Any structural modification, change in the proportional relation or size adjustment should fall within the scope that can be covered by the technical contents disclosed in the invention without affecting the effects and objects achievable by the invention. Moreover, the terms such as upper, lower, left, right, intermediate and one used in the present description are also merely for the sake of description and clarity and are not intended to limit the implementable scope of the invention, and the change or adjustment in the relative relation should also be considered within the implementable scope of the invention without substantial changes in the technical contents. The specific structures can be described with reference to the drawings of the patent application.

[0023] In the following embodiments, the directions are defined by the arrow directions in FIG. 1 of the paper, the left side of the paper is the left direction, the right side of the paper is the right direction, the upper side of the paper is the upper direction, the lower side of the paper is the lower direction, the front side perpendicular to the paper is the front direction, the rear side perpendicular to the paper is the rear direction, the cavity of the faucet body is the inside and the outer side wall of the faucet body is the outside.

[0024] As shown in FIGS. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, a tube-in-tube pull-out faucet comprises a faucet body 1 and an outer tube 2 fixed to the faucet body 1, and further comprises a tube-in-tube pull-out device 3 located above the faucet body 1, wherein the tube pull-out device 3 comprises an inner tube joint 31, an inner tube joint nut 32, an inner tube 33, a first spring bracket 34, a first pull-out tube joint 35, a stretchable pull-out tube 36 and a telescopic spring 37 which are disposed in a cavity of the outer tube 2, one end of the inner tube joint 31 is sleeved on the faucet body 1 or the outer tube 2 and the other end thereof is screwed to the inner tube joint nut 32, the inner tube joint 31 is provided with an integrally formed joint portion 311, an outer side wall of the joint portion 311 is in sliding fit with an inner side wall of one end of the inner tube 33, the other end of the inner tube 33 is sequentially passed through the first spring bracket 34 and the first pull-out tube joint 35 and arranged in the pull-out tube 36, the first spring bracket 34 is arranged above the inner tube joint nut 32, the first pull-out tube joint 35 is sleeved in the inner tube joint nut 32, one end of the pull-out tube 36 is movably sleeved on the first pull-out tube joint 35, the telescopic spring 37 is wound around an outer side wall of the pull-out tube 36, one end of the telescopic spring 37 is fixed on the first spring bracket 34, the other end of the pull-out tube 36 is screwed with a second pull-out joint 38, one end of the second pull-out joint 38 is communicated with one end of the inner tube 33, the other end of the second pull-out joint 38 is in screwed communication with a pull-out water-discharge head 4 which is movably sleeved in the outer tube 2, a second spring bracket 39 is sleeved on outer side walls of the second pull-out joint 38 and the pull-out water-discharge head 4, and the other end of the telescopic spring 37 is fixed to the second spring bracket 39. By utilizing such structure, compared with the prior art, the invention can reduce the interference with many parts or even difficulty in pulling during pull-out due to no need to pull the inner tube 33 from below the faucet by means of the tube-in-tube pull-out device 3 arranged above the faucet body 1 in combination with the tube-in-tube structure consisting of the outer tube 2, the pull-out tube 36 and the inner tube 33, has the advantages of convenience and smoothness in pull-out, a simple structure and low cost, can be replaced as a whole when needed, can be conveniently and quickly repaired with high efficiency after sale, can be rotated by 360 degrees and is convenient to use and has no pull out tube protruding below the faucet mounting as all the pull out tubes and mechanism are mounted within the spout.

[0025] Further, in order to improve the airtightness, as shown in FIG. 3, the tube-in-tube pull-out faucet further comprises a low-pressure sealing ring 5 and a back-pressure oil seal ring 6 which are sleeved on an outer side wall of the inner tube 33, wherein the back-pressure oil seal ring 6 is arranged above the low-pressure sealing ring 5, and the low-pressure sealing ring 5 and the back-pressure oil seal ring 6 are located in the first spring bracket 34. In this way, the airtightness is improved and water leakage can be avoided. In addition, when the pull-out tube 36 is released for backlash, the arrangement of the back-pressure oil seal ring 6 can effectively counteract the impact force and can reduce the wear of the first spring bracket 34, thereby prolonging the service life and reducing the maintenance cost.

[0026] Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the tube-in-tube pull-out faucet further comprises a first sealing ring 7, a second sealing ring 8 and a third sealing ring 9, wherein the first sealing ring 7 and the third sealing ring 9 are clamped on an inner wall of the outer tube 2 in a spaced manner, and the second sealing ring 8 is sleeved on the inner tube joint nut 32 and located between the first sealing ring 7 and the third sealing ring 9.

[0027] Further, the inner tube 33 is made of a PA material (or similar). However, its materials are not limited thereto, and the inner tube 33 may also be made of other materials, e.g. a rigid inner tube 33.

[0028] Further, as shown in FIGS. 1, 3 and 4, the outer tube 2, the inner tube 33 and the pull-out tube 36 are U-shaped.
