[0027] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:
[0028] 1) For the water distribution valve core of the utility model, the position of the moving valve body is mainly controlled by different states of the valve core rod, so as to realize the switching of water flow between different water channels.
[0029] When the valve core rod is in a vertical state, the bottom of the valve core rod pushes the moving valve body to swing to the first position on the static valve plate. In this position, the covering part of the moving valve body completely covers the second water outlet channel, and the second water outlet channel is sealed by the moving valve body. The water flow flows in from the water inlet channel of the valve core housing, passes through the water hole and enters the water passing groove formed by the middle depression on the lower surface of the moving valve body, then flows from the water passing groove to the first water outlet, and finally flows out from the first water outlet channel, forming the first water channel.
[0030] Swing the valve core rod to make the valve core rod in an inclined state. Correspondingly, push the moving valve body to swing to the second position. At this time, the covering part of the moving valve body completely covers the first water outlet channel. After the water flow flows in from the water inlet channel, it passes through the water hole and the water passing groove, and flows from the water passing groove to the second water outlet, and finally flows out from the second water outlet channel 12, forming the second water channel.
[0031] By controlling the dynamic valve body to alternately conduct the water outlet channels at two different positions during the swinging process, it is ensured that only the swinging of the dynamic valve body and the valve core rod (a partial structure of the water distribution valve core) is required to form two water outlet channels with different water outlet functions; the position of the dynamic valve body can be accurately controlled, thereby realizing the precise switching of the water flow direction, enhancing the function of the water distribution valve core, being applicable to multi-functional storage shower devices and applications in some special scenarios, and meeting different usage requirements.
[0032] The structure of this water distribution valve core is relatively simple and mainly consists of several main components such as a valve core housing, a static valve plate, a dynamic valve body, an upper cover, and a valve core rod. The cooperation relationship between the components is clear, which is easy to manufacture and install, and can reduce the product cost.
[0033] In addition, the fitting design of the dynamic valve body and the static valve plate, as well as the hinged connection between the valve core rod and the dynamic valve body, make the entire device have high stability and reliability during the working process, reducing the probability of failures caused by component loosening or poor cooperation.
[0034] 2) The cooperation design of the large positioning groove and the large positioning platform, the small positioning groove and the small positioning platform, and the clamping convex platform and the clamping groove provides clear assembly position indications for the upper cover and the valve core housing. When operators perform assembly, they can quickly and accurately align the upper cover to the corresponding position, avoiding rework and damage caused by incorrect assembly directions, and improving the assembly efficiency and accuracy. At the same time, the clamping convex platform is placed in the clamping groove, and the cooperation of the large positioning platform and the small positioning platform with the large positioning groove and the small positioning groove respectively effectively restricts the relative movement between the upper cover and the valve core housing. During the use of the water distribution valve core, even under the influence of factors such as water flow impact, vibration, or external pressure, the upper cover can be firmly fixed on the valve core housing without loosening or displacement, ensuring the normal operation and sealing performance of the water distribution valve core.
[0035] 3) The design of the detent assembly enables users to clearly perceive that the valve core has switched to another water outlet gear only by relying on the "tick" sound without visual inspection, making the operation more convenient and fast, and eliminating the need to constantly stare at the valve core for operation. At the same time, it avoids the waste of water caused by improper control. Users can accurately judge the gear where the valve core is located through the "tick" sound, thereby more precisely controlling the water flow and reducing unnecessary water resource waste. In addition, it avoids embarrassing situations such as rain shower caused by misoperation. For example, in scenarios such as showering, if the valve core gear cannot be accurately judged, it may cause sudden changes in the water flow, leading to unnecessary troubles, and this design can effectively avoid the occurrence of such situations.
[0036] Another object of the present utility model is to provide a sanitary ware device, which includes the above-mentioned water distribution valve core. Description of the Drawings

Detailed implementation mode
[0050] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
[0051] Next, in conjunction with the attached Figure 1 To the attached Figure 11 And specific embodiments, the present invention will be elaborated in detail:
[0052] As Figure 1-11 As shown, the present invention provides a water distribution valve core, which can be used in fields such as plumbing and bathroom, and includes a valve core housing 1, a static valve plate 2, a moving valve body 3, an upper cover 4 and a valve core rod 5.
