Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a shower, in particular to a concealed shower controller. Background Art

[0002] Concealed shower controllers are used for embedded parts of water nodes, circuit nodes, gas nodes, etc. Among them, concealed shower controllers for water nodes are divided into pre-installation and post-installation. Pre-installation means that the concealed shower controller is embedded and then poured; post-installation means that after the wall construction is completed, the embedded holes are cut according to the preset position, and then the concealed shower controller is placed. The existing wall is basically built with brick walls, so the installation of concealed shower controllers mostly adopts the post-installation method.

[0003] After the existing concealed shower controller at the water node is connected to the pipeline, a button-type valve body is usually installed to control the water flow conduction state of the water pipeline. In order to maintain the appearance and protect the valve body, a key cover plate in contact with the button is usually set on the outside.

[0004] The thickness of the existing wall is uneven when it is erected. When cutting the embedded holes, it is difficult to unify the depth of the embedded grooves. There is a fixed installation spacing between the key cover plate and the buttons of the push-button valve body. Due to the non-fixed installation depth of the concealed shower controller, the exposed length of the buttons of the push-button valve body is uncertain. If the button length is shorter than the preset length, the button cannot be controlled during the subsequent installation of the outer cover corresponding to the button. If the button length exceeds the preset length, it can be cut, but if the cutting is inappropriate, it is easy to be too short and a new valve body button needs to be replaced again for matching adjustment, which takes a lot of time.

[0019] The utility model provides an installation jig for concealed shower controller, which can realize three functions of marking, cutting and adjusting the height of valve core nut of the top rod, thus greatly facilitating the installation of concealed shower controller.

[0020] When marking the ejector rod, as long as the through slot of the fixture body passes through the body, the first limit surface of the fixture body is abutted against the installation wall. At this time, the part of the ejector rod exposed outside the through slot can be determined as the part that needs to be cut. The ejector rod can be marked at the through slot with a pen, so as to mark the part that needs to be cut. When cutting the part of the ejector rod that needs to be cut, the ejector rod is pulled out and inserted into the hexagonal joint of the tooling, and in order to prevent the ejector rod from moving back and forth during the cutting process, the ejector rod and the fixture body are hung and fixed together with a hanging piece, and then the excess part of the ejector rod is cut off with a cutting tool according to the marked position.

[0033] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model; it is obvious that the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all of the embodiments, and all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the utility model without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0034] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "inner", "outer", "top / bottom" and the like indicate positions or positional relationships based on the positions or positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific position, be constructed and operated in a specific position, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present invention. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0035] In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly stipulated and limited, the terms "installed", "provided with", "installed / connected", "connected", etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "connection" can be a wall-mounted connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection. It can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection. It can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. It can be the internal connection of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0036] refer to Figure 1-Figure 14This embodiment provides a concealed shower controller installation fixture. This embodiment takes a press-operated concealed shower controller control box as an example. When installing this type of shower control box, it is necessary to adjust the length of the valve body's top rod and the installation height of the valve core nut, so that after the button is finally installed, the button can be flush with the panel on which the shower control box is installed, which is more beautiful.

[0037] To this end, the above-mentioned installation jig includes a jig body 1, a push rod to-be-cut portion identification component set on the jig body 1, and a valve core nut height adjustment component; the push rod to-be-cut portion identification component can help the installer identify the excess portion on the push rod and mark it. In this way, there will be clear markings for subsequent cutting. The valve core nut height adjustment component can facilitate the staff to adjust the valve core nut to a suitable height, so that after the button is installed, the button can be flush with the panel.

[0038] Specifically, the identification component of the part of the top rod to be cut has a through slot 11 for the top rod 21 of the concealed shower controller 2 to pass through, and the fixture body 1 has a first limiting surface 13 that matches the installation wall. When the first limiting surface 13 abuts against the installation wall, the part of the top rod 21 exposed outside the through slot 11 is the part of the top rod 21 to be cut;

[0039] When marking the push rod 21, as long as the through slot 11 of the fixture body 1 passes through the body, the first limiting surface 13 of the fixture body 1 is abutted against the installation wall, and the part of the push rod 21 exposed outside the through slot 11 can be determined as the part to be cut. The push rod 21 can be marked at the through slot 11 with a pen, so as to mark the part to be cut.

