  In the conventional method for removing fluid equipment from the water pipe system, the process of attaching the work on / off valve to the upper body of the water faucet, which is the second connecting member, until the lower body of the water faucet is removed from the water pipe. After removing the stopper top in the water stopcock with the top remover connected to the valve, the step of removing the top remover from the work on / off valve, the obturator of the closure insertion machine connected to the work on / off valve The process of blocking the flow path, with the obturator in the expanded state left in the lower body, the other components of the obstruction insertion machine are removed from the work on / off valve, and the work on / off valve is further removed from the lower body. In the process of removing, the extraction plug is fixed to the lower body in a state where relative rotation is not possible, and the water faucet with a saddle is externally fixed to the water pipe in a state where the lower body and the extraction plug are sealed, and fixed to the water faucet with a saddle. Feed the connected lower drum remover spindle and connect the tip Many parts, such as the process of removing the lower body from the water pipe by rotating the handle of the lower body to the unscrewing side of the lower body by screwing and connecting the threaded part to the threaded part of the extraction plug. It took a lot of work and time to remove the equipment.

  Moreover, if water leaks from the connection point between the water pipe and the water faucet, the water leakage will continue until the step of fixing the water faucet with a saddle to the water pipe, avoiding this. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out a separate water leakage prevention treatment.

  Furthermore, when the closing piece in the water faucet is inoperable, a passage for inserting the obturator of the obstruction insertion machine cannot be secured, so the above-described fluid device removal method is performed. There is an inconvenience that makes it impossible.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above-described actual situation, and the main problems thereof are a first connection member screwed to the water pipe and a second connection member screwed to the first connection member. Can be removed efficiently and reliably with a small number of work processes, and even if water leaks from the threaded connection between the water pipe and the first connection member, this measure of water leakage is compared with the removal work process. It is in the point which provides the removal operation jig used for the fluid equipment removal method of the water pipe system which can be performed reliably at an early stage, and it.

According to a first characteristic configuration of the present invention, a first connection member is screwed and connected to a water splitting screw hole formed in a pipe wall of a water pipe, and a second connection member is screwed and connected to the first connection member. In the water pipe system, the fluid equipment removal method of the water pipe system for removing the first connection member and the second connection member in an unrestricted state,
Connecting the first connection member and the second connection member in a non-detachable manner with relative rotation restricting means;
The work pipe is provided with a work gate valve in a work opening in which the first and second connection members can be enclosed in a watertight state and through which the first and second connection members can pass. The process of attaching the case;
Connecting a removal operation shaft of a removal operation jig to the first connection member or the second connection member;
A removal operation case of a removal operation jig capable of storing the first and second connection members in the work case is supported by penetrating the removal operation shaft connected to the second connection member or the first connection member. A process of mounting in a state;
Rotating the removal operation shaft to the screwing release side of the first connection member, and removing the first and second connection members connected by the relative rotation restricting means from the water pipe;
A step of transferring the first and second connecting members into the removal work case by a pulling operation of the removal operation shaft, and removing the removal work case from the work case in a state in which the work gate valve is closed; and
It is in the point with.

  According to the above configuration, when the first and second connection members are removed from the water pipe in an indefinite water state, by connecting the first connection member and the second connection member so as not to be detached by the relative rotation restricting means, Since the first and second connecting members can be operated as an integrated body in which relative rotation is restricted, the first connecting member is removed from the water pipe after the second connecting member is removed from the first connecting member. There is no need to take work procedures.

  In addition, the first and second connection members connected by the relative rotation restricting means are surrounded by a work case attached to the water pipe in a watertight state. For example, a threaded connection between the water pipe and the first connection member Even if water leaks from a part or the like, the water stop treatment of the water leaked part can be performed at a relatively early stage of the removal work process using the working case.

  Further, when the work gate valve of the work case is opened, the first and second connecting members are exposed to the outside through the work opening of the work case. The connecting operation of the removal operation shaft with respect to the member or the second connecting member can be performed reliably and easily.

  Furthermore, in the state where the removal operation case of the removal operation jig is attached to the work case, the first and second connecting members are surrounded in a watertight state even if the work gate valve of the work case is opened. Since the removal operation shaft that is penetrated and supported by the removal work case in this state can be rotated to the screwing release side of the first connection member, the first rotation shaft is connected by the relative rotation restricting means. -A 2nd connection member can be removed from a water pipe simultaneously.

  Thereafter, the removal operation shaft is pulled out to remove the first and second connecting members into the removal work case, and the removal work case is simply removed from the work case with the work gate valve closed. That's it.

  Therefore, the first connection member screwed and connected to the water pipe and the second connection member screwed and connected to the water pipe can be efficiently and reliably removed with a small number of work steps, and the water pipe and Even if water leakage or the like occurs from the threaded connection location with the first connecting member, this water leakage countermeasure can be reliably performed at a relatively early time in the removal work process.

