A rough-in assembly for free-standing faucets is revealed. The rough-in assembly having at least a part thereof fixed under a floor includes a base, a first water-contact member and a second water-contact member separated from each other and disposed on the base, and a sleeve mounting seat connected to the base and provided with a top plate portion extending across the first and second water-contact members. Two first hollow-out holes are arranged at the top plate portion and corresponding to control valve sets of the water-contact members respectively. The top plate portion is also for installation and positioning of the free-standing faucet. The position and the direction of least one of the water-contact members can be adjusted so that the rough-in assembly is adapted to use in different water supply pipe arrangements. The disposition of the sleeve mounting seat ensures stability and aesthetics of the free-standing faucet.

Rough-in assembly for free-standing faucet

A faucet contains: a hollow body, a control assembly, an inlet pipe set, a mixing-water outlet pipe, a pull hose, a spray head, and an isolation pipe. The hollow body includes an inflow portion and an outflow portion. The control assembly includes a mixing valve and an operation element. The inlet pipe set includes a cold-water inlet pipe and a hot-water inlet pipe. The mixing-water outlet pipe includes a first connector and a second connector. The pull hose includes an inlet segment and an outlet segment. The spray head is connected with the outlet segment of the pull hose, and the spray head is removed from and fixed on the outflow portion of the hollow body. The isolation pipe includes a channel defined therein so that the pull hose slidably moves in the isolation pipe and avoids contacting with the inlet pipe set and the mixing-water outlet pipe.

Faucet

A weight assembly is fixed on a hose of a faucet and contains: a tubular retainer and a counterweight. The tubular retainer includes a first segment, a second segment, a fitting orifice, an opening, an engagement portion, and a forced portion. The counterweight includes a third segment, a fourth segment, a through orifice, and a press portion. After the tubular retainer is fitted on the hose, the fourth segment of the counterweight moves toward the first segment of the tubular retainer so that the press portion presses the forced portion of the tubular retainer after the tubular retainer is accommodated into the through orifice, and the forced portion retracts inward to actuate the engagement portion to engage with the hose.

Weight assembly for a faucet

A touch faucet contains: a body, a temperature control valve, a water control valve, and an actuation member. The body includes an inlet segment, an outlet segment, and a first cavity which has a first hole. The temperature control valve is housed in the first cavity and includes a water inflow portion configured to flow cold water and hot water, a mixing chamber in which the cold water and the hot water are mixed to form a mixing water, and a water outflow portion configured to flow the mix water. The water control valve includes an operation post touched to turn on the water control valve, such that the mixing water flows into the water outflow portion from the mixing chamber, and the actuation member partially exposes outside the body so as to be operated by a user to drive the operation post to move.

A faucet having a faucet base, a water hose, a faucet head, and a chamber is provided. A water valve is provided in the chamber and includes a driving member and a control valve movable between a first position enabling mixing of water and air and a second position enabling shut-off of a water flow. The faucet head further includes a sliding member slidably coupled with the faucet head to enable a user to operate the control valve within the water valve by operating the sliding member from a side of the faucet head.

Faucets providing mixed water and air flow

A faucet having a faucet base, a water hose, a faucet head, and a chamber is provided. A water valve is provided in the chamber and includes a driving member and a control valve movable between a first position enabling mixing of water and air and a second position enabling shut-off of a water flow. The faucet head further includes a control member movably coupled with the faucet head to enable operating the control valve within the water valve using magnets by operating the control member from or near a side of the faucet head.

Faucets providing water-and-air flow

A faucet having a faucet base, a water hose, a faucet head, and a chamber is provided. A water valve is provided in the chamber and includes a driving member and a control valve movable between a first position enabling mixing of water and air and a second position enabling shut-off of a water flow. The faucet head further includes a control member movably coupled with the faucet head to enable operating the control valve within the water valve by operating the control member from or near a side of the faucet head.

The faucet head further includes a control member rotatably coupled with the faucet head to enable a user to operate the control valve within the water valve by operating the control member from a side of the faucet head.

Faucets providing additional control for water flow

A touch spray head is removably connected on an outlet of a faucet body and contains: a casing, a fixing cylinder, a water valve, and a manual operation. The casing includes a surrounding fence, an accommodation space, and a through hole. The fixing cylinder is housed in the accommodation space and includes an inlet segment communicating with the outlet, an outlet segment, at least one first orifice defined between the inlet segment and the outlet segment, and a receiving zone. The water valve is accommodated in the fixing cylinder and includes an operation bar touched to movably turn on the water valve. The manual operation device is housed in the receiving zone and the through hole, and the manual operation device includes a driving portion formed in the through hole so as to be driven by a user to actuate the operation bar to move.

Touch spray head

A faucet having a support bracket contains: a body, a flexible outlet pipe, a spray head, and a support bracket. The body includes a vertical axis extending along a central portion thereof; and the flexible outlet pipe extends outwardly from a top of the body and includes an outflow segment. The spray head is connected with the outflow segment, the support bracket includes a first rotatable connector disposed on the body and includes a first tab extending outwardly from the first rotatable connector, wherein the first tab has a first rotation axis separated a distance from and perpendicular to the vertical axis.
