Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sanitary ware, in particular to a new type of faucet. Background Art

[0002] The installation of traditional faucets usually requires the threaded sleeve on the faucet body to pass through the installation hole on the installation table (such as a washbasin), and then a locking nut is threadedly connected to the threaded sleeve from below the installation table to fix the faucet body. This installation method may have the following disadvantages: 1. When the space below some installation tables is limited, it is often difficult to reach in with the hand for operation. In this case, it is even more difficult to use tools to effectively tighten the locking nut when operating it. 2. During the installation process, due to limited visibility, it is difficult to align the locking nut with the threaded sleeve, and the installation is time-consuming and laborious. In view of the above technical problems, it is necessary to design a new type of faucet that can complete the entire installation process above the installation table without the need to operate below the installation table to solve the above problems.

[0022] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the attached Figures 1-5 drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all embodiments.

[0023] Embodiment:

[0024] As Figures 1 to 5 shown, the present utility model discloses a new type of faucet, including a faucet main body 1. A base 2 is integrally formed at the lower end of the faucet main body 1. Expansion mechanisms are provided below the front and rear sides of the base 2. The expansion mechanism includes a connecting piece 3, a first expansion rod 41 and a second expansion rod 42. The upper side of the connecting piece 3 is fixedly connected to the lower side of the base 2. One ends of the first expansion rod 41 and the second expansion rod 42 are respectively rotatably connected to the left and right ends of the connecting piece 3. And a driving rod 5 is provided between the first expansion rod 41 and the second expansion rod 42. The driving rod 5 is used to drive the ends of the first expansion rod 41 and the second expansion rod 42 away from the connecting piece 3 to move away from each other or close together during the up and down movement. In addition, a control member for controlling the up and down movement of the driving rod 5 is provided on the base 2.

[0025] Further, driving grooves 43 extending along the length direction are respectively formed in the middle parts of the first expansion rod 41 and the second expansion rod 42. And movable columns 51 movably arranged in the driving grooves 43 are fixedly connected to both ends of the driving rod 5. Therefore, during the up and down movement of the driving rod 5, the ends of the first expansion rod 41 and the second expansion rod 42 away from the connecting piece 3 can be driven to move away from each other or close together.

[0026] Furthermore, the control member specifically includes a screw rod 6. A rotation hole 21 is formed in the base 2, a through hole 31 is formed in the middle of the connecting member 3, and a threaded hole 52 is formed in the middle of the driving rod 5. The rotation hole 21, the through hole 31, and the threaded hole 52 are arranged corresponding to each other from top to bottom. The upper side of the screw rod 6 is rotatably fitted in the rotation hole 21, and the lower side of the screw rod 6 passes through the through hole 31 and is threadedly fitted in the threaded hole 52. In this way, when the screw rod 6 is rotated on the upper side of the base 2, the screw rod 6 can drive the driving rod 5 to move up and down through the threaded fit with the driving rod 5.

[0027] Among them, in order to enable the screw rod 6 to better drive the driving rod 5 to move up and down, the base 2 is provided with limiting plates 22 on the front and rear sides of each expansion mechanism. Among them, the front and rear sides of the connecting member 3 and the driving rod 5 can be slidably attached to the limiting plates 22. The setting of the limiting plates 22 can prevent the connecting member 3, the driving rod 5, the first expansion rod 41, and the second expansion rod 42 from shaking left and right and maintain the structural stability thereof.

[0028] As Figure 2 shown, for the present utility model and the installation tabletop 9, the installation tabletop 9 has an installation hole 91, and a water outlet pipe 92 is provided on the installation hole 91. The lower side of the faucet main body 1 has a water connection pipe 11. During installation, first connect the water outlet pipe 92 and the water connection pipe 11, then place the first expansion rod 41 and the second expansion rod 42 of the lower side of the base 2 into the installation hole 91 on the installation tabletop 9, and the base 2 covers the installation hole 91. Then, rotate the screw rod 6 with a wrench tool. During the rotation of the screw rod 6, the driving rod 5 is driven to move upward, so that the ends of the first expansion rod 41 and the second expansion rod 42 away from the connecting member 3 move away from each other. In this way, the ends of the first expansion rod 41 and the second expansion rod 42 away from the connecting member 3 are clamped on the side wall of the installation hole 91. During disassembly, rotate the screw rod 6 in the reverse direction with a wrench tool to control the driving rod 5 to move downward, and the ends of the first expansion rod 41 and the second expansion rod 42 away from the connecting member 3 can be made to close together, thereby canceling the clamping of the side wall of the installation hole 91. The present utility model can complete the entire installation process above the installation tabletop 9 without the need to operate below the installation tabletop 9, which is simple and convenient.

[0029] In addition, in order to enable the first expansion rod 41 and the second expansion rod 42 to better clamp in the installation hole 91, a semi-circular extrusion block 44 is fixedly connected to the ends of the first expansion rod 41 and the second expansion rod 42 away from the connecting member 3. The semi-circular extrusion block 44 is made of rubber material and has anti-slip lines on it.

[0030] In the present utility model, a cover plate 70 is provided on a base 2. The cover plate 70 is sleeved on a faucet body 1. The cover plate 70 is made of a magnetizable metal material. A magnetic sheet 7 for attracting the cover plate 70 is provided on the lower side of the base 2. The cover plate 70 is opened upward when the screw 6 needs to be operated, and is attracted downward onto the magnetic sheet 7 after the operation is completed, maintaining the aesthetics of the structure and preventing moisture from eroding the screw 6.

[0031] In the present utility model, a rubber pad 8 is further provided on the lower side of the base 2. The rubber pad 8 is used to protect an installation tabletop 9 and can also play a sealing role between the base 2 and the installation tabletop 9.

[0032] It should be noted that the terms used in the present utility model, such as "front", "rear", "vertical", "horizontal", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings. This is only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation on the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0033] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
