Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of faucets, and in particular to a faucet. Background Art
[0002] Faucets are common household appliances used to control the flow of water. They are found in kitchen sinks, bathtubs, and washbasins, as well as in drinking fountains, tea bars, and water purifiers. For example, with the improvement of people's living standards, water purifiers have become widely used. Due to different drinking habits, some users prefer room temperature water, while others prefer hot water. Therefore, integrated water purifiers with both room temperature and hot water have emerged, and faucets, which are compatible with these integrated water purifiers, have also become popular.
[0003] At present, the more common faucets that match the integrated water purifier with clean water and heat mostly include a faucet shell and a water outlet provided in the faucet shell. The faucet discharges water outward through the water outlet. Specifically, the water outlet is provided with a water outlet cavity and a water inlet and a water outlet respectively connected to the water outlet cavity. The normal temperature water and hot water of this type of faucet both enter the water outlet cavity through the water inlet and then are discharged through the water outlet. The structure is simple and easy to install, but this type of faucet has a relatively obvious defect. When there is unclean normal temperature water left in the water outlet, when hot water is discharged again, this part of the remaining normal temperature water mixes with the hot water, causing the hot water temperature to be low. Similarly, when there is unclean hot water left in the water outlet, when normal temperature water is discharged again, this part of the remaining hot water mixes with the normal temperature water, causing the normal temperature water temperature to be high, affecting the user experience.
[0004] In order to solve the above problems, a faucet with a new type of water outlet has appeared on the market, which is more popular among consumers. The inner cavity of the new water outlet is provided with a hot water outlet chamber and a cold water outlet chamber. Hot water is discharged through the hot water outlet chamber, and normal temperature water is discharged through the cold water outlet chamber, which solves the problem that the normal temperature water temperature is too high or the cold water temperature is too low due to the mixing of normal temperature water and hot water. The current problem with this faucet is that since normal temperature water and hot water are discharged separately, it is necessary to set a cold water outlet corresponding to the cold water outlet chamber and a hot water outlet corresponding to the hot water outlet chamber at the water outlet. For a purifier and heat all-in-one machine, the discharge flow rate of normal temperature water is usually much greater than the discharge flow rate of hot water. Therefore, the area of the cold water outlet needs to be larger than the hot water outlet. However, due to the limited structure of the water outlet itself, the design of the cold water outlet and the hot water outlet has always been difficult to meet the corresponding needs, resulting in the cold water and hot water outlet being slanted, the water shape being unsightly, and the splashing phenomenon being serious. The existence of this defect leads to a poor user experience of this type of faucet and equipment such as the purifier and heat all-in-one machine using this type of faucet. Utility Model Content
[0005] The present application provides a faucet to solve the technical problems of current faucets such as slanted cold and hot water discharge, unsightly water patterns, and severe splashing.

[0011] The shell is provided with a horizontal step portion extending along the circumferential direction, the outer ring wall is fitted on the horizontal step portion, and the outer ring wall is provided with a radial positioning ring rib extending downward, the radial positioning ring rib abuts against the inner wall of the shell to form a radial limit for the embedded bracket.
[0012] The hot water outlet channel is constructed as a tapered structure with an inner diameter gradually decreasing from top to bottom.
[0013] One or more stacked hot water bubbling nets are installed in the hot water outlet channel, and one or more stacked cold water bubbling nets are installed in the cold water outlet channel. A avoidance hole for avoiding the water outlet shaft is provided in the middle of the cold water bubbling net.
[0014] The inner wall of the water outlet shaft is provided with a first supporting portion for supporting the hot water foaming net, and the bottom of the shell is folded inward to form a second supporting portion for supporting the cold water foaming net.
[0015] A guide pipe connected to the hot water outlet cavity and steam guide ribs surrounding the guide pipe are provided at the bottom of the water outlet nozzle. The guide pipe is inserted into the water outlet shaft from top to bottom. The guide pipe, the steam guide ribs and the water outlet shaft form a steam channel connecting the hot water outlet channel and the cold water outlet channel.
[0016] An outer limiting ring rib extending downward is provided at the bottom of the water outlet, and the outer limiting ring rib surrounds and abuts against the outer side of the shell, and a sealing body is provided between the outer limiting ring rib and the shell.
[0017] The faucet also includes a faucet shell and a decorative ring. The faucet shell is provided with a water outlet port. The water outlet nozzle is fixed in the faucet shell. The decorative ring is threadedly connected to the faucet shell and, together with the water outlet nozzle, clamps the diverter device up and down in the water outlet port.
