以下、 この発明の一実施の形態について図 1〜図 6を参照して説明する。 図 1は、 この発明に係る便器用取付装置 1, 1 ' が用いられた便器 Aを示す。 便器 Aは、 床面 (図示せず) 上に固定ざれる便器本体 Bと、 この便器本体 Bの上 面後部に取付装置 1, I を介してそれぞれの後端部が上下方向へ回転可能に支 持された便座 C及ぴ便蓋 Dを有している。 Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 1 shows a toilet A in which the toilet mounting apparatus 1, 1 ′ according to the present invention is used. Toilet A has a toilet body B fixed on the floor (not shown), and a rear end portion of the toilet body B which is rotatable in the vertical direction via mounting devices 1 and I at the rear of the upper surface of the toilet body B. It has a supported toilet seat C and a toilet lid D.
図 1及び図 2に示すように、 取付装置 1 , I の装置本体 2, 2は、 後述する ようにして便器本体 Bの上面後部に左右方向に離れて配置固定されている。 装置 本体 2 , 2の互いに対向する側面には、 互いの軸線を一致させて水平方向に延び る支持孔 2 1, 2 1がそれぞれ形成されている。 各支持孔 2 1, 2 1には、 ヒン ジ装置 (ヒンジ手段) H, Hの一端部がそれぞれ回転不能に挿入されている。 ヒ ンジ装置 Hは、 次に述べる構造のものが採用されているが、 他の構造を有するヒ ンジ装置又は単なる軸体を用いてもよい。 As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the device main bodies 2 and 2 of the mounting devices 1 and I are arranged and fixed to the rear of the upper surface of the toilet body B in the left-right direction as described later. Support holes 21 and 21 extending in the horizontal direction are formed on the opposing side surfaces of the device main bodies 2 and 2 so that their axes are aligned with each other. One end of a hinge device (hinge means) H is inserted into each of the support holes 21 and 21 so as not to rotate. The hinge device H has the following structure, but a hinge device having another structure or a simple shaft may be used.
ヒンジ装置 Hは、 公知の構造を有しているので簡単に説明すると、 有底円筒状 をなすヒンジ本体 Iと、 このヒンジ本体 Iに基端部が回転可能に揷入され、 先端 部がヒンジ本体の開口部から外部に突出したヒンジ軸 Jとを有している。 ヒンジ 本体 Iは、 基端部 (底部側の端部) が装置本体 2の支持孔 2 1に回転不能に嵌合 されている。 各ヒンジ本体 I , Iの先端部は、 支持孔 2 1, 2 1から突出してお り、 便座 Cの後端部に互いの軸線を一致させて設けられた連結筒部 C 1, C 2に それぞれ回転可能に揷入されている。. これにより、 便座 Cが便器本体 Bに上下方 向へ回転可能に支持されている。 連結筒部 C 2には、 取付装置 1 ' に取り付けら れたヒンジ装置 Hのヒンジ軸 Jが回転不能に嵌合されている。 Since the hinge device H has a known structure, it will be briefly described that a hinge body I having a bottomed cylindrical shape, a base end portion is rotatably inserted into the hinge body I, and a distal end portion is hinged. And a hinge axis J protruding outside from the opening of the main body. The hinge main body I has a base end (an end on the bottom side) non-rotatably fitted into the support hole 21 of the apparatus main body 2. The tip of each hinge body I, I protrudes from the support hole 21, 21 and is connected to the connecting cylinder C1, C2 provided at the rear end of the toilet seat C with their axes aligned. Each is rotatably introduced. Thus, the toilet seat C is supported by the toilet body B so as to be able to rotate upward and downward. The hinge shaft J of the hinge device H attached to the attachment device 1 'is non-rotatably fitted to the connecting cylinder portion C2.
便蓋 Dの後端部には、 連結筒部 D l, D 2が互いの軸線を一致させて設けられ ている。 一方の連結筒部 (図 2において左側.の連結筒部) D 1には、 取付装置 1 に支持されたヒンジ装置 Hのヒンジ軸 Jが回転不能に嵌合されている。 他方の連 結筒部 D 2には、 便座 Cの連結筒部 C 2の一端部が回転可能に嵌合されている。 これにより、 便蓋 Dが便座 Cと同一の回転軸線を中心として便器本体 Bに上下方 向へ回転可能に取り付けられている。 At the rear end of the toilet lid D, connecting cylinders Dl and D2 are provided with their axes aligned. ing. A hinge shaft J of a hinge device H supported by the mounting device 1 is non-rotatably fitted to one of the connection cylinder portions (the connection cylinder portion on the left side in FIG. 2) D1. One end of the connecting tubular portion C2 of the toilet seat C is rotatably fitted to the other connecting tubular portion D2. Thus, the toilet lid D is attached to the toilet body B so as to be rotatable upward and downward about the same rotation axis as the toilet seat C.
ヒンジ本体 Iの内部には、 ダンパ機構及びコイルばね等からなる回転付勢手段 Inside the hinge body I, there is provided a rotation urging means including a damper mechanism and a coil spring.
(いずれも図示せず) が設けられている。 ダンパ機構は、 便座 C又は便蓋 Dが開 位置 (図 1に示す閉位置から上方へ 1 1 0 ° 程度回転した位置) 側から閉位置側 へ回転するのに伴ってヒンジ軸が一方向 (便座 C及ぴ便蓋 Dの回転方向と同一の 方向) へ回転するときに、 ヒンジ軸の回転速度を低速に規制する。 したがって、 便座 C及ぴ便蓋 Dは、 閉回転する際には低速で回転する。 ダンパ機構は、 ヒンジ 軸が他方向へ回転するときにはその高速回転を許容する。 したがって、 便座 C及 び便蓋 Dは、 開回動時には高速で回転することができる。 (Both not shown) are provided. When the toilet seat C or the toilet lid D rotates from the open position (the position about 110 ° upward from the closed position shown in Fig. 1) to the closed position, the hinge shaft moves in one direction ( When rotating the toilet seat C and the toilet lid D in the same direction), restrict the rotation speed of the hinge shaft to a low speed. Therefore, the toilet seat C and the toilet lid D rotate at a low speed when closing and rotating. The damper mechanism allows high-speed rotation when the hinge shaft rotates in the other direction. Therefore, the toilet seat C and the toilet lid D can rotate at a high speed during the opening rotation.
