Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of household appliances, and in particular to a drinking water device. Background Art

[0002] The drinking water device includes a water outlet assembly, and the user can place a water cup under the water outlet assembly to receive the liquid flowing out of the water outlet assembly. In the prior art, the height of the water outlet assembly is fixed, but the water output of the drinking water device is dynamically adjusted according to the water temperature. If the water volume is small or the height of the cup is low, the liquid will splash out of the cup, which may easily scald the user. Utility Model Content

[0003] The present application provides a drinking water device, which can achieve height adjustment of a water outlet assembly, thereby solving the problem in the prior art that liquid is easily splashed when the water outlet assembly outlets water.

[0004] The present application provides a drinking water device, comprising:

[0005] main body;

[0006] A limiting plate, fixedly mounted on the main body;

[0007] A water outlet assembly, movably mounted on the main body;

[0008] an elastic member, mounted on the water outlet assembly, the elastic member being used to unlock with the limit plate when being compressed and deformed in the radial direction of the main body, so that the water outlet assembly is in a moving state along the height direction of the main body;

[0009] The elastic member is also used to lock with the limit plate when resetting along the radial direction of the main body, so that the water outlet assembly is in a stationary state along the height direction of the main body.

[0010] In the above scheme, along the radial direction of the main body, the elastic member is located between the water outlet assembly and the limiting plate. When the elastic member is in the initial state, the limiting plate can limit the elastic member in the height direction of the main body, so that the elastic member and the limiting plate are locked, and then the water outlet assembly is in a static state along the height direction of the main body. At this time, the height of the water outlet assembly cannot be adjusted, which can ensure the stability when the water is discharged. When the elastic member is compressed and deformed along the radial direction of the main body, it can gradually move away from the limiting plate until the limiting plate has no limit effect on the elastic member in the height direction of the main body. The elastic member can be unlocked from the limiting plate, so that the water outlet assembly is in a moving state along the height direction of the main body. At this time, the user can freely adjust the height of the water outlet assembly on the main body according to the height of the cup used to collect water or the water output of the water outlet assembly, so as to prevent liquid splashing when the water outlet assembly is discharged, avoid scalding the user, and improve the user's experience. When the water outlet assembly moves to the desired height position, the elastic member can be reset along the radial direction of the main body under the action of its own restoring force, so as to be locked with the limiting plate again, so that the water outlet assembly switches from the moving state to the static state, that is, the water outlet assembly can be adjusted to be in the moving state or the static state by adjusting the state of the elastic member, so that the water outlet assembly can be static at different height positions, thereby ensuring the stability of the water outlet assembly when discharging water at different height positions. Among them, the elastic member can be locked with the limiting plate only when it is fully reset (restored to the initial state), or it can be locked with the limiting plate during the reset process. In addition, the initial state of the elastic member can be a fully extended state or a slightly compressed state. If the initial state of the elastic member is a slightly compressed state, the elastic member can be pressed against the limiting plate along the radial direction of the main body under the action of its own restoring force, thereby improving the connection stability between the two in the locked state.

[0011] The present application sets a structure in which an elastic part and a limit plate cooperate to freely adjust the height of the water outlet assembly, so that users can adjust the height of the water outlet assembly at any time according to the height of the cup and the water output, thereby preventing liquid from splashing onto the table or scalding the user, thereby improving the safety and comfort of the drinking water equipment.

[0012] In a possible design, the limit plate is provided with a plurality of teeth along the height direction of the main body, and a tooth groove is formed between any two adjacent teeth; the tooth groove is used to engage with the elastic member so that the elastic member is locked with the limit plate; the tooth portion is used to drive the elastic member to be compressed and deformed along the radial direction of the main body so that the elastic member is disengaged from the tooth groove and unlocked from the limit plate.

[0013] In the above scheme, when the elastic member is engaged with the tooth groove, the side wall of the tooth groove can limit the movement of the elastic member along the height direction of the main body, so that the elastic member is locked with the limit plate, so that the water outlet assembly is in a static state; when the tooth portion drives the elastic member to be compressed and deformed along the radial direction of the main body, the elastic member can be disengaged from the tooth groove, so that the water outlet assembly is in a moving state. At this time, the water outlet assembly can move freely along the height direction of the main body to adjust the height, and the elastic member can be engaged with the tooth grooves at different heights, so that the water outlet assembly can be in a static state at different heights, thereby improving the stability of the water outlet assembly at each height position.

