A wall-mounted tap with a single shower head spout, comprising:
- a tap mount;
- a tap body;
- a valve mount;
- a vacuum breaker;
- a check valve;
- a pair of hot and cold water inlet pipes;
- one water outlet pipe;
- a removable shower head;
- a tubular tap seat having an internal retaining block;
- said tubular tap seat projecting from a middle of said tap mount;
- said retaining block having an inner threaded hole drilled from an outer surface of said tap seat;
- said tubular tap seat further having an axial opening under said retaining block;
- a control handle mounted onto said tap body;
- said tap body further having a slanted holding tube;
- said valve mount having a positioning block thereon;
- said positioning block having two inner threaded water inlets and an inner threaded water outlet;
- a flat cut face being defined on the positioning block and an inner threaded receiving hole in communication with said water outlet at a middle of said flat cut face;
- said vacuum breaker being equipped with a nut, a valve stem and a spring;
- said nut having an outer threaded first section engaged to a second section with a seal ring defined therebetween;
- said first section having a smaller diameter than said second section;
- said nut having two symmetric splits at an end thereof;
- said second section having outer threads at an end nearest to said first section;
- a countersink hole comprising two differently sized holes with a tapered section defined at an intersection of the two differently sized holes;
- said valve stem having a conically tapered section and a limiting flange defined at the intersection of the first section and the second section of the valve stem;
- said second section having an axially extended cut at a free end thereof;
- each end of said hot and cold water inlet pipes are respectively provided with an outer threaded connection;
- a top of said water outlet pipe is engaged to a bottom of a connection cap which houses said check valve;
- and an adjustable nut is secured to a bottom end of said water outlet pipe;
- a rear end of said shower head is connected to an extensible duct having a coupling head at the bottom end thereof;
- in assembly, one said outer threaded connection end of each of said hot and cold water inlet pipes is respectively engaged with said two inner threaded water inlets of said valve mount, and a threaded top of the connection cap is engaged with the inner threaded water outlet of said valve mount;
- thereafter, said valve mount is placed in a tubular tap seat so that the flat cut face of the positioning block is in engagement with said internal retaining block of said tap seat;
- said hot and cold water inlet pipes and said water outlet pipe being led through said tap mount and being exposed externally;
- said spring of said vacuum breaker being mounted onto the second section of said valve stem and being in limiting abutment against said limiting flange;
- said valve stem and said spring being housed in the inner threaded hole of said tubular tap seat of said tap mount and being further inserted into the receiving hole on said flat cut face;
- said outer threaded first section of said nut of said vacuum breaker being securely engaged with said inner threaded receiving hole on said flat cut surface, the outer threads of the second section being engaged with the inner threaded holes on said tubular tap seat;
- said tap body being engaged with said tubular tap seat with said slanted holding tube placed in alignment with said axial opening, said shower head being inserted into said slanted holding tube;
- said extensible duct of said shower head being led through said axial opening connected to said water outlet pipe by engaging the rear coupling head of said duct with said adjustable nut of said water outlet pipe.
