Description

本発明は、水栓装置に関し、特に、吐出部が回転可能な水栓装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a faucet device, and more particularly, to a faucet device in which a discharge portion can rotate.

吐出管が回転可能な水栓装置が知られている。例えば、特許文献１には、キッチンのシンクなどに取付、吐水管を左右方向に回動させる水栓が記載されている。特許文献１に記載の水栓は、水栓の設置場所に取り付けた場合に、吐水管を左右方向に最大の範囲に回動させたときにシンク外に吐水されないように吐水管の回動範囲を設定することができる。 There is known a faucet device in which a discharge pipe can rotate. For example, Patent Document 1 describes a faucet that is attached to a kitchen sink or the like and rotates a water discharge pipe in the left-right direction. When the faucet described in Patent Document 1 is attached to the place where the faucet is installed, the rotation range of the water discharge pipe is such that water is not discharged outside the sink when the water discharge pipe is rotated to the maximum range in the left-right direction. Can be set.

特許文献１に記載の水栓は、水栓内部に設けられた回動範囲設定用の部材を交換することにより回動体の回転範囲を変更するように構成されている。この水栓では、回動範囲設定用の部材が水栓本体の中央部に取付けられているので、回動範囲を変更するためには、水栓を分解し、シール部を外して回動範囲設定用の部材を交換することになる。この場合、回転範囲の変更作業に多大な手間がかかり、シール部の脱着によりシール性能を損ない漏水を生じる懸念がある。
これらから、本発明者らは、従来の水栓には、回動体の回動範囲を容易に変更可能にする観点で改善すべき課題があることを認識した。 The faucet described in Patent Document 1 is configured to change the rotation range of the rotating body by exchanging a rotation range setting member provided inside the faucet. In this faucet, the rotation range setting member is attached to the central part of the faucet body. In order to change the rotation range, the faucet is disassembled, the seal portion is removed, and the rotation range is set. The setting member will be replaced. In this case, it takes a lot of time to change the rotation range, and there is a concern that the sealing performance is impaired due to the attachment and detachment of the seal portion, resulting in water leakage.
From these, the present inventors recognized that the conventional faucet has a problem to be improved from the viewpoint of easily changing the rotation range of the rotating body.

本発明の目的は、このような課題に鑑みてなされたもので、回転部の回転範囲の設定を容易に変更することが可能な水栓装置を提供することにある。 An object of the present invention is to provide a faucet device capable of easily changing the setting of the rotation range of the rotating portion.

上記課題を解決するために、本発明のある態様の水栓装置は、設置部に固定されるアダプタ部材と、アダプタ部材に連結される水栓本体部と、吐水部を有し水栓本体部に対して回転可能な回転部と、回転部の回転範囲を規制する回転規制部と、を備える。回転規制部は、水栓本体部に設けられる第１規制部と、回転部と共に回転し、第１規制部と協働して回転部の回転範囲を規制する第２規制部と、回転範囲を変更するための変更部材と、を含む。変更部材は、水栓本体部とアダプタ部材の連結部分に設けられる。 In order to solve the above-described problem, a faucet device according to an aspect of the present invention includes an adapter member fixed to an installation portion, a faucet body portion connected to the adapter member, and a faucet body portion. And a rotation restricting portion that restricts the rotation range of the rotating portion. The rotation restricting portion includes a first restricting portion provided in the faucet main body portion, a second restricting portion that rotates together with the rotating portion and restricts the rotation range of the rotating portion in cooperation with the first restricting portion, and a rotation range. A change member for changing. A change member is provided in the connection part of a faucet main-body part and an adapter member.

この態様によると、変更部材が水栓本体部とアダプタ部材の連結部分に設けられるため、回転規制部を設置部の近傍に配置することができる。 According to this aspect, since the changing member is provided at the connection portion between the faucet body and the adapter member, the rotation restricting portion can be disposed in the vicinity of the installation portion.

［実施の形態］
図１、図２を参照して、本発明の実施の形態に係る水栓装置について説明する。図１は、実施の形態の水栓装置の一例を示す側面図である。図２は、水栓装置１００の設置状態を示す平面図である。水栓装置１００は、アダプタ部材２８と、水栓本体部３０と、回転部４０と、回転規制部１０と、を備える。アダプタ部材２８は、水栓装置１００を設置する箇所（以下、「設置部５０」という）に固定される部材である。水栓本体部３０は、アダプタ部材２８に連結される。図２に示すように、回転部４０は、吐水部４２を有し水栓本体部３０に対して左右方向（水平方向）に回転可能に設けられる。回転規制部１０は、回転部４０の回転範囲を規制する。回転規制部１０については後述する。 [Embodiment]
A faucet device according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. Drawing 1 is a side view showing an example of the faucet device of an embodiment. FIG. 2 is a plan view showing the installation state of the water faucet device 100. The faucet device 100 includes an adapter member 28, a faucet body part 30, a rotating part 40, and a rotation restricting part 10. The adapter member 28 is a member that is fixed to a place where the faucet device 100 is installed (hereinafter referred to as “installation unit 50”). The faucet body 30 is connected to the adapter member 28. As shown in FIG. 2, the rotating part 40 has a water discharge part 42 and is provided so as to be rotatable in the left-right direction (horizontal direction) with respect to the faucet body part 30. The rotation restricting unit 10 restricts the rotation range of the rotating unit 40. The rotation restricting unit 10 will be described later.

