Abstract (en)
A barrel faucet anchoring structure includes a barrel faucet body (20) formed at a uniform diameter. The faucet body (20) has a lower section holding an inner sleeve (22) which has a lower end fastened by an anchor member (23) by screwing to allow the faucet body to hold, in this order, a water receiving dock (24), a water channeling dock (25) and a water control valve (26). The inner sleeve (22) has an upper opening end with retaining notches (221) formed thereon to be wedged in by retaining lugs (241) formed on the water receiving dock (24). The water channeling dock (25) opposes a spout (21) coupled externally on the faucet body (20). By providing the separated inner sleeve (22) anchored by the anchor member (23) at the lower end of the faucet body (20) to hold the water receiving dock (24), water channeling dock (25) and water control valve (26), no additional fabrication processes are needed and no material waste occurs. Thus the cost and product weight can be reduced to make the barrel faucet more economic effective.