[0018] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the technical effects achieved by this application include at least:
[0019] 1. The faucet provided in the present application has a water outlet cavity and a cold water outlet cavity, so that hot water can be discharged through the hot water outlet cavity and normal temperature water can be discharged through the cold water outlet cavity, realizing separate cavity and diversion discharge of normal temperature water and hot water, solving the problem caused by mixing of normal temperature water and hot water. On this basis, a diversion device is provided under the water outlet. The diversion device includes a shell and an embedded bracket. The water outlet shaft of the embedded bracket is hollow inside to form a hot water outlet channel for discharging hot water. A cold water outlet channel for discharging normal temperature water is formed between the water outlet shaft and the shell, forming a water outlet form in which hot water is discharged from the center of the diversion device and normal temperature water is discharged from the outer ring. For hot water with a generally small water flow rate, hot water can be discharged through the water outlet shaft, and the gathering and diverting effect of the water outlet shaft can be used to make the hot water discharge in a beam shape, which helps to prevent hot water from drifting, optimize the water shape, and reduce splashing. For normal temperature water with a generally large water flow rate, water is discharged through the outer ring of the water outlet shaft, and the channel area is large, which reduces the pressure holding phenomenon at the water outlet and can increase the outer diameter of the water column. Under the diversion effect of the outer wall of the water outlet shaft and the inner wall of the shell, it also helps to prevent normal temperature water from drifting, optimize the water shape, and reduce splashing. Compared with designing the diversion device as an integrated structure, designing it as a split structure consisting of a shell and an embedded bracket facilitates the processing and molding of each, reduces the difficulty of demolding, and also facilitates the installation of other components that are conducive to improving the water outlet shape in the shell or the embedded bracket before assembling the shell and the embedded bracket together.
[0020] 2. As a preferred embodiment of the present application, after the built-in bracket is embedded in the shell, the shell supports the positioning part, and the normal temperature water flows downward from the cold water outlet chamber through the positioning part and continues to flow downward through the water hole. Since the positioning part is provided with an upwardly protruding spoiler, when the normal temperature water passes through the positioning part, the flow rate of the normal temperature water can be slowed down under the disturbing effect of the spoiler. The high-velocity water flow in the cold water outlet chamber is decelerated into a low-velocity water flow that enters the cold water outlet channel, so that the water flow rate tends to be stable, which helps to optimize the water shape when the water is discharged from the cold water outlet channel, improves the aesthetics, reduces the splashing of water droplets, and improves the user experience.
[0021] 3. As a preferred embodiment of the present application, the spoiler includes spoiler convex points arranged at intervals along the circumference of the outer ring wall. The outer ring wall is connected to the top of the inner ring wall and is higher than the inner ring wall as a whole. The water flow holes are provided on the inner ring wall, so that during the discharge process, the normal temperature water is first buffered and decelerated under the disturbing effect of the spoiler convex points, then enters between the inner ring wall and the water outlet axis, and is then thrown downward through the water flow holes in the form of a parabola, further buffering the normal temperature water, reducing the flow rate, and improving the water shape. Moreover, multiple water flow holes are distributed circumferentially on the inner ring wall to form a multi-porous water outlet, so that the normal temperature water is finally discharged in the form of shower water, and the water shape is more beautiful.
[0022] 4. As a preferred embodiment of the present application, the hot water outlet channel is constructed as a tapered structure with the inner diameter gradually decreasing from top to bottom, so that the lower the hot water outlet channel is, the smaller the water outlet area is, which helps to gather the hot water into a bundle, and the hot water column is straighter and not skewed.
[0023] 5. As a preferred embodiment of the present application, a hot water bubbling net is installed in the hot water outlet channel, and a cold water bubbling net is installed in the cold water outlet channel, so that the normal temperature water flow and the hot water flow have a foaming effect. On the one hand, the bubbles generated enhance the flushing force of the water when they burst. On the other hand, under the resistance of the hot water bubbling net and the cold water bubbling net to the water flow, the softness of the water outlet is enhanced and the water shape of the water outlet is improved.
