[0031] Reference Figure 1The quick-install faucet mounting seat includes a mounting seat 110, a locking device, and a water inlet pipe 130. Generally, before installing the faucet, a mounting hole is reserved on the countertop. For the sake of aesthetics, most of the fixing methods of this type of faucet place the fixing device under the countertop, and install part of the water inlet pipe 130 under the countertop, and then use screws 250 to fix the faucet mounting seat 110 under the countertop. In this embodiment, a part of the water inlet pipe 130 is also installed under the countertop, and the mounting seat 110 and the faucet body 100 are installed above the countertop. A locking device is provided in the mounting seat 110, and the mounting seat 110 can be fixedly installed on the mounting hole of the countertop by using the locking device. During installation, the installation time of workers can be reduced, their labor intensity can be reduced, and there is no need to bend over, while the installation efficiency is improved.

[0032] Specifically, refer to Figures 2 to 5 The locking device is arranged below the faucet body 100, and the locking device is provided with a locking lever. When the locking device is installed, it passes through the mounting hole arranged in the countertop, and the locking lever is provided with a first end face 220 and a second end face 230. A rotating shaft 210 is also arranged in the middle of the locking lever. The thinner end of the locking lever is the first end face 220, and the thicker end is the second end face 230. The first end face 220 extends out above the countertop, and a locking thread is arranged on the first end face 220, and an anti-slip arrangement is arranged on the second end face 230. The second end face 230 abuts against the hole wall of the countertop mounting hole. When the locking lever is adjusted, under the restriction of the rotating shaft 210, the first end face 220 and the second end face 230 will produce a lever-like movement, and when the second end face 230 presses the mounting hole, the faucet is installed.

[0033] The locking device is arranged inside the mounting seat 110, and the locking device includes a locking lever and a cushion block 120. The side wall of the cushion block 120 is provided with a notch. The locking lever passes through the mounting hole of the countertop. The first end face 220 of the locking lever extends out above the countertop. The side wall of the mounting seat 110 is provided with an opening, and a trigger device 200 is provided at the opening. The trigger device and the first end face 220 correspond to each other. The trigger device 200 can adjust the relative position of the first end face 220 and the second end face 230. When the trigger device 200 is used to lock the first end face 220, the second end face 230 moves toward the inner wall of the mounting hole under the action of the rotating shaft 210. Since the cushion block 120 is provided with a notch, the second end face 230 can be rotated at a certain angle under the limit of the notch, thereby pressing the inner wall of the mounting hole. The faucet body 100 is fixed together with the mounting seat 110, and the mounting seat 110 is fixed on the mounting hole to achieve the purpose of fixing the faucet in the mounting hole.

[0034] In some embodiments, the opening of the mounting seat 110 is provided with a thread, and the trigger device 200 can be a screw locking device. The screw locking device is installed in the opening. By operating the screw locking device, under the action of the screw locking device, the mounting seat 110, and the rotating shaft 210, the second end face 230 is lifted, so that the second end face 230 presses the mounting hole, and the installation and fixation of the mounting seat are completed. The screw locking device can be a set screw or a self-tapping screw. It only needs to be able to adapt to the thread of the opening and press the first end face 220. The type of the screw locking device is not limited here. In some embodiments, the second end face 230 is provided with an anti-skid pattern, and the anti-skid pattern can increase the friction between the second end face 230 and the mounting hole, so that the installation of the faucet is more stable. It can be imagined that since some mounting holes are cylindrical, the shape of the second end face 230 can be set to a semicircular shape, and the semicircular second end face 230 can better fit the mounting hole, which can further increase the friction between the second end face 230 and the mounting hole. In some embodiments, an anti-skid pad is further disposed on the second end surface 230 . The anti-skid pad may be made of rubber material. The rubber anti-skid pad is wear-resistant and can provide sufficient friction.
