Description

  The present invention relates to a faucet device with a hot water temperature adjusting function.

  Conventionally, as a faucet device with a hot water temperature adjustment function, for example, Patent Literature 1 and Patent Literature 2 are known.

  In the conventional example shown in Patent Document 1, a temperature control module is installed from one opening side of one cylinder whose both ends in the axial direction are opened, and a control valve module is installed from the other opening side of the cylinder. Things are shown. In this conventional example, when maintaining or inspecting one or both of the temperature control module and the control valve module, the temperature control module or the control valve module is inserted from one opening or the other opening in the axial direction of the cylinder. Pull it out in the axial direction to remove it for maintenance and inspection.

  In this case, the removed temperature control module and control valve module can be maintained and inspected by the wall or at a location away from the cylinder mounting location where it is difficult to perform work such as the top or front of the counter. Inspection, maintenance of the control valve module itself, and inspection work can be done easily, but the temperature adjustment module and control valve module can be fitted from the opening and aligned with the water supply port, hot water supply port, water discharge port provided in the cylinder, seals, etc. In order to perform the assembling work, the work must be carried out at a place where it is difficult to work, such as the wall side where the cylinder is mounted or the upper surface or the front surface of the counter.

  Moreover, the water faucet device with a hot water temperature adjusting function of the conventional example shown in the above-mentioned Patent Document 1 is located between one end part or both end parts in the axial direction of the cylinder, or a wall or other equipment depending on the installation location. There are cases where the gap width cannot be secured too long, and in this way the gap width cannot secure sufficient dimensions to pull out the temperature control module or control valve module from the opening at one end or the other end in the axial direction of the cylinder. Cannot remove the temperature control module and the control valve module from the cylinder.

  Therefore, in such a case, it is necessary to remove and maintain and inspect the cylinder that houses both the temperature control module and the control valve module. However, even when maintaining or inspecting either the temperature control module or the control valve module, the cylinder with both the temperature control module and the control valve module must be removed for maintenance and inspection. When maintaining and inspecting one of the modules, there is a problem that the other module gets in the way and is difficult to work. Furthermore, for example, to maintain and inspect the control valve module, remove the cylinder water supply and hot water pipe connections related to the temperature control module, remove the cylinder, and again after maintenance and inspection, reconnect to the temperature control module. It is necessary to connect the pipe connection of the cylinder water supply and hot water supply. To maintain and inspect the control valve module, disconnect the pipe connection related to the temperature control module different from the control valve module. There is a problem that work such as reconnection is required and the work becomes complicated.

  Further, in this Patent Document 1, a temperature control module is installed from one axial end of one cylinder, a control valve module is installed from the other axial end, and the temperature control module is provided at each end of the cylinder in the axial direction. The control valve module and the handle of the control valve module protrude so that only one control valve module can be installed, and it has a hot water temperature adjustment function equipped with a temperature control module and a plurality of control valve modules. There is a problem that the faucet device cannot be configured.

  Further, in Patent Document 2, a temperature control module is built in one side portion of a hole opened at one side end of the mixing faucet body, and control is performed from the opening communicating with the hole provided on the front side of the mixing faucet body. A faucet device with a hot water temperature adjusting function in which a valve module is fitted is shown. In this conventional example, the control valve module can be removed forward. However, the control valve module is still inserted in the mixed water in order to fit the control valve module through the opening, align with the mixing faucet body, and incorporate the seal. There is a problem that workability is poor because it must be performed at a place where the work is difficult such as near the wall to which the stopper body is attached, the upper surface or the front surface of the counter.

  Further, in this conventional example, the temperature control module can be removed only outward in the axial direction of the mixing faucet body, so in this conventional example, the temperature control module protruding to one side of the mixing faucet body If the gap width between the hot water temperature adjustment handle and the wall or other equipment is not sufficiently secured, the temperature control module cannot be removed as in the above-described conventional example.

  Further, in order to perform maintenance and inspection of the temperature control module or the control valve module, when removing and maintaining and inspecting the mixed faucet body with the temperature control module and control valve module installed therein, the same as in Patent Document 1 described above. Problems arise.

Moreover, in Patent Document 2, two control valve modules are provided, but the axial directions of the two control valve modules are respectively intersecting with the axial direction of the temperature control module. There is a problem that the attached faucet device becomes large.
