Patent number: 9644353Abstract: A faucet with pipe-in-pipe structure may include a control valve and a valve shell, and a rotating base, a sliding valve piece, and a fixing valve piece are sequentially formed inside the valve shell. The rotating base has a valve rod outwardly sticking out of the valve shell to connect to a handle. The valve rod operated by a handle can rotate the rotating base with the sliding valve piece, so that relative positions between the sliding valve piece and the fixing valve piece are controlled to operate the on/off operation of the faucet, the mixing ratios of hot water and cold water, and the amount of water flow. A valve base connected to a lower end of the valve shell is configured to prevent the fixing valve piece, the sliding valve piece and the rotating base from falling out of the valve shell.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2015Date of Patent: May 9, 2017Assignee: Hain Yo Enterprises Co.

Patent number: 8869816Abstract: A mixed water control valve for a faucet includes a valve housing, a control unit, and a balance unit. The valve housing has a mounting seat which has a receiving chamber and two water inlet holes. The balance unit includes a fixed sleeve secured in the receiving chamber, a pressure regulating sleeve movably mounted in the fixed sleeve, a balance baffle mounted in the pressure regulating sleeve, and two elastic members each mounted in the pressure regulating sleeve and each biased between the balance baffle and the mounting seat. Thus, the balance baffle is compressed between the elastic members which provide a buffering force to counteract a larger pressure applied on the balance baffle, so that the pressure regulating sleeve is moved smoothly and stably without producing resonant noise in the faucet.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 2010Date of Patent: October 28, 2014Assignee: HAIN YO Enterprise Co.