[0014] In a possible design, along the height direction of the main body, the limit plate is provided with a plurality of ribs protruding toward the water outlet assembly at intervals, and a recess is formed between any two adjacent ribs; the recess is used to engage with the elastic member so that the elastic member is locked with the limit plate; the rib is used to drive the elastic member to compress and deform along the radial direction of the main body so that the elastic member is disengaged from the recess and unlocked from the limit plate.

[0015] In the above scheme, when the elastic member is engaged with the recessed portion, the side wall of the recessed portion can limit the movement of the elastic member along the height direction of the main body, so that the elastic member is locked with the limit plate, so that the water outlet assembly is in a static state; when the ribs drive the elastic member to compress and deform along the radial direction of the main body, the elastic member can be separated from the recessed portion, so that the water outlet assembly is in a moving state. At this time, the water outlet assembly can move freely along the height direction of the main body to adjust the height, and the elastic member can be engaged with the recessed portions at different heights, so that the water outlet assembly can be in a static state at different heights, thereby improving the stability of the water outlet assembly at each height position.

[0016] In a possible design, the limit plate is provided with a limit portion, and the surface of the limit portion on one side facing the elastic member is a rough surface, and the rough surface is used to cooperate with the elastic member in a limit position along the height direction of the main body so that the elastic member is locked with the limit plate; the rough surface is also used to release the limit position with the elastic member along the height direction of the main body so that the elastic member is unlocked from the limit plate.

[0017] In the above scheme, the rough surface has a large friction force. When the elastic member abuts against the rough surface along the radial direction of the main body, there is a large friction force between the elastic member and the limit plate in the height direction of the main body. The limit plate can limit the movement of the elastic member relative to the limit portion along the height direction of the main body, so that the elastic member and the limit plate are locked, so that the water outlet assembly is in a static state; when the elastic member is compressed and deformed along the radial direction of the main body, it can move away from the rough surface, reduce the friction force between the elastic member and the limit plate in the height direction of the main body, so that the elastic member and the limit plate are released from the limit, so that the water outlet assembly is in a moving state. At this time, the water outlet assembly can move freely along the height direction of the main body to adjust the height, and the elastic member can cooperate with the rough surface limit at different heights, so that the water outlet assembly can be in a static state at different heights, thereby improving the stability of the water outlet assembly at each height position.

[0018] In a possible design, the elastic member is a spring sheet, and along the radial direction of the main body, at least a portion of the spring sheet is bent toward the limit plate to form a limit fitting portion; the limit fitting portion is used to limit fit with the limit plate along the height direction of the main body so that the elastic member is locked with the limit plate.

[0019] In the above scheme, the limiting fitting part can increase the contact area between the limiting plate and the spring sheet, improve the limiting effect of the limiting plate on the spring sheet, thereby improving the stability of the elastic member and the limiting plate when locked, and then improving the stability of the water outlet assembly when it is in a static state, preventing the water outlet assembly from shaking and affecting the safety of the drinking water equipment; when the elastic member is compressed and deformed along the radial direction of the main body, the limiting fitting part disengages from the limiting of the limiting plate, so that the water outlet assembly is in a moving state.

[0020] In a possible design, the water outlet assembly includes a bracket, which is movably installed in the main body; the bracket is provided with a mounting hole, and along the height direction of the main body, both ends of the spring are respectively fixedly connected to the mounting holes.

[0021] In the above solution, two mounting holes are arranged on the bracket at intervals along the height direction of the main body, and the two ends of the spring piece extend into the two mounting holes respectively to achieve a fixed connection between the spring piece and the bracket, thereby improving the installation stability of the spring piece.

[0022] In a possible design, the main body is provided with a guide groove extending along the height direction of the main body; at least a part of the water outlet assembly is located in the guide groove, and the water outlet assembly is slidably connected to the guide groove.

[0023] In the above scheme, at least part of the water outlet assembly is located in the guide groove, which can guide and limit the movement of the water outlet assembly to prevent the water outlet assembly from shaking during movement along the height direction of the main body, thereby improving the stability of the water outlet assembly in motion.

