[0058] The present disclosure includes and contemplates combinations of features and elements known to those of ordinary skill in the art. The presently disclosed embodiments, features and elements can also be combined with any conventional feature or element to form unique inventive solutions. Any feature or element of any embodiment can also be combined with features or elements from other inventive solutions to form another unique inventive solution. Therefore, it should be understood that any feature shown and / or discussed in the present disclosure can be implemented alone or in any appropriate combination. Accordingly, the embodiments are not to be restricted, except as by the appended claims and their equivalents. Furthermore, various modifications and changes can be made within the scope of the attached claims.
[0059] The existing water outlet faucet generally adopts a hose or a pulling manner to realize the change of the water outlet angle. However, the above-mentioned manner of changing the water outlet angle needs to hold the water outlet angle to be fixed by hand, which brings inconvenience to the user's cleaning action.
[0060] The water outlet faucet provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure can be installed in various environments such as companies, schools, families, and factories, to realize the cleaning treatment of the objects to be cleaned, so as to improve and improve the quality of people's life and health.
[0061] Please combine Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 9 , Figure 13 , Figure 15 and Figure 17 , the water outlet faucet provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described. The water outlet faucet includes a body assembly 10, a water outlet assembly 20, and a hinged assembly 30. The body assembly 10 has a water inlet channel 100. The body assembly 10 can be arranged on a table top or a wall surface. The body assembly 10 can be connected to a water source through a pipeline. For example, the body assembly 10 can be connected to a municipal water network through a pipeline, or connected to a water storage container through a pipeline. The body assembly 10 can include a manually controlled or electrically controlled valve structure 11, which controls the conduction or disconnection of the water inlet channel 100 to realize the water outlet or closing of the water outlet assembly 20. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the body assembly 10 includes a housing 12 and a valve structure 11. The valve structure 11 is installed in the housing 12 and partially exposed to the housing 12, so as to facilitate manual control. The housing 12 has a connecting end 121 to cooperate with a connecting piece to fix the water outlet faucet on the table top or the wall surface. The connecting end 121 and the connecting piece can be connected by but not limited to threaded connection, plug-in connection, clamping connection or welding, etc. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the valve structure 11 can also be arranged in the water outlet assembly 20 to control the conduction or disconnection of the water inlet channel 100.
[0062] The water outlet assembly 20 has a water outlet flow channel 200, and water entering the water outlet flow channel 200 can be discharged from the water outlet of the water outlet assembly 20 to form different water outlet patterns. Among them, the water outlet assembly 20 can be a water outlet assembly 20 with fixed water outlet patterns, or a water outlet assembly 20 with variable water outlet patterns by changing the shape, size and other parameters of the water outlet.
[0063] The hinged assembly 30 includes a first hinge 31, a second hinge 32, and a hose 33. The first hinge 31 is arranged on the body assembly 10 along a first direction, and the second hinge 32 is arranged on the water outlet assembly 20. The hose 33 is connected between the water inlet flow channel 100 and the water outlet flow channel 200, the first hinge 31 and the second hinge 32 are hinged, and the relative angle α between the first hinge 31 and the second hinge 32 can be fixed by generating a static friction force between the first hinge 31 and the second hinge 32. Among them, the rotation axis direction of the first hinge 31 and the second hinge 32 intersects or is out of the first direction, so that the rotation axis direction is not parallel to the first direction, and in the process of rotating the first hinge 31 relative to the second hinge 32, the distance between the body assembly 10 and the straight line in the first direction can be changed, and then the water outlet angle of the water outlet assembly 20 is adjusted. Among them, the first direction is parallel to the direction of the arrow X in the middle. Figure 1
[0064] When it is necessary to adjust the relative angle α between the first hinge 31 and the second hinge 32, the driving force can be increased so that the driving force is greater than the static friction force, thereby adjusting the relative angle α between the first hinge 31 and the second hinge 32 and changing the water outlet angle of the water outlet assembly 20. Among them, the range of the above-mentioned angle α can be 0° to 180°.
[0065] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of the water inlet flow channel 100 and the water outlet flow channel 200 is one, which can be connected by one hose 33. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the number of at least one of the water inlet flow channel 100 and the water outlet flow channel 200 can also be multiple, and correspondingly, the number of the hose 33 can also be multiple, so that each water inlet flow channel 100 is independent of each other, and each water outlet flow channel 200 is also independent of each other.
[0066] The embodiment of the present disclosure comprises a body assembly 10 with a water inlet channel 100, a water outlet assembly 20 with a water outlet channel 200, and a hinged assembly 30 connected between the body assembly 10 and the water outlet assembly 20. The hinged assembly 30 comprises a first hinged piece 31 arranged on the body assembly 10, a second hinged piece 32 arranged on the water outlet assembly 20, and a hose 33 connected between the water inlet channel 100 and the water outlet channel 200. The first hinged piece 31 and the second hinged piece 32 are hinged and can generate a static friction force, so that after adjusting the relative angle a of the first hinged piece 31 and the second hinged piece 32, the static friction force can be used to fix the above-mentioned angle a, so that the water outlet angle of the water outlet assembly 20 is fixed, avoiding the need to hold the above-mentioned angle a by hand, thereby releasing both hands, so that the user can more conveniently complete the cleaning action.
