Abstract
A retractable faucet with guided mechanical reset includes a retractable flexible pipe; an outlet portion having an end face and being connected to the retractable flexible pipe; a weight; and a support through which the retractable flexible pipe passes and connects to the weight and that has a front-end face that contacts the end face of the outlet portion. The support has a guiding groove and the outlet portion is provided with a guiding structure that is surrounded by and coupled to the guiding groove. The guiding groove has guiding surfaces continuously arranged from a lowest position to a highest position, and the guiding structure and the guiding groove move relative to one another due to gravity of the weight to cause the guiding structure to move to the highest position to bringing the end face of the outlet portion in contact with the front-end face of the support.
