Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of faucet installation and connection structures, and specifically to a faucet installation and connection structure. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of water use, people have gradually moved from traditional well-drilling to using standardized industrially collected water, which is then piped to each household. Household water typically uses faucets at pipe connections, and a water trough is usually installed in the home for washing dishes and vegetables, with a hole drilled in the trough for the faucet. However, because the size and thickness of the water troughs used by each household are inconsistent, faucet installation is very inconvenient.

[0003] Most existing faucets have a single nut at the bottom, which connects directly to the water pipe. However, this method doesn't guarantee that a water tank can be installed in the home, as pipes generally cannot be easily bent or lengthened, making faucet installation very inconvenient. Some existing faucets have two nuts, one connecting to the water pipe and the other to the faucet itself. However, because of the water tank during installation, one person cannot tighten the nuts simultaneously; two people are needed, and slippage is common. Furthermore, this type of installation is difficult to disassemble after completion. If rust or damage occurs, it can only be removed by force, potentially damaging both the faucet and the water tank, making future repairs very difficult.

[0004] Furthermore, household natural gas systems typically include both cold and hot water, and some households also add additional filtration devices to purify the water, making faucet installation on the sink even more difficult. Clearly, existing faucet installation and connection structures are no longer sufficient to meet practical needs, necessitating the design of a connection mechanism that can solve the aforementioned problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This invention provides a faucet installation and connection structure that solves the problems of inconvenient operation of connecting faucets and water pipes, difficult subsequent maintenance, and inability to adapt to diverse water usage needs.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of the present invention is: a faucet installation and connection structure, including a main connecting pipe, a fixing component fixedly connected to the upper end of the main connecting pipe, a faucet base for connecting the faucet on the fixing component, the fixing component and the faucet base matching and fixedly connected to each other, an adjusting component for fixing it to a water tank and being adjustable up and down at the lower end of the main connecting pipe, and water pipes and water pipe positions matching each other in both the main connecting pipe and the adjusting component, the water pipe being disposed in the water pipe position, and the water pipe and the faucet base being fixedly connected to each other.

[0009] Preferably, the upper adjusting component is a screw, the adjusting fixing position is a threaded hole with threads, and the upper adjusting component and the adjusting fixing position are matched with each other.

[0010] Preferably, the lower end fixing member is annular in shape, and the water pipe and the water pipe are disposed inside the lower end fixing member.

[0011] Preferably, a sealing ring for preventing water leakage is provided above the lower end fixing member.

[0012] Preferably, the fixing component includes a support pipe and a support fixing member, the support pipe is fixedly connected to the faucet base, and the support pipe is fixedly connected to the main connecting pipe through the support fixing member.

[0013] Preferably, a limiting component is provided on the main connecting pipe, and the bearing fastener is fixedly connected to the main connecting pipe through the limiting component.

[0014] Preferably, the limiting component includes a limiting groove and a limiting hole. The limiting groove is disposed around the upper end of the main connecting pipe, and the limiting hole is disposed in the limiting groove and penetrates the main connecting pipe. The size of the bearing fastener is smaller than the limiting hole and larger than the limiting groove. After the bearing fastener passes through the limiting hole, one end of the bearing fastener is fixed in the limiting groove, and the other end of the bearing fastener is fixedly connected to the bearing pipe.

[0015] Preferably, the bearing fastener includes a bearing screw and a fixing nut, and the bearing tube is provided with a bearing hole that matches the bearing screw. The main connecting tube is fixedly connected to the bearing tube through the bearing screw and the fixing nut.

[0016] Preferably, the size of the bearing screw is smaller than the limiting hole, and the size of the bearing screw is larger than the limiting groove. After the bearing screw passes through the limiting hole, one end of the bearing screw is fixed in the limiting groove, and the other end of the bearing screw is fixedly connected to the bearing tube through the matching bearing hole and the fixing nut.

[0017] Preferably, a gasket is provided between the lower end of the main connecting pipe, the bearing pipe and the faucet base.

[0018] Preferably, secondary fixing components are provided on both the main connecting pipe and the fixing component, and the main connecting pipe and the adjusting component, and the fixing component and the faucet base are connected more securely through the secondary fixing components.

[0019] Preferably, the secondary fixing component is a screw.

[0020] Preferably, a protective outer shell with a fixed connection is provided on the outside of the main connecting pipe.