[0053] Wherein, the valve core housing 1 has a water inlet channel 10 and a first water outlet channel 11 and a second water outlet channel 12 located on both sides of the water inlet channel 10.
[0054] The static valve plate 2 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the middle part of the valve core housing 1. The static valve plate 2 has a water passing hole 20 and a first water outlet 21 and a second water outlet 22 located on both sides of the water passing hole 20; the position of the water passing hole 20 is opposite to the water inlet channel 10 of the valve core housing 2, and the positions of the first water outlet 21 and the second water outlet 22 are respectively opposite to the first water outlet channel 11 and the second water outlet channel 12 of the valve core housing 1. In this embodiment, as Figure 8As shown, the static valve plate 2 is disc-shaped. The first water inlet 21 and the second water inlet 22 are symmetrically arranged. The symmetrically arranged first water outlet 21 and second water outlet 22 can ensure more uniform flow distribution in the two water outlet channels, avoiding the situation where the flow rate in one channel is too large while the flow rate in the other channel is too small, thereby improving the flow distribution stability of the entire water distribution valve core.
[0055] The lower surface of the moving valve body 3 is fitted and installed on the upper surface of the static valve plate 2, and the moving valve body 3 can swing on the static valve plate 2; a water passing groove 30 is formed by inward depression in the middle of the lower surface of the moving valve body 3, and a covering portion 31 is formed corresponding to the outer periphery of the water passing groove 30. In this embodiment, the water passing groove 30 and the covering portion 31 are symmetrically arranged, which can better cooperate with the symmetrically arranged first water outlet 21 and second water outlet 22.
[0056] The upper cover 4 is fixedly installed on the top of the valve core housing 1, and a valve core installation position 40 is formed on the top of the upper cover 4.
[0057] The valve core rod 5 is movably arranged in the valve core installation position 40, and the bottom of the valve core rod 5 is hinged to the moving valve body 3, which can push the moving valve body 3 to swing.
[0058] Among them, the valve core rod 5 has a vertical state and an inclined state.
[0059] When the valve core rod 5 is in the vertical state, the covering portion 31 of the moving valve body 3 completely covers the second water outlet channel 12, and the first water path is formed by sequentially connecting the water inlet channel 10, the water passing hole 20, the water passing groove 30, the first water outlet 21 and the first water outlet channel 11, as Figure 10 shown;
[0060] When the valve core rod 5 is in the inclined state, the covering portion 31 of the moving valve body 3 completely covers the first water outlet channel 11, and the second water path is formed by sequentially connecting the water inlet channel 10, the water passing hole 20, the water passing groove 30, the second water outlet 22 and the second water outlet channel 12, as Figure 11 shown.
[0061] For the water distribution valve core of the present utility model, the position of the moving valve body 3 is mainly controlled by different states of the valve core rod 5, so as to realize the switching of water flow between different water paths.
[0062] When the spool rod 5 is in a vertical state, the bottom of the spool rod 5 pushes the moving valve body 3 to swing on the static valve plate 2 to the first position. In this position, the covering portion 31 of the moving valve body 3 completely covers the second water outlet channel 12, and the second water outlet channel 12 is sealed by the moving valve body 3. Water flows in from the water inlet channel 10 of the spool housing 1, passes through the water hole 20 and enters the water trough 30 formed by the depression in the middle of the lower surface of the moving valve body 3. Then, it flows from the water trough 30 to the first water outlet 21 and finally flows out from the first water outlet channel 11, forming the first water path.
[0063] Swing the spool rod 5 to make the spool rod 5 in an inclined state. Correspondingly, push the moving valve body 3 to swing to the second position. At this time, the covering portion 31 of the moving valve body 3 completely covers the first water outlet channel 11. After the water flows in from the water inlet channel 10, it passes through the water hole 20 and the water trough 30, and flows from the water trough 30 to the second water outlet 22 and finally flows out from the second water outlet channel 12, forming the second water path.
