Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of faucets, and in particular relates to a water outlet faucet which can rotate around two axes. Background Art
[0002] Currently, there are many different faucets available, but most are simply fixed to bathroom cabinets or walls. The faucets cannot rotate, have a very limited range of rotation, or can only rotate along a single axis, resulting in a poor user experience. As people's expectations for quality of life continue to rise, using the faucet of a wash basin or cleaning countertops is becoming increasingly common. However, due to the influence of traditional faucets, most traditional faucets are fixed to the countertop, making it impossible to adjust the angle or rinse the mouth. A few faucets can rotate left and right, but these are complex and bulky, increasing user costs and shortening their service life. These faucets are also difficult to implement. Existing faucets that can rotate horizontally often use a plastic mold for their horizontal axis, which is costly and requires a long mold-opening cycle. Furthermore, due to the inherent properties of the plastic material, plastic structures are prone to fracture under instantaneous impact. Currently, few faucets can rotate in both horizontal and vertical directions. Utility Model Content

[0025] The faucet assembly 1 includes a compression screw 11, a retaining ring 12, a T-shaped pad 13, a first O-ring 14, a connector 15, a water faucet 16, and a starting block assembly 17. The starting block assembly 17 is connected to the front end of the water faucet 16 through a thread. The starting block assembly 17 and the water faucet 16 are at a certain angle. As the water faucet 16 rotates, the water outlet direction of the starting block assembly 17 can change. The rear end of the water faucet 16 and the front end of the connector 15 are fixedly connected by welding, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown, a third annular groove 153 is provided in the center of the connector 15 to allow water to pass through. A second annular groove 152 is provided in the middle of the outer circumference of the connector 15. The second annular groove 152 is used to engage the snap ring 12. The snap ring 12 and the second annular groove 152 are relatively rotatable. Two first annular grooves 151 are provided on either side of the second annular groove 152 of the connector 15 to accommodate two first O-rings 14 for sealing. A T-shaped gasket 13 is provided between the second annular groove 152 and the third annular groove 153. When the connector 15 is connected to the bracket assembly 2, the T-shaped gasket 13 is snapped into the end of the bracket assembly 2. After the faucet assembly 1 is installed in the bracket assembly 2, it is tightened by the tightening screw 11, and the tightening screw 11 contacts and supports the clamping ring 12, so that the faucet 1 can rotate 360° around the bracket assembly 2 without wearing the faucet assembly 1; under the action of the clamping ring 12 and the T-shaped pad 13, the faucet assembly 1 has high wear resistance, long service life, high sensitivity, and easy operation.
[0026] The bracket assembly 2 includes a bracket body 21, a second O-ring 22 and a first gasket 23. The lower end of the bracket body 21 has a rotating shaft. The rotating shaft and the bracket body 21 are an integrated metal structure, which has a longer life, can withstand greater impact, and is not easy to fail or damage. The interior of the rotating shaft has an internal thread, and the outer periphery of the rotating shaft has a sealing groove 2111. The second O-ring 22 is set in the sealing groove 2111 and plays a sealing role with the inner cavity of the base assembly 3. The first gasket 23 is used to connect with the base assembly 3. Figure 2As shown, five or more water inlet holes 213 are provided in the middle of the rotating shaft to accommodate the entry of water. A rotating shaft ring groove 211 is provided at the lower end of the rotating shaft, and a boss 212 is provided on one side of the end face of the rotating shaft ring groove 211. The rotating shaft rotates inside the inner cavity of the base assembly 3.
[0027] The pressure cap assembly 4 includes a third O-ring 41, a second gasket 42 and a pressure cap body 43. Figure 6 As shown, a threaded portion 431 is provided at one end of the pressure cap body 43, a fourth annular groove 432 is provided on the middle outer periphery, and a locking position 433 is provided in the center. The locking position 433 is used to cooperate with an inner hexagonal wrench to rotate and tighten the threaded portion 431 of the pressure cap body 43 into the internal thread of the rotating shaft of the bracket body 21. The third O-ring 41 is arranged in the fourth annular groove 432 to play a sealing role, and the second gasket 42 is used to connect with the base assembly 3.
[0028] like Figure 3 Figure 4 As shown, the base assembly 3 includes a base body 31 with multiple cavities provided inside. Two screws 32 are provided at the lower part to fix the main water inlet assembly 5 on the base assembly 3. The internal cavity of the base body 31 includes, from top to bottom, a first cavity 302, a second cavity 303, a third cavity 304, a fourth cavity 305, an accommodating cavity 301, a fifth cavity 306 and a sixth cavity 307. The accommodating cavity 301 is semicircular, the first gasket 23 is located inside the first cavity 302, the second O-ring 22 and the second cavity 303 are in contact and sealed, the water inlet hole 213 is located inside the third cavity 304, the boss 212 rotates inside the accommodating cavity 301 and can only rotate inside the accommodating cavity 301, the shaft ring groove 211 moves in the fourth cavity 305, the third O-ring 41 and the fifth cavity 306 form a sealing structure, the second gasket 42 forms a contact surface between the fifth cavity 306 and the sixth cavity 307, the threaded portion 431 of the pressure cap body 43 and the internal thread inside the rotating shaft of the bracket body 21 are locked together, and are located inside the sixth cavity 307 of the base body 31.
[0029] like Figure 7 As shown, a cylindrical surface 501 is provided at the upper end of the main water inlet assembly 5, and a second surface 502 is provided at the lower part of the cylindrical surface 501. Preferably, the second surface 502 is a conical surface, and the conical surface gradually becomes larger toward the water outlet direction, which can prevent the main water inlet assembly 5 from falling off after being installed into the base assembly 3. A third surface 503 is provided under the second surface 502 to facilitate the installation of a decorative cover (the decorative cover is not marked in the figure).
[0030] The utility model is reasonably designed and aims to adjust the corresponding angle by manual rotation, which is more humane. The accommodating cavity 301 inside the base body 31 is a semicircular arc positioning structure, which can achieve the positioning of the product rotation angle without opening a plastic mold.
[0031] First, the axis perpendicular to the ground is defined as axis A, and the axis perpendicular to the wall is defined as axis B. The product is in the B-axis position for installation and use. After the product is installed, the faucet assembly 1 can rotate around the A-axis by a certain angle, preferably 180 degrees. The faucet will not hit the user's head or face and cause injury, making it convenient for customers to clean and move it for use. There will be no water flow at the rotating position and no leakage. This is the first-axis rotation.
[0032] When the product is in use, the front faucet assembly 1 can also be rotated 360 degrees around the B axis, and the faucet with the outlet end facing downward can be changed to be set with the outlet end facing upward, which is convenient for washing face; it can significantly reduce water splashing when washing hands or face, and the user experience is good, making washing hair, rinsing mouth, and washing face more convenient. This is the second axis rotation.
[0033] It is understood that the present invention is described by way of certain embodiments, and those skilled in the art will appreciate that various changes or equivalent substitutions may be made to these features and embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Furthermore, under the guidance of the present invention, these features and embodiments may be modified to suit specific circumstances and materials without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, and all embodiments falling within the scope of the claims of this application are intended to be protected by the present invention.