図１に示すように、回転部４０は、水栓本体部３０を収容する胴部４４と、スパウト部４６と、を有する。本実施形態の胴部４４は、略中空の円筒形を有し、水栓本体部３０を環囲する。以下、胴部４４の中心線Ｌａに沿った方向を「軸方向」といい、その中心線Ｌａを中心とする円の円周方向、半径方向をそれぞれ「周方向」、「径方向」とする。また、以下、便宜的に、軸方向の一方側（図中上側）を上側といい、他方側（図中下側）を下側という。スパウト部４６は、胴部４４の側面から突出する管状の部分で先端部分に吐水部４２を有する。この例の吐水部４２は、下向きに水を吐き出すことができる。 As shown in FIG. 1, the rotating portion 40 includes a trunk portion 44 that houses the faucet main body portion 30 and a spout portion 46. The body portion 44 of the present embodiment has a substantially hollow cylindrical shape and surrounds the faucet body portion 30. Hereinafter, a direction along the center line La of the trunk portion 44 is referred to as an “axial direction”, and a circumferential direction and a radial direction of a circle centered on the center line La are referred to as a “circumferential direction” and a “radial direction”, respectively. . Hereinafter, for convenience, one side in the axial direction (upper side in the figure) is referred to as the upper side, and the other side (lower side in the figure) is referred to as the lower side. The spout part 46 is a tubular part protruding from the side surface of the body part 44 and has a water discharge part 42 at the tip part. The water discharger 42 in this example can discharge water downward.

図１に示すように、アダプタ部材２８および水栓本体部３０の下部は、これらの少なくとも一部を覆うカバー部材である環状のリングカバー４８によって環囲される。リングカバー４８は、設置部５０に当接する裾部分が径方向に拡がった形状を有する、中空の略円筒状の部材である。リングカバー４８の筒状の部分の外径は、胴部４４の下部と略等しい。図１に示すように、回転規制部１０は、水栓本体部３０のアダプタ部材２８との境界近傍に設けられており、リングカバー４８に環囲される部分と、胴部４４に環囲される部分と、を含む。 As shown in FIG. 1, the lower part of the adapter member 28 and the faucet body 30 is surrounded by an annular ring cover 48 that is a cover member that covers at least a part of these. The ring cover 48 is a hollow, substantially cylindrical member having a shape in which a skirt portion that abuts the installation portion 50 expands in the radial direction. The outer diameter of the cylindrical portion of the ring cover 48 is substantially equal to the lower portion of the body portion 44. As shown in FIG. 1, the rotation restricting portion 10 is provided in the vicinity of the boundary between the faucet body portion 30 and the adapter member 28, and is surrounded by a portion surrounded by the ring cover 48 and the trunk portion 44. And including a part.

本実施形態のアダプタ部材２８は、設置部５０に固定される中空の略円筒状の部材である。アダプタ部材２８の外周部に水栓本体部３０の下部が嵌合される。 The adapter member 28 of the present embodiment is a hollow substantially cylindrical member that is fixed to the installation portion 50. The lower part of the faucet body 30 is fitted to the outer periphery of the adapter member 28.

水栓本体部３０は、ユーザにより操作される操作ハンドル３８と、弁ユニット３６と、を有する。弁ユニット３６は、操作ハンドル３８に対する操作を通じて吐水部４２から吐き出される水の流量を調整することができる。本実施形態において、操作ハンドル３８はシングルレバーであり、弁ユニット３６は操作ハンドル３８に対する操作を通じて水の温度も調整可能である。 The faucet body 30 includes an operation handle 38 operated by a user and a valve unit 36. The valve unit 36 can adjust the flow rate of water discharged from the water discharger 42 through an operation on the operation handle 38. In this embodiment, the operation handle 38 is a single lever, and the valve unit 36 can also adjust the temperature of water through the operation on the operation handle 38.

水栓装置１００の水栓本体部３０は、たとえば、流し台、洗面台、洗面キャビネット等の設置部５０に設置される。本実施形態の設置部５０は、正面側（図２の下側）に居るユーザの作業に用いられるカウンター５２と、カウンター５２に一体化された水受槽５４と、を備える。水受槽５４は、たとえば、キッチンシンク、洗面ボウル等である。このように配置された水栓装置１００では、多くの場合、水栓本体部３０の背面側（図２の上側）は正面側より目立ちにくい。 The faucet body part 30 of the faucet device 100 is installed in an installation part 50 such as a sink, a wash basin, or a wash cabinet, for example. The installation unit 50 of the present embodiment includes a counter 52 used for a user's work on the front side (the lower side in FIG. 2), and a water receiving tank 54 integrated with the counter 52. The water receiving tank 54 is, for example, a kitchen sink or a wash bowl. In the faucet device 100 arranged in this way, in many cases, the back side (the upper side in FIG. 2) of the faucet body 30 is less noticeable than the front side.

図２に示すように、水栓装置１００は、回転部４０が所定の回転範囲で回転できるように設置部５０に設置される。回転部４０の回動範囲は、最大範囲で回転しても水受槽５４の外部に吐水されないように設定されることが望ましい。図２において破線で示すように、水栓装置１００を設置部５０の中央近傍に設ける場合、回転範囲θ１を大きく設定することができる。図２において実線で示すように、水栓装置１００を設置部５０の中央から横方向にずれた位置に設ける場合、回転範囲θ２を回転範囲θ１よりも小さく設定することが望ましい。このため、本実施形態の回転規制部１０は、回転部４０の回転範囲をθ１とθ２との間で容易に変更できるように構成されている。 As shown in FIG. 2, the faucet device 100 is installed in the installation unit 50 so that the rotation unit 40 can rotate within a predetermined rotation range. It is desirable that the rotation range of the rotation unit 40 is set so that water is not discharged outside the water receiving tank 54 even if the rotation unit 40 rotates within the maximum range. As shown by a broken line in FIG. 2, when the faucet device 100 is provided near the center of the installation unit 50, the rotation range θ1 can be set large. As shown by a solid line in FIG. 2, when the faucet device 100 is provided at a position shifted laterally from the center of the installation unit 50, it is desirable to set the rotation range θ2 smaller than the rotation range θ1. For this reason, the rotation restricting portion 10 of the present embodiment is configured so that the rotation range of the rotating portion 40 can be easily changed between θ1 and θ2.

