Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem that a chip removing means cannot be used with a water stream in forming a diversion hole when newly placing a water distribution main pipe or setting the diversion hole in a water distribution main hole in an empty pipe condition with no water pressure in the water distribution main pipe, to bring about incomplete chip flying prevention or chip removal, resulting in the entry of chips into a fitting mechanism or a snap tap mechanism part during hole formation to generate a failure or water leakage. <P>SOLUTION: In a mechanism protecting method, a passing water hole 13a of a snap tap ball valve element is set vertical to form an insertion space ranging from the upper part to the upper face of the water distribution main pipe in the empty pipe condition, and a cylindrical plate 3 with a locking structure 31 is inserted into the upper end to encircle the insertion space so that chips produced during hole formation with a hole forming drill is enclosed in the cylindrical plate to prevent the dispersion into the snap tap mechanism. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT

Description

The present invention provides a water distribution hole for setting a water faucet in an empty distribution main that is not subjected to water pressure, such as a new distribution main or a replacement for replacing an old pipe. The present invention relates to a water faucet mechanism protection method for preventing chips generated during drilling from being dissipated and entering the water faucet mechanism, and a perforated chip scattering preventing cylindrical plate used therefor.

Conventionally, when water is diverted from a water distribution main to a branch pipe through a water faucet, the water faucet is attached to the water distribution main by a saddle attached to the water faucet, and is distributed through an insertion space in which the water passage hole of the ball valve body is vertical. Insert a drilling cone, such as a drill, horso, or cone, that is rotated by a drilling machine from the top of the faucet body to the upper surface of the water distribution main pipe, drill the hole on the upper surface of the water distribution main pipe, A method of connecting water channels (for example, a description relating to perforation in Patent Document 1) is employed.

  In the continuous water construction where water pressure is applied to the water distribution main, as described in Patent Document 2, a cap is used to prevent chips from entering the water outlet, and after drilling, Chips are swept away by the blow-up flow caused by the water pressure of the water distribution main by opening the valve body, but in the case of an empty pipe, the water pressure of the water distribution main cannot be used. Yes.

  However, in the case of an empty pipe where water pressure is not applied to the water distribution main, it is not possible to completely remove chips by simply using a cap and removing chips with a chip removal jig. It is not possible to completely prevent chips from entering into important mechanism parts such as sheets and gaps in the diversion outlet. Therefore, there is a problem that leads to a serious failure such as poor water stoppage.

  In addition, the residue of chips due to insufficient removal of chips may be mixed with drinking water depending on the material of the water distribution mains to be perforated, and reach the end-end consumer's end-of-life devices. There is a growing demand for the elimination of swarf chips.

  Furthermore, on the drilling work surface, the insertion space in which the water hole of the ball valve body into which the drilling device is inserted for water hole drilling is vertical is not necessarily a guide frame, and the diameter of the water hole is not through the valve body. Since it is desired that the diameter is close to the diameter of the water channel, the diameter of the drilling cone such as a drill is selected. The drilling cone must be rotated within the marginal insertion space, and the drilling cone may be damaged and damage the space wall. There is.

  The present invention is intended to address the above-described problems, and is related to the upper end of the insertion space from the upper part of the water faucet body formed by making the water passage hole of the ball valve body vertical to the abdominal surface on the water distribution main body side. A cylindrical plate with a stopper structure is inserted to obstruct the insertion space, and chips generated at the time of drilling of the main pipe by the drilling cone are enclosed in the cylindrical plate to dissipate and dissipate into the water faucet mechanism. Configured to prevent.

  In addition, in order to insert a cylindrical plate with a minimum diameter in the insertion space, the cylindrical plate to be inserted is provided with a small diameter portion and a large diameter portion on the outer periphery of the cylindrical body, and a step corresponding to the insertion space is provided. The small-diameter portion constitutes a clearance clearance with respect to the space wall so that it can be inserted into the space without difficulty by using this, and the large-diameter portion is fitted by the effect of fitting the large-diameter portion. Stabilized after insertion.