[0021] Preferably, the dimension of one end of the water pipe is larger than that of the water pipe position.

[0022] The beneficial effects achieved by the present invention are as follows: (1) Compared with the traditional direct connection structure of faucets, the present invention has a completely independent connection structure. On the one hand, it can connect to faucets, and on the other hand, it can be used in various water tanks. Moreover, the installation and operation are convenient and can be completed by one person. (2) Compared with the traditional faucet, the present invention has a main connecting pipe. A fixing component is provided at the upper end of the main connecting pipe. A faucet base for connecting the faucet is provided on the fixing component. The fixing component and the faucet base are matched and fixedly connected. An adjustment component is provided at the lower end of the main connecting pipe for fixing it on the water tank and can be adjusted up and down. Water pipes and water pipe positions are provided in the main connecting pipe and the adjustment component for matching each other. The water pipe is set in the water pipe position. The water pipe and the faucet base are fixedly connected to each other. In practical use, mounting holes are typically provided on one bottom surface of the water tank. The water pipe is first passed through the water pipe position on the adjusting component, then through the mounting hole in the water tank, and then through the water pipe position on the main connecting pipe. At this point, the bottom surface of the water tank and the main connecting pipe can be fixedly connected by the adjusting component. Because a fixing component is provided at the upper end of the main connecting pipe, and a matching faucet base is installed on the fixing component, the faucet and faucet base match each other in actual use, and the faucet base and fixing component match and are fixedly connected. Therefore, according to actual needs, the faucet base and fixing component can be designed with mutually cooperating, snap-fit, or butt-jointing structures for a stable connection. Since the faucet is connected to the faucet base, the stable structure of the faucet base and fixing component also ensures the stability of the faucet, solving the problem of instability after faucet installation in existing methods. Meanwhile, since water tanks generally have depth, and the depth of water tanks in each household is not necessarily the same, the adjustment component can be adjusted according to the thickness of the water tank during actual use. By adjusting the adjustment component, the main connecting pipe and the adjustment component can be fixedly connected to adapt to water tanks of different depths, and no changes need to be made to the existing structure of the water tank. Therefore, it also solves the problem that the faucet installation in the prior art cannot adapt to diverse needs. Moreover, the above-mentioned structure of setting the main connecting pipe, the fixing component, and the adjustment component is pioneering. There was no similar design before. By setting the structure of the main connecting pipe, the fixing component, and the adjustment component, one person can operate without two people, which greatly saves labor costs. Moreover, it is very convenient to install. (3) The present invention is provided with an adjustment component, including a matching upper adjustment part and a lower fixing part. The main connecting pipe and the lower fixing part are provided with adjustment fixing positions that match the upper adjustment part. The main connecting pipe is fixedly connected to the water tank through the matching upper adjustment part, adjustment fixing position and lower fixing part and can be adjusted up and down.(4) The present invention has a limiting component on the main connecting pipe, and the bearing fixing member is fixedly connected to the main connecting pipe through the limiting component; the limiting component includes a limiting groove and a limiting hole, the limiting groove is set around the upper end of the main connecting pipe, the limiting hole is set in the limiting groove, and the limiting hole penetrates the main connecting pipe; the size of the bearing fixing member is smaller than the limiting hole, and the size of the bearing fixing member is larger than the limiting groove. After the bearing fixing member passes through the limiting hole, one end of the bearing fixing member is fixed in the limiting groove, and the other end of the bearing fixing member is fixedly connected to the bearing pipe. This design is very ingenious, because by setting the limiting component and setting it as a limiting groove and a limiting hole, the bearing fixing member can be fixedly connected to the main connecting pipe, and can be hidden above the main connecting pipe. On the one hand, it saves space, and on the other hand, it is very convenient to install. It can be installed simply by passing the bearing fixing member through the limiting hole, and the bearing fixing member and the main connecting pipe can be fixedly connected. (5) The present invention has gaskets at the lower end of the main connecting pipe, between the bearing pipe and the faucet base. This design provides a stable connection and facilitates repair and replacement if the relevant structure is damaged. (6) The invention has secondary fixing parts on both the main connecting pipe and the fixing component. The main connecting pipe and the adjusting component, the fixing component and the faucet base are connected more firmly through the secondary fixing parts. (7) The size of one end of the water pipe is larger than the water pipe position. This design is for the purpose of facilitating installation. In actual use, when installing manually, one only needs to pull one end of the water pipe upwards. Because the other end of the water pipe is larger than the water pipe position, the adjusting component can be driven through the water pipe, which can drive the lower fixing part. Then, the main connecting pipe and the lower fixing part are fixed to the upper and lower sides of the water tank through the upper adjusting part. At this time, one person can complete the operation, which is convenient and quick. Attached Figure Description

