Detailed Implementation
[0034] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.
[0035] This utility model relates to a water outlet device, including a main body 100, a connecting pipe 300 and a water control mechanism 400.
[0036] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the body 100 can be a faucet, a water distribution component, etc. In this embodiment, the body 100 is a shower faucet with hot and cold water pipes. The body 100 is provided with a connector 200, which can be a curved connector 200. One, two, or more connectors 200 can be provided on the body 100. The connecting pipe 300 can be a long straight pipe, used to connect to a tap water pipe or other water supply equipment. The connecting pipe 300 and the connector 200 are detachably connected, with one connector 200 corresponding to one connecting pipe 300. The connecting pipe 300 and the connector 200 can be indirectly connected through other connecting parts, or directly connected. For example, the connector 200 has external threads, the connecting pipe 300 has internal threads, the connector 200 is inserted into the connecting pipe 300, and the two are connected by threads. A water control mechanism 400 is installed in the connecting pipe 300, used to control whether water flows from the connecting pipe 300. The water control mechanism 400 is configured to switch between an open state and a closed state relative to the connecting pipe 300. The state switching of the water control mechanism 400 is related to whether the connector 200 is installed on the pipe 300. For example... Figure 5 As shown, when connector 200 is installed on pipe 300, connector 200 can push the control mechanism to switch to the open state. At this time, pipe 300 is open, and tap water can be supplied to connector 200 through pipe 300 and water control mechanism 400. When the water valve on the main body 100 is opened, water can flow out. Figure 6 As shown, when the main body 100 needs to be disassembled and the connector 200 is disconnected from the connecting pipe 300, the water control mechanism 400 loses the pushing action of the connector 200 and switches to the closed state. In the closed state, the water control mechanism 400 blocks the connecting pipe 300, preventing water from flowing out. The water control mechanism 400 can quickly and automatically switch between the closed and open states according to the installation and removal of the main body 100, without the need to turn off the main water supply switch, making it very convenient for the installation and removal of the main body 100.
[0037] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the water control mechanism 400 includes a connecting seat 410, an elastic element 420, and a moving element 430. The outer contour of the connecting seat 410 is adapted to the internal shape of the connecting pipe 300. The connecting seat 410 is installed in the connecting pipe 300, and it intercepts the interior of the connecting pipe 300, preventing water from flowing through the connection between the connecting seat 410 and the connecting pipe 300. The moving element 430 and the elastic element 420 are installed on the connecting seat 410. The moving element 430 has a channel 431, allowing it to translate on the connecting seat 410. The moving element 430 has a first position and a second position relative to the connecting seat 410. The elastic element 420 can be a spring or other elastic component. The elastic element 420 applies an elastic force to the moving element 430. Figure 5 As shown, in the open state, the movable member 430 is pushed to the first position by the connector 200, and the elastic member 420 is compressed. Water is transported from the external water pipe to the connector 200 via the connecting pipe 300 in the direction of water flow. The connector 200 is located downstream of the water control mechanism 400. The channel 431 has an inlet 432 and an outlet 433. The inlet 432 of the channel 431 communicates with the interior of the connecting pipe 300 upstream of the connecting seat 410, and the outlet 433 of the channel 431 communicates with the connector 200. Water upstream of the connecting pipe 300 flows into the channel 431 through the inlet 432 and then exits from the outlet 433 of the channel 431, being transported to the connector 200, thereby achieving water flow. Figure 6 As shown, when the main body and connector 200 are disassembled relative to the connecting pipe 300, the water control mechanism 400 switches to the closed state. At this time, after the moving part 430 loses the thrust of the connector 200, the moving part 430 moves from the first position to the second position under the elastic action of the elastic member 420. The water inlet 432 of the channel 431 is hidden in the connecting seat 410, and the water inlet 432 is closed. Water in the connecting pipe 300 on the upstream side of the connecting seat 410 cannot enter the channel 431, thereby realizing the water control mechanism 400 blocking the connecting pipe 300.