  Further, by providing a narrow diameter portion and an enlarged diameter portion on the inner periphery of the body portion of the cylindrical main body and setting an inner diameter step corresponding to the thickness of the perforated cone, the enlarged diameter portion is formed with the inner diameter of the cylindrical main body and the outer diameter of the perforated cone. In this way, a cylindrical plate having a minimum diameter can be inserted into a very small insertion space by guiding the insertion by a narrow diameter portion while constituting the clearance of the clearance and absorbing the insertion blur of the drilling cone.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
Reference numeral 1 denotes a water faucet body, and a ball valve operating mechanism 12 is configured through a water diversion outlet 11a communicating with a connection opening 11 connected to a water supply branch pipe and a ball valve 13 on the side, and is perpendicular to an upper portion of the ball valve 13. In the direction of the perforation cone insertion space 14, the central portion is a ball valve storage portion 15 that engages and accommodates the ball valve 13 with the operation mechanism 12, and from the water distribution main A through the diversion outlet 11 a and the connection opening portion 11. A water diversion mechanism for diverting water to the water supply branch pipe is configured.

  Reference numeral 2 denotes an upper holding body of a saddle for sandwiching and holding a water distribution main serving as a water distribution source, with a lower holding body inserted around the water distribution main A, bolts and nuts (not shown). The water mains are sandwiched and held together.

  The water faucet is attached by first inserting the lower holder into the lower side of the water distribution main A, fitting it with the upper carrier 2 and sandwiching and holding the water main. The cap 6 is removed, the ball valve 13 is rotated, and the drilling hole 4 mounted on the tip of the drilling machine from the top through the drilling cone insertion space 14 in the vertical direction, the drilling cone 4 such as a horuso, etc. The plate 3 can be inserted.

  Therefore, the chip scattering prevention cylindrical plate 3 is inserted into the drilling cone insertion space 14 from the water faucet top 16 from which the cap 6 has been removed to obstruct the peripheral wall of the drilling cone insertion space 14, and the periphery of the space is closed. A drilling machine fixing member 41 for fixing a drilling machine for rotating the drilling cone 4 on the water cock is set at the top 16 of the watercock, and through this, the drilling cone 4 is inserted into the space 14 to distribute water in an empty pipe state. A water diversion hole 5 is formed in the main pipe A.

  The cylindrical plate 3 is a cylindrical body having a diameter that fits to the full diameter of the insertion space 14 made of brass or the like. A flange 31 is formed on the upper end, and the main body is hung on the upper end edge of the water faucet top 16. It locks and supports and restricts insertion to a predetermined depth. Therefore, it is not always necessary to have a flange structure that protrudes to the entire circumference, and any structure that hangs on the upper end edge of the water faucet top 16 and locks the main body may be used.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the insertion depth of the cylindrical plate 3 is such that the valve chamber in which the ball valve seat 13c is laid through the through water passage hole 13a of the ball valve 13 and passing through the ball valve storage portion 15 is completely formed. The outer periphery of the cylindrical plate 3 can be the peripheral surface of the space 14 so that it does not enter the gap between the outer periphery of the cylindrical plate 3 and the insertion space 14 even if chips are scattered during drilling. As close as possible.

  However, a minimum clearance for inserting and removing the cylindrical plate 3 into and from the insertion space 14 is necessary, and the water distribution hole 5 of the water distribution main pipe A to be drilled is close to the diameter of the through water passage hole 13a. Therefore, in order to increase the diameter of the perforation cone 4, it is desirable to increase the inner diameter of the cylindrical plate 3 as much as possible.

  Corresponding to such an insertion environment, when the nominal diameter is about 13 to 50, the thickness of the cylindrical portion of the cylindrical plate 3 is about 0.5 mm to 1 mm, and an average embodiment is shown in FIG. As shown in the figure, a thick and large diameter portion 32 is provided at the base of the flange 31, and when the insertion is completed, it is tightly fitted into the inner diameter of the water faucet top portion 16 to be stabilized, and the intermediate barrel portion has a small inner diameter and an outer diameter. A portion 33 is provided, and further, a thin large-diameter portion 34 having a reduced thickness and a large inner and outer diameter at the tip is provided.

