The present invention relates to a faucet bracket, and in particular, the hot and cold water mixing chamber in which the cold and hot water is introduced and mixed by the operation of the opening and closing member and the channel arrangement portion arranged with the channels for discharging the water supplied therefrom are not integrally formed. It relates to a fastener having excellent fastening property configured to be coupled in a simple way after being formed.

More specifically, the hot and cold water mixing chamber and the channel arrangement portion, which occupy a large volume in the faucet bracket and are complicated to manufacture, are not formed integrally, but each can be easily formed after separately forming, thereby facilitating the assembly process. The invention relates to a faucet that has the advantage of excellent workability and low manufacturing costs.

Recently, due to the development of industrial society, multi-unit housing has increased in a large scale, and environmental pollution is also a serious problem due to the influence of industrial society, which is rapidly developing as well as the form of housing. It is also emerging as a new topic.

Due to such pollution, much effort is being made to keep their bodies clean and healthy at all times, and as the number of these people increases, the bath culture is changing rapidly. In addition, it is changing into a shower culture, and not only a shower concept of washing the body but also a shower concept that can relieve fatigue of the body, and various types of faucet brackets are introduced to cope with such changes. It's happening.

Various types of faucet brackets were introduced, not a faucet bracket having a single discharge port, but a faucet bracket equipped with a shower. A shower head was also fixed to a mobile shower connected to a hose so that the direction can be adjusted freely. Faucet brackets are provided with a fixed shower. Furthermore, in the fixed shower, instead of simply spraying water to cleanse the body, a plurality of jets are provided in the fixed shower at a position corresponding to a specific part of the body, so that the body is not sprayed when the shower is used. Various showers with a function to obtain acupressure are introduced.

The configuration that must be provided in the faucet bracket having a variety of forms and functions as described above is a so-called housing part that is provided with a space for mixing the water supplied from the inlet pipe of cold and hot water, that is, a cold and hot water mixing chamber It is a part formed so that the mixed water can be discharged through the channel communicating with it. In general, such a housing is provided with a control member, such as a handle lever for controlling the inflow of cold and hot water, and a discharge port for discharging the supplied water. Such a configuration is required in the faucet.

However, the housing should be provided with a space for mixing cold and hot water, a space for the water channel for discharging the mixed water, and further, if there are two or more discharge ports, the water channel in various directions should be provided in the housing. Its internal construction is not only complicated but also significant in size and volume. As such, since the internal configuration is complicated and the size or volume is large, when the housing is integrally formed, not only the manufacturing process is complicated but also a large cost is required for molding.

In addition, more specifically, when a foreign matter is introduced into the waterway tube formed inside the housing, in particular, a problem occurs in the water supply, the internally formed housing cannot be checked, so it is not easy to solve the problem of removing the foreign matter. As a result, the housing itself has to be replaced at a high cost.