[0040] After marking the portion of the push rod 21 that needs to be cut, the push rod 21 needs to be cut, and the push rod 21 needs to be fixed during cutting to ensure that no deviation occurs during cutting. It is not very convenient if the installer needs to find another tool to fix the push rod 21. For this reason, the installation fixture in this embodiment also includes a push rod fixing assembly 14, which is used to fix the push rod 21 on the fixture body 1.

[0041] During the cutting process, whether the push rod 21 rotates around the axis or translates along the axis, it will affect the cutting accuracy, so it is necessary to limit the push rod 21 in both directions. Therefore, the push rod fixing assembly 14 includes a first limiter that forms a limit fit with the push rod 21 around the push rod axis, and a second limiter that forms a limit fit with the push rod 21 along the push rod axis.

[0042] Specifically, the first limiting member is a hexagonal positioning column 141, and the second limiting member is a hanging member 142; the hanging member 142 is divided into a hook portion 1421 that is hung with the fixture body 1, and an insert portion 1422 that is inserted into the slot 211 on the top rod 21. The hexagonal positioning column 141 can limit the top rod 21 in the axial direction by using the hexagonal edges. The hanging member 142 uses the slot 211 that the top rod 21 has during the molding process, inserts the insert portion 14222 into the slot 211, and then hangs the hook portion 1421 and the fixture body 1 together, so that the top rod 21 can be limited in the axial direction, thereby limiting the top rod 21 in both directions, ensuring that the top rod 21 can always be in a fixed position during the process of cutting the top rod 21 by the installer, and will not shake or move, thereby ensuring the cutting accuracy. The hexagonal positioning column 141 may also be in other shapes, such as a polygonal shape such as a triangle, a quadrilateral, and a pentagon, which matches the inner hole shape of the push rod 21 to limit its axial and circumferential movement.

[0043] It should be noted that the installation jig of this embodiment does not rely on the embedded depth of the concealed shower controller 2 when marking the part where the top rod 21 needs to be cut. Whether the embedded depth is 86 mm or 106 mm, the top rod 21 can be marked by the installation jig. The embedded depths of 86 mm and 106 mm are just examples listed in the embodiment. When the embedded depth of the actual concealed shower controller is other depths, the installation jig can be used for marking and cutting.

[0044] For the concealed shower controller with press-type operation, it is necessary to add the valve core nut 22 and the button 23 after the concealed shower controller 2 is installed. The installation height of the valve core nut 22 determines the installation position of the button 23. For aesthetic considerations, the button 23 is preferably flush with the panel 24 of the concealed shower controller 2 when it is not pressed. This requires the valve core nut 22 to be at a relatively suitable height to achieve. In this step of the traditional concealed shower controller 2, it can only be adjusted by repeatedly disassembling and assembling the button 23, the panel 24 and adjusting the height of the valve core nut 22 to finally get a better effect. The whole process is very cumbersome. In this embodiment, the valve core nut height adjustment component solves this problem. The valve core nut height adjustment component includes a second limit surface 12 for limiting the installation height of the nut, and a clearance opening for operating the nut from the side of the fixture body 1 away from the installation wall; when the first limit surface 13 abuts against the installation wall, the distance between the second limit surface 12 and the valve core end face is the installation height of the valve core nut 22. When adjusting the height of the valve core nut 22, after the concealed shower controller 2 is buried in the wall and fixed, the first limit surface 13 of the fixture body 1 is abutted against the installation wall, and the valve core nut 22 can be rotated by using a tool to pass through the clearance opening. When the valve core nut 22 abuts against the second limit surface 12, the height of the valve core nut 22 is appropriate, and the panel 24 can be installed. After the panel 24 is installed, the button 23 can be pressed to be flush with the panel 24.

