ABSTRACT:
A self-cleaning knob water faucet that includes a hollow water faucet housing, a water valve assembly, a knob, and water showering apparatus. The hollow water faucet body has an interior space and a spout from which water can exit. The water valve assembly is disposed in the hollow water faucet housing and has a distal end that extends outwardly therefrom. The water valve further has a closed position in which water does not exit the spout of the hollow water faucet body and an open position in which water exits the spout of the hollow water faucet body. The knob is disposed on the distal end of the water valve and is rotatable by a hand of user for moving the water valve assembly through the closed position of the water valve assembly and the open position of the water valve assembly. And, the water showering apparatus showers water on the knob when the water valve assembly is in the open position of the water valve assembly, so that any contamination deposited on the knob when the knob is rotated by the hand of the user is removed.
