Description

Bathroom valve device {Bathroom water valve}

The present invention relates to a valve device for a bathroom, and more particularly, to a valve device for a bathroom, in which disassembly and assembly are simple, so that replacement or maintenance of parts may be convenient, and functionality may be greatly enhanced than before. .

A water valve or a water valve is a device that mixes or uses only cold / hot water supplied from the outside to adjust water of a required temperature by an amount required.

Although a valve is usually called a faucet, some parts of the faucet may be referred to as a valve.

Recently released valves have been strengthened than conventional in terms of functionality. That is, while controlling the amount of tap water (including hot water through the boiler) supplied from the outside, select the cold / hot water or mix them to adjust the water temperature and provide it.

As a valve of this type, a single-lever valve which is easy to operate and has a good water saving effect is widely used in recent years, and is widely applied to a sink or a bathroom.

On the other hand, even if it provides any function, the basic purpose of the valve is to have a structure as shown in Figure 1 as the water quantity control.

Referring to FIG. 1, a general valve, that is, a valve device 1 for a bathroom, includes a body 2, a valve 2, a lever 5, and a nozzle 6.

The body 2 has a shape similar to that of a general water valve as a whole. That is, the front end has a cylindrical shape bent downward.

The bent front end is formed with a water discharge port 3 formed with a male screw, and a pipe connection part 4 is formed at the rear end.

The valve 5 may use all existing valves, and is installed at the center of the body 2 to open and close water. The nozzle 6 consists of a water jet connection 7 and a hose fastening 8.

With this configuration, the desired amount of water can be adjusted while rotating the lever 5 in the forward and reverse directions.

As described above, the structure of the bathroom valve device 1 of FIG. 1 may be the most general one, but the conventional valve device 1 for the bathroom has a problem in that its functionality is so simple.

For example, if water is difficult to adjust or leaks occur, the parts that perform their functions must be replaced. The conventional bathroom valve device 1 as shown in FIG. 1 is difficult to disassemble and replace or to easily replace parts. Therefore, the whole must be replaced. Accordingly, in view of the high cost of loss, there is a need for a new concept of a valve device for a bathroom that is not known.

Valve apparatus 100 for a bathroom according to the present embodiment that can provide such an effect is the body unit 110, the head unit 120, the coupling reinforcement ring 130, the flow path opening and closing member 140, reinforcement support 150 ), A shaft unit 160, a lever unit 170, a fastening screw 180, and a transparent cover 190.

As will be described in detail later, the head unit 120, the coupling reinforcement ring 130, the flow path opening and closing member 140, the reinforcing support 150, the shaft unit 160, the lever unit 170 based on the main body unit 110 , The fastening screw 180 and the transparent cover 190 are all removable. Thus, replacement or maintenance of parts can be convenient.

In particular, due to wear due to frequent operation can be easily replaced the exchange opening and closing member 140 of the fast replacement cycle, so that even when the parts can be replaced the loss (loss) to replace the entire valve device 100 for the bathroom Can reduce the occurrence.

The main unit 110 is connected to the faucet of the installation wall as a part constituting the main skeleton in the valve device 100 for the bathroom according to the present embodiment. The body unit 110 may be made of the same material.

The main body unit 110 includes a device body 112 having a water flow path 111 through which water flows, a water blocking wall portion 113 formed at a central region within the device body 112, and a device body ( A faucet coupling part 114 provided at one end of the 112 and screwed to the faucet connection part of the mounting wall; a hose coupling part 115 provided at the other end of the device body 112 and having a hose coupled thereto; It may include a coupling neck portion 116 extending from the device body 112 in the region where the wall portion 113 is located.

When the double pressurization shielding projection 143 of the flow path opening and closing member 140 is pressed against the water blocking wall part 113 as shown in FIG. 2, the water flow path 111 in the water blocking wall part 113 is shielded. It is not discharged. Then, when the flow path opening and closing member 140 is spaced apart from the water blocking wall portion 113 by rotating the lever unit 170 as shown in FIG. The flow of water is formed from right to left in the figure of FIG.

The head unit 120 is a structure detachably coupled to the body unit 110. The head unit 120 is formed in the lower portion of the head body 121 and the head body 121 through which the inside is penetrated to be detachably attached to the neck portion 116 for coupling of the main body unit 110. Detachable coupling portion 122 to combine, and the upper portion of the head body 121, but is formed integrally on the inner wall of the head portion 123 and the head body 121 is formed to gradually decrease in cross-section toward the end portion It includes a shaft support 124, the first threaded portion 125 is formed on the inner surface.

In order to include a key hole 164 communicated with the key groove 154, and a screw hole 165 formed in the upper end of the shaft body 161.

Since the second threaded portion 162 is applied to the shaft unit 160 and the second threaded portion 162 is screwedly coupled to the first threaded portion 125 of the head unit 120, the rotational movement of the lever unit 170 is performed. The shaft unit 160 may be transmitted in the reciprocating motion. Accordingly, the flow path opening and closing member 140 may be operated as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3.

The lever unit 170 is a configuration for rotating the shaft unit 160. The lever unit 170 is recessed in an area where the fitting portion 171 fitted to the upper end of the shaft body 161, the communication hole 172 communicating with the screw hole 165, and the communication hole 172 are formed. A recess 173 is formed, and a coupling slit 174 disposed around the recess 173. Since the lever unit 170 is a replaceable structure, it may be replaced with a different color to provide an effect of the interior.

The fastening screw 180 is inserted into the communication hole 172 of the lever unit 170 to assemble the lever unit 170 and the shaft unit 160 to be fastened to the screw hole 165 of the shaft unit 160. Is fastened.

The transparent cover 190 has a fitting protrusion 191 fitted to the coupling slit 174 of the lever unit 170, and is disposed in the recess 173 to protect the fastening screw 180. .

As described above, the bathroom valve device 100 according to the present embodiment has a head unit 120, a coupling reinforcement ring 130, a flow path opening and closing member 140, and a reinforcing support member 150 based on the main body unit 110. Since the shaft unit 160, the lever unit 170, the fastening screw 180, and the transparent cover 190 are all removable, the parts may be easily replaced or maintained.

In particular, due to wear due to frequent operation, the exchange of the passage opening and closing member 140 with a quick replacement cycle may be easy, and accordingly, even though the parts may be replaced, a loss (loss) in which the entire bathroom valve device 100 needs to be replaced. Can reduce the occurrence.

According to this embodiment acting on the basis of the structure as described above, since the disassembly and assembly is easy, the replacement or maintenance of parts can be convenient, and the functionality can be greatly enhanced than before.
