[0034] In order to further explain the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention will be elaborated in detail below through specific embodiments.
[0035] As Figure 1-8As shown in the figure, this case provides a new type of angle valve structure, which includes a water inlet pipe 1, a switch pipe 2 and a water outlet pipe 3. One end of the water inlet pipe 1 is connected to the embedded pipe in the wall, and the embedded pipe can supply water, specifically, it can be connected by threads. The other end of the water inlet pipe 1 is provided with a first end cover 11, and the first end cover 11 is provided with a water outlet 11a. The switch pipe 2 is provided with a second end cover 21, and the second end cover 21 is provided with a water inlet 21a. In this case, there are two water inlets 21a, and the water outlet 11a and the water inlet 21a can be directly opposite in the vertical direction. The switch pipe 2 is rotatably connected to the water inlet pipe 1, and the first end cover 11 and the second end cover 21 are hermetically stacked, that is, water will not flow out between the first end cover 11 and the second end cover 21. The water outlet pipe 3 is rotatably connected to the switch pipe 2, and the water inlet end of the water outlet pipe 3 is communicated with the water inlet 21a, that is, the water entering from the water inlet 21a can flow into the water outlet pipe 3 from the water inlet end.
[0036] In this way, this case includes a water inlet pipe 1, a switch pipe 2 and a water outlet pipe 3. The water inlet pipe 1 is provided with a water outlet 11a, the switch pipe 2 is provided with a water inlet 21a, and the switch pipe 2 rotates itself to connect or disconnect the water outlet 11a and the water inlet 21a. When the water outlet 11a and the water inlet 21a are directly opposite, the two are connected. On the contrary, when the water outlet 11a and the water inlet 21a are misaligned, the water outlet 11a is blocked by the second end cover 21, and the water inlet 21a is blocked by the first end cover 11, and the water outlet 11a and the water inlet 21a are not connected. After the water outlet 11a and the water inlet 21a are connected, the water flows into the water outlet pipe 3 from the water outlet 11a and the water inlet 21a in sequence, thereby realizing the water supply or non-water supply of the water outlet pipe 3. Also, because the water outlet pipe 3 is rotatably connected to the switch pipe 2, the water outlet pipe 3 can rotate 360 degrees relative to the switch pipe 2 to achieve 360-degree all-round water outlet. In summary, compared with the prior art, this case uses a misaligned water outlet method, with a clever structure, reducing production costs and installation costs, and having a more comprehensive water outlet angle, which is beneficial for flexible use.
[0037] Preferably, there are two water outlets 11a and two water inlets 21a. When the water is turned on in this case, the two water outlets 11a and the two water inlets 21a are connected in one-to-one correspondence to ensure sufficient water output.
[0038] As a specific embodiment of the rotational connection between the water inlet pipe 1 and the switch pipe 2 in this case, this case further includes a connecting piece 5. A threaded hole 11b is provided in the middle of the first end cover 11, a through hole 21b is provided in the middle of the second end cover 21. One end of the connecting piece 5 passes through the through hole 21b and is connected to the threaded hole 11b, and the connecting piece 5 is provided with a limiting portion 51. The second end cover 21 is rotatably clamped between the first end cover 11 and the limiting portion 51. Thus, when the switch pipe 2 rotates, the second end cover 21 can rotate between the first end cover 11 and the limiting portion 51.
[0039] To ensure the sealing performance between the first end cap 11 and the second end cap 21 in this case, this case further includes a gasket 4 that rotates synchronously with the switching tube 2. The gasket 4 is arranged between the first end cap 11 and the second end cap, and the gasket 4 is provided with a water passage port 4a corresponding to and communicating with the water inlet 21a. Thus, the gasket 4 fills the gap between the first end cap 11 and the second end cap, improving the sealing performance between the two end caps.
[0040] More preferably, the gasket 4 is provided with a snap projection 4b, and the second end cap 21 is provided with a snap groove 21c. The snap projection 4b is fitted and embedded in the snap groove 21c. Thus, the gasket 4 can rotate with the rotation of the switching tube 2.
[0041] As a more specific assembly embodiment, the outer wall of the first end cap 11 is provided with a first step 12 and a second step 13 that are sleeved inside and outside. The gasket 4 is provided with a first outer edge 41 that is engaged with the first step 12, and the second end cap 21 is provided with a second outer edge 22 that is engaged with the second step 13. This makes the connection between the gasket 4, the switching tube 2, and the water inlet pipe 1 more stable.
