Faucet having the shape of a standard desk phone

A faucet is shaped like a rotary dial phone and is formed of a main body, a water-controlling bolt, a water valve, a control plate, and a spray head. The main body is provided with a first water outlet which is in communication with one end of the spray head, and a second water outlet which is in communication with the first water outlet via a channel. The water-controlling bolt is movably positioned in a hole of the main body such that the water-controlling bolt can be caused to obstruct the first water outlet or the channel. The water valve is secured in place in a receiving slot of the main body and is provided with a connection rod to which the control plate is rotatably connected. The spray head is removably positioned on the water-controlling bolt such that the spray head is connected at one end to a hose which is in turn connected at one end to the water controlling bolt.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
 1. Field of the Invention
 The present invention relates generally to a faucet, and more particularly
 to a faucet which is shaped like a standard desk phone.
 2. Description of Related Art
 The conventional faucets are rather limited in design of the shape in view
 of the limitation in configuration of water controlling parts of the
 faucets. In order to design a faucet having an attractive profile, the
 structural configuration of the faucet must be changed.
 BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
 The primary objective of the present invention is to provide a faucet which
 is shaped like a standard desk phone and is provided with means for easy
 switching of hot water and cold water.
 The features and the advantages of the present invention will be readily
 understood and appreciated upon a thoughtful deliberation of the following
 detailed description of a preferred embodiment of the present invention
 with reference to the accompanying drawings.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
 As shown in all drawings provided herewith, a faucet embodied in the
 present invention comprises a main body 10, a water-controlling bolt 30, a
 valve 40, and a spray head 60.
 The main body 10 corresponds to the phone base of a standard desk phone and
 is provided in the top with a support frame 11 which is in turn provided
 in the center with a through hole 12. The main body 10 is provided in the
 bottom with a first water outlet 13 and a second water outlet 15. The
 first water outlet 13 is in communication with the through hole 12 of the
 support frame 11 and is connected to the second water outlet 15 by a
 channel 14. The main body 10 is further provided in the rear side with two
 connectors 16 for connecting respectively to a cold water pipe and a hot
 water pipe. The two connectors 16 are in communication with the interior
 of the main body 10 via a cold water duct 17 and a hot water duct 18. The
 main body 10 is further provided with a receiving slot 19 which is
 provided in the bottom with a cold water inlet 20, a hot water inlet 21,
 and a guide port 22. The cold water inlet 20 is in communication with the
 cold water duct 17. The hot water inlet 21 is in communication with the
 hot water duct 18. The guide port 22 is in communication with the first
 water outlet 13 via a passageway 23.
 The water-controlling bolt 30 is received in the through hole 12 of the
 main body 10 such that the bottom end of the water-controlling bolt 30 is
 capable of obstructing the first water outlet 13 or the channel 14.
 The valve 40 is positioned in the receiving slot 19 of the main body 10
 such that the valve 40 is secured in place by a nut 41 in conjunction with
 a fitting member 42. The nut 41 has outer threads which are engaged with
 inner threads of the receiving slot 19 of the main body 10. The valve 40
 has a connection rod which juts out of the main body 10 to connect a
 control plate 50 which is shaped like the rotary dial of a standard desk
 phone.
 The spray head 60 is similar in shape to a handset of the standard desk
 phone and is rested on the support frame 11 of the main body 10. The spray
 head 60 is connected at one end thereof with a hose 61 via which the spray
 head 60 is in communication with the first water outlet 13 of the main
 body 10.
 In operation, the spray head 60 is lifted such that the water-controlling
 bolt 30 is relieved of the force exerted thereon, thereby opening the
 first water outlet 13. The switching of cold water and hot water is
 controlled by dialing the control plate 50. The cold water and the hot
 water are let out of the other end of the spray head 60 via the cold water
 duct 17, the hot water duct 18, the cold water inlet 20, the hot water
 inlet 21, the guide port 22, the passageway 23, and the hose 61. As the
 spray head 60 is put back to rest on the support frame 11 such that the
 spray head 60 forces the water-controlling bolt 30 to move downward to
 obstruct the first water outlet 13, the water is forced to flow out of the
 second water outlet 15 via the channel 14, thereby resulting in the
 temporary cessation of water supply to the spray head 60. It is therefore
 readily apparent that the faucet of the present invention can be easily
 operated.
 The preferred embodiment of the present invention described above is to be
 regarded in all respect as being merely illustrative and not restrictive.
 Accordingly, the present invention may be embodied in other specific forms
 without deviating from the spirit thereof. The present invention is
 therefore to be limited only by the scope of the following appended claim.
