Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a hot water mixing and spouting device for bathrooms and the like.

(Prior art) A conventional hot water mixing and spouting device installed in a bathroom has a faucet attached to the hot water mixing faucet and a handheld shower head connected via a hose, and by switching between these, hot water can be supplied from the faucet to a washbasin, etc. It is configured so that hot water is ejected from the shower head to the body. Shower heads are used by being held in the hand or supported by metal fittings installed on the bathroom wall.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) In the former state of use, both hands cannot be used for washing, and in the latter state of use, the direction of the jet is unstable due to twisting of the hose, etc. It is also not possible to adjust the angle appropriately.

The present invention aims to solve the above problems.

(Means for Solving the Problems) Means for solving the above-mentioned problems will be explained with reference to drawings showing embodiments.The hot water mixing spouting device of the present invention has a hot water mixing faucet 1 that can be operated. A support body 2 is housed in the support body 2, and an ejection part body 3 is rotatably supported on the upper side of the support body 2 from an upright state to a tilted state, and is configured to be supportable at an appropriate position within the rotation range. , a hot water spouting part 4 provided on the front side of the spouting part body 3, and the supporting body 2.
and a hand-held type that is housed in the spouting part body 3 and connected to the hot water spouting part 4 and the hot water mixing faucet part 1 via a first hose 5 and a second hose 9 to the hot water mixing faucet part 1. It is composed of a shower head 10 and a switching lever 16 for switching the flow path to the hot water spouting part 4 and the flow path to the hand-held shower head 10.

The ejection part body 3 includes an engagement body 7 that can be elastically protruded by a spring 6 formed on one side of the support body 2 or the injection part body 3, and an engagement recess 8 formed on the other side. In addition to being configured so that it can be supported at an appropriate position in the rotation range by a positioning mechanism such as a configuration provided with a , it can also be configured to be supported at an appropriate position in the rotation range by manual operation such as tightening operation. .

(Operations and Examples) In the hot water mixing and spouting device of the present invention, the support body 2 is attached to a wall surface 12 of a bathroom or the like with screws 11 or the like, and the hot water mixing faucet 1 is connected to a predetermined hot water supply pipe 13 and water supply. It is used by connecting the pipe 14.

The hot and cold water mixed in the desired ratio by the hot and cold mixer faucet 1 is then transferred to the hot and cold water spouting part 4 by moving the switching lever 16 to the hot and cold water spouting part 4.
When operated to the side, hot water passes through the support body 2 and the first hose 5 in the spouting part body 3 to reach the hot water spouting part 4 provided in the spouting part body 3, from which hot water is spouted. By supporting the spouting unit body 3 at a desired position from an upright position to a tilted position, the adjusted jetting angle of hot water can be maintained without having to support it manually.

For example, if the spouting part body 3 is supported in a position where the hot water spouting part 4 is in a substantially horizontal state, hot water will be spouted directly below from the hot water spouting part 4 at a position away from the wall surface. Even if it is away from the wall, the spouting part body 3 provided with the hot water spouting part 4 is connected to the hot water mixing faucet part 1.
Since it is rotatably supported on the upper side, the hot water spouting part 4 is not too far from the wall surface, and the washbasin can be placed directly below it in the same way as when using a faucet installed in a normal hot water mixing faucet part 2. Hot water can be supplied inside. Therefore, a faucet is not essential to the hot water mixing faucet section 1.

Therefore, in the present invention, instead of a faucet, a hand-held shower head 10 is connected to the hot water mixing faucet 1 via a second hose 9. Depending on the operation, it can be used in place of the hot water spouting part 4.

Next, if the ejection part body 3 is supported in an upright state,
This spouting part body 3 is close to the bathroom wall surface 12 and is in line with the support body 2, and the protruding dimension is small, so it does not get in the way, that is, it can be kept in a stored state, and the hot water mixer faucet Part 1 and first hose 5
Since it is also covered by the support body 2 and the ejection part body 3, it has an excellent appearance.

The hot water mixing faucet 1 applied to the present invention may have a structure in which the water temperature can be automatically adjusted to a set temperature using a heat sensitive element such as a thermostat, or may have a regulating valve on each of the hot water side and the cold water side. It can be configured as appropriate, such as by providing a configuration in which the hot water temperature and discharge rate are manually adjusted using these valves, or a configuration in which the hot water temperature and discharge rate are manually adjusted using respective valves. . Hot water mixing faucet 1 in the illustrated embodiment
The hot water temperature is adjusted by a hot water temperature adjustment knob 15, and the discharge amount is adjusted by a switching lever 16 for switching between the above-mentioned hand-held shower head 10 and the hot water spouting part 4 of the spouting part device body 3 as necessary. This is a configuration that performs the following. Hot water mixing faucet 1 having such a configuration
In order to accommodate the water temperature adjustment knob 15 and the switching lever 16, openings 17 and 18 are formed on the side and front sides of the support body 2, respectively.

(Effects of the Invention) Since the present invention is as described above, it has the following effects.

When using the hot water spouting section, the temperature of the hot water and the angle at which the hot water is jetted from the hot water spouting section can be appropriately adjusted according to preference or necessity, and hair washing and other operations can be performed stably using both hands.

In addition, when using the hot water spouting part, by supporting the spouting part body in a substantially horizontal position, hot water can be spouted directly below from the hot water spouting part at an appropriate distance from the wall surface. As with the use of a faucet installed in a normal hot water mixer faucet, hot water can be supplied into the basin by placing it directly below it. Therefore, since a faucet is not essential for the hot water mixing faucet, a hand-held shower head can be connected via a hose in place of such a faucet. This allows for targeted and intensive cleaning.

By supporting the ejection part body in an upright state, it is close to the bathroom wall and is in line with the support body, and the protruding dimension is reduced, so it does not get in the way, that is, it can be stored. The water mixing faucet and hose are also covered by the container, giving it an excellent aesthetic appearance.

From the above, the present invention can be installed on the wall of a bathroom or the like and used in various ways for humans, and can also be configured as a cleaning device for pets such as dogs.
