Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of faucet technology, specifically a faucet. Background Technology

[0002] Existing faucets are commonly used water flow control devices in kitchens, bathrooms, and various other places. They are widely used in homes, hotels, office buildings, and other scenarios. Their core function is to turn the water flow on or off and to regulate the flow rate, meeting basic water needs such as daily cleaning and water access. They are an indispensable basic water accessory in living and working environments.

[0003] Current faucets have the following drawbacks: the faucet body and the components used to connect to the water pipe are an inseparable unit. When the faucet needs to be replaced or repaired, the entire faucet must be completely removed from the water pipe inside the wall. This not only requires disassembling the threaded connection between the faucet and the water pipe, but also easily damages the water pipe interface or the wall surface due to improper force during the operation. Ordinary users cannot complete this independently, resulting in difficult and time-consuming repair operations. During assembly, Teflon tape is also required to ensure a seal between the faucet and the water pipe. Furthermore, the sealing structure of existing faucets has low sealing reliability and a high risk of leakage. Therefore, a new type of faucet is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing faucets, a new type of faucet is proposed.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows: The faucet of this utility model includes a faucet, the faucet includes a tap and a connecting part that is threaded to a water pipe, a sealing element is provided between the tap and the connecting part, and a squeezing cylinder is provided on the tap. When the tap and the connecting part are assembled, the squeezing cylinder squeezes the sealing element to deform and fill the gap between the tap and the connecting part.

[0006] Preferably, the seal includes a ring portion and a cylindrical portion.

[0007] Preferably, the faucet is provided with a first flange portion, and the first flange portion has an annular groove with a shape that matches the annular portion on the side near the connecting component, and the extrusion cylinder extends into the cylinder portion.

[0008] Preferably, the outer diameter of the extrusion cylinder is larger than the inner diameter of the cylinder.

[0009] Preferably, one end of the extrusion cylinder insertion section has a chamfer.

[0010] Preferably, the connecting component includes a connecting pipe threaded to a water pipe, and a second flange portion connected to the first flange portion to fix the faucet to the connecting component.

[0011] Preferably, the second flange is provided with an arc-shaped positioning frame, the inner wall shape of which matches the outer edge shape of the first flange.

[0012] Preferably, both the first flange and the second flange are provided with screw fixing holes, and screws are inserted into the screw fixing holes to fix the two together.

[0013] Preferably, a pad is provided between the second flange and the wall.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] This utility model provides a faucet. By adopting a detachable structure design for the faucet and connecting parts, the connecting parts can be pre-fixed to the water pipe and the wall. When the faucet is replaced or repaired in the future, only the screws need to be removed to separate the faucet from the connecting parts. There is no need to disassemble the connection between the connecting parts and the water pipe. There is also no need to wrap the faucet with Teflon tape during assembly, which greatly reduces the difficulty and time of maintenance operations.

[0016] By designing a sealing element with a dual structure of ring and cylinder, and using a compression cylinder with an outer diameter larger than the inner diameter of the cylinder, the compression cylinder can force the cylinder to expand radially and the ring to deform under axial pressure during assembly, forming a double sealing barrier of radial and axial forces. This improves the sealing reliability between the faucet and the connecting parts and effectively reduces the risk of leakage.

[0017] With the help of the arc-shaped positioning frame on the second flange that matches the outer edge shape of the first flange, the faucet and connecting parts can be pre-positioned quickly, which greatly improves the installation efficiency and ensures that the screw tightening force is evenly transmitted to the seal, further ensuring the stability of the sealing effect.

[0023] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Specific implementation examples are given below.

[0025] Please see Figures 1-2 The present invention discloses a faucet, comprising a faucet 1, the faucet 1 including a faucet 101 and a connecting component 102 threadedly connected to a water pipe 01. The connecting component 102 includes a connecting pipe 1021 threadedly connected to the water pipe 01 and a second flange 1022 connected to a first flange 1012 to fix the faucet 101 and the connecting component 102 together. A sealing element 2 is provided between the faucet 101 and the connecting component 102. A compression cylinder 1011 is provided on the faucet 101. When the faucet 101 is assembled with the connecting component 102, the compression cylinder... The pressure cylinder 1011 compresses the sealing element 2 to deform it and fill the gap between the faucet 101 and the connecting component 102. The sealing element 2 includes a ring portion 201 and a cylindrical portion 202. The faucet 101 is provided with a first flange portion 1012. The first flange portion 1012 has an annular groove 3 with a shape that matches the ring portion 201 on the side near the connecting component 102. The pressure cylinder 1011 extends into the cylindrical portion 202. The outer diameter of the pressure cylinder 1011 is larger than the inner diameter of the cylindrical portion 202. The end of the pressure cylinder 1011 inserted into the cylindrical portion 202 has a chamfer 4.

