[0003]

The drain pipe joint for general use described above has a connection shape with the drain pipe when the pipe direction of the drain pipe attached to the water tank does not match the direction of the insertion portion of the remote control rod. Although it is necessary to use a joint that is suitable for the site, the latter joint has the insertion parts of the remote control rod at multiple places, so the connection direction of the drainage pipe can be selected, so the inconvenience of the former does not occur. There are no advantages.

However, this joint uses one insertion portion that is optimal for connection with the remote control rod at the installation site, and the other insertion portions are filled with various materials when the cap is closed. In a cluttered and scattered construction site, the cap to be closed may be lost or sometimes lost.

As for members used in general water supply facilities, a standard is established to eliminate the difference in caliber due to the difference in manufacturers, and the materials used are compatible with each other. Regarding the insertion part of the operating rod, when a predetermined cap is lost, there is no cap that can be fitted and can be replaced, and there is a risk that the means for closing the unnecessary insertion part will be in trouble.

Therefore, it has a multidirectional connection function,
In this type of drainage pipe fitting that is used by closing the connection part other than the used connection part, even if the cap is lost, it is one of the commonly used piping materials as a means to close the unused connection part. Therefore, it was a problem to be solved to be able to substitute the alternative cap.

[0007]

In view of the above, the present invention provides a connection part for connecting a drain plug fitting to the upper part of the body, and raises and lowers the plug body provided in the drain plug fitting on one side of the peripheral wall to open and close. A drainage pipe joint that is equipped with an insertion part of a remote control rod to be operated and has a drainage pipe connection port on the other side, and is used for a drainage device of a bathtub or washbasin It is intended to provide a drainage pipe joint having two or more open locations.

This joint, which is provided with connection ports for drainage pipes in multiple directions, has a structure in which all the connection ports provided on the body are provided so that they can be connected to prescribed drainage pipes. In addition to using only the specified cap purchased along with it, it is also possible to install a commercially available cap that the contractor has as a pipe closing tool, and it can be compatible with the lost cap, so if you lose it It does not hurt. In addition, the cap that closes the drain pipe connection port having a large diameter is naturally larger than the insertion part of the remote control rod, and is less likely to be lost or lost.

In the present invention, each connection port with the drain pipe is
By projecting each toward the outside of the joint, and by making the connection structure with the drainage pipe into a short tubular shape integrally,
It will be easier to use. The present invention is as described above,
The present invention has solved the above-mentioned problem.