図３を参照して本実施形態の回転規制部１０の動作を説明する。図３は、回転規制部１０の動作を模式的に示す模式図である。図３は、回転規制部１０を平面に展開した状態を示している。回転規制部１０は、第１規制部３２と、第２規制部１２と、変更部材１６と、を含む。第１規制部３２は、水栓本体部３０に設けられる規制部材である。第１規制部３２は、回転部４０が回転しても静止した状態を維持する静止部材である。第２規制部１２は、回転部４０と共に回転し、第１規制部３２と協働して回転部４０の回転範囲を規制する。変更部材１６は、第１規制部３２と第２規制部１２との間に設けられることにより回転範囲を変更する部材である。 The operation of the rotation restricting unit 10 of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram schematically showing the operation of the rotation restricting unit 10. FIG. 3 shows a state where the rotation restricting portion 10 is developed on a plane. The rotation restricting portion 10 includes a first restricting portion 32, a second restricting portion 12, and a changing member 16. The first restriction part 32 is a restriction member provided in the faucet body part 30. The first restricting portion 32 is a stationary member that maintains a stationary state even when the rotating portion 40 rotates. The second restricting unit 12 rotates with the rotating unit 40 and regulates the rotation range of the rotating unit 40 in cooperation with the first restricting unit 32. The changing member 16 is a member that changes the rotation range by being provided between the first restricting portion 32 and the second restricting portion 12.

変更部材１６は、水栓本体部３０とアダプタ部材２８の連結部分に設けられる。本実施形態の変更部材１６は、複数の装着姿勢によって水栓本体部３０に装着可能な形状を有する。変更部材１６は、装着姿勢を変更することにより回転規制範囲を切り替えることができる。図３の（ａ）、（ｂ）、（ｃ）はそれぞれ複数の装着姿勢の一部を示している。 The change member 16 is provided at a connection portion between the faucet body 30 and the adapter member 28. The changing member 16 of the present embodiment has a shape that can be mounted on the faucet body 30 by a plurality of mounting postures. The change member 16 can switch the rotation restriction range by changing the mounting posture. (A), (b), and (c) of FIG. 3 each show a part of a plurality of mounting postures.

図３（ａ）に示すように、変更部材１６が外された状態では、第２規制部１２は、２つのストッパ部３２ａ、３２ｂの間で方向Ｒ（図中左右方向）に移動することができる。この場合、変更部材１６は、一方のストッパ部３２ａ（図中左側）に接する位置から、他方のストッパ部３２ｂ（図中右側）に接する位置までθ０の範囲内で移動可能である。 As shown in FIG. 3A, in a state in which the changing member 16 is removed, the second restricting portion 12 can move in the direction R (the left-right direction in the drawing) between the two stopper portions 32a and 32b. it can. In this case, the changing member 16 can move within a range of θ0 from a position in contact with one stopper portion 32a (left side in the drawing) to a position in contact with the other stopper portion 32b (right side in the drawing).

図３（ｂ）では、変更部材１６は、第１調整部１６ｂ、１６ｃが上、第２調整部１６ｄ、１６ｅが下になる第１姿勢で装着される。第１調整部１６ｂ、１６ｃの周方向の間隔は、第２調整部１６ｄ、１６ｅの周方向の間隔より大きく設定されている。変更部材１６が第１姿勢で装着された状態では、第２規制部１２は、変更部材１６の第１調整部１６ｂ、１６ｃの間で方向Ｒに移動することができる。この場合、変更部材１６は、一方の第１調整部１６ｂに接する位置から、他方の第１調整部１６ｃに接する位置までθ１の範囲内で移動可能である。第１調整部１６ｂ、１６ｃの分、回転範囲は狭くなるので、θ１はθ０より小さい。 In FIG. 3 (b), the changing member 16 is mounted in a first posture in which the first adjustment units 16b and 16c are up and the second adjustment units 16d and 16e are down. The interval in the circumferential direction of the first adjustment units 16b and 16c is set larger than the interval in the circumferential direction of the second adjustment units 16d and 16e. In a state where the changing member 16 is mounted in the first posture, the second restricting portion 12 can move in the direction R between the first adjusting portions 16b and 16c of the changing member 16. In this case, the changing member 16 is movable within a range of θ1 from a position in contact with one first adjustment portion 16b to a position in contact with the other first adjustment portion 16c. Since the rotation range is narrowed by the amount of the first adjusters 16b and 16c, θ1 is smaller than θ0.