[0024] In a possible design, the limiting plate is further provided with a sliding fitting portion; along the height direction of the main body, a sliding protrusion is provided at one end of the water outlet assembly away from the elastic member, and the sliding protrusion is slidably connected to the sliding fitting portion.

[0025] In the above scheme, when the water outlet assembly moves along the height direction of the main body, the sliding protrusion can slide along the sliding fitting part to ensure that the water outlet assembly achieves force balance, avoiding shaking of the water outlet assembly during the sliding of the elastic part along the limiting plate, thereby improving the movement stability of the water outlet assembly.

[0026] In a possible design, a surface of one side of the sliding protrusion that contacts the sliding fitting portion is an arc surface.

[0027] In the above solution, the arc surface can reduce the contact area between the sliding protrusion and the sliding matching part, thereby reducing the friction between the two and avoiding hindering the movement of the water outlet component.

[0028] In a possible design, the drinking water equipment also includes a heating device, which is fixedly installed in the main body; the heating device is connected to the water outlet assembly through a hose, and the water in the heating device can flow into the water outlet assembly through the hose.

[0029] In the above solution, the heating device is used to heat the liquid, and the heated liquid can flow into the water outlet assembly along the hose, and then flow to the outside from the water outlet nozzle. Since the hose is highly flexible, when the heating device and the pipe joint of the water outlet assembly are connected through the hose, it is easier to adjust the height of the water outlet assembly without affecting the heating device.

[0030] It should be understood that the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary only and are not restrictive of the present application. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0060] In order to better understand the technical solution of the present application, the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0061] It should be clear that the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0062] The terms used in the embodiments of the present application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments, and are not intended to limit the present application. The singular forms "a", "said" and "the" used in the embodiments of the present application and the appended claims are also intended to include plural forms, unless the context clearly indicates other meanings.

[0063] It should be understood that the term "and / or" used in this article is only a description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, the character " / " in this article generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.

[0064] It should be noted that the directional words such as "upper", "lower", "left", and "right" described in the embodiments of the present application are described at the angles shown in the accompanying drawings and should not be understood as limiting the embodiments of the present application. In addition, in the context, it is also necessary to understand that when it is mentioned that an element is connected to another element "upper" or "lower", it can not only be directly connected to another element "upper" or "lower", but also indirectly connected to another element "upper" or "lower" through an intermediate element.

[0065] The present application embodiment provides a drinking water device, such as Figure 1 As shown, the drinking water device includes a main body 1 and a water outlet assembly 4 movably mounted on the main body 1, the water outlet assembly 4 includes a water outlet 42 and a shell 43, the water outlet 42 is mounted in the shell 43, and the water outlet 42 is connected to the outside, when the user drinks water, the cup can be placed directly below the water outlet 42, and the liquid inside the main body 1 can flow into the cup through the water outlet 42. In addition, the drinking water device can also include a cup tray 2 fixed to the bottom of the main body 1, the cup can be placed on the cup tray 2, and the cup tray 2 can also have a water collection function to prevent the water outlet 42 from leaking and flowing onto the table or the ground.

[0066] like Figure 1As shown, the drinking water device further includes a limit plate 3 fixedly installed in the main body 1 and an elastic member 5 installed on the water outlet assembly 4. The elastic member 5 is used to unlock the limit plate 3 when compressing and deforming along the radial direction X of the main body 1, so that the water outlet assembly 4 is in a moving state along the height direction Z of the main body 1; the elastic member 5 is also used to lock with the limit plate 3 when resetting along the radial direction X of the main body 1, so that the water outlet assembly 4 is in a stationary state along the height direction Z of the main body 1.

