A protrusion 12 is provided on the upper surface of the floor flange 5, and an insertion hole 14 is bored in the protrusion 12 for inserting a fixing device 13 such as a screw for fixing the receiving metal fitting 6 to the floor 3. . Further, the inner periphery of the floor flange 5 is formed into a flap-shaped portion 16, and a protrusion 17 is provided on the outer surface of the flap-shaped portion 16. The floor flange 5 has an oval shape with both sides of a perfect circle cut off, and both sides form straight edges 22 parallel to each other. Further, center marks 21 are provided on the front, rear, left and right sides of the upper surface of the floor flange 5, respectively. Here, the lines connecting the center marks 21 on opposite sides intersect at right angles, and the point at which they intersect at right angles is set to be the center of flange 5. In the embodiment shown in the drawings, the straight edges 22 on both sides of the floor flange 5 and the center marks 21 provided on the front, rear, left and right sides of the upper surface of the floor flange 5 are respectively positioned by the positioning means B.
It's summery.

Next, the floor flange body A with the drainage short pipe of the above configuration
To install the Western-style toilet bowl 1 using the following method, proceed as follows. That is, a hole 15 is bored in the floor 3 such as a floor pan, and the drain short pipe 2 of the floor flange body A with a drain short pipe is inserted into the hole 15, and the floor flange 5 is placed on the upper surface of the floor 3. In this case, although the rattle-shaped portion 16 is provided, the protrusion 17 provided on the outer surface of the rattle-shaped portion 16 serves as a slip-preventing member, and the floor flange body with a drainage short pipe is prevented from shifting with respect to the hole 15. A can be placed. Further, the floor flange 5 is positioned using the straight edge 22 and center mark 21, which are the positioning means B provided on the floor flange 5. For example, since the floor flange 5 has an oval shape and has straight edges 22 on both sides, the straight edges 22
Align the floor flange 5 with the pattern on the top of the floor 3, or measure the distance from the wall of the room.
It is also used to set the position by using the line connecting the center marks 2 on opposite sides of the center marks 21 made on the front, back, left and right sides of the upper surface of the floor flange 5 (for example, to set the position on the floor 3). This method is used to attach a mark and make it correspond to the mark, or to make it correspond to the pattern on the upper surface of the floor 3 to accompany the positioning setting), and when a line connecting the center mark 21 on the opposite side is used. It also simplifies construction when it comes to piping connections to buildings. By using the positioning means B as described above, the mounting direction of the floor flange 5 in the rotating direction can be easily specified, and the fixing position of the Western-style toilet bowl 1 can be easily set. In the embodiment shown in the drawings, the linear edges 22 provided on both sides and the center marks 21 on the front, rear, left, and right sides are used as the positioning means B, but it is possible to use only the linear edges 22 provided on both sides or only the center marks 21 on the front, rear, left, and right sides. It's also good. By the way, both ends of the receiving fitting 6, which has an inverted U-shaped cross section, are fitted into protrusions 12 protruding from the upper surface of the floor flange 5, and a fixing device 13 such as a screw is inserted through the insertion hole 18 of the receiving fitting 6. It is inserted into an insertion hole 18 provided in the protrusion 12 and fixed to the floor 3. Therefore, the floor flange body A with the drainage short pipe and the receiving metal fitting 6 are attached at the same time by the fixing tool 13. Next, the head 11 of the bolt 9 is inserted through the large diameter portion 10 at the end of the elongated hole 8 of the receiving metal fitting 6, and the bolt 9 is slid into the elongated hole 8 and attached. Next, the Western-style toilet 1 is installed on the upper surface of the floor 3, the bolts 9 are inserted into the mounting holes 19 of the Western-style toilet 1, and the nuts 20 are tightened to install the Western-style toilet 1. In the attached drawings, 23 is a seal packing, and 24 is a sealing material. By the way, since the receiving metal fitting 6 is made separate from the floor flange 5, the bolts 11 are slidably attached to the receiving metal fitting 6, and the receiving metal fitting 6 is fixed to the floor 3 by the fixing device 13, it is not necessary to attach the bolts 9 to the floor flange 5 itself. Not only is there no need for a long hole for attachment, but it is also no longer necessary to provide a recess on the bottom surface of the floor flange 5 for adjusting the position by moving the head 11 of the bolt 9 along the bottom surface of the long hole. floor flange 5
The wall thickness can be made substantially constant over the entire surface, and strength can be ensured. Therefore, there is no problem in terms of strength even if the floor flange body A with the drainage short pipe is made of synthetic resin. Also, since the receiving fitting 6 has an inverted U-shaped cross section, the head 11 of the bolt 9 can be inserted and slid to adjust the position of the bolt 9. Also, the inverted U-shaped cross section increases the strength. strongly,
It is possible to make the wall thinner than a flat plate. Furthermore, as in the embodiment, the protrusion 12 having the insertion hole 14 is provided on the upper surface of the floor flange 5, and the receiving metal fitting 6 is placed on the protrusion 12 and fixed with the fixing tool 13 using the insertion hole 14, so that the floor flange Even if water builds up on the upper surface of 5, water will not enter through the insertion hole 14. Although the embodiment shown in the drawings shows an example in which the floor flange 5 and the drainage short pipe 2 are integrated, the floor flange 5 and the drainage short pipe 2 may be separated as in the conventional example shown in FIG. It is also good to do so. In this case as well, the floor flange 5 may be provided with straight edges 22 on both sides of the floor flange 5 or
The positioning means B is formed by placing center marks 21 on the front, back, left and right sides of the upper surface of the holder.