—方のヒンジ装置 Hのヒンジ本体 Iに内蔵された回転付勢手段は、 便座 Cをヒ ンジ軸: [を介して上方へ付勢している。 回転付勢手段の付勢力は、 便座 Cが閉位 置から所定の角度だけ回転する間、 例えば閉位置から 7 0 ° 〜8 0 ° だけ回転す る間は便座 Cの自重による回転モーメントより小さく、 便座 Cがそれより大きく 回転すると便座 Cの自重による回転モーメントより大きくなるように設定されて いる。 したがって、 便座 Cは、 閉位置からの所定の角度範囲に位置しているとき には、 自由に回転し得る状態にすると、 自重により閉位置まで回転する。 その一 方、 便座 Cは、 所定の角度範囲を越えているときには、 回転付勢手段によって開 位置まで自動的に開回転させられる。 便蓋 Dは、 他方のヒンジ装置 Hに内蔵され た回転付勢手段により、 便座 Cと同様に挙動させられる。 The rotation urging means incorporated in the hinge body I of the hinge device H urges the toilet seat C upward through the hinge shaft: [. The urging force of the rotation urging means is smaller than the rotational moment due to the weight of the toilet seat C while the toilet seat C rotates by a predetermined angle from the closed position, for example, from 70 to 80 ° from the closed position. However, when the toilet seat C rotates more than that, the rotational moment due to the weight of the toilet seat C becomes larger. Therefore, when the toilet seat C is located in a predetermined angular range from the closed position and is in a state where it can freely rotate, the toilet seat C rotates to the closed position by its own weight. On the other hand, when the toilet seat C is out of the predetermined angle range, the toilet seat C is automatically opened and rotated to the open position by the rotation urging means. The toilet lid D is caused to behave similarly to the toilet seat C by the rotation urging means built in the other hinge device H.
次に、 便器用取付装置 1、 I について説明する。 ただし、 取付装置 1パ は、 取付装置 1に対して左右対称に構成されているので、 取付装置 1 ' については一 方の取付装置 1との関係において必要である構成のみを説明することとし、 取付 装置 1と同様な構成部分には同一符号を付してその説明を省略する。 Next, the toilet mounting device 1, I will be described. However, since the mounting device 1 is configured to be symmetrical with respect to the mounting device 1, only the configuration necessary for the mounting device 1 'in relation to one of the mounting devices 1 will be described. The same components as those of the mounting device 1 are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof will be omitted.
図 2〜図 5に示すように、 取付装置 1は、 上記装置本体 2の他に取付軸 3及ぴ ロック部材 (係合部材) 4を有している。 取付軸 3は、 図 5に示すように、 断面 円形の丸棒状をなしており、 取付軸 3の大部分を占める大径軸部 3 1と、 この大 径軸部 3 1の一端面に一体に連設された小径軸部 3 2と、 この小径軸部 3 2の先 端部外周面に一体に形成された環状の当接部 3 3とを有している。大径軸部 3 1、 小径軸部 3 2及ぴ当接部 3 3は、 互いの軸線を一致させて形成されている。 大径 軸部 3 1と当接部 3 3とは、 同一外径を有している。 当接部 3 3の小径軸部 3 2 側 (下側) を向く下面 3 3 aは、 取付軸 3の軸線と直交する平面とされている。 図 2に示すように、 取付軸 3は、 その軸線を上下方向に向けて便器本体 Bの上 面の後端部左側に配置されている。 取付装置 の取付軸 3は、 取付装置 1の取 付軸 3に対し、 前後方向には同一位置に、 左右方向には図 2の右方向に離れて配 置されている。 取付軸 3の大径軸部 3 1の基端部 ' (下端部) は、 便器本体 Bに埋 設固定されている。 取付軸 3は、 便器本体 Bに形成された貫通孔に揷脱可能に挿 通した後、 貫通孔から下方に突出した下端部にナツトを螺合させて締め付けるこ とにより、 便器本体 Bに着脱可能に取り付けるようにしてもよい。 また、 取付軸 3は、 便器本体 Bの後部上面に取り付けることなく、 後部側面に取り付けてもよ レ、。ただし、取付軸 3を便器本体 Bのいずれの箇所に取り付ける場合であっても、 ヒンジ装置 Hが挿入される装置本体 2、 2の支持孔 2 1, 2 1については、 便座 C及び便蓋 Dを上下方向へ回動させるために、 互いの軸線を一致させて水平に形 成する。 As shown in FIGS. 2 to 5, the mounting device 1 has a mounting shaft 3 and a lock member (engaging member) 4 in addition to the device main body 2. The mounting shaft 3 has a cross section as shown in Fig. 5. A large-diameter shaft 31 occupying a large part of the mounting shaft 3 and a small-diameter shaft 3 2 integrally connected to one end surface of the large-diameter shaft 31 The small diameter shaft portion 32 has an annular contact portion 33 integrally formed on the outer peripheral surface of the front end portion. The large-diameter shaft portion 31, the small-diameter shaft portion 32, and the contact portion 33 are formed so that their axes are aligned with each other. The large-diameter shaft portion 31 and the contact portion 33 have the same outer diameter. The lower surface 33 a facing the small-diameter shaft portion 32 side (lower side) of the contact portion 33 is a plane orthogonal to the axis of the mounting shaft 3. As shown in FIG. 2, the mounting shaft 3 is arranged on the left side of the rear end of the upper surface of the toilet body B with its axis line extending vertically. The mounting shaft 3 of the mounting device is disposed at the same position in the front-rear direction with respect to the mounting shaft 3 of the mounting device 1, and is separated in the left-right direction to the right in FIG. The base end ′ (lower end) of the large-diameter shaft portion 31 of the mounting shaft 3 is embedded and fixed in the toilet body B. The mounting shaft 3 is detachably inserted into the through-hole formed in the toilet body B, and is attached to and detached from the toilet body B by screwing a nut to the lower end protruding downward from the through-hole and tightening. You may make it attach as possible. Also, the mounting shaft 3 may be attached to the rear side surface without being attached to the rear upper surface of the toilet body B. However, regardless of where the mounting shaft 3 is attached to the toilet body B, the support holes 21 and 21 of the device bodies 2 and 2 into which the hinge device H is inserted are provided with the toilet seat C and the toilet lid D. In order to rotate vertically, they are formed horizontally with their axes aligned.
