Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of faucets, and in particular to a faucet repositioning installation structure. Background Technology

[0002] A faucet is a common name for a water valve, a device used to control the flow of water and regulate the amount of water. It is widely used in homes, businesses, and industries. Faucets are constantly being updated and replaced, evolving from old-fashioned cast iron faucets to electroplated knob faucets, and then to a wide variety of types such as stainless steel single-temperature single-control faucets, stainless steel dual-temperature dual-control faucets, and semi-automatic kitchen faucets.

[0003] Based on their installation method, faucets are mainly divided into two categories: freestanding faucets and wall-mounted faucets. These are designed to meet different installation needs and working conditions, and to satisfy installation requirements on various mounting surfaces. However, current faucets on the market only support either freestanding or wall-mounted installation, forcing manufacturers to produce different types of faucets for different installation methods. This significantly increases production costs and reduces the versatility of product components. The existing faucet structure also greatly limits its adaptability to different scenarios, making it difficult to flexibly adjust to specific usage situations, thus significantly reducing ease of use. Therefore, this improved solution was developed to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a faucet repositioning installation structure that can change the installation method of the faucet, making it adaptable to different installation scenarios, thereby improving the flexibility of product installation and greatly reducing the production cost of enterprises.

[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a faucet repositioning installation structure, including a faucet body, the faucet body including a main body section and a repositioning section having an installation end and being movably connected to the main body section, the main body section and the repositioning section being movably connected to have a first position and a second position, when in the first position, the main body section and the repositioning section are in the same straight line, when in the second position, the main body section and the repositioning section are perpendicular to each other.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the faucet is given a degree of freedom of movement through a movable connection. For vertical installation, the movable connection is switched to the first position, ensuring the main body and the switching section are aligned in a straight line, thus meeting the vertical installation requirements. For wall installation, the movable connection is switched to the second position, making the main body and the switching section perpendicular to each other, thus meeting the wall installation requirements. This structural design allows for flexible installation of the faucet, adapting it to different scenarios and improving the product's flexibility and versatility, while also significantly reducing production costs for businesses.

[0007] The configuration is further defined as follows: the main body segment and the transposition segment are rotatably connected, and the rotatable connection restricts the separation of the main body segment and the transposition segment.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the main body section and the transposition section can move relative to each other through a rotational connection, thus giving the faucet a degree of freedom of movement.

[0009] The configuration is further defined as follows: a limiting component is provided between the main body segment and the transposition segment, the limiting component having a first limiting position and a second limiting position, the first limiting position corresponding to a first position and the second limiting position corresponding to a second position.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the limiting component restricts the degree of freedom of movement between the main body segment and the switching segment, so that they can better switch between the first position and the second position.

[0011] The setting is further configured such that the limiting component includes a limiting stroke groove formed in the main body segment and a limiting block that rotates within the limiting stroke groove with the shifting segment.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the shifting section drives the limiting block to rotate in the limiting stroke groove, thereby limiting the movement stroke of the main body section and the shifting section. When the limiting block abuts against one end of the limiting stroke groove, it is in the first position; when it abuts against the other end, it is in the second position.

[0013] A further provision is provided: a locking component is provided between the main body segment and the transposition segment to restrict the rotation of both the main body segment and the transposition segment.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the locking component is set to better fix the main body section and the shifting section in the first or second position, thereby ensuring the structural stability of the faucet after adjustment.

[0015] The locking assembly is further configured to include a locking bolt threaded to the transposition section and abutting against the main body section.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotating locking bolt is pressed against the main body section, thereby achieving the locking between the transposition section and the main body section.

[0017] The configuration is further improved so that when in the first position and the second position, the main body segment has a positioning groove for the locking bolt to be inserted at the position corresponding to the locking bolt.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the positioning groove combined with the locking bolt structure can better restrict the relative rotation of the transposition section and the main body section while tightening, thus achieving a better fixing effect.

[0019] A further configuration is provided: a decorative cover is slidably fitted onto the transposition segment, and a detachable positioning component is provided between the decorative cover and the transposition segment to position the decorative cover at the installation end.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, in order to better ensure that the decorative cover fits snugly and covers the installation surface, a detachable positioning component is used to position the decorative cover, so that the decorative cover has better practical function.

[0021] The detachable positioning component is further configured as follows: an inner magnetic block is fixedly disposed on the inner wall of the transposition section and extends toward the installation end, and an outer magnetic block is fixedly disposed on the decorative cover and adsorbed with the inner magnetic block.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the inner and outer magnetic blocks are attracted and fixed to position the decorative cover. The structure is simple, and the position of the decorative cover can be adjusted in real time by the extended inner magnetic block to achieve a better concealment effect.

[0023] The outer magnetic block is further configured to be arranged in a ring around the center of the decorative cover.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, there is no need to adjust the position of the decorative cover circumferentially, making the operation more convenient.

[0025] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects: it can change the installation method of faucets, making them adaptable to different installation scenarios, thereby improving the flexibility of product installation and greatly reducing the production costs of enterprises.
