    [0001] FRAMEWORK OF THE INVENTION
    [0002] Field of invention
    [0003] The present invention relates to a faucet, and more particularly to a quick installation mechanism for a countertop faucet.
    [0004] State of the art
    [0005] Nowadays, the installation mechanism of a faucet is mainly installed under a mounting surface. (The mounting surface is a counter to mount a kitchen sink, hand basin, etc.). Specifically, when a conventional lavatory or kitchen faucet is installed, the faucet is fixedly installed from below the counter using a C-shaped fastener or under counter nut. The clamping device of the conventional faucet mounting structure is arranged at the bottom of the faucet. Once installed, the top of the faucet above the counter needs to be fixed and the faucet is tightened or loosened by adjusting the fixing nut. Since the fixing nut is arranged under the counter, the space under the cabinet or the hand basin is reduced, the light is not good for the installation, and the installation requires a relatively large workload. If the faucet is loosely fixed after installation, it is very difficult, time-consuming and labor-intensive for the user to do the fixing and maintenance operations, resulting in low installation efficiency.
    [0006] DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
    [0007] The object of the present invention is to provide a quick installation mechanism for a faucet intended to be mounted on a counter.
    [0008] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
    [0009] A quick installation mechanism for a faucet includes an inner locking center portion, a securing center portion, and a base. An upper part of the central fixing part is a circular sleeve. A lower part of the central fixing part is composed of at least two elastic parts. The elastic pieces extend downward from an underside of the circular sleeve. An outer side wall of each of the elastic pieces has a boss. Internal threads are formed on inner walls of the circular sleeve and the elastic pieces. The base is a tubular element. A lower side wall of the base has at least two windows. The windows correspond in number to the elastic parts of the central fastening part. The internal central locking part is a tubular element. An external thread is formed on an outer wall of the inner locking core. An upper end of the inner center latch portion is fixedly connected to a valve body. A lower part of the inner central locking part is screwed into the central fixing part. The base is fitted onto the lower part of the central fixing part. The two or more elastic pieces of the central fixing part extend outside the two or more windows of the base, respectively.
    [0010] Preferably, a top of the internal central locking part comprises a fixing ring. A side wall of the fixing ring is provided with at least two screw holes for fixing the internal central part of the lock to the valve body with a fixing screw.
    [0011] Preferably, a top of the base has an annular flange, and a side wall of the flange has at least two notches.
    [0012] Preferably, the internal central locking part is formed in one piece with the body of the valve.
    [0013] Preferably, the quick install mechanism further includes a mounting screw, an engagement post, and a spring. A top of the inner locking center portion has upper and lower pawl wheels. The upper and lower pawl wheels are fixed on the valve body through the fixing screw, the engagement post and the spring.
    [0014] Preferably, the upper and lower pawl wheels on the top of the internal central locking part are arranged in a double layer. The upper and lower pawl wheels have upper and lower teeth in opposite directions. An upper recess is defined between each of the upper teeth. A lower recess is defined between each of the lower teeth. The upper teeth each cover a portion of the lower recess of the lower teeth to form an engagement groove for engaging the engagement post. The fixing screw is inserted through a fixing hole on the valve body and pressed against the spring and the engagement post in that order, so that the engagement post is locked in the engagement groove of the internal central locking part for securing the internal central locking part to the valve body.
    [0015] Preferably, the boss on the outer side wall of each of the elastic pieces has upper and lower inclined surfaces.
    [0016] After adopting the above solutions, since the installation mechanism of the invention is arranged on the countertop, there is no need for the operator to be in a confined space. Vision and light are good, workspace is large, visibility is important, and installation is quick and simple. Since the installation is done on the counter, the faucet installation is more stable and reliable without being affected by the narrow space. The installation position of the installer is comfortable, the installation is convenient and quick, and the efficiency is high. The invention has a simple structure and could be put into large-scale production.

    [0032] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION
    [0033] As shown in Figure 1 through Figure 6, a quick installation mechanism for a faucet according to a first embodiment of the present invention comprises an inner central locking part 1, a central fixing part 2, and a base 3.
    [0034] The upper part of the central fixing part 2 is a circular sleeve 21, and the lower part of the central fixing part 2 is composed of four elastic pieces 22. The elastic pieces 22 extend downward from the underside of the circular sleeve 21. The outer side wall of each elastic piece 22 is a boss 23 having upper and lower inclined surfaces, which represents a wedge-shaped configuration. Internal threads are on the inner walls of the circular sleeve 21 and the elastic pieces 22.
    [0035] The base 3 is a tubular element. The lower side wall of the base 3 has four windows 31. The number of windows 31 is equivalent to the number of elastic parts 22 of the central fixing part 2. The top of the base 3 has an annular collar 32. The wall side of the collar 32 has four notches 33.
    [0036] The inner central locking part 1 is a tubular element. An external thread is formed on the outer wall of the inner central locking part 1. The top of the inner central locking part 1 has a fixing ring 11.

The installation mechanism of the present invention is inserted from the countertop 20 into the faucet or sink mounting hole. The internal central locking part 1 is tightened clockwise. When the inner central locking part 1 is tightened, the central fixing part 2 is caused to move upwards. Since the outer wall of the central fixing part 2 is a wedge-shaped configuration, the more the inner locking central part 1 is screwed, the greater the gripping force of the wedge-shaped configuration of the central fixing part 2 on the counter 20. moreover, since the inner central locking part 1 is screwed on the lower parts of the four elastic pieces 22 of the central fixing part 2, there is no space for deformation inside the four pieces elastics 22, so that the base 3 is stably mounted on the counter 20. When disassembled, as long as the inner central locking part 1 is loosened counterclockwise towards the opening of the central fixing part 2, the four elastic pieces 22 of the central fixing part 2 can be elastically retracted, so that the installation mechanism of the present invention can be easily removed from the counter go 20.
    [0040] As shown in Figure 6, the lower part of the valve body 10 is provided with a limiting structure in the form of a trapezoidal groove 101. After the installation mechanism of the present invention is fixed, the valve body 10 is placed on the plane of the inner locking core 1, and then the fixing screw 4 passes through the screw hole 12 on the upper side wall of the inner locking core 1 to connect the valve body together 10 with the interlocking inner middle part 1. After interlocking, a decorative cover is slid to the bottom to cover the installation mechanism to complete the installation.
    [0041] As shown in Figure 7, a quick installation mechanism for a faucet according to a second embodiment of the present invention includes an inner locking core 1A, a securing core 2A, and a base 3A. The second embodiment is substantially similar to the first embodiment. The difference is that the internal central locking part 1A is formed in one piece with the valve body 10A.
