JP3019814U - Water tank cap - Google Patents

Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] To provide a cap for a water tank that has a simple structure and is easy to use, and that can take out a very small amount of water in the tank and use up the water in the tank without waste. . [Structure] A hole is drilled in the center of the cap 5 on the discharge port side of the tank 1 (an insertion hole for attaching the discharge hose attached to the cap of a commercially available plastic tank is provided. , And the faucet 6 is attached to this hole through a packing 7 with a seal for watertightness.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a water tank used for storing drinking water and the like, and particularly to a cap thereof.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 When it is necessary to store water due to water supply interruption, use a synthetic resin tank commonly used to store kerosene, so-called poly tank. Often stores water. The inlet and outlet of this plastic tank are relatively large, so when taking out the stored water, replace the funnel-shaped discharge hose attached to the plastic tank with the outlet or use a simple pump. The method is adopted.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, with the above method, it was extremely difficult to extract a very small amount of water, for example, a full glass of water from a tank. In other words, it was not easy to use as a tank for drinking water in places without water supply facilities. In view of the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a cap for a water tank that has a simple structure and is easy to use, and that can take out a very small amount of water in the tank and also use up the water in the tank without waste. The purpose is to do.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 Therefore, in the present invention, a faucet that communicates with the inside of the tank is attached to a cap that opens and closes the outlet of the tank that is formed so that water can be stored therein.

【Example】

 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a state in which a cap according to the present invention is attached to a water tank. FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the main part of FIG.

As shown in FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a commercially available plastic tank, which has a substantially square shape, and a handshake 1 a is integrally formed at the center of the upper surface, and a water inlet 2 and a water outlet 3 are provided. Is provided.

From the inflow port 2 and the exhaust port 3, along the circumference thereof, ridges 2a and 3a formed with threads are projected, and the caps 4 and 5 can be screwed together to close the lids. It has been done.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a hole is formed in the center portion of the cap 5 on the outlet side (the cap of a commercially available plastic tank has an insertion hole for attaching the attached discharge hose). You can use this as well.), And then attach the faucet 6 to this hole via the packing 7 with a watertight seal. In this embodiment, a metal faucet is screwed in and tightened with a nut 8.

Next, a method of using this embodiment will be described. The water tank 1 according to the present invention is closed with a conventional cap for transportation and storage, and is replaced with a cap with a faucet for use. As shown in FIG. 1, when the cap 5 is attached to the discharge port 3 with the water tank 1 lying down, the faucet 6 faces downward. In this state, it is placed on a table or the like, the cap 4 of the inflow port 2 is removed to form an air supply hole, and the faucet 6 is opened to discharge water. Therefore, it is possible to accurately measure and take out as much water as desired even if the amount is very small, and it is possible to avoid waste of water. In this embodiment, the metal faucet 6 is connected to the cap 4, but the invention is not limited to this, and a faucet made of synthetic resin may be integrally formed with the cap. Good.

[0010]

[Effect of the Invention] Since the present invention is configured as described above, it has a simple structure and is easy to use. It is possible to take out a very small amount of water in the tank and to use up the water in the tank without waste. It has an excellent effect.
