[0031] As Figure 1 shown, a faucet elbow 1 with a current limiter includes a water outlet elbow 2, an inner water pipe 3, a cylindrical seat 4, a water distribution joint 5, a current limiter shell 61, an O-shaped silica gel ring 62, a two-way joint 7, a fastener 8 and an open snap ring 9.
[0032] The cylindrical seat 4 includes a head 41, an annular slot (not marked in the figure) and a counterbore 42 provided at the lower end.
[0033] The water distribution joint 5 includes a rotating pipe portion 51, a water guiding hole 52, a current limiting cavity portion 53 and an annular seat plate 54 with an axial water guiding hole 55. The inner wall of the current limiting cavity portion 53 is provided with an internal thread, and the axial water guiding hole 55 is arc-shaped and evenly distributed on the annular seat plate 54.
[0034] The shell flow regulator housing 61 is hollow and has a lower opening, including a current-limiting core cavity 611 and a top water outlet hole 612;
