DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0035] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0036] See also Figure 1-6 The utility model provides a technical solution: a clip-on faucet antifreeze device, comprising a faucet body 1, and also comprising:

[0037] The heating unit 2 is arranged at the water outlet of the faucet body 1 through the mounting unit 4;

[0038] The clamp ring 3 is fixedly arranged on the outer ring of the outlet of the faucet body 1 to cooperate with the mounting unit 4 to mount the heating unit 2 on the faucet body 1;

[0039] Wherein, the heating unit 2 comprises:

[0040] The heating metal tube 21 is sleeved on the faucet body 1 at the water outlet of the faucet body 1, and the mounting unit 4 is arranged on the heating metal tube 21. The heating metal tube 21 can realize its own heating by resistive heating or microwave heating. At the same time, the inner wall of the heating metal tube 21 is coated with insulating non-metallic material to be insulated from the faucet body 1.

[0041] The insulation sleeve 22 is sleeved on the faucet body 1 . One end of the insulation sleeve 22 is fixedly disposed on the heating metal tube 21 , and the other end is provided with a binding portion 23 so that the end of the insulation sleeve 22 is sealed on the faucet body 1 .

[0042] Wherein, the installation unit 4 comprises:

[0043] A plurality of through holes 41 are arranged in an array on the heating metal tube 21 near the water outlet end of the faucet body 1;

[0044] A plurality of sliding shafts 42 are slidably disposed on the through hole 41, with two ends thereof respectively disposed on the inner and outer sides of the heating metal tube 21, and a ball 43 is fixedly disposed on both ends of the sliding shaft 42;

[0045] The elastic member 44 is disposed between the inner sphere 43 and the sliding shaft 42 to provide an inward force to the inner sphere 43, so that after the heating metal tube 21 is inserted into the faucet body 1, the inner sphere 43 pops out under the action of the elastic member 44 and is mounted on the upper end of the clamping ring 3, so that the heating metal tube 21 is sleeved on the faucet body 1, and the inner and outer spheres 43 play a role of sliding limit;

[0046] The pressing portion 45 is disposed between the multiple sliding shafts 42 and the heating metal tube 21, and is used to drive the multiple sliding shafts 42 to slide synchronously so that the sliding shafts 42 slide outward, thereby releasing the limiting arrangement of the ball 43 and the clamping ring 3 located on the inner side, so that the heating metal tube 21 can be quickly removed from the faucet body 1.

[0047] In addition, the elastic member 44 includes:

[0048] The limiting piece 441 is fixedly disposed on the through hole 41;

[0049] The limit spring 442 is sleeved on the sliding shaft 42 , and two ends of the limit spring 442 are respectively in contact with the ball 43 and the limit sheet 441 located on the inner side to provide sliding power for the sliding shaft 42 .

[0050] Meanwhile, the pressing portion 45 includes:

[0051] A connecting rod 451, one end of which is rotatably arranged on the outer end of the sliding shaft 42, and the other end of which is provided with a connecting shaft 454;

[0052] The slide rail 452 is provided on the outer wall of the heating metal tube 21 and is used for the connecting shaft 454 to slide up and down;

[0053] The pressing ring 453 is sleeved on the heating metal tube 21 and is rotatably arranged through the connecting plate 455 and each connecting shaft 454;

[0054] When the pressing ring 453 is pressed down, it will drive the connecting shaft 454 to slide downward in the slide rail 452, thereby changing the angle of the connecting rod 451 to push the sliding shaft 42 to slide outward, thereby contacting the limiting effect of the ball 43 and the clamping ring 3 at the inner end, so that the heating metal tube 21 can be pulled out from the faucet body 1. At this time, the limiting spring 442 is in a compressed state. During installation, press the pressing ring 453 downward at the same time, then put the heating metal tube 21 on, and then release the pressing ring 453. Under the resetting action of the limiting spring 442, the sliding shaft 42 can be pushed to slide inward, so that the ball 43 and the clamping ring 3 at the inner end are limited and stuck.

[0055] The insulation sleeve 22 is configured as a telescopic tube, so that the insulation sleeve 22 can be stretched to a suitable length according to the model of the faucet body 1 and then tied by the binding part 23 .

[0056] Finally, the binding part 23 is configured as a binding belt 231, which is soft and flat, and has a plurality of binding holes 232 evenly arranged at one end, and a binding column 233 matching the binding holes 232 is arranged at the other end, so that a heat insulation layer is formed between the insulation sleeve 22 and the outer wall of the faucet body 1;

[0057] When in use, the insulation sleeve 22 is stretched onto the faucet body 1, and then its end is fixed by the binding band 231. At this time, the space between the insulation sleeve 22 and the outer wall of the faucet body 1 forms an insulation layer, so that when the heating metal tube 21 heats the faucet body 1, the excess heat will be dissipated into the insulation layer, so that the energy can be effectively utilized, and the faucet body 1 can be better heated.

[0058] During actual use, a thermometer can be installed at the faucet to monitor the temperature there in real time, thereby controlling the switch of the heating unit 2. At the same time, the setting of the insulation layer can keep the faucet body 1 warm for a period of time when the heating unit 2 stops working to prevent freezing.

[0059] It should be noted that, in this article, relational terms such as first and second, etc. are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "include", "comprise" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device.

[0060] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
