Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of kitchen and bathroom equipment technology, and in particular to a faucet installation structure. Background Technology

[0002] Faucets are an essential bathroom product in people's lives. However, the traditional installation of basin faucets and kitchen faucets is designed to require the faucet hose to be passed through the mounting hole 301 of the basin or sink, and then the threaded tube below the faucet to be passed through the mounting hole 301. After that, the installer or user also needs to crawl into the narrow space under the basin or sink to lock the faucet onto the basin or sink with a nut. This is time-consuming and laborious. Therefore, countertop installation technology has emerged.

[0003] However, the mounting holes for faucets in washbasins or sinks vary greatly in diameter, ranging from approximately 33mm to 38mm, due to factors such as materials, manufacturing processes, and different market standards. Faucet mounting structures are often designed with M32 or M33 threaded tubes and 32mm or 33mm outer diameter limiters. If a large mounting hole, such as 38mm, is encountered, the faucet may shift to one side during installation, resulting in insufficient sealing and waterproofing of the faucet's underside. This allows water to easily seep under the countertop, damaging cabinets and bathroom vanities, significantly reducing customer satisfaction and potentially leading to complaints and claims. Alternatively, the contact area between the faucet's under-counter fasteners and those of the washbasin or sink may be small, resulting in unstable fastening and the faucet easily loosening.

[0004] Furthermore, existing platform-mounted structures mostly use markings on the base to indicate the installation direction, but in actual installation operations, the accuracy of the indication is difficult to guarantee. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To solve at least one of the above problems, the present invention provides a faucet installation structure.

[0006] This invention is implemented using the following scheme: This invention proposes a faucet mounting structure for mounting on a panel with mounting holes, comprising a mounting base, a sleeve, two bolts, and two mounting claws, wherein the mounting base is fitted with the sleeve; the mounting base is adapted to be positioned above the panel and used for mounting and connecting with the faucet, and the sleeve is designed to extend through the mounting holes; The mounting base includes an annular body with a main channel through which a faucet connecting pipe can pass; the annular body has a main sidewall with two bolt holes longitudinally extending through it, and the bolts are rotatably inserted into the bolt holes; The sleeve includes a sleeve body, which is a hollow cylindrical structure extending along the axial direction; The mounting claw is threaded onto the bolt, so that when the bolt is rotated, the mounting claw can be limited by the sleeve body and move upward along the threaded portion of the bolt, so that the mounting claw and the mounting seat are respectively clamped on both sides of the panel, thereby fixing the faucet mounting structure on the panel. The sleeve body includes a cylindrical sidewall, and the cylindrical sidewall is provided with at least one elastic structure, which is used to abut against the inner wall of the mounting hole.

[0007] The elastic structure is disposed on the side wall of the cylinder opposite to the bolt, so that the sleeve is biased toward the bolt in the mounting hole.

[0008] In one embodiment, the elastic structure is a cantilever structure with a downward fixed end and an upward free end. The lower end of the mounting base is provided with an elastic structure storage groove, and the free end portion of the elastic structure is located within the storage groove.

[0009] In one embodiment, the sleeve body is shaped to be axially inserted into the main channel of the annular body; the upper end of the sleeve body is provided with a limiting flange, which is positioned and installed on the upper end face of the mounting base.

[0010] In one embodiment, a portion of the sidewall protrudes into the mounting channel to form a protrusion, and the bolt hole is disposed in the protrusion; the sidewall of the cylinder is recessed with an axially extending guide groove, which can cooperate with the protrusion.

[0011] In one embodiment, a limiting post is provided on one side of the guide groove. The limiting post extends axially and its lower end extends downward beyond the sleeve body, so that the lower end of the limiting post and the lower end of the sleeve body are offset from each other in height.

[0012] In one embodiment, the sidewall of the cylinder is provided with a plurality of elastic structures; the plurality of elastic structures are evenly distributed circumferentially on the sidewall of the cylinder, or the plurality of elastic structures are symmetrically distributed with respect to the center of the sleeve; thereby, the sleeve can be positioned at the center of the mounting hole by means of the abutment between the elastic structures and the inner wall of the mounting hole.

[0013] In one embodiment, the side wall of the cylinder is provided with a gap, the gap including an axially extending portion and an opening portion. The opening portion is connected to one side of the lower end of the axially extending portion. The threaded portion of the bolt can be inserted into the axially extending portion. The mounting claw can move upward around the threaded portion of the bolt by means of the limiting edge of the axially extending portion. The opening portion is used for the mounting claw to pass through.