[0042] As a specific embodiment of the rotational connection between the water outlet pipe 3 and the switching tube 2 in this case, this case further includes a connecting sleeve 6. The connecting sleeve 6 includes a sleeve body 61 and a plurality of elastic claws 62 provided inside the sleeve body 61. The switching tube 2 is provided with a plurality of positioning holes 2a that are annularly arranged on the tube wall of the switching tube 2. The water outlet pipe 3 includes a water inlet pipe portion 32, and the water inlet pipe portion 32 is inserted into the switching tube 2 and the outer wall of the water inlet pipe portion 32 is provided with a positioning ring groove 32a that communicates with the positioning holes 2a. The elastic claws 62 sequentially pass through the positioning holes 2a and the positioning ring groove 32a, so as to realize the linkage between the connecting sleeve 6 and the switching tube 2 through the elastic claws 62 and provide support for the water outlet pipe 3.
[0043] More specifically, the sleeve body 61 includes an elastic pressing ring portion 611 and an inner annular boss 612 sleeved on the outer wall of the switching tube 2. The elastic claw 62 includes an elastic portion 621 and a positioning convex portion 622. The positioning convex portion 622 is arranged close to the inner annular boss 612. The elastic portion 621 is connected to the elastic pressing ring portion 611. There is an elastic deformation distance for the elastic pressing ring portion 611 to deform between the elastic pressing ring portion 611 and the switching tube 2. The positioning convex portion 622 sequentially passes through the positioning holes 2a and the positioning ring groove 32a.
[0044] Thus, in the assembly process of this case, specifically, the switching tube 2 and the water inlet pipe 1 are first assembled, and then the water outlet pipe part 31 is inserted into the switching tube 2 so that the positioning ring groove 32a and the positioning hole 2a are aligned. Then, the elastic pressing ring part 611 is pressed so that the elastic part 621 of the elastic claw 62 is squeezed inward and the positioning convex part 622 moves outward, enabling the connecting sleeve 6 to be smoothly sleeved on the switching tube 2. Finally, the elastic pressing ring part 611 is released, and the positioning convex part 622 passes through the positioning hole 2a and is stuck in the positioning ring groove 32a. The assembly is simple, convenient, and labor-saving. The use operation of this case can specifically be as follows: rotate the connecting sleeve 6, and the switch sleeve rotates with the connecting sleeve 6, thereby realizing the opening or closing of the water. Rotate the water outlet pipe 3. During the rotation process, the positioning ring groove 32a and the positioning convex part 622 cooperate to support the water outlet pipe 3, realizing 360-degree water outlet, and the use is flexible.
[0045] Preferably, a sealing ring 7 is provided between the switching tube 2 and the water outlet pipe 3 to improve the sealing performance between the switching tube 2 and the water outlet pipe 3. A guiding ring part 321 is provided on the outer wall of the water outlet pipe 3 to facilitate the insertion of the water outlet pipe 3 into the switching tube 2.
[0046] To extend the water outlet 11a of the water outlet pipe 3, preferably, this case further includes a water outlet hose 8 and a flexible fixing sleeve 9. The water outlet pipe 3 further includes a water outlet pipe part 31, and the water inlet pipe part 32 and the water outlet pipe part 31 are vertically and communicatively arranged. The water outlet hose 8 and the flexible fixing sleeve 9 are sequentially sleeved on the outer wall of the water outlet pipe part 31, and the water outlet hose 8 is fixed between the flexible fixing sleeve 9 and the outer wall of the water outlet pipe part 31. The water outlet angle can be changed by holding the water outlet hose 8 by hand, and the water outlet 11a is extended, further improving the use flexibility.
[0047] More preferably, a plurality of annular card slots 31a are provided on the outer wall of the water outlet pipe part 31, the flexible fixing sleeve 9 is provided with an annular groove 9a, one end of the water outlet hose 8 is inserted into the annular groove 9a, and the flexible fixing sleeve 9 is deformed and pressed against the water outlet pipe part 31 and embedded in the annular card slots 31a. In this way, when assembling the hose, the flexible fixing sleeve 9 equipped with the water outlet hose 8 is sleeved on the water outlet pipe part 31, and then the flexible fixing sleeve 9 is strongly pressed to deform the flexible fixing sleeve 9, and the deformed part is embedded in the annular card slots 31a, so that the flexible fixing sleeve 9 is compacted, thereby realizing the fastening of the water outlet hose 8 on the water outlet pipe 3, and the assembly is very fast.
