Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to domestic plumbing equipment, and is intended to enable the design of rooms in a home to be easily and inexpensively changed. Furthermore, by connecting a movable combustion appliance to this piping equipment, it is suitable for holding a party in a living room or the like at home.

[Prior Art] and [Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In a private home, the layout of the rooms is decided at the beginning, and this is also the case when changing the family composition or changing the layout of the room in a second-hand house. Is it difficult to change the layout of the room?
It was going to be expensive. This is because, in addition to removing partition walls and replacing the floor surfaces, it is not possible to make large-scale changes to the layout of rooms unless you also change the gas, water supply, and drainage piping in the room that connects to the building frame.

Therefore, it was decided that the arrangement of combustion appliances such as sinks, bathtubs, and stoves would not be changed in the room, but that these appliances would only be replaced.

This is especially noticeable in concrete housing such as condominiums, where the basic building frame has a long service life of 50 years, and during that time, the layout of rooms may change due to aging equipment, changes in residents, changes in lifestyle, etc. There are times when it becomes necessary to make fundamental changes, but if you want to improve the plumbing equipment, the construction work will be large-scale, take a long time, and incur a large amount of money.

[Means for solving the problem] Therefore, this invention was developed as a house that assumes the arrangement of rooms and the movement of equipment @ equipment, and its gist is as follows.
A plurality of pipes selected from gas, water supply, drainage, hot water supply, air supply, exhaust, electric wires, etc. are routed in parallel under the floor or on a low wall of a room in a house, and a connection unit is installed at the desired location. sink, gas range, washstand,
The piping equipment is characterized in that it can be easily connected to equipment such as bathtubs.

[Example] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail based on the example shown in the drawings.

Figure 1 shows the floor plan of an IDK apartment, and Figure 2 shows a room with a larger <3LDK floor plan. Piping runs under the floors of all of these rooms. The piping included here is not just one, but a combination of multiple or more such as water supply, drainage, hot water supply, gas, electric wire, air supply, exhaust, compressed air, ground wire, cable (for home automation), etc. do.

For example, if water-related equipment is considered important, at least piping for hot water supply and water supply and drainage will be required, and exhaust and cables will be added as necessary.

It may be a combination of water supply, drainage, hot water supply, and electric wires (if gas is eliminated to avoid danger and the heat source is electricity),
In addition to water supply, drainage, hot water supply, and electric wires, exhaust and cables can be added in any combination.

In the illustrated example, the pipe 1 is continuous in a loop shape, but it may also be in a hook shape with a dead end.

A plurality of connection units 2 are provided in the middle of this piping 1. The connection unit 2 is arranged according to the layout assumed depending on the size and configuration of the room.

These connection units 2 are equipment equipment (
The structure and position of the connection unit 2 may be changed depending on whether the former is for a sink or the latter is for a cooking appliance.

3 and 4 show examples of the connection unit 2, in which a part of the flooring 3 is removable and the connection unit 2 is shown here.
It is designed to make you want to.

This connection unit 2 includes a rectangular board 21 and this board z1.
It consists of a pipe joint 22 that is passed through the pipe.
It is designed to be covered with a removable cover plate 4 when not in use, and a hot water supply pipe 11, a water supply pipe 12, and a drain pipe 13 are arranged in parallel under the floor.
The joints 22 of the hot water pipe 11 and the water supply pipe 12 that constitute the connection unit 2 are normally closed by springs, etc., and the plug 6 provided at the tip of the flexible pipe 5 from the installed equipment such as the sink is inserted. After insertion and connection, a stop valve 23 provided on the surface of the board 21 can be opened, so that hot water can be supplied to a faucet (not shown) in the sink.

An adapter 7 is press-fitted into the pipe joint 22 of the drain pipe 13 constituting the connection unit 2, and a plastic bellows hose 8 from the drain hole of the sink is screwed into the adapter 7.

FIG. 5 and subsequent figures show examples of other equipment (# equipment and connection unit 2), and the same parts are shown only with reference numerals, and detailed explanations are omitted.

In Fig. 5, the pipe l that runs under the floor is made up of a water supply pipe 11 and a drain pipe 13 arranged in parallel, and a flexible pipe 5 from the sink S.
and the pipe joint 22 of the connection unit 2. The one shown here has the simplest configuration and allows the positions of the sink S and the washbasin to be changed.

In Figure 6, the pipes l running under the floor are water supply pipe 11 and hot water supply pipe 1.
2. An electric conduit (detailed illustration is omitted) is added to the drain pipe.

Therefore, the outlet 24 is made to face the board 21. The cover plate 4 is fastened to the pipe joint 22 and the outlet 24 with strings or chains 41 to prevent loss. Further, a box body 25 is provided below the board 21 to cover the pipe joint 22 and the like.

In Figure 7, the pipe l that goes around the floor is the gas pipe 14° and the exhaust pipe 1.
5, and is suitable for gas range G and gas staples.

FIG. 8 shows the structure shown in FIG. 7 with a conduit added. This makes it compatible with not only gas range G and gas staples, but also heating cooking appliances including microwave ovens.

In the illustrated example, the piping 1 is shown as being installed under the floor, but if the wall is thick, it may be placed around the bottom of the wall.
It is desirable to run it below 0cs+, and it may also be routed under the floor including the lower part of the wall surface.

[Effects of the invention] This invention has the above-mentioned configuration, and allows multiple types of piping, such as gas, water supply and drainage, hot water supply, supply and exhaust, and electric wires, to be grouped together, which were conventionally piped only to the necessary locations according to the room layout. Since they are arranged in parallel and routed around each room, it is easy to accommodate moving equipment or a movable kitchen.

In other words, when remodeling a condominium or the like, including changing the room layout, the location of equipment and equipment will not be changed, but the conventional connection unit will be used when equipment is moved due to a change in layout. By closing the unit and connecting it with an adapter to another connection unit, it is now possible to easily connect it to equipment such as sinks, gas ranges, wash basins, bathtubs, etc. This eliminates the need for extending or replacing pipes.