[0067] In this embodiment, along the radial direction X of the main body 1, the elastic member 5 is located between the water outlet assembly 4 and the limiting plate 3. Figure 2 As shown, when the elastic member 5 is in the initial state, the limiting plate 3 can limit the elastic member 5 in the height direction Z of the main body 1, so that the elastic member 5 is locked with the limiting plate 3, and then the water outlet assembly 4 is in a stationary state along the height direction Z of the main body 1. At this time, the height of the water outlet assembly 4 cannot be adjusted, which can ensure the stability of water outlet. Figure 3 As shown, when the elastic member 5 is compressed and deformed along the radial direction X of the main body 1, it can gradually move away from the limiting plate 3 until the limiting plate 3 has no limit effect on the elastic member 5 in the height direction Z of the main body 1. The elastic member 5 can be unlocked from the limiting plate 3, so that the water outlet component 4 is in a moving state along the height direction Z of the main body 1. At this time, the user can freely adjust the height of the water outlet component 4 on the main body 1 according to the height of the cup used to collect water or the water output of the water outlet component 4, so as to prevent the water outlet component 4 from splashing liquid when discharging water, avoid scalding the user, and improve the user's experience. When the water outlet component 4 moves to the required height position, the elastic member 5 can be reset along the radial direction X of the main body 1 under the action of its own restoring force, so as to be locked with the limiting plate 3 again, so that the water outlet component 4 switches from the moving state to the static state, that is, the water outlet component 4 can be adjusted to be in a moving state or a static state by adjusting the state of the elastic member 5, so that the water outlet component 4 can be static at different height positions, thereby ensuring the stability of the water outlet component 4 when discharging water at different height positions.

[0068] It should be noted that the elastic member 5 can be locked with the limit plate 3 only when it is completely reset (restored to the initial state), or can be locked with the limit plate 3 during the reset process, and this embodiment does not limit this. In addition, the initial state of the elastic member 5 can be a fully extended state or a slightly compressed state. If the initial state of the elastic member 5 is a slightly compressed state, the elastic member 5 can be pressed against the limit plate 3 along the radial direction X of the main body 1 under the action of its own restoring force, thereby improving the connection stability of the two in the locked state.

[0069] The present application sets a structure in which an elastic member 5 cooperates with a limit plate 3, so that the height of the water outlet assembly 4 can be freely adjusted, so that the user can adjust the height of the water outlet assembly 4 at any time according to the height of the cup and the water output, change the distance between the water outlet spout 42 and the cup, prevent liquid from splashing onto the table or scalding the user, and improve the safety and comfort of the drinking water device.

[0070] In the above structure, if Figure 1 As shown, at least a portion of the shell 43 is exposed outside the main body 1 , and the user can adjust the height of the water outlet assembly 4 by moving the shell 43 up and down to drive the entire water outlet assembly 4 to move.

[0071] like Figure 1 As shown, the drinking water equipment also includes a heating device 6 , which is fixedly installed in the main body 1 . The heating device 6 is connected to the water outlet assembly 4 via a hose 7 , and the water in the heating device 6 can flow into the water outlet assembly 4 via the hose 7 .

[0072] The heating device 6 is used to heat the liquid, and the heated liquid can flow into the water outlet assembly 4 along the hose 7, and then flow to the outside from the water outlet nozzle 42. Since the hose 7 is highly flexible, when the heating device 6 is connected to the pipe joint 45 of the water outlet assembly 4 through the hose 7, it is easier to adjust the height of the water outlet assembly 4 without affecting the heating device 6.

[0073] It should be noted that the positions of the heating device 6 and the water outlet assembly 4 in the height direction Z of the main body 1 and in the radial direction X of the main body 1 need to be staggered to prevent the water outlet assembly 4 from interfering with the heating device 6 when moving downward.

[0074] In this embodiment, the elastic member 5 can be a torsion spring, one end of which is fixedly connected to the water outlet component 4, and the other end is limited by the limiting plate 3. The torsion spring is installed between the water outlet component 4 and the limiting plate 3 along the radial direction X of the main body 1. When the limiting plate 3 limits the torsion spring along the height direction Z of the main body 1, the water outlet component 4 is in a stationary state; when the torsion spring is compressed and deformed toward the water outlet component 4 along the radial direction X of the main body 1, it can break away from the limit of the limiting plate 3, thereby putting the water outlet component 4 in a moving state.

[0075] Or, if Figure 2 As shown, the elastic member 5 can be a spring sheet, and along the radial direction X of the main body 1, at least a portion of the spring sheet is bent toward the limit plate 3 to form a limit fitting portion 51, and the limit fitting portion 51 is used to limit fit with the limit plate 3 along the height direction Z of the main body 1 so that the elastic member 5 is locked with the limit plate 3.

