A ceramic valve with an intermediate section having cold water supply function, which comprising: a valve casing, rotary driving seat, braking valve rod, pedestal, fixed valve block, rotary valve block and coupling seat; of which the coupling seat is assembled securely on top surface of the rotary valve block; it is characterized by that: a driven slot, recessed into an off-center position on top surface of the coupling seat; the toggle end at lower end of the braking valve rod is inserted into said driven slot, and there is an active clearance between the driven slot and toggle end; a biased rotary support unit, comprising of a flanged axle and an axle hole that are sleeved together in a rotatable state; said flanged axle and axle hole are separately arranged at top surface of the coupling seat and an off-center position on bottom surface of the inner seating portion of the rotary driving seat; hence, a biased rotary support position is shaped between the rotary driving seat and coupling seat; when the braking valve rod swings to an oblique water supply mode from the preset intermediate section, the toggle end at lower end of the braking valve rod will linearly toggle the driven slot, then the coupling seat along with the rotary valve block may rotarily shift by taking the biased rotary support unit as a rotary pivotal point, so the water flow control slot is only connected with the cold water through-hole in a cold water supply mode. Hence, the cold water supply function of the ceramic valve's intermediate section could prevent scalding and meet the resetting habit of the user for the handle of the dual-temperature faucet with improved applicability.

Abstract

An improved ceramic valve core with snapping functions for the cold/hot separation point having a valve casing, rotary driving pedestal, brake valve stem, rotating axle, base and ceramic valve set. A protruding portion is formed onto one end of the rotating axle and protruded outside of the flanged tube of the rotary driving pedestal. An elastomeric snapping clip is assembled between the reducing circular frame of the valve casing and the flanged tube. A snapping flange is formed from the snapping clip, such that elastic clamping effect is generated when the protruding portion is mated with the snapping flange under the action of the rotary driving pedestal. An elastic locator is set correspondingly to the snapping clip such that the snapping clip can be assembled in a limited state. Minimized components are required to form the ceramic valve core, thus lowering the cost, improving the control and extending service life.

Abstract

The present invention provides a spool seat with a positioning structure, which resolves the shortcomings of the assembly of a typical spool ceramic disc and spool seat. The spool seat of the present invention is provided with a chamber space for locating the fixed ceramic disc. The chamber space is provided with an internal locating portion which comprises an internal locating flange and external locating flange. An external locating portion is protruded from the chamber space. The chamber space is divided into inlet space and outlet space via the arrangement of internal locating portion. It is possible to eliminate the space restrictions for the fixed ceramic disc, and also prevent the rotation and slide or displacement when the fixed ceramic disc is assembled into the chamber space of the spool seat.

Abstract

The present invention provides a lateral draft tube for a water control valve core, which is defined by a through-type groove and upper and lower openings. The through-type groove is sleeved around the shell of the water control valve core. The upper and lower portions have different diameters on the external wall of the draft tube. A ring flange is formed on the upper portion, and a guide ring surface is formed on the lower portion. The ring flange is provided with a sealing ring, and a drainage portion is arranged at the lower end of the draft tube to connect the through-type groove and guide ring surface. The draft tube can be located higher than the water control valve core, such that upward flow of the guide ring surface is not limited by the water control valve core. Thus, the upward flow of the water control valve core improves.

Abstract

A ceramic valve core has a multi-stage positioning structure. The multi-stage positioning structure includes a first snapper, which can move along with the swaying motion of the brake valve handle of the ceramic valve core, and a second snapper, which is an integrated component positioned correspondingly to the displacement track of the said first snapper. At the corresponding ends of the first snapper and the second snapper, there is a snap ring mated with at least two pin joint ends. The positioning structure also includes a flexible member, which allows the first snapper or second snapper to operate flexibly. The multi-stage positioning structure of the present invention is sturdy because the first snapper is of a combined type and is flexible thanks to the flexible member.

The faucet valve structure of two way automatic repositioning function includes a base ring, resilient spring, activating ring, and linking component. The base ring has a protruding block placed thereon. The resilient spring is placed on the base ring, which includes a first and second effector. The activating ring is placed on the resilient spring, which includes a first support that corresponds to the protruding block and a second support that corresponds to the second effector. The linking component is placed on the top end of the rotary base, and it has a crosswise protruding extension. When the user is using the faucet, whether it is on hot water mode or cold water mode, the brake valve shaft can be repositioned to the middle position, so that when the user is turning on the water regardless of warm or cold, it ensures safety from a burn injury.