[0067] In the exemplary embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 16 , the first hinged piece 31 comprises at least one first hinged part 311, the second hinged piece 32 comprises at least one second hinged part 321, and the at least one first hinged part 311 and the at least one second hinged part 321 are arranged along the rotation axis direction. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of the first hinged piece 31 is two and is arranged along the rotation axis direction, and the number of the second hinged piece 32 is two and is hinged one-to-one with the first hinged piece 31. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the number of the first hinged piece 31 can also be one or more than three. The number of the second hinged piece 32 can also be one or more than three. Each first hinged part 311 can be hinged with one or more second hinged parts 321 at the same time. Or, each second hinged part 321 can be hinged with one or more first hinged parts 311 at the same time. The increase of the number of the first hinged piece 31 and the second hinged piece 32 can increase the connection area of the first hinged piece 31 and the second hinged piece 32 and improve the hinged stability. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first hinged part 311 is arranged on the side of the corresponding second hinged part 321 away from the other second hinged part 321, so that the movement of the first hinged piece 31 and the second hinged piece 32 along the rotation axis direction can be limited by the mutual limitation of the two groups of hinged structures (two groups of first hinged parts 311 and second hinged parts 321), avoiding the movement of the first hinged piece 31 and the second hinged piece 32 along the rotation axis direction, and improving the hinged stability of the first hinged piece 31 and the second hinged piece 32.
[0068] One of the first and second hinge parts 311 and 321 is provided with a circumferential wall 3111 capable of forming a first cylindrical hole, the circumferential wall 3111 is coaxially arranged with the rotation axis. The hinge assembly 30 further comprises a hinge shaft 34. The hinge shaft 34 is coaxially arranged with the rotation axis. The hinge shaft 34 is in interference fit with the circumferential wall 3111, and the hinge shaft 34 is fixedly connected with the other one of the first and second hinge parts 311 and 321 to hinge the first and second hinge parts 311 and 321. In this way, during the relative rotation of the first and second hinge parts 311 and 321 driven by an external force, the hinge shaft 34 can be positionally fixed relative to one of the first and second hinge parts 311 and 321 and can rotate relative to the circumferential wall 3111, thereby adjusting the relative included angle a of the first and second hinge parts 311 and 321, and using the interference fit between the hinge shaft 34 and the circumferential wall 3111 to generate static friction to fix the relative included angle a of the first and second hinge parts 311 and 321 after the external force is removed. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the circumferential wall 3111 is located in the first hinge part 311 and can be integrally formed with the first hinge part 311. The hinge shaft 34 is fixedly connected with the second hinge part 321.
[0069] In an exemplary embodiment, please combine Figure 5 and Figure 16 The first hinge part 311 or the second hinge part 321 provided with the circumferential wall 3111 is provided with an annular groove 300 surrounding the circumferential outside of the circumferential wall 3111. In this way, the setting of the annular groove 300 makes the part of the circumferential wall 3111 away from the hinge shaft 34 lack of support, which can improve the elastic deformation capability of the circumferential wall 3111, avoid plastic deformation between the circumferential wall 3111 and the hinge shaft 34 caused by excessive driving force, affect the interference fit precision between the circumferential wall 3111 and the hinge shaft 34, and ensure the relative stability of the value of the static friction generated between the first and second hinge parts 311 and 321.
[0070] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the circumferential wall 3111 is located in the first hinge part 311, and the annular groove 300 is located in the first hinge part 311 and surrounds the circumferential outside of the circumferential wall 3111. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the circumferential wall 3111 can also be located in the second hinge part 321, and the annular groove 300 is located in the second hinge part 321 and surrounds the circumferential outside of the circumferential wall 3111.
[0071] In an exemplary embodiment, please combine Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 16The first hinge part 311 or the second hinge part 321 provided with the circumferential wall 3111 is provided with an annular wall 3112 forming a second cylindrical hole. The radial dimension of the second cylindrical hole is greater than the radial dimension of the first cylindrical hole, and the first cylindrical hole and the second cylindrical hole are communicated and form a stepped hole. The other one of the first hinge part 311 and the second hinge part 321 has a threaded hole 400, and the hinge shaft 34 can be fixedly connected with the other one of the first hinge part 311 and the second hinge part 321 through the threaded hole 400.
