Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of faucet technology, specifically to a novel valve core for faucets. Background Technology
[0002] like Figure 1 As shown, in the existing valve core, the groove for installing the sealing ring is opened on the radial side of the valve core. Although it can achieve a relative seal between the faucet housing and the valve core, when the valve core slides down along the mounting cavity, the friction between the sealing ring and the inner wall of the mounting cavity causes a large installation resistance of the valve core. When the installation pressure is too high, the sealing ring is easy to fall off from the groove. In particular, as the valve core enters the mounting cavity, the sealing ring will twist in the groove, which can easily cause damage to the sealing ring. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a new type of valve core for faucets to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a novel valve core for a faucet, comprising an installation cavity formed on the faucet housing; the installation cavity further comprises a valve core and a support platform for supporting the valve core; a sealing ring is provided on the side of the valve core facing the support platform, and the sealing ring fills the gap between the support platform and the facing surfaces of the valve core to achieve a seal between the valve core and the faucet housing.
[0005] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, it also includes a pressure cap, which is connected to the mounting cavity to press the valve core onto the support platform.
[0006] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model: the valve core is further provided with a groove on the side facing the support platform.
[0007] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model: the pressure cap and the inner wall surface of the mounting cavity are connected by threads.
[0008] The beneficial effects of this utility model using the above technical solution are as follows: Since the sealing ring is directly installed between the supporting platform and the opposing surfaces of the valve core, it does not damage the sealing ring regardless of how the valve core is installed, thus ensuring a smooth and convenient installation. Therefore, although the device has a simple structure, simple structural optimization can indeed bring tangible benefits, namely, reducing damage to the sealing ring during installation, thereby extending the service life of the sealing ring and consequently extending the service life of the faucet.

[0014] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model. In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper," "lower," "front," "upper surface," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as limiting this utility model.
[0015] Please see Figure 2-4 The present invention provides an embodiment of a novel valve core for a faucet, comprising a mounting cavity 7 formed in the faucet housing 1; the mounting cavity 7 further comprises a valve core 3 and a support platform 2 for supporting the valve core 3; the side of the valve core 3 facing the support platform 2 is provided with a sealing ring 6, and the sealing ring 6 fills the gap between the opposing surfaces of the support platform 2 and the valve core 3 to achieve a seal between the valve core 3 and the faucet housing 1.
[0016] In summary, because the sealing ring 6 is directly installed between the supporting platform 2 and the opposing surfaces of the valve core 3, it does not cause damage to the sealing ring 6 regardless of how the valve core 3 is installed, thus ensuring a seal is achieved. Furthermore, the sealing ring 6 does not interfere with the movement of the valve core 3 during installation, making the installation of the valve core 3 simple and convenient. Therefore, although the device has a simple structure, simple structural optimization can indeed bring tangible benefits, namely, reducing damage to the sealing ring during installation, thereby extending the service life of the sealing ring and consequently extending the service life of the faucet.
[0017] Furthermore, it also includes a pressure cap 4, which is connected to the mounting cavity 7 to press the valve core 3 onto the support platform 2. Therefore, by connecting the pressure cap 4 to the mounting cavity 7, the valve core 3 is further fixed within the mounting cavity 7, thereby enabling the valve core 3 to operate stably and reliably. Specifically, the pressure cap 4 and the inner wall of the mounting cavity 7 are connected by threads. This simplifies the connection method between the pressure cap 4 and the mounting cavity 7, further reducing the overall assembly cost.
[0018] In addition, the valve core 3 is provided with a groove 5 on the side facing the support platform 2. Therefore, the groove 5 provides a space for the sealing ring 6 to be accommodated. After the sealing ring 6 is installed in the groove 5, the valve core 3 is then assembled into the mounting cavity 7 to avoid uneven force on the sealing ring 6 when it is under pressure, and to prevent the sealing ring 6 from falling off during the installation of the valve core 3.
[0019] The embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but this utility model is not limited to the described embodiments. For those skilled in the art, various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model, and these variations still fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
