[0043] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present invention clearer and more understandable, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0044] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, a double faucet structure includes:

[0045] The main valve body 10 has a water inlet channel 11. The main valve body 10 is provided with a first valve core 12, and the first valve core 12 is used to control the opening and closing of the water inlet channel 11;

[0046] A first water outlet body 20 is provided on the main valve body 10 and has a first water outlet channel 21 communicating with the water inlet channel 11;

[0047] A second water outlet body 30 is provided on the main valve body 10 and has a second water outlet channel 31 connected to the water inlet channel 11. The second water outlet body 30 is also provided with a second valve core 32 for controlling the opening and closing of the second water outlet channel 31.

[0048] The diverter 40 is arranged on the main valve body 10 and is provided with a movable switching member 41. When the switching member 41 moves to the first position, the water inlet channel 11 is connected with the first water outlet channel 21. When the switching member 41 moves to the second position, the water inlet channel 11 is connected with the second water outlet channel 31. The switching member 41 is provided with a pressure-bearing part 411. When the second water outlet channel 31 is opened, the pressure-bearing part 411 moves to the second position under the action of the water inlet pressure of the water inlet channel 11.

[0049] In this embodiment, the water outlet ends of the first water outlet body 20 and the second water outlet body 30 are both provided with replaceable bubblers 50 .

[0050] In this embodiment, the first valve core 12 is a hot and cold water mixing valve core, and the second valve core 32 adopts an angle valve structure in the prior art.

[0051] In this embodiment, a flow gap 13 is formed between the pressure-bearing portion 411 and the inner wall of the main valve body 10 . When the switching member 41 moves to the second position, the water inlet channel 11 is connected to the second water outlet channel 31 through the flow gap 13 .

[0052] In this embodiment, the diverter 40 also includes a diverter rack 42, and the diverter rack 42 is provided with a water hole 421. The water inlet channel 11 is connected to the first water outlet channel 21 through the water hole 421. The switching component 41 also includes a sealing portion 412 that cooperates with the opening and closing of the water hole 421. When the switching component 41 moves to the first position, the sealing portion 412 opens the water hole 421. When the switching component 41 moves to the second position, the sealing portion 412 closes the water hole 421.

[0053] In this embodiment, the force-bearing area of ​​the sealing part 412 is smaller than the force-bearing area of ​​the pressure-bearing part 411, and the pressure difference between the sealing part 412 and the pressure-bearing part 411 is cleverly utilized to realize automatic switching of the water outlet. When the second water outlet channel 31 is opened, the force on the pressure-bearing part 411 is greater than the force on the sealing part 412, thereby driving the switching part 41 to move to the second position. When the second water outlet channel 31 is closed, the force on the sealing part 412 is greater than the force on the pressure-bearing part 411, thereby driving the switching part 41 to return to the first position.

[0054] In this embodiment, the sealing portion 412 and the pressure-bearing portion 411 are respectively located at two ends of the switching member 41 , so that the switching member 41 is in an I-shape.

[0055] In this embodiment, the first water outlet 20 is rotatably arranged around the axis of the main valve body 10, so that the first water outlet 20 is rotatable and convenient to use.

[0056] In this embodiment, a rotatable first rotating part 60 is provided on the main valve body 10, and the second water outlet body 30 is connected to the first rotating part 60, so that the first rotating part 60 drives the second water outlet body 30 to rotate around the circumference of the main valve body 10, so that the second water outlet body 30 is rotatable for convenient use.

[0057] In this embodiment, it also includes a second rotating member 70 connected to the first rotating member 60 and rotating in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the main valve body 10. The second water outlet 30 is connected to the second rotating member 70, and then the second rotating member 70 drives the second water outlet 30 to rotate in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the main valve body 10, so that the second water outlet 30 can achieve multi-directional rotation, which is more flexible and convenient to use.

[0058] In this embodiment, the second water outlet 30 is a deformable gooseneck tube. The second water outlet 30 can not only rotate but also deform, which further enhances the flexibility of use of the second water outlet 30.

[0059] The specific working process of this embodiment is as follows:

[0060] When the first valve core 12 is opened, water flows into the water inlet channel 11;

[0061] When the second valve core 32 closes the second water outlet channel 31, the force on the sealing portion 412 of the switching member 41 is greater than the force on the pressure-bearing portion 411, and the sealing portion 412 is pushed open. The switching member 41 moves upward to the first position, opening the water hole 421, so that the water in the water inlet channel 11 flows through the water hole 421 to the first water outlet channel 21.

[0062] When the second valve core 32 opens the second water outlet channel 31, the force on the pressure-bearing part 411 is greater than the force on the sealing part 412. Under the action of the pressure difference, the switching part 41 moves downward to the second position, and the sealing part 412 closes the water hole 421, thereby allowing the water flow in the water inlet channel 11 to flow to the second water outlet channel 31 through the flow gap 13.

[0063] The diverter 40 of this solution can automatically switch the water path when the second water outlet channel 31 of the second water outlet body 30 is opened, so that the water inlet channel 11 and the second water outlet channel 31 are connected. It has a simple structure and is easy to operate, which greatly improves the user experience.

[0064] The foregoing description shows and describes preferred embodiments of the present invention. As previously mentioned, it should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the form disclosed herein and should not be construed as excluding other embodiments. Instead, the present invention can be used in various other combinations, modifications, and environments and can be modified within the scope of the inventive concept described herein by the teachings above or by techniques or knowledge in the relevant art. Modifications and variations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention are intended to be within the scope of the appended claims.
