[0036] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 The water supply structure of the faucet provided by the embodiments of the present application includes a main pipe 10 and a water outlet pipe in communication with the main pipe 10, the water outlet pipe includes a first water outlet pipe 20 and a second water outlet pipe 30 in communication with the main pipe 10, the main pipe 10 and the first water outlet pipe 20 are provided with a first waterway structure, the main pipe 10 and the second water outlet pipe 30 are provided with a second waterway structure, and the first waterway structure and the second waterway structure are used to access different water sources.

[0037] In the embodiments, two water outlet channels are provided on the faucet 1, two waterway structures are provided in the two water outlet channels respectively, and the two waterway structures access different water sources. In this way, the user can conveniently select different water outlet pipes according to needs at any time during use, and the integrated design does not occupy space and also enhances the seniority and fashion of the faucet 1.

[0038] Specifically, in the embodiments, the first waterway structure is used to access purified water, which can directly access purchased barrel-shaped purified water or access a purification device, and the second waterway structure is used to access tap water. Of course, in different application occasions, the first waterway structure and the second waterway structure can also access other different water sources as needed.

[0039] In the embodiments, the first water outlet pipe 20 and the second water outlet pipe 30 are arranged above and below the main pipe 10 and have a spacing therebetween.

[0040] Specifically, the first water outlet pipe 20 is a straight-angle elbow pipe, which wraps and supports the internal first waterway structure. The first waterway structure includes a first water pipe 21, a first adapter 22 and a second adapter 23 connected to both ends of the first water pipe 21. The first water pipe 21 is horizontally placed in the horizontal part of the first water outlet pipe 20. The first adapter 22 is partially located in the horizontal part of the first water outlet pipe 20 and partially located in the vertical part of the first water outlet pipe 20. The second adapter 23 is partially located at the other end of the horizontal part of the first water outlet pipe 20 and partially extends downward from the other end of the horizontal part to form a water outlet. The first water outlet pipe 20 is outside and the first adapter 22 is inside, both of which are rotationally connected to the top of the main pipe 10. In this way, the first water outlet pipe 20 and the first waterway structure inside can rotate together relative to the main pipe 10, thereby avoiding the second water outlet pipe 30, and the two water outlet pipes can water at different positions to avoid interference with each other.

[0041] Further, the main pipe 10 is provided with a mounting member 40 having a first mounting hole 41 coaxially arranged with the main pipe 10. The first water outlet pipe 20 is externally sleeved on the mounting member 40 and can rotate relative to the mounting member 40, and one end of the first adapter 22 is internally extended into the first mounting hole 41 and can rotate relative to the first mounting hole 41. In this way, when the first water outlet pipe 20 is rotated, the internal and external structures are synchronously rotated, thereby ensuring normal water outlet.

[0042] Referring to Figure 4 In the embodiment, the first water outlet pipe 20 is an intelligent control pipe, which is internally provided with an electric control part. Specifically, the first water outlet pipe 20 has a first accommodating cavity 24 with an open top, the first water pipe 21, the first adapter 22 and the second adapter 23 are arranged in the first accommodating cavity 24, and the first accommodating cavity 24 is provided with a control panel 50 at the top. The control panel 50 can be used to control the adjustment of water quantity and temperature.

[0043] Referring to Figure 5 The control panel 50 has a mounting cavity 51 facing the first accommodating cavity 24 at the bottom, and a circuit board 52 is fixed in the mounting cavity 51 and sealed in the mounting cavity 51 by pouring glue. The control panel 50 is used to form a glue storage groove 53 between the side wall of the mounting cavity 51 and the circuit board 52.

[0044] When the circuit board 52 is installed, the control panel 50 is inverted, the circuit board 52 is first fixed by the fixing structure, and the electronic components on one side of the circuit board 52 are located in the mounting cavity 51. Then, glue is injected on the other side of the circuit board 52, the glue seals the entire upper surface of the circuit board 52, and the excess glue flows into the glue storage groove 53 on the side wall for storage, avoiding the glue flowing from the side wall to the front of the circuit board 52 and affecting the normal use of the internal electronic components.

