[0020] To make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. The components of the embodiments of the present application usually described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the application claimed for protection, but merely represents the selected embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative work belong to the scope of protection of the present application.
[0021] This embodiment provides a faucet that is convenient for cleaning the handle. Figure 1 , including: a faucet body 1, a water outlet pipe 2 and a switch 3, the switch 3 is used to control the opening and closing of the water flow. The existing switch 3 is usually made into an integrated type. In daily use, when the hand is operating the faucet switch 3, the water flow is turned on and off by turning the handle 5 outward. After the hand contacts the handle 5, it is inevitable that dirt or bacteria on the hand will remain on the handle 5. Especially in high-risk periods such as epidemics, infection protection is particularly important. Multiple people use it alternately, which may cause bacteria to be indirectly transmitted from the handle 5, leading to cross infection. In view of the above situation, the existing integrated switch 3 structure cannot disassemble the handle 5, so it is inconvenient to clean and disinfect the handle 5 separately.
[0022] In view of the above technical problems, the switch 3 is improved in the technical solution. Figure 2 , the existing integrated switch 3 structure is improved to a split structure, and the connection relationship between the handle 5 and the switch body 4 is optimized, and the design is plug-in, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly, and the handle 5 can be disassembled and sterilized separately to avoid cross infection during the high-risk period of the epidemic; further, a magnetic suction component is provided at the connection to enhance the stability of the connection. Through this improvement, users can more conveniently clean the handle 5, reduce bacterial growth, and reduce the risk of cross infection, especially in special periods such as epidemics, with higher practicality and safety.
[0023] In a specific embodiment, the switch 3 includes a switch body 4 and a handle 5, wherein the switch body 4 and the handle 5 are detachably connected, and a vertical mounting hole 6 for mounting the handle 5 is provided on the switch body 4, wherein the mounting hole 6, the bottom of the handle 5 is directly inserted into the mounting hole 6, and a magnetic component is provided at the connection between the bottom side of the handle 5 and the mounting hole 6 and at the connection between the handle 5 and the top of the mounting hole 6. Through the above, this design allows the handle 5 to be easily plugged and unplugged and installed on the switch body 4, and the connection stability is enhanced by the magnetic component at the connection. When the handle 5 is inserted into the mounting hole 6, the magnetic components will be adsorbed together to ensure that the handle 5 is firmly fixed on the switch body 4. At the same time, this also allows the handle 5 to be easily disassembled, which is convenient for cleaning and disinfection. It effectively solves the problem that the handle 5 of the traditional faucet is difficult to clean, improves the cleanliness and hygiene of the faucet, and reduces the risk of cross infection.
[0024] In a further embodiment, the magnetic attraction component includes a first magnetic attraction component 7 at the connection between the bottom side of the handle 5 and the mounting hole 6, and a second magnetic attraction component 8 at the connection between the handle 5 and the top of the mounting hole 6. The first magnetic attraction component 7 is a magnetic attraction sheet, which is installed at the bottom of the handle 5 and has the same shape as the handle 5. The magnetic attraction sheet is usually sheet-shaped and fixedly connected to the handle 5. It can be magnetically connected with the magnetic attraction component at the bottom of the mounting hole 6, thereby enhancing the stability of the handle 5; the second magnetic attraction component 8 is a magnetic attraction ring, which is installed outside the circumference of the handle 5. The spacing between the second magnetic attraction component 8 and the first magnetic attraction component 7 is exactly equal to the depth of the mounting hole 6, so as to ensure that the magnetic attraction ring can just contact and attract with the upper end surface of the mounting hole 6, thereby enhancing the stability of the handle 5. Through this design, when the handle 5 is inserted into the mounting hole 6, the first magnetic attraction component 7 and the magnetic attraction component at the bottom of the mounting hole 6 will be attracted together, and the second magnetic attraction component 8 and the magnetic attraction component at the top of the mounting hole 6 will be attracted together, so that the handle 5 is firmly fixed on the switch body 4. This magnetic connection method not only ensures the firmness of the connection, but also keeps the handle 5 easy to plug and unplug, making it convenient for cleaning and disinfection.
[0025] In a specific embodiment, the mounting hole 6 extends downward and is provided with a drainage hole 9. The other end of the drainage hole 9 runs through the entire switch body 4. The purpose of this design is that when the handle 5 is cleaned, moisture may remain on its surface. When the handle 5 is inserted into the mounting hole 6, the moisture on the surface can be discharged through the drainage hole 9, thereby preventing moisture from being retained inside the mounting hole 6, reducing the internal humid environment, and reducing the risk of rust. This design can effectively protect the structure of the switch body 4 and the handle 5, extend their service life, and improve the cleanliness and hygiene of the overall faucet. Through the provision of the drainage hole 9, the interior of the faucet can promptly remove residual moisture, reducing the possibility of bacterial growth, thereby better protecting the health and safety of users.
[0026] In an alternative embodiment, see Figure 3-5 The cross-sectional shape of the handle 5 may be diverse, including but not limited to a regular quadrilateral, a regular pentagon, a regular hexagon or a circle. These handles 5 of different shapes can be selected according to the user's preferences and actual needs. The regular quadrilateral handle 5 may provide a more convenient grip, allowing the user to rotate the switch 3 more easily. The regular pentagon or regular hexagon handle 5 may increase the stability of the grip, making the switch 3 more comfortable to operate. The round handle 5 may be more ergonomic, more natural to hold, and also have good operability when rotating. Regardless of the shape of the handle 5, it can be combined with other design features in the technical solution to achieve a faucet switch 3 that is easy to clean and easy to disassemble, thereby improving the user's experience and hygiene safety.
[0027] In an optional embodiment, the switch body 4 and the handle 5 are both made of metal to ensure that they can effectively interact with the magnetic attraction component. In this case, the preferred material is stainless steel.
[0028] Stainless steel has the advantages of corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, and high strength, and is suitable for use in environments that are often in contact with water, such as faucets. Using stainless steel materials to make the switch body 4 and the handle 5 can ensure that they have good durability and stability. At the same time, metal structural parts are also more likely to interact with magnetic components, thereby ensuring that the handle 5 can be firmly fixed on the switch body 4.
[0029] Therefore, in this optional embodiment, selecting stainless steel as the material of the switch body 4 and the handle 5 is an ideal choice, which can provide good functionality and durability while meeting the needs of cleanliness and hygiene.
[0030] In an optional embodiment, an antibacterial coating is provided on the switch body and the handle surface.
[0031] Specifically, the antibacterial coating includes but is not limited to the use of graphene or nanosilver particle coatings, which have excellent antibacterial and antiviral properties and can destroy bacterial cell membranes, proteins and nucleic acids, thereby inhibiting bacterial growth and reproduction. This antibacterial property is effective against various bacteria, fungi and other microorganisms, and can also interfere with the life cycle of viruses, thereby slowing down or preventing the spread of viruses.
[0032] As described above, the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the utility model, rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments can still be modified, or some of the technical features can be replaced by equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the utility model.