装置本体 2は、 図 2及ぴ図 5に示すように、 便器本体 Bの水平面状をなす上面 に载置されている。 装置本体 2には、 その下面から上面までを上下に貫通する取 付孔 2 2が形成されている。 この取付孔 2 2には、 その下端開口部から取付軸 3 の当接部 3 3及び小径軸部 3 2が順次揷通され、大径軸部 3 1が嵌合されている。 これにより、 装置本体 2が水平方向へ移動不能になっている。 しかも、 装置本体 2 , 2は、 それぞれに便座 C及ぴ便蓋 Dがヒンジ装置 H, Hを介して連結される ことにより、 取付軸 3を中心とする回転が阻止されている。 取付孔 2 2が開口す る装置本体 2の上端面は、 水平面になっており、 大径軸部 3 1の上端面と同一平 面上に位置するか、 大径軸部 3 1の上端面より若干上側に位置している。 したが つて、 小径軸部 3 2及び当接部 3 3だけが装置本体 2の上面から上方へ突出して いる。 強度的に許されるならば、 当接部 3 3を除き取付軸 3全体を小径軸部 3 2 としてもよい。 As shown in FIGS. 2 and 5, the apparatus main body 2 is disposed on the upper surface of the toilet body B which is in a horizontal plane. The device main body 2 is formed with a mounting hole 22 penetrating vertically from the lower surface to the upper surface. A contact portion 33 of the mounting shaft 3 and a small-diameter shaft portion 32 are sequentially passed through the mounting hole 22 from its lower end opening, and the large-diameter shaft portion 31 is fitted. As a result, the apparatus main body 2 cannot be moved in the horizontal direction. In addition, the device bodies 2, 2 are prevented from rotating about the mounting shaft 3 by connecting the toilet seat C and the toilet lid D via the hinge devices H, H, respectively. The upper end surface of the device body 2 where the mounting holes 22 are open is a horizontal plane, and is located on the same plane as the upper end surface of the large-diameter shaft portion 31 or the upper end surface of the large-diameter shaft portion 31 It is located slightly above. Therefore, only the small-diameter shaft portion 32 and the contact portion 33 protrude upward from the upper surface of the apparatus main body 2. If the strength allows, the entire mounting shaft 3 except for the contact part 3 3 is the small diameter shaft part 3 2 It may be.
図 3〜図 5に示すように、 装置本体 2の上面には、 環状のガイド部 2 3が形成 されている。 このガイド部 2 3は、 その軸線 (ロック部材 4の回転軸線) Lを上 下方向に向けて形成されている。 したがって、 ガイド部 2 3の軸線 Lは、 取付孔 2 2の軸線と平行になっている。 ガイド部 2 3は、 その軸線 Lが取付孔 2 2の軸 線に対して取付孔 2 2の半径とほぼ等しい距離だけ離れるように配置されている。 しかも、 ガイド部 2 3は、 それによつて囲まれる範囲内に取付孔 2 2が開口する ように、 その内径が定められている。 ガイド部 2 3によって囲まれる装置本体 2 の上面 (以下、 単に上面という。 ) 2 aは、 軸線 Lと直交する平面になっている。 したがって、 上面 2 aは、 これと対向する当接部 3 3の下面 3 3 aと平行になつ ている。 ガイド部 2 3には、 その周方向に延びる切欠き部 2 3 aが形成されてい る。 切欠き部 2 3 aは、 軸線 L及ぴ取付軸 3の軸線と直交する線が取付軸 3側に おいてガイド部 2 3と交差する箇所からガイド部 2 3の正逆両周方向へほぼ等距 離だけ延びている。 換言すれば、 軸線 L及び取付軸 3の軸線と直交する線が取付 軸 3側においてガイド部 2 3と交差する箇所が、 切欠き部 2 3 aの周方向におけ る中央になっている。 ガイド部 2 3の周方向における切欠き部 2 3 aの長さは、 ガイド部 2 3の半周より短く設定されている。 As shown in FIGS. 3 to 5, an annular guide portion 23 is formed on the upper surface of the device main body 2. The guide portion 23 is formed with its axis (the rotation axis of the lock member 4) L directed upward and downward. Therefore, the axis L of the guide portion 23 is parallel to the axis of the mounting hole 22. The guide portion 23 is disposed such that its axis L is separated from the axis of the mounting hole 22 by a distance substantially equal to the radius of the mounting hole 22. Moreover, the inner diameter of the guide portion 23 is determined so that the mounting hole 22 is opened in a range surrounded by the guide portion 23. The upper surface (hereinafter simply referred to as the upper surface) 2 a of the device main body 2 surrounded by the guide portion 23 is a plane orthogonal to the axis L. Therefore, the upper surface 2a is parallel to the lower surface 33a of the contact portion 33 facing the upper surface 2a. The guide portion 23 has a notch portion 23 a extending in the circumferential direction. The notch portion 23a is located approximately in the forward and reverse circumferential directions of the guide portion 23 from the point where the line perpendicular to the axis L and the axis of the mounting shaft 3 intersects the guide portion 23 on the mounting shaft 3 side. It extends by an equal distance. In other words, the point where the line perpendicular to the axis L and the axis of the mounting shaft 3 intersects the guide portion 23 on the mounting shaft 3 side is the center in the circumferential direction of the notch portion 23a. The length of the notch portion 23 a in the circumferential direction of the guide portion 23 is set shorter than half the circumference of the guide portion 23.