[0024] 6. As a preferred embodiment of the present application, the flow guide tube is inserted into the water outlet shaft from top to bottom, so that the flow guide tube can pre-bundle the hot water in the hot water outlet chamber and then stably guide it into the water outlet shaft. The flow guide tube, steam guide ribs, and the water outlet shaft form a steam channel connecting the hot water outlet channel and the cold water outlet channel. As the hot water flows in the water outlet shaft, the steam can be discharged along the steam channel to the cold water outlet channel, forming a water vapor separation discharge pattern in which the hot water is discharged from the water outlet shaft and the steam is discharged from the steam channel and the cold water outlet channel, thereby reducing the sputtering caused by steam spraying from the water outlet shaft.

[0049] In the embodiments of this application, a faucet is provided. For ease of explanation and understanding, the following contents provided in this application are all described based on the illustrated product structure. Of course, those skilled in the art will understand that the above structure is only a specific example and schematic description and does not constitute a specific limitation of the technical solution provided in this application.
[0050] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, the present application provides a faucet, including a water outlet 1 and a diverter device 2 fitted under the water outlet 1, the water outlet 1 being provided with a hot water outlet chamber 11 and a cold water outlet chamber 12, the diverter device 2 comprising a shell 21 and an embedded bracket 22, the shell 21 being through-through, the embedded bracket 22 being embedded in the shell 21, the embedded bracket 22 comprising a water outlet shaft 221, the interior of the water outlet shaft 221 being hollow to form a hot water outlet channel 222, a cold water outlet channel 23 being formed between the water outlet shaft 221 and the shell 21, the hot water outlet chamber 11 discharges hot water outward through the hot water outlet channel 222, and the cold water outlet chamber 12 discharges cold water outward through the cold water outlet channel 23.
[0051] The faucet of the present application has a water outlet 1 with a hot water outlet cavity 11 and a cold water outlet cavity 12, so that hot water can be discharged through the hot water outlet cavity 11 and normal temperature water can be discharged through the cold water outlet cavity 12, realizing the separate cavity and flow discharge of normal temperature water and hot water, solving the problem caused by the mixing of normal temperature water and hot water. Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, a partition wall 13 can be set in the water outlet 1, and the inner cavity of the water outlet 1 is divided into a hot water outlet cavity 11 and a cold water outlet cavity 12 by the partition wall 13. The water outlet 1 is provided with a hot water inlet 14 corresponding to the hot water outlet cavity 11 and a normal temperature water inlet 15 corresponding to the cold water outlet cavity 12.
[0052] On the basis of the diversion discharge of normal temperature water and hot water, the diversion device 2 is matched with the water outlet 1 below. The diversion device 2 includes a shell 21 and an embedded bracket 22. The water outlet shaft 221 of the embedded bracket 22 is hollow inside to form a hot water outlet channel 222 for discharging hot water. A cold water outlet channel 23 for discharging normal temperature water is formed between the water outlet shaft 221 and the shell 21, forming a water outlet form in which hot water is discharged from the center of the diversion device 2 and normal temperature water is discharged from the outer ring. For hot water with a generally small water flow rate, the diversion device 2 is used to discharge hot water. The hot water is discharged from the water outlet shaft 221, and the gathering and guiding effect of the water outlet shaft 221 can be used to make the hot water discharge in a beam shape, which helps to prevent the hot water from drifting, optimize the water shape, and reduce the splashing phenomenon. For normal temperature water with a generally large water flow rate, the water is discharged through the outer ring, and the channel area is large, which reduces the pressure holding phenomenon of the water outlet nozzle 1, and can increase the outer diameter of the water column. In addition, under the guiding effect of the outer wall of the water outlet shaft 221 and the inner wall of the shell 21, it also helps to prevent the normal temperature water from drifting, optimize the water shape, and reduce the splashing phenomenon. Compared with designing the diversion device as an integrated structure, the present application designs it as a split structure consisting of a shell 21 and an embedded bracket 22, which facilitates their respective processing and molding, reduces the difficulty of demolding, and is also convenient for installing other components that are conducive to improving the water shape in the shell 21 or the embedded bracket 22 before assembling the shell 21 and the embedded bracket 22 together.
