[0002] A faucet is a common term for a water valve, used to control the flow of water and thus saving water. Faucets are constantly being updated, evolving from old-fashioned cast iron faucets to electroplated knob faucets, and then to stainless steel single-temperature single-control faucets, stainless steel dual-temperature dual-control faucets, and semi-automatic kitchen faucets. Now, more and more consumers consider factors such as material, function, and design when purchasing faucets; the cleaning effect is also a major factor for consumers. However, there is still a certain amount of finished products and spare parts stocked for traditional faucets without filters. Therefore, utilizing these spare parts and making simple modifications to produce finished faucets with filters is a key research direction for faucet manufacturers.

[0003] In view of this, the inventor conducted in-depth research on the aforementioned deficiencies in the prior art, which led to the creation of this case. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide a faucet filter device and a faucet, which is used to modify the existing faucet structure to obtain a faucet with a filtering function.

Detailed Implementation

[0030] To further explain the technical solution of this utility model, the following detailed description is provided through specific embodiments.

[0031] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, this utility model relates to a faucet filter device, which includes a mounting base 1. The upper part of the mounting base 1 is connected to an upper connector 11 for connecting a water outlet pipe 5, and the lower part of the mounting base 1 is connected to a lower connector 12 for connecting a faucet body 6. A filter chamber 4 is connected to the side of the mounting base 1, and a filter element 41 is provided in the filter chamber 4.

[0032] Thus, the faucet filter device and faucet involved in this utility model are connected to the faucet body 6 via the lower connector 12 and the water outlet pipe 5 via the upper connector 11. In this way, the faucet filter device is connected between the originally connected water outlet pipe 5 and the faucet body 6, which can be adapted to the original faucet structure and is very convenient to install.

[0033] The rotary joint has an inner core and a rotating sleeve rotatably connected to the outside of the outer core. The lower part of the inner core is provided with an external thread, and the rotating sleeve is provided with a buckle to connect with the positioning hole on the tubular component such as the water outlet pipe 5. Specifically, the upper joint 11 is connected to the first rotary joint 2, the rotating sleeve of the first rotary joint 2 is sleeved with the water outlet pipe 5, and the lower part of the inner core of the second rotary joint 3 is connected to the second internal thread 61 that is originally present in the faucet body 6; installation can be achieved without changing the structure of the faucet body 6 and the water outlet pipe 5.

[0034] The upper connector 11 has a first internal thread 111 formed therein, and the first external thread 21 at the lower part of the inner core of the first rotary connector 2 is threadedly connected to the first internal thread 111; the lower connector 12 has a insertion interface 121 formed therein, and the rotating sleeve of the second rotary connector 3 extends into and is fixed in the insertion interface 121.

[0035] Preferably, the filter chamber 4 has an opening 42 for replacing the filter element 41 at the end away from the mounting base 1, and an end cap 43 is provided at the opening 42. The filter chamber 4 has an end cap 43, which allows for easy replacement of the filter element 41 after removal. Furthermore, the end cap 43 is threaded to the opening 42, and a coin slot 431 is formed on the end cap 43 for rotating the end cap 43. Thus, a coin can be used as a tool to open and close the end cap 43.

[0036] Preferably, the filter chamber 4 is cylindrical, and its axis is inclined to the horizontal plane. One end of the opening 42 of the filter chamber 4 is higher than the end connecting the filter chamber 4 to the mounting base 1. This makes it less likely for the filter element 41 to fall out when the end cover 43 is opened, and makes replacement more convenient. If ease of installation of the filter element 41 is not a concern, the filter chamber 4 can also be angled downwards.

[0037] Preferably, the filter chamber 4 is threadedly connected to the mounting base 1, and the filter chamber 4 is made of a transparent material. This allows the user to easily see the filtration status of the filter element 41 and replace the filter element 41 in a timely manner.

[0038] Preferably, the mounting base 1 has a partition 13 located at the bottom of the inner cavity of the filter chamber 4. The partition 13 has an outlet hole 131 and an inlet hole 133. The inlet hole 133 communicates with the lower connector 12, and the outlet hole 131 communicates with the upper connector 11. Furthermore, the outlet hole 131 is located at the center of the partition 13, and the inlet hole 133 is located on the outer periphery of the outlet hole 131. An annular wall 132 is formed around the outlet hole 131, and the filter element 41 is connected to the annular wall 132. In this way, water flows from the outside of the filter element 41 to the inside of the filter element 41 and exits through the outlet hole 131. Scale and rust in the water are filtered onto the outside of the filter element 41, resulting in a visually obvious effect.

[0039] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, this utility model also provides a faucet, including a faucet body 6, a water outlet pipe 5, and the aforementioned faucet filter device; a valve body is provided inside the faucet body 6, which is used to control the opening and closing of the water circuit to control whether water is supplied to the water outlet pipe 5; a second internal thread 61 is provided on the top of the faucet body 6, and the second external thread 31 of the lower part of the inner core of the second rotary joint 3 is threadedly connected to the second internal thread 61; the rotating sleeve of the first rotary joint 2 extends into and is fixed inside the water outlet pipe 5.

[0040] Compared with the prior art, this utility model, by setting the upper connector 11 and the lower connector 12 to connect the water outlet pipe 5 and the faucet body 6 respectively, can be adapted to connect the original faucet body 6 and the water outlet pipe 5, thus producing a faucet with a filtering function at a low cost.

[0041] 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.