[0014] In one embodiment, the lower end of the mounting base is recessed with a limiting mounting groove; the upper end of the sleeve body is provided with a limiting flange, the sleeve is positioned and mounted on the panel through the limiting flange, and the limiting flange is fitted in the limiting mounting groove; the upper end of the sleeve body extends upward beyond the upper end face of the limiting flange, thereby forming at least one positioning protrusion, the positioning protrusion being used to cooperate with the main channel.

[0015] In one embodiment, the faucet mounting structure further includes an installation and calibration tool. The installation and calibration tool includes a limiting part and an indicating part connected to each other. The limiting part is oriented and installed on the mounting base, and the indicating part is provided with a direction indicator mark. The limiting part is provided with a limiting hole, and the lower part of the main body sidewall is provided with a snap-fit ​​structure. The shape of the limiting hole is adapted to the shape of the snap-fit ​​structure, so that the installation and calibration tool can be oriented and fitted onto the snap-fit ​​structure of the mounting base.

[0016] The technical solution provided by this invention has the following technical effects: 1. The present invention provides a faucet installation structure in which the sleeve has an elastic structure on its side wall. The elastic structure can abut against the inner wall of the installation hole of the sink or basin, so that the sleeve can adapt to different installation hole sizes and the installation is more convenient.

[0017] 2. In one embodiment, the elastic structure is disposed on the side wall of the cylinder opposite to the bolt, so that the sleeve is biased toward the bolt in the mounting hole; thereby, the contact area between the mounting claw and the bottom wall around the mounting hole is larger, making the installation of the faucet mounting structure more stable and the faucet less likely to loosen.

[0018] 3. In one embodiment, the side wall of the cylinder is provided with multiple elastic structures; the multiple elastic structures are evenly distributed circumferentially on the side wall of the cylinder, or the multiple elastic structures are symmetrically distributed with respect to the center of the sleeve; thereby, the sleeve can be positioned at the center of the mounting hole by means of the abutment between the elastic structure and the inner wall of the mounting hole, so that the faucet mounting structure is positioned more accurately, the installation is more reliable, and the sealing ring can achieve a more uniform seal in the circumferential direction, resulting in a better sealing effect.

[0019] 4. The faucet installation structure also includes an installation alignment tool. This tool is used to ensure the accuracy of the installation direction during the installation of the faucet installation structure. After the faucet installation structure is completed, when installing the faucet, it ensures that the faucet is not tilted. This prevents the need to return and readjust the position of the faucet installation structure if the faucet is found to be tilted after installation, thus avoiding the cumbersome installation process and improving the convenience of installation.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] To further illustrate the various embodiments, the present invention provides accompanying drawings. These drawings are part of the disclosure of the present invention, primarily used to illustrate the embodiments and to explain the operating principles of the embodiments in conjunction with the relevant descriptions in the specification. With reference to these drawings, those skilled in the art should be able to understand other possible implementations and the advantages of the present invention. Components in the drawings are not drawn to scale, and similar component symbols are generally used to represent similar components.

[0022] The present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0023] Example 1 Reference Figures 1-10 As shown, this embodiment provides a faucet mounting structure 100 for installation on a panel with mounting holes in a sink or basin. It includes a mounting base 1, a sleeve 2, a bolt 3, mounting claws 4, an anti-detachment cap 5, and a sealing ring 6. The mounting base 1 is adapted to be installed above the panel and used for connection with the faucet. The sleeve 2 is designed to extend through the mounting holes in the panel.

[0024] Reference Figures 1-3 The mounting base 1 includes an annular body 11, in which a main channel 12 is provided. The main channel 12 can be used to pass through structures such as faucet connecting hoses and inlet nuts. The annular body 11 includes a main body sidewall 112 extending circumferentially, and a snap-fit ​​structure 111 is provided at the lower part of the main body sidewall 112.

