MOUNTING STRUCTURE FOR FAUCET BODY AND SHAFT
A mounting structure for a faucet body and a shaft includes a faucet body made of a zinc alloy material, a shaft seat assembly, a shaft and a press cover. The faucet body has a vertical passage and a mounting passage. The shaft seat assembly is disposed separately from the faucet body. The shaft seat assembly includes a shaft seat located in the vertical passage and a sleeve located in the mounting passage. The shaft is inserted in the sleeve and located between the press cover and the shaft seat. The mounting structure can reduce the material cost of the faucet body and ensure the water quality and the strength of the faucet body.
Magnetic coupling for sprayheads
A faucet including a faucet head, a body and a magnetic coupling releasably coupling the faucet head to the faucet body.

Pull-Out Faucet
A pull-out faucet contains: a hollow body, a control valve assembly, a water supply pipe set, a water hose, and a spray head. The hollow body has a longitudinal chamber, an accommodation groove, and a first orifice. The control valve assembly includes: a right-angle valve block having multiple inlets, an outlet, and multiple apertures. A positioning element is configured to connect the right-angle valve block so as to accommodate a part of the right-angle valve block in the accommodation groove, a mixing valve is configured to communicate with the multiple apertures, a first cap is configured to position the mixing valve in the accommodation groove, and an operation lever is configured to turn on/off and to control the mixing valve.
Faucet having support bracket
A faucet having a support bracket contains: a body, a flexible outlet pipe, a spray head, and a support bracket. The body includes a vertical axis extending along a central portion thereof; and the flexible outlet pipe extends outwardly from a top of the body and includes an outflow segment. The spray head is connected with the outflow segment, the support bracket includes a first rotatable connector disposed on the body and includes a first tab extending outwardly from the first rotatable connector, wherein the first tab has a first rotation axis separated a distance from and perpendicular to the vertical axis. The support bracket includes a second rotatable connector having a head segments and a distal segment, wherein the head segment is rotatably connected with the first tab to form a first movable joint, and the distal segment is connected with or removed from the spray head.
Quick connect faucet
A quick connect faucet contains: a hollow body, a control valve assembly, and a water supply set. The hollow body includes a longitudinal chamber and a channel, the longitudinal chamber has an accommodation groove having a fixing orifice and a first stepped. The control valve assembly includes a holder having a first locking rib, a cold-water conduit, a hot-water conduit, a mixing-water conduit, a bottom fence, and a fastener. The cold-water conduit has a cold-water inlet having a hot-water inlet, the bottom fence has at least one locking protrusion, and the fastener has at least two cutouts. The water supply set includes a cold-water inflow tube and a hot-water inflow tube, each of which has an outlet segment, wherein the outlet segment of the cold-water inflow tube has a peripheral trench, and the outlet segment of the hot-water inflow tube has a peripheral trench.
CONTAINER FILLING FAUCET
A faucet includes a spout, a water level sensor, and a controller. The spout includes a water outlet having a first set of nozzles oriented at an angle with respect to a central axis defined by the water outlet such that water discharged from the first set of nozzles converges at the central axis at a focal distance from the water outlet. The water level sensor is disposed on the spout and is configured to detect a distance between the water outlet and a level of water in a container disposed below the water outlet. The controller is configured to control the flow of water through the water outlet based on a comparison between the detected distance and the focal distance.
Magnetic coupling for sprayheads
A faucet including a faucet head, a body and a magnetic coupling releasably coupling the faucet head to the faucet body.
FAUCET HAVING SUPPORT BRACKET
A faucet having a support bracket contains: a body, a flexible outlet pipe, a spray head, and a support bracket The body includes a vertical axis extending along a central portion thereof, and the flexible outlet pipe extends outwardly from a top of the body and includes an outflow segment. The spray head is connected with the outflow segment, the support bracket includes a first rotatable connector disposed on the body and includes a first tab extending outwardly from the first rotatable connector, wherein the first tab has a first rotation axis separated a distance from and perpendicular to the vertical axis. The support bracket includes a second rotatable connector having a head segments and a distal segment, wherein the head segment is rotatably connected with the first tab to form a first movable joint, and the distal segment is connected with or removed from the spray head.
Sensor-operated pull-out faucet
A sensor-operated pull-out faucet can include a spout having a hose disposed therein, a pull-out spray head fluidly coupled to the hose and configured to dock at an end of the spout, and a sensor assembly disposed at least partially in the spout proximate the end of the spout. The sensor assembly can include a sensor and a shutter disposed adjacent the sensor. The shutter can be operable to obscure the sensor in a closed state and expose the sensor in an open state. The faucet can also include a control unit communicatively coupled to the sensor and configured to control fluid flow through the hose and the pull-out spray head based on control signals generated by the sensor.
