光源が水栓金具の下方の洗浄作業位置から離れるため、
照度が不足しがちである。十分な照度を得ようとする
と、照明がまぶし過ぎたり、大きな電力を必要とする難
点がある。When a lighting device is provided on a wall surface, a ceiling, a lower surface of a hanging cabinet, or the like as in the conventional case,
Since the light source moves away from the cleaning work position below the faucet fitting,
The illuminance tends to be insufficient. Attempts to obtain sufficient illuminance have the drawback that the lighting is too dazzling and requires a large amount of power.
【０００４】従って、本発明は、照明がまぶし過ぎず、

含ませれば、洗浄と同時に殺菌を行なうことができる。In the faucet fitting with a lighting device of the present invention, since the faucet fitting itself is provided with the light projecting portion, it is close to the cleaning work site, and therefore, the cleaning work site is concentrated with a relatively small amount of light. It can be illuminated and power consumption can be kept to a minimum. When the light source device is provided at a position distant from the faucet fitting and the light emitting device and the light projecting unit are connected by an optical fiber, the enlargement of the faucet fitting can be avoided. Further, if the light emitted from the light projecting section contains ultraviolet rays having a sterilizing power, the sterilization can be performed simultaneously with the cleaning.