[0064] By controlling the moving valve body 3 to alternately conduct the water outlet channels at two different positions during the swinging process, it is ensured that only the swinging of the moving valve body 3 and the spool rod 5 (local structure of the water distribution spool) is required to form two water outlet channels with different water outlet functions; the position of the moving valve body 3 can be accurately controlled, so as to achieve precise switching of the water flow direction, enhance the function of the water distribution spool, and is suitable for the application of multi-functional storage shower heads and some special scenarios, meeting different usage requirements.
[0065] The structure of the water distribution spool is relatively simple, mainly composed of several main components such as a spool housing, a static valve plate, a moving valve body, an upper cover, and a spool rod. The cooperation relationship between the components is clear, easy to manufacture and install, and can reduce the product cost.
[0066] In addition, the fitting design of the moving valve body and the static valve plate and the hinged connection between the spool rod and the moving valve body make the whole device have high stability and reliability during the working process, reducing the probability of failures caused by component loosening or poor cooperation.
[0067] Furthermore, an annular boss 13 and a plurality of first positioning anti-rotation bosses 14 arranged along its circumferential direction are formed on the inner wall of the middle part of the spool housing 1, and the first positioning anti-rotation bosses 14 are located above the annular boss 13.
[0068] The lower surface of the static valve plate 2 abuts against the annular boss 13 of the valve core housing 1, and a first positioning groove 23 is arranged along the circumferential direction at the outer wall of the static valve plate 2; the first positioning anti-rotation boss 14 of the valve core housing 1 is arranged in the first positioning groove 23 of the static valve plate 2 to realize the fixed installation of the static valve plate 2 in the valve core housing 1, so that the static valve plate 2 will not rotate. In this embodiment, three first positioning anti-rotation bosses 14 and three first positioning grooves 23 are provided and are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction.
[0069] The lower surface of the static valve plate 2 abuts against the annular boss 13, which can form a relatively tight contact surface, providing a good basis for the sealing of the valve. This tight contact can effectively prevent the leakage of fluid between the static valve plate 2 and the valve core housing 1 and improve the sealing performance of the valve.
[0070] At the same time, the cooperation between the first positioning anti-rotation boss 14 and the first positioning groove 23 can not only fix the position of the static valve plate 2, but also enhance the sealing effect to a certain extent. When the static valve plate 2 is subjected to fluid pressure, the first positioning anti-rotation boss 14 can exert a downward pressure on the static valve plate 2, making the static valve plate fit more tightly on the annular boss, further improving the sealing performance.
[0071] Furthermore, the water distribution valve core may further include an inner gasket 6;
[0072] A groove 13-1 is provided on the upper surface of the annular boss 13, and the inner gasket 6 is placed in the groove 13-1 to realize the sealed connection between the static valve plate 2 and the valve core housing 1.
[0073] In this embodiment, the inner gasket 6 is in a hollow butterfly shape and is also a symmetric structure, and its specific structure is adapted to the structure of the static valve plate 2.
[0074] The inner gasket 6 is placed in the groove 13-1 of the annular boss 13, which can form a reliable sealing barrier between the static valve plate 2 and the valve core housing 1. The groove 13-1 provides a stable installation position for the inner gasket 6 to ensure that the inner gasket 6 will not shift or deform during operation, thereby effectively preventing the leakage of fluid between the static valve plate 2 and the valve core housing 1. At the same time, the inner gasket 6 has a certain elasticity and can adapt to different fluid pressures. Under high pressure conditions, the inner gasket 6 can be compressed more tightly to further enhance the sealing performance; while under low pressure conditions, the inner gasket 6 can still maintain a good sealing effect to ensure the normal operation of the water distribution valve core.
[0075] Furthermore, the moving valve body 3 includes a moving valve plate 32 and a bracket 33. As Figure 7 shown, a second positioning groove 32-1 is arranged along the circumferential direction at the outer wall of the moving valve plate 32; as Figure 6As shown, at the outer edge of the bracket 33, second positioning and anti-rotation bosses 33-1 are arranged along its circumferential direction. The second positioning and anti-rotation bosses 33-1 are matched with the second positioning grooves 32-1 and are inserted and installed into the second positioning grooves 32-1 to achieve the fixed connection between the bracket 33 and the moving valve plate 32, enabling the precise positioning and installation between the moving valve plate 32 and the bracket 33; fixing the moving valve plate 32 on the bracket 33 without rotation, and at the same time enabling the moving valve plate 32 and the bracket 33 to slide in the same direction subsequently. Meanwhile, the design of the second positioning and anti-rotation bosses 33-1 and the second positioning grooves 32-1 can ensure the accurate position of the moving valve plate 32 on the bracket 33, avoiding installation deviation and affecting the normal operation of the water separation valve core. In this embodiment, three second positioning and anti-rotation bosses 33-1 and three second positioning grooves 32-1 are provided and evenly distributed along their circumferential direction.
