DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0016] With reference to FIGS. 1 to 5 for a water spray base for fire in accordance with the present invention, the water spray base comprises the following elements:

[0017] A water inlet pipe 1 is led and coupled to a water source, and has a disc-shaped base 11 disposed at a bottom end of the water inlet pipe 1.

[0018] A fixed base 2 substantially in form of a T-shaped tee is pivotally installed to an upper end of the water inlet pipe 1 and formed by a longitudinal pipe fitting 21 and a transversal connecting pipe 22, and the pipe fitting 21 is pivotally coupled to the water inlet pipe 1 by a waterproof washer 23 and a plurality of steel balls 24, and a side of the pipe fitting 21 is screwed and coupled with a knob 25, so that the fixed base 2 can be rotated or positioned at 360°, and an earbud 26 is disposed at the middle of an upper end of the connecting pipe 22.

[0019] A water outlet pipe 3 substantially in form of a C-shaped tee is pivotally coupled to an upper end of the fixed base 2, and both sides of the bottom end of the water outlet pipe 3 have a joint pipe 31 each, and the upper end of the water outlet pipe 3 has a nozzle 32, and the joint pipe 31 is pivotally coupled to the fixed base 2 by means of an adapter 33, two waterproof washers 34 and a plurality of steel balls 35 and disposed on both sides of the connecting pipe 22, and an end cover 36 is provided for sealing the water outlet pipe 3; and an earbud 37 is disposed at the middle of an upper end of the nozzle 32.

[0020] An adjusting device 4 includes a support stand 41 pivotally installed to the fixed base 26 and swingable back and forth, and an adjusting rod 42 is installed on both sides of the support stand 41 and has an end pivotally coupled to the earbud 37 (or the nozzle) of the water outlet pipe, and a cut plane is formed at an end surface of the upper side of the support stand 41, and a knob 43 is screwed and coupled with the support stand 41 and provided for flexibly displacing the adjusting rod 42 to drive the nozzle 32 to change its angle of elevation or depression.

[0021] With reference to FIGS. 2 to 5 for the aforementioned structural assembly, the water inlet pipe 1 is supported securely by the base 11, and the fixed base 2 is disposed at an upper end of the water inlet pipe 1, and the water outlet pipe 3 is installed to an upper end of the fixed base 2, and the adjusting device 4 is installed at an upper end of the water outlet pipe 3. When the knob 25 is released, the fixed base 2 and the water outlet pipe 3 is rotated to left or right for 360°, and after the water outlet pipe 3 is rotated to a required angle, the knob 25 is secured to position the water outlet pipe 3.

[0022] When the knob 43 is released, the support stand 41 may be used as a fulcrum to flexibly displace the adjusting rod 42 to drive the water outlet pipe 3 to adjust the angle of elevation or depression of the nozzle 32 as shown in FIGS. 3, 4, 6 and 7. After the nozzle 32 is adjusted to the required angle of elevation or depression, the knob 43 is secured to position the nozzle 32.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and effects.

[0024] 1. The water outlet pipe 3 may be rotated to the left or right for 360° easily, conveniently and quickly by releasing or securing the knob 43.

[0025] 2. The adjusting rod 42 may be displaced flexibly by releasing the knob 43 to drive the nozzle 32 to change its angle of elevation or depression, and then the knob 43 may be secured and positioned, so as to complete the operation of adjusting and controlling the angle of elevation or depression of the water spray base. The operation is flexible, simple and convenient. In other words, the present invention can adjust the angle of elevation or depression of the nozzle 32 conveniently and easily by turning the knob 43 and stretching the adjusting rod 42.

[0026] 3. The main components of the present invention includes the water inlet pipe 1, the fixed base 2, the water outlet pipe 3 and the adapter 33 which are pipe members and do not require any flange for combining the pipe members, so that the total weight can be reduced to achieve the lightweight effect, simplify the manufacturing process, and lower the manufacturing cost significantly.

[0027] 4. Since the water spray base of the present invention is assembled by pipe members, therefore the interior of the water spray base is smooth, and the water flows naturally and smoothly to reduce the resistance and increase the water output quantity.

[0028] 5. The water outlet pipe 3 is substantially C-shaped, so that water flows on both sides are concentrated and collected by the nozzle 32 before spraying out, and such arrangement not just provides a smooth spray only, but also improves the spraying performance.

[0029] While the invention has been described by means of specific embodiments, numerous modifications and variations could be made thereto by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention set forth in the claims.
