Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of them. Based on the embodiments in the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present utility model. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present utility model provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model to be protected, but merely represents the selected embodiments of the present utility model. Based on the embodiments in the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0022] By Figures 1 to 4As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present utility model provides a faucet structure, including a faucet body 1. The body 1 includes an outer shell 2, a valve core seat 3 made of plastic, ceramic, metal or other materials, a water control valve core 4, a water inlet pipe 5 and a water outlet pipe 6. The water control valve core 4 and the water inlet pipe 5 are respectively connected to the valve core seat 3 correspondingly. In this embodiment, there are two water control valve cores 4 and two water inlet pipes 5 respectively, which are used to respectively connect and control cold and hot water, and will not be elaborated here; an outlet 7 for communicating with the water outlet pipe 6 is arranged at the upper end of the valve core seat 3; a water outlet pipeline 8 for communicating the outlet 7 and the water control valve core 4 is arranged in the valve core seat 3, and a water inlet pipeline 9 for communicating the water inlet pipe 5 and the water control valve core 4 is also arranged. Among them, there are two water inlet pipelines 9 and two water outlet pipelines 8 corresponding to cold and hot water respectively, and finally converge at the outlet 7 to adjust the water temperature. Preferably, an installation part 10 is transversely arranged in the outer shell 2. In this embodiment, the outer shell 2 of the faucet with a double-handle structure is in a cross shape. Second installation openings 13 are respectively arranged at both ends of the installation part 10, and a connection part 11 for connecting with the water control valve core 4 is arranged at the side end of the valve core seat 3. The water control valve core 4 passes through the second installation opening 13 and is correspondingly connected to the connection part 11. The valve core seat 3 is transversely and adaptively installed on the installation part 10 to position and install the valve core seat 3, and provide an upward supporting force for it. Since the installation part 10 is a fixed part integral with the outer shell 2, the installation part 10 can always play a role in supporting the valve core seat 3 to fix its position. Even after long-term use or multiple installation and disassembly, the influence of the gravity on the longitudinal stability of the valve core seat 3 can be avoided. In this way, when the valve core seat 3, which is the core connection point, can maintain stability, the connections between the various structures in the faucet body 1 can be more stable and tight, greatly reducing the possibility of water leakage.

[0023] Preferably, a first installation opening 12 is arranged at the upper end of the outer shell 2; a water nozzle joint 14 is further included. The upper part of the water nozzle joint 14 is installed in the water inlet pipe 5, and the lower part is installed on the first installation opening 12. By arranging the water nozzle joint 14, it is convenient to connect and install the water outlet pipe 6 on the first installation opening 12 of the outer shell 2, and better serve as a transition to guide the water body into the water outlet pipe 6. While facilitating installation and disassembly, the possibility of water leakage is reduced. Among them, the water nozzle joint 14 can strengthen the installation stability by setting a fastening nut on the water outlet pipe 6, and will not be elaborated here.

[0024] Preferably, since the valve core seat 3 is transversely installed in the outer shell 2, the corresponding water control valve cores 4 are also connected and arranged at its left and right ends, and the outlet 7 is arranged at the upper end. In order to avoid the contact between the water body and the metal part such as the outer shell 2, a connecting pipe 15 is further included. The upper end of the connecting pipe 15 is connected to the water nozzle joint 14, and the lower end is connected to the outlet 7. The water nozzle joint 14 and the connecting pipe 15 are used to communicate the outlet 7 and the water outlet pipe 6. In this way, the possibility of the contact between the water body and the metal part is avoided, thereby increasing the safety of the water body.

[0025] Preferably, an upper cover 16 is connected between the second installation port 13 and the water control valve core 4, and the end of the upper cover 16 can abut against the valve core seat 3. The upper cover 16 is threadedly connected to the second installation port 13. After installing the sealing ring on the upper cover 16, it can be rotated inward to abut against the valve core seat 3, thereby pressing it tightly to ensure its stability.

[0026] Among them, in this embodiment, the end of the water control valve core 4 and the connecting portion 11 are inserted and abutted against each other. By threadedly connecting the water control valve core 4 and the upper cover 16, when the water control valve core 4 is rotated, it can extend into the connecting portion 11 to complete the corresponding connection, thereby avoiding the risk of the decrease in the disassembly force caused by the threaded connection between the traditional water control valve core 4 and the valve core seat 3. The outer end of the water control valve core 4 is used to connect the handle for convenient operation. Among them, the end of the upper cover 16 can also be inserted into the connecting portion 11, so as to form a sealed cavity inside it to serve as a part of the water outlet pipe 8.

[0027] Preferably, first limiting portions 17 protrude inward from the left and right sides of the installation portion 10, and a second limiting portion 18 for abutting against the first limiting portions 17 protrudes outward from one side of the outer side wall of the valve core seat 3. In this embodiment, the first limiting portions 17 on both sides are symmetrically arranged, the second limiting portion 18 is annularly arranged, and the valve core seat 3 can be inserted and installed from the left or right side of the outer housing 2. By setting the first limiting portions 17 and the second limiting portions 18, the position of the valve core seat 3 can be limited, playing a role in preliminary positioning, so that the water outlet 7 is located in the middle of the outer housing 2, so as to correspond to the water outlet pipe 6 above.

[0028] Furthermore, guiding grooves 19 are provided on the left and right sides of the installation portion 10; guiding blocks 20 for slidably connecting with the guiding grooves 19 are protruded outward from the outer side wall of the valve core seat 3. In this embodiment, the guiding grooves 19 are arranged at the coaxial positions of the first limiting portions 17, and the number of the guiding grooves 19 is multiple, four in this embodiment, and the upper and lower ones are different in size from the left and right ones for convenient positioning. By matching and inserting the corresponding guiding blocks 20 and guiding grooves 19, the angular state of the valve core seat 3 can be in the correct position, so that its water outlet 7 is aligned with the upper first installation port 12 and in a coaxial state for convenient connection and water passing. The lower end is that the water inlet pipe 5 extends into the outer housing 2 from the opening at the lower end and is connected to the water inlet end of the valve core seat 3, which will not be elaborated here. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the valve core seat 3 is cylindrical and the installation portion 10 is tubular. Although they protrude to form various structures, they can still be slidably installed in a matching manner and are also in a coaxial state after installation.

[0029] The embodiment of the present utility model further provides a water outlet device, which includes the faucet structure as described above. By providing an installation part 10 on the outer shell 2 for installing and positioning the valve core seat 3, the valve core seat 3 is horizontally installed in the outer shell 2, so that the valve core seat 3 is always supported by the fixed outer shell 2, avoiding the problem of loosening of the valve core seat 3 caused by the failure of the bottom support of the traditional valve core seat 3 under the action of gravity, ensuring the stability of the valve core seat 3 as the core connection part 11, thereby reducing the possibility of water leakage and having a longer service life. At the same time, by avoiding the water passing through metal components, the possibility of the water being polluted by heavy metals is reduced, ensuring the safety of the water body.

[0030] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model. For those skilled in the art, the present utility model can have various changes and modifications. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