  The working case with the working gate valve is slightly larger because the first and second connecting members are surrounded in a watertight state, but if the size does not matter, the working gate valve It is also possible to use the working case with a split T-tube finally fixed to a water pipe or a water faucet with a saddle.

According to a second characteristic configuration of the present invention, after the removal step of the removal work case,
Water stop means capable of stopping the water split screw hole of the water pipe to the work case, and attachment means connected in a watertight manner to the work case in a state of penetrating and supporting the operation shaft of the water stop means; A water stop jig with a water stop is attached, and the water stop means of this water stop jig is sent to the water splitting screw hole of the water pipe through the work gate valve that has been opened, and the operation shaft of the water stop means is stopped. A step of water operation to stop the watering screw hole,
Removing only the water stop means of the water stop jig from the water pipe while leaving the water stop pipe in the water stop state, and the attachment means of the water stop jig and the working case;
A split T-shaped pipe provided with a branch pipe portion and an opening / closing valve through which the water stopping means of the water stopping jig can be inserted is fixed to the water pipe, and the water stopping means that has been operated to release the water stop is opened and closed. Removing to the downstream side of the valve, removing the water stop means with the on-off valve closed; and
Is in the point that is provided.

According to the above configuration, after the water split screw hole of the water pipe is stopped with the water stop means of the water stop jig attached to the work case, only the water stop means is left in the water pipe in the water stop state. The work case provided with the water stop jig attachment means and the work gate valve is removed from the water pipe.
The branch pipe part and the on-off valve of the split T-shaped pipe fixed to the water pipe need only be of a size that allows water stop means to stop the water split screw hole of the water pipe. Compared to a work case with a valve, the split T-shaped tube can be made compact.
After externally fixing the split T-shaped pipe to the water pipe, the water stop means that has been operated to release the water stop with the operating shaft is taken out downstream of the open / close valve that is being opened, and the open / close valve is closed. Just remove the water stop means.

  A third characteristic configuration according to the present invention is that the first connecting member is a second-shaped water faucet and the second connecting member is an air valve.

According to the above configuration, when removing the waterfall faucet and the air valve from the water pipe in an uninterrupted water state, by connecting the water faucet and the air valve so as not to be detached by the relative rotation restricting means, Since the water faucet and the air valve can be operated as an integrated object, it is not necessary to take a sequential removal work procedure of removing the water faucet from the water pipe after removing the air valve from the water faucet.
Moreover, since the water faucet and the air valve connected by the relative rotation restricting means are surrounded in a watertight state by the work case attached to the water pipe, for example, the water faucet is in an inoperable state when the valve is opened. Even in this case, since the water faucet and the air valve can be removed from the water pipe at the same time in the work case, the water faucet and the air valve screwed to the water pipe can be reduced in the number of work steps. It can be removed efficiently and reliably.

  A fourth characteristic configuration according to the present invention is that the first connecting member is a lower shell of an upper-shaped water faucet, and the second connecting member is an upper body of an upper-shaped water faucet.

  According to the above configuration, when removing the above-mentioned water-dividing faucet from the water pipe in an unrestricted state, the lower trunk and the upper trunk constituting the water-falling faucet are connected to each other by the relative rotation restricting means so as not to be detached. By doing so, it is possible to operate the lower body and the upper body as an integrated object, and therefore it is not necessary to take a sequential removal work procedure of removing the lower body from the water pipe after removing the upper body from the lower body.

  Moreover, the lower trunk and the upper trunk connected by the relative rotation restricting means are surrounded in a watertight state by a work case attached to the water pipe, so that, for example, the upper-shaped water faucet is inoperable when the valve is opened. The lower and upper torso can be removed from the water pipe at the same time in the work case. Can be removed efficiently and reliably with a small number of work steps.

  According to a fifth feature of the present invention, the relative rotation restricting means detachably connects the water faucet and the air valve in a plurality of portions in the circumferential direction at a portion extending between the water faucet and the air valve. Engageable from the rotational operation direction on the unscrewing side of the water faucet with a bearing portion for the valve operating shaft that is divided and at least one of which protrudes from the water faucet housing. A step of mounting the split fixed cylinder provided with the engagement portion from the radially outer side of the plug housing, a step of fixing and connecting a plurality of split fixed cylinders with a fastener, and the split fixed cylinder And a step of fixing the air valve with welding or a fastener.

  According to the above configuration, a plurality of divided fixed cylinders are mounted from the radially outer side in a circumferential direction on a portion extending from the water faucet and the air valve, and the divided fixed cylinders are fixedly connected to each other with a fastener. In the state, the engaging portion provided in at least one of the split fixed cylinders is engaged with the valve operating shaft bearing portion protruding from the stopper housing of the water faucet from the rotational operation direction on the screw release side. In this state, it is possible to reliably prevent relative rotation between the water faucet and the split fixed cylinder by using the bearing portion.

  In addition, in this state, since the mounting posture of the divided fixed cylinder is fixed or substantially fixed, the work of fixing the divided fixed cylinder and the air valve with welding or a fastener can be performed reliably and easily.