[0045] In this embodiment, in order to reduce the number of openings on the fixture body 1, the second limiting surface 12 is arranged on the side of the fixture body 1 facing the installation wall, and is located at the periphery of the through slot 11, so that the through slot 11 is reused as the clearance opening. Specifically, the second limiting surface 12 is connected to the opening surface of the through slot 11, and the second limiting surface 12 expands radially outward relative to the through slot 11.

[0046] For concealed shower controller 2, there is usually more than one valve core, so more than one button 23 is needed. Therefore, when adjusting the height of the valve core nut 22 on one of the valve cores, it is also necessary to avoid the other valve cores. Therefore, it also includes a valve core yielding assembly 15 arranged on the fixture body 1; when the valve core nut height adjustment assembly adjusts the nut installation height of one of the valve cores, the valve core yielding assembly cooperates with the yielding of other valve cores.

[0047] Specifically, the valve core position-release assembly 15 is an opening 151 for the valve core to pass through, and the edge of the opening 151 is provided with the third position-limiting surface 152 along the circumferential direction. The third position-limiting surface 152 is provided because if the valve core that cooperates with the valve core position-release assembly has already adjusted the height of the valve core nut 22, then the valve core does not need to pass through the opening 151, so the third position-limiting surface 152 is provided to cooperate with the valve core nut 22 that has already adjusted its height.

[0048] In this embodiment, a reverse support structure is also provided, and the mounting fixture body 1 extends a circle of bosses 16 along the thickness direction of the mounting fixture body 1 on the outside of the clearance opening 151, and when the first limiting surface 13 abuts against the mounting wall, the bosses 16 extend into the concealed shower controller 2 and abut against it.

[0049] The above-mentioned installation fixture can be widely used in various concealed shower controllers 2, regardless of the embedded depth of the control box of the concealed shower controller 2, and can play a good auxiliary role in the installation of the concealed shower control box. The panel 24 can be a square panel, a circular panel, etc., and the technical solution of the utility model is not limited.

[0050] The concealed shower controller 2 may further include: a water outlet terminal, which may be a hand-held shower, a single-function overhead shower, a dual-function and multi-function overhead shower, a bathtub faucet, a bottom water outlet and a shower seat outlet, or a combination of more than one of the following; the shower controller may further include a water mixing valve core, one or more key switch valve cores or a key switch rotary flow regulating valve core, and each key switch valve core or key switch rotary flow regulating valve core may be used to independently control the opening and closing of the waterway of each water outlet terminal, such as Fig.13 The key switch is used to rotate the flow control valve core. Fig.14 The specific structure of the key switch valve core, the key switch valve core or the key switch rotary flow regulating valve core can be found in the contents disclosed in CN212643697U and CN213145362U, which will not be described in detail here.

[0051] In summary, the installation of the concealed shower controller 2 using the above-mentioned installation fixture includes the following steps:

[0052] 1) Fix the concealed shower controller 2 in the installation wall;

[0053] 2) Pass the through slot 11 of the installation fixture through the top rod 21 of the concealed shower controller 2 until the first limiting surface 13 of the body 1 of the installation fixture abuts against the installation wall, and mark the portion of the top rod 21 exposed outside the through slot 11 as the portion to be cut of the top rod 21;

[0054] 3) Cutting off the portion of the push rod 21 to be cut; specifically, the push rod 21 is taken out of the through groove 11, and then the end of the push rod 21 connected to the valve core is inserted into the hexagonal positioning column 141, and then the insertion portion 1421 of the hanging member 142 is inserted into the slot 211 of the push rod 21, and the hanging portion 1422 of the hanging member 142 is connected to the main body 1 of the mounting fixture; after the push rod 2 is fixed, the push rod 21 can be cut.

[0055] 4) The first limiting surface 13 of the installation fixture body 1 is brought into contact with the installation wall, and the valve core nut 22 of the concealed shower is operated through the opening until the valve core nut 22 moves to abut against the second limiting surface 12 of the installation fixture body 1 .

[0056] 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.