[0076] like Figure 2As shown, the limiting fitting portion 51 can increase the contact area between the limiting plate 3 and the spring sheet, improve the limiting effect of the limiting plate 3 on the spring sheet, thereby improving the stability of the elastic member 5 and the limiting plate 3 when locked, and further improving the stability of the water outlet assembly 4 when it is in a static state, preventing the water outlet assembly 4 from shaking and affecting the safety of the drinking water equipment; when the elastic member 5 is compressed and deformed along the radial direction X of the main body 1, the limiting fitting portion 51 is separated from the limiting of the limiting plate 3, so that the water outlet assembly 4 is in a moving state.

[0077] Below, taking the elastic member 5 as a spring sheet as an example, the structure of the limit plate 3 is described in detail:

[0078] In a first embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, along the height direction Z of the main body 1, the limit plate 3 is provided with a plurality of teeth 31, and a tooth groove 311 is formed between any two adjacent teeth 31, and the tooth groove 311 is used to engage with the elastic member 5 so that the elastic member 5 is locked with the limit plate 3, and the tooth portion 31 is used to drive the elastic member 5 to compress and deform along the radial direction X of the main body 1 so that the elastic member 5 is disengaged from the tooth groove 311 and unlocked from the limit plate 3.

[0079] In this embodiment, the limiting plate 3 has a rack structure, such as Figure 2 As shown, along the height direction Z of the main body 1, the limit plate 3 has a plurality of raised teeth 31, and a tooth groove 311 is formed between two adjacent teeth 31. When the limit fitting portion 51 of the spring piece is engaged with the tooth groove 311, the side wall of the tooth groove 311 (i.e., the tooth portion 31) can limit the movement of the limit fitting portion 51 along the height direction Z of the main body 1, so that the spring piece is locked with the limit plate 3, so that the water outlet component 4 is in a static state; when the tooth portion 31 drives the spring piece to compress and deform along the radial direction X of the main body 1, the limit fitting portion 51 can be separated from the tooth groove 311, so that the water outlet component 4 is in a moving state, and at this time, the water outlet component 4 can move freely along the height direction Z of the main body 1 to adjust the height.

[0080] In this embodiment, the user can switch the static state and the moving state of the water outlet component 4 by moving the shell 43 up and down. For example, when the water outlet component 4 is in the static state, the user drives the water outlet component 4 to move as a whole by moving the shell 43. During this process, the limiting fitting portion 51 slides along the side wall of the tooth groove 311 until it abuts against the tooth portion 31, and can be disengaged from the tooth groove 311 under the squeezing of the tooth portion 31, so that the water outlet component 4 is switched to the moving state. When the user continues to move the water outlet component 4 upward, the limiting fitting portion 51 always slides with the limiting plate 3 until the water outlet component 4 moves to the expected height, and the user stops moving the shell 43. At this time, the limiting fitting portion 51 can be engaged with the tooth groove 311 of the corresponding height under the action of the restoring force of the spring sheet itself, so that the water outlet component 4 is switched back to the static state, thereby completing the height adjustment process of the water outlet component 4, that is, the limiting fitting portion 51 can be engaged with the tooth grooves 311 at different heights to achieve the static state of the water outlet component 4 at different heights.

[0081] It should be noted that the limiting matching portion 51 may be locked with the tooth groove 311 only when the spring piece is completely reset, or it may be locked with the tooth groove 311 during the process of resetting the spring piece, and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0082] In addition, in the above structure, the force required by the user to move the water outlet component 4 can be adjusted by adjusting the width of the tooth groove 311 (ie, the distance between two adjacent teeth 31 ) or the distance between the water outlet component 4 and the limiting plate 3 .

[0083] In a second embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, along the height direction Z of the main body 1, the limit plate 3 is provided with a plurality of ribs 32 protruding toward the water outlet assembly 4 at intervals, and a recessed portion 33 is formed between any two adjacent ribs 32. The recessed portion 33 is used to engage with the elastic member 5 so that the elastic member 5 is locked with the limit plate 3. The ribs 32 are used to drive the elastic member 5 to compress and deform along the radial direction X of the main body 1 so that the elastic member 5 is disengaged from the recessed portion 33 and unlocked from the limit plate 3.