[0030] To facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. Specifically:

[0031] Example 1:

[0032] like Figure 1-5As shown, the faucet installation and connection structure includes a main connecting pipe 1, a fixing component 2 for fixed connection at the upper end of the main connecting pipe 1, a faucet base 3 for connecting the faucet on the fixing component 2, the fixing component 2 and the faucet base 3 are matched and fixedly connected to each other, and an adjusting component 4 for fixing it to the water tank and being adjustable up and down at the lower end of the main connecting pipe 1. A water pipe 5 and a water pipe position 6 for matching each other are provided in both the main connecting pipe 1 and the adjusting component 4. The water pipe 5 is set in the water pipe position 6, and the water pipe 5 and the faucet base 3 are fixedly connected to each other. In this embodiment, during actual use, mounting holes are generally provided on the bottom surface 12 of the water tank. The water pipe is first passed through the water pipe position on the adjusting component, then through the mounting hole of the water tank, and then through the water pipe position on the main connecting pipe. At this time, the bottom surface of the water tank and the main connecting pipe can be fixedly connected by the adjusting component. Because a fixing component 2 is provided at the upper end of the main connecting pipe 1, and a matching faucet base is provided on the fixing component, the faucet and faucet base match each other during actual use, and the faucet base and fixing component match and are fixedly connected. Therefore, according to actual needs, the faucet base and fixing component can be set with a mutually cooperating, snap-fit, or butt-joining stable connection structure. Because the faucet is connected to the faucet base, the stability of the faucet can also be ensured by setting a mutually cooperating stable structure between the faucet base and the fixing component, thus solving the problem of unstable faucet installation in the existing method. Meanwhile, since water tanks generally have depth, and the depth of water tanks varies from household to household, the adjustment component can be adjusted according to the actual thickness of the water tank during use. This allows the main connecting pipe and the adjustment component, once fixedly connected, to adapt to water tanks of different depths without altering any existing tank structure. Therefore, it solves the problem of existing faucet installations being unable to adapt to diverse needs. Furthermore, the aforementioned structure of the main connecting pipe, fixing component, and adjustment component is pioneering; no similar design existed before. This structure allows for operation by one person, eliminating the need for two, significantly saving labor costs, and making installation extremely convenient.

[0033] Specifically, the adjustment component 4 includes a matching upper adjustment member 41 and a lower fixing member 42. Both the main connecting pipe 1 and the lower fixing member 42 are provided with adjustment and fixing positions 43 that match the upper adjustment member 41. The main connecting pipe 1 is fixedly connected to the water tank through the matching upper adjustment member 41, adjustment and fixing positions 43, and lower fixing member 42, and can be adjusted vertically. In this embodiment, as... Figure 2 , 3As shown in Figure 5, the upper adjusting component 41 is a screw, and the adjusting fixing position 43 is a threaded hole that matches the thread of the upper adjusting component 41. After the upper adjusting component is connected to the adjusting fixing position via the thread, the tail end of the upper adjusting component and the lower fixing component are fixedly connected. Because the screw can be relatively long, the upper adjusting component can be adapted to water tanks of different depths by adjusting the screw length. Thus, it can be ensured that after the main connecting pipe 1 is fixedly connected to the water tank through the matching upper adjusting component 41 and lower fixing component 42, it can adapt to water tanks of different depths without changing any existing structure of the water tank. Of course, the upper adjusting component, adjusting fixing position, and lower fixing component do not necessarily have to be threaded structures; they can also be other structures with similar functions.

[0034] Specifically, the lower fixing member 42 is annular in shape, and the water pipe 5 and water pipe position 6 are disposed inside the lower fixing member 42. A sealing ring 11 for preventing water leakage is provided above the lower fixing member 42. In this embodiment, a sealing ring 11 for preventing water leakage is provided above the lower fixing member because there may be a certain gap after the water tank and the lower fixing member are directly connected. In order to prevent water leakage, a sealing ring can be added. Of course, if the connection is tight enough, this can be omitted.

