Description

RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese patent application number 202411314891.8, filed on Sep. 20, 2024. Chinese patent application number 202411314891.8 is incorporated herein by reference.FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE

[0002] The present disclosure relates to the field of sanitary products, and in particular to a dual handle faucet.BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE

[0003] Dual-handle faucets are a common type of faucet widely used in kitchens and bathrooms. Their main structure comprises a faucet body and two valve assemblies, which are installed on two side of the faucet body. The design of dual-handle faucets allows users to adjust water temperature by separately operating the hot and cold water valves, thereby achieving a comfortable water usage experience. The two valve assemblies are connected to cold and hot water supplies, respectively, and are linked to internal channels within the faucet body, directing water to the spout to achieve mixed water output.

[0004] Existing dual-handle faucets are relatively cumbersome to install, primarily due to the structural design of the faucet body and valve assemblies. Typically, both the faucet body and the valve assemblies have threaded pipes at lower ends of the faucet body and the valve assemblies, which need to pass through a countertop and then be secured and fixed with nuts underneath the countertop. This installation method requires precise positioning and tightening of nuts in confined spaces, undoubtedly increasing the difficulty of installation.

[0005] The internal structure of the valve assemblies is also relatively complex, usually comprising a valve seat, threaded pipe, and inlet / outlet pipes. The valve seat, as a core component of the valve assembly, controls the flow of hot and cold water. The threaded pipe is connected to a lower end of the valve seat and is responsible for securing the valve assembly to the countertop. The inlet / outlet pipes must pass through the threaded pipe and connect to the valve seat to ensure the flow of hot and cold water. Since the inlet / outlet pipes need to pass through the threaded pipe and connect precisely to the valve seat, installation not only requires advanced operational skills but is also prone to issues, such as loose connections and water leakage, affecting performance. Therefore, how to simplify the installation structure of dual-handle faucets and improve installation efficiency has become an urgent problem to be solved in the existing techniques.BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE

[0006] At least one of the technical problems to be solved by the present disclosure is to provide a dual-handle faucet that simplifies installation steps, improves installation efficiency, and offers the beneficial effects of convenience and speed.

[0007] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present disclosure provides a dual handle faucet, and the dual handle faucet comprises a water outlet member and two valve assemblies arranged on two sides of the water outlet member. The two valve assemblies are respectively fluidly connected to the water outlet member.

[0008] The water outlet member comprises a first countertop mounting member and a faucet body, and the first countertop mounting member is configured to be fixedly mounted on a countertop from above the countertop. The faucet body is mounted on the first countertop mounting member.

[0009] Each of the two valve assemblies comprises a second countertop mounting assembly and a valve member, and the second countertop mounting assembly is configured to be fixedly mounted on the countertop from above the countertop.

[0010] The second countertop mounting assembly comprises a valve body and a water flow seat, and the valve body is arranged on an upper side of the countertop. The water flow seat is connected to the valve body and extends below the countertop, and the valve member is disposed in the valve body. A water flow channel connected to the valve body is formed in the water flow seat.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the second countertop mounting assembly comprises a valve locking assembly, and the valve body is disposed with a control rod operatively coupled to the valve locking assembly. The valve locking assembly is slidably disposed on a side wall of the water flow seat along an up-and-down direction, and the control rod is configured to be operated by an external force to drive the valve locking assembly to slide to fixedly abut a lower side of the countertop.

