[0002] Faucet is a popular name of water valve, which is used to control the size of water flow and has the function of water saving. It has become an indispensable part of modern life. When choosing a faucet, many consumers will consider its material, quality, price and other factors. However, in recent years, with the continuous decline of winter temperature, the damage of faucet and water pipe due to icing is common. For people living in cold areas, using anti-freezing faucet is undoubtedly a wise and thoughtful choice.

[0003] In the cold winter, due to the low temperature, the faucet often encounters freezing problem, which leads to the failure of normal water supply. The existing anti-freezing measures mostly wrap the faucet with cotton insulation material to slow down the heat loss. Some try to thaw by pouring hot water after the faucet is frozen. However, although the cotton insulation material can provide certain heat insulation effect, its insulation performance is often difficult to last in extremely low temperature. Thawing by pouring hot water can quickly increase the local temperature of the faucet, but it is inconvenient to operate, and even the faucet or water pipe may be damaged due to the large temperature difference.

[0028] Specifically, when the motor 608 is started, the driving shaft 610 at the output end of the motor 608 drives the flywheel 611 to rotate, so that the flywheel 611 drives the main rotating shaft 609 to rotate and drives the third bevel gear 607 to rotate, since the third bevel gear 607 is in meshing connection with the second bevel gear 606, the second bevel gear 606 is immediately driven to rotate, the rotation of the second bevel gear 606 is transmitted to the first bevel gear 605 in meshing connection with the second bevel gear 606, and the rotation of the first bevel gear 605 causes the rotation of the auxiliary rotating shaft 604, in the process, the rotation directions of the auxiliary rotating shaft 604 and the main rotating shaft 609 are opposite, the heat exchange efficiency of water flow and the heat of the motor 608 is enhanced, and the rotating blades 602 outside the auxiliary rotating shaft 604 and the main rotating shaft 609 effectively stir the water flow in the faucet in rotation, so that the water is prevented from being frozen in a low-temperature environment, the flowing water not only avoids the risk of being frozen, but also absorbs the heat generated by the motor 608 in the connecting block 603, plays a role in heat dissipation, can improve the water temperature, ensures that the water temperature in the faucet main body 1 is uniform, effectively avoids the problem of local freezing, provides double protection through the combination of the stirring of the rotating blades 602 and the heating function of the electric heating wire 5, and ensures that the faucet can still be normally used under extremely low-temperature conditions.

[0029] Reference Figures 1-3The faucet main body 1 is internally fixedly provided with an electric heating wire 5, the faucet main body 1 is internally fixedly provided with a temperature sensor 4 on the side away from the motor 608, and the faucet main body 1 is internally rotatably provided with a control switch 2 on the side close to the temperature sensor 4; the upper end of the control switch 2 is fixedly provided with a display screen 3;

[0030] Specifically, the temperature sensor 4 can monitor the water temperature inside the faucet main body 1 in real time, when the water temperature decreases to a certain extent, the temperature sensor 4 will send a signal to the electric heating wire 5, which belongs to a mature and disclosed technology in the prior art, therefore, the specific structure and working principle thereof will not be described herein, so that it starts to heat, the electric heating wire 5 will increase the temperature of the water inside the faucet main body 1 after heating, to prevent the water inside from freezing, the display screen 3 on the upper end of the control switch 2 can display the current water temperature, so that the user can intuitively understand the situation inside the faucet main body 1, through the automatic triggering of the anti-freezing mechanism, without manual intervention, the automation degree and reliability of the faucet main body 1 are improved, and the electric heating wire 5 can be activated by rotating the control switch 2 to a set position, so as to heat the inside of the faucet, at this time, the flowing water flow will drive the rotating blade 602 to rotate, thereby enhancing the heat exchange efficiency of the water flow and the electric heating wire 5.

[0031] Working principle: when the motor 608 starts, the driving shaft 610 drives the flywheel 611 to rotate, the flywheel 611 transmits the rotation to the third bevel gear 607 through the main shaft 609, since the third bevel gear 607 is meshed with the second bevel gear 606, the second bevel gear 606 rotates, the rotation of the second bevel gear 606 drives the first bevel gear 605 meshed and connected therewith to rotate, thereby driving the auxiliary shaft 604 to rotate, so that the rotating blades 602 outside the auxiliary shaft 604 and the main shaft 609 rotate in the rotating process, and the rotating direction of the auxiliary shaft 604 is opposite to that of the main shaft 609, the rotation of the rotating blades 602 will agitate the water flow inside the faucet, to prevent the water flow from freezing in a low-temperature environment, and the flowing water flow can absorb the heat generated by the motor 608 inside the connecting block 603, to play a heat dissipation role, when the temperature sensor 4 detects that the water temperature is lower than the set value, a signal will be sent to start the electric heating wire 5 to heat the inside of the faucet main body 1, and the display screen 3 will display the current water temperature;

[0032] Secondly, when the faucet main body 1 is in use, the electric heating wire 5 is started by rotating the adjusting switch to heat the inside of the faucet main body 1, at this time, the flowing water flow will drive the rotating blades 602 to rotate, so that the water temperature reaches a suitable temperature.