[0035] Specifically, the fixing component 2 includes a support pipe 21 and a support fixing member 22. The support pipe 21 is fixedly connected to the faucet base 3, and the support pipe 21 is fixedly connected to the main connecting pipe 1 through the support fixing member 22. In this embodiment, the fixing component is set as a support pipe 21 and a support fixing member 22, with the support pipe 21 fixedly connected to the faucet base 3 and the support pipe 21 fixedly connected to the main connecting pipe 1 through the support fixing member 22. Of course, this is not the only option; other structural designs that serve the same or similar functions can also be used.

[0036] Specifically, a limiting component 7 is provided on the main connecting pipe 1, and the supporting fastener 22 is fixedly connected to the main connecting pipe 1 through the limiting component 7. In this embodiment, the limiting component 7 is provided on the main connecting pipe 1, and the supporting fastener 22 is fixedly connected to the main connecting pipe 1 through the limiting component 7. The limiting component 7 includes a limiting groove 71 and a limiting hole 72. The limiting groove 71 is arranged around the upper end of the main connecting pipe 1, and the limiting hole 72 is arranged in the limiting groove 71 and penetrates the main connecting pipe 1. The size of the supporting fastener 22 is smaller than that of the limiting hole 72 and larger than that of the limiting groove 71. After the supporting fastener 22 passes through the limiting hole 72, one end of the supporting fastener 22 is fixed in the limiting groove 71, and the other end of the supporting fastener 22 is fixedly connected to the supporting pipe 21. Of course, the limiting component is not limited to this arrangement and can also be other structural designs that play the same or similar roles. This embodiment is ingeniously designed. By setting a limiting component and designing it as a limiting groove and a limiting hole, the bearing fastener can be fixedly connected to the main connecting pipe. Moreover, it can be hidden above the main connecting pipe, which saves space on the one hand and is very convenient to install on the other hand. It can be installed simply by passing the bearing fastener through the limiting hole, and the bearing fastener and the main connecting pipe can be fixedly connected.

[0037] Specifically, the bearing fastener 22 includes a bearing screw 221 and a fixing nut 222. A bearing hole 223 matching the bearing screw 221 is provided on the bearing tube 21. The main connecting tube 1 is fixedly connected to the bearing tube 21 via the bearing screw 221 and the fixing nut 222. In this embodiment, the bearing fastener is configured as a bearing screw 221 and a fixing nut 222. A bearing hole 223 matching the bearing screw 221 is provided on the bearing tube 21. The main connecting tube 1 is fixedly connected to the bearing tube 21 via the bearing screw 221 and the fixing nut 222. The bearing screw 221 is smaller than the limiting hole 72 and larger than the limiting groove 71. After passing through the limiting hole 72, one end of the bearing screw 221 is fixed in the limiting groove 71, and the other end is fixedly connected to the bearing tube 21 via the matching bearing hole 223 and the fixing nut 222. Of course, the bearing fastener is not limited to this configuration and can be other structural designs that serve the same or similar functions. In this embodiment, the supporting fastener is set as a supporting screw and a fixing nut, which is very ingenious. The bottom of the supporting screw has the properties of a screw, with a protruding part that can be locked in the limiting groove. At the same time, the connection of the fixing nut can ensure that the supporting screw and the supporting tube are fixedly connected, thereby ensuring the stability of the faucet base connection.

[0038] Specifically, gaskets 8 are provided at the lower end of the main connecting pipe 1, between the supporting pipe 21 and the faucet base 3. In this embodiment, gaskets 8 are provided at the lower end of the main connecting pipe 1, between the supporting pipe 21 and the faucet base 3. The gaskets ensure a stable connection and facilitate repair and replacement should any structural damage occur. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the gaskets are threaded, with threads connecting the gaskets to both the main connecting pipe and the supporting pipe. Of course, other connection methods can be used as long as the gasket connection is secure.

