Figure 6 As shown, the wear-resistant liner 60 is provided with two symmetrically arranged protruding feet 62, and the outer periphery of each protruding foot 62 is provided with the first rotating part. As required, the number of protruding feet 62 is not limited to this, and can be three or four. Correspondingly, the second rotating parts can also be set to two; or, can also be set to one in a circular arrangement to adapt to multiple first rotating parts. Figure 4As shown, the gasket body 61 is locked and fixed to the faucet body 50 by three screws 63, and the hollow part thereof corresponds to the assembly cavity 12. Figure 3 As shown, the gasket body 61 is located between the faucet body 50 and the bottom end of the handle base 70 .

[0027] In this embodiment, the first rotating portion is a circumferentially arranged arc-shaped groove 621 , and the second rotating portion is a circumferentially arranged arc-shaped protrusion 71 .

[0028] In this embodiment, the handle comprises a hand-held portion 90, a handle fixing portion 91, and a handle connecting portion 92 connecting the hand-held portion 90 and the handle fixing portion 91. The handle fixing portion 91 is fixedly connected to the outside of the valve stem 41 of the control valve core 40. The handle seat 70 is provided with a clearance groove 72 for making way for the handle connecting portion 92. The handle connecting portion 92 passes through the clearance groove 72 and then extends out of the handle seat 70. The hand-held portion 90 is located outside the handle seat 70. The cooperation between the handle connecting portion 92 and the clearance groove 72 can drive the handle seat 70 to rotate synchronously in the circumferential direction while the hand-held portion 90 rotates circumferentially; while the hand-held portion 90 rotates axially, the clearance groove 72 can make way for the axial movement of the handle connecting portion 92 to ensure the axial and circumferential bidirectional movement of the hand-held portion 90. Thus, the clearance groove 72 extends upward from the bottom end surface of the handle seat 70 to have a certain length, and the top end of the clearance groove 72 is arc-shaped.

The rotating gasket 1 is provided with two arc grooves 101 corresponding to the two clearance grooves 72, and the cylindrical section of each handle connecting portion 92 is located between one of the arc grooves 101 and the corresponding clearance groove 72. The circumferential rotation of the hand-held portion 90 drives the valve stem 41 of the control valve core 40 to rotate circumferentially, and at the same time, drives the handle seat 70 and the rotating gasket 1 to rotate circumferentially synchronously.

[0030] The touch screen control component includes a touch screen 100, a touch screen control circuit 110, and a solenoid valve 120. The purified water path passes through the water purifier 20 and the solenoid valve 120. The touch screen 100 is installed on the outer side of the faucet body. The touch screen control circuit 110 is installed in the faucet body and is electrically connected to the touch screen 100. The solenoid valve 120 is electrically connected to the touch screen control circuit 110 and the water purifier 20.

[0031] In this embodiment, the touch screen 100 is located outside the assembly cavity 12 and is coaxially arranged with the control valve core 40. Figure 2 As shown, the touch screen 100 is located outside the side convex part.

[0032] In this embodiment, the touch screen control circuit 110 and the solenoid valve 120 are connected through a touch screen wire 130. One end of the touch screen wire 130 passes through the pad body 61 and the assembly cavity 12 and is connected to the touch screen control circuit 110. The other end of the touch screen wire 130 is connected to the solenoid valve 120. An isolation platform 131 is provided on the periphery of the touch screen wire 130, and the isolation platform 131 rests on the pad body 61.

[0033] In this embodiment, a through groove 64 is provided on the inner periphery of the gasket body 61 and penetrates the gasket body 61 vertically, and the width of the isolation platform 131 is greater than the width of the through groove 64 .

[0034] In this embodiment, the inner side surface of the isolation platform 131 contacts the gland 80. Preferably, the inner side surface of the isolation platform 131 is an arc surface that matches the outer peripheral surface of the gland 80.

[0035] In this embodiment, a power connection head 132 is provided at one end of the touch screen wire 130, a partition 73 for isolating the assembly cavity 12 is provided in the handle seat 70, the touch screen control circuit 110 is fixedly connected to the partition 73, and the power connection head 132 passes through the partition 73 and is electrically connected to the touch screen control circuit 110.

[0036] In this embodiment, the length of the touch screen wire 130 between the power connection head 132 and the isolation platform 131 is greater than the circumferential rotation stroke of the handle base 70 .

[0037] In this embodiment, the display screen 30 is located below the assembly cavity 12 .

[0038] In this embodiment, the clean water circuit is connected by a clean water pipe 2, and part of the clean water pipe 2 is located in the middle of the tap water circuit. Figure 3As shown, a mixed water channel 51 is provided in the faucet body 50, and the cold water inlet channel 52 and the hot water inlet channel 53 are connected to the two inlets of the control valve core 40, and the outlet of the control valve core 40 is connected to the mixed water channel 51; the cold water inlet channel 52, the hot water inlet channel 53 and the mixed water channel 51 are all the tap water channels. After the upper end of the clean water pipe 2 passes through the mixed water channel 51, its outlet corresponds to the outlet of the mixed water channel 51.

[0039] The working principle of this faucet is:

[0040] By touching the switch on the touch screen 100, the solenoid valve 120 is controlled by the touch screen control circuit 110 to open or close the water purification waterway;

[0041] By axially rotating the hand-held portion 90 of the handle upward, the valve stem 41 of the control valve core 40 is driven to move upward to open the tap water channel. At this time, the paving groove 71 can axially paved the cylindrical section of the handle connecting portion 92, and the handle seat 70 remains stationary; then, the hand-held portion 90 is rotated circumferentially to the left or right to adjust the flow rate. When the hand-held portion 90 is rotated circumferentially, the handle seat 70 is driven to rotate synchronously circumferentially through the cylindrical section of the handle connecting portion 92, and the rotating gasket 1 is driven to rotate synchronously; while the handle seat 70 rotates, the power connection head 132 of the touch screen wire 130 is driven to rotate synchronously, so that the touch screen wire 130 is twisted. Since the touch screen wire 130 between the power connection head 132 and the isolation platform 131 has a sufficient length reserved, it can ensure that the touch screen wire 130 is not damaged by twisting; under the isolation effect of the isolation platform 131, the touch screen wire 130 will not interfere with the pressure cover 80 or other components of the faucet body, ensuring the normal connection of the circuit.

[0042] The display screen 30 is installed at the assembly groove 11 and electrically connected to the water purifier 20. The display screen 30 can display the usage days, water quality status and other parameters of the water purifier 20 in real time, which is convenient for users to monitor the usage status of the water purifier 20 in real time and is more intuitive; at the same time, the solenoid valve 120 is controlled by the touch screen 100 to control the on and off of the water purification waterway, making the opening or closing of the water purification waterway more convenient, and can also save the installation space of the faucet body, thereby reducing the size of the entire faucet.

[0043] In the existing faucet structure, if there is interference between the wire and the structural components, the structural components are modified to match the requirements of the wire, which will make the structural components more complicated. In this case, by improving the structure of the wire, adding the isolation platform 131 and the power connection head 132, it can be ensured that the touch screen wire 130 will not interfere with the structure of the faucet body when rotating, and a new design idea is used to simplify the structural components of the faucet.

[0044] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and therefore cannot be used to limit the scope of the present invention. That is, equivalent changes and modifications made according to the patent scope of the present invention and the contents of the specification should still fall within the scope of the present invention.
