The various embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] Please see Figures 1 to 6The present invention preferably provides the following technical solution: a 360-degree rotating faucet, comprising: a faucet body 111, and a bent pipe structure assembled with the faucet body 111; wherein, the bent pipe structure includes a bent pipe body 211, and an inlet connector 311 and an outlet connector 411 respectively disposed at the inlet and outlet ends of the bent pipe body 211, and a first steering component and a second steering component are respectively disposed between the inlet connector 311, the outlet connector 411 and the bent pipe body 211 for 360° longitudinal rotation of the bent pipe body 211; further comprising a third steering component 312 and a threaded structure respectively disposed at the ends of the inlet connector 311 and the outlet connector 411 away from the bent pipe body 211, wherein the third steering component 312 is used for the inlet connector 311 to rotate 360° laterally relative to the faucet body 111, and a water outlet head 511 installed on the threaded structure is used for water dispensing.

[0026] This application addresses the issues of insufficient steering angle and unstable steering positioning in existing faucets by designing a faucet bending device that can rotate freely 360° up and down, left and right, and forward and backward. The device features a simple structure and good stability. Specifically, it incorporates… Figure 1-4 As shown, the bent pipe structure is assembled at the outlet end of the faucet body 111. The inlet and outlet ends of the bent pipe body 211 are respectively equipped with an inlet connector 311 and an outlet connector 411. A third steering component 312 is provided between the inlet end of the inlet connector 311 and the faucet body 111, enabling the overall lateral rotation of the bent pipe structure. A first steering component is provided between the outlet end of the bent pipe body 211 and the inlet end of the bent pipe body 211, enabling the longitudinal rotation of the bent pipe body 211 and its various structures. Simultaneously, a [missing information - likely a design feature] is provided between the outlet end of the bent pipe body 211 and the inlet end of the outlet connector 411. The second steering component further enables the longitudinal rotation of the water outlet connector 411 and the water outlet head 511 on the water outlet connector 411. This allows the bent pipe structure, specifically the water outlet head 511, to complete a 360° free rotation process: left and right (the overall lateral rotation of the bent pipe structure), up and down (the longitudinal rotation of each structure on the bent pipe body 211), and front and back (the longitudinal rotation of the water outlet head 511 itself). This allows the device to achieve 360° cleaning of the basin structure, whether it is a washbasin or a vegetable washing basin, provided that the length of the bent pipe structure is sufficient. The cleaning effect is thorough and complete.

[0027] Meanwhile, the first, second and third steering components 312, through their structural characteristics, can perform steering positioning on each structure after steering, so as to ensure the stability of the device during the steering process.

[0028] This application enables the head 511 to complete a 360° free rotation process in the left, right, up, down, and forward and backward directions by setting up various steering components. At the same time, under the structural characteristics of each steering component, each structure of the device is further equipped with a step-by-step rotation and positioning function to ensure the stability of the bend structure during the steering process.

[0029] Furthermore, the bend body 211 is U-shaped overall, with the inlet connector 311 and outlet connector 411 respectively located at the inlet and outlet ends of the bend body 211, combined with... Figure 3 , 4 As shown, the end cap holes 811 at both ends of the bent pipe body 211 can be covered by the bent pipe cap 812 through the inlet connector 311 and the outlet connector 411 respectively.

[0031] Combination Figure 3 , 4 As shown, the first steering component, the second steering component, and the third steering component 312 have the same structure. Here, only the first steering component will be explained.

[0032] Specifically, the mounting groove 910 inside the water inlet end of the bend body 211 is provided with a positioning hole 911, wherein the positioning hole 911 is connected to a positioning post 912 by a spring 913, so as to... Figure 4 As shown, the positioning protrusion 10 provided on the inner side of the end of the water inlet connector 311 abuts against the positioning post 912. Specifically, when the water inlet connector 311 rotates, the positioning post 912 can contact the convex and concave surfaces of the positioning protrusion 10. When the head of the positioning post 912 is placed on the concave surface of the positioning protrusion 10, it is used for positioning operation after the water inlet end of the bend body 211 turns, preventing the water inlet connector 311 from loosening and falling down due to the flow of tap water. Figure 6 As shown.

[0033] When the head end where the positioning post 912 is located passes over the convex surface where the positioning protrusion 10 is located, a crisp clicking sound can be produced to facilitate angle adjustment.

[0035] Furthermore, the water inlet end of the bend body 211 is provided with several slots 611, and a sealing ring 612 is provided inside each slot 611.

[0036] Combination Figure 3 , 4 5. To ensure the sealing of each steering component, the inlet and outlet ends of the bend body 211 and the inlet end of the inlet connector 311 are each provided with a number of sealing rings 612, preferably two to three.

[0037] Furthermore, a filter screen 9 is installed on the outer side wall of the water inlet channel at the water inlet end of the bend body 211, combined with... Figure 3 As shown, this is to ensure the purification effect of the device.