A rotation point of each of the two supporting arms is offset from a middle position of each of the two supporting arms, and a blocking member is disposed on a lower end of the water flow seat. The control rod is configured to drive the sliding block to move up and down along the water flow seat, and the two supporting arms are configured to approach and abut the blocking member so that the two supporting arms are rotated to a folded state. The two supporting arms are configured to move away from the blocking member so that the two supporting arms are rotated to an unfolded state, and a radial size of the two supporting arms in the unfolded state is larger than a mounting hole of the countertop.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, a sliding trajectory of each of the two valve locking assemblies is offset from an axis of a corresponding one of the second countertop mounting assemblies of the two valve assemblies.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the blocking member comprises a base and two blocking inclined walls, and the base is disposed on a lower end of the side wall of the water flow seat. The two blocking inclined walls are disposed on two sides of the base to form an accommodating space with the side wall and the base, and the sliding block is configured to be located in the accommodating space. When the sliding block moves adjacent to the two blocking inclined walls, ends of the two supporting arms in the unfolded state abut the two blocking inclined walls to enable the two supporting arms to be folded and abut the two blocking inclined walls.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment, the dual handle faucet comprises a pipe assembly configured be inserted into a lower end of the water flow seat, and a buckling member. When the pipe assembly is disposed in the lower end of the water flow seat, the buckling member is configured to be inserted into and connected to the pipe assembly and the water flow seat.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment, the second countertop mounting assembly comprises a valve locking assembly, and the valve body is disposed with a control rod operatively coupled to the valve locking assembly. The valve locking assembly is slidably disposed on a side wall of the water flow seat along an up-and-down direction, and the control rod is configured to be operated by an external force to drive the valve locking assembly to slide to fixedly abut a lower side of the countertop. The buckling member comprises an insertion portion and a stopping block, and the insertion portion is configured to be inserted into the lower end of the water flow seat. An upper end of the control rod is correspondingly mounted on the valve body, and a lower end of the control rod is correspondingly mounted on the lower end of the water flow seat. The lower end of the control rod corresponds to an outer side of the stopping block.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment, the valve body comprises a valve cavity, a flange, and a force-bearing disc, and the valve cavity is configured to receive a valve. The force-bearing disc is sleeved on a lower side of the flange, and a side of the flange comprises a notch. The force-bearing disc comprises a through hole corresponding to the notch, and an upper end of the control rod is correspondingly disposed in the notch. The control rod passes through the through hole.

[0018] In a preferred embodiment, the side wall of the water flow seat forms a rail, and the valve locking assembly is configured to slide on the rail.

[0019] In a preferred embodiment, the first countertop mounting member comprises a mounting seat and a body locking assembly, and the mounting seat is disposed on the upper side of the countertop. The mounting seat is disposed with a mounting control rod operatively coupled to the body locking assembly, and the mounting control rod is configured to be operated by an external force to drive the body locking assembly to fixedly abut a lower side of the countertop.

[0020] Compared with the existing techniques, the technical solution has the following advantages.

[0021] 1. The water outlet member and the two valve assemblies adopt an above-counter installation design, and this design greatly simplifies installation steps of traditional faucets. The water outlet member comprises the first countertop mounting assembly and the faucet body. The first countertop mounting assembly can be fixedly mounted directly from above the countertop, so that the faucet body is stably mounted on the countertop. This not only reduces complicated operations during mounting, but also avoids a step of tightening the nuts in a narrow space under the countertop, thereby improving installation efficiency and reducing requirements for installation technology.

[0022] For the two valve assemblies, the above-counter installation design is also adopted. Each of the two valve assemblies comprises the second countertop mounting assembly and the valve member, and the second countertop mounting assembly can be fixedly mounted directly from above the countertop. This mounting method does not require tedious threaded pipe threading and nut tightening operations like traditional dual-handle faucets, which significantly reduces the difficulty of installation.

[0023] In addition, a water flow seat is designed in the second countertop mounting assembly to achieve convenient water connection. The water flow seat is connected to the valve body and extends below the countertop, forming the water flow channel connected to the valve body. Due to existence of the water flow seat, inlet pipes and outlet pipes only need to be connected to the water flow seat, and no longer need to pass through a threaded pipe for precise connection. This design effectively simplifies a mounting process of the inlet pipes and outlet pipes, reduces a risk of water leakage, and ensures a smooth flow of hot and cold water, improving practicality and reliability of a product.

[0024] 2. The second countertop mounting assembly comprises the valve body, the water flow seat, and the valve locking assembly. The valve locking assembly is guided by the water flow seat, thereby optimizing the mounting process. The valve locking assembly is mounted on the side wall of the water flow seat and can slide up and down along the side wall. The control rod is disposed on the valve body, and the control rod is operatively coupled to the valve locking assembly. Through an external force, the control rod can drive the valve locking assembly to slide up and down, so that the valve locking assembly fixedly abuts the lower side of the countertop. The water flow seat not only plays a role in guiding water, but also provides a guiding function for the valve locking assembly, making sliding and fixing operations of the valve locking assembly smoother and more accurate, and reducing a space occupied by various components in the traditional valve assembly, thereby reducing an overall volume. This is not only conducive to installation in a small space, but also makes the layout of the faucet body and the two valve assemblies more reasonable and beautiful, a locking process is smoother, and it is not easy to get stuck or improperly installed.

