解した薬液が前記フィルター材により拡散し、該フィルター材並びに排水口の目皿及び排水管壁面に発生するヌメリを防除することができる排水口用ゴミ取り具（特願２００１−６１０８３）や、排水口の目皿に容器を着脱自在に装着することができる取付け具であって、一端が容器の底部に固着されており、他端が目皿に設けられたスリットに挿通し易い形状からなり、容器底部側の取付け具胴部の復元力により前記容器を目皿に止着することができる目皿取付け具（特願２００１−６０８４１）を開発している。これらの技術はもともと存在していた浴室排水口用目皿を利用するものであるが、本発明者らは、排水口や排水管内壁に発生する異臭やヌメリを簡便に防除しうると共に、毛髪が捕集された浴室排水口用目皿を簡便に処理することができる、使い捨てタイプの目皿一体型浴室排水口用ヌメリ取り器（特願２００１−３４８０４８、特願２００２−８８７２３）も開発している。
【０００８】
なお、最近では、浴室の排水口として、排水口が排水溝の底部に設けられ、通常は排水溝が蓋で覆われているタイプの排水口が増加し、排水口や排水管内壁の他、排水溝の内面、特にヌメリが発生しやすい排水口周辺の排水溝底面に発生するヌメリをも防除することも望まれており、本発明らは、このような要望に対処するために、薬液分散樋を有すドーナツ型平板形状の薬液拡散部を設けた浴室排水口用ヌメリ取り器（特願２００２−１７０７１９）、毛髪通過部を設けたリング状薬液供給体を有す浴室排水口用ヌメリ取り器（特願２００２−１８０５７９）をも開発している。
【０００９】
本発明者らによるこのような排水口用ヌメリ取り器は、微生物の発育抑制物質を含有する固形薬剤の利用及び排水流入孔と薬液排出口を設けた薬剤容器の採用等により、浴室排水口周辺に発生するヌメリを効率よく充分に除去できる優れた浴室排水口用ヌメリ取り器であるが、我が国を含め諸外国において種々のタイプが存在する浴室排水口に対応すべく、種々のタイプの浴室排水口用ヌメリ取り器が望まれている。
【００１０】
本発明の課題は、浴室排水口への使用に適したヌメリ取り器において、浴室における排水口や排水管内壁に発生するヌメリを効率よく防除することができ、さらに、浴室排水口の目皿部への浴室排水口用ヌメリ取り器の簡便な取り付けや固形薬剤の簡易な補充又は交換使用を実現できる、浴室排水口への使用に適したヌメリ取り器を提供することにある。
【００１１】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明者らは、上記課題を解決するために鋭意検討し、微生物の発育抑制物質を含有する固形薬剤を収納した目皿型ヌメリ取り器において、浴室における排水口や排水管内壁に発生するヌメリを効率よく防除することができ、さらに、浴室排水口の目皿部への浴室排水口用ヌメリ取り器の簡便な取り付けや固形薬剤の簡易な補充又は交換を実現できる、浴室排水口への使用に適したヌメリ取り器を提供するためには、目皿の下部に微生物の発育抑制物質を含有する固形薬剤を収納する薬剤収納部を着脱自在に固定し、さらにその下部に薬液拡散体を一体的に設ければよいことを見い出した。また、前記目皿の下部に薬剤収納部を装脱着する手段として、係止用突片を備えた目皿懸架具を使用するか、又は、薬剤収納部の上面に目皿懸垂具を設けると、もともと存在していた備え付けの浴室排水口用目皿を利用して、薬剤収納部を目皿の下部に装脱着するできることを見い出し、本発明を完成するに至った。

【００１３】
また、本発明は、微生物の発育抑制物質を含有する固形薬剤と、排水口の目皿に装脱着することができる目皿懸垂具が上面に固着され、前記固形薬剤を収納する薬剤収納部と、該薬剤収納部の下部に一体的に固定され、固形薬剤の溶解液である薬液を分散することができる薬液拡散体とを備え、前記薬剤収納部の上面に固着された目皿懸垂具の端部が目皿に設けられたスリットに挿通し易い形状であり、該目皿懸垂具胴部の復元力により前記薬剤収納部を目皿の下部に止着することができることを特徴とする装着型浴室排水口用ヌメリ取り器（請求項１０）や、目皿懸垂具が、棒状芯部の長手方向に沿って複数の係止フィンが放射状に固設され、薬剤収納部と反対側の端部の係止フィンが先細形状となっていることを特徴とする請求項１０記載の装着型浴室排水口用ヌメリ取り器（請求項１１）や、目皿懸垂具が、４枚のフィンを有する横断面Ｘ字