  This configuration corresponds to the drilled cone 4 having a thin base diameter and a large tip diameter, and insertion into the insertion space 14 is difficult to insert the tip, but the cylindrical plate 3 is shaken by the clearance generated by the stepped portion 33 of the intermediate body portion. It can be moved and gradually inserted, and the thick large diameter portion 32 is fitted to the inner diameter of the water faucet top portion 16 to be stabilized.

  After inserting the cylindrical plate 3 into the insertion space 14, the drilling cone 4 is inserted. However, since the tip diameter of the drilling cone 4 is thick, it is difficult to insert at first, but there is a margin in the thin large diameter portion 34. If the tip of the drilled cone 4 is inserted, the base side can be rotated with a margin.

  FIG. 5 shows a modification of FIG. 4 in which the insertion space 14 includes a base large-diameter portion 32 and a thin large-diameter portion 34a at the tip whose inner periphery is enlarged while keeping the diameter of the outer periphery the same as the base large-diameter portion 32. The inner diameter of the cylindrical plate 3 and the outer diameter of the cylindrical plate 3 are brought into close contact with each other to stabilize the insertion of the cylindrical plate 3, and the cylindrical plate 3 is inserted by increasing the distance of the stepped portion 33 a having the reduced inner diameter while maintaining the inner diameter. The clearance at the time of escape is obtained.

  FIG. 6 shows an embodiment in which only the thin large-diameter portion 34a in which the inner periphery of the cylindrical plate 3 is expanded is set when the cutting blade portion of the drilled cone 4 is long and the insertion space 14 can have a margin. FIG. 7 shows an embodiment constituted by a thick-walled large-diameter portion 32 at the base and a stepped portion 33a in which only the diameter of the outer periphery is reduced, and corresponds to a case where a drilled cone 4 such as a horuso is used. FIG. 8 shows the basic shape of the cylindrical plate 3 and assumes a case where the structure of the cone insertion space 14 is straight.

  The cylindrical plate 3 is inserted into the insertion space 14, the drilling machine fixing member 41 is set, the drilling cone 4 attached to the tip of the drilling machine is inserted, and the water distribution holes 5 are formed in the water distribution main A. Since the cylindrical plate 3 passes through the through water passage hole 13a of the ball valve 13 and passes through the ball valve storage 15 to completely cover the valve chamber in which the ball valve seat 13c is laid, They are accumulated in the cylindrical plate 3 without being scattered in such a main part mechanism.

  The perforation cone 4 is removed, the perforator fixing member 41 is removed, the accumulated chips are completely removed by a chip removal jig such as an aspirator and a magnet rod, and then the cylindrical plate 3 is pulled out. The cap 6 at the top is returned and the water distribution work is completed by the water distribution pipe to the water faucet and the water flow to the water distribution main A.

  When the water distribution main A is in a water-flowing state and water pressure is applied, after the water distribution hole 5 is drilled in the water distribution main A, the drilling machine is installed at an upper position where the ball valve 13 can be rotated. The ball valve 13 is rotated in a state where the water flow from the diverted hole 5 that has been perforated and stopped is closed, the perforation cone insertion space 14 is closed, and after the cap 6 is fitted, the ball valve 13 is rotated again to perforate. Although the water distribution is completed by releasing the cone insertion space 14, in the present invention, since the water distribution main A is in an empty pipe state, the water flow blocking treatment from the water diversion hole 5 is not required.

  The mechanism protection from the water hole perforated chips by the perforated chip scattering prevention cylindrical plate according to the present invention cannot use the chip removal means by the water flow from the construction environment where the water distribution main A is in an empty pipe state. Corresponding to the insertion of various drilling cones and various drilling cones through the ball valve water passage hole 13a, the water faucet main part mechanism can be completely covered by adjusting the clearance between the cylindrical plate and the insertion space. Is.

  Since the present invention is configured as described above, even in the case of an empty pipe in which water pressure is not applied to the water distribution main, the chips that cannot be completely removed by the chip removal jig are eliminated, and each cause of failure or water leakage It was possible to prevent chips from entering the mechanism part.