図 3〜図 5に示すように、 上記ロック部材 4は、 円板部 4 1を有している。 こ の円板部 4 1は、 ガイド部 2 3の高さとほぼ同一の厚さと、 ガイド部 2 3の内径 とほぼ同一の外径とを有している。 そして、 ガイド部 2 3に回転可能に挿入され ている。 円板部 4 1の外周面には、操作杆 4 2が設けられている。操作杆 4 2は、 切欠き部 2 3 aを通ってガイド部 2 3から外部に突出している。 ガイド部 2 3か ら突出した操作杆 4 2の先端部を手で持ってガイド部 2 3の周方向へ移動させる ことにより、 ロック部材 4をガイド部 2 3の軸線 Lを中心として回転させること ができる。 As shown in FIGS. 3 to 5, the lock member 4 has a disk portion 41. The disk portion 41 has a thickness substantially equal to the height of the guide portion 23, and an outer diameter substantially equal to the inner diameter of the guide portion 23. And it is rotatably inserted in the guide part 23. An operating rod 42 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the disk portion 41. The operating rod 42 projects outside from the guide part 23 through the notch part 23a. The lock member 4 is rotated about the axis L of the guide portion 23 by holding the tip of the operating rod 42 protruding from the guide portion 23 and moving it in the circumferential direction of the guide portion 23 by hand. Can be.
円板部 4 1には、その下面から上面まで貫 する貫通孔 4 3が形成されている。 この貫通孔 4 3は、 軸線 Lを中心とする円周上を周方向に延ぴている。 貫通孔 4 3の一端部には、 大径孔部 4 3 aが形成されている。 この大径孔部 4 3 aは、 当 接部 3 3の外径と同一か若干大きい内径を有しており、 当接部 3 3が揷通可能で ある。 貫通孔 4 3の他端部は、 大径孔部 4 3 aから軸線 Lを中心として周方向に 延びる長孔部 4 3 bになっている。 この長孔部 4 3 bの幅 (長孔部 4 3 bの内周 側の側面と外周側の側面との間隔) は、 小径軸部 3 '2の外径とほぼ同一か若干大 きい寸法に設定されている。 したがって、 小径軸部 3 2は、 長孔部 4 3 b内を周 方向へ移動可能であるが、 当接部 3 3は揷通不能になっている。 長孔部 4 3 の 先端部 (大径孔部 4 3 a側と逆側の端部) には、 小径軸部 3 2の半径とほぼ同一 の半径を有する半円部 4 3 cが形成されている。 この半円部 4 3 cの内周面に小 径軸部 3 2が突き当たることにより、 長孔部 4 3 b側から大径孔部 4 3 a側への 口ック部材 4の回転が阻止されている。 このときのロック部材 4の位置がロック 位置である。 逆に、 大径孔部 4 3 aの内周面に当接部 3 3が突き当たることによ り、 大径孔部 4 3 a側から長孔部 4 3 b側へのロック部材 4の回転が阻止されて いる。 このときのロック部材 4の位置、 つまり当接部 3 3が大径孔部 4 3 aに入 り込んだときのロック.部材 4の位置が解除位置である。 The disk portion 41 is formed with a through hole 43 penetrating from the lower surface to the upper surface. The through hole 43 extends in the circumferential direction on the circumference around the axis L. At one end of the through hole 43, a large diameter hole 43a is formed. The large-diameter hole portion 43a has an inner diameter that is the same as or slightly larger than the outer diameter of the contact portion 33, so that the contact portion 33 can pass through. is there. The other end of the through hole 43 is a long hole 43 b extending in the circumferential direction around the axis L from the large diameter hole 43 a. The width of the long hole 43b (the distance between the inner peripheral side surface and the outer peripheral side surface of the long hole 43b) is almost the same as or slightly larger than the outer diameter of the small diameter shaft portion 3'2. Is set to Therefore, the small-diameter shaft portion 32 can move in the circumferential direction in the long hole portion 43b, but the contact portion 33 is not penetrable. A semicircular portion 4 c having a radius substantially equal to the radius of the small-diameter shaft portion 32 is formed at the tip of the long hole portion 43 (the end opposite to the large-diameter hole portion 43 a side). ing. The small-diameter shaft portion 32 abuts against the inner peripheral surface of the semicircular portion 43c, thereby preventing the rotation of the hook member 4 from the long hole portion 43b to the large diameter hole 43a side. Have been. The position of the lock member 4 at this time is the lock position. Conversely, when the contact portion 33 abuts on the inner peripheral surface of the large-diameter hole 43 a, the lock member 4 rotates from the large-diameter hole 43 a to the long hole 43 b. Are blocked. The position of the lock member 4 at this time, that is, the position of the lock member 4 when the contact portion 33 enters the large-diameter hole portion 43a is the release position.