型の構造を有することを特徴とする請求項１１記載の装着型浴室排水口用ヌメリ取り器（請求項１２）や、目皿懸垂具が、縦断面が細長いひし形の細幅の板状体からなる係止弾性片から構成されていることを特徴とする請求項１０記載の装着型浴室排水口用ヌメリ取り器（請求項１３）や、薬剤収納部が、上面に排水流入孔、下部側周面に薬液流出孔を有する薬剤収納容器から構成されていることを特徴とする請求項１〜１３のいずれか記載の装着型浴室排水口用ヌメリ取り器（請求項１４）や、薬剤収納部が、上面に排水流入孔、下面及び／又は下部側周面に薬液流出孔が設けられた薬剤収容カートリッジと、該薬剤収容カートリッジの載置板から構成されていることを特徴とする請求項１〜１３のいずれか記載の装着型浴室排水口用ヌメリ取り器（請求項１５）や、薬液拡散体が、適宜間隔で放射状に複数のスリット及び／又は複数の切欠きが設けられたスカート形状体として構成されていることを特徴とする請求項１〜１５のいずれか記載の装着型浴室排水口用ヌメリ取り器（請求項１６）や、薬液拡散体が、放射状に延設された薬液分散樋と、該薬液分散樋の外周縁に設けられた薬液拡散部とから構成されていることを特徴とする請求項１〜１５のいずれか記載の装着型浴室排水口用ヌメリ取り器（請求項１７）に関する。
【００１４】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明の装着型浴室排水口用ヌメリ取り器としては、微生物の発育抑制物質を含有する固形薬剤と、該固形薬剤を収納する薬剤収納部と、該薬剤収納部の下部に一体的に固定され、固形薬剤の溶解液である薬液を分散することができる薬液拡散体と、排水口の目皿に懸架して前記薬剤収納部を装脱着することができる目皿懸架具とを備え、前記薬剤収納部には目皿懸架具の下部を構成する係止用突片と協働して目皿の下部に薬剤収納部を装脱着自在に固定しうる突片固定部が設けられているヌメリ取り器（以下「懸架装着型ヌメリ取り器」という）や、微生物の発育抑制物質を含有する固形薬剤と、排水口の目皿に装脱着することができる目皿懸垂具が上面に固着され、前記固形薬剤を収納する薬剤収納部と、該薬剤収納部の下部に一体的に固定され、固形薬剤の溶解液である薬液を分散することができる薬液拡散体とを備え、前記目皿懸垂具により前記薬剤収納部を目皿の下部に着脱自在に装着することができるタイプのヌメリ取り器（以下「懸垂装着型ヌメリ取り器」）であれば特に制限されるものではなく、以下、図面を適宜参照しながら、本発明の装着型浴室排水口用ヌメリ取り器について説明する。なお、図中、１は本発明の装着型浴室排水口用ヌメリ取り器、２は浴室排水口用目皿、３は固形薬剤、４は薬剤収納部、４１は薬剤収納容器、４２は薬剤収容カートリッジ、４３は薬剤収容カートリッジの載置板、４４は棒状突起、４５はリング状枠板、４６ａ〜ｄは突片固定部、４７は薬剤収納部の上面に設けられた排水流入孔、４８は薬剤収納部の上面に設けられた空気抜き孔、４９は薬剤収納部の下部側周面に設けられた薬液流出孔、５は薬液拡散体、５１はスカート形状体、５２はスリット、５３は凹断面を有する薬液分散樋、５４は薬液拡散部、６は目皿懸架具、６１ａ〜ｃは係止用突片、７は目皿懸垂具、７１は係止フィン、７２は係止弾性片を示している。
【００１５】
図１及び図３〜図８に示される本発明の懸架装着型ヌメリ取り器は、通常の備え付けの浴室排水口の目皿に、上記目皿懸架具６により装着して使用する。目皿懸架具６は、通常合成樹脂などにより作製され、その大きさや形状は、下部（裏面）が係止用突片６１で構成されているものであれば特に制限されないが、前記浴室排水口用目皿２の上方より挿嵌して使用することから、目皿２の径より小さくなるように構成されていることが好ましい。通常、目皿は多孔網目状平板構造として構成され、毛髪等の異物を捕集することができる通水孔や通水スリットを有するが、目皿懸架具６の形状は、かかる目皿構造を損なわないものであればどのような形状のものでもよく、例えば、図３に示すような幅細のリング型や図４に示すような幅細の十字型構造を例示することができる。
【００１６】