図３（ｃ）では、変更部材１６は、第２調整部１６ｄ、１６ｅが上で第１調整部１６ｂ、１６ｃが下である第２姿勢で装着される。第２調整部１６ｄ、１６ｅの周方向の間隔は、第１調整部１６ｂ、１６ｃの周方向の間隔より小さく設定されている。変更部材１６が第２姿勢で装着された状態では、第２規制部１２は、変更部材１６の第２調整部１６ｄ、１６ｅの間で方向Ｒに移動することができる。この場合、変更部材１６は、一方の第２調整部１６ｄに接する位置から、他方の第２調整部１６ｅに接する位置までθ２の範囲内で移動可能である。図３の例では、第２調整部１６ｄ、１６ｅの間の間隔は、第１調整部１６ｂ、１６ｃの間の間隔より小さく設定されているので、θ２はθ１より小さい。 In FIG. 3C, the changing member 16 is mounted in a second posture in which the second adjusting portions 16d and 16e are on and the first adjusting portions 16b and 16c are on the bottom. The interval in the circumferential direction of the second adjustment units 16d and 16e is set smaller than the interval in the circumferential direction of the first adjustment units 16b and 16c. In a state where the changing member 16 is mounted in the second posture, the second restricting portion 12 can move in the direction R between the second adjusting portions 16d and 16e of the changing member 16. In this case, the changing member 16 is movable within a range of θ2 from a position in contact with one second adjustment portion 16d to a position in contact with the other second adjustment portion 16e. In the example of FIG. 3, the interval between the second adjustment units 16d and 16e is set to be smaller than the interval between the first adjustment units 16b and 16c, so that θ2 is smaller than θ1.

胴部４４を説明する。図６は、胴部４４を示す斜視図である。図６に示すように、胴部４４は、水栓本体部３０を環囲する全体として略中空円筒状の部材である。胴部４４の下部の正面側の内周面には、径方向内向きに突出する突起４４ｂが設けられる。胴部４４の内周面の下部には、内周面の上部より外向きに凹んだ周状凹部４４ｃが形成されており、突起４４ｂは周状凹部４４ｃから内向きに突出している。突起４４ｂは、水栓本体部３０の外周面に略平行な内周面を備え、後述する第２規制部１２の係合凹部１２ｄに係合する形状を有する。この例の係合凹部１２ｄは、正面視で略矩形の輪郭を有する。突起４４ｂが係合凹部１２ｄに係合することにより、第２規制部１２は、胴部４４の回転に連れて回転する。一例として、胴部４４は、ＡＢＳ樹脂、ポリプロピレン樹脂、ポリアセタール樹脂などの樹脂材料により形成されてもよい。 (Torso)
The trunk | drum 44 is demonstrated. FIG. 6 is a perspective view showing the trunk portion 44. As shown in FIG. 6, the trunk portion 44 is a substantially hollow cylindrical member as a whole surrounding the faucet body portion 30. A protrusion 44 b that protrudes inward in the radial direction is provided on the inner peripheral surface on the front side of the lower portion of the body portion 44. A circumferential recess 44c that is recessed outward from the upper portion of the inner peripheral surface is formed at the lower portion of the inner peripheral surface of the body portion 44, and the protrusion 44b protrudes inward from the circumferential recess 44c. The protrusion 44b has an inner peripheral surface that is substantially parallel to the outer peripheral surface of the faucet body 30 and has a shape that engages with an engaging recess 12d of the second restricting portion 12 described later. The engaging recess 12d in this example has a substantially rectangular outline in front view. When the protrusion 44b is engaged with the engaging recess 12d, the second restricting portion 12 rotates as the body portion 44 rotates. As an example, the body portion 44 may be formed of a resin material such as an ABS resin, a polypropylene resin, or a polyacetal resin.

（第２規制部）
第２規制部１２を説明する。図７は、第２規制部１２を示す斜視図である。図７に示すように、第２規制部１２は、リング部１２ａと、係合凹部１２ｄと、突出部１２ｅと、を有する。リング部１２ａは、背面側に１つのスリット１２ｓを有する全体としてリング状の部材である。係合凹部１２ｄは、リング部１２ａの上面から下向きに凹む凹部で、リング部１２ａの正面側に設けられる。この例の係合凹部１２ｄは、突起４４ｂが係合するための凹部で、正面視で略矩形形状を有する。突出部１２ｅは、リング部１２ａの下面から下向きに突出する舌状部分であり、係合凹部１２ｄに対応してリング部１２ａの正面側に設けられる。突出部１２ｅは、第１規制部３２と変更部材１６とで区画される可動空間内を移動可能な形状を有する。この例の突出部１２ｅは正面視で略矩形形状を有する。 (Second Regulatory Department)
The 2nd control part 12 is demonstrated. FIG. 7 is a perspective view showing the second restricting portion 12. As shown in FIG. 7, the 2nd control part 12 has the ring part 12a, the engagement recessed part 12d, and the protrusion part 12e. The ring portion 12a is a ring-shaped member as a whole having one slit 12s on the back side. The engagement recess 12d is a recess recessed downward from the upper surface of the ring portion 12a, and is provided on the front side of the ring portion 12a. The engaging recess 12d in this example is a recess for engaging the protrusion 44b, and has a substantially rectangular shape when viewed from the front. The protruding portion 12e is a tongue-like portion that protrudes downward from the lower surface of the ring portion 12a, and is provided on the front side of the ring portion 12a corresponding to the engaging recess 12d. The protruding portion 12 e has a shape that can move in a movable space defined by the first restricting portion 32 and the changing member 16. The protrusion 12e in this example has a substantially rectangular shape when viewed from the front.

胴部４４が回転すると、第２規制部１２はリング収容部３０ｂ内を摺動しながら回転する。このため、第２規制部１２の耐摩耗性は高いことが望ましい。そこで、本実施の形態の第２規制部１２は、胴部４４よりも耐摩耗性の高い材料で形成されている。一例として、第２規制部１２は、ＡＢＳ樹脂、ポリプロピレン樹脂、ポリアセタール樹脂などの樹脂材料により形成されてもよい。 When the body portion 44 rotates, the second restricting portion 12 rotates while sliding in the ring housing portion 30b. For this reason, it is desirable that the wear resistance of the second restricting portion 12 is high. Therefore, the second restricting portion 12 of the present embodiment is formed of a material having higher wear resistance than the body portion 44. As an example, the 2nd control part 12 may be formed with resin materials, such as ABS resin, polypropylene resin, and polyacetal resin.

