The present invention relates to a water valve, and more particularly to a water valve capable of separately providing four water outputs.
In order to avoid plants drying up and dying due to lack of water, watering routine is a very frequent and important gardening work. Usually the plants are planted in a wide range or a certain distance from the water source, therefore, the water hose extension is employed and connected to the water via a connector, then the water hose is connected to the sprinkler device. However, it is impossible to achieve the effect of diverting and separately controlling the opening and closing for multiple water hose or sprinkler device. Therefore, when there are many places that need to be watered, it is necessary to find more water sources or to water different places alternatively, which is not convenient in use.
Therefore, it is desirable to provide a faucet aerator capable to mitigate and/or obviate the aforementioned problems.
An objective of present invention is to provide a water valve, which is capable of improving the above-mention problems.
In order to achieve the above mentioned objective, a water valve has a horizontal tubular main body and two control valves.
The main body has an inlet opening with an exit opening at each of two sides, the main body is provided with two internal ring lips for defining an intake channel sandwiched by two exiting channels, the two exiting channels respectively configured to be connected to the two control valves, and the exit openings provided with an intake fitting extending from the main body. Each control valve has a fixed valve tube secured in the respective exiting channel, the fixed valve tube has a through hole facing the exit opening, the fixed valve tube is inserted with a moveable axis, the moveable axis is hollow and has one open end and a closed end, and a handle is connected to the moveable axis extending from the fixed valve tube and the closed end of the main body.
Other objects, advantages, and novel features of invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description when taken in conjunction with the companying drawings.
First, please refer to
Moreover, the main body 10, the handle 23, the intake fitting 30 and the outlet fitting 300 are all made of metal.
Furthermore, the main body 10, the intake fitting 30 and the outlet fitting 300 are made from copper pipe or a copper ingot.
In addition, the ring lip 13 of the main body 10 is further provided with a positioning aperture 131, and the fixed valve tube 21 further has an extending positioning foot 212 configured for insertion into the positioning aperture 131.
Moreover, the fixed valve tube 21 and the moveable axis 22 are engaged with a corresponding positioning rib and positioning groove for secure engagement.
Additionally, the fixed valve tube 21 and the moveable axis 22 both are respectively jacketed with a sealing ring.
Moreover, a corresponding face of the fixed valve tube 21 and a corresponding face of the handle 23 respectively have a positioning flange 213 and a positioning pin 231.
Furthermore, the intake fitting 30 and the outlet fitting 300 are screwed together for assembly.
Moreover, the outlet fitting 300 is further provided with an inner leak-proof pad 31.
In addition, the intake fitting 30 and the outlet fitting 300 is further provided with an outer leak-proof pad 32.
In actual use, the intake fitting 30 is connected to a water source through a water host, and the outlet fitting 300 is connected to the water sprinkler device through the water host, so that the same water source can be used for two sprinklers at different locations at the same time. The separate or simultaneous operation of the two handles 23 also enables two control valves 20 to be opened simultaneously (as shown in
Although the present invention has been explained in relation to its preferred embodiment, it is to be understood that many other possible modifications and variations can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of invention as hereinafter claimed.
