Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a highly functional water faucet that has a soap solution supply function and a hot air drying function.

[Prior Art] In conventional washbasins, only a faucet fitting is provided, or a faucet fitting and a water soap container are attached. Also, Utsukai Showa 61-
123441 describes attaching a water soap container to the tip of a faucet.

Note that hot air dryers for drying hands are also known.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In the above-mentioned conventional washbasin, a towel hanger for hanging towels and a hot air dryer are provided in a position different from the washbasin. As a result, there was a problem in that the drops that dripped from the hands fell onto the outside of the basin and wet the surrounding area.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The faucet of the present invention is a high-performance faucet in which a water soap supply port, a water spout, and a hot air outlet are provided on the lower surface of a single outer shell, and The spout is arranged in the center of the faucet on the lower surface in the left-right direction, one of the soap supply port and the hot air outlet is arranged on the left side of the water spout, and the other is arranged on the right side of the water spout. A leg pipe for introducing water soap that communicates with the supply port, a leg pipe for introducing water supply that communicates with the water outlet, and a leg pipe for introducing warm air that communicates with the hot air outlet are respectively connected from the outer shell. It is characterized in that the outer shell is provided with operating parts for supplying soap, discharging water, and blowing out warm air.

[Function] In the faucet of the present invention, after washing hands with the water or hot water discharged from the spout, it is possible to dry the hands with warm air directly below the faucet. Also, soapy water is easily available.

[Example] Examples will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a water faucet according to an embodiment of the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a front view of the same, and FIG. 3 is a bottom view of the same.

Moreover, FIGS. 4 to 7 are sectional views showing the internal structure of the faucet.

The code 10 is the outer shell of the faucet, and there are 3 on the back side.
Book leg tubes 12, 14, and 16 are provided in parallel. The leg pipe 12 is for supplying a water soap solution, and a water soap solution supply pipe 18 is inserted therein. It is connected to a soap solution supply port 20. The supply pipe 18 has a smaller diameter than the leg pipe 12, and a lead wire 22, which will be described later, is inserted into a gap formed between the outer periphery of the supply pipe 18 and the inner periphery of the leg pipe 12. There is.

The leg pipe 14 is for supplying water or hot water, and has a spout 2 bored in the center of the bottom of the outer shell 10.
4 via a water supply pipe 26. Leg tube 1
Reference numeral 6 is for supplying warm air, and it is connected via a blower pipe 30 to a hot air outlet 28 which is provided on the opposite side of the water soap supply port 20 with the water outlet 24 in between. As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, this outer shell 10 is fixed to a washbasin, a wall surface of a building body, etc. by nuts 32 and triangular packings 34 screwed onto the leg pipes 12, 14, 16. And, although not shown,
A water soap container is connected to the supply pipe 18 via a pump, and a temperature control valve of a water supply control device, etc. is connected to the leg pipe 14. Further, a hot air fan is connected to the leg pipe 16.

In this embodiment, an infrared sensor 36 consisting of a light receiving element and a light emitting element is provided on the left and right sides of the water spout 24, and the lead wire 22 of the infrared sensor 36 is drawn out from the outer shell 10 through the leg tube 12 as described above. , connected to a water supply control device (not shown).

On the upper surface of the outer shell 10, there are operation units 38 and 4 for supplying soapy water, discharging water, and blowing out hot air.
0,42 are provided. The operating section 38 is used to supply and stop the water soap solution each time it is pressed once, and the operating section 40 is used to switch between automatic water dispensing using the infrared sensor 36 described above and manual dispensing. . That is, when the operating part 40 is pressed once, this faucet is placed in an automatic operation state, and the hand is moved to the spout 24.
Water is spouted when you hold it out below, and the water stops when you pull your hand back. Furthermore, when the operating section 40 is pressed once more, water is spouted regardless of whether or not a hand is extended, and when the operating section 40 is pressed once more, the automatic operation state is restored.

When the operation part 42 is pressed once, blowing out of hot air is started, and when it is pressed once more, hot air is stopped. In addition, these operation parts 38, 40, 42
Lead wires for outputting operation signals are drawn out from the outer shell 10 through the leg pipes 12 in the same way as the lead wires 22, and are input to the respective control devices.

In a faucet configured in this way, it is possible to dry hands with hot air immediately after washing hands under the faucet. Therefore, there is no chance of dripping and wetting the area around the washbasin equipped with the faucet.
Furthermore, in this embodiment, by operating the operating section 38, the soap solution can be obtained extremely easily.

In this embodiment, the spout 24 is arranged at the center of the outer shell 10 in the left-right direction, and this is for the following reason. That is, when a user of a faucet holds his hand below the faucet to wash his hands, he unconsciously extends his hand below the central part of the faucet. According to this embodiment, since the water spout 24 is arranged in the center, the faucet user's hand is placed at the water spout 24.
It will be located vertically below No. 4, and water will be poured onto the hands without wasting it.

[Effects] As described above, according to the high-performance faucet of the present invention, after washing hands at the faucet, hands can be dried with warm air in the basin without getting the area around the basin wet. . In addition, in the high-performance faucet of the present invention, since the spout is provided in the center of the bottom of the faucet in the left-right direction, the user naturally extends his/her hand below the spout. Water spouted from the spout can be poured onto your hands without wasting it. Since the faucet of the present invention has a protruding leg pipe, it can be easily fixedly installed in various places such as a wash basin or a wall surface of a building body. The water faucet of the present invention can also be installed with a soap solution supply port and a hot air outlet in a single installation process, making installation extremely easy.