（変更部材）
変更部材１６を説明する。図８は、変更部材１６を示す斜視図である。図８（ａ）は、第１姿勢の変更部材１６を示し、図８（ｂ）は、第２姿勢の変更部材１６を示す。図８に示すように、変更部材１６は、変更部材収容部３０ｃに装着可能な形状の半円弧形状の部材である。変更部材１６は、接続部１６ｍと、２つの装着部１６ｆ、１６ｇと、２つの係合突起１６ｊと、を含む。接続部１６ｍは、変更部材収容部３０ｃの外周面に沿って周方向に延びる棒状の部分である。２つの装着部１６ｆ、１６ｇは、それぞれ突出部１２ｅの移動範囲を制限するために、変更部材収容部３０ｃの取付部３０ｅに装着される部分である。２つの装着部１６ｆ、１６ｇは、左右に離隔して接続部１６ｍの両端に接続される。２つの係合突起１６ｊは、２つの装着部１６ｆ、１６ｇの内周面から径方向に突出する側面視で略円形の突起である。係合突起１６ｊは、係合凹部３０ｄに係合可能な形状を有する。 (Changed member)
The changing member 16 will be described. FIG. 8 is a perspective view showing the changing member 16. 8A shows the changing member 16 in the first posture, and FIG. 8B shows the changing member 16 in the second posture. As shown in FIG. 8, the changing member 16 is a semicircular arc-shaped member that can be attached to the changing member housing portion 30c. The change member 16 includes a connection portion 16m, two mounting portions 16f and 16g, and two engagement protrusions 16j. The connecting portion 16m is a rod-like portion extending in the circumferential direction along the outer peripheral surface of the change member housing portion 30c. The two mounting portions 16f and 16g are portions that are mounted on the mounting portion 30e of the changing member housing portion 30c in order to limit the movement range of the protruding portion 12e. The two mounting portions 16f and 16g are connected to both ends of the connection portion 16m so as to be separated from each other left and right. The two engaging protrusions 16j are substantially circular protrusions in a side view protruding in the radial direction from the inner peripheral surfaces of the two mounting portions 16f and 16g. The engagement protrusion 16j has a shape that can be engaged with the engagement recess 30d.

第１姿勢は、第１調整部１６ｂ、１６ｃが上であり、第２調整部１６ｄ、１６ｅが下である姿勢である。この姿勢では、突出部１２ｅの可動範囲は、第１調整部１６ｂ、１６ｃの間に制限される。第２姿勢は、第２調整部１６ｄ、１６ｅが上であり、第１調整部１６ｂ、１６ｃが下である姿勢である。この姿勢では、突出部１２ｅの可動範囲は、第２調整部１６ｄ、１６ｅの間に制限される。第１調整部１６ｂ、１６ｃの周方向の間隔は、第２調整部１６ｄ、１６ｅの周方向の間隔より大きく設定されているので、第１姿勢の可動範囲は第２姿勢の可動範囲より大きい。第１調整部１６ｂと第２調整部１６ｄとは、装着部１６ｆに設けられ、第１調整部１６ｃと第２調整部１６ｅとは、装着部１６ｇに設けられる。一例として、変更部材１６は、ＡＢＳ樹脂、ポリプロピレン樹脂、ポリアセタール樹脂などの樹脂材料により形成されてもよい。 The first posture is a posture in which the first adjustment units 16b and 16c are up and the second adjustment units 16d and 16e are down. In this posture, the movable range of the protruding portion 12e is limited between the first adjusting portions 16b and 16c. The second posture is a posture in which the second adjustment units 16d and 16e are up and the first adjustment units 16b and 16c are down. In this posture, the movable range of the protruding portion 12e is limited between the second adjusting portions 16d and 16e. Since the circumferential interval between the first adjustment units 16b and 16c is set larger than the circumferential interval between the second adjustment units 16d and 16e, the movable range of the first posture is larger than the movable range of the second posture. The first adjusting unit 16b and the second adjusting unit 16d are provided in the mounting unit 16f, and the first adjusting unit 16c and the second adjusting unit 16e are provided in the mounting unit 16g. As an example, the changing member 16 may be formed of a resin material such as an ABS resin, a polypropylene resin, or a polyacetal resin.

次に、図９〜図１２を参照して回転規制部１０の動作を説明する。図９、図１０は、回転規制部１０の動作を示す正面視の図であり、胴部４４、リングカバー４８を省略している。図１１、図１２は、水栓装置１００の回転範囲を示す下面視の図であり、リングカバー４８を省略している。図１１、図１２は、図４のＡ−Ａ線に沿った下面視の断面図である。図９、図１１は、変更部材１６が第１姿勢で装着された第１の回転範囲を示す。図１０、図１２は、変更部材１６が第２姿勢で装着された第２の回転範囲を示す。 Next, the operation of the rotation restricting unit 10 will be described with reference to FIGS. 9 and 10 are front views showing the operation of the rotation restricting portion 10, and the trunk portion 44 and the ring cover 48 are omitted. 11 and 12 are bottom views showing the rotation range of the faucet device 100, and the ring cover 48 is omitted. 11 and 12 are cross-sectional views in bottom view along the line AA in FIG. 9 and 11 show a first rotation range in which the changing member 16 is mounted in the first posture. 10 and 12 show a second rotation range in which the changing member 16 is mounted in the second posture.

