Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of faucet structures, in particular to an assembled faucet. Background Art

[0002] A faucet is a valve that connects to a water pipe and controls the flow of water. It is mainly used to control the opening and closing of water flow. It is widely used in homes, businesses and public facilities, and is a key hub connecting water sources and daily life. Simple faucets are compact in structure, and the water volume and switch status can usually be adjusted through a rotatable handle, which is easy to operate.

[0003] As an indispensable household item in daily life, the design and function of the faucet directly affect the user experience. Different usage scenarios and needs have different requirements for the functions of faucets. Different home environments and space layouts have different requirements for the size, shape and installation method of faucets. Therefore, users need to choose a suitable faucet structure according to the spatial characteristics of their kitchen or bathroom. Correspondingly, manufacturers will produce and provide faucets of various specifications, styles and functions to meet the needs of the market. However, most faucets on the market currently adopt a traditional one-piece design, such as an one-piece induction faucet provided in the patent document with announcement number CN108167499A. Although this mold has a simple structural design, it also limits the diversity and innovation of the faucet shape. Due to the process requirements of one-piece molding, any change in shape requires re-molding, which not only increases production costs, but also prolongs the product development cycle.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide an assembled faucet to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the problems in the related art, the utility model provides an assembled faucet, which can improve the diversity of faucet structures while reducing mold making costs.

[0006] The utility model is achieved in this way:

[0007] An assembled faucet comprises an outer tube body, wherein a water channel is arranged in the outer tube body; the outer tube body comprises a main tube module and a water outlet module;

[0008] The main body module is arranged vertically; a hand wheel is provided on the top of the main body module, and the hand wheel is detachably connected to the main body module and is used to adjust the flow of the faucet; a first opening is also provided on the side of the main body module;

[0009] The two ends of the water outlet module are respectively a water outlet and a water inlet, and the water outlet and the water inlet are interconnected;

[0010] The faucet also includes a connecting piece; the two ends of the connecting piece are respectively connected to the first opening and the water inlet; wherein, one end of the connecting piece is adapted to the size of the first opening, and the other end is adapted to the size of the inner circumference of the water inlet; the water inlet is horizontally oriented toward the first opening, and is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the main body module.

[0011] By adopting the split design concept, the main body module and the faucet module are manufactured independently, realizing the modularization and personalized customization of the production process. The mold of each module can be independently developed according to the design specifications. Only the size parameters of the first opening and the water inlet of the main pipeline need to be defined to achieve compatible docking with modules of various sizes. This design allows unlimited customization of the main body module in height. At the same time, the faucet module can choose the spout design of different lengths and shapes according to functional requirements or aesthetic standards, including but not limited to straight, curved, square or circular pipes and other forms. This modular production method not only enriches the structural diversity of the product, but also significantly reduces the cost of mold development and manufacturing compared with the traditional one-piece design. In addition, the setting of connectors further ensures the structural integrity between the modules and the stability and reliability of the connection, thereby improving the reliability and durability of the faucet products.

[0012] As a further optimization of the above scheme, the radial dimensions of the inner circumference of the first opening and the water inlet are the same; the connecting piece is a tubular structure with uniform thickness; one end of the connecting piece is embedded in the water outlet module along the water inlet, and the other end is embedded in the main pipe module along the first opening.

[0013] As a further optimization of the above scheme, the connecting part includes a supporting part, which is a tubular structure; the two ends of the supporting part are a first connecting end and a second connecting end; the first connecting end and the first opening are cooperatively connected; the supporting part protrudes / folds outward along the outer peripheral side of the second connecting end and extends to form an engaging part; the engaging part cooperates with the inner peripheral side of the water outlet module.

[0014] As a further optimization of the above solution, when the water outlet module is assembled with the engaging portion, an annular gap opening outward is formed between the engaging portion, the supporting portion and the inner circumference of the water outlet module.

[0015] When connecting, the nozzle module and the connector are welded through the annular gap; after the nozzle module and the connector are welded and fixed, the first connection end is embedded in the first opening to complete the fixed connection between the nozzle module and the main body module. The depth of the annular gap can be adjusted arbitrarily until a stable support effect is achieved, such as 5mm to 15mm.

[0016] As a further optimization of the above solution, a raised limiting boss is provided along the inner peripheral side wall of the water outlet module; the engaging portion abuts against an outward side of the limiting boss.

[0017] The limiting boss is used to limit the embedding depth of the connector, and is also convenient for adjusting the connection angle and posture between the connector and the water outlet module.

[0018] As a further optimization of the above solution, the connecting member also includes an extension portion; the extension portion is a tubular structure; one end of the extension portion is cooperatively connected with the outer peripheral edge of the engagement portion; the outer peripheral side of the extension portion is cooperatively connected with the inner peripheral side of the water outlet module.

[0019] The extension portion can further enhance the stability of the connection between the connector and the water outlet module, and between the main body module and the water outlet module.

[0020] As a further optimization of the above solution, the first connecting end extends outward to form a guide portion, and the guide portion gradually shrinks from the opening of the first connecting end; the outer side surface of the guide portion is formed as an oblique or arc-shaped guide surface.

[0021] A guide portion is provided to facilitate the matching and assembly of the connecting member and the first opening.

[0022] As a further optimization of the above solution, the engaging portion is welded to the inner circumference of the water outlet module; and the water inlet is welded to the outer side of the main body module.

[0023] As a further optimization of the above solution, a right angle or an obtuse angle is formed between the surface where the engaging portion is located and the outer peripheral side surface of the supporting portion.

[0024] The beneficial effects are as follows:

[0025] The utility model provides an assembled faucet. By adopting a split design concept, the main body module and the faucet module are manufactured independently, realizing modularization and personalized customization of the production process, and setting connecting parts to ensure the structural integrity and stability and reliability of the connection between the modules, thereby improving the reliability and durability of the faucet product. The mold of each module can be independently developed according to the design specifications. Only the size parameters of the first opening and the water inlet of the main pipeline need to be defined to achieve compatible docking with modules of various sizes, meet the structural diversity of the products produced, and significantly reduce the cost of mold development and manufacturing compared with the traditional one-piece design.
