Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of faucet technology, and in particular to a self-cleaning and scale-preventing kitchen faucet. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of modern kitchen equipment, kitchen faucets are frequently used appliances, and their anti-scaling and cleaning performance directly affects user experience and service life. With differences in water hardness and long-term use, scale easily accumulates in the internal pipes, filters, and water outlet parts of faucets, leading to poor water flow, reduced water output efficiency, and even bacterial growth that affects water hygiene. Therefore, developing kitchen faucets with self-cleaning and anti-scaling functions has become an important technological direction for solving the above problems and improving product practicality.

[0003] In existing technologies, the anti-scaling design of kitchen faucets mostly relies on physical structure optimization or external cleaning methods. For example, some products reduce scale adhesion by using pipes with smooth inner walls, or install a removable aerator at the water outlet for easy manual cleaning; other technologies use magnetized water flow to change the structure of calcium and magnesium ions, thereby inhibiting scale formation.

[0004] However, existing traditional faucets require users to manually disassemble parts for soaking or scrubbing after limescale buildup, which is cumbersome and time-consuming. Especially when limescale is stubborn, disassembly is difficult and cleaning is not thorough. Therefore, a self-cleaning and scale-preventing kitchen faucet is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a self-cleaning and scale-preventing kitchen faucet, aiming to improve the problem that the existing technology requires users to manually disassemble parts for soaking or scrubbing, which is cumbersome and time-consuming.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A self-cleaning and scale-preventing kitchen faucet includes a faucet body, a spray head fixedly connected to the side wall of the faucet body, a cleaning component provided on the side wall of the faucet body, an installation sleeve fixedly connected to the side wall of the spray head, a filter screen provided below the installation sleeve, and a fixing component provided inside the installation sleeve.

[0008] The cleaning assembly includes a storage tank containing citric acid solution. The side wall of the storage tank is fixedly connected to the side wall of the faucet body. An inlet pipe is fixedly connected to the side wall of the storage tank, and a piston is fixedly connected to one end of the inlet pipe.

A delivery pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom of the storage tank, and one end of the delivery pipe is fixedly connected to the inside of the faucet body.

[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0010] The fixing component includes an insert block and a fixing sleeve. The side wall of the insert block is fixedly connected to the side wall of the filter screen, the side wall of the fixing sleeve is fixedly connected to the inside of the mounting sleeve, and the side wall of the insert block is slidably connected to the inside of the fixing sleeve.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0012] The connecting pipe is provided with a second one-way valve on its side wall, and the conveying pipe is provided with a first one-way valve on its side wall.

[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0014] The fixed sleeve is slidably connected to the inside of the fixed sleeve, and a clamping block is fixedly connected to the side wall of the sliding sleeve. The clamping block engages with the insertion block, and the side wall of the clamping block is slidably connected inside the fixed sleeve.

[0015] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0016] A connecting block is fixedly connected inside the sliding sleeve, and a rotating plate is rotatably connected to the side wall of the connecting block.

[0019] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0020] A spring is provided inside the fixing sleeve. One end of the spring is fixedly connected inside the fixing sleeve, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the side wall of the connecting block.

[0021] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0022] 1. In this utility model, pressing the air bladder increases the air pressure inside the storage tank. Under the action of air pressure, the citric acid solution in the storage tank flows into the faucet body through the delivery pipe. After mixing with the main water flow, it is sprayed out from the spray head, making the citric acid solution mix with the water flow to form clean water with descaling function. This flushes the internal pipes of the faucet, dissolves limescale, and prevents its deposition. This solves the problem that some kitchen faucets require users to manually disassemble parts for soaking or scrubbing after limescale buildup, which is cumbersome and time-consuming. Especially when the limescale is stubborn, disassembly is difficult and cleaning is not thorough. The above structure improves the cleaning efficiency of the faucet.

[0023] 2. In this utility model, by pressing the filter screen inside the fixed sleeve, the sliding rod is disengaged from the slot of the clamping plate. The spring rebounds and pushes the sliding sleeve and clamping block outward, releasing the engagement of the insert block. The filter screen can then be removed for cleaning. This solves the problem that some kitchen faucets have internal filter screens connected by screws, which require external tools when disassembling and have low disassembly efficiency. The above structure improves the efficiency of filter screen disassembly and assembly. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0031] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0032] Reference Figures 1-2The present invention provides an embodiment of a self-cleaning and scale-preventing kitchen faucet, comprising a faucet body 1, which carries and guides water flow. A spray head 2 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the faucet body 1, which directs water flow to a designated area for rinsing. A cleaning component is provided on the side wall of the faucet body 1 to effectively reduce scale buildup and extend the faucet's service life. An installation sleeve 11 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the spray head 2, and a filter screen 12 is provided below the installation sleeve 11. The filter screen 12 is used to filter impurities in the water, such as mud, sand, and rust, to prevent these impurities from entering the faucet or being sprayed out and affecting water quality. A fixing component is provided inside the installation sleeve 11 to stabilize the filter screen 12 and prevent it from shifting or falling off under the impact of water flow, ensuring that the filter screen 12 can continue to perform its filtering function.