円板部 4 1の上面には、収容凹部 4 4が形成されている。 この収容凹部 4 4は、 貫通孔 4 3と同一の円周上を周方向に延びている。 収容凹部 4 4の幅 (収容凹部 4 4の外周側の側面と内周側の側面との間隔) は、 大径孔部 4 3 aの内径と同一 に設定されている。 収容凹部 4 4の周方向の長さは、 貫通孔 4 3の長さと同一に 設定されている。 すなわち、 収容凹部 4 4の両端部には、 半円部 4 4 a , 4 4 b が形成されている。 一方の半円部 4 4 aの中心は、 貫通孔 4 3の大径孔部 4 3 a の中心と一致させられている。 他方の半円部 4 4 bの中心は、 貫通孔 4 3の半円 部 4 3 cの中心と一致させられている。 これにより、 収容凹部 4 4の周方向の長 さ (半円部 4 4 a, 4 4 bの各中心間の周方向長さ) ヽ 貫通孔 4 3の周方向の 長さ (大径孔部 4 3 aと半円部 4 3 cとの各中心間の周方向長さ) と同一になつ ている。 An accommodation recess 44 is formed on the upper surface of the disk portion 41. The accommodation recess 44 extends in the circumferential direction on the same circumference as the through hole 43. The width of the housing recess 44 (the distance between the outer circumferential side surface and the inner circumferential side surface of the housing recess 44) is set to be the same as the inner diameter of the large-diameter hole 43a. The length of the accommodation recess 44 in the circumferential direction is set to be the same as the length of the through hole 43. That is, semicircular portions 44 a and 44 b are formed at both ends of the housing concave portion 44. The center of one semicircular portion 44 a is aligned with the center of the large-diameter hole 43 a of the through hole 43. The center of the other semicircular portion 44 b is aligned with the center of the semicircular portion 43 c of the through hole 43. Accordingly, the circumferential length of the housing recess 44 (the circumferential length between the centers of the semicircular portions 44a and 44b) 周 the circumferential length of the through hole 43 (the large-diameter hole portion) Circumferential length between the centers of 43 a and semicircular portion 43 c).
収容凹部 4 4が上記のように構成された結果、収容凹部 4 4の半円部 4 4 aは、 大径孔部 4 3 aのうちの長孔部 4 3 b側と逆側の半円部分と一致することになり、 大径孔部 4 3 aの一部を構成する。 したがって、 取付軸 3の当接部 3 3を貫通孔 4 3の大径孔部 4 3 aにその下端開口部から挿入すると、 当接部 3 3は収容凹部 4 4の半円部 4 4 a側の端部に入り込む。 上記のように、 当接部 3 3が大径孔部 4 3 aに入り込んだときがロック部材 4の解除位置になっており、 ロック部材 4 を解除位置に位置させると、 取付軸 3の当接部 3 3が貫通孔 4 3 (の大径孔部 4 3 a ) 及び収容凹部 4 4に対して揷脱可能になる。 As a result of the housing recess 44 being configured as described above, the semicircular portion 4 4a of the housing recess 44 is a semicircle opposite to the long hole 4 3b side of the large diameter hole 43a. This corresponds to the part, and constitutes a part of the large diameter hole 43a. Therefore, when the contact portion 3 3 of the mounting shaft 3 is inserted into the large-diameter hole portion 4 3 a of the through hole 4 3 from its lower end opening, the contact portion 33 becomes a semicircular portion 4 4 a of the accommodation concave portion 4 4. Into the side edge. As described above, the contact part 3 3 is a large-diameter hole When the lock member 4 is in the release position when the lock member 4 is at the release position when the lock member 4 is in the release position, the contact portion 3 3 of the mounting shaft 3 4 3 a) and the accommodation recess 44 can be removed.
半円部 4 4 aは、 大径孔部 4 3 aの一部をなすので底面を有していないが、 収 容 M部 4 4のうち半円部 4 4 aを除く他の部分は、 貫通孔 4 3の周囲に沿って延 びる底面 4 5を有している。 したがって、 ロック部材 4を半円部 4 4 b側から半 円部 4 4 a側へ向う方向へ回転させて、 取付軸 3を大径孔部 4 3 ' aから長孔部 4 3 bに相対移動させると、 当接部 3 3が底面 4 5と対向する。 この結果、 装置本 体 2を上方へ移動させてその取付孔 2 2から取付軸 3を下方へ抜き出そうとする と、 当接部 3 3が底面 4 5に突き当たる。 それにより、 装置本体 2が取付軸 3に 対して脱出不能になっている。 The semicircular portion 44a does not have a bottom surface because it forms a part of the large-diameter hole portion 43a, but the other portions of the storage M portion 404 except for the semicircular portion 44a are: It has a bottom surface 45 extending along the periphery of the through hole 43. Therefore, the lock member 4 is rotated in the direction from the semicircular portion 44b to the semicircular portion 44a, so that the mounting shaft 3 is moved from the large-diameter hole 43'a to the long hole 43b. When moved, the contact portion 33 faces the bottom surface 45. As a result, when the device body 2 is moved upward and the mounting shaft 3 is to be pulled out from the mounting hole 22, the contact portion 33 abuts against the bottom surface 45. As a result, the device main body 2 cannot escape from the mounting shaft 3.
