Abstract
A faucet with a utensil flushing mechanism comprises a faucet mechanism, a water inlet mechanism, and the utensil flushing mechanism. The faucet mechanism comprises a tube body and a first water passage disposed at least partially in the tube body. The water inlet mechanism is connected to the first water passage. The utensil flushing mechanism is disposed on the faucet mechanism and comprises a nozzle configured to be in communication with the water inlet mechanism. The utensil flushing mechanism is movably disposed on the tube body, and the nozzle is configured to be controlled to be in different positions through movement of the utensil flushing mechanism.
Claims20
A faucet with a utensil flushing mechanism, comprising:
- a faucet mechanism,
- a water inlet mechanism, and
- the utensil flushing mechanism, wherein:
- the faucet mechanism comprises a tube body and a first water passage disposed at least partially in the tube body,
- the water inlet mechanism is connected to the first water passage,
- the utensil flushing mechanism comprises a nozzle configured to be in communication with the water inlet mechanism,
- the utensil flushing mechanism rotates about the tube body,
- a control switch is disposed on the utensil flushing mechanism,
- the control switch is configured to control whether water from the water inlet mechanism flows out of the nozzle,
- when the utensil flushing mechanism rotates to be in a use position, the nozzle and the control switch face an upward direction, and
- when a utensil is placed on the utensil flushing mechanism:
- the control switch is touched by the utensil to be turned on,
- the utensil covers the nozzle, and
- the water flows out of the nozzle to clean the utensil.
