Benefits of technology

[0015] Compared to existing technologies, this invention features a water inlet on the side of a rotating ceramic plate, a water outlet corresponding to the water inlet on a fixed ceramic plate, a water passage corresponding to the water outlet on the rotating ceramic plate, and a water drain corresponding to the water passage on the fixed ceramic plate. The outer casing has a water inlet connected to the water inlet. When the water inlet of the rotating ceramic plate and the water outlet of the fixed ceramic plate are connected, normal water flow occurs, simultaneously draining residual water from the other water outlet. When the water inlet of the rotating ceramic plate and the water outlet of the fixed ceramic plate are not connected, the system is closed. In this case, the water passage of the rotating ceramic plate and the water outlet of the fixed ceramic plate are connected. The ceramic tile's drain hole and two outlet holes are all interconnected. When in drainage mode, residual water in the pipes is automatically discharged due to gravity, achieving immediate drainage of residual water. This prevents residual water from lingering for extended periods, thus avoiding bacterial growth and skin irritation. It also prevents continuous dripping, avoiding unsanitary conditions like water accumulation on the bathroom floor, and prevents a poor initial user experience in winter due to large amounts of residual cold water in the pipes. Furthermore, it prevents the outlet pipes from freezing and cracking at extremely low temperatures, resulting in excellent performance.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of valve core technology, specifically to an automatic drainage side-inlet bottom-outlet water distribution valve core. Background Technology

[0002] The diverter valve core, a common accessory for faucets, is used to switch the faucet on and off; hence, it's also called a switching valve core or on / off valve core. However, with existing faucets, residual water doesn't drain from the pipes after the control valve is closed, leading to several problems: 1. Prolonged water retention in the pipes breeds bacteria, causing skin irritation and other adverse effects on skin health upon reuse. 2. In showerheads, when full of water, dripping can occur due to imbalance or air ingress, creating a rattling sound that disturbs the user's rest and results in unsanitary conditions like water accumulation on the bathroom floor. 3. Each time the faucet is turned on, a large amount of residual cold water in the pipes results in a chilly shower, especially in winter, leading to a poor user experience. 4. In cold northern regions, water pipes full of water are prone to freezing and cracking when the water freezes. Therefore, to avoid these shortcomings, improvements to the existing technology are necessary. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings and deficiencies in the existing technology and provide an automatic drainage side-inlet bottom-outlet water distribution valve core that is simple in structure, prevents bacterial growth, prevents dripping, prevents freezing and cracking, and provides a good user experience.

[0004] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] An automatic drainage side-inlet bottom-outlet water distribution valve core includes a housing.

The rotating ceramic plate 3 has a water passage hole 6 corresponding to the water outlet hole 5. The fixed ceramic plate 2 has a drain hole 7 corresponding to the water passage hole 6. The housing 1 has a water inlet 8 communicating with the water inlet hole 4. When the inlet hole 4 of the rotating ceramic disc 3 is connected to the outlet hole 5 of the fixed ceramic disc 2, water flows normally, and residual water from the other outlet function is also drained. When the inlet hole 4 of the rotating ceramic disc 3 is not connected to the outlet hole 5 of the fixed ceramic disc 2, it is in the closed state. At this time, the through hole 6 of the rotating ceramic disc 3, the drain hole 7 of the fixed ceramic disc 2, and the two outlet holes 5 are all connected, and it is in the draining state. Due to the gravity of the water itself, the residual water in the water pipe is automatically drained, realizing the immediate drainage of residual water. The residual water in the water pipe is automatically and quickly drained, avoiding the growth of bacteria due to the long retention of residual water, which can cause skin irritation and other adverse effects on skin health. It will not drip continuously, thus avoiding the unsanitary phenomenon of water remaining on the bathroom floor for a long time. It will also avoid the poor initial user experience in winter due to a large amount of residual cold water in the water pipe, and will not cause the water pipe to freeze and crack in extremely low temperatures. The performance is good.

[0025] There are two water outlet holes 5, which are located on the left and right sides of the drain hole 7, thus forming a two-function valve core; if a single lower water outlet hole 5 is designed, it becomes a single-function valve core.

[0026] A base plate 9 is installed at the bottom of the outer casing 1 to facilitate the installation of components inside the outer casing 1. An inner water sealing ring 10 is provided at the connection between the base plate 9 and the fixed ceramic plate 2 to improve the sealing and waterproof performance of the connection between the base plate 9 and the fixed ceramic plate 2. An outer water sealing ring 11 is provided at the bottom of the base plate 9 to improve the sealing and waterproof performance of the valve core installation.

[0027] The base plate 1 is provided with a first through hole 12 and a second through hole 13 corresponding to the water outlet hole 5 and the drain hole 7, respectively, to facilitate the water outlet and drain of the valve core.

[0028] The top of the base plate 9 is provided with a positioning post 14, and the ceramic plate 2 is provided with a positioning groove 15 corresponding to the positioning post 14, which facilitates the positioning and installation of the ceramic plate 2. The top of the base plate 9 is provided with a locking block 16, and the bottom of the outer shell 1 is provided with a locking groove 17 corresponding to the locking block 16, which facilitates the quick and stable installation of the base plate 9.

[0029] A lever sleeve 18 is rotatably connected to the top of the outer casing 1. A lever 19 is connected to the lever sleeve 18. The lever sleeve 18 is connected to the rotating ceramic plate 3, which facilitates the control of the rotation of the rotating ceramic plate 3.

[0030] The lever 19 is connected to the lever sleeve 18 via the fixing pin 20, which facilitates a secure connection between the lever 19 and the lever sleeve 18.

[0031] The bottom of the lever sleeve 18 is provided with a connecting block 21, and the rotating ceramic plate 3 is provided with a connecting groove 22 corresponding to the connecting block 21, which facilitates the quick and stable connection between the rotating ceramic plate 3 and the lever sleeve 18.

[0032] The outer side of the lever sleeve 18 is fitted with a first O-ring 23 to improve the sealing and waterproof performance of the lever sleeve 18 during installation, and the outer side of the outer shell 1 is fitted with a second O-ring 24 to improve the sealing and waterproof performance of the valve core during installation.

[0033] The water inlet 4 is flared, the water outlet 5 is fan-shaped, the water passage 6 is fan-shaped, and the drain 7 is circular, which makes the water inlet and outlet control more stable, keeps it in a draining state, and makes it more stable and convenient to use.

[0034] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