[0045] In the embodiment, the rib 54 is arranged along the side wall of the mounting cavity 51, and the rib 54 and the inner wall of the mounting cavity 51 have a gap to form the glue storage groove 53. The circuit board 52 is fixed by the fixing structure, but the circuit board 52 is also arranged on the rib 54, so that there is no gap between the rib 54 and the circuit board 52, and the glue flows into the inside of the circuit board 52 from the edge of the glue storage groove 53, that is, the edge of the rib 54.

[0046] In combination Figure 6 In the embodiment, the fixing structure includes the first fixing column 55 arranged in the mounting cavity 51 and the first through hole 521 arranged at the corresponding position on the circuit board 52, and the first fixing column 55 is provided with the first connecting hole 551. The first connecting hole 551 is a screw hole, and the circuit board 52 is locked and fixed by the fastener, that is, the screw, which is arranged in the first through hole 521 and extends into the first connecting hole 551.

[0047] Further, the second fixing column 56 is arranged in the mounting cavity 51, the second fixing column 56 is provided with the second connecting hole 561, the circuit board 52 is provided with the connecting column 522 which can extend into the second connecting hole 561, and the spring 523 is arranged on the connecting column 522. The connecting column 522 and the second fixing column 56 are arranged along the length direction, and the insertion of the two achieves better connection between the circuit board 52 and the mounting cavity 51, and also supports the circuit board 52. The spring 523 on the connecting column plays a reverse buffering role for the insertion between the two, and also enables better fixed connection between the two.

[0048] In combination Figure 7 In the embodiment, the second water outlet pipeline 30 is a straight pipe structure, the second waterway structure includes the second water pipe 31 arranged in the straight pipe, and the third adapter 32 and the fourth adapter 33 connected to the two ends of the second water pipe 31. Similarly, the second water outlet pipeline 30 is outside, the third adapter 32 is inside, and both are rotationally connected to the middle part of the main pipeline 10. In this way, the second water outlet pipeline 30 and the second waterway structure inside can be rotated together relative to the main pipeline 10, so as to avoid the first water outlet pipeline 20, and when different water outlet pipelines are selected, the water outlet pipeline required to be used can be rotated to the required position to discharge water, so as to avoid interference with another water pipe, or the two water outlet pipelines can be rotated to different positions to discharge water at the same time.

[0049] Specifically, the mounting piece 40 is further provided with the second mounting hole 42 in the radial direction, the second mounting hole 42 is in communication with the first mounting hole 41, one end of the second water outlet pipeline 30 has the second through hole 34, the second through hole 34 of the second water outlet pipeline 30 is arranged outside the mounting piece 40 and can rotate relative to the mounting piece 40, one end of the second water outlet pipeline 30 is located below one end of the first water outlet pipeline 20, and one end of the third adapter 32 is rotationally connected to the second mounting hole 42. In this way, when the second water outlet pipeline 30 is rotated, the inner and outer structures are synchronously rotated, so as to ensure normal water discharge.

[0050] As shown in the figure, the first adapter 22 of the first waterway structure is centrally arranged relative to the main pipe 10 or the mounting 40, and the third adapter 32 of the second waterway structure is eccentrically arranged relative to the main pipe 10 or the mounting 40, and both the waterway structures can rotate relative to the mounting 40. In order to avoid the second water pipe 31 from being pulled off from the third adapter 32 or the fourth adapter 33 when the second waterway structure rotates due to the eccentricity, in the embodiment, one end of the second water pipe 31 is fixedly connected with the fourth adapter 33, and the other end of the second water pipe 31 is movably connected with the third adapter 32. In this way, the second water pipe 31 can move in the third adapter 32 to cooperate with the rotation of the third adapter 32.

[0051] In the embodiment, the second water outlet pipe 30 does not adopt the same control panel 50 structure as the first water outlet pipe 20. In other embodiments, the second water outlet pipe 30 can also be provided with the same control panel 50 as the first water outlet pipe 20.

[0052] In the embodiment, the first water pipe 21 and the second water pipe 31 are both stainless steel pipes. The use of stainless steel pipes can not only ensure the durability and quality of the water, but also make the first water pipe 21 and the second water pipe 31 thinner, so that the faucet 1 can be designed to be thinner.

[0053] In the embodiment, the faucet 1 is an intelligent faucet 1 with two water outlet pipes connected to different water sources. The integrated faucet 1 structure is optimized and saves space, and is convenient to use.

[0054] The above-described embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, rather than limit them; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or make equivalent replacements to some technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, and should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
