The present invention relates to the technical field of faucet installation, and particularly relates to a snap-fit quick installation device on a faucet platform.
The installation of a conventional faucet usually requires bending over, squatting, or lying under a platform surface to assemble or lock the faucet, which causes much inconvenience for a faucet installer.
In response to the above problems, the inventor has proposed various solutions in which installation can be conducted on the platform surface, for example, a rotating arm of a flippable lever is taken as a structure of a fixing seat and a faucet body with a locking group. Although this solution can realize the installation of the faucet on the platform, because the faucet body is provided with a lock and a device, there is a locking hole on the surface of the faucet, which affects the appearance of the surface of the faucet and also has a certain restriction on the size of the faucet. In addition, the rotating arm of the level consists of two movable plates and a fixing rotating seat. The two movable plates need to be in a relatively balanced state to play a stabilizing role, which has complicated processing and a certain restriction on the size of an installation hole of the platform surface.
The technical problems to be solved by the present invention are as follows: in view of the above-mentioned defects in the prior art, a snap-fit quick installation device on a faucet platform is provided. A plurality of snap-fits are arranged on the upper end of a fixing block on the platform to be cooperatively connected to the inside of a faucet body so that fixation can be completed by a supporting force of the snap-fit. Not only can the quick installation on the platform surface be achieved, but also no positioning holes are required on the faucet body, which does not affect the appearance of the faucet, is suitable for the platform surface with smaller installation holes, and can be suitable for installation of various styles of pull-out faucets and various platforms.
In order to solve the above problem, The present invention adopts the following technical solution:

As shown in FIGS. 1-3, a snap-fit quick installation device on the faucet platform includes a fixing block 1 on the platform, an inner bushing 2, a water inlet pipe 3, and a pipe outer sleeve 4. The inner bushing 3 is mounted on the inner side of the bottom of the fixing block 1 on the platform. The pipe outer sleeve 4 passes through the inner bushing 2 and is snap-connected to the upper end of the inner bushing 2. The water inlet pipe 3 is mounted on the inner side of the pipe outer sleeve 4. A plurality of snap-fits 5 are provided on the upper end of the fixing block 1 on the platform. A baffle 6 on the platform is provided on the outer side of the bottom of the fixing block 1 on the platform. It can be understood that the fixing block 1 on the platform and the inner bushing 2 can both be made of hard plastic materials, and the like. The water inlet pipe 3 and the pipe outer sleeve 4 can both be made of aluminum alloy materials, and like.
Specifically, the upper end of the table fixing block 1 is inserted into the inner side of the bottom of the faucet body 14. A plurality of snap-connected grooves 7 adapted to the snap-fits 5 are arranged on the inner side of the bottom of the faucet body 14. It can be understood that the snap-connected groove 7 is configured to be cooperatively clamped, fastened and fixed to the snap-fit 5, which is convenient for installation and disassembly. When the snap-fit 5 is squeezed inward, there is an outward elastic force until the snap-fit is snap-connected into the snap-connected groove 7, thereby abutting against the inner wall of the snap-connected groove 7.
Specifically, a water pipe through hole 8 is formed at the upper end of the fixing block 1 on the platform. The upper end of the water inlet pipe 3 and the upper end of the pipe outer sleeve 4 pass through the water pipe through hole 8. The upper end of the pipe outer sleeve 4 has a height lower than that of the snap-fit 5. It can be understood that the pipe outer sleeve 4 is configured to wrap the water inlet pipe 3 to play a guiding and sealing role to avoid water leakage.
Specifically, a plurality of slots of the inner bushing 9 are arranged on the outer side of the inner bushing 2. A plurality of snap-connected blocks 10 adapted to slots of the inner bushing 9 are arranged on the inner side of the bottom of the fixing block 1 on the platform. It can be understood that the outer peripheral wall of the snap-connected block 10 abuts against the inner peripheral wall of the slot of the inner bushing 9 and is configured for mutual fastening and connection between the inner bushing 2 and the fixing block 1 on the platform.
Specifically, a plurality of right-angle grooves 11 are formed at the upper end of the table fixing block 1. The right-angle groove 11 is located between the snap-fits 5. The cross-sectional area of the snap-fit 5 increases from top to bottom. It can be understood that the right-angle groove 11 is configured to distribute the snap-fits 5 equidistantly. The snap-fits 5 have the same shape and are distributed in sequence along the edge of a circle, which is also more labor-saving for inserting the fixing block 1 into the faucet body 1.
Specifically, a clamping block 12 is slidably sleeved on the outer side of the water inlet pipe 3. A nut 13 is sleeved on the outer side of the bottom of the water inlet pipe 3. It can be understood that during installation, the water inlet pipe 3 and the pipe outer sleeve 4 are directly inserted downward into an installation hole on the platform so that a baffle 6 on the platform of the fixing block 1 on the platform blocks the installation hole. The faucet body 14 is sleeved on the upper end of the fixing block 1 on the platform, so that the snap-fit 5 and the snap-connected groove 7 are tightly clamped together, which is more convenient for installation.
It can be understood that the present invention has a reasonable design and a unique structure, which can not only achieve quick installation on the platform, but also does not require positioning holes on the faucet body 14. Fixation can be completed by the supporting force of the internal snap-fit 5, without affecting the appearance of the faucet. Moreover, because the fixing block 1 on the platform for fastening is an integral body with a smaller volume, which is suitable for the platform with smaller installation holes, and can be suitable for installation of various styles of pull-out faucets and various platform surfaces.
The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the described embodiments. For those skilled in the art, various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these implementations without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention, and still fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
