Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0024] Example
[0025] Please see Figure 1-4 A faucet with a rotating function includes a connecting pipe 100 and an intelligent rotating component 200.
[0026] Please refer to the details. Figure 1 One side of the connecting pipe 100 is sealed and connected to a bend 110.
[0027] Please see Figure 3-4The intelligent rotating component 200 includes a connector 210 located at the bottom of the bend 110. A slot is provided at the bottom of the connector 210, and a connector 220 is threadedly connected to the bottom of the connector 210. A insertion ring 230 is provided on the outer wall of the connector 220, with its top inserted into the slot. A fixing ring 240 is provided in the middle of the outer wall of the connector 220, and an auxiliary tube 250 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the fixing ring 240. A connecting box 260 is sealed to the bottom of the auxiliary tube 250, and a flexible hose 270 is sealed to the bottom of the connecting box 260. A delivery tube 280 is sealed to the bottom of the flexible hose 270. The bottom of the 80 is sealed and connected to a spray head 290. The bottom of the connecting box 260 and the top of the spray head 290 are provided with several hinge seats 2910. The interior of each of the hinge seats 2910 is hinged to an electric telescopic rod 2920. A fixing plate 2930 is provided on one side of the connecting head 210. A torque motor 2940 is provided at the bottom of the fixing plate 2930. A gear 2950 is provided at the bottom of the output shaft of the torque motor 2940. A gear ring 2960 is meshed on one side of the gear 2950. The interior of the gear ring 2960 is fixedly connected to the auxiliary pipe 250. An infrared sensor 2970 is provided at the bottom of the spray head 290.
[0028] In one specific embodiment, an infrared sensor 2970 is provided. Users can easily activate the infrared sensor 2970 via a PLC controller to enable scanning. When a user places a filled instrument into the water tank, the infrared sensor 2970 detects this and sends the information to the PLC controller. The PLC controller then activates one of the torque motors 2940 at the fixed tube 600. The torque motor 2940 drives the gear 2950 to rotate, which in turn drives the gear ring 2960 to rotate. The rotation of the gear ring 2960 drives the fixed tube 600 to rotate, which in turn drives the bent tube 110 and its top structure to rotate, achieving initial adjustment. After adjustment, the PLC controller will activate another torque motor 2940, which will drive the gear ring 2960 to rotate. The rotation of the gear ring 2960 will drive the auxiliary tube 250 to rotate. The auxiliary tube 250 rotates through its rotatable connection with the fixed ring 240, causing its bottom parts to rotate, which in turn drives the spray head 290 to rotate for a secondary adjustment. At this time, the PLC controller will activate the electric telescopic rods 2920. Two of the electric telescopic rods 2920 will extend, while the other two will retract. Through the cooperation of the hinge seat 2910 and the hose 270, the angle of the spray head 290 will be adjusted, thereby achieving the purpose of intelligent tracking rotation adjustment and improving work efficiency.
[0029] Please see Figure 2The top of the bend 110 is sealed and connected to an electric valve 300, the top of the electric valve 300 is sealed and connected to a funnel 400, and the inside of the funnel 400 is movably connected to a disinfectant bottle 500.
[0030] The electric valve 300 allows users to easily open it via a PLC controller, causing it to discharge a portion of the disinfectant solution from the disinfectant bottle 500 through the funnel 400 and the bent pipe 110, and then through the spray head 290. This achieves initial disinfection of the equipment, preventing bacterial infection when users handle it again.
[0031] Please see Figure 2 The bottom of the bend 110 is sealed and connected to a fixed pipe 600. The bottom of the fixed pipe 600 is sealed and connected to a connector 210, connector 220, insert ring 230, fixed ring 240, fixed plate 2930, torque motor 2940, gear 2950 and gear ring 2960, which are opposite to those of the intelligent rotating component 200.
[0032] In one specific embodiment, by having a structure that is the same as that of the intelligent rotating component 200, the structure at the fixed tube 600 can rotate in the same way as the internal structure of the intelligent rotating component 200, so as to increase the rotation angle.
[0033] Please see Figure 2 One of the connectors 210 has a sealing tube 700 at its bottom, and a manual valve 800 is connected to the bottom of the sealing tube 700. A fixing bracket is provided on the outer wall of the sealing tube 700.
[0034] In one specific embodiment, the provided manual valve 800 allows users to connect the manual valve 800 to an external water pipe so that water can enter the instrument for cleaning during subsequent use.
[0035] Please see Figure 1 Another connector 210 has a reinforcing plate 900 on its outer wall. The bottom of the reinforcing plate 900 is movably connected to a protective box 1000. Both sides of the reinforcing plate 900 and the protective box 1000 are provided with fixing blocks. Several fixing blocks are internally threaded with screws. The bottom of the protective box 1000 is rotatably connected to the conveying pipe 280. The outer wall of one of the connectors 210 is movably connected with the opposite structure.
[0036] In one specific embodiment, the protective box 1000 is provided to protect the internal parts of the protective box 1000, preventing them from coming into contact with water and becoming unusable, thereby further improving safety during use.
[0037] Please see Figure 1The outer wall of the spray head 290 is equipped with an ultraviolet lamp ring 1100, and a PLC controller is installed at one end of the fixing frame.
[0038] In one specific embodiment, the ultraviolet lamp ring 1100 is provided so that it can be turned on by the PLC controller during use, so that the ultraviolet lamp ring 1100 can disinfect the instrument during cleaning.
[0039] Please see Figure 1-4 The electric telescopic rod 2920, torque motor 2940, infrared sensor 2970, electric valve 300 and ultraviolet lamp ring 1100 are all electrically connected to the PLC controller, and the PLC controller is electrically connected to an external power supply.
[0040] In one specific embodiment, a PLC controller is provided to facilitate power control of electrical equipment, ensuring that the equipment is powered on when needed, thus avoiding situations where power cannot be supplied when power is required.
[0041] In use, the manual valve 800 allows users to easily connect it to an external water pipe for cleaning. Then, the infrared sensor 2970, activated by the PLC controller, scans the water tank when the used instruments are placed inside. The infrared sensor 2970 detects this and sends a signal to the PLC controller, which then activates a torque motor 2940 at the fixed pipe 600. This motor drives a gear 2950, which in turn rotates a gear ring 2960, which in turn rotates the fixed pipe 600. The rotation of the fixed pipe 600 then drives the bend pipe 110 and its top structure to rotate, achieving initial adjustment. After adjustment, the PLC controller will activate another torque motor 2940, which will eventually drive the gear ring 2960 to rotate. The rotation of the gear ring 2960 will drive the auxiliary pipe 250 to rotate. The auxiliary pipe 250 rotates through its rotatable connection with the fixed ring 240, and finally drives the bottom parts of the auxiliary pipe 250 to rotate, which in turn drives the spray head 290 to rotate for secondary adjustment. At this time, the PLC controller will activate the electric telescopic rods 2920. Two of the electric telescopic rods 2920 will extend, while the other two will retract. Through the cooperation of the hinge seat 2910 and the hose 270, the angle of the spray head 290 will be adjusted, thereby achieving the purpose of intelligent tracking rotation adjustment and improving work efficiency.
[0042] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
