BEST MODE
[0059] Hereinafter, a filter spout attached to a washbasin faucet according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
(Example 1)
[0060]
[0061] Referring to 2 to 4, the filter spout 100 is screwed to the washbasin faucet spout. The filter spout 100 includes a connection nozzle 110 from which a vertical connection tube 113 extends downward; an elbow pipe 130 in which a vertical receiving pipe 131 is formed in the vertical direction so that the vertical connection tube 113 of the connection nozzle 110 is vertically inserted, and a horizontal receiving pipe 133 is formed in the horizontal direction so that a horizontal connection tube 153 of a nozzle body 150 is horizontally inserted; a nozzle body 150 having a horizontal connection tube 153 formed on the side thereof so as to be inserted in the horizontal direction into the horizontal receiving pipe 133 of the elbow pipe 130, an upper portion of the nozzle body 150 is opened to accommodate the water filter assembly 160; a nozzle cap 170 for accommodating the aerator 180 therein while being coupled to the upper portion of the nozzle body 150; a horizontal rotation member 120 that allows the vertical connection tube 113 of the connection nozzle 110 to be horizontally rotatably coupled to the vertical receiving pipe 131 of the elbow pipe 130; and a longitudinal rotation member 140 for vertically rotating the horizontal connection tube 153 of the nozzle body 150 to the horizontal receiving pipe 133 of the elbow pipe 130 .
[0062] The connection nozzle 110 is composed of a head part 111 screwed to the faucet outlet of the washbasin with a screw thread formed on the outside, and a vertical connection tube 113 extending below the head part 111. The inside of the connection nozzle 110 has a hole in the top and bottom so that a water channel is formed. When the connection nozzle 110 is screwed to the faucet, a connection nozzle packing 115 for watertightness is interposed therebetween.
[0063] In the elbow pipe 130, a vertical receiving pipe 131 and a horizontal receiving pipe 133 are connected at right angles to each other. While the vertical connection tube 113 of the connection nozzle 110 is inserted into the vertical receiving pipe 131, it is rotated in the horizontal direction by the horizontal rotation member 120. While the horizontal connection tube 153 of the nozzle body 150 is inserted into the horizontal receiving pipe 133, it is vertically rotated by the vertical rotation member 140. The horizontal rotation member 120 and the vertical rotation member 140 will be described later.
[0064] The nozzle body 150 has a horizontal connection tube 153 is formed on the side so as to be inserted into the horizontal receiving pipe 133 of the elbow pipe 130 in the horizontal direction. An upper portion of the nozzle body 150 is opened to accommodate the water filter assembly 160, and a thread is formed at the upper inlet side so that the nozzle cap 170 is screwed therein.
[0065] The water filter assembly 160 includes a cylindrical filter 161 with a through hole, a lower filter cap 163 that is closed at lower part while being coupled to a lower hole of a cylindrical filter 161 at upper part, and an upper filter cap 165 with a through hole while being coupled to a upper hole of the cylindrical filter 161 at lower part. A packing groove 1651 is formed on an outer circumferential surface of the upper filter cap 165, and a v-packing 1653 is coupled to the packing groove 1651. The water purification filter assembly 160 filters rust or foreign substances. The purified water passing through the cylindrical filter 161 from the outside to the inside comes out through the upper part of the upper filter cap 165. In addition, due to the v-packing 1653, the upper filter cap 165 and the nozzle body 150 are watertight, so that the water containing rust or foreign substances supplied from the horizontal connection tube 153 of the nozzle body 150 must pass thorough cylindrical filter 161.
[0066] The nozzle cap 170 has a screw thread formed inside the lower end so as to be coupled with the upper portion of the nozzle body 150, and has a hole in the top and bottom, and accommodates the aerator 180 therein. In addition, the nozzle cap 170 has an air intake 171 through which air can pass through the inside and outside. Also, the aerator 180 has an air hole 181 through which air can be introduced.
[0067] A sealing packing 190 is sealed between the nozzle cap 170 and the nozzle body 160 to prevent the purified water from leaking out.
[0068]
[0069] Referring to
(Example 2)
[0070] In the second embodiment, only the structure of the water filter assembly is different from that of the first embodiment, but other parts are the same. Therefore, only the water filter assembly will be described.