[0039] Specifically, secondary fasteners 9 are provided on both the main connecting pipe 1 and the fixing component 2, making the connection between the main connecting pipe 1 and the adjusting component 4, and between the fixing component 2 and the faucet base 3 more secure. In this embodiment, secondary fasteners 9 are provided on both the main connecting pipe 1 and the fixing component 2, making the connection between the main connecting pipe 1 and the adjusting component 4, and between the fixing component 2 and the faucet base 3 more secure. In this embodiment, the secondary fasteners are set as screws, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the gasket and the main connecting pipe are threaded together, and the gasket and the bearing pipe are threaded together. By setting a secondary fixing component, that is, by tightening the screw downward on the body pipe 1, the connection between the gasket and the bottom surface of the water tank can be made tighter. At the same time, the connection between the upper adjusting component 41 and the lower fixing component 42 and the water tank can be made more stable. Similarly, by setting a secondary fixing component, that is, by tightening the screw upward on the gasket 8, the connection between the gasket 8, the faucet base 3, and the bearing pipe 21 can be made tighter. Since the gasket 8, the faucet base 3, and the bearing pipe 21 are already threaded together, the secondary tightening makes the connection even tighter.

[0040] Specifically, a protective outer shell 10 is fixedly connected to the outside of the main connecting pipe 1. In this embodiment, the protective outer shell 10 is fixedly connected to the outside of the main connecting pipe 1, and the protective shell is made of stainless steel because stainless steel is relatively durable.

[0041] Specifically, the dimension of one end of water pipe 5 is larger than that of water pipe position 6. In this example, there are two water pipes 5, one for cold water and one for hot water, and the dimension of one end of the water pipe is larger than that of the water pipe position, such as... Figure 2As shown, a cap is installed at the bottom of the water pipe, with a size larger than the water pipe position. This design is for ease of installation. In actual use, during installation, a person only needs to pull one end of the water pipe upwards. Because the other end of the water pipe is larger than the water pipe position, it can drive the adjustment component, which in turn drives the lower fixing component. Then, the main connecting pipe and the lower fixing component are fixed to the upper and lower sides of the water tank through the upper adjustment component. At this point, one person can complete the operation, making installation convenient and quick. Of course, it is not necessary to always use a cap; as long as the size of one end of the water pipe is larger than the water pipe position, it is fine. If there is only one water pipe, the cap size should be larger than the water pipe position. If there are multiple water pipes, the cap size of all the water pipes can be added together to form the water pipe position size, as long as it ensures that the water pipe can provide a pulling effect when installed on the water tank after passing through the water pipe position.

[0042] Example 2:

[0043] like Figure 1-5As shown, the faucet installation and connection structure includes a main connecting pipe 1. A fixing component 2 is provided at the upper end of the main connecting pipe 1 for fixed connection. In this embodiment, the main connecting pipe and the fixing component are fixedly connected by threads. A faucet base 3 for connecting the faucet is provided on the fixing component 2. The fixing component 2 and the faucet base 3 are matched and fixedly connected. In this embodiment, the fixing component and the faucet base are fixedly connected by threads. An adjusting component 4 for fixing it to the water tank and being adjustable up and down is provided at the lower end of the main connecting pipe 1. A water pipe 5 and a water pipe position 6 are provided in both the main connecting pipe 1 and the adjusting component 4 for matching. The water pipe 5 is set in the water pipe position 6, and the water pipe 5 and the faucet base 3 are fixedly connected to each other. In this embodiment, during actual use, mounting holes are generally provided on the bottom surface 12 of the water tank. The water pipe is first passed through the water pipe position on the adjusting component, then through the mounting hole of the water tank, and then through the water pipe position on the main connecting pipe. At this time, the bottom surface of the water tank and the main connecting pipe can be fixedly connected by the adjusting component. Because a fixing component 2 is provided at the upper end of the main connecting pipe 1, and a matching faucet base is provided on the fixing component, the faucet and faucet base match each other during actual use, and the faucet base and fixing component match and are fixedly connected. Therefore, according to actual needs, the faucet base and fixing component can be set with a mutually cooperating, snap-fit, or butt-joining stable connection structure. Because the faucet is connected to the faucet base, the stability of the faucet can also be ensured by setting a mutually cooperating stable structure between the faucet base and the fixing component, thus solving the problem of unstable faucet installation in the existing method. Meanwhile, since water tanks generally have depth, and the depth of water tanks varies from household to household, the adjustment component can be adjusted according to the actual thickness of the water tank during use. This allows the main connecting pipe and the adjustment component, once fixedly connected, to adapt to water tanks of different depths without altering any existing tank structure. Therefore, it solves the problem of existing faucet installations being unable to adapt to diverse needs. Furthermore, the aforementioned structure of the main connecting pipe, fixing component, and adjustment component is pioneering; no similar design existed before. This structure allows for operation by one person, eliminating the need for two, significantly saving labor costs, and making installation extremely convenient.