[0084] In this embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, a plurality of ribs 32 are arranged at intervals on the limiting plate 3 to form a plurality of recessed portions 33. When the limiting fitting portion 51 of the spring piece is engaged with the recessed portion 33, the side wall of the recessed portion 33 (i.e., the rib 32) can limit the movement of the limiting fitting portion 51 along the height direction Z of the main body 1, so that the spring piece is locked with the limiting plate 3, so that the water outlet component 4 is in a stationary state; when the rib 32 drives the spring piece to compress and deform along the radial direction X of the main body 1, the limiting fitting portion 51 can be disengaged from the recessed portion 33, so that the water outlet component 4 is in a moving state. At this time, the water outlet component 4 can move freely along the height direction Z of the main body 1 to adjust the height.

[0085] In this embodiment, the user can switch the static state and the moving state of the water outlet component 4 by moving the shell 43 up and down. For example, when the water outlet component 4 is in the static state, the user drives the water outlet component 4 to move as a whole by moving the shell 43. During this process, the limiting fitting portion 51 slides along the side wall of the recessed portion 33 until it abuts against the rib 32, and can be separated from the recessed portion 33 under the pressure of the rib 32, so that the water outlet component 4 is switched to the moving state. When the user continues to move the water outlet component 4 upward, the limiting fitting portion 51 always slides with the limiting plate 3 until the water outlet component 4 moves to the expected height, and the user stops moving the shell 43. At this time, the limiting fitting portion 51 can be engaged with the recessed portion 33 of the corresponding height under the action of the restoring force of the spring sheet itself, so that the water outlet component 4 is switched back to the static state, thereby completing the height adjustment process of the water outlet component 4, that is, the limiting fitting portion 51 can be engaged with the recessed portions 33 at different heights to achieve the static state of the water outlet component 4 at different heights.

[0086] It should be noted that the limiting matching portion 51 may be locked with the recessed portion 33 only when the spring piece is completely reset, or it may be locked with the recessed portion 33 during the process of resetting the spring piece, which is not limited in this embodiment.

[0087] In addition, in the above structure, the force required for the user to move the water outlet component 4 can be adjusted by adjusting the width of the recessed portion 33 (ie, the distance between two adjacent ribs 32 ) or the distance between the water outlet component 4 and the limiting plate 3 .

[0088] In a third embodiment, if Figure 5 As shown, the limit plate 3 is provided with a limit portion 34, and the surface of the limit portion 34 on one side facing the elastic member 5 is a rough surface. The rough surface is used to cooperate with the elastic member 5 in the limit position along the height direction Z of the main body 1 so that the elastic member 5 is locked with the limit plate 3. The rough surface is also used to release the limit position with the elastic member 5 along the height direction Z of the main body 1 so that the elastic member 5 is unlocked from the limit plate 3.

[0089] In this embodiment, the rough surface has a large friction force. When the limiting fitting portion 51 of the spring piece abuts against the rough surface along the radial direction X of the main body 1, there is a large friction force between the spring piece and the limiting plate 3 in the height direction Z of the main body 1. The limiting plate 3 can limit the movement of the spring piece relative to the limiting portion 34 along the height direction Z of the main body 1, so that the spring piece and the limiting plate 3 are locked, so that the water outlet component 4 is in a static state; when the spring piece is compressed and deformed along the radial direction X of the main body 1, the limiting fitting portion 51 can move away from the rough surface, reducing the friction force between the spring piece and the limiting plate 3 in the height direction Z of the main body 1, so that the spring piece and the limiting plate 3 are released from the limit, so that the water outlet component 4 is in a moving state. At this time, the water outlet component 4 can move freely along the height direction Z of the main body 1 to adjust the height.

[0090] In this embodiment, the user can switch the static state and the moving state of the water outlet component 4 by moving the shell 43 up and down. For example, when the water outlet component 4 is in a static state, the user moves the shell 43 to drive the water outlet component 4 to move as a whole. During this process, the driving force exerted on the spring piece is greater than the friction between it and the rough surface. The limiting fitting part 51 can slide along the limiting part 34, and the water outlet component 4 is switched to the moving state until the water outlet component 4 moves to the expected height. The user stops moving the shell 43. At this time, the limiting fitting part 51 can abut against the rough surface under the action of the spring piece's own restoring force, so that the water outlet component 4 is switched back to the static state, thereby completing the height adjustment process of the water outlet component 4, that is, the limiting fitting part 51 can be frictionally limited with the rough surface at different heights to achieve the static state of the water outlet component 4 at different heights.

