[0015] To further explain the technical solution of this utility model, a detailed description is provided below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0016] This utility model provides a universal decorative cover that can distinguish between hot and cold water, such as... Figs. 1-3 As shown, the device includes a decorative sleeve fitted over the water inlet pipe of a faucet. The decorative sleeve has a first non-closed-loop component 1 and a second non-closed-loop component 2. Both the first and second non-closed-loop components are injection-molded, stainless steel, or aluminum. The inner walls of both components are inclined surfaces at one end along the axial direction of the decorative sleeve. The first and second non-closed-loop components fit together to form a hollow closed-loop sleeve. The hollow space of the hollow closed-loop sleeve is flared. Preferably, the first and second non-closed-loop components 1 and 2 have a semi-circular structure, positioned opposite each other, with the first non-closed-loop component 1 on the left and the second non-closed-loop component 2 on the right. These components form a vertically penetrating circular ring. The hollow space of this circular ring has a truncated cone structure that gradually narrows from top to bottom or bottom to top.
[0017] The outer side of the two end faces of the first non-closed loop member 1 extends towards the second non-closed loop member, and the two extension buckles 11 are oppositely arranged. The opposite opposite sides of the two extension buckles 11 are oppositely provided with limiting protrusions. The outer side walls of the two end portions of the second non-closed loop member 2 are recessed with embedded grooves 21 for embedding the extension buckles. The embedded grooves 21 are provided with positioning holes corresponding to the limiting protrusions. Preferably, the outer side of the right two end faces of the first non-closed loop member 1 is provided with a strip-shaped block body extending in the upward and downward directions. The outer side wall of the strip-shaped block body is an arc surface matched with the outer side wall of the first non-closed loop member 1. The thickness of the strip-shaped block body is smaller than the thickness of the end of the first non-closed loop member 1. The length of the strip-shaped block body in the upward and downward directions is smaller than the length of the first non-closed loop member 1 in the axial direction. The strip-shaped block body is the extension buckle 11. The opposite opposite sides of the two strip-shaped block bodies (i.e. the inner side walls of the strip-shaped block bodies) are provided with protruding columns 111 extending in the upward and downward directions. The protruding columns are strip-shaped square block bodies. The opposite opposite sides of the two protruding columns (i.e. the inner side walls of the protruding columns) are provided with guide bosses 112 in a tetrahedron structure. The four side surfaces of the guide bosses 112 are inclined surfaces. The four inclined surfaces form a four-prism space expanding from the inside to the outside. The protruding column 111 and the guide boss 112 constitute the limiting protrusion. The outer side walls of the left two end portions of the second non-closed loop member 2 are recessed with recessed grooves extending along the arc direction of the second non-closed loop member and reaching the left end face of the second non-closed loop member. The recessed grooves are the embedded grooves 21. The groove bottom right side of the recessed groove is provided with a strip-shaped through hole 211 extending in the upward and downward directions and communicating with the second non-closed loop member. The strip-shaped through hole 211 is the positioning hole.
[0018] The groove wall of the extension buckle 11 and the embedded groove 21 is provided with a concave-convex matching positioning structure preventing the extension buckle from coming out of the embedded groove. Preferably, the inner groove wall of the embedded groove 21 (i.e. the right inner groove wall of the recessed groove) is recessed with a strip-shaped recess 212 extending in the upward and downward directions. The strip-shaped recess is preferably a concave arc groove. The side of the extension buckle 11 facing the strip-shaped recess 212 is provided with a strip-shaped protrusion 113 opposite to the strip-shaped recess. The strip-shaped protrusion 113 is preferably a convex arc strip. The length of the strip-shaped protrusion 113 is the same as the length of the extension buckle 11. The strip-shaped recess and the strip-shaped protrusion constitute the positioning structure.
[0019] In application, because the first non-closed loop member and the second non-closed loop member can deform, when the extension buckle 11 is inserted into the recessed groove and slides to the right along the recessed groove, the guide boss 112 will press the second non-closed loop member. When the guide boss 112 slides to the strip-shaped through hole 211, the guide boss 112 is released, the second non-closed loop member is reset, the guide boss 112 is clamped into the strip-shaped through hole 211, the guide boss 112 is positioned in the strip-shaped through hole 211, and the four inclined surfaces of the guide boss can guide the guide boss to slide into the strip-shaped through hole 211, realizing the clamping of the first non-closed loop member and the second non-closed loop member.
[0020] After the shower faucet is installed, a gap is generated between the decorative cover of the shower faucet itself and the wall, the first non-closed loop part and the second non-closed loop part are directly buckled together and sleeved on the decorative cover of the shower faucet, and the decorative cover of the new type is matched with the wall to hide the gap.
[0021] In the new type, the outer side wall of the hollow closed loop sleeve body is concavely provided with a plurality of concave grooves which are distributed along the circumferential direction of the hollow closed loop sleeve body, that is, the outer side wall of the first closed loop part 1 is concavely provided with a plurality of strip-shaped recesses 12 which extend along the up-down direction, the strip-shaped recesses 12 are circular arc-shaped, and each strip-shaped recess is distributed along the circumference of the first closed loop part 1, the side wall of the second closed loop part 2 is concavely provided with a plurality of strip-shaped recesses 22 which extend along the up-down direction, the strip-shaped recesses 22 are circular arc-shaped, and each strip-shaped recess 22 is distributed along the circumference of the second closed loop part 2, the strip-shaped recesses 12 and the strip-shaped recesses 22 are the concave grooves, and the anti-slip effect can be achieved by using the concave grooves.
[0022] The product form of the new type is not limited to the drawings and examples, and any appropriate changes or modifications of the similar ideas should be considered as not deviating from the patent category of the new type.