図９、図１０に示すように、第２規制部１２は、スリット１２ｓを用いてリング収容部３０ｂに嵌め込まれる。また、変更部材１６は、係合突起１６ｊを係合凹部３０ｄに係合させることにより、変更部材収容部３０ｃに装着される。 As shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the second restricting portion 12 is fitted into the ring accommodating portion 30b using the slit 12s. Further, the changing member 16 is attached to the changing member accommodating portion 30c by engaging the engaging protrusion 16j with the engaging recess 30d.

図９の例では、突出部１２ｅは、第１調整部１６ｂに当接する位置から、第１調整部１６ｃに当接する位置まで移動することができる。この場合、図１１に示すように、回転部４０の回転範囲θ１は、破線で示すスパウト部４６の位置から実線で示すスパウト部４６の位置までの角度であり、１１０°に設定されている。この図において、スパウト部４６が水平方向に延びる位置を基準にした回転範囲は、時計回りに５５°、反時計回りに５５°の範囲である。なお、回転範囲θ１は、１１０°より大きく設定されてもよいし、１１０°より小さく設定されてもよい。 In the example of FIG. 9, the protrusion 12e can move from a position where it abuts on the first adjustment part 16b to a position where it abuts on the first adjustment part 16c. In this case, as shown in FIG. 11, the rotation range θ1 of the rotating unit 40 is an angle from the position of the spout unit 46 indicated by a broken line to the position of the spout unit 46 indicated by a solid line, and is set to 110 °. In this figure, the rotation range based on the position where the spout portion 46 extends in the horizontal direction is a range of 55 ° clockwise and 55 ° counterclockwise. The rotation range θ1 may be set larger than 110 ° or smaller than 110 °.

図１０の例では、突出部１２ｅは、第２調整部１６ｄに当接する位置から、第２調整部１６ｅに当接する位置まで移動することができる。この場合、図１２に示すように、回転部４０の回転範囲θ２は、破線で示すスパウト部４６の位置から実線で示すスパウト部４６の位置までの角度であり、９０°に設定されている。この図において、スパウト部４６が水平方向に延びる位置を基準にした回転範囲は、時計回りに４５°、反時計回りに４５°の範囲である。なお、回転範囲θ２は、９０°より大きく設定されてもよいし、９０°より小さく設定されてもよい。 In the example of FIG. 10, the protrusion 12e can move from a position where it abuts on the second adjustment part 16d to a position where it abuts on the second adjustment part 16e. In this case, as shown in FIG. 12, the rotation range θ2 of the rotating part 40 is an angle from the position of the spout part 46 indicated by a broken line to the position of the spout part 46 indicated by a solid line, and is set to 90 °. In this figure, the rotation range based on the position where the spout portion 46 extends in the horizontal direction is a range of 45 ° clockwise and 45 ° counterclockwise. The rotation range θ2 may be set larger than 90 ° or smaller than 90 °.

次に、図１３、図１４を参照して、水栓装置１００の第３、第４の回転範囲について説明する。図１３は、水栓装置１００の第３の回転範囲を示す下面視の図であり、図１４は、水栓装置１００の第４の回転範囲を示す下面視の図である。これらの図は、図４のＡ−Ａ線に沿った下面視の断面図であり、リングカバー４８を省略している。 Next, the third and fourth rotation ranges of the faucet device 100 will be described with reference to FIGS. 13 and 14. FIG. 13 is a bottom view showing the third rotation range of the faucet device 100, and FIG. 14 is a bottom view showing the fourth rotation range of the faucet device 100. These drawings are cross-sectional views in a bottom view along the line AA in FIG. 4, and the ring cover 48 is omitted.

前述したように、変更部材１６は、水栓本体部３０の変更部材収容部３０ｃの互いに異なる位置に装着される２つの装着部１６ｆ、１６ｇを含んでいる。水栓装置１００の回転規制部１０は、２つの装着部１６ｆ、１６ｇの一方を除去することにより回転部４０の回転範囲を変更することができる。装着部の除去は、接続部１６ｍを工具で切断することにより、容易に行うことができる。 As described above, the changing member 16 includes the two mounting portions 16f and 16g that are mounted at different positions of the changing member housing portion 30c of the faucet main body portion 30. The rotation restricting portion 10 of the water faucet device 100 can change the rotation range of the rotating portion 40 by removing one of the two mounting portions 16f and 16g. Removal of the mounting portion can be easily performed by cutting the connection portion 16m with a tool.

図１３の例の変更部材１６は、装着部１６ｆを残して装着部１６ｇが切除された状態で、変更部材収容部３０ｃに第１姿勢で装着されている。この例の突出部１２ｅは、ストッパ部３２ｂに当接する位置から、第１調整部１６ｂに当接する位置まで移動することができる。この場合、図１３に示すように、回転部４０の回転範囲θ３は、破線で示すスパウト部４６の位置から実線で示すスパウト部４６の位置までの角度であり、１３０°に設定されている。この図において、スパウト部４６が水平方向に延びる位置を基準にした回転範囲は、時計回りに７５°、反時計回りに５５°の範囲である。 The change member 16 in the example of FIG. 13 is attached to the change member accommodation portion 30c in the first posture in a state where the attachment portion 16g is cut away with the attachment portion 16f remaining. The protrusion 12e in this example can move from a position where it comes into contact with the stopper portion 32b to a position where it comes into contact with the first adjustment portion 16b. In this case, as shown in FIG. 13, the rotation range θ3 of the rotating unit 40 is an angle from the position of the spout unit 46 indicated by the broken line to the position of the spout unit 46 indicated by the solid line, and is set to 130 °. In this figure, the rotation range based on the position where the spout portion 46 extends in the horizontal direction is a range of 75 ° clockwise and 55 ° counterclockwise.

