Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of kitchen and bathroom, in particular to a valve body applicable to multiple operation modes. Background Art
[0002] In a water outlet device, the valve body is an important water flow switching component. In different water outlet devices, different valve bodies are often used. Even in the same water outlet device, the valve bodies corresponding to different operation styles are also different. For example, for the same toilet bidet, to meet the usage requirements of different customers, its water outlet switching switch has several different styles, and the common ones include knob control, push button control, lever control, etc. For different control methods, the corresponding valve bodies are different. Even though the appearances of these toilet bidets are not very different, different valve bodies are adopted inside, and there are significant differences in the installation structures of the valve bodies, making it difficult for the components of different styles of toilet bidets to be universal. At the same time, due to the existence of different valve bodies, the procurement of different valve body quantities and their proportions needs to be arranged in advance, bringing production scheduling problems. In addition, different valve bodies need to be stored separately, which also brings inventory pressure. Therefore, the utility model provides a valve body applicable to multiple control methods to solve the above problems. Content of the Utility Model

Specific embodiments
[0038] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present utility model clearer and more understandable, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model.
[0039] Please refer to Figures 1 to 10 , a valve body applicable to multiple operation modes, including a switching valve 1 and a control panel 2, wherein
[0040] An extended valve stem 11 is provided at the control end of the switching valve 1, and the switching valve 1 is driven by the rotation of the valve stem 11. In this embodiment, the switching valve 1 has three gears.
[0041] A docking hole 211 is provided in the middle of the control panel 2. The control panel 2 is sleeved on the valve stem 11 through the docking hole 211 and is relatively fixed to the valve stem 11, so that when the control panel 2 is rotated, the valve stem 11 can also be driven to rotate, thereby driving the switching valve 1.
[0042] The control panel 2 is further provided with an engagement structure surrounding the docking hole 211. The engagement structure is located at the end and / or the periphery of the control panel 2. During use, the engagement structure is toggled or pushed by an (external switch member) to drive the valve stem 11 to rotate through the control panel 2, thereby forming various operation modes for driving the switching valve 1 to act.
[0043] In one embodiment, the engagement structure includes an end face engagement hole 212, and the axis is parallel to the valve stem 11, so that it can cooperate with a control member of the push button 4 type, and the linear movement of the push button 4 is converted into the rotation of the control panel 2. For example, the end face engagement hole 212 is a strip-shaped hole pointing to the valve stem 11 and can be used in cooperation with the reciprocating push button 4 that moves linearly.
[0044] In another embodiment, the engagement structure includes a peripheral engagement hole 221, and the axis is perpendicular to the valve stem 11, so that it can be used in cooperation with a control member such as a lever 5. Specifically, the control panel 2 includes a main body 21 and a side plate 22. The main body 21 is provided with the docking hole 211 and is fixedly assembled relative to the valve stem 11. The side plate 22 is arranged on the side of the main body 21 and covers a part of the periphery of the valve body. The peripheral engagement hole 221 is arranged on the outer face of the side plate 22.
[0045] Alternatively, in yet another embodiment, the engagement structure simultaneously includes an end face engagement hole 212 and a peripheral engagement hole 221, which can be applicable to various operation modes. Of course, during use, a knob 6 can also be directly sleeved on the valve stem 11 to form the most direct rotation switching operation mode.
[0046] On the basis of the above embodiments, in one embodiment, in order to achieve the stability of gear maintenance, the switching valve 1 and the control panel 2 are further provided with a gear position limiting structure 3. Preferably, the gear position limiting structure 3 includes an installation groove, a gear position pin, a spring and a gear position groove. The installation groove is arranged at the control end of the switching valve 1. The spring and the gear position pin are sequentially installed in the installation groove. The gear position groove is arranged on the surface of the control panel 2 facing the control end and is opposite to the installation groove. There are at least two gear position grooves. When the switching valve 1 switches to different gear positions, the gear position pin is snapped into different gear position grooves.
[0047] The valve body provided by the present utility model is equipped with a control panel 2, and an engagement structure is arranged on the control panel 2. During use, the rotation of the control panel 2 can be driven through the engagement structure, thereby driving the rotation of the valve stem 11 and the action of the switching valve 1, increasing the operation modes for controlling the switching valve 1, improving the flexibility and application range of the valve body. When changing the water outlet operation of the water outlet device, the structural design change is small, the repeated design cost and development cost can be reduced, and there is no need to purchase various types of valve bodies anymore, reducing the production scheduling pressure and inventory pressure.