[0072] The hinge shaft 34 comprises a stepped shaft section 341 and a threaded shaft section 342 connected in sequence. The stepped shaft section 341 matches the stepped hole, and the stepped shaft section 341 is arranged to be able to fit the adjacent first hinge part 311 and the second hinge part 321 along the rotation axis direction after the threaded shaft section 342 is screwed into the threaded hole 400, so as to increase the connection area between the first hinge part 311 and the second hinge part 321, thereby improving the size of the static friction between the first hinge part 311 and the second hinge part 321, and ensuring the stability of the relative angle a of the first hinge part 31 and the second hinge part 32 after the external force is removed. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first hinge part 311 and the second hinge part 321 are both plate-shaped structures and are arranged perpendicularly to the rotation axis direction. In this way, the connection area between the first hinge part 311 and the second hinge part 321 can be further increased, and the size of the static friction between the first hinge part 311 and the second hinge part 321 can be improved.
[0073] The stepped shaft section 341 can be matched with the stepped hole to improve the stability of the fitting of the first hinge part 311 and the second hinge part 321, thereby ensuring the stability of the static friction. During the process of screwing the threaded shaft section 342 into the threaded hole 400, the fitting degree of the first hinge part 311 and the second hinge part 321 can be gradually increased, thereby the static friction can be adjusted to ensure the stability of the relative angle a of the first hinge part 31 and the second hinge part 32, and facilitate the external force to adjust the relative angle a of the first hinge part 31 and the second hinge part 32. The external thread of the threaded shaft section 342 and the internal thread forming the threaded hole 400 can not be matched, so that during the process of screwing the threaded shaft section 342 into the threaded hole 400, the external thread and the internal thread are both damaged, thereby ensuring the stability of the connection between the external thread and the internal thread, and further ensuring the stability of the fixed connection between the hinge shaft 34 and one of the first hinge part 311 and the second hinge part 321. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the circumferential wall 3111 is located in the first hinge part 311, and the threaded hole 400 is located in the second hinge part 321. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the circumferential wall 3111 can also be located in the second hinge part 321, and correspondingly, the threaded hole 400 can also be located in the first hinge part 311.
[0074] In the exemplary embodiments, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 16The annular groove 300 is located between the adjacent first hinge part 311 and the second hinge part 321. That is, the annular groove 300 is located in one of the adjacent first hinge part 311 and the second hinge part 321, and the other one can cover the annular groove 300. In this way, after the first hinge part 311 and the second hinge part 321 are attached, the first hinge part 311 or the second hinge part 321 provided with the annular groove 300 can be elastically deformed, avoiding plastic deformation between the first hinge part 311 and the second hinge part 321 caused by excessive driving force, affecting the attachment precision between the first hinge part 311 and the second hinge part 321, and ensuring that the value of the static friction force generated between the first hinge part 311 and the second hinge part 321 is relatively stable. Therefore, the setting of the annular groove 300 ensures that the circumferential wall 3111 and the hinge shaft 34 are elastically matched, and the relative stability of the matching precision and the value of the static friction force is ensured. After the first hinge part 311 and the second hinge part 321 are attached, the first hinge part 311 and the second hinge part 321 can expand outward along the inner edge and the outer edge of the annular groove 300 to the side away from the annular groove 300, that is, the above expansion can further make the circumferential wall 3111 tightly attached to the hinge shaft 34, and improve the stability of the interference fit between the hinge shaft 34 and the circumferential wall 3111. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the annular groove 300 is arranged in the first hinge part 311. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the first hinge part 311 and / or the second hinge part 321 can also be provided with at least one annular groove or groove located between the adjacent first hinge part 311 and the second hinge part 321, so as to improve the elastic deformation capability of the first hinge part 311 and / or the second hinge part 321.
[0075] In the exemplary embodiments, please refer to Figures 3 to 5 , Figure 11 and Figure 16 , the first hinge part 31 further comprises a first shaft body 312. The first hinge part 311 is arranged on the first shaft body 312. The second hinge part 32 further comprises a second shaft body 322.

By adjusting the size of the first limiting portion 313 protruding outward from the first shaft body 312 and the size of the second limiting portion 323 protruding outward from the second shaft body 322, the relative angle a range of the first hinge 31 and the second hinge 32 can be limited. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the first limiting portion 313 can also be arranged on the first hinge portion 311, and the second limiting portion 323 can also be arranged on the second hinge portion 321.

During the rotation of the first hinged piece 31 relative to the body assembly 10, the limiting piece 80 can slide along the annular groove 800. Thus, through the arrangement of the limiting piece 80 and the annular groove 800, a limiting fit is formed between the limiting piece 80 and the body assembly 10, which ensures that the first hinged piece 31 can rotate relative to the rotating shaft body 40. The groove wall of the annular groove 800 arranged along the axial direction of the rotating shaft body 40 can clamp the limiting piece 80, so as to avoid the movement of the first hinged piece 31 along the axial direction of the rotating shaft body 40 relative to the body assembly 10, thereby ensuring the stability of the rotation of the first hinged piece 31 relative to the body assembly 10. The limiting piece 80 can be integrally formed with the body assembly 10, and the limiting piece 80 can be clamped in the annular groove 800 by elastic deformation of the first hinged piece 31 and / or the body assembly 10.
