Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to an equipment unit that has good workability for water supply piping and hot water supply piping, is excellent in economic efficiency, and has high safety against water leakage.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, a wall panel and a door panel were assembled on the upper edge of the washing hot bath cypress, and a ceiling panel was fixed above it to form an indoor space, and the interior was equipped with a low tank connected to a washbasin and toilet bowl. The unit has been widely praised for its short construction period and ease of use. The hot water/water supply pipe of the basin faucet of the equipment unit and the water supply pipe of the low tank were connected to the hot water/water supply riser pipe on the building side through a socket that penetrated the waist wall or wall panel of the washing hot tub. .

Specifically, a conventional example will be explained below based on FIG.
A wall panel 5, a door panel (not shown), and a ceiling panel (not shown) are assembled on the four peripheral wall surfaces of a washing bathtub 2 in which a bathtub 3 and a washing area 4 are integrally formed, and a washbasin 7 is fixed to the wall panel 5. At the same time, a low tank 8 connected to a toilet bowl (not shown) is fixed to a wall panel 5 on the side of the washing area 4, and a mixing faucet 9 is attached to the wall panel 5 above the washbasin 7. To connect the washbasin 7 and low tank 8 to outdoor piping, install the water supply riser pipe 10, 10 and the hot water riser pipe 11 on the building side in advance at a predetermined position and height in the piping space outside the equipment unit 1. After assembling the equipment unit l, insert the socket into the piping opening provided in the wall panel 5, first align and connect the socket and the riser piping 10, 10 and 11, and then connect the socket. The other end was connected to a mixing faucet 9 and a low tank 8 via piping.

Therefore, the conventional equipment unit has the following problems.

(1) The connection between the water supply/hot water riser pipe on the building side and the socket on the back of the wall panel is almost invisible (it is difficult to do this by groping by hand, and the outlet of the riser pipe for water supply is almost invisible). There are two locations, one for the tap and one for the low tank, and the lower part of the riser pipe is branched by a single pipe and connected to each other, so the positioning accuracy is inaccurate, especially the length of the indoor piping from the socket to the low tank is not suitable. This caused inconvenience during the construction work.

(2) Even if an unexpected situation such as water leaks from the joint between the building's water supply/hot water supply riser pipe and socket, it will not be easily discovered because the connection point is on the back of the wall panel, and after discovery. For repairs, the wall panels had to be removed, which required large-scale repair work and was complicated.

(3) Since a piping space (t) for the building-side riser pipe is required between the equipment unit and the building wall, dead space is created and the building floor space cannot be used effectively, which is uneconomical.

Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional art, and it facilitates the connection work between building-side piping and indoor equipment such as washbasin faucets and low tanks, and also prevents shallow water from forming from the piping connections. The purpose of the present invention is to provide an equipment unit that can be repaired indoors and does not require piping space.
