[0027] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only specific embodiments cited in this application to illustrate the technical solution of the present application, rather than to limit it, and the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "inside" and "outside" and the like indicate orientations or positional relationships based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention 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, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.
[0028] In order to facilitate the convenient and quick maintenance and replacement of various parts of the faucet on the sink, I made a split design for the connection between the faucet and the sink. The split faucet and sink connector provided by the utility model includes a magnetic type and a flange type. The connector is composed of a connector A1, a connector B2 and a connector C. The connector A1 is detachably connected to the bottom of the faucet 3, and the connector B2 is detachably connected to the hole in the sink 4. The connector A1 is provided with a first hollow inner cavity 5, and the connector B2 is provided with a second hollow inner cavity 6. The connector A1 and the connector B2 are detachably connected together through the connector C, thereby realizing the communication between the first inner cavity 5 and the second inner cavity 6; when the split faucet and sink connector adopts the magnetic type, the connector C adopts a neodymium magnet ring 15; when the split faucet and sink connector adopts the flange type, the connector C adopts a screw 16.
[0029] Specifically, connector A1 is threadedly connected to faucet 3, and connector B2 is threadedly connected to a hole in sink 4. Furthermore, the first inner cavity 5 and second inner cavity 6 have equal diameters, each ranging from 20 to 40 mm. Depending on requirements, specifications may be 25 mm, 30 mm, or 35 mm, for example. To enhance durability and aesthetics, connectors A1 and B2 are both coated with a layer of decorative chrome. This decorative chrome coating can be achieved using existing technology and is not a limiting feature of this invention.
[0030] Specifically, the connecting member A1 consists of a first connecting plate 7 and a first connecting column 8, and the connecting member B2 consists of a second connecting plate 9 and a second connecting column 10. The first connecting plate 7 and the second connecting plate 9 are detachably connected together through the connecting member C. The first connecting column 8 is threadedly connected to the faucet 3, and the second connecting column 10 is threadedly connected to the hole of the sink 4.
[0031] Furthermore, in order to optimize the appearance, the outer diameters of the first connecting plate 7 and the second connecting plate 9 are equal to ensure that the outer surfaces are flat when the two are connected; at the same time, in order to facilitate connection, the outer diameters of the first connecting column 8 and the second connecting column 10 are equal (such as 31 mm) and smaller than the outer diameter of the first connecting plate 7 (such as 50 mm).
[0032] In view of the difference in the connector C, the structures of the connectors A and B are also adjusted accordingly. The following introduces the specific implementation methods of the two types of split faucets and sink connectors: magnetic type and flange type.
[0033] Example 1
[0034] The split faucet and sink connector provided by this utility model is designed to consist of three components: connector A1, connector B2, and connector C. Connector C utilizes a neodymium magnet ring 15, providing a magnetic faucet and sink connector. The specific structure is as follows.
[0035] Connector A1 see Figure 1 Connector B2 see Figure 2 As shown, connect C (neodymium magnet ring 15) to see Figure 3 As shown, the installation diagram of magnetic faucet and sink connector can be found in Figure 4 shown.
[0036] Specifically, a first annular groove 11 and a second annular groove 12 for accommodating the neodymium magnet ring 15 are formed on opposite sides of the first connecting plate 7 and the second connecting plate 9, respectively. The neodymium magnet ring 15 is embedded in a cavity formed by the first annular groove 11 and the second annular groove 12 being buckled together.
[0037] Furthermore, the depths of the first annular groove 11 and the second annular groove 12 are equal, both 3-5 mm. 3 mm is preferred in the present invention. Accordingly, the thickness of the neodymium magnet ring 15 is slightly smaller than the cavity formed by the first annular groove 11 and the second annular groove 12 being fastened together.
[0038] Furthermore, the magnetic force of the neodymium magnet ring 15 should be ≥ N42, such as N42 or N52. Multiple tests have shown that magnetic forces above N52 result in excessively strong adsorption, leading to resource waste. Meanwhile, magnetic forces below N42, such as N40 or N38, result in insufficient adsorption, which can easily cause the connector to fall off. Therefore, the present invention prefers a neodymium magnet ring with a magnetic force of N42, which meets daily use requirements without the risk of falling off.
[0039] Installation Instructions:
[0040] like Figure 4 As shown, use a threaded connection to secure connector A1 to faucet 3, and connector B2 to the hole in sink 4. Then, place connector C (neodymium magnet 15) in the groove of either connector A1 or B2. Finally, connect connectors A1 and B2 together, and installation is complete. To improve sealing, a gasket or external tape can be placed between connectors A1 and B2.
[0041] When repairing or replacing, there is no need to enter the narrow space under the sink to disassemble the faucet, which is time-consuming and laborious. As long as the faucet 3 is held and slightly applied to the side, the faucet 3 and the sink 4 can be easily separated, which is convenient for repair and replacement.
[0042] Example 2
[0043] The split faucet and sink connector provided by this utility model is designed to consist of three components: connector A, connector B, and connector C. Connector C is screwed 8, providing a flange-type faucet and sink connector. The specific structure is as follows.
[0044] Connector A see Figure 5 Connector B see Figure 6 See the diagram for installation of faucet and sink connector. Figure 7 shown.
[0045] Specifically, a first threaded hole 13 and a second threaded hole 14 are respectively provided on opposite sides of the first connecting plate 7 and the second connecting plate 9 . The positions of the first threaded hole 13 and the second threaded hole 14 correspond one to one. The screws 16 are made of M4 nickel wire.
[0046] The installation instructions for flange faucets and sink connectors are as follows:
[0047] like Figure 7 As shown, use threaded fasteners to secure connector A1 to faucet 3 and connector B2 to the hole in sink 4. After completing the first two steps, align connector A1 and connector B2 and secure them with M4 nickel wire to complete the installation. To improve sealing, a gasket or external tape can be placed between connectors A1 and B2.
[0048] When replacing or repairing, you only need to remove the fixed nickel wire to separate the faucet and the sink, which is convenient for maintenance and replacement.
[0049] In summary, the utility model adopts a split design, which eliminates the need to enter the narrow space under the pool for time-consuming and laborious disassembly during maintenance and replacement, saving manpower and time. At the same time, the structure is very simple, greatly reducing production costs, and is particularly suitable for large-scale production.
