<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To optimize the operability and switchability by connecting the end part of a lever as an operation member to the valve member of a selector arranged on the upper stream of a discharge mouthpiece, pivotally supporting it on a housing part by a rotating shaft, and setting the sectional dimension of the housing from which a part of the lever area is protruded so as to be capable of being held by a single hand. SOLUTION: A bottom plate 3 having a supply pipe 31 is arranged within a housing 1, and one leg 40 of a plastic arch lever 4 is pivotally fixed to a bearing 30 provided on the circumference of the bottom plate 3, and the other leg 41 is connected to a selector valve 2. In the stop position of a snap projection 220 where the selector valve 2 is fixed to the bottom plate 3, the fitting pipe 221 of a housing 22 is closely engaged with the supply pipe 31 to guide cold and hot waters regulated in mixing ratio to a discharge mouthpiece 51 or a foam flow forming device 52 according to the position of a valve member 20. The area of a lever 4 is partially protruded from the housing 1 enclosing a faucet metal fitting as an operating grip, and the sectional dimension of the housing 1 having the operating grip is set so that a user can hold it by a single hand.</p> |
