Detailed Implementation

[0029] To further explain the technical solution of this utility model, the following detailed description is provided through specific embodiments.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, this is an improved kitchen faucet according to the present invention, including a faucet body 1, a riser 2, a flexible hose 3, and a bracket 4. A valve body 11 is provided on the faucet body 1, and a water outlet 12 is provided on the top of the faucet body 1. One end of the bracket 4 is fixedly connected to the upper outer wall of the riser 2. A water outlet 31 is connected to the free end of the flexible hose 3, which forms an inverted U-shape due to its own elasticity. The flexible hose 3 is made of flexible plastic materials such as silicone or rubber, or may be covered with a metal sleeve on the outside. The water outlet 31 can be secured to the bracket 4. The riser 2 runs vertically through the faucet, and a first rotary joint 5 and a second rotary joint 6 are respectively connected to the upper and lower ends of the riser 2. The first rotary joint 5 is connected to the flexible hose 3, and the second rotary joint 6 is connected to the water outlet 12.

[0031] Thus, this improved kitchen faucet, through the provision of a first rotating joint 5 and a second rotating joint 6, allows the hose 3 and the bracket 4 to rotate independently. In particular, when the bracket 4 is rotated to the wall-facing position, the hose 3 can turn towards the user without being subjected to elastic twisting, making it very convenient to use. The water flow from the outlet 12 passes sequentially through the second rotating joint 6, the inner cavity of the riser 2, and the first rotating joint 6 before being delivered into the hose 3, and finally output through the outlet head 31.

[0032] The rotational resistance of the first rotary joint 5 is less than that of the second rotary joint 6. By setting the rotational resistance of the first rotary joint 5 to be less than that of the second rotary joint 6, when the hose 3 is rotated alone, the riser 2 and the bracket 4 will remain stationary and will not interfere with the bracket 4, thus improving the convenience of use.

[0033] Preferably, the first rotary joint 5 has a first water-passing inner core 51 and a first rotating sleeve 52, the first rotating sleeve 52 being sealed and rotatably fitted on the outside of the first water-passing inner core 51; the first water-passing inner core 51 is fixedly connected to one end of the hose 3 (if necessary, it can also be fixed with glue to prevent loosening), and the first rotating sleeve 52 extends into the upper end of the riser 2 and is sealed and fixedly connected to the riser 2; the second rotary joint 6 has a second water-passing inner core 61 and a second rotating sleeve 62, the second rotating sleeve 62 being sealed and rotatably fitted on the outside of the second water-passing inner core 61; the second water-passing inner core 61 is fixedly connected to the water outlet 12, and the second rotating sleeve 62 extends into the lower end of the riser 2 and is sealed and fixedly connected to the riser 2.

[0034] The rotational resistance of the first rotary joint 5 and the second rotary joint 6 can be controlled by adjusting the number or diameter of the third sealing ring 513 and the fourth sealing ring 612. By procuring rotary joints with different resistance values, the relationship between the rotational resistance of the first rotary joint 5 and the second rotary joint 6 can be controlled. Specifically, several third sealing rings 513 are arranged between the first water-passing inner core 51 and the first rotating sleeve 52, and several fourth sealing rings 612 are arranged between the second water-passing inner core 61 and the second rotating sleeve 62. The number of third sealing rings 513 is less than the number of fourth sealing rings 612, or the cross-sectional diameter of the third sealing ring 513 is smaller than the diameter of the fourth sealing ring 612. Of course, other feasible methods for controlling the rotational resistance of the first rotary joint 5 and the second rotary joint 6 can also be used.

[0035] Furthermore, the outer wall of the riser 2 has a first pin hole 21 and a second pin hole 22; the outer wall of the first rotating sleeve 52 is provided with a first sealing ring 521, and the outer wall of the second rotating sleeve 62 is provided with a second sealing ring 621; a first pin (not shown in the figure) is provided in the first pin hole 21, and the first pin is engaged with the first rotating sleeve 52, with the first pin hole 21 positioned higher than the first sealing ring 521 on the riser 2; a second pin (not shown in the figure) is provided in the second pin hole 22, and the second pin is engaged with the second rotating sleeve 62, with the second pin hole 22 positioned lower than the second sealing ring 621 on the riser 2. The engagement of the pins and pin holes secures the riser 2 to the first rotating sleeve 52 and the second rotating sleeve 62.

[0036] Preferably, the first water-passing inner core 51 is threadedly connected to the hose 3 (if necessary, glue can be applied at the connection to fix it and prevent loosening); the second water-passing inner core 61 is threadedly connected to the water outlet 12 through the second external thread 611 on the second water-passing inner core 61.

[0037] Specifically, the first water-passing inner core 51 has a first internal thread 511 and a first external thread 512. The hose 3 is connected to the first internal thread 511, and a decorative cover 514 is connected to the first external thread 512. The decorative cover 514 covers the upper end of the riser 2. The decorative cover 514 is connected to the first external thread 512 of the first water-passing inner core 51, covering the top of the first rotary joint 5 and the riser 2, making the overall appearance cleaner and preventing dirt from entering.

[0038] Preferably, the bracket 4 has a locking slot 41, and the water outlet 31 of the hose 3 can be locked onto the locking slot 41. Preferably, the bracket 4 is provided with a hook 42, which is detachably hung on the bracket, allowing the user to hang kitchen utensils, such as peelers, on the hook 42 for easy access. Furthermore, each hook 42 has a hook body located on the left and right sides of the bracket 4 respectively.

[0039] Compared with the existing technology, by adding a first rotary joint 5 between the hose 3 and the riser 2, the hose 3 and the support 4 can rotate independently, avoiding the hose 3 from being twisted and springing back. This makes it convenient for users to adjust the position of the hose 3 and the support 4 as needed, making it very convenient to use.

[0040] The above embodiments and figures are not intended to limit the product form and style of this utility model. Any appropriate changes or modifications made by those skilled in the art should be considered as not departing from the patent scope of this utility model.
