Abstract

A water lock tap can be attached to a pedestal from above a washstand or the like. The water lock tap comprises a pedestal, which is secured to an attachment object such as a washstand, a pipe attachment member for attaching a water supply pipe to the bottom of the pedestal, and a neck, which is secured to the pedestal; the pedestal comprises a mesh structure for securing the neck to the outer periphery of the pedestal, and having a ring-like blade section which clips into an attachment hole, provided in the attachment object, and a cylindrical moving member which is suspended from the ring-like blade section and has a plurality of protruding members, which are pressed toward the outside when a cylindrical member having a screw notch in its outer periphery is screwed into a cylindrical space having a screw notch in its inner periphery, the cylindrical member having a slightly smaller diameter than the cylindrical space; the pipe attachment member comprises a screw notch section which functions as the cylindrical member, a flange section which connects to the screw notch section and is accommodated in the ring-like blade section in the pedestal, and a join section which is connected to the water supply pipe.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . A water lock tap comprising a pedestal, which is secured to an attachment object such as a washstand, a pipe attachment member for attaching a water supply pipe to the bottom of the pedestal, and a neck, which is secured to the pedestal; 
 the pedestal comprising a mesh structure for securing the neck to the outer periphery of the pedestal, and having a ring-like blade section which clips into an attachment hole, provided in the attachment object, and a cylindrical moving member which is suspended from the ring-like blade section and has a plurality of protruding members, which are pressed toward the outside when a cylindrical member having a screw notch in its outer periphery is screwed into a cylindrical space having a screw notch in its inner periphery, the cylindrical member having a slightly smaller diameter than the cylindrical space; and    the pipe attachment member comprising a screw notch section which functions as the cylindrical member, a flange section which connects to the screw notch section and is accommodated in the ring-like blade section in the pedestal, and a join section which is connected to the water supply pipe.    
     
     
         2 . The water lock tap as described in  claim 1 , the mesh structure comprising a screw groove for securing by screwing.  
     
     
         3 . The water lock tap as described in  claim 2 , the screw groove in the pedestal comprising a plurality of grooves of different widths, such that the neck meshes only when screwed in at a predetermined angle.  
     
     
         4 . The water lock tap as described in  claim 1 , the side faces of the protruding members of the pedestal being fan-shaped, supported with their primary sections as fulcrums so that they can sway freely, and arranged at equal intervals around the pedestal.  
     
     
         5 . The water lock tap as described in  claim 1 , the pipe attachment member having a hole for wrench at the center of the flange section.  
     
     
         6 . The water lock tap as described in  claim 1 , the pipe attachment member comprising a water-stop valve near an insertion section of the neck, the water-stop valve being opened by inserting the neck.  
     
     
         7 . A one-touch attachment water lock comprising a pedestal, which is secured to an attachment object such as a washstand, a pipe-connecting member for attaching a water supply pipe and supported by the pedestal, and a neck, which is secured to the pedestal; 
 a plurality of spiraled grooves for securing the neck being provided in the outer periphery of pedestal; and    a clawed member which meshes into the spiraled grooves being provided on the inner periphery of the base of the neck.    
     
     
         8 . The one-touch attachment water lock as described in  claim 7 , the clawed member having claws which are provided around the inner periphery of the base of the neck and mesh into the spiraled grooves in the pedestal, and a leg section which supports the claws.  
     
     
         9 . The one-touch attachment water lock as described in  claim 7 , the pedestal comprising 
 a ring-like blade section which clips into an attachment hole, provided in the attachment object; and    a cylindrical moving member which is suspended from the ring-like blade section and has a plurality of protruding members, which are pressed toward the outside when a cylindrical member having a screw notch in its outer periphery is screwed into a cylindrical space having a screw notch in its inner periphery, the cylindrical member having a slightly smaller diameter than the cylindrical space.    
     
     
         10 . The one-touch attachment water lock as described in  claim 7 , the screw groove in the pedestal comprising a plurality of grooves of different widths, such that the neck meshes only when screwed in at a predetermined angle.  
     
     
         11 . The one-touch attachment water lock as described in  claim 7 , the side faces of the protruding members of the pedestal being fan-shaped, supported with their primary sections as fulcrums so that they can sway freely, and arranged at equal intervals around the pedestal.  
     
     
         12 . The one-touch attachment water lock as described in  claim 7 , the pedestal containing a pipe-connecting member for attaching a water supply pipe at the center of the flange.
