Multi-input faucet
Abstract
A multi-input faucet comprises a spraying tube and a faucet body connected to the spraying tube. The faucet body comprises a cold water input tube and a hot water input tube being installed at a front side of a ceramic valve tank; a cold water inlet tube having a cold water inlet hole at an upper side thereof; the cold water inlet tube being connected to a lower cold water chamber through the cold water inlet hole; a cold water control valve for controlling the opening between the lower cold water chamber and the upper chamber so that the water flows into the upper water chamber; a hot water control valve for controlling hot water flow; a second isolating plate for separating the guide chamber from the cold water chamber; and a guide tube being connected below the guide chamber.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A multi-input faucet comprising a spraying tube and a faucet body connected to the spraying tube; the faucet body comprising; a first water supply unit comprising: a ceramic valve tank for embedding a water control ceramic valve installed at a front side of the faucet body; a cold water input tube and a hot water input tube being installed at a front side of the ceramic valve tank; a rear side of the ceramic valve tank having a water supply opening; wherein water flows through the water supply opening to a rear water chamber so that the cold water or hot water can flow through a main hole of the rear water chamber; then the water flowing out from an outer tube of a coaxial tube; a second water supply unit comprising: an inner tube of the coaxial tube being installed to a sub-seat hole below the main hole; a water cleaning chamber below the inner tube being isolated by a first isolating plate having a water inlet; the first isolating surface having a folded structure; a cold water inlet tube; the cold water inlet tube being connected to a lower cold water chamber through a cold water inlet hole; cold water in the fold water inlet tube flowing through the cold water inlet hole to the lower cold water chamber; then the fold water flowing through the water inlet to the upper water chamber and then flowing into the inner tube of the coaxial tube; a cold water control valve for controlling the opening between the lower cold water chamber and the upper chamber so that the water flows into the upper water chamber; a hot water control valve arranged opposite to the cold water control valve for controlling the amount of cold water which flows from the upper water chamber to a water guide chamber from a middle water hole; a second isolating plate for separating the guide chamber from the cold water chamber; the middle water hole being on the second isolating plate; a guide tube being connected below the guide chamber; cold water flowing into the guide tube from the guide chamber and then to an electric heating tank through a guide opening for heating the water; wherein the first isolating plate and the second isolating plate are formed with a longitudinal channel with two openings; a hot water tube are installed between the openings by using an upper sleeve and a middle sleeve; a lower end of the hot water tube is inserted into the processing tank so that hot water flows through the hot water tube; and wherein in operation, when only hot water is desired, then the cold water valve is closed so that cold water will not flow into the upper chamber; only the hot water flows into the inner tube so as to further flows into the spraying tube; when only cold water is desired, the hot water valve must be closed so that only cold water flows into the inner tube; and by adjusting the opening of the hot water valve and cold water valve, the temperature of the mixing water in the upper chamber is adjusted.