上記目皿懸架具６に備えられた係止用突片６１は、薬剤収納部及び薬剤拡散体を安定に固定・保持するため、好ましくは複数個、より好ましくは同心円状かつ点対称的に、一体成形的に形成されている。かかる係止用突片６１の形状としては、薬剤収納部４に設けられている突片固定部４６と協働して目皿２の下部に薬剤収納部４を装脱着自在に固定しうる形状であれば特に限定されないが、図５に示すようなＬ字状突片６１ａ、図７に示すような鋸歯状突片６１ｂ等の嵌合用突片や、図８に示すようなレ字状突片６１ｃ等の挟持用突片を好適に例示することができる。
【００１７】
例えば、図５に示すように、薬剤収納部４の外縁内側に対応する位置に設けられたＬ字状の嵌合用突片６１ａの場合、薬剤収納容器４１等からなる薬剤収納部の上面に、Ｌ字状の嵌合用突片６１ａの形状と配置に応じて設けられた嵌合用の円弧状の穴（貫通した穴も含む）あるいは円弧状の溝４６ａの幅広部にＬ字状突片６１ａを挿入し、幅狭部の方に回すことにより簡便に目皿２の下部に薬剤収納部４を装着・固定することができる。また、図６に示すように、このＬ字状の嵌合用突片６１ａが、薬剤収納部４の外縁に対応する位置に設けられた場合、周縁などに突出鍔を有する薬剤収納部４の上部周縁裏面あるいは薬剤収納容器４１等からなる薬剤収納部４の側周面に、Ｌ字状の嵌合用突片６１ａの形状と配置に応じて設けられた嵌合用の溝又は穴４６ｂにＬ字状突片６１ａを嵌入することにより簡便に目皿２の下部に薬剤収納部４を装着・固定することができる。かかるＬ字状の嵌合用突片６１ａは、プラスチックのような可撓性材料にて形成され、また、３〜４個設けることが好ましい。
【００１８】
また、図７に示すように、薬剤収納部４の外縁内側に対応する位置に設けられた鋸歯状の嵌合用突片６１ｂの場合、薬剤収納容器等からなる薬剤収納部の上面に、鋸歯状の嵌合用突片６１ｂの形状と配置に応じて設けられた嵌合用の穴（貫通した穴も含む）４６ｃに鋸歯状突片６１ｂを嵌挿することにより簡便に目皿２の下部に薬剤収納部４を装着・固定することができる。ここで、鋸歯状突片６１ｂとは、プラスチックのような可撓性材料にて形成されたギザギザの鋸歯形状の小長尺状の結合子（例えば、多数の三角形片を上下逆に連接したような形状）であって、上記嵌合用の穴４６ｃに多少強制的に押し込んで、結合子をその可撓性材料の形状復元力にて嵌合用の穴に係止固定する結合手段をいう。かかる鋸歯状の嵌合用突片６１ｂは、３〜４個設けることが好ましい。
【００１９】
また、図８に示すように、レ字状等の挟持用突片６１ｃが、薬剤収納部４の外縁に相当する位置に設けられた場合、周縁などに突出鍔４６ｄを有する薬剤収納部４の上部周縁裏面あるいは薬剤収納容器４１等からなる薬剤収納部４の側周底面を、レ字状突片６１ｃで挟持することにより簡便に目皿２の下部に薬剤収納部を装着・固定することができる。かかるレ字状の挟持用突片６１ｃは、プラスチックのような可撓性材料にて形成され、また、３〜４個設けることが好ましい。
【００２０】
図２、図９及び図１０に示される本発明の懸垂装着型ヌメリ取り器は、排水口の目皿２の下方から目皿懸垂具７を目皿２のスリットに強制的に挿通して止着することにより使用するが、前記目皿懸垂具７が目皿２の上部に突出することから、図１１に示すタイプの排水口が排水溝の底部に設けられ、通常は排水溝が蓋で覆われている排水溝排水口に使用することが好ましい。また、上記目皿懸垂具７は、薬剤収納部４及び薬剤拡散体５を安定に固定・保持するため、１個又は複数個を薬剤収納部４の上面に固設することができ、複数個設ける場合は同心円状かつ点対称的に固設することが好ましい。
【００２１】
上記目皿懸垂具７は、端部が目皿２に設けられたスリットに挿通し易い形状であり、該目皿懸垂具７胴部の復元力により薬剤収納部４を目皿２の下部に止着することができるものであれば、特に制限されるものではないが、棒状芯部の長手方向に沿って複数の係止フィン７１が放射状に固設され、薬剤収納部４と反対側の端部の係止フィンが漸次先細形状となっている図９に示すような目皿懸垂具や、縦断面が細長いひし形の細幅の板状体からなる係止弾性片７２から構成されている図１０に示すような目皿懸垂具を好適に例示することができる。
【００２２】
