The width of the notch 19 is slightly larger than the diameter of the lower part of the hot water supply pipe 1. Here, when the engaging portion 7 is engaged with the upper and lower ends of the hot water supply pipe 1, the elastic leg 6 constituting the engaging portion 7 is pressed against the outer peripheral surface of the hot water supply pipe 1 and rattles. The cover 4 can be attached to the hot water supply pipe 1 without using it, and the cover 4 can be attached by placing it so as to cover the hot water supply pipe 1 from the side, and a tool or a fastener is used. The cover 4 can be easily attached without any manual labor and one-touch operation. Sleeve cover portion 16a provided on one side surface of lower cover body 16
As shown in FIGS. 5 and 7, the adjusting portion 15 is housed and arranged therein. The operation of the adjusting screw 15a of the adjusting portion 15 is performed through a notch portion 18 provided in the sleeve cover portion 16a. Can be done.

A side cap 8 is attached to one side surface of the mixer tap body 3. This side cap 8 is shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 11, a main part is formed by integrally extending an extension portion 21 which is narrower than the disk portion 20 from a part of a peripheral edge of the disk portion 20. An extension piece 9 is integrally provided to project from the edge in a direction orthogonal to the edge. From the center of the disk portion 20, a connecting protrusion 22 is projected in a direction orthogonal to the disk portion 20, and the connecting protrusion 22 is inserted into a connecting recess formed in the side end surface of the mixer tap main body 3. By locking, the side cap 8 is attached to the end face of the mixer tap body 3. When the side cap 8 is attached to the end face of the mixer tap main body 3, the extension piece 9 of the side cap 8 is arranged so as to cover the surface of the hot water supply inflow portion 10 of the mixer tap main body 3 facing the hot water supply pipe 1. In this case, the portion of the mixing plug main body 3 where the temperature becomes high is surely covered with the side cap 8.

By installing the cover 4, the hot water supply pipe 1, which becomes hot by hot water supply, can be covered. By installing the side cap 8, the hot water supply pipe 1 can be provided.
Can cover the exposed surface of the mixer tap body 3 which becomes high in temperature with the inflow of high-temperature water through the cover 4. The cover 4 and the side cap 8 surely cover the high-temperature portion, and Alternatively, it is possible to prevent a burn even if touched by mistake when adjusting the hot water temperature. Also,
Since the cover 4 and the side cap 8 engage the engaging portion 7 with the hot water supply pipe 1 and insert and lock the connecting projection 22 into the connecting recess on the side end surface of the mixing tap main body 3, the cover 4 and the side cap 8 are ready-made. It can be easily attached to the mixer tap body 3 by retrofitting.