  According to a sixth characteristic configuration of the present invention, the step of connecting the removal operation shaft of the removal operation jig to the air valve is formed on a screw cylinder portion formed to protrude at a plurality of locations on the upper surface of the valve housing of the air valve. The step of removing the cover fixed by the bolt, and the removal connecting plate fixedly connected or fixed to the lower end portion of the removal operation shaft in a state where the connection plate is engaged with the screw tube portion in a relatively non-rotatable manner. A step of attaching to the upper surface of the valve housing of the air valve, and a step of screwing and fixing a removal prevention tool for preventing the removal connection plate from moving upward to the screw cylinder portion. is there.

  According to the above configuration, when the removal connection plate fixedly connected or fixed to the lower end portion of the removal operation shaft is attached to the upper surface of the valve housing from which the cover has been removed, the removal connection plate is attached to the upper surface of the valve housing. Therefore, the screw cylinder part is engaged with the screw cylinder part so as not to rotate relative to the screw cylinder part. Just fix it together.

  Accordingly, the screw cylinder portion for attaching the cover, which is formed to project at a plurality of locations on the upper surface of the valve housing of the air valve, is a counter-rotating contact portion for preventing relative rotation with the connecting plate for removal, and Since it is also used as a mounting part for screwing and fixing the removal prevention tool, the removal operation jig can be efficiently and reliably connected to the air valve while simplifying the structure for connecting the removal operation jig to the air valve. Can be linked to.

  7th characteristic structure by this invention is the said removal operation jig used for the fluid apparatus removal method of the water pipe system described in the said 3rd, 5th, or 6th characteristic structure, Comprising: The said air valve is comprised. Of the valve casing and the screw cylinder portion of the valve casing from which the cover is removed. A removal connecting plate having a through-hole or a notch that engages in a state where relative rotation is impossible, and a removal screwed and fixed to the screw cylinder portion in a state in which the removal connecting plate is prevented from moving upward. A removal tool and a removal operation shaft fixedly connected to or fixed to the removal connection plate are provided, and the valve housing of the air valve and the removal member are disposed between the removal connection plate and the removal prevention device. There is flexibility to allow a change in the relative position with the connecting plate within a certain range. Are located in the points are.

  According to the above configuration, when the removal connection plate fixedly connected or fixed to the lower end portion of the removal operation shaft is attached to the upper surface of the valve housing from which the cover has been removed, the through hole or notch of the removal connection plate Engages with the threaded cylinder that protrudes at multiple locations on the top surface of the valve housing in a relatively non-rotatable manner, preventing the removal connecting plate from moving upward to the threaded cylinder. It is only necessary to screw and fix the escape prevention tool.

  Therefore, the screw cylinder portion for attaching the cover, which is formed to protrude at a plurality of positions on the upper surface of the valve housing of the air valve, is a contact portion for detent for preventing relative rotation with the connection plate for removal, And since it is also used as a mounting part for screwing and fixing the removal prevention tool, the removal operation jig can be efficiently used as an air valve while simplifying the structure for connecting the removal operation jig to the air valve. It can be reliably connected.

  Moreover, because of the interchange provided between the removal connecting plate and the withdrawal prevention tool, it is possible to allow a change in the relative posture between the valve housing of the air valve and the removal connecting plate within a certain range. Even when the vertical center line of the water faucet and the air valve is slightly tilted with respect to the vertical center line of the work case and removal work case fixed to the water pipe, the tilt allowance is the valve housing. If it is within the range of operation to change the relative posture due to the interchange between the body and the connection plate for removal, the removal operation jig is fixedly connected to the air valve and the water faucet and air valve are unscrewed. Can be rotated to the side.

  Therefore, since it is not necessary to change the posture of the work case fixed to the water pipe in response to the tilt of the center line of the air valve, the removal operation jig can be efficiently and reliably connected to the air valve. it can.

(6) In the first embodiment described above, the removal operation shaft 23 of the removal operation jig B is fixedly connected to the valve housing 7A of the air valve 7 which is an example of the second connection member. May be fixedly coupled to the plug housing 6A of the second-shaped water faucet 6 which is an example of the first connecting member through the outside of the air valve 7.
Further, the removal operation shaft 23 is fixedly connected to both the air valve 7 and the water faucet 6, and the removal operation shaft 23 cannot be detached from the air valve 7 and the water faucet 6 and substantially. The relative rotation restricting means A that is fixedly connected so as not to be relatively rotatable may also be configured to be used.

  The present invention can efficiently and reliably remove the first connection member screwed to the water pipe and the second connection member screwed to the water pipe with a small number of work steps. Even if water leaks from the threaded connection point between the first connecting member and the first connecting member, the water pipe system fluid device removal method can reliably perform this water leakage countermeasure at a relatively early stage of the removal work process, and It can be used satisfactorily as the removal operation jig used.