[0025] 3. The sliding trajectory of each of the two valve locking assemblies is offset from the axis of the second countertop mounting assembly, which avoids squeezing or interference on the water flow seat and the water flow channel during installation and locking, ensuring that the water flow channel always remains straight. This deviated design significantly reduces resistance of a water flow in the water flow channel, avoids generation of turbulence and noise, and thus improves a water use experience. The water flow channel remains in an undeviated state, which ensures a more uniform mixing of hot and cold water, and does not affect stability of a water outlet temperature due to changes in a water flow path. When switching between hot and cold water, the water flow is smoother and users can get the expected water temperature more quickly, enhancing the practicality of the product.

[0026] 4. The blocking member comprises the base and two blocking inclined walls. The base is disposed on the lower end of the side wall of the water flow seat. The two blocking inclined walls are disposed on two sides of the base to form the accommodating space with the side wall and the base. The sliding block can be located in the accommodating space. The accommodating space makes the sliding block more compactly arranged on the water flow seat, fully utilizes the space, and reduces occupation of additional components. This compact design not only reduces an overall size of each of the two valve assemblies, but also optimizes an arrangement of internal components and improves stability of an entire device.

[0027] 5. The buckling member comprises the insertion portion and the stopping block, and the insertion portion is configured to be inserted into the lower end of the water flow seat. The upper end of the control rod is correspondingly mounted on the valve body, and the lower end of the control rod is correspondingly mounted on the lower end of the water flow seat. The lower end of the control rod corresponds to the outer side of the stopping block. When the pipe assembly is inserted into the lower end of the water flow seat, the buckling member is firmly buckled to the water flow seat and the pipe assembly. Subsequently, the upper end of the control rod is mounted on the valve body, the lower end of the control rod is mounted on the lower end of the water flow seat, and the lower end of the control rod is matched with the outer side of the stopping block. At this time, since the lower end of the control rod is located on the outer side of the stopping block, the buckling member is effectively locked and cannot fall off directly. This structural design has many beneficial effects. First, this makes a connection between the pipe assembly and the water flow seat more stable, preventing a problem of loose connection or falling off due to an external force during use. Since the buckling member is locked by the control rod, even when a water flow pressure is generated in the pipeline or an outside vibration, the pipe assembly and the water flow seat can still maintain a stable connection, thereby improving durability and reliability of the faucet. Secondly, a design and an installation method of the buckling member make assembly and maintenance of the faucet more convenient. The pipe assembly only needs to be inserted into the lower end of the water flow seat, the pipe assembly is then fixed by the buckling member, and the control rod is then installed to complete a stable connection. This not only simplifies the installation steps, but also, when disassembly and maintenance are required, the buckling member can be released by removing the control rod to separate the pipe assembly and the water flow seat, which is convenient for maintenance. In addition, this design also has a function of preventing misoperation. Since the buckling member is locked by the control rod, the buckling member can only be removed after the control rod is removed, which effectively prevents the buckling member from loosening in accidental situations and ensures safety of a pipeline connection. In general, this structure ensures a tight connection between the pipe assembly and the water flow seat by rationally utilizing the cooperation of the buckling member and the control rod, and this structure improves the installation convenience and use stability of the product.

[0028] 6. The valve body comprises the valve cavity, the flange, and a force-bearing disc. The valve cavity is configured to receive the valve. The force-bearing disc is sleeved on the lower side of the flange. The notch is provided on one side of the flange. The force-bearing disc is provided with the through hole corresponding to the notch. The upper end of the control rod is correspondingly provided in the notch, and the control rod passes through the through hole. The force-bearing disc bears a main force, thereby preventing the flange from directly bearing an external force during installation and operation. Since the force-bearing disc bears most of the mechanical load, the flange itself is not directly subjected to force, which means that an overall strength requirement of the valve body can be reduced. A thickness of the valve body can be appropriately reduced, which not only saves materials but also reduces manufacturing costs.BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