[0071]
[0072] Referring to
[0073] The water filter assembly 260 filters rust or foreign substances. The purified water that has passed through the cylindrical filter 261 from the outside to the inside comes out through the upper part of the upper filter cap 265. In addition, the water filter assembly 260 is positioned on the nozzle body 150, and the nozzle cap 170 is screwed to the nozzle body 150 to assemble. When assembling, the upper filter cap 265 is sealed to the sealing packing 190 due to the repulsive force of the spring 2633 between the lower filter cap 263 and the nozzle body 150. Water containing rust and/or foreign substances supplied from the horizontal connection tube 153 of the nozzle body 150 must pass through the cylindrical filter 261. (See
[0074] In addition, when the nozzle cap 170 is disassembled from the nozzle body 150, the water filter assembly 260 comes out of the nozzle body 150 due to the repulsive force of the spring 2633, so that the water filter assembly 260 can be easily removed and replaced. (See
MODE FOR INVENTION
[0075] Hereinafter, the horizontal rotation member 120 and the vertical rotation member 140 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described. Each coupling of the horizontal rotation member 120 and the vertical rotation member 140 is different only in the direction and size, and since the configuration and operation principle are the same, only the horizontal rotation member 120 will be described with the drawings.

[0077]
[0078] Referring to
[0079]
[0080] Referring to
[0081] The width of the lower locking jaw 1233 is greater than the inner diameter of the fixing block 121. Accordingly, the lower portion of the rotation pin 123 is cut to be formed a cutout 1237 so that the lower locking jaw 1233 can be bent into the fixing block 121 to pass through. In addition, a projection 1239 radially protruding is formed inside the lower portion of the rotation pin 123. The projection 1239 is matched with the connection tube groove 1131 formed in the vertical connection tube 113 of the connection nozzle 110.
[0082]
[0083] Referring to
[0084] In order to rotationally fix the vertical connection tube 113 to the vertical receiving pipe 131, the O-ring 127 is first inserted into the extended vertical receiving pipe 131 together with the O-ring step 1311.
[0085] Next, the fixing block 121 is inserted into the vertical receiving pipe 131, and is forcibly press-fitted by the hard teeth 1211 formed radially outside the fixing block 121. The lower end of the fixing block 121 is in contact with the fixing block step 1313, and the upper end of the fixing block 121 is aligned with the upper end of the vertical receiving pipe 131.
[0086] Next, the rotation pin 123 is inserted into the inner diameter of the fixing block 121. The lower locking jaw 1233 of the rotation pin 123 may be narrowed by the cutout 1237, and may pass through the inner diameter of the fixing block 121. After passing through the inner diameter of the fixing block 121, the lower locking jaw 1233 of the rotating pin 123 is extended again and is caught in the fixing groove 1213 of the fixing block 121 so that the rotation pin 123 prevents it from coming out the fixing block 121. In addition, as described above, the height h2 of the rotation section 1235 of the rotation pin 123 is relatively wider than the height h1 of the fixing block 121 so that the rotation pin 123 can move up and down in a state in which it is inserted into the fixing block 121.
[0087] Next, the vertical connection tube 113 of the connection nozzle 110 is inserted into the inner diameter of the rotation pin 123, and at this time, the projection 1239 of the rotation pin is inserted into the connection tube groove 1131 of the vertical connection tube 113.
[0088] Next, when the rotation pin 123 connected to the vertical connection tube 113 is raised upward, a gap is formed between the upper locking jaw 1231 of the rotation pin 123 and the fixing block 121. Insert the fixing clip 125 in the gap so that the rotation pin 123 does not go down in the direction of the fixing block 121. In this state, the lower locking projection 1233 of the rotation 123 pin presses the inclined surface of the fixing groove 1213 of the fixing block 121. On the other side, the rotating pin projection 1239 presses the connection tube groove 1131 of the vertical connection tube 113. The vertical connection tube 113 is constrained by the rotation pin 123 to prevent it from being pulled out by water pressure or external force.
[0089]
[0090] Referring to
[0091] According to the present invention, the water outlet connected to the faucet of the washbasin is configured to rotate 360 degrees in the horizontal and vertical directions, respectively, so that unlike the prior art in which the water jetting height is lowered, water can be discharged at an angle and direction suitable for the user’s convenience.

[0095]
[0096] Referring to
[0097]
[0098] Referring to
[0099] Next, the vertical connection tube 113 of the connection nozzle 110 is inserted into the entrance of the vertical receiving pipe of the elbow pipe 130 to which the other configuration is combined (step ②).
[0100] Next, by inserting the fixing clip 125 into the gap between the rotation pin and the fixing block, the vertical connection tube 113 is rotationally fixed to the elbow pipe 130 (step ③).
[0101] Direct installation may be difficult due to the size of the filter spout attached to the washbasin faucet. It is convenient for users to install by themselves because the installation is divided into ①②③ steps above.
[0102] While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to preferred embodiments thereof, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the following claims.