[0044] Specifically, the adjustment component 4 includes a matching upper adjustment member 41 and a lower fixing member 42. Both the main connecting pipe 1 and the lower fixing member 42 are provided with adjustment and fixing positions 43 that match the upper adjustment member 41. The main connecting pipe 1 is fixedly connected to the water tank through the matching upper adjustment member 41, adjustment and fixing positions 43, and lower fixing member 42, and can be adjusted vertically. In this embodiment, as... Figure 2 , 3As shown in Figure 5, the upper adjusting component 41 is a screw, and the adjusting fixing position 43 is a threaded hole that matches the thread of the upper adjusting component 41. After the upper adjusting component is connected to the adjusting fixing position via the thread, the tail end of the upper adjusting component and the lower fixing component are fixedly connected. Because the screw can be relatively long, the upper adjusting component can be adapted to water tanks of different depths by adjusting the screw length. Thus, it can be ensured that after the main connecting pipe 1 is fixedly connected to the water tank through the matching upper adjusting component 41 and lower fixing component 42, it can adapt to water tanks of different depths without changing any existing structure of the water tank. Of course, the upper adjusting component, adjusting fixing position, and lower fixing component do not necessarily have to be threaded structures; they can also be other structures with similar functions.

[0045] Specifically, the lower fixing member 42 is annular in shape, and the water pipe 5 and water pipe position 6 are disposed inside the lower fixing member 42. A sealing ring 11 for preventing water leakage is provided above the lower fixing member 42. In this embodiment, a sealing ring 11 for preventing water leakage is provided above the lower fixing member because there may be a certain gap after the water tank and the lower fixing member are directly connected. In order to prevent water leakage, a sealing ring can be added. Of course, if the connection is tight enough, this can be omitted.

[0046] Specifically, the fixing component 2 includes a support pipe 21 and a support fixing member 22. The support pipe 21 is fixedly connected to the faucet base 3, and the support pipe 21 is fixedly connected to the main connecting pipe 1 through the support fixing member 22. In this embodiment, the fixing component is set as a support pipe 21 and a support fixing member 22, with the support pipe 21 fixedly connected to the faucet base 3 and the support pipe 21 fixedly connected to the main connecting pipe 1 through the support fixing member 22. Of course, this is not the only option; other structural designs that serve the same or similar functions can also be used.

[0047] Specifically, a limiting component 7 is provided on the main connecting pipe 1, and the supporting fastener 22 is fixedly connected to the main connecting pipe 1 through the limiting component 7. In this embodiment, the limiting component 7 is provided on the main connecting pipe 1, and the supporting fastener 22 is fixedly connected to the main connecting pipe 1 through the limiting component 7. The limiting component 7 includes a limiting groove 71 and a limiting hole 72. The limiting groove 71 is arranged around the upper end of the main connecting pipe 1, and the limiting hole 72 is arranged in the limiting groove 71 and penetrates the main connecting pipe 1. The size of the supporting fastener 22 is smaller than that of the limiting hole 72 and larger than that of the limiting groove 71. After the supporting fastener 22 passes through the limiting hole 72, one end of the supporting fastener 22 is fixed in the limiting groove 71, and the other end of the supporting fastener 22 is fixedly connected to the supporting pipe 21. Of course, the limiting component is not limited to this arrangement and can also be other structural designs that play the same or similar roles. This embodiment is ingeniously designed. By setting a limiting component and designing it as a limiting groove and a limiting hole, the bearing fastener can be fixedly connected to the main connecting pipe. Moreover, it can be hidden above the main connecting pipe, which saves space on the one hand and is very convenient to install on the other hand. It can be installed simply by passing the bearing fastener through the limiting hole, and the bearing fastener and the main connecting pipe can be fixedly connected.

