DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a toilet installation structure, and more particularly to a toilet installation structure in which a toilet is connected and fixed using a drain socket for connecting a drain port of a toilet and a drain pipe.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, Japanese Laid-Open Utility Model Publication No. 5-12855 discloses an installation structure for a toilet bowl of this type. In this publication, a fixing plate fixed in a T-shape is disposed at a bolt end between a flange portion of a drainage socket and a mounting surface, and the fixing plate is fixed to the mounting surface together with the flange portion by a wood screw. At the same time, the bolt is projected from the flange portion to be inserted into the mounting hole of the toilet seat, and the toilet is fixed to the drain socket by tightening with a nut from the surface of the seat.

[0003]

In this publication, the use of a bolt having a T-shaped fixing plate fixed at the end thereof, because the drainage socket is hidden by the toilet seat when the toilet is fixed, Since the bolt cannot be supported, it is to prevent the bolt from turning even if it is not supported. However, when such a structure is employed, a T-shaped fixing plate is attached to the end. The manufacturing cost is high because the bolts fixed in the form must be specially manufactured, and when different lengths of bolts are required due to differences in the type of toilet bowl, inconvenience must be made with different specifications There is. Further, the bolt is fixed to a mounting surface such as a floor with a wood screw and cannot be moved at all, so that it is not possible to finely adjust the installation direction of the toilet when the toilet is mounted. The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and the object thereof is to make it possible to use commercially available bolts to reduce costs and to use bolts of different lengths. The purpose is to be able to easily respond when needed. In addition to the above object, the present invention has a toilet mounting structure in which a toilet mounting bolt is fixed to a floor so that stress is not applied to a flange portion when tightening a nut. It is also an object to enable fine adjustment of the direction.

[0004]

In order to achieve the above object, in the toilet installation structure of the present invention, there is provided a drainage socket interposed between a drainage pipe and a drainage port of the toilet to connect them,
A flange portion provided on the outer periphery of the drainage socket and abutting on the floor; a fixing plate mounted on the upper surface of the flange portion and fixed to the floor with a fixing member such as a wood screw together with the flange portion; Toilet mounting bolts that are erected through
A bolt detent part formed integrally with the fixing plate and engaging with the head of the toilet mounting bolt to hold the toilet mounting bolt non-rotatably ;
A bolt is provided on the lower surface and at least the inner peripheral surface is a bolt head.
The toilet bowl is formed in a shape corresponding to the shape of the part, and the toilet bowl mounting bolt is fixed to the toilet bowl by inserting the bolt into the mounting hole of the base of the toilet bowl and tightening it with a nut. Also, the bolt locking hole and the bolt insertion hole of the fixing plate may be formed so that the head mounting bolt is engaged with the former to penetrate the latter and the toilet mounting bolt is slightly concentric with the drain socket in the circumferential direction or the circular tangential direction. It is desirable to make the shape that allows the movement of the toilet bowl, or to make the mounting hole of the toilet pedestal a long hole concentrically and circumferentially or tangentially to the drain port of the toilet. In the present invention, the fixing member such as a wood screw includes, in addition to the wood screw, a bolt that is fastened and fixed using a screw thread, a nail that is fastened and fixed without using a screw thread, and the like.

[0005]

In the toilet structure constructed as described above, the drainage socket is held down by a fixing plate, fixed to the floor with a wood screw or the like, and the toilet mounting bolt is erected by inserting the fixing plate. Is self-rotatable by the engagement of the head with the bolt detent. Therefore, even if a commercially available bolt is used as it is as a toilet mounting bolt, there is no inconvenience that the bolt is rotated by tightening the nut. When the toilet is attached, a force is applied to the toilet in a direction of rotating the drain port around the drain port, so that the toilet fixing bolt slides in the bolt detent part. According to the third aspect of the present invention, when the toilet slides the bolt for fixing the toilet through the mounting hole to the guide, the toilet slightly pivots left and right, respectively, and the direction of the toilet is adjusted.

A square shape that engages and prevents rotation of the bolt
That it may be a shape other than hexagon such as
Needless to say.

[0018]

The present invention is configured as described above, and has the following effects. (1). Hold the flange of the drainage socket with a fixing plate, fix it to the floor with wood screws, etc., insert the fixing plate and erect a toilet mounting bolt, and engage the head of the bolt with the fixing plate Since the bolt rotation stop part that holds the bolt so that it does not rotate is formed, a commercially available bolt can be used for the toilet mounting bolt, it is not necessary to manufacture and use a special structure, In addition, even when a bolt having a different length is required due to a difference in the type of toilet bowl, a bolt having a suitable length can be selected from commercially available bolts and used, thereby reducing costs. (2). In addition, the bolt detent part formed on the fixing plate
Is formed in a shape corresponding to the shape of the head of the bolt, so that there is no backlash when tightening the bolt, and the tightening operation is easy to perform. (3). In addition, in addition to the above-described effects, the inventions of claims 2 and 3 can also finely adjust the installation direction of the toilet by slightly rotating the toilet right and left when the toilet is installed.
According to the third aspect , a conventional toilet having a circular mounting hole can be used as it is, and there is no need to perform special processing on the toilet to enable fine adjustment when installing the toilet, which is convenient. .