[0025] The sleeve 2 includes a sleeve body 21, which is a hollow cylindrical structure extending axially. The sleeve 2 is installed and fitted with the mounting base 1. In this embodiment, the sleeve body 21 is designed to be inserted axially into the main channel 12 of the annular body 11. The upper end of the sleeve body 21 is provided with a limiting flange 25, which is positioned and installed on the upper end face of the mounting base 1, thereby positioning and installing the sleeve 2 on the mounting base 1 through the limiting flange 25. The diameter of the lower part of the sleeve body 21 is smaller than the mounting hole of the sink or basin, so that the lower part of the sleeve 2 can pass through the mounting hole of the sink or basin and be inserted under the basin. The sleeve 2 can provide guidance and limitation for the installation of the mounting base 1 relative to the mounting hole of the sink or basin. The sleeve body 21 has a C-shaped cross-section and a side opening 26. This allows the sleeve 2 to be installed even after the water pipe from the faucet passes through the main body channel 12 in the middle of the mounting base 1 from the platform. In other words, the sleeve 2 can be installed after the water pipe, allowing larger water pipes and connectors to pass through the main body channel 12 of the mounting base 1. Furthermore, the sleeve channel 27 in the middle of the sleeve body 21 can also be used to pass through the faucet connecting hose and inlet nut, among other structures.

[0026] Mounting base 1 is also provided with two bolt holes 13, which are located in the main body sidewall 112 of the annular body 11. In this embodiment, a portion of the main body sidewall 112 protrudes into the main body channel 12 to form a protrusion 113, and the bolt holes 13 are located in the protrusion 113. Figure 3 As shown, bolt holes 13 extend axially through the mounting base 1. Bolt holes 13 are used to insert bolts 3. Bolts 3 are rotatably installed in bolt holes 13. The sleeve body 21 includes a cylindrical sidewall 211, which is recessed with an axially extending guide groove 22. The shape and position of the guide groove 22 are adapted to the protrusion 113, so that the sleeve 2 can be oriented and installed in the main body channel 12 in the middle of the mounting base 1 by means of the mating structure of the guide groove 22 and the protrusion 113. In this embodiment, two guide grooves 22 are provided.

[0027] Bolt 3 passes through bolt hole 13 into mounting base 1 and into guide groove 22 of sleeve 2. The head of bolt 3 abuts against mounting base 1. Mounting claw 4 is threaded onto bolt 3. Mounting claw 4 has an internal threaded hole 41, through which bolt 3 is threadedly connected to mounting claw 4. Mounting claw 4 can be rotated along with bolt 3, or it can be limited by sleeve 2 and move up and down around the threaded portion of bolt 3. In this embodiment, sleeve 2 has a limiting post 23 on one side of guide groove 22, extending axially. Mounting claw 4 can be limited by limiting post 23 and move up and down around the threaded portion of bolt 3. Guide groove 22 guides the up and down movement of mounting claw 4.

[0028] Reference Figure 8 The mounting claw 4 can be rotated to a retracted position, in which it is essentially retracted inside the sleeve 2. In this retracted state, the lower part of the sleeve 2 and the mounting claw 4 can smoothly pass through the mounting hole of the sink or basin. (Refer to...) Figure 5 The mounting claw 3 can also be rotated in another direction to an open position, in which the mounting claw 4 protrudes from the sleeve 2. Furthermore, the mounting claw 4 can move upward by the limiting bolt 3 of the limiting post 23 until it abuts against the lower surface of the panel of the sink or basin, thereby clamping the mounting claw 4 and the mounting base 1 onto both sides of the panel, thus fixing the faucet mounting structure 100 on the panel of the sink or basin, achieving tabletop mounting and fixing of the faucet mounting structure 100, which is quick and convenient to install.

[0029] Reference Figures 1-4 The sleeve 2 has at least one elastic structure 24 on its cylindrical side wall 211. The elastic structure 24 can abut against the inner wall of the mounting hole of the sink or basin, so that the sleeve 2 can adapt to different mounting hole sizes and make installation more convenient.

[0030] Furthermore, the elastic structure 24 is disposed on the side wall 211 of the sleeve 2 opposite to the bolt 3. Thus, when the sleeve 2 is installed in the mounting hole of the sink or basin, the push of the elastic structure 24 causes one side of the guide groove 22 of the sleeve 2 to be closer to the edge of the mounting hole. This causes the sleeve 2 to be offset towards the bolt 3 within the mounting hole, resulting in a larger contact area between the mounting claw 4 and the bottom wall around the mounting hole. This makes the installation of the faucet mounting structure 100 more stable and prevents the faucet from loosening. In this embodiment, two elastic structures 24 are provided on the side wall 211 of the sleeve 2, and the two elastic structures 24 are located on the side wall 211 opposite to the two guide grooves 22.