図示はしないが、変更部材１６は、装着部１６ｇを残して装着部１６ｆが切除された状態で、第１姿勢で装着されてもよい。この場合の突出部１２ｅは、第１調整部１６ｃに当接する位置から、ストッパ部３２ａに当接する位置まで移動することができる。この場合の回転部４０の回転範囲は、時計回りに５５°、反時計回りに７５°の範囲であり、その合計範囲は１３０°である。 Although not shown, the changing member 16 may be mounted in the first posture in a state in which the mounting portion 16f is cut away except for the mounting portion 16g. In this case, the protruding portion 12e can move from a position where it comes into contact with the first adjustment portion 16c to a position where it comes into contact with the stopper portion 32a. The rotation range of the rotating unit 40 in this case is a range of 55 ° clockwise and 75 ° counterclockwise, and the total range is 130 °.

図１４の例の変更部材１６は、装着部１６ｇを残して装着部１６ｆが切除された状態で、変更部材収容部３０ｃに第２姿勢で装着されている。この例の突出部１２ｅは、ストッパ部３２ｂに当接する位置から、第２調整部１６ｅに当接する位置まで移動することができる。この場合、図１４に示すように、回転部４０の回転範囲θ４は、破線で示すスパウト部４６の位置から実線で示すスパウト部４６の位置までの角度であり、１２０°に設定されている。この図において、スパウト部４６が水平方向に延びる位置を基準にした回転範囲は、時計回りに７５°、反時計回りに４５°の範囲である。 The changing member 16 in the example of FIG. 14 is mounted in the changing member housing portion 30c in the second posture with the mounting portion 16f removed while leaving the mounting portion 16g. In this example, the protruding portion 12e can move from a position where it comes into contact with the stopper portion 32b to a position where it comes into contact with the second adjustment portion 16e. In this case, as shown in FIG. 14, the rotation range θ4 of the rotating unit 40 is an angle from the position of the spout unit 46 indicated by the broken line to the position of the spout unit 46 indicated by the solid line, and is set to 120 °. In this figure, the rotation range based on the position where the spout portion 46 extends in the horizontal direction is a range of 75 ° clockwise and 45 ° counterclockwise.

図示はしないが、変更部材１６は、装着部１６ｆを残して装着部１６ｇが切除された状態で、第２姿勢で装着されてもよい。この場合の突出部１２ｅは、第２調整部１６ｄに当接する位置から、ストッパ部３２ａに当接する位置まで移動することができる。この場合の回転部４０の回転範囲は、時計回りに４５°、反時計回りに７５°の範囲であり、その合計範囲は１２０°である。 Although not shown, the changing member 16 may be mounted in the second posture in a state in which the mounting portion 16g is cut away leaving the mounting portion 16f. In this case, the protruding portion 12e can move from a position where it comes into contact with the second adjustment portion 16d to a position where it comes into contact with the stopper portion 32a. In this case, the rotation range of the rotation unit 40 is 45 ° clockwise and 75 ° counterclockwise, and the total range is 120 °.

図示はしないが、変更部材１６が非装着の場合、突出部１２ｅは、ストッパ部３２ｂに当接する位置から、ストッパ部３２ａに当接する位置まで移動することができる。この場合の回転部４０の回転範囲は、時計回りに７５°、反時計回りに７５°の範囲であり、その合計範囲は１５０°である。このように、本実施形態の変更部材１６によれば、装着姿勢の変更と装着部の切除との組合わせにより、回転部４０の回転範囲を６通りに変更することができる。 Although not shown, when the changing member 16 is not attached, the protruding portion 12e can move from a position where it comes into contact with the stopper portion 32b to a position where it comes into contact with the stopper portion 32a. The rotation range of the rotating unit 40 in this case is a range of 75 ° clockwise and 75 ° counterclockwise, and the total range is 150 °. Thus, according to the change member 16 of this embodiment, the rotation range of the rotation part 40 can be changed to six ways by the combination of the change of the mounting posture and the excision of the mounting part.

次に、図１５、図１６を参照して、本実施形態の水栓装置１００の回転範囲の変更工程の一例について説明する。図１５、図１６は、水栓装置１００の回転範囲の変更工程を説明する図である。これらの図では、胴部４４の記載を省いている。水栓装置１００は、その設置前の状態で変更部材１６の装着姿勢の変更などにより回転部４０の回転範囲を変更することができる。また、水栓装置１００は、設置部５０に設置された状態でも、容易に回転範囲を変更することができる。ここでは、設置部５０に設置された状態の水栓装置１００における回転範囲の変更工程を説明する。この場合、アダプタ部材２８は設置部５０に固定されている。 Next, an example of the changing process of the rotation range of the faucet device 100 of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 15 and 16. FIG. 15 and FIG. 16 are diagrams for explaining the changing process of the rotation range of the faucet device 100. In these drawings, the description of the body portion 44 is omitted. The faucet device 100 can change the rotation range of the rotating unit 40 by changing the mounting posture of the changing member 16 in a state before installation. In addition, the faucet device 100 can easily change the rotation range even when installed in the installation unit 50. Here, the process of changing the rotation range in the faucet device 100 installed in the installation unit 50 will be described. In this case, the adapter member 28 is fixed to the installation part 50.

