Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of faucets, and particularly, to a rotating mechanism and a faucet with the same.
  • faucets in the markets basically have a rotating structure.
  • rotating structure is easy to loosen in actual use, resulting in that the faucet cannot be normally fixed for use.
  • DE-A-102013115006 and DE-A-1993440 each discloses a respective faucet comprising a respective coupling unit having a relative first portion and a relative second portion being releaseably connected to one another. The respective first portion and the respective second portion are rotatable with respect to one another.
  • Each faucet also comprises a respective locking mechanism comprising a respective groove associated to the respective second portion and a respective ball or stick associated to the respective first portion so as to lock the respective second and the respective first portion to one another.
  • Each locking mechanism is constructed such that a force into the vertical direction must be exerted on the respective second portion for overcoming the locking force exerted by means of the respective locking mechanism.
  • US-B-6425149 discloses a faucet having an outlet tube and an extension tube connected to the outlet tube by means of a connection device.
  • the connection device comprises a first portion and a second portion being releasably connected to one another. While the first portion is coupled to the outlet tube, the second portion is coupled to the extension tube.
  • the connection device also comprises a locking mechanism for locking the first portion and the second portion to one another.
  • the locking mechanism comprises a plurality of notches associated to the second portion and a ball configured to engage into one of the notches and being associated to the first portion.
  • the invention is directed to a rotating mechanism for a faucet according to claim 1.
  • the elongated key comprises a long rod accommodated in the rotating member and a key arranged on the outer surface of the rotating member and detachably mounted with the rotating member.
  • a protrusion is provided on a surface of the mounting base abutted with the rotating member, and a sliding chute for the protrusion to slide is provided on a surface of the rotating member abutted with the mounting base.
  • a faucet using the rotating mechanism includes a faucet body and a faucet base, wherein the faucet base comprises a faucet switch and the rotating mechanism, and the faucet body is fixedly connected with the rotating member.
  • the invention has the beneficial effects that: the faucet fixed on the rotating member can rotate along with rotation of the rotating member around the mounting base, the limiting device is arranged on the mounting base to fix the rotating member rotating to a certain position, thereby solving the problem that the faucet cannot be fixed due to loosening.
  • a rotating mechanism of the invention comprises a mounting base 3 fixedly connected onto a working table and a rotating member 4 rotationally connected with the mounting base 3, wherein a faucet body 1 is fixedly connected with the rotating member 4, and the mounting base 3 is provided with a limiting device for fixing the position of the rotating member 4.
  • the rotating member 4 rotates around the mounting base 3, the limiting device is arranged on the mounting base 3, and the rotating member 4, which rotates to a certain position can be fixed, so as to solve a problem that the rotating member 4 cannot be fixed due to loosening.
  • the limiting device comprises a limiting round ball 11 arranged between the rotating member 4 and the mounting base 3 and an elastic member 12 abutted with the limiting round ball 11, wherein the mounting base 3 is provided with an elongated guide hole 13 for accommodating the elastic member 12 and the limiting round ball 11, and the rotating member 4 is provided with a groove 18 matched with the limiting round ball 11 in shape.
  • the elastic member 12 comprises a spring, which rotates along with the rotating member 4.
  • the limiting round ball 11 will be abutted with the groove 18 under the action of the elastic member 12, thus fixing the rotating member 4.
  • the rotating member 4 is provided with a plurality of grooves 18 at intervals along the circumference. By providing the plurality of grooves 18, the rotating member 4 can be fixed at a plurality of positions, thus enabling the rotating member 4 to stay at a plurality of different positions.
  • two grooves 18 are provided.
  • the rotating member 4 is provided with an elongated key abutted with the limiting round ball 11, and the bottom of at least one of the grooves 18 is pierced by a through hole for accommodating the elongated key.
  • the groove 18 comprises a first groove provided with a through hole and a second groove having a depth smaller than that of the first groove.
  • the elongated key is accommodated in the through hole.
  • the user can remove the limiting round ball 11 from the second groove only by a large torsion, which facilitates use by the user.
  • the elongated key comprises a long rod 15 accommodated in the rotating member 4 and a key 14 arranged on an outer surface of the rotating member 4 and detachably mounted with the rotating member 4.
  • the elongated key comprises a long rod 15 accommodated in the rotating member 4 and a key 14 arranged on an outer surface of the rotating member 4 and detachably mounted with the rotating member 4.
  • the long rod 15 has a diameter greater than that of the key 14, so that the long rod 15 does not come out of the rotating member 4 during use, thereby facilitating use.
  • a boss is provided at the top of the key 14; and a recess, which can accommodate the boss is provided at an upper portion of the rotating member 4. The abutment of the boss with the recess prevents the key 14 from falling into the rotating member 4.
  • a protrusion 16 is provided on a surface of the mounting base 3, which is abutted with the rotating member 4, and a sliding chute 17 for the protrusion 16 to slide is provided on a surface of the rotating member 4, which is abutted with the mounting base 3. With the rotation of the rotating member 4, the protrusion 16 moves in the sliding chute 17, thus effectively limiting a travel of the rotating member 4.
  • a faucet using the rotating mechanism comprises a faucet body 1 and a faucet base, wherein the faucet base includes a faucet switch 2 and the rotating mechanism, and the faucet body 1 is fixedly connected with the rotating member 4.
  • the faucet fixed on the rotating member 4 can rotate along with rotation of the rotating member 4 around the mounting base 3.
  • the limiting round ball 11 will be abutted with the groove 18 under the action of the elastic member 12, thus fixing rotating member 4.