[0091] It should be noted that the limiting matching portion 51 may abut against the rough surface for limiting position only when the spring piece is completely reset, or may abut against the rough surface for limiting position during the process of resetting the spring piece, which is not limited in this embodiment.

[0092] In addition, in the above structure, the force required by the user to move the water outlet component 4 can be adjusted by adjusting the roughness of the rough surface.

[0093] In a specific embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the water outlet assembly 4 includes a bracket 41, which is movably installed in the main body 1. The bracket 41 is provided with a mounting hole 411. Along the height direction Z of the main body 1, both ends of the spring are fixedly connected to the mounting hole 411 respectively.

[0094] In this embodiment, the bracket 41 is used to fix the water outlet 42, and the bracket 41 is fixedly connected to the housing 43. Figure 2 As shown, along the height direction Z of the main body 1, two mounting holes 411 are spaced apart on the bracket 41, and the two ends of the spring piece extend into the two mounting holes 411 respectively to achieve a fixed connection between the spring piece and the bracket 41, thereby improving the installation stability of the spring piece.

[0095] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, when the water outlet assembly 4 is in a stationary state, the spring piece is clamped between the bracket 41 and the limit plate 3 along the radial direction X of the main body 1. At this time, the spring piece can be in a slightly compressed state, so that there is a certain friction between the spring piece and the limit plate 3 in the height direction Z of the main body 1, thereby improving the stability of the water outlet assembly 4 in a stationary state.

[0096] In a specific embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the main body 1 is provided with a guide groove 11 extending along the height direction Z of the main body 1 , at least a part of the water outlet assembly 4 is located in the guide groove 11 , and the water outlet assembly 4 is slidably connected to the guide groove 11 .

[0097] In this embodiment, at least part of the water outlet assembly 4 is located in the guide groove 11, and the guide groove 11 can guide and limit the movement of the water outlet assembly 4, preventing the water outlet assembly 4 from shaking during the movement along the height direction Z of the main body 1, thereby improving the stability of the water outlet assembly 4 in the moving state. Specifically, at least part of the bracket 41 can be extended into the guide groove 11 and slidably matched with the guide groove 11.

[0098] Alternatively, a slide rail may be provided on the main body 1 and a slider may be provided on the water outlet component 4, so that the stability of the water outlet component 4 in motion can be improved by cooperating between the slide rail and the slider.

[0099] In the above embodiments, the number of the spring pieces can be one or two. When the number of the spring pieces is two, they should be symmetrically arranged on both sides of the water outlet 42 to ensure that the water outlet component 4 is evenly stressed and improve the stability of the water outlet component 4.

[0100] In a specific embodiment, Figure 6 As shown, the limiting plate 3 is further provided with a sliding fitting portion 35 , and along the height direction Z of the main body 1 , a sliding protrusion 44 is provided at one end of the water outlet assembly 4 away from the elastic member 5 , and the sliding protrusion 44 is slidably connected with the sliding fitting portion 35 .

[0101] In this embodiment, when the water outlet component 4 moves along the height direction Z of the main body 1, the sliding protrusion 44 can slide along the sliding fitting part 35 to ensure that the water outlet component 4 reaches a force balance, avoiding the water outlet component 4 from shaking during the sliding of the spring piece along the limit plate 3, thereby improving the movement stability of the water outlet component 4.

[0102] Specifically, the sliding protrusion 44 can be disposed on the bracket 41 .

[0103] Specifically, Figure 6 As shown, the surface of the sliding protrusion 44 that contacts the sliding fitting portion 35 is an arc surface.

[0104] The arc surface can reduce the contact area between the sliding protrusion 44 and the sliding fitting portion 35, thereby reducing the friction between the two and avoiding hindering the movement of the water outlet component 4. The sliding fitting portion 35 can also be a smooth surface, which can also play a role in reducing friction.

[0105] The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
