摘要

A universal faucet handle structure has: a handle body having an assembling portion with a through aperture, the through aperture having a non-circular cross-sectional shape, the through aperture providing a combining member; the assembling portion having an assembling slot adjacent to the through aperture, the assembling slot having a non-circular cross-sectional shape; and a joint sleeve having two connecting ends, both of the connecting ends capable of being connected to the assembling slot of the handle body; each connecting end having an engaging slot; the engaging slot having a non-circular cross-sectional shape; the engaging slot having an axial hole, and each connecting end further having an engaging groove. With the above-mentioned embodiment, following benefit can be obtained: since the assembling slot of the handle body is connected to the joint sleeve, the handle can be assembled onto different types of the faucet shafts.

主权项

1. A universal faucet handle structure comprising:
a handle body having an assembling portion with a through aperture, the through aperture having sidewalls defining a non-circular cross-sectional shape, the through aperture accepting a combining member, the assembling portion having an assembling groove defined by lateral sidewalls concentric with an end portion of the sidewalls of the through aperture, the assembling groove having a non-circular cross-sectional shape; and a joint sleeve having an inner surface, an outer surface and two connecting ends, both of the connecting ends shaped for mating engagement with the assembling groove of the handle body, the inner surface is formed by a first engaging portion at one of the connecting ends, a second engaging portion at the other of the connecting ends, and an axial hole there between, the first engaging portion having a non-circular cross-sectional shape, the second engaging portion having a different non-circular cross-sectional shape, and the axial hole has a diameter smaller than either of the cross sectional shapes of the first and second engaging portions, wherein the second engaging portion includes a plurality of positioning teeth and a plurality of positioning grooves, wherein the first and second engaging portions are configured to engage control stems of different shapes.
