FAUCET VALVE CARTRIDGE

摘要

Valve cartridges for a faucet assembly are described where the valve cartridge has a body with at least one side opening transversely through the body from the interior surface to the exterior surface and a spindle in the passage of the body. A movable disk has an arcuate side wall portion configured to fit within the passage of the body in rotatable facing relationship with the interior surface of the body and an inwardly extending side wall portion defining at least one fluid receiving area for fluid flow out of the side opening of the body. A stationary disk having at least one opening therethrough allows passage of fluid from an inlet opening of the body through the side opening of the body when aligned with the fluid receiving area in the movable disk. A sealing ring stabilizes the stationary disk and movable disk within the passage of the body.