上記の棒状芯部の長手方向に沿って複数の係止フィン７１が放射状に固設され、薬剤収納部４と反対側の端部の係止フィン７１が漸次先細形状となっている目皿懸垂具７における係止フィン７１としては、３〜８枚、特に４〜６枚のフィンが等間隔又は異間隔で放射状に固設されているものが好ましく、その幅・厚みは棒状芯部の半径の１〜５倍程度の幅と数ミリ程度の厚みを有するものが好ましく、またその材質は復元力や弾性力を有するゴムやプラスチックが好ましい。かかる係止フィン７１がその長さ方向に沿って固設されている棒状芯部の長さは、薬剤収納部４を目皿２に止着しうる長さのものであればよく、その材質は特に制限されないが、復元力や弾性力を有するゴムやプラスチックが好ましく、かかる場合、この棒状芯部と前記係止フィン７１とを一体成形とすることもできる。このタイプのヌメリ取り器として、図９に示される４枚の係止フィン７１を有する横断面Ｘ字型の構造を有する目皿懸垂具７が薬剤収納容器４１の上面に固着されたヌメリ取り器を例示することができる。
【００２３】
また、上記の縦断面が細長いひし形の細幅の板状体からなる係止弾性片７２から構成されている目皿懸垂具７の係止弾性片７２としては、通常、厚さ０．５〜３ｍｍ、幅３〜１５ｍｍの板状体から構成され、その材質としては復元力や反発力を有するプラスチックや金属片を挙げることができる。このタイプのヌメリ取り器としては、図１０に示されるヌメリ取り器を例示することができる。
【００２４】
上述の目皿懸架具６又は目皿懸垂具７等によって目皿２の下部に装脱着自在に固定される上記薬剤収納部４としては、固形薬剤３を収納・保持しうる構造を有するものであれば特に制限されるものではないが、薬剤収納部４の径方向の大きさは、目皿２の径より小さくなるように構成されており、上面に排水流入孔４７、下部側周面に薬液流出孔４９を有する薬剤収納容器４１から構成されている薬剤収納部４や、上面に排水流入孔４７、下面及び又は下部側周面に薬液流出孔４９が設けられた薬剤収容カートリッジ４２と、該薬剤収容カートリッジの載置板４３から構成されている薬剤収納部４を具体的に例示することができる。そして、これら薬剤収納容器４１や薬剤収容カートリッジ４２における排水流入孔４７は、収納されている固形薬剤３を溶解させるための排水の流入孔であり、薬液流出孔４９は、固形薬剤溶解液（薬液）を比較的高濃度で持続的に流出させるための薬液の流出孔であって、通常、それぞれ複数個設けられ、その形状は特に制限されるものではないが、スリット状の開口とすることが好ましく、その場合のスリットの幅は、０．５〜４ｍｍ、さらに０．５〜３ｍｍ、特に１〜２ｍｍが好ましい。スリット幅が０．５ｍｍ以上であると水の表面張力の均衡が破れ、排水や薬液を容易に流出入させることができ、スリット幅が４ｍｍ以下好ましくは３ｍｍ以下であると毛髪等の異物の流入を極力防止することができる。また、薬液流出孔の面積の和を、排水流入孔の面積の和より小さくすることが比較的高濃度の薬剤溶解液を持続的に流出させる上で好ましく、さらに上面に空気抜き孔４８を設ければ、排水流入孔への排水の流入が滑らかになる。なお、薬剤収納部に固形薬剤に加えて、さらに香料や脱臭剤を収納させれば、浴室に芳香を漂わせ悪臭を除去することができる。
【００２５】
上記薬剤収納部４が薬剤収納容器４１の場合、通常合成樹脂などにより作製され、円筒状、角筒状等その形状は特に制限されず、また、上蓋を設けても設けなくてもよいが、上蓋を設ける場合は詰替用固形薬剤を装填しうるように上蓋を開閉自在に構成することが好ましい。そして、かかる薬剤収納容器４１には、前記嵌合用突片と協働して薬剤収納容器４１を目皿２の下部（裏面）に装脱着自在に固定するための突片固定部４６として、その上面に、Ｌ字状突片６１ａに対応して嵌合用の円弧状の穴（貫通した穴も含む）や円弧状の溝４６ａが、鋸歯状突片６１ｂに対応して円形の穴４６ｃが設けられ、あるいは、Ｌ字状突片６１ａに対応してその側周面に上部を除いて溝が設けられている。また、かかる薬剤収納容器４１の上部周縁に突出鍔を設け、この突出鍔の周縁裏面に前記Ｌ字状突片６１ａに対応して嵌合用の溝を形成しておくこともできる。他方、上記薬剤収納部４が薬剤収容カートリッジ４２とその載置板４３から構成されている場合、載置板４３周辺部にはカートリッジ保持用の棒状突起４４を複数本立設させ、棒状突起４４の他端をリング状枠板４５に埋設固着する構造とすることが好ましい。そして、かかるリング状枠板４５の周縁裏面には、前記Ｌ字状突片６１ａに対応して嵌合用の溝を設けることもできるが、設けない場合であっても、レ字状突片６１ｃやＬ字状突片で挟持することにより、このタイプの薬剤収納部４を目皿下部に装脱着自在に固定することができる。
【００２６】
