Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a faucet and a disassembly and assembly structure thereof. Background Art

[0002] Conventional faucets are usually installed under the countertop, so professionals need to bend over, squat or lie under the dark and narrow basin for a long time, and use a variety of special tools to complete the installation. This installation method that requires assembly and locking under the countertop is time-consuming and laborious for faucet installers.

[0003] There is a quick installation mechanism for faucet countertops on the market, which includes a mounting seat, a screw, a nut, a lifting seat that rises and falls with the relative rotation of the screw and the nut, and two lever rotating arms; the mounting seat is provided with a mounting hole, the screw is arranged on one side of the mounting hole; the two lever rotating arms are pivotally connected to the lifting seat. This method of installing the faucet from above the countertop not only makes the faucet assembly simple, but also does not require the structure of the faucet itself, so it can be used for faucets of various structures. Moreover, it only uses a single screw, which occupies the minimum space of the countertop mounting hole, so that the faucet hose can pass smoothly. This mechanism can not only realize the installation of the faucet on the countertop, but also can be used for faucets of various styles, and can provide a sufficiently large installation space. It has the advantages of simple structure, reliability, small installation space occupied, and low cost.

[0025] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0026] See also Figure 1-Figure 5A faucet includes a fixing assembly and a faucet body 2. The fixing assembly is suitable for being fixedly arranged on a countertop, and includes a seat body 11 and a fixing member 12 connected to the bottom of the seat body 11. The seat body 11 is used to be placed above the countertop, and the fixing member 12 passes through the mounting hole of the countertop. The fixing member 12 can be a threaded tube or a quick-release module. The quick-release module is a conventional bolt threaded seat structure, which will not be described in detail here.

[0027] The seat body 11 is cylindrical, and includes an inner wall and an outer wall. The outer wall of the seat body 11 forms an annular groove 111. The faucet also includes a bushing 3 sleeved on the annular groove 111, and the bushing 3 is a C-shaped snap ring. The outer wall of the bushing 3 forms an interference rib 31. In this embodiment, the interference rib 31 extends along the axial direction of the seat body 11, and the outer wall of the bushing 3 is evenly spaced along the circumferential direction. The outer wall of the seat body 11 includes one or more first splines 112.

[0028] The faucet body 2 is a three-way pipe structure. A set of holes 21 are formed at the lower end of the faucet body 2, and one or more second splines 22 are formed on the inner side wall of the set of holes 21. The set of holes 21 can be sleeved on the outer side wall of the seat body 11, and the second splines 22 match the first splines 112 to orient the position of the faucet body 2 relative to the countertop. The faucet body 2 and the seat body 11 are sleeved by interference fit through the interference ribs 31. The first splines 112 and the second splines 22 are meshed and matched, which can reduce the shaking between the seat body 11 and the faucet body 2, and the shaking between the two can be made smaller through the cooperation of the interference ribs 31.

[0029] In this embodiment, the seat body 11 includes a plurality of first splines 112, which are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the seat body 11; the faucet body 2 includes a plurality of second splines 22, which are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the seat body 11; wherein at least two of the first splines 112 are asymmetrically distributed along the two sides of the seat body 11. More specifically, the seat body 11 includes two first splines 112, and the faucet body 2 includes two second splines 22, which are asymmetrically distributed along the left and right sides of the seat body 11, that is, the line connecting the two first splines 112 does not pass through the center of the seat body 11, so that the two second splines 22 and the two first splines 112 have a unique orientation in the circumferential direction of the seat body 11, so that the faucet body 2 has a unique orientation in the circumferential direction.

[0030] In this embodiment, the first spline 112 is an external spline, and the second spline 22 is an internal spline. The first spline 112 is disposed at the upper end of the outer side wall of the seat body 11, and the second spline 22 is disposed at the inner side wall of the faucet body 2. The seat body 11 is provided with an upwardly protruding guide block 113, and the faucet body 2 is provided with an upwardly recessed guide groove 23. When the faucet body 2 is downwardly sleeved on the seat body 11, the guide block 113 is guided and connected with the guide groove 23 so that the second spline 22 is aligned with the first spline 112. In this embodiment, the guide block 113 is disposed at the upper end of the first spline 112, and the guide groove 23 is disposed at the lower end of the second spline 22. When the faucet body 2 is downwardly sleeved on the seat body 11, the guide block 113 corresponds to the guide groove 23 to deflect the faucet body 2 so that the faucet body 2 is aligned with the seat body 11. The guide block 113 is triangular, and the guide groove 23 is also triangular.

[0031] In this embodiment, the interference rib 31 abuts against the inner wall of the faucet body 2 .

[0032] The inner wall of the faucet body 2 is also provided with a groove 24, and the groove 24 is also provided with inclined surfaces 241 on both sides along the axial direction of the faucet body 2. The outer wall of the seat body 11 is also provided with a first sealing ring 4. When the faucet body 2 is sleeved on the outside of the seat body 11, the first sealing ring 4 is embedded in the groove 24. When the faucet body 2 is sleeved on the seat body 11, the cooperation between the first sealing ring 4 and the groove 24 can limit the faucet body 2 in the axial direction.

[0033] In this embodiment, the first sealing ring 4 is disposed close to the table, and the first spline 112 is disposed away from the table. Therefore, when the faucet body 2 is installed on the seat body 11, the first spline 112 and the second spline 22 are connected first, and the first sealing ring 4 is then embedded in the groove 24.

[0034] The faucet further includes a second sealing ring 5 sleeved on the outside of the seat body 11, and the second sealing ring 5 abuts against the inner side wall of the faucet body 2. The second sealing ring 5 can play a role in adjusting the installation feel.

[0035] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the utility model, but the design concept of the utility model is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field who uses this concept to make non-substantial changes to the utility model within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model shall be deemed to infringe the protection scope of the utility model.
