Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of faucets, in particular to a new type of flexibly assembled water-saving faucet. Background Art

[0002] Traditional faucet designs are often relatively simple, with fixed functions, and are difficult to meet the diverse needs of modern users. Especially in the fast-paced life, people expect faucets to be both water-saving and convenient and comfortable to use, achieving a perfect combination of efficiency and comfort. Therefore, developing a new type of water-saving faucet that can be flexibly combined according to the actual needs of users to improve the convenience and comfort of use has also become an important direction in faucet design.

[0003] Faucets in the home are often used for filling and washing, but traditional faucets have a single water flow pattern, and in order to prevent splashing, the height of traditional faucets is often too low, which is not convenient for users to wash their hair or wash large items. Therefore, we have designed a new type of flexible and modular water-saving faucet. Users can adjust the height of the faucet by turning the control switch. When the user turns the control switch upward, the faucet moves upward and water is discharged from the shower head, so that the user does not need to bend down significantly when washing his hair or washing items; when the user turns the control switch downward, the faucet moves downward and water is discharged from the direct current channel, which is convenient for users to quickly complete water filling, effectively utilize the water flow, and save water resources.

[0025] See also Figure 1-4A new type of water-saving faucet that can be flexibly combined includes a valve body 1, a valve core 2 is installed inside the valve body 1, the valve core 2 is a cylinder, the diameter of the middle water-passing section of the valve core 2 is smaller than the diameter of the two ends, and the length of the middle water-passing section of the valve core 2 is the same as the diameter of the DC interface 203 and the shower interface 202. A control switch 8 is designed at the upper end of the valve core 2, and the control switch 8 has the freedom to move in the vertical direction. A limit plate 9 is designed outside the control switch 8. The lower surface of the limit plate 9 is parallel to the bottom of the valve body 1. The limit plate 9 and the valve body 1 are fixedly connected. The length of the hollow part in the middle of the limit plate 9 is the sum of the diameter of the DC interface 203, the diameter of the shower interface 202, and the distance from the DC interface 203 to the shower interface 202. Limit magnetic blocks 10 are designed on both sides of the middle of the hollow part of the limit plate 9. The control switch 8 is made of magnetic material. Two main flow channels 201 and a DC interface 203 and a shower interface 202 are respectively designed on both sides of the valve core 2. The shower interface 202 is above the DC interface 203, and the DC interface 203 is connected to the DC water pipe 4. The shower interface 202 is connected to the shower water pipe 3, and the DC water pipe 4 is connected to the DC channel 5 upwards, and the shower water pipe 3 is connected to the shower channel 6 upwards. The DC water pipe 4 and the shower water pipe 3 are retractable spring water pipes. The DC channel 5 and the shower channel 6 are concentric circle structures, and the diameter of the DC channel 5 is smaller than that of the shower channel 6. The DC channel 5 is inside the shower channel 6; the rear ends of the DC channel 5 and the shower channel 6 are connected to the moving block 12, and the moving block 12 is threadedly connected to the DC channel 5 and the shower channel 6, and the inside of the moving block 12 is solid; the moving block 12 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the valve core 2, and the DC channel 5 is threadedly connected to the DC port 11; the shower channel 6 is threadedly connected to the shower 7. The front end of the DC channel 5 is designed to be installed with a DC port 11, and the front end of the shower channel 6 is designed to be installed with a shower head 7. The middle of the water outlet of the shower head 7 has a circular hollow with a diameter equal to that of the DC port 11, and an inner wall extends to the inside of the shower head 7. The inner wall is designed with threads on one side of the center point, and the outer side of the DC port 11 water outlet is designed with threads. The DC port 11 water outlet is connected to the shower head 7 by threads. There is an inner wall extending to the inside of the shower head 7, and the DC port 11 is installed in the inner wall.

[0026] like Figure 1-4As shown, the moving block 12 is fixedly connected to the valve core 2, and is threadedly connected to the direct current channel 5 and the shower channel 6. When the user moves the valve core 2 up and down through the external control switch 8 of the valve core 2, the moving block 12 moves vertically together, so that the faucet can achieve the purpose of adjusting the height. When the faucet moves upward, the middle flow section of the valve core 2 corresponds to the shower interface 202, and the water flows out of the shower interface 202 through the main flow channel 201, passes through the shower water pipe 3 and the shower channel 6, and finally flows out of the shower 7. The water flows through the shower 7 into small particles that expand outward. The water flow increases the water flow area, which is convenient for users to flush, and the faucet position is raised, so that users do not need to bend over excessively when washing their hair or cleaning items, thereby improving the user experience; when the faucet moves downward, the middle flow section of the valve core 2 corresponds to the DC interface 203, and the water flows out through the main flow channel 201 to the DC interface 203, passes through the DC water pipe 4 and the DC channel 5, and finally flows out from the DC port 11.

The control switch 8 is made of magnetic material. Therefore, when the user needs to turn off the faucet, the control switch 8 can be turned to the middle position, and the limit magnetic block 10 assists in positioning and fixing, which reduces the difficulty of operation when the user adjusts the faucet.

[0028] When in use, when the faucet is in a non-working state, the control switch 8 is located in the middle of the limit plate 9 and is fixed by the limit magnetic block 10. When the user needs to perform operations such as filling water, he only needs to press the control switch 8, and the control switch 8 drives the valve core 2 to move downward, and the water flows out from the direct current port 11; when the user needs to wash his hair or flush his face, he only needs to lift the control switch 8, and the control switch 8 drives the valve core 2 to move upward, and the water flows out from the shower head 7; when the user finishes using it, the control switch 8 is returned to the hollow middle of the limit plate 9 and is fixed with the assistance of the limit magnetic block 10.

[0029] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other.