[0033] The cleaning component includes a reservoir 3 containing a citric acid solution. Citric acid dissolves limescale and reacts chemically with limescale components such as calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate inside the faucet, breaking them down into soluble substances, thus removing limescale. The reservoir 3 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the faucet body 1. An inlet pipe 4 is also fixedly connected to the side wall of the reservoir 3, supplying the reservoir with citric acid solution. A piston 5 is fixedly connected to one end of the inlet pipe 4 to seal it and prevent leakage of the citric acid solution from the reservoir 3. A connecting pipe 6 is fixedly connected inside the reservoir 3, with an air bladder 7 fixedly connected to its upper end. The air bladder 7 deforms when pressed, squeezing out internal air. The solution is introduced into the storage tank 3, thereby increasing the air pressure inside the storage tank 3 and providing power for the delivery of citric acid solution. A delivery pipe 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the storage tank 3. The delivery pipe 8 is used to deliver the citric acid solution in the storage tank 3 to the inside of the faucet body 1. One end of the delivery pipe 8 is fixedly connected to the inside of the faucet body 1, so that the citric acid solution can be accurately injected into the water flow channel and fully mixed with the water flow to form clean water. A one-way valve 2 10 is provided on the side wall of the connecting pipe 6. The function of the one-way valve 2 10 is to prevent the solution and air in the storage tank 3 from flowing back and to ensure that the air pressure can stably drive the solution flow. A one-way valve 1 9 is provided on the side wall of the delivery pipe 8. The function of the one-way valve 1 9 is to prevent the water in the faucet from flowing back into the storage tank 3 and to ensure the cleanliness and effectiveness of the citric acid solution.

[0034] Reference Figures 3-5The fixing assembly includes a plug 13 and a fixing sleeve 14. The plug 13 provides a structural carrier for the filter screen 12 to connect with the fixing sleeve 14, thus fixing the filter screen 12 inside the mounting sleeve 11. This ensures stable installation of the filter screen 12 and prevents it from shaking under the impact of water flow. The side wall of the fixing sleeve 14 is fixedly connected to the inside of the mounting sleeve 11, and the side wall of the plug 13 is slidably connected to the inside of the fixing sleeve 14. The plug 13 slides in conjunction with the fixing sleeve 14, facilitating the installation and removal of the filter screen 12 and allowing for quick and easy installation and removal. Insertion or removal: A sliding sleeve 15 is slidably connected inside the fixed sleeve 14. A clamping block 16 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the sliding sleeve 15. The clamping block 16 engages with the insert block 13. The clamping block 16 is used to clamp the insert block 13 under the action of the sliding sleeve 15, firmly fixing the filter screen 12 inside the mounting sleeve 11, preventing the filter screen 12 from falling off, and ensuring that the filter screen 12 stably performs its filtering function. The side wall of the clamping block 16 is slidably connected inside the fixed sleeve 14. The clamping block 16 moves in conjunction with the fixed sleeve 14 to achieve precise control of the clamping force and position of the clamping block 16. This allows the clamping block 16 to accurately engage or disengage the insert block 13. A connecting block 17 is fixedly connected inside the sliding sleeve 15, and a rotating plate 18 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the connecting block 17. A locking plate 20 is fixedly connected inside the fixed sleeve 14. A sliding rod 19 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating plate 18, and the side wall of the sliding rod 19 is slidably connected between the locking plates 20. The sliding rod 19 cooperates with the locking plates 20 to perform sliding and engaging movements, achieving precise control over the rotation and locking state of the rotating plate 18. This makes the fixing and unlocking operations of the fixed components more reliable. The fixed sleeve 14 is internally equipped with... There is a spring 21. The function of the spring 21 is to provide elastic force for the sliding sleeve 15 to return to its original position after it is moved by force, so that the sliding sleeve 15 can automatically return to its initial position when no external force is applied. One end of the spring 21 is fixedly connected to the inside of the fixed sleeve 14, and the other end of the spring 21 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the connecting block 17. The spring 21 cooperates with the connecting block 17 and is compressed or stretched when the sliding sleeve 15 moves the connecting block 17. When the external force disappears, the spring 21 pushes the connecting block 17 and the sliding sleeve 15 to return to their original positions, thereby achieving the effect of the clamping block 16 automatically clamping the insert block 13.

[0035] Working principle: When the faucet needs cleaning, citric acid solution is injected into the storage tank 3 through the inlet pipe 4. The user presses the air bladder 7, and the air inside the air bladder 7 enters the upper part of the storage tank 3 through the connecting pipe 6, increasing the air pressure inside the tank. Under the action of air pressure, the citric acid solution in the storage tank 3 flows into the faucet body 1 through the delivery pipe 8, mixes with the main water flow, and is sprayed out from the spray head 2, so that the citric acid solution and water flow are mixed to form clean water with descaling function, which washes the filter screen 12 and the internal pipes of the faucet, dissolving scale and preventing deposition. One-way valve 9 ensures that the solution can only flow from the storage tank 3 to the faucet body 1, preventing water backflow. One-way valve 10 prevents air backflow when the air bladder 7 is released, maintaining stable air pressure in the storage tank 3. When installing the filter screen 12, insert the insert block 13 on the side wall of the filter screen 12 into the fixing sleeve 14 inside the mounting sleeve 11. The insert block 13 pushes the clamping block 16 and the sliding sleeve 15 to slide inward into the fixing sleeve 14, compressing the spring 21. The sliding sleeve 15 drives the connecting block 17 to move, causing the rotating plate 18 to rotate around the connecting block 17. The slide rod 19 at the other end of the rotating plate 18 slides along the inclined surface of the clamping plate 20 and is engaged in the slot, thereby locking the clamping block 16 onto the insert block 13 and completing the fixing effect of the filter screen 12. When disassembly is required, press the filter screen 12 inward into the fixing sleeve 14 to disengage the slide rod 19 from the slot of the clamping plate 20. The spring 21 rebounds and pushes the sliding sleeve 15 and the clamping block 16 outward, releasing the engagement of the insert block 13. The filter screen 12 can then be removed for cleaning.