[0031] Reference Figure 4 The elastic structure 24 is a cantilever structure, having a downward-facing fixed end 241 and an upward-facing free end 242. Further refer to... Figure 5 , Figure 6 as well as Figure 8 In this embodiment, the lower end of the mounting base 1 is provided with an elastic structure storage groove 15, and the free end 242 of the elastic structure 24 is partially located in the storage groove 15. This prevents the free end 242 of the elastic structure 24 from being lower than the bottom surface of the countertop when encountering installation structures such as thin-walled sinks or thin-walled basins, which would cause the free end 242 of the elastic structure 24 to get stuck under the mounting hole, making it difficult to remove the installation structure. Figure 5 The image shows two elastic structures 24 that can share a circumferentially extending storage slot 15. However, this is not the only embodiment. In other embodiments, each elastic structure 24 may have a separate storage slot.

[0032] Reference Figure 4 The lower end of the limiting post 23 extends downward beyond the sleeve body 21, that is, the lower end of the limiting post 23 is lower than the lower end of the sleeve body 21. The lower ends of the two are staggered in height, so that the mounting claw 4 can rotate inward to retract or rotate outward to open at this staggered position. The limiting post 23 can provide rotation guidance and angle limit for the inward rotation and outward rotation of the mounting claw 4.

[0033] A cap 5 is also installed at the lower end of the bolt 3. The cap 5 is used to prevent the bolt 3 from being rotated beyond its limit position when the faucet mounting structure 100 is disassembled, which would cause the mounting claw 4 to fall off the bolt 3. A sealing ring 6 is provided between the lower end face of the mounting base 1 and the countertop, thereby improving the sealing performance between the faucet mounting structure 100a and the countertop.

[0034] Reference Figure 7 The upper part of the bolt hole 13 is a circular hole structure 131 larger than the outer diameter of the bolt 3's threaded portion, and the lower part of the bolt hole 13 is an enlarged hole structure 132 extending towards the center of the mounting base. The circular hole structure 131 and the enlarged hole structure 132 can have a natural transition. The circular hole structure 131 restricts the position of the bolt 3's head, preventing the bolt 3's head from shifting towards the center of the mounting base 1 after tightening, thus preventing the water pipe with the nut connector from passing through the mounting base 1. The enlarged hole structure 132 allows the bolt 3 to drive the mounting claw 4 to tilt towards the center of the mounting base 1 when the faucet mounting structure 100 is placed into the mounting hole of a sink or basin, making it easier for the faucet mounting structure 100 to be assembled into the mounting hole.

[0035] See Figures 9-10 The faucet mounting structure 100 also includes an installation and calibration tool 6. The installation and calibration tool 6 includes a limiting portion 61 and an indicating portion 62 connected to each other. In this embodiment, the limiting portion 61 has a limiting hole 611, the shape of which is adapted to the shape of the snap-fit ​​structure 111, allowing the installation and calibration tool 6 to be oriented onto the snap-fit ​​structure 111 of the mounting base 1. The indicating portion 62 has direction indicator marks 621 and 622, which, for example, indicate the forward direction. The direction indicator marks include an arrow 621 and indicator text 622. The installation and calibration tool 6 is used to ensure the accuracy of the installation direction during the installation of the faucet mounting structure 100, and to ensure that the faucet direction is not deviated when installing the faucet after the faucet mounting structure 100 is installed. This prevents the need to return and adjust the position of the faucet mounting structure 100 if the faucet is found to be deviated after installation, thus avoiding cumbersome installation procedures and improving installation convenience.

[0036] The installation and correction tool 6 can be made by die-cutting from cardboard. It is simple and convenient to use, environmentally friendly and recyclable, and saves costs.

[0037] Example 2 See Figures 11-18 The main difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the structure of the mounting base 1a and the sleeve 2a is different from that in embodiment 1, and the snap ring 5a is used instead of the anti-detachment cap 5 in embodiment 1. The rest is the same as in embodiment 1.

[0038] This embodiment provides a faucet mounting structure 100a for installation on a panel 300 with mounting holes 301 in a sink or basin. The structure includes a mounting base 1a, a sleeve 2a, a bolt 3, mounting claws 4, a retaining spring 5a, and a sealing ring 6. The mounting base 1a is adapted to be installed above the panel 300 and for connection with the faucet 200. The sleeve 2a is designed to extend through the mounting holes 301 in the panel 300.