底面 4 5は、 傾斜面 4 5 aと平坦面 (押圧固定面) 4 5 bとから構成されてい る。 傾斜面 4 5 aは、 収容凹部 4 4の外側の側面と半円部 4 4 aの内周面との接 点部から収容凹部 4 4の外側の側面に沿って半円部 4 4 bの若干手前の位置まで 延ぴている。 底面 4 5のうち傾斜面 4 5 a以外の部分が平坦面 4 5 bになってい る。 したがって、 平坦面 4 5 aは、 半円部 4 3 c全体に沿って延びるとともに半 円部 4 3 cから傾斜面 4 5 aまでの間の; fc孔部 4 3 bに沿って延ぴている。 この 結果、 平坦面 4 5 aの長さは、 半円部 4 3 cに対応する 1 / 2円弧より長くなつ ている。 The bottom surface 45 is composed of an inclined surface 45a and a flat surface (press fixing surface) 45b. The inclined surface 45a extends from the contact point between the outer side surface of the housing recess 44 and the inner peripheral surface of the semicircular portion 44a along the outer side surface of the housing recess 44 to the semicircular portion 44b. It extends slightly to the front. The portion of the bottom surface 45 other than the inclined surface 45a is a flat surface 45b. Therefore, the flat surface 45a extends along the entire semicircular portion 43c and extends from the semicircular portion 43c to the inclined surface 45a; and extends along the fc hole 43b. I have. As a result, the length of the flat surface 45a is longer than the half arc corresponding to the semicircular portion 43c.
ガイド部 2 3内における装置本体 2の上面 2 aから傾斜面 4 5 aまでの高さは、 収容凹部 4 4の大径孔部 4 3 a側の一端部において最も低く、 そこから平坦面 4 The height from the upper surface 2 a of the apparatus body 2 to the inclined surface 45 a in the guide portion 23 is the lowest at one end of the large-diameter hole 43 a side of the accommodation recess 44, and the flat surface 4 from there.
5 bまで漸次高くなつている。 傾斜面 4 5 aの一端部における高さ (最も低い高 さ) は、 上面 2 aから当接部 3 3の下面 3 3 aまでの距離より低く設定されてい る。 したがって、 大径孔部 4 3 aに当接部 3 3を挿入した状態でロック部材 4を 萆通孔 4 3の長孔部 4 3 b側から大径孔部 4 3 a側へ回転移動させると、 小径軸 部 3 2が大径孔部 4 3 aから長孔部 4 3 b内に入り込むとともに、 当接部 3 3力 収容凹部 4 4の長孔部 4 3 bに対応する部分内に入り込む。 この状態では、 装置 本体 2を上方へ移動させてその取付孔 2 1から取付軸 3を下方へ抜き出そうとす ると、 当接部 3 3が収容凹部 2 3の底面 4 5に突き当たる。 したがって、 装置本 体 2を便器本体 Bから取り外すことができなくなる。 . It is gradually increasing up to 5 b. The height (the lowest height) at one end of the inclined surface 45a is set lower than the distance from the upper surface 2a to the lower surface 33a of the contact portion 33. Therefore, the lock member 4 is rotationally moved from the long hole 4 3 b side of the through hole 4 3 to the large diameter hole 4 3 a side with the contact portion 3 3 inserted in the large diameter hole 4 3 a. The small-diameter shaft portion 32 enters the long-hole portion 4 3b from the large-diameter hole portion 43a, and the contact portion 33 force-recessing recess 44 corresponds to the long-hole portion 43b. Get in. In this state, when the device main body 2 is moved upward and the mounting shaft 3 is to be pulled out from the mounting hole 21, the contact portion 33 abuts against the bottom surface 45 of the housing recess 23. Therefore, the equipment book Body 2 cannot be removed from toilet bowl B. .
図 5及び図 6に示すように、 上面 2 aからの平坦面 4 5 bまでの高さは、 上面 As shown in Figs. 5 and 6, the height from the top surface 2a to the flat surface 45b is
2 aと当接部 3 3の下面 3 3 aとの間の距離と同一か僅かに大きく設定されてい る。 したがって、 平坦面 4 5 bを当接部 3 3の下面に接触させると、 ロック部材 4が装置本体 2の上面 2 aと当接部 3 3の下面 3 3 aとによって挟持固定される。 特に、小径軸部 3 2が貫通孔 4 3の半円部 4 3 cの内周面に突き当たった位置(口 ック位置) にロック部材 4を回転させたときには、 当接部 3 3の下面 3 3 aのう ち半周以上 (2 / 3円程度) が平坦面 4 5 bに突き当たるので、 当接部 3 3が平 坦面 4 5 bに突き当たつだ状態が安定して維持される。 よって、 ロック部材 4は ロック位置に安定して維持されることになり、 装置本体 2が取付軸 3から上方へ 抜け出ることが確実に阻止される。 また、 ロック部材 4が当接部 3 3の下面 3 3 aと装置本体 2の上面 2 aとによって挟持固定ざれる結果、 装置本体 2は当接部It is set to be the same as or slightly larger than the distance between 2a and the lower surface 33a of the contact portion 33. Therefore, when the flat surface 45 b is brought into contact with the lower surface of the contact portion 33, the lock member 4 is sandwiched and fixed between the upper surface 2 a of the device body 2 and the lower surface 33 a of the contact portion 33. In particular, when the lock member 4 is rotated to a position where the small-diameter shaft portion 32 abuts on the inner peripheral surface of the semicircular portion 4 3c of the through hole 43 (ie, a hook position), the lower surface of the contact portion 33 Since more than half of 33a (about 2/3 circle) abuts the flat surface 45b, the state where the contact portion 33 abuts the flat surface 45b is stably maintained. . Therefore, the lock member 4 is stably maintained at the lock position, and the device main body 2 is reliably prevented from falling out of the mounting shaft 3 upward. In addition, as a result of the locking member 4 being pinched and fixed by the lower surface 3 3 a of the contact portion 33 and the upper surface 2 a of the device body 2, the device body 2 is
3 3によりロック部材 4を介して下方へ押圧され、 便器本体 Bの上面に押圧固定 される。 ロック部材 4の円板部 4 1の上面から平坦面 4 5 bまでの深さは、 当接 部 3 3の厚さより大きく設定されている。 したがって、 ロック部材 4がロック位 置に位置しているときにも、当接部 3 3全体が収容凹部 4 4内に入り込んでいる。 上記構成の取付装置 1 , を用いて便座 C及び便蓋 Dを便器本体 Bに取り付 ける場合には、 図 2に示すように、 まず取付装置 1、 1 ' の装置本体 2, 2に便 座 C及ぴ便蓋 Dを取り付ける。 この場合、 便座 Cと便蓋 Dとをヒンジ装置 H, H を介して互いに回転可能に違結した後、 各ヒンジ装置 H, Hに装置本体 2, 2を ' それぞれ取り付けてもよく、装置本体 2 , 2にヒンジ装置 H, Hを取り付けた後、 各ヒンジ装置 H, Hに便座 C及び便蓋 Dを取り付けてもよい。 It is pressed downward by the lock member 4 via the lock member 4, and is pressed and fixed to the upper surface of the toilet body B. The depth from the upper surface of the disk portion 41 of the lock member 4 to the flat surface 45 b is set to be greater than the thickness of the contact portion 33. Therefore, even when the lock member 4 is located at the lock position, the entire contact portion 33 enters into the housing recess 44. When attaching the toilet seat C and the toilet lid D to the toilet body B using the mounting device 1 having the above configuration, first, as shown in FIG. Attach seat C and toilet lid D. In this case, after the toilet seat C and the toilet lid D are rotatably connected to each other via the hinge devices H, H, the device bodies 2, 2 may be attached to the hinge devices H, H, respectively. After the hinge devices H, H are attached to 2, 2, the toilet seat C and the toilet lid D may be attached to each hinge device H, H.
