Abstract

A wall-mounted water-controlling valve assembly has a seat, a valve jacket, a valve, a fixing ring, and a covering cap. The seat is deposited inside a wall and has a tubular sleeve. The valve jacket is slidably mounted in the tubular sleeve of the seat. The valve is mounted in the valve jacket. The fixing ring is connected to the tubular sleeve by screwing. The covering cap is connected to the valve jacket and the fixing ring and has a front side and a rear side. The front side of the covering cap is connected to the valve jacket. The rear side of the covering cap is connected to the fixing ring. The valve is scalably in the tubular sleeve via the valve jacket to adjust a protruding length of the wall-mounted water-controlling valve assembly to remain at the same length relative to the wall.

Claims (67)

1. A wall-mounted water-controlling valve assembly comprising:

a seat having

a tubular sleeve being round and having

an outer end; and

an external surface; and

a chamber formed in the tubular sleeve and having an opening formed through the outer end of the tubular sleeve;

a valve jacket slidably mounted in the chamber of the seat and having

an open end; and

a valve room formed in the valve jacket;

a valve mounted in the valve room of the valve jacket and having a valve stem extending out of the valve jacket;

a fixing ring mounted on the external surface of the tubular sleeve by screwing; and

a covering cap connected to the valve jacket and the fixing ring and having

a front side connected to the open end of the valve jacket; and

a rear side connected to the fixing ring;

wherein the valve jacket further has

a limiting ring deposited at the open end of the valve jacket and pressed against the valve; and

a rotating ring rotatably deposited between the limiting ring and the valve and having a front end extending out of the limiting ring and connected to the covering cap.

2. The wall-mounted water-controlling valve assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein

the rotating ring has

an external surface;

an outer periphery;

an annular groove formed on the external surface of the rotating ring adjacent to the front end of the rotating ring; and

an engaging mouth formed through the outer periphery of the rotating ring and communicating with the annular groove; and

the covering cap has an engaging block deposited on the front side of the covering cap to engage with the annular groove of the rotating ring via the engaging mouth.

3. The wall-mounted water-controlling valve assembly as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the limiting ring is connected to the open end of the valve jacket by screwing.

4. The wall-mounted water-controlling valve assembly as claimed in claim 3 , wherein

the rotating ring has a step edge formed on the external surface of the rotating ring adjacent to the annular groove; and

the limiting ring has

an internal surface; and

a positioning flange formed on and protruding inwardly from the internal surface of the limiting ring and pressed against the step edge of the rotating ring.

5. A wall-mounted water-controlling valve assembly comprising:

a seat having

a tubular sleeve being round and having

an outer end; and

an external surface; and

a chamber formed in the tubular sleeve and having an opening formed through the outer end of the tubular sleeve, the seat further having a linking base and the tubular sleeve being connected to the linking base by screwing and has an internal surface; and

a limiting flange formed on and protruding from the internal surface of the tubular sleeve at the outer end of the tubular sleeve; and

a valve jacket slidably mounted in the chamber of the seat and having an open end; and

a valve room formed in the valve jacket, the valve jacket further having

an external surface;

a closed end; and

an engaging flange deposited on the closed end of the valve jacket, extending out of the external surface of the valve jacket, and selectively engaging with the limiting flange of the tubular sleeve; and

a valve mounted in the valve room of the valve jacket and having a valve stem extending out of the valve jacket;

a fixing ring mounted on the external surface of the tubular sleeve by screwing; and

a covering cap connected to the valve jacket and the fixing ring and having

a front side connected to the open end of the valve jacket; and

a rear side connected to the fixing ring.

6. The wall-mounted water-controlling valve assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the rear side of the covering cap is connected to the fixing ring by screwing.

7. The wall-mounted water-controlling valve assembly as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the rear side of the covering cap is connected to the fixing ring by screwing.

8. The wall-mounted water-controlling valve assembly as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the rear side of the covering cap is connected to the fixing ring by screwing.

9. The wall-mounted water-controlling valve assembly as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the rear side of the covering cap is connected to the fixing ring by screwing.

10. The wall-mounted water-controlling valve assembly as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the rear side of the covering cap is connected to the fixing ring by screwing.

11. The wall-mounted water-controlling valve assembly as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the fixing ring has
