[0028] Embodiment 1

[0029] Refer to Figures 1-4 , a washbasin faucet with two water outlets, comprising: a faucet body 1 and an operating member 2;

[0030] The faucet body 1 is provided with a first water outlet 11 and a second water outlet 12, and a first water flow channel 13 communicating with the first water outlet 11, a second water flow channel 14 communicating with the second water outlet 12, and a switching member 15 are arranged inside the faucet body 1; in this embodiment, the first water outlet 11 is a lower water outlet, facing the washbasin and equipped with a bubbler. The second water outlet 12 is an upper water outlet and is inclined towards the user. In this way, the first water outlet 11 is the lower water outlet of an ordinary washbasin faucet, and the second water outlet 12 forms a mouthwash water outlet, and the user can use the mouthwash water outlet for operations such as washing the face or rinsing the mouth.

[0031] In order to facilitate the user to switch the water outlet states of the two water outlets, the switching member 15 is arranged to be linked with the operating member 2. When the operating member 2 is in the first position, the communication between the first water outlet 11 and the first water flow channel 13 is disconnected by the switching member 15, the second water outlet 12 is communicated with the second water flow channel 14, and the second water outlet 12 is exposed; when the operating member 2 is in the second position, the first water outlet 11 is communicated with the first water flow channel 13, the communication between the second water outlet 12 and the second water flow channel 14 is disconnected by the switching member 15, and the second water outlet 12 is covered by the operating member 2.

[0032] For the above-mentioned water outlet device with two water outlets, the water outlet is switched by moving the position of the operating member 2, and the operation is relatively simple. And when the operating member 2 closes the water outlet of the upper water outlet, it also covers the upper water outlet, so that the upper water outlet can be hidden when not in use, thus avoiding the problem of dust accumulation caused by the long-term exposure of the upper water outlet. In this way, it can ensure that when the user uses the upper water outlet to wash the face or rinse the mouth, the flowing water is clean.

[0033] In addition, if the operating member 2 remains in the first position when the water is turned off, then when the user turns on the water next time, the second water outlet 12 will directly discharge water, which is likely to wet the user.

[0034] In order to avoid this situation, a reset member 16 is further arranged inside the faucet body 1; when the operating member 2 is in the first position, the switching member 15 abuts against the reset member 16 to accumulate elastic reset force; when the operating member 2 is in the first position and the water is turned off, the reset member 16 drives the switching member 15 and the operating member 2 to reset to the second position. After the above settings, the operating member 2 will automatically return to the second position in the water-off state. Therefore, every time the user opens the faucet, it is the default that the lower water outlet discharges water, which conforms to the user's usage habits and can also avoid the situation that the user is wet by the water sprayed from the upper water outlet due to incorrect operation.

[0035] In this embodiment, in order to achieve the above-mentioned automatic reset effect, the switching member 15 is a switching shaft, and a sealing ring 151 is sleeved on the side wall thereof; a chamber 17 communicating with the water inlet end of the main body is arranged in the faucet main body 1. The front end of the chamber 17 along the axial direction of the switching shaft communicates with the second water outlet channel 14, and the rear end communicates with the first water outlet channel 13. Then when water flows out from the second water outlet channel 14, the water flow axially squeezes the sealing ring 151 on the switching shaft backward along the axial direction of the switching shaft, so that the sealing member always cuts off the communication between the chamber 17 and the first water outlet channel 13. In this way, it is ensured that the operating member 2 is always located at the first position. After the water is turned off, the water pressure in the chamber 17 disappears, and the reset member 16 can drive the operating member 2 back to the second position when it resets.

[0036] In this embodiment, the reset member 16 is a spring. One end of the switching shaft along the axial direction abuts against the free end of the spring, and the fixed end of the spring abuts against the inner wall of the main body.

[0037] In order to achieve the blocking of the second water outlet 12 by the operating member 2, the operating member 2 is a push button, which is attached to the surface of the faucet main body 1, and its lower surface extends into the main body through a fixing rod 21 and is linked to the switching shaft. Specifically, a circumferential groove 152 is arranged on the outer wall of the switching shaft along the circumferential direction, and the fixing rod 21 is clamped with the groove 152. In this way, when the operating member 2 translates on the surface of the faucet main body 1, the switching shaft also translates along its own axial direction.

[0038] Taking the washbasin faucet as an example in this embodiment, the above structure can also be applied to other water outlet devices with two water outlets, such as shower heads and kitchen faucets. The two water outlets do not necessarily have one water outlet downward and one water outlet upward, and can be freely set according to the actual needs of specific products, which all belong to simple replacements of this embodiment and will not be elaborated here.

[0039] Embodiment 2

[0040] Refer to Figures 5-6 , the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that when the operating member 2 is in the second position, the second water outlet 12 is not covered by the operating member 2 either and is always in an exposed state. The rest is the same as that in Embodiment 1 and will not be elaborated here.

[0041] As mentioned above, it is only the preferred specific embodiment of the present invention; however, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, according to the technical solution of the present invention and its improved concept, makes equivalent replacements or changes, and should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