次に、 図 3に示すように、 装置本体 2 , 2の各取付孔 2 2, 2 2にその下端開 口部から取付軸 3, 3を挿入する。 その後、 取付孔 2 2の軸線に大径孔部 4 3 a の軸線を一致させた状態でロック部材 4をガイド部 2 3内にその上方から挿入す る。 すると、 取付軸 3の当接部 3 3が大径孔部 4 3 a内に入り込む。 この手順に 代え、 取付孔 2 2の軸線に大径孔部 4 3 aの軸線を一致させた状態でロック部材 4をガイド部 2 3に予め挿入しておいてもよい。 換言すれば、 ロック部材 4を予 め解除位置に位置させておいてもよい。 そのようすれば、 取付軸 3を取付孔 2 2 から大径孔部 4 3 aに続けて揷入することができるからである。 なお、 取付孔 2 2と大径孔部 4 3 aとの軸線を一致させてロック部材 4を容易に解除位置に位置 させるために、 ロック部材 4が解除位置に位置したときには、 操作杆 4 2が切欠 き部 2 3 aの一方の側面 (図 3及ぴ図 4において下側の側面) 2 3 bに突き当た るようにしておくのが望ましい。 Next, as shown in Fig. 3, the mounting shafts 3, 3 are inserted into the mounting holes 22, 22, of the device main bodies 2, 2, from the lower end opening. Thereafter, the locking member 4 is inserted into the guide portion 23 from above with the axis of the large-diameter hole portion 43 a aligned with the axis of the mounting hole 22. Then, the contact portion 33 of the mounting shaft 3 enters into the large-diameter hole portion 43a. Instead of this procedure, the lock member 4 may be inserted into the guide portion 23 in advance with the axis of the large-diameter hole portion 43 a aligned with the axis of the mounting hole 22. In other words, the lock member 4 may be previously positioned at the release position. In this case, the mounting shaft 3 is attached to the mounting hole 2 2 This is because the hole can be continuously inserted into the large-diameter hole 43a. When the lock member 4 is located at the release position, the operating rod 4 2 is moved in order to easily position the lock member 4 at the release position by aligning the axes of the mounting hole 22 and the large-diameter hole 43 a. However, it is desirable that the side of the notch 23 a be in contact with one side (the lower side in FIGS. 3 and 4) of the notch 23 a.
次に、 口ック部材 4を収容凹部 4 4の半円部 4 4 b側から半円部 4 4 a側へ向 う方向 (図 3の矢印方向) へ回転させる。 そして、 図 4に示すように、 ロック部 材 4を小径軸部 3 2が半円部 4 4 bの内周面に突き当たるロック位置まで回転さ せる。 すると、 当接部 3 3の下面 3 3 aが平坦面 4 5 bに押圧接蝕する。 このと き、 平坦面 4 5 bの手前に傾斜面 4 5 aが形成されているので、 下面 4 4 aは、 平坦面 4 5 bに円滑に押圧接触する。 当接部 3 3が平坦面 4 5 bに押圧接触する と、 装置本体 2の上方への移動が当接部 3 3によりロック部材 4を介して阻止さ れるとともに、 装置本体 2が便器本体 Bの上面に押圧固定される。 この結果、 便 座 C及び便蓋 Dが取付装置 1, 1 ' を介して便器本体 Bに回転可能に取り付けら れる。 しかも、 ロック部材 4は、 当接部 3 3と装置本体 2とによって挟持固定さ れるので、 ロック位置に安定して維持され、 解除位置側へ移動することがない。 よって、 装置本体 2も便器本体 Bに安定して固定される。 Next, the hook member 4 is rotated in the direction from the semicircular portion 44b of the housing recess 44 to the semicircular portion 44a (the direction of the arrow in FIG. 3). Then, as shown in FIG. 4, the lock member 4 is rotated to a lock position where the small-diameter shaft portion 32 abuts against the inner peripheral surface of the semicircular portion 44b. Then, the lower surface 33a of the contact portion 33 presses and contacts the flat surface 45b. At this time, since the inclined surface 45a is formed in front of the flat surface 45b, the lower surface 44a smoothly presses and contacts the flat surface 45b. When the contact portion 33 presses against the flat surface 45b, the upward movement of the device body 2 is prevented by the contact portion 33 via the lock member 4, and the device body 2 is moved to the toilet body B. Is pressed and fixed on the upper surface. As a result, the toilet seat C and the toilet lid D are rotatably mounted on the toilet body B via the mounting devices 1 and 1 '. In addition, since the lock member 4 is sandwiched and fixed between the contact portion 33 and the apparatus main body 2, the lock member 4 is stably maintained at the lock position and does not move to the release position side. Therefore, the device body 2 is also stably fixed to the toilet body B.