[0053] Regarding the structural improvement of the embedded bracket 22, as a preferred embodiment, Figures 5 to 8 As shown, the embedded bracket 22 further includes a positioning portion 223 extending outwardly along the circumference of the water outlet axis 221 into the cold water outlet channel 23. The housing 21 supports the positioning portion 223. The positioning portion 223 is provided with an upwardly protruding flow spoiler 2231 and a water hole 2234 connecting the cold water outlet cavity 12 and the cold water outlet channel 23. After the embedded bracket 22 is embedded in the housing 21, the housing 21 supports the positioning portion 223 to prevent the embedded bracket 22 from falling. Normal temperature water flows downward from the cold water outlet chamber 12 through the positioning portion 223 and continues to flow downward through the water hole 2234. Since the positioning portion 223 is provided with an upwardly protruding spoiler 2231, when the normal temperature water passes through the positioning portion 223, the flow rate of the normal temperature water can be slowed down under the disturbing effect of the spoiler 2231. The high-flow rate water flow in the cold water outlet chamber 12 is decelerated into a low-flow rate water flow and enters the cold water outlet channel 23, so that the water flow rate tends to be stable, which helps to optimize the water shape when the water is discharged from the cold water outlet channel 23, improves the aesthetics, reduces the splashing of water droplets, and improves the user experience.
[0054] Regarding the structural improvement of the positioning portion 223, as a preferred embodiment, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 and Figure 8As shown, the positioning portion 223 includes an inner annular wall 2232 and an outer annular wall 2233, the inner annular wall 2232 extends axially along the water outlet shaft 221 and the bottom is connected to the water outlet shaft 221, the outer annular wall 2233 is connected to the top of the inner annular wall 2232 and extends radially along the water outlet shaft 221, the shell 21 supports the outer annular wall 2233, the flow-disturbing portion 2231 includes flow-disturbing protrusions arranged at intervals along the circumference of the outer annular wall 2233, and a plurality of water holes 2234 are distributed circumferentially on the inner annular wall 2232. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the flow-spreading portion 2231 comprises flow-spreading protrusions spaced circumferentially along the outer annular wall 2233. The outer annular wall 2233 is connected to the top of the inner annular wall 2232 and is generally higher than the inner annular wall 2232. The water-passing holes 2234 are provided on the inner annular wall 2232. During the discharge process, the normal-temperature water is first buffered and decelerated by the flow-spreading protrusions, then enters between the inner annular wall 2232 and the water outlet shaft 221, and is then ejected downward in a parabolic pattern through the water-passing holes 2234, further buffering the normal-temperature water, reducing its flow velocity, and improving its water pattern. Furthermore, the multiple water-passing holes 2234 are circumferentially distributed on the inner annular wall 2232, forming a multi-hole water outlet, allowing the normal-temperature water to ultimately be discharged as shower water, resulting in a more aesthetically pleasing water pattern. In other embodiments not shown, the flow-spreading portion may also utilize other suitable structures other than the flow-spreading protrusions, such as annular flow-spreading ribs or intermittent flow-spreading ribs.
[0055] Furthermore, for the convenience of embedding the bracket 22 in the housing 21 and supporting it through the housing 21, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the housing 21 is provided with a horizontal step portion 211 extending in the circumferential direction, and the outer annular wall 2233 is fitted on the horizontal step portion 211. The outer annular wall 2233 is provided with a downwardly extending radial positioning ring rib 2235. The radial positioning ring rib 2235 abuts against the inner wall of the housing 21 to form a radial limit for the embedded bracket 22. Specifically, the horizontal step portion 211 supports the outer annular wall 2233 upward to prevent the embedded bracket 22 from falling downward. The side wall of the horizontal step portion 211 can also circumferentially support the outer annular wall 2233 to form a radial position for the embedded bracket 22. At the same time, the radial positioning ring rib 2235 abuts against the inner wall of the housing 21 to form a radial limit for the embedded bracket 22, thereby achieving dual radial positioning and ensuring the installation stability of the embedded bracket 22. Moreover, the water flow thrown downward from the water hole 2234 flows downward after colliding with the radial positioning ring rib 2235. The guiding effect of the radial positioning ring rib 2235 helps to make the normal temperature water flow straighter and not deflected.
[0056] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, Figure 6As shown, the hot water outlet channel 222 is constructed as a tapered structure with a gradually decreasing inner diameter from top to bottom. Specifically, the inner wall of the water outlet shaft 221 can be formed into an inclined surface that gradually tilts toward the center from top to bottom, thereby gradually reducing the inner diameter of the hot water outlet channel 222 from top to bottom. Therefore, the lower the hot water outlet channel 222 is, the smaller the water outlet area is, which helps to gather the hot water into a bundle, making the hot water column straighter and more stable.
