Abstract
The present invention provides an oscillating faucet structure of a dual-outlet system to improve the shortcomings of a typical faucet of a dual-outlet system. The faucet structure includes a main body, seat post and combined footstock. A hollow groove is assembled within the seat post at top of the main body and used to accommodate the first and second water regulators. The main body has first and oscillating outlet heads, which can freely oscillate for flexible regulation. The combined footstock is assembled on top of the seat post of main body for mounting the second oscillating outlet head, thus enabling easy removal, repair or replacement of defective components with improved applicability.
Claims8
An oscillating faucet structure of a dual-outlet system, said faucet structure comprising:
- a main body, having an inlet port at a bottom thereof, a valve spool at one side thereof, and a seat post at a top, thereof, said seat post having a hollow groove assembled within said seat post, said main body being provided with an inlet passage linking said inlet port and said valve spool, and an outlet passage linking said valve spool and said seat post, said main body being fitted with a through-hole penetrating said top and said bottom thereof;
- a first water regulator, comprising a valve core and a first control switch, said valve core being assembled into said valve spool of said main body, said first control switch being assembled externally onto said valve spool controlling said valve core;
- a first oscillating outlet head, comprising a bushing portion for sleeving externally onto said seat post of said main body, said bushing portion having one side with a first outflow tube laterally assembled thereon and having a first water-crossing spaces arranged alternatively and formed between said bushing portion and said seat post;
- a combined footstock, being assembled on a top of said seat post of said main body and linked to said seat post via a localizer, said combined footstock having an accommodating hole vertically penetrating said combined footstock, a bottom of said accommodating hole being aligned with said hollow groove of said seat post said accommodating hole being connected to an outer wall of said combined footstock via said water-crossing hole;
- a positioning backing ring, being assembled between said combined footstock and said seat post of said main body, enabling positioning of said combined footstock, a bottom of said positioning backing ring being securely pressed against said first oscillating outlet head;
- a second oscillating outlet head, having a bushing portion for sleeving externally onto said combined footstock, said bushing portion for sleeving having a second outflow tube laterally assembled onto one side of the bushing portion, said second water-crossing spaces arranged alternatively being formed between the bushing portion and said combined footstock;
- a limiting cover, being assembled at a top of said combined footstock, a bottom of said limiting cover being used to press securely said second oscillating outlet head;
- and
- a second water regulator, comprising a water control valve and a second control switch, said water control valve being assembled into said accommodating hole of said combined footstock, said second control switch being assembled onto said limiting cover for said water control valve.
