Detailed Implementation
[0014] Combination Figures 1 to 8 As shown, this embodiment provides a kitchen faucet for connecting to a dishwasher, including a base 1, a valve core seat 2, and a water nozzle 3 rotatably fitted on the valve core seat 2. It also includes a locking connector 4 and a connecting seat 5, wherein the locking connector 4 is adapted to connect the valve core seat 2 and the base 1; the connecting seat 5 is adapted to be installed on the top of the valve core seat 2 to axially limit the water nozzle 3 to the outside of the valve core seat 2; the valve core seat 2 has a water inlet channel 21 and a water outlet channel 22 formed thereon, the water inlet channel 21 is provided with a water outlet branch 23 for connection to the dishwasher, and the base 1 is provided with a branch handle 8 assembly to control the opening and closing of the water outlet branch 23.
[0015] In this embodiment, the water nozzle 3 is rotatably connected to the valve core seat 2. The valve core seat 2 has a vertical structure and a mounting portion formed at the top for mounting the valve core. Furthermore, the outer side of the top of the valve core seat 2 is provided with an external thread for connecting with the internal thread of the connecting seat 5. This, through the connecting seat 5, restricts the axial displacement of the water nozzle 3 on the valve core seat 2, allowing the water nozzle 3 to rotate only horizontally.
[0016] Combination Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the valve core seat 2 is provided with a cold water inlet channel 21, a hot water inlet channel 21, and an outlet channel 22. The outlet channel 23 is connected to the cold water inlet channel 21. The cold water inlet channel 21 and the hot water inlet channel 21 are respectively connected to the cold and hot water inlet pipes, and the outlet channel 22 is connected to the outlet of the water nozzle 3. An opening is provided on the side wall of the valve core seat 2 near the cold water inlet channel 21 to form the outlet channel 23, and an opening is provided on the base 1 to correspond to the outlet channel 23, thereby leading the cold water out into the dishwasher. Specifically, the branch handle 8 assembly includes a cold water valve core 7 and a branch handle 8. The branch handle 8 is connected to the cold water valve core 7 to control the opening and closing of the outlet channel 23. Through the cold water valve core 7 and the branch handle 8, the outlet channel 23 of the dishwasher channel can be controlled independently. It should be noted that the outlet channel 23 can be connected to the inside of the dishwasher through a conduit.
[0017] Combination Figures 2 to 3As shown, in this embodiment, the locking connector 4 is fixedly connected to the base 1, and the locking connector 4 is provided with a first internal thread 41 to be threadedly connected to the valve core seat 2; the locking connector 4 is provided with a second internal thread 42 for connecting the mounting pin 6. Here, the locking connector 4 can be connected to the base 1 by a threaded connection or by gluing, including but not limited to these methods. By providing the first internal thread 41 to be threadedly connected to the lower end of the valve core seat 2, and the second internal thread 42 to be threadedly connected to the mounting pin 6, the locking connector 4 can lock the valve core seat 2 and the base 1 together as one unit, and then fix them together with the mounting pin 6 to the table surface, so that the base 1 and the valve core seat 2 cannot rotate on the table surface.
[0018] In one embodiment, the water nozzle 3 can rotate 360° on the valve core seat 2.
[0019] Combination Figures 6 to 7 As shown, in another embodiment, to limit the horizontal rotation angle of the water nozzle 3, a movable groove 24 can be formed on the valve core seat 2. This groove provides a preset movement trajectory and physical boundary for the limiting screw 9. The water nozzle 3 is provided with a limiting screw 9 adapted to move within the movable groove 24 to limit the rotation angle of the water nozzle 3. The maximum rotation range of the water nozzle 3 can be controlled by the rotation amplitude of the limiting screw 9 within the movable groove 24. The movable groove 24 can limit the maximum rotation angle of the water nozzle 3 to 120° or other angles. This structure ensures that the rotation angle of the water nozzle 3 is precisely limited to a preset range, preventing unrestricted rotation of the water nozzle 3.
[0020] In this embodiment, an upper rotating bushing 10 and a lower rotating bushing 11 are provided between the valve core seat 2 and the water nozzle 3 to make the water nozzle 3 rotate more smoothly on the valve core seat 2.
[0021] During assembly, first fix the valve core seat 2 to the base 1 with the locking connector 4; then put the water nozzle 3 on and tighten it to the valve core seat 2 with the connecting seat 5 to fix the water nozzle 3; then install the valve core, fix the handle, and screw in the aerator to complete the installation, making the installation more convenient.
[0022] The kitchen faucet in this embodiment connects to the dishwasher via a locking connector 4, which connects the valve core seat 2 to the base 1. A connecting seat 5 axially limits the water nozzle 3. The valve core seat 2 has an inlet channel 21, an outlet channel 22, and a water outlet path 23 for connecting to the dishwasher. This water outlet path 23 is controlled by a branch handle 8 assembly on the base 1. Therefore, this kitchen faucet effectively simplifies the structure for connecting to the dishwasher while allowing the water nozzle 3 to rotate and be positioned, reducing overall manufacturing costs and enhancing the product's market competitiveness.