[0057] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, Figure 2 and Figure 8 As shown, one or more stacked hot water bubbling nets 3 are installed in the hot water outlet channel 222, and one or more stacked cold water bubbling nets 4 are installed in the cold water outlet channel 23. A clearance hole is provided in the middle of each cold water bubbling net 4 to avoid the outlet shaft 221. The mesh structure of the hot water bubbling nets 3 and the cold water bubbling nets 4 creates a foaming effect when the room temperature water flows into or contacts the cold water bubbling nets 4, and when the hot water flows into or contacts the hot water bubbling nets 3. On the one hand, the bubbles generated enhance the flushing force of the water when they burst. For example, when using room temperature water to rinse dishes or food, the rinse is more clean. On the other hand, the resistance of the hot water bubbling nets 3 and the cold water bubbling nets 4 to the water flow improves the softness of the water outlet and the water type. This application does not limit the number of hot water bubble nets 3 and cold water bubble nets 4, which can be one or more. When there are multiple hot water bubble nets 3 and cold water bubble nets 4, the resistance to room temperature water and hot water is greater, the water output is softer, and the foaming effect is better.
[0058] Furthermore, if Figure 2 as well as Figures 5 to 8 As shown, the inner wall of the water outlet shaft 221 is provided with a first support portion 2211 that supports the hot water bubbler net 3. The bottom of the housing 21 folds inward to form a second support portion 212 that supports the cold water bubbler net 4. Specifically, the first support portion 2211 can be designed as a step formed on the inner wall of the water outlet shaft 221, which provides stable support for the hot water bubbler net 3. Based on this, during assembly, the hot water bubbler net 3 and the cold water bubbler net 4 must be pre-installed on the first support portion 2211 and the second support portion 212, respectively, before the embedded bracket 22 is embedded in the housing 21.
[0059] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, Figure 4 and Figure 8As shown, the bottom of the water outlet 1 is provided with a guide tube 16 communicating with the hot water outlet chamber 11, and steam guide ribs 17 surrounding the guide tube 16. The guide tube 16 is inserted from top to bottom into the water outlet shaft 221. The guide tube 16, the steam guide ribs 17, and the water outlet shaft 221 form a steam channel 5 connecting the hot water outlet channel 222 and the cold water outlet channel 23. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the guide tube 16 is inserted from top to bottom into the water outlet shaft 221, allowing the guide tube 16 to pre-bundle the hot water in the hot water outlet chamber 11 before stably guiding it into the water outlet shaft 221, thereby facilitating rapid hot water flow and optimizing the water flow pattern. The guide pipe 16, the steam guide rib 17 and the water outlet shaft 221 form a steam channel 5 connecting the hot water outlet channel 222 and the cold water outlet channel 23, so that when the hot water flows in the water outlet shaft 221, the steam can be discharged to the cold water outlet channel 23 along the steam channel 5, forming a water vapor separation discharge form in which the hot water is discharged from the water outlet shaft 221 and the steam is discharged from the steam channel 5 and the cold water outlet channel 23, thereby reducing the sputtering phenomenon caused by the steam spray from the water outlet shaft 221.
[0060] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, Figure 4 and Figure 8 As shown, the bottom of the water outlet 1 is provided with an outer limiting ring rib 18 extending downward. The outer limiting ring rib 18 surrounds and abuts the outer side of the housing 21. A sealing body 6 is provided between the outer limiting ring rib 18 and the housing 21. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the radial positioning of the diverter 2 is achieved by the outer limiting ring rib 18 abutting the housing 21, thereby preventing radial displacement of the diverter 2. The sealing body 6 provided between the outer limiting ring rib 18 and the housing 21 ensures the sealing of the inner cavity of the diverter 2 relative to the outside world, preventing water from flowing down through the gap between the outer limiting ring rib 18 and the housing 21.
[0061] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 9As shown, the faucet further includes a faucet housing 7 and a decorative ring 8. The faucet housing 7 is provided with a water outlet port 71. The spout 1 is fixed within the faucet housing 7. The decorative ring 8 is threadedly connected to the faucet housing 7 and, together with the spout 1, clamps the diverter 2 vertically within the water outlet port 71. In a preferred embodiment, the spout 1 can be fixed to the faucet housing 7 by screws. After the spout 1 is secured in place within the faucet housing 7, the assembled diverter 2 is installed below the spout 1, specifically by being embedded within the outer retaining ring rib 18 at the bottom of the spout 1. Finally, the decorative ring 8 is threadedly connected to the faucet housing 7, thereby clamping the diverter 2 vertically between the spout 1 and the decorative ring 8.