[0076] Specifically, as Figure 6 shown, two sliding grooves 33-2 are formed on the upper surface of the bracket 33; as Figure 5 shown, a slider 41 matching the sliding groove 33-2 is formed at the bottom of the upper cover 4, enabling the bracket 33 to slide on the lower surface of the upper cover 4. The design of adding the slider 41 enhances the stability of the sliding design. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the sliding grooves 33-2 and the slider 41 are both symmetrically arranged on both sides of the bracket 33 and the upper cover 4.
[0077] The lower surface of the moving valve plate 32 is attached to the upper surface of the static valve plate 2. At the same time, with the cooperation of the bracket 33 that can slide on the lower surface of the upper cover 4, the upper and lower surfaces of the moving valve body 3 are limited, which can ensure that the moving valve plate 32 always maintains a good fitting state with the static valve plate 2, avoiding the generation of gaps due to swinging, thereby effectively preventing water leakage, making the sealing position more stable. During the change of water flow pressure or the operation of the water separation valve core, the sealing state will not be easily affected and can maintain stable sealing performance, improving the reliability of the water separation valve core.
[0078] Furthermore, as Figure 1 、 4 、5 shown, relatively arranged large positioning grooves 42 and small positioning grooves 43, and two symmetrically arranged clamping bosses 44 are formed on the outer wall surface of the upper cover 4; correspondingly, as Figure 1 、 2 、3 shown, a large positioning platform 15, a small positioning platform 16 matching the large positioning grooves 42 and the small positioning grooves 43, and two buckling grooves 17 matching the clamping bosses 44 are formed at the top of the valve core housing 1. During installation, the large positioning platform 15 is placed in the large positioning groove 42, the small positioning platform 16 is placed in the small positioning groove 43, and the clamping bosses 44 are placed in the buckling grooves 17 to fixedly install the upper cover 4 on the top of the valve core housing 1.
[0079] The mating design of the large positioning groove 42 and the large positioning platform 15, the small positioning groove 43 and the small positioning platform 16, and the clamping boss 44 and the clamping groove 17 provides clear assembly position indication for the upper cover 4 and the valve core housing 1. When assembling, the operator can quickly and accurately align the upper cover 4 to the corresponding position, avoiding rework and damage caused by incorrect assembly direction, and improving the assembly efficiency and accuracy. At the same time, the clamping boss 44 is placed in the clamping groove 17, and the cooperation of the large positioning platform 15 and the small positioning platform 16 with the large positioning groove 42 and the small positioning groove 43 effectively restricts the relative movement between the upper cover 4 and the valve core housing 1. During the use of the water distribution valve core, even affected by factors such as water flow impact, vibration or external pressure, the upper cover 4 can be firmly fixed on the valve core housing 1 without loosening or displacement, ensuring the normal operation and sealing performance of the water distribution valve core.
[0080] Furthermore, as Figure 9 shown, the valve core rod 5 is columnar. The valve core rod 5 is installed at the valve core installation position 40 of the upper cover 4. The middle part of the valve core rod 5 is hinged to the upper cover 4 through a rotating shaft 50, and the bottom of the valve core rod 5 is hinged to the moving valve body 3, that is, hinged to the bracket 33 on the moving valve body 3, and can push the moving valve body 3 to swing. During operation, when the valve core rod 5 is pulled, the valve core rod 5 will swing a certain angle and drive the moving valve body 3 to swing at the same time.
[0081] Specifically, the bottom of the valve core rod 5 is a swinging column 51. A swinging opening 33-3 is formed on the upper surface of the bracket 33. The swinging column 51 of the valve core rod 5 is placed in the swinging opening 33-3 of the bracket 33 to realize the hinged connection between the bottom of the valve core rod 5 and the moving valve body 3.