[0039] Reference Figures 11-16 The mounting base 1a includes an annular body 11 with a main channel 12 within it. The main channel 12 allows for the passage of a faucet connecting hose and an inlet nut, among other structures. The annular body 11 includes a circumferentially extending main sidewall 112, the lower part of which has a snap-fit ​​structure 111. (Refer to...) Figure 16 The lower end of the mounting base 1a is recessed with a limiting mounting groove 16.

[0040] The sleeve 2a includes a sleeve body 21a, which is a hollow cylindrical structure extending axially. The upper end of the sleeve body 21a has a limiting flange 25a. The sleeve 2a is positioned and installed on the panel 300 via the limiting flange 25a, and the limiting flange 25a is fitted into the limiting mounting groove 16, thus allowing the mounting base 1a to be sleeved on the sleeve 2a. The lower diameter of the sleeve body 21a is smaller than the mounting hole 300 of the sink or basin, allowing the lower part of the sleeve 2a to pass through the mounting hole 300 and into the underside of the sink or basin. The sleeve 2a provides guidance and limitation for the installation of the mounting base 1a relative to the mounting hole 300 of the sink or basin. The sleeve channel 27 in the middle of the sleeve body 21a can also be used to pass through structures such as the faucet connecting hose and the inlet nut. A sealing ring 6 is provided between the lower end face of the limiting flange 25a and the panel 300, thereby improving the sealing performance between the faucet mounting structure 100a and the panel 300.

[0041] Reference Figures 11-14 as well as Figure 18 The sleeve 2a has multiple elastic structures 24 on its cylindrical side wall, and there can be more than two elastic structures 24. The elastic structures 24 can abut against the inner wall of the mounting hole 300 of the sink or basin, so that the sleeve 2a can adapt to different mounting hole sizes, making installation more convenient.

[0042] Multiple elastic structures 24 are evenly distributed circumferentially along the side wall of the sleeve 2a, or multiple elastic structures 24 are symmetrically distributed with respect to the center of the sleeve 2a. In this embodiment, three elastic structures 24 are provided on the side wall of the sleeve 2a. In this embodiment, the three elastic structures 24 are evenly distributed circumferentially along the side wall of the sleeve 2a, so that the sleeve 2a is positioned at the center of the mounting hole 300 by the abutment between the elastic structures 24 and the inner wall of the mounting hole 300. Therefore, the faucet mounting structure 100a is positioned more accurately and installed more reliably, and the sealing ring 6 can achieve a more uniform seal in the circumferential direction, resulting in a better sealing effect.

[0043] Reference Figure 14 The sleeve 2a has a notch 28 on its side wall, which includes an axially extending portion 281 and an opening portion 282. The opening portion 282 is connected to one side of the lower end of the axially extending portion 281. The threaded portion of the bolt 3 is inserted into the axially extending portion 281, and the mounting claw 4 can move upward around the threaded portion of the bolt 3 by means of the limiting edge of the axially extending portion 281. The opening portion 282 can be used for the mounting claw 4, so that the mounting claw 4 can be rotated inward to be accommodated or rotated outward to be opened through the opening portion 282; the edge of the axially extending portion 281 can provide rotational guidance and angular limiting for the inward rotation and outward rotation of the mounting claw 4.

[0044] A retaining ring 5a is also installed at the lower end of the bolt 3. The retaining ring 5a is used to prevent the bolt 3 from being rotated beyond its limit position when the faucet mounting structure 100a is disassembled, which would cause the mounting claw 4 to fall off the bolt 3.

[0045] Reference Figure 14 and Figure 16 The upper end of the sleeve body 21 extends upward beyond the upper end face of the limiting flange 25a, thereby forming a positioning protrusion 29. Multiple positioning protrusions 29 can be provided. The positioning protrusions 29 cooperate with the main body channel 12, thereby making the positioning between the mounting seat 1a and the sleeve 2a more accurate and the installation more stable.

[0046] The positioning protrusion 29 may also be provided with a hook (not shown), and the mounting base 1a is provided with a groove (not shown) that mates with the hook. The sleeve 2a and the mounting base 1a are pre-fixed together by the engaging structure of the hook and the groove. However, the method of pre-fixing the sleeve 2a and the mounting base 1a is not limited to this. In some other embodiments, the two can also be pre-fixed together by screws or other means. The pre-fixed connection of the sleeve 2a and the mounting base 1a can prevent the sleeve 2a and the mounting base 1a from separating due to vibration during transportation.

[0047] Although the invention has been specifically shown and described in conjunction with preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes in form and detail may be made to the invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims, all of which shall be within the scope of protection of the invention.
