Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a faucet, and in particular to a non-integrated touch faucet. Background Art

[0002] The existing touch faucet is an integral touch mode, which uses an insulating base and an insulating water inlet pipe to achieve touch signal isolation between the faucet and the installation table and surrounding objects.

[0003] Disadvantages of existing touch faucets:

[0004] 1. The insulating base affects the overall appearance of the faucet and is not easy to match with special-shaped faucet bodies.

[0005] 2. The insulating base needs to be compatible with the faucet and is not universal.

[0006] 3. The insulating base is difficult to install and cannot be adapted to the installation hole diameters of all sinks and countertops.

[0007] 4. The insulating base requires installation guidance. It is easy to forget to install it or not install it according to the requirements during installation, resulting in invalid touch and many after-sales problems.

[0008] 5. Insulated water inlet pipes are not commonly used in the market and after-sales replacement must be provided by the manufacturer.

[0009] 6. The insulated water inlet pipe uses a plastic braided pipe, which has lower pressure resistance than stainless steel braided pipe and is prone to bursting and leakage.

[0010] Therefore, developing a non-integrated touch faucet has become an urgent problem to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the invention

[0011] The present invention is to solve the above-mentioned deficiencies and provides a non-integrated touch faucet.

A wear-resistant ring limit ring is provided at the upper edge of the threaded interface. The isolation wear-resistant ring is sleeved on the isolation rotating core until its lower end abuts against the wear-resistant ring limit ring.

[0015] A positioning block is provided on the upper side wall of the isolation core, and a spring hook is provided on the upper end thereof; the signal coupling ring is cylindrical, and a positioning groove is provided on the bottom thereof; the signal coupling ring is inserted into the upper part of the isolation core, the positioning block is inserted into the positioning groove, and the spring hook is clamped on the inner edge of the upper port of the signal coupling ring; the outer wall of the signal coupling ring is provided with a first damping rubber ring which is sealed with the inner wall of the faucet elbow, so that a gap is formed between the two;

[0017] Furthermore, there is a gap between the signal coupling ring and the faucet elbow, and there is no contact between the two. The touch signal is coupled to the faucet elbow through air, and the faucet elbow can be operated by touch.

[0018] Furthermore, the isolation rotating core is in a cylindrical shape, and a signal wire groove is provided on its inner wall, and the signal wire at the faucet end passes through the signal wire groove and is connected to the signal coupling ring.

[0019] Furthermore, the isolation wear-resistant ring is designed in a closed ring shape (i.e., cylindrical, while the wear-resistant rings on the market use an open ring structure). The closed ring design can completely isolate the faucet elbow and the faucet body, and the closed ring design will not hide dirt (dirt is easy to conduct electricity, and the dirt between the faucet elbow and the faucet body will cause the touch sensitivity to decrease or even malfunction).

[0020] Furthermore, a second damping rubber ring is provided on the outer wall of the isolation rotating core, and the second damping rubber ring is located between the isolation rotating core and the isolation wear-resistant ring to optimize the rotation feel of the faucet elbow.

[0021] Furthermore, wear-resistant protrusions are evenly distributed on the outer wall of the isolation wear-resistant ring.

[0022] Furthermore, an upper portion of the end surface of the button is provided with an inclined surface for facilitating insertion of the faucet elbow.

[0023] Furthermore, the signal coupling ring is made of metal material.

[0024] Furthermore, the isolation rotating core and the isolation wear-resistant ring are made of electrically insulating materials to prevent the touch signal from being transmitted from the faucet elbow to the faucet body, and only the part above the elbow of the entire faucet can be touch-operated.

[0025] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: the touch signal is output from the touch controller to the control end signal line, the control end signal line is connected to the faucet end signal line, the faucet end signal line passes through the faucet body, and then passes through the isolation core to connect to the signal coupling ring, and the signal is transmitted to the signal coupling ring. The signal coupling ring is made of metal material, there is a gap between the signal coupling ring and the faucet elbow, there is no contact between the two, the touch signal is coupled to the faucet elbow in the air, and the faucet elbow can be operated by touch.

[0026] The advantages of the present invention compared with the prior art are:

[0027] 1. There is a gap between the signal coupling ring and the faucet elbow of the present invention, and there is no contact between the two. The touch signal is coupled to the faucet elbow through air, realizing a non-integrated touch elbow touch control method.

[0028] 2. The signal line at the faucet end passes through the signal line groove of the faucet body and the isolation core and is connected to the signal coupling ring, which has precise coordination and stable operation.

[0029] 3. The effective coordination of the three components in the isolation core assembly enables the touch signal to pass through the isolation core and the isolation wear-resistant ring to isolate the part below the faucet elbow, preventing the touch signal from being transmitted from the faucet elbow to the faucet body.