（１）まず、貫通孔４８ｈからねじ孔３０ｈが見える位置までリングカバー４８を回転させる。具体的には、貫通孔４８ｈが正面側に来るようにリングカバー４８を回転させる。
（２）工具を用いて、ねじ孔３０ｈから皿ねじ４８ｂを外す（図１５）。この状態で、水栓本体部３０はアダプタ部材２８から分離可能であるが、変更部材１６はリングカバー４８に覆われている。

以上が、本実施形態の水栓装置１００の説明である。 This changing process is merely an example, and the order of the processes may be changed, or some processes may be added, deleted, or changed.
The above is the description of the faucet device 100 of the present embodiment.

本発明の一態様の概要は、次の通りである。本発明のある態様の水栓装置１００は、設置部５０に固定されるアダプタ部材２８と、アダプタ部材２８に連結される水栓本体部３０と、吐水部４２を有し水栓本体部３０に対して回転可能な回転部４０と、回転部４０の回転範囲を規制する回転規制部１０と、を備える。回転規制部１０は、水栓本体部３０に設けられる第１規制部３２と、回転部４０と共に回転し、第１規制部３２と協働して回転部４０の回転範囲を規制する第２規制部１２と、回転範囲を変更するための変更部材１６と、を含み、変更部材１６は、水栓本体部３０とアダプタ部材２８の連結部分に設けられる。 The outline of one embodiment of the present invention is as follows. The faucet device 100 according to an aspect of the present invention includes an adapter member 28 fixed to the installation part 50, a faucet body part 30 connected to the adapter member 28, and a water discharge part 42. A rotation unit 40 that can rotate relative to the rotation unit 40 and a rotation regulation unit 10 that regulates the rotation range of the rotation unit 40 are provided. The rotation restricting portion 10 rotates together with the first restricting portion 32 provided in the faucet main body portion 30 and the rotating portion 40 and cooperates with the first restricting portion 32 to restrict the rotation range of the rotating portion 40. Part 12 and a change member 16 for changing the rotation range, and change member 16 is provided at a connecting portion between faucet body 30 and adapter member 28.

この態様によると、変更部材１６が水栓本体部３０とアダプタ部材２８の連結部分に設けられるため、水栓本体部３０を僅かに持上げた状態で、変更部材１６を操作して回転部４０の回転範囲を変更することができる。水栓本体の中央部に変更用の部材を設ける場合に比べて、水栓装置を施工する者が容易に変更することができ、回転範囲の変更作業の手間を軽減することができる。また、変更作業に伴うシール性能の低下の可能性も小さくなる。 According to this aspect, since the changing member 16 is provided at the connecting portion of the faucet body 30 and the adapter member 28, the changing member 16 is operated with the faucet body 30 slightly lifted to operate the rotating portion 40. The rotation range can be changed. Compared with the case where a member for changing is provided in the central portion of the faucet body, the person who constructs the faucet device can easily change it, and the labor for changing the rotation range can be reduced. In addition, the possibility of a decrease in sealing performance associated with the changing operation is reduced.

水栓本体部３０は、変更部材１６を装着するための複数の取付部を有してもよい。この場合、変更部材１６を装着する取付部を変更することにより容易に回転部４０の回転範囲を変更することができる。 The faucet body portion 30 may have a plurality of attachment portions for mounting the changing member 16. In this case, the rotation range of the rotating part 40 can be easily changed by changing the attachment part to which the changing member 16 is attached.

回転規制部１０は、変更部材１６の装着姿勢を変更することにより回転範囲を変更可能に構成されてもよい。この場合、変更部材１６の装着姿勢を変更することにより容易に回転部４０の回転範囲を変更することができる。 The rotation restricting unit 10 may be configured to change the rotation range by changing the mounting posture of the changing member 16. In this case, the rotation range of the rotating unit 40 can be easily changed by changing the mounting posture of the changing member 16.

回転部４０は、水栓本体部３０を環囲する胴部４４を有し、第２規制部１２は、胴部４４よりも耐摩耗性の高い材料で形成されている。この場合、第２規制部１２の摩耗による故障の可能性を小さくすることができる。 The rotating part 40 has a body part 44 that surrounds the faucet body part 30, and the second restricting part 12 is formed of a material having higher wear resistance than the body part 44. In this case, the possibility of failure due to wear of the second restricting portion 12 can be reduced.

変更部材１６は、水栓本体部３０の互いに異なる位置に装着される２つの装着部１６ｆ、１６ｇを含み、回転規制部１０は、２つの装着部１６ｆ、１６ｇの一方を除去することにより回転範囲を変更可能に構成されてもよい。この場合、装着部１６ｆ、１６ｇの一方を除去することにより回転範囲を変更できるので、変更可能な回転範囲の段階数を増やすことができる。 The changing member 16 includes two mounting portions 16f and 16g that are mounted at different positions on the faucet body portion 30, and the rotation restricting portion 10 has a rotation range by removing one of the two mounting portions 16f and 16g. May be configured to be changeable. In this case, since the rotation range can be changed by removing one of the mounting portions 16f and 16g, the number of steps of the changeable rotation range can be increased.

変更部材１６は、水栓本体部３０とアダプタ部材２８を連結させた状態でカバー部材であるリングカバー４８の内側に位置してもよい。この場合、水栓装置１００の施工者が通常の連結作業をするだけで、変更部材１６を目立たない位置に配置することができる。 The change member 16 may be positioned inside the ring cover 48 that is a cover member in a state where the faucet body 30 and the adapter member 28 are connected. In this case, the construction member of the water faucet device 100 can arrange the changing member 16 in an inconspicuous position only by performing a normal connection operation.