便座 C及ぴ便蓋 Dを便器本体 Bから取り外す場合には、 口ック部材 4を図 4に 示すロック位置から図 3に示す解除位置まで回転させる。 この場合、 当接部 3 3 が大径孔部 4 3 aの内周面 (半円部 4 4 aの内周面) に突き当たった位置が解除 位置であるから、 ロック部材 4を容易に解除位置に回動させることができる。 そ の後、 装置本体 2及び口ック部材 4を上方へ移動させて取付軸 3から抜き出す。 勿論、 ロック部材 4を取付軸 3から抜き出した後、 装置本体 2を取付軸 3から抜 き出すようにしてもよい。 装置本体 2を取付軸 3から抜き出すと、 装置本体 2と 共に便座 C及び便蓋 Dが便器本体 Bから取り外される。 In order to remove the toilet seat C and the toilet lid D from the toilet body B, rotate the flap member 4 from the lock position shown in FIG. 4 to the release position shown in FIG. In this case, the position where the contact portion 33 abuts on the inner peripheral surface of the large-diameter hole portion 43a (the inner peripheral surface of the semicircular portion 44a) is the release position, so that the lock member 4 is easily released. Position. After that, the apparatus main body 2 and the hook member 4 are moved upward and pulled out from the mounting shaft 3. Of course, after the lock member 4 is pulled out from the mounting shaft 3, the device body 2 may be pulled out from the mounting shaft 3. When the device body 2 is pulled out from the mounting shaft 3, the toilet seat C and the toilet lid D are removed from the toilet body B together with the device body 2.
上記のように、 この便器用取付装置 1においては、· 口ック部材 4を半周弱だけ 回転させるだけで装置本体 2を便器本体 Bに対して取り付け、 取り外すことがで き、 ねじ機構のようにナットを数回転〜十数回転させる必要がない。 よって、 装 置本体 2を便器本体 Bに対して容易に取り付け、 取り外すことができ、 ひいては 便座 C及び便蓋 Dの便器本体 Bに対する取付け、 取外しを容易に行うことができ る。 As described above, in the toilet mounting device 1, the device main body 2 can be attached to and detached from the toilet main body B only by rotating the opening member 4 by a little less than a half turn. It is not necessary to rotate the nut several times to several tens. Therefore, the device main body 2 can be easily attached to and detached from the toilet body B, and as a result, The toilet seat C and the toilet lid D can be easily attached to and removed from the toilet body B.
また、 取付装置 1が、 装置本体 2、 取付軸 3及ぴロック部材 4の三つの部品を 必須の構成とするだけあり、 レバーを用いた従来の取付装置に比して構成点数を 大幅に減らすことができる。 したがって、 製造費を低減することができる。 In addition, the mounting device 1 has only three essential components, the device main body 2, the mounting shaft 3 and the lock member 4, and the number of components is significantly reduced as compared with the conventional mounting device using a lever. be able to. Therefore, manufacturing costs can be reduced.
なお、 この発明は、 上記の実施の形態に限定されるものでなく、 その要旨を逸 脱しない範囲にぉレ、て適宜変更可能である。 It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be appropriately changed within a scope not departing from the gist of the present invention.
例えば、 上記の実施の形態においては、 当接部 3 3を小径軸部 3 2の全周にわ たって環状に形成しているが、 当接部 3 3が平坦面 4 5 b全体に接触した状態で も平坦面 4 5 bに対する当接部 3 3の接触部は、 当接部 3 3全体の 2 / 3程度で あるから、 当接部 3 3を環状に形成することなく、 平坦面 4 5 bに接触するのに 十分な長さ、例えば 2 / 3円程度の周方向長さを有するような形状にしてもよい。 また、 上記の実施の形態においては、 ロック部材 4を取付軸 3及び装置本体 2 に対して回転変位させているが、 口ック部材 4は装置本体 2の外面に沿って直線 変位させるようにしてもよい。 その場合には、 環状のガイド部 2 3に代え、 取付 軸 3を間にして互いに平行に延びる一対のガイド部を装置本体 2に形成するのが よい。 勿論、 ロック部材 4を直線変位させる場合には、 貫通孔 4 3及び収容凹部 4 4を、 円弧状に形成することなく、 直線状に形成する。 産業上の利用の可能性 For example, in the above embodiment, the contact portion 33 is formed in an annular shape over the entire circumference of the small-diameter shaft portion 32, but the contact portion 33 contacts the entire flat surface 45b. Even in this state, the contact portion of the contact portion 33 with the flat surface 4 5 b is about 2/3 of the entire contact portion 33, so that the flat portion 4 is not formed without forming the contact portion 33 in an annular shape. The shape may be such that it has a length sufficient to make contact with 5b, for example, a circumferential length of about 2/3 circle. Further, in the above embodiment, the lock member 4 is rotationally displaced with respect to the mounting shaft 3 and the apparatus main body 2, but the lock member 4 is linearly displaced along the outer surface of the apparatus main body 2. You may. In that case, it is preferable to form a pair of guide portions extending in parallel with each other with the mounting shaft 3 interposed therebetween, instead of the annular guide portion 23. Of course, when the lock member 4 is linearly displaced, the through-hole 43 and the accommodation concave portion 44 are formed not in an arc but in a straight line. Industrial potential
