Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to unit rooms such as unit bathrooms and unit shower rooms, and more specifically relates to improvements in unit rooms that effectively utilize the corners of washing areas as piping space.

(Conventional technology) Conventionally, this type of unit room was
A unit shower room described in Japanese Patent No. 56856 is known.

As shown in Figure 4, in this unit shower room, a faucet mounting wall panel A' is raised to cover the corner of the washing area 4, a piping space _A2 ' is formed on the back side, and the faucet is installed. Faucet appliances such as a shower appliance 1 and a mixing faucet 6 are attached to the wall panel A', and water supply and hot water supply pipes are arranged in the piping space _a2 '.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) According to the above-mentioned conventional unit room, the faucet mounting wall panel A' is raised so as to face the washing area 4 diagonally, so its positioning is troublesome and unnecessary for forming the room wall. Not only does this require a lot of time and effort, but it also has the drawback of requiring the faucet mounting wall panel A' to be removed when maintenance and inspection of the water supply and hot water supply pipes is performed after the room construction.

The present invention was developed in view of the conventional circumstances described above, and its purpose is to improve the stability of the faucet mounting panel when it is set in a corner, and to improve the stability of the faucet mounting panel after the room is constructed. To enable easy inspection of water supply and hot water pipes.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above object, the unit room of the present invention includes a main body having a faucet mounting surface diagonally facing the washing area, and a faucet mounting surface formed at both ends of the main body. A faucet mounting wall panel is constituted by the connection piece and a cover body that covers the piping space formed on the back side of the faucet equipment mounting surface, and the wall panel is attached to the upper surface of the bulge provided at the corner of the washing area. It is characterized in that the lower ends of the main body and the cover are flush with each other, and an inspection opening is formed in the front surface of the bulge.

(Function) According to the above configuration, the lower end of the main body and the lower end of the cover body come into contact with the upper surface of the bulging part, so that the lower end contact surface of the faucet mounting wall panel is expanded, and its self-supporting stability is improved. The faucet mounting wall panel can be set by simply raising the wall panel onto the upper surface of the bulge provided at the corner of the washing area. In addition, faucet equipment is installed on the faucet equipment mounting surface, and water supply and hot water supply branch pipes connected to the faucet equipment are arranged in the piping space, and this water supply,
By connecting the hot water supply branch pipe and the water supply and hot water supply main pipes on the back side of the bulge, maintenance and inspection of the water supply and hot water supply pipes after room construction can be performed through the inspection port provided in the bulge.

(Example) An example of the present invention is shown below in FIGS. 1 and 2.
Or, it will be explained based on FIG.

1 and 2 show a unit shower room C related to the unit room of the present invention, and FIG. 3 shows a unit bathroom D, respectively. These unit rooms include a shower pan c with a washing area 4,
Wall-mounted surfaces c ₁ , d ₁ are provided on the periphery of the bathtub d with a washing area, and a large number of wall panels 5 are erected on the wall-mounted surfaces c ₁ , d ₁ , and a bulging portion 4 is provided at the corner of the washing area 4 . A faucet mounting wall panel A is erected at ', and these adjacent panels are connected to form a room wall, and the upper surface is covered with a ceiling panel (not shown).

The bulging portion 4' has a front surface formed with a water return surface 4'a having a portion obliquely facing the washing area 4, and a panel mounting surface flush with the wall mounting surfaces _c1 , _d1 on the upper surface. An inspection port 7 is opened in the water return surface 4'a, and the lower end sides of water supply branch pipes 2 and hot water supply branch pipes 3, which will be described later, are inserted into the panel mounting surface 4'b. .

The faucet mounting panel A includes a main body part _a1 , a connecting piece _a3 , and a cover body _a2 , which are made of synthetic resin or other materials.

The main body part a ₁ has a faucet fixture mounting surface a ₁ ′ that diagonally faces the washing area 4 and extends from both ends of the faucet fixture mounting surface a ₁ ′ to the ends of the adjacent wall panel 5. When installed in the corner of the washing area ₄ , a piping space _a2 ' is formed on the back side of the faucet fixture mounting surface _a1 '.
An adjacent wall panel 5 is located at the end of the continuous wall surface a ₁ ″.
The connecting piece A3 is integrally formed with the connecting piece _A3 .

In addition, this main body part a ₁ is formed in a planar shape approximately 〓 in FIGS. 1 and 2, and in a planar approximately 〓 shape in FIG. Any shape may be used as long as a faucet fixture mounting surface a ₁ ′ diagonally facing the washing area 4 is formed and a piping space a ₂ ′ is formed on the back side thereof.

In the case of Fig. 1, the cover body _a2 is an elongated body with a planar shape, and its opening surface is the faucet fixture mounting surface.
A ₁ ′ is abutted and fixed so as to be closed on the back side of the shape to form a piping space A ₂ ′ inside the shape, and in the case of Fig. 3, the piping space A on the back side of the faucet mounting surface A ₁ ′ is ₂ ', and these piping spaces _a2 ' have a water supply branch pipe 2 for a mixing faucet 6 connected to the shower appliance 1 via a hose 1', and a hot water supply branch. A tube 3 is provided.

The water supply branch pipe 2 and the hot water supply branch pipe 3 have their upper ends connected to the mixing faucet 6, and their lower ends inserted through the panel mounting surface 4'b of the bulging portion 4' to be located on the back side of the inspection port 7. 7 is connected to the water supply main pipe 8 and the hot water supply main pipe 9 on the back side.

The lower end of the cover body _a2 is formed to be flush with the lower end position of the main body part _a1 , thereby increasing the contact area of the lower end of the faucet mounting wall panel A, and increasing the contact area of the lower end of the faucet mounting wall panel A.
This makes it possible to improve the self-sustaining stability when temporarily placed in a .

Therefore, the above-mentioned faucet mounting wall panel A is attached to the washing area 4.
The connecting piece A3 is placed on the upper surface of the bulge 4' formed at the corner of the wall panel 5, and the connecting piece _A3 is fitted into the stud together with the bent piece 5' of the adjacent wall panel 5 to seal the joint, or simply fastened with screws, etc. Incorporate it as part of the room wall using this method. Then, using the inspection port 7 provided on the front side of the bulging portion 4', supply water to the hot water supply branch pipes 2 and 3.
is connected to the lower water supply and hot water main pipes 8 and 9.

The shower appliance 1, mixing faucet 6, water supply and hot water supply branch pipes 2 and 3 may be installed in advance at the factory or may be installed on site. Incidentally, when installing on-site, the back side of the cover body _a2 or the faucet attachment surface _a1 ' can be opened and closed, and the water supply and hot water supply branch pipes 2 and 3 are closed after installation.

(Effects of the invention) Since the unit room of the invention is constructed as explained above, stability is improved when setting the faucet mounting wall panel at the corner and when connecting it to the adjacent wall panel. It is possible to eliminate the risk of extra effort required for forming the room walls.
In addition, maintenance and inspection of the water supply and hot water supply systems after the room is constructed can be carried out extremely easily through the inspection port without removing the wall panel.
