DETAILED DESCRIPTION

(15) The technical solutions of the present invention are further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

(16) Referring to 1-11, a water outlet terminal with the function of purified water outlet includes a body 1 and a mandrel 2 disposed in the body 1. The end surface of the mandrel 2 is coaxially provided with a raw water outlet hole 21 and a purified water outlet Hole 22;

(17) The mandrel 2 is provided with a raw water inlet cavity 23 and a purified water inlet cavity 24 on the same side; one end of the raw water inlet cavity 23 and the purified water inlet cavity 24 communicate with the raw water outlet hole 21 and the purified water outlet hole 22, the other end is the raw water inlet hole 25 and the purified water inlet hole 26;

(18) Further comprising a water inlet pipe 3, the water inlet pipe 3 comprises a raw water inlet pipe and a purified water inlet pipe nested in a coaxial manner, and respectively communicated with the raw water inlet hole 25 and the purified water inlet hole 26. Wherein the raw water inlet hole 25 is always in communication with the raw water inlet pipe; and a purified water opening member 4 is disposed between the purified water inlet hole 26 and the purified water inlet cavity 24, and the purified water opening member 4 is switching between the first position and the second position, so that the purified water inlet hole 26 and the purified water inlet cavity 24 are in an open communication state or an isolated closed state.

(19) In this embodiment, the water outlet terminal is a kitchen pull-out faucet, which is merely an example in this embodiment. Those skilled in the art may apply the above structure to other water outlet terminals, which is a simple replacement of the present embodiment.

(20) Therefore, one of the above water outlet terminals with the function of purified water outlet has two water outlet modes of raw water and purified water. And, because the raw water waterway remains normally open, you can turn off the faucet water inlet switch to close the raw water waterway. While the purified water open member 4 of the purified water is set in the water outlet terminal. The user can operate the purified water open member to open and close the purified water waterway, which has nothing to do with the switching of the raw water waterway, thus achieving the separation of the two waterway operations. Users are not prone to misuse during use.

(21) At the same time, since the raw water outlet hole 21 and the purified water outlet hole 22 are coaxially arranged, the raw water inlet cavity 23 and the purified water inlet cavity 24 may be disposed on the same side of the mandrel 2. Therefore, the open ends 231 and 241 of the raw water inlet cavity 23 and the purified water inlet cavity 24 along the water flow direction are also on the same side, in this way, the mandrel 2 can seal the open ends 231, 241 with only one weld tab 5 after the molding. However, in the traditional mandrel, the open ends of the raw water cavity and the purified water cavity are respectively arranged on two sides of the mandrel, that is, two pieces of welding pieces are required to be welded. Therefore, the above technical solution is simpler in structure, less in parts and less in processing requirements.

(22) Moreover, the above structure of the mandrel 2 maximizes the space of the raw water inlet cavity 23 and the purified water inlet cavity 24, which is favorable for increasing the flow rate of the water outlet. If the raw water inlet cavity and the purified water inlet cavity are set on both sides of the mandrel, it will cause the waterway to be complex, and the water space to become smaller, resulting in increased tube resistance, the water flow at the water outlet terminal will be reduced when the water pressure is lower, lower the use stability of the water outlet terminal.

(23) The side of the purified water inlet cavity 24 away from the raw water inlet cavity 23 is further provided with a second open end 242, and through the second open end 242 the mandrel corresponds to part of the core, thereby forming a water passage cavity extending in a direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the mandrel. The second open end 242 is welded and sealed with the second weld tab 51, so that the purified water can finally be discharged from the center of the mandrel.

(24) In addition, in order to further increase the function of the pull-out faucet, the raw water outlet hole 21 includes at least two water outlet holes with different outlet forms. In this embodiment, the raw water outlet hole 21 includes a shower water outlet hole 211 and a bubble water outlet hole 212. The shower water outlet hole 211 is disposed on the outer periphery of the bubble water outlet hole 212 and concentrically arranged with the bubble water outlet hole 212. According to other needs, raw water is not limited to the shape of water shower and bubble water above, you can also set the other forms of water. As long as there are two different forms of the water outlet effect, it is within the scope of the present invention.

(25) The purified water outlet hole 22 is disposed at the center of the bubble water outlet hole 212. The end of the mandrel is fixedly connected with a cover assembly 7, and comprises a hollow water outlet cover and a double channel aerator. The shower water outlet hole 211, the bubble water outlet hole 212 and the purified water outlet hole 22 are respectively connected with the water outlet cover 711, the outer channel 712 of the double channel aerator, the inner channel 72 of the double channel aerator. Therefore, the purified water flows out of the inner channel of the double channel aerator, and the raw water flow through the outer channel of the aerator forms bubble water outlet, and the water that does not flow through the aerator forms a normal shower water.

(26) In order to facilitate the user to switch between the two raw water outlet forms, a raw water switch member 6 for switching the raw water outlet form is also included; when the raw water switch member 6 is operated, one of the shower water outlet hole 211 and the bubble water outlet hole 212 is open and the other is sealed. In order to achieve the water flow switching conveniently.

(27) The specific structure is as follows: the side of the mandrel 2 facing away from the raw water inlet cavity 23 and the purified water inlet cavity 24 is provided with a first installation hole 27 for installing the raw water switching member 6; The raw water switching member 6 includes a key 61 and a first switching shaft 62; the first switching shaft 62 is disposed between the raw water inlet cavity 23 and the raw water outlet hole 21 through the first installation hole 27; the key 61 is connected to a fulcrum. The two ends of the key 61 is pressing ends. One of the pressing ends is disposed in conjunction with the end of the first switching shaft 62 exposed outside the first installation hole 27 so as to drive the first switching shaft 62 to move, and then one of the shower water outlet hole 211 and the bubble water outlet hole 212 is communicated with the raw water inlet cavity 23 and the other is sealed and separated from the raw water inlet cavity 23.

(28) In this embodiment, the mandrel 2 is further provided with a second installation hole 28 for installing the purified water open member 4 on the same side as the first installation hole 27;

(29) The purified water opening member 4 includes a button 41 and a second switching shaft 42; the second switching shaft 42 is disposed between the purified water inlet hole 26 and the purified water inlet cavity 24 through the second installation hole 28; The button 41 is interlocked with the second switching shaft 42 via a ball-point pen mechanism. Pressing the button 41 drives the second switching shaft 42 to cycle switch between the first position and the second position. the outer periphery of the second switching shaft 42 is provided with two first sealing ring 421 and second sealing ring 422 coaxially with the second switching shaft 42; and the areas of the first sealing ring 421 and the second sealing ring 422 are the same; and when the purified water opening member 4 is in the second position, the first sealing ring 421 and the second sealing ring 422 are respectively located at two sides of the purified water inlet hole 26 to close the purified water opening member 4. Since the areas of the first sealing ring 421 and the second sealing ring 422 are the same, when in the second position, the water pressures received by the first sealing ring 421 and the second sealing ring 422 are equal to each other in magnitude and opposite in direction. Therefore, the user presses the button 41 to switch from the second position to the first position, only the elastic force of the spring in the ball-point pen mechanism needs to be overcome, the switching force is relatively small, and the switching feel is good.

(30) Referring to FIG. 12-14, in this embodiment, the water outlet terminal also includes a three-way valve 8; the three-way valve 8 is provided with a raw water interface 81 and a purified water interface 82, and is provided therein with a raw water introducing cavity and a purified water introducing cavity independent of each other.