[0082] More specifically, a bead assembly 7 can also be installed on the valve core rod 5. Two side-by-side gear slots 45 are formed at the position of the upper cover 4 opposite to the bead assembly 7. When the valve core rod 5 is pulled, the bead assembly 7 will be placed in the adjacent gear slot 45, and at this time, a clear "tick" gear shifting sound can be heard.
[0083] The design of the bead assembly 7 enables the user to clearly perceive that the valve core has been switched to another water outlet gear only by relying on the "tick" sound without visual inspection, making the operation more convenient and fast, and there is no need to always stare at the valve core for operation. At the same time, it avoids the waste of water caused by improper control. The user can accurately judge the gear of the valve core through the "tick" sound, so as to more accurately control the water flow and reduce unnecessary water resource waste. In addition, it avoids embarrassing situations such as rain caused by misoperation. For example, in scenarios such as showering, if the gear of the valve core cannot be accurately judged, the water flow may suddenly change, causing unnecessary trouble, and this design can effectively avoid the occurrence of such situations.
[0084] In this embodiment, the catch assembly 7 includes a limit post 70, a catch 71 formed at one end of the limit post 70, and a spring 72 sleeved outside the catch 71; correspondingly, a catch installation hole 52 is formed on the valve core rod 5; the limit post 71 sleeved with the spring 72 is inserted and installed into the catch installation hole 52 of the valve core rod 5, so that the catch installation hole 52 of the valve core rod 5 is directly opposite to the gear position groove 45 of the upper cover 4, and the catch 71 is placed in the gear position groove 45. At this time, swinging the valve core rod 5 drives the catch 71 to be placed in the adjacent gear position groove 45, and a clear "tick" gear position switching sound can be heard.
[0085] The catch assembly 7 is composed of a limit post 70, a catch 71 and a spring 72. The overall structure is compact and can be conveniently installed in the catch installation hole 52 of the valve core rod 5. And the installation is simple, which can improve the assembly efficiency. At the same time, the spring 7 is sleeved outside the limit post, providing a stable pressure for the catch 71. This pressure enables the catch 71 to closely fit in the gear position groove 45, ensuring that when the valve core rod 5 swings, the catch 71 can smoothly move from one gear position groove 45 to another gear position groove 45 and make a clear "tick" sound. And the elasticity of the spring 72 can buffer the impact force when the catch 71 moves between the gear position grooves 45, reducing the wear of the catch 71 and the gear position groove 45, thereby prolonging the service life of the catch assembly 7 and the entire water distribution valve core. In addition, the elasticity of the spring 72 can adapt to different operating conditions. For example, in the case of temperature change, water flow pressure change, etc., the spring 72 can automatically adjust the pressure to ensure that the catch 71 can always work properly, improving the reliability and stability of the water distribution valve core.
[0086] The general assembly process of the valve core rod 5 and the upper cover 4 is as follows: first, the limit post 71 sleeved with the spring 72 is inserted and installed into the catch installation hole 52 of the valve core rod 5. Then, the valve core rod 5 is inserted into the valve core installation position 40 of the upper cover 4, and the swing post 51 at the bottom of the valve core rod 5 is inserted into the swing port 33-3 of the bracket 33. At this time, the catch installation hole 52 of the valve core rod 5 is aligned with the gear position groove 45 of the upper cover 4, and the catch 71 is placed in the gear position groove 45; and the rotation shaft hole of the valve core rod 5 is aligned with the rotation shaft hole of the upper cover 4, and the rotation shaft 50 is inserted into the rotation shaft holes of the upper cover 4 and the valve core rod 5, that is, the assembly between the valve core rod 5 and the upper cover 4 is completed. At this time, a "tick" gear position switching sound can be heard when the valve core rod 5 is toggled.
[0087] Further, in order to enhance the sealing performance of the external connection of the valve core housing 1, a sealing ring 8 can be sleeved on the outer wall at the top of the valve core housing 1, and a lower gasket 9 is arranged at the bottom of the valve core housing 1. Through the arrangement of the sealing ring 8 and the gasket 9, the external connection sealing performance is enhanced.