[0038] Specifically, such as Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the movable component 430 is a pipe fitting. A channel 431 is axially formed in the movable component 430. One end of the channel 431 opens on the side wall of the movable component 430, forming an inlet 432. One end of the channel 431 can have a single inlet 432 on the side wall of the movable component 430, or multiple inlets 432 can be formed on the side wall of the movable component 430, distributed circumferentially along the movable component 430. When the movable component 430 moves to the first position, the inlet 432 extends to the outside (upstream side) of the connecting seat 410, communicating with the inside of the pipe 300 on the upstream side of the connecting seat 410. When the movable component 430 moves to the second position, the inlet 432 retracts into the inside of the connecting seat 410, and the connecting seat 410 closes the inlet 432.
[0039] Furthermore, a first hole 411 is formed on the upstream end face of the connecting seat 410. The end of the movable member 430 away from the connector 200 is the upstream end, and the end of the movable member 430 near the connector 200 is the downstream end. The inlet 432 is formed on the side wall of the movable member 430 near its upstream end. A sealing member 440 is provided at the upstream end of the movable member 430. The sealing member 440 can be a plug or a sealing ring, etc. The movable member 430 passes through the connecting seat 410 and its upstream end protrudes from the first hole 411. The inlet 432 moves with the movable member 430 inside and outside the first hole 411. When the movable member 430 moves to the second position, the sealing member 440 seals the first hole 411, which can improve the sealing performance in the closed state. Furthermore, the sealing member 440 is a sealing ring. The sealing ring is fitted on the upstream end of the movable member 430. The first hole 411 is tapered, gradually narrowing towards the downstream side of the connecting seat 410. When the moving part 430 moves to the second position, the sealing ring abuts against the first hole 411. The tapered shape of the first hole 411 ensures that the sealing ring can fully abut against the hole wall of the first hole 411 to ensure sealing.
[0040] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, the outer wall of the connecting seat 410 is provided with external threads, and the inner wall of the connecting pipe 300 is provided with internal threads. The connecting seat 410 and the connecting pipe 300 are connected by threads. The connecting seat 410 is screwed into the connecting pipe 300 by threads, and the installation depth of the connecting seat 410 relative to the connecting pipe 300 can be controlled. Before screwing the connecting seat 410 in, PTFE tape can be wrapped around the connecting seat 410 before installation into the connecting pipe 300 to improve water sealing.
[0041] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, the connecting seat 410 includes a first seat body 412 and a second seat body 413. The outer contour of the first seat body 412 is adapted to the shape of the cavity of the connecting pipe 300. The second seat body 413 may be a hollow cylinder. The first seat body 412 is sleeved on the second seat body 413. The inner wall of the first seat body 412 is provided with internal threads, and the outer wall of the second seat body 413 is provided with external threads. The first seat body 412 and the second seat body 413 are threaded together. The outer wall of the first seat body 412 may be provided with external threads to connect with the internal threads of the connecting pipe 300. A movable member 430 passes through the first seat body 412 and the second seat body 413. The elastic member 420 may be a spring, and the elastic member 420 is sleeved on the movable member 430. One end of the elastic member 420 abuts against the first seat body 412, and the other end abuts against the movable member 430.
[0042] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the connector 200 includes a hollow first connector 210 and a hollow second connector 220. The second connector 220 is installed in the first connector 210. The connector 200 is detachably connected to the connecting pipe 300 via the first connector 210. The second connector 220 can extend into the connecting pipe 300 and abut against the movable member 430. The movable member 430 is moved to a first position by the second connector 220. The moving position of the movable member 430 is adapted to the installation position of the second connector 220 in the first connector 210.
[0043] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, the channel 431 opens at the downstream end of the movable member 430 to form an outlet 433. The second connector 220 can be tubular. After the connector 200 is installed onto the connecting pipe 300, the outlet 433 abuts against the end of the connecting part. Water flows through the channel 431 and is discharged from the outlet 433, and can then flow directly into the second connector 220, and be conveyed to the main body through the second connector 220. The outer wall of the first connector 210 is provided with external threads, and the inner wall of the connecting pipe 300 is provided with internal threads. The first connector 210 and the connecting pipe 300 are threaded together. The second connector 220 is threaded together with the first connector 210. The relative position of the second connector 220 and the movable member 430 after the connector 200 is installed onto the connecting pipe 300 is adjusted by controlling the depth to which the second connector 220 is screwed into the first connector 210.