[0048] Specifically, the bearing fastener 22 includes a bearing screw 221 and a fixing nut 222. A bearing hole 223 matching the bearing screw 221 is provided on the bearing tube 21. The main connecting tube 1 is fixedly connected to the bearing tube 21 via the bearing screw 221 and the fixing nut 222. In this embodiment, the bearing fastener is configured as a bearing screw 221 and a fixing nut 222. A bearing hole 223 matching the bearing screw 221 is provided on the bearing tube 21. The main connecting tube 1 is fixedly connected to the bearing tube 21 via the bearing screw 221 and the fixing nut 222. The bearing screw 221 is smaller than the limiting hole 72 and larger than the limiting groove 71. After passing through the limiting hole 72, one end of the bearing screw 221 is fixed in the limiting groove 71, and the other end is fixedly connected to the bearing tube 21 via the matching bearing hole 223 and the fixing nut 222. Of course, the bearing fastener is not limited to this configuration and can be other structural designs that serve the same or similar functions. In this embodiment, the supporting fastener is set as a supporting screw and a fixing nut, which is very ingenious. The bottom of the supporting screw has the properties of a screw, with a protruding part that can be locked in the limiting groove. At the same time, the connection of the fixing nut can ensure that the supporting screw and the supporting tube are fixedly connected, thereby ensuring the stability of the faucet base connection.

[0049] Specifically, gaskets 8 are provided at the lower end of the main connecting pipe 1, between the supporting pipe 21 and the faucet base 3. In this embodiment, gaskets 8 are provided at the lower end of the main connecting pipe 1, between the supporting pipe 21 and the faucet base 3. The gaskets ensure a stable connection and facilitate repair and replacement should any structural damage occur. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the gaskets are threaded, with threads connecting the gaskets to both the main connecting pipe and the supporting pipe. Of course, other connection methods can be used as long as the gasket connection is secure.

[0050] Specifically, secondary fasteners 9 are provided on both the main connecting pipe 1 and the fixing component 2, making the connection between the main connecting pipe 1 and the adjusting component 4, and between the fixing component 2 and the faucet base 3 more secure. In this embodiment, secondary fasteners 9 are provided on both the main connecting pipe 1 and the fixing component 2, making the connection between the main connecting pipe 1 and the adjusting component 4, and between the fixing component 2 and the faucet base 3 more secure. In this embodiment, the secondary fasteners are set as screws, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the gasket and the main connecting pipe are threaded together, and the gasket and the bearing pipe are threaded together. By setting a secondary fixing component, that is, by tightening the screw downward on the body pipe 1, the connection between the gasket and the bottom surface of the water tank can be made tighter. At the same time, the connection between the upper adjusting component 41 and the lower fixing component 42 and the water tank can be made more stable. Similarly, by setting a secondary fixing component, that is, by tightening the screw upward on the gasket 8, the connection between the gasket 8, the faucet base 3, and the bearing pipe 21 can be made tighter. Since the gasket 8, the faucet base 3, and the bearing pipe 21 are already threaded together, the secondary tightening makes the connection even tighter.

[0051] Specifically, a protective outer shell 10 is fixedly connected to the outside of the main connecting pipe 1. In this embodiment, the protective outer shell 10 is fixedly connected to the outside of the main connecting pipe 1, and the protective shell is made of plastic.

[0052] Specifically, the size of one end of the water pipe 5 is larger than that of the water pipe position 6. In this example, there is only one water pipe 5, that is, only a cold water pipe, and the size of one end of the water pipe is larger than that of the water pipe position.

[0053] Example 3:

[0054] like Figure 1-5As shown, the faucet installation and connection structure includes a main connecting pipe 1, a fixing component 2 for fixed connection at the upper end of the main connecting pipe 1, a faucet base 3 for connecting the faucet on the fixing component 2, the fixing component 2 and the faucet base 3 are matched and fixedly connected to each other, and an adjusting component 4 for fixing it to the water tank and being adjustable up and down at the lower end of the main connecting pipe 1. A water pipe 5 and a water pipe position 6 for matching each other are provided in both the main connecting pipe 1 and the adjusting component 4. The water pipe 5 is set in the water pipe position 6, and the water pipe 5 and the faucet base 3 are fixedly connected to each other. In this embodiment, during actual use, mounting holes are generally provided on the bottom surface 12 of the water tank. The water pipe is first passed through the water pipe position on the adjusting component, then through the mounting hole of the water tank, and then through the water pipe position on the main connecting pipe. At this time, the bottom surface of the water tank and the main connecting pipe can be fixedly connected by the adjusting component. Because a fixing component 2 is provided at the upper end of the main connecting pipe 1, and a matching faucet base is provided on the fixing component, the faucet and faucet base match each other during actual use, and the faucet base and fixing component match and are fixedