Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bathroom product technology, and more specifically, to a faucet mounting bracket. Background Technology

[0002] Faucets are common bathroom fixtures, typically mounted on countertops with through-holes, such as kitchen or sink countertops. Traditional faucet installation involves a threaded tube and a nut. One end of the threaded tube connects to the faucet body, while the other end passes through the through-hole in the countertop and is locked in place by the nut. During installation, the installer needs to tighten the nut under the countertop. However, the space under the countertop is limited by the sink and other fixtures, making it difficult to use wrenches or other tightening tools. This inconvenience hinders faucet installation and maintenance. Furthermore, under-counter installation requires the installer to squat for extended periods, a time-consuming and laborious process. Utility Model Content

[0003] This utility model discloses a faucet mounting bracket, which aims to improve the problems of inconvenient disassembly and assembly of existing faucet installation structures and the time-consuming and labor-intensive installation process.

[0004] The present invention adopts the following solution:

[0005] A faucet mounting bracket for connecting a faucet body to a countertop includes a main body, a locking element, and two semi-threaded blocks. The main body has a channel for a water supply pipe, with one end located on the countertop and the other end passing through a through hole in the countertop. The locking element is adapted to the main body and includes a rotating element and a locking block screwed to the rotating element. The rotating element is operablely driven to rotate, causing the locking block to move and abut against the bottom surface of the countertop. The two semi-threaded blocks are detachably connected to the main body, wherein at least one semi-threaded block is a movable block. The movable block is configured to be moved via an adjusting element, so that the diameter between the two semi-threaded blocks is adjustable to accommodate different faucet thread specifications.

[0006] As a further improvement, one of the said semi-tooth blocks is a fixed tooth block, which is inserted into the opening of the body and is axially limited by a telescopic pin.

[0007] As a further improvement, the main body is provided with a first hook portion on both sides of the opening, and the fixing block is provided with a second hook portion corresponding to the first hook portion. When the fixing block is inserted into the main body from top to bottom, the second hook portion engages with the first hook portion to limit the opening.

[0008] As a further improvement, the fixed tooth block is provided with a limiting groove, and the telescopic pin is installed on the side wall of the channel to cooperate with the limiting groove for limiting.

[0009] As a further improvement, the movable tooth block is provided with a mounting platform, the main body is provided with an assembly groove for fitting the mounting platform, the movable tooth block is provided with a first adjustment hole, the main body is provided with a second adjustment hole aligned with the first adjustment hole, and the adjustment member is used to connect the first adjustment hole and the second adjustment hole.

[0010] As a further improvement, the first adjusting hole is a threaded hole, and the adjusting element is a screw. When the screw is rotated in the locking direction, the moving tooth block moves toward the inner wall of the channel.

[0011] As a further improvement, a decorative cover is fitted onto one end of the main body located on the tabletop. The decorative cover has a mounting hole that can be rotated to align with the second adjustment hole.

[0012] As a further improvement, the body is provided with a mounting hole for connecting with the rotating component, the mounting hole being located near the side wall of the channel.

[0013] As a further improvement, the body is provided with a receiving groove for accommodating the locking block, the locking block being configured to retract inward into the receiving groove when entering or exiting the through hole, and to expand outward when locked with the table surface.

[0014] As a further improvement, the rotating component is a screw with a pin at its bottom for axial positioning, and the outer side of the locking block is similar in shape to the outer wall of the body.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the present invention can achieve the following technical effects:

[0016] 1. This application utilizes a locking mechanism to allow the mounting base to be installed above the countertop, avoiding limitations imposed by the space beneath the countertop. This facilitates the fixation of the faucet body, eliminating the need for under-counter locking. Assembly and disassembly can be performed from above the countertop, saving time and effort and simplifying faucet installation and maintenance. Specifically, the size of the faucet body on the countertop is larger than the size of the through hole. By driving a rotating component above the countertop, the locking block below the countertop moves to abut against the bottom surface of the countertop, thus fixing the body to the countertop. Furthermore, by driving an adjusting component, the moving threaded block moves, correspondingly adjusting the diameter between the two half-threaded blocks. This allows the threads on the two half-threaded blocks to be compatible with different faucet thread specifications, improving the compatibility of the mounting base and reducing development and manufacturing costs.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this utility model provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed utility model, but merely represents selected embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model. Example

[0039] Combination Figures 1 to 10 This embodiment provides a faucet mounting bracket for connecting the faucet body 1 and the countertop 2. It includes a body 3, a locking member 4, and two half-threaded blocks. The body 3 has a water supply pipe inlet and outlet channel 31, one end of which is located on the countertop 2, and the other end is set through the through hole of the countertop 2. The locking member 4 is adapted to the body 3 and includes a rotating member 41 and a locking block 42 screwed to the rotating member 41. The rotating member 41 is driven to rotate in an operable manner so that the locking block 42 moves to abut against the bottom surface of the countertop 2. The two half-threaded blocks are detachably connected to the body 3. At least one half of the threaded block is a movable threaded block 5. The movable threaded block 5 is configured to be driven to move via an adjusting member 51 so that the diameter between the two half-threaded blocks is adjustable, thereby adapting to different specifications of faucet threads.

[0040] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the locking member 4 allows the fixing seat to be installed above the countertop 2, avoiding the restriction of the movement space below the countertop 2. This facilitates the fixing of the faucet body 1, eliminating the need for under-counter locking. Assembly and disassembly can be performed above the countertop 2, saving time and effort and simplifying the installation and maintenance of the faucet body 1. Specifically, the size of the body 3 on the countertop 2 is larger than the size of the through hole. By driving the rotating member 41 to rotate above the countertop 2, the locking block 42 below the countertop 2 moves to abut against the bottom surface of the countertop 2, thus fixing the body 3 to the countertop 2. Furthermore, by driving the adjusting member 51 to move the moving threaded block 5, the diameter between the two half-threaded blocks is adjusted accordingly, allowing the threads on the two half-threaded blocks to be compatible with different specifications of faucet threads, improving the compatibility of the fixing seat and reducing development and manufacturing costs.

[0041] In a preferred embodiment, one half of the toothed block is a fixed toothed block 6, which is inserted into the opening 32 of the body 3 and is axially limited by a telescopic pin 33. Specifically, the fixed toothed block 6 is provided with a limiting groove 61, and the telescopic pin 33 is installed on the side wall of the channel 31 to cooperate with the limiting groove 61 for limiting. The structure of the telescopic pin 33 is prior art. By pressing the telescopic pin 33, the telescopic pin 33 retracts; after releasing the telescopic pin 33, it extends under the force of a spring. The telescopic pin 33 controls the fixing and separation of the fixed toothed block 6 from the body 3, making disassembly and assembly convenient. The opening 32 on the body 3 enables the rapid installation of multiple pipes in the faucet, solving the problem of difficult installation in small spaces. For example, when multiple pipes need to pass through the channel 31, the fixed toothed block 6 can be removed from the body 3 first, so that the opening 32 connects with the channel 31, increasing the cross-sectional area for pipes to pass through, thus facilitating pipe installation.

[0042] Furthermore, the opening 32 of the main body 3 is provided with first hook portions 321 on both sides, and the fixing block 6 is provided with second hook portions 62 corresponding to the first hook portions 321. When the fixing block 6 is inserted into the main body 3 from top to bottom, the second hook portion 62 engages with the first hook portion 321 to limit the opening of the opening 32. The second hook portion 62 serves to tighten the opening 32 of the main body 3, and the threads on the fixing block 6 serve to lock and fix the faucet body 1.

[0043] Based on the above embodiments, in an optional embodiment of this utility model, the movable toothed block 5 is provided with a mounting platform 52, the body 3 is provided with an assembly groove 34 for fitting the mounting platform 52, the movable toothed block 5 is provided with a first adjustment hole 53, and the body 3 is provided with a second adjustment hole 35 aligned with the first adjustment hole 53. An adjusting member 51 is used to connect the first adjustment hole 53 and the second adjustment hole 35. The mounting platform 52 on the movable toothed block 5 is aligned with the assembly groove 34 on the body 3, so that the movable toothed block 5 is axially limited. The setting of the mounting platform 52 and the assembly groove 34 can ensure the stable movement of the movable toothed block 5. Preferably, the first adjustment hole 53 is a threaded hole, and the adjusting member 51 is a screw. When the screw is rotated in the locking direction, the movable toothed block 5 moves towards the inner wall of the channel 31. During installation, the faucet body 1 is fitted into two half toothed blocks, and then the adjusting member 51 is rotated to move the movable toothed block 5 towards the faucet thread until it is locked with the faucet thread, so that the faucet body 1 is fixed.

[0044] In one embodiment, a decorative cover 7 is fitted onto one end of the main body 3 located on the countertop 2. The decorative cover 7 has a mounting hole 71, which can be rotated to align with the second adjustment hole 35. When the faucet needs to be disassembled or assembled, the mounting hole 71 on the decorative cover 7 is rotated to align with the second adjustment hole 35, so that a screwdriver can be inserted into the rotating adjustment component 51 along the mounting hole 71. After the faucet body 1 is installed, the mounting hole 71 on the decorative cover 7 is rotated to the back of the faucet body 1 to make the faucet more aesthetically pleasing.

[0045] In another embodiment, the body 3 is provided with a mounting hole 36 for connecting with the rotating member 41. The mounting hole 36 is located near the side wall of the channel 31, which can increase the cross-sectional area for the pipe to pass through, so that the pipe can pass through quickly. Preferably, the body 3 is provided with a receiving groove 37 for accommodating the locking block 42. The locking block 42 is configured to retract inward into the receiving groove 37 when entering and exiting the through hole of the platform 2, and to extend outward when locked with the platform 2. For example, the rotating member 41 is a screw, and a pin 43 for axial positioning is provided at its bottom. The outer side of the locking block 42 is similar in shape to the outer wall surface of the body 3. The locking block 42 is configured to retract inward and extend outward so that the locking block 42 can enter and exit the through hole with the body 3, facilitating the assembly and disassembly of the body 3. During installation, the locking block 42 can be retracted inward into the receiving groove 37, and then passed through the through hole of the countertop 2 along with the main body 3. The locking block 42 is then unfolded outward by rotating the screw. Continuing to rotate the screw causes the locking block 42 to move upward and abut against the bottom surface of the countertop 2, thereby fixing the main body 3. The pin 43 limits the screw axially, thus driving the locking block 42 to move when the screw is rotated. Furthermore, a sealing gasket 8 is fitted onto the main body 3. When the main body 3 is fixed, the sealing gasket 8 is pressed tightly against the top surface of the countertop 2 to prevent water from entering the through hole and avoid water leakage from below the countertop 2.

[0046] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions that fall within the scope of this utility model's concept are protected by this utility model.