[0026] An arc-shaped positioning frame 5 is provided on the second flange 1022. The inner wall shape of the arc-shaped positioning frame 5 matches the outer edge shape of the first flange 1012. Both the first flange 1012 and the second flange 1022 are provided with screw fixing holes 6. Screws 7 are inserted into the screw fixing holes 6 to fix the two together. A soft pad 8 is provided between the second flange 1022 and the wall 02. The faucet 101, the first flange 1012, the extrusion cylinder 1011, the connecting pipe 1021, and the water pipe 01 are connected.

[0027] Working principle: First, wrap several turns of Teflon tape around the threaded part of the connecting pipe 1021. Then, thread the connecting pipe 1021 of the connecting component 102 through the hole in the wall 02 and connect it to the water pipe 01, so that the connecting component 102 is initially fixed in a position close to the wall 02. At this time, the second flange 1022 faces outward, and a soft pad 8 is pre-placed between the second flange 1022 and the wall 02. The soft pad 8 adapts to the slight unevenness of the surface of the wall 02 through its own elasticity, ensuring that the second flange 1022 maintains a stable posture during subsequent assembly. Then, insert the cylindrical part 202 of the sealing element 2 into the connecting pipe. The inner wall of pipe 1021 is used to assemble the sealing element 2 with the connecting component 102. Then, the edge of the first flange portion 1012 of the faucet 101 is aligned with the arc-shaped positioning frame 5 on the second flange portion 1022, so that the outer edge of the first flange portion 1012 is embedded along the inner wall of the arc-shaped positioning frame 5, thereby pre-positioning the faucet 101 with the connecting component 102. During this process, the chamfer 4 of the insertion end of the extrusion cylinder 1011 acts as a guide, allowing the extrusion cylinder 1011 to smoothly extend into the cylinder portion 202 of the sealing element 2. Since the outer diameter of the extrusion cylinder 1011 is larger than the inner diameter of the cylinder portion 202, the extrusion cylinder 1011... 011 will generate radial extrusion force on the cylinder 202, forcing the cylinder 202 to expand and deform outward, tightly fitting the inner wall of the connecting pipe 1021 and the outer wall of the extrusion cylinder 1011. Then, the screw 7 is passed through the screw fixing hole 6 aligned on the first flange 1012 and the second flange 1022, and the screw 7 is tightened. The axial tightening force of the screw 7 pushes the first flange 1012 further closer to the second flange 1022, causing the ring portion 201 of the sealing element 2 to deform under axial pressure between the ring groove 3 and the second flange 1022, filling the gap between the ring groove 3 and the second flange 1022. At the same time, due to the arc shape... The thickness of the positioning frame 5 is the same as the thickness of the first flange 1012. The arc-shaped positioning frame 5 restricts the radial displacement of the first flange 1012, ensuring that the tightening force of the screw 7 is evenly transmitted to the ring 201 and the cylinder 202, avoiding uneven local stress on the seal 2. Finally, when the screw 7 is tightened to the preset torque, the faucet 101 and the connecting part 102 are completely fixed. The ring 201 of the seal 2 forms a radial sealing barrier, and the cylinder 202 forms an axial sealing barrier. The double sealing structure fills the gap between the faucet 101 and the connecting part 102, and the faucet 1 can normally achieve the function of water flow through the faucet 101.

[0028] This invention utilizes a detachable structure for the faucet 101 and connecting component 102. The connecting component 102 can be pre-fixed to the water pipe 01 and the wall 02. When replacing or repairing the faucet 101, only the screws 7 need to be removed to separate the faucet 101, without disassembling the connection between the connecting component 102 and the water pipe 01, reducing maintenance difficulty and operation time. Furthermore, the double structure of the ring portion 201 and the cylindrical portion 202 of the sealing component 2, combined with the interference fit design of the extrusion cylinder 1011, forms a radial and axial double seal, improving sealing reliability and reducing the risk of leakage. At the same time, the arc-shaped fixing... The positioning frame 5 enables quick pre-positioning of the faucet 101 and the connecting component 102, improving installation efficiency; the soft pad 8 between the second flange 1022 and the wall 02 not only avoids damage to the wall 02 caused by direct contact between metal parts, but also compensates for the unevenness of the wall surface through elastic deformation, ensuring the assembly stability of the connecting component 102, and indirectly ensuring the installation accuracy and sealing effect of the faucet 101; the chamfered corner 4 design at the insertion end of the extrusion cylinder 1011 makes it easier to insert the extrusion cylinder 1011 into the cylinder 202 under interference fit, reducing the difficulty of assembly operation and improving the ease of use of the product.
