Faucets are used when decorating bathrooms and kitchens. Compared with large pieces of home decoration, such as ceramic tiles and cabinets, faucets are a small piece, which can not be ignored, In family decoration, faucet is an indispensable and important role. It is one of the important items in every family. Our daily drinking water, washing and cooking are inseparable from the faucet. If we want to choose a suitable faucet for our bathroom, we must first understand the faucet. Let’s introduce the faucet to you.
First look at the control part: the internal structure of the faucet is very precise, which is mainly composed of the body, water separator and valve core. Outwardly, it is the faucet handle and related connection parts we often use. For most ordinary faucets, the main function of the control part is to adjust the outlet water size and water temperature. Of course, the control part of some faucets is relatively complex, such as shower faucets. In addition to adjusting the water size and temperature, the control part also has another part, It is the water separator. The function of the water separator is to send water to different water outlet terminals. There is also the digital control panel appeared in recent years, which adjusts the outlet water size, outlet water temperature and memory water temperature through the touch panel.
For most faucets, the core component of the control part is the valve core. The valve core is known as the heart of the faucet, which determines the quality of the faucet. The valve core is the heart of the faucet. The service life of the faucet mainly depends on the quality of the valve core. In the process of rotation, the damping is moderate, so the quality of the valve core is good. The main water inlet valve for household use and the small faucet for a few yuan bought by the hardware store have the same valve core. There is a water sealing rubber in it. By pulling up and pressing the rubber, they can boil and close the water. The valve core is not durable, and the small faucet often leaks in a few months. The main reason is that the rubber in the valve core is loose or worn. Now the mature valve core on the market is sealed by ceramic chips. The principle of sealing water with ceramic sheet is as follows. Look at the single cooling valve core in the figure above, ceramic sheet a and ceramic sheet B are closely pasted together, and then the two ceramics play the role of opening, adjusting and closing through dislocation, as well as the principle of cold and hot water valve core. The ceramic water sealing valve core has good sealing performance and is very durable. It feels good and easy to adjust when adjusting. At present, most faucets on the market are equipped with ceramic water sealing valve core.
When purchasing a faucet, because the valve core can not be seen, you should hold the handle, open the handle to the maximum, then close it, and then open it. If it is a cold and hot water valve core, you can first twist it to the far left, and then twist it to the far right. Feel the water sealing feel of the valve core through multiple switches and adjustments. If it is smooth in the process of adjustment The valve core that feels compact is better. If there is a jam in the adjustment process, or the valve core that feels uneven tightness is generally poor. Some valve elements have gears, which should be treated differently.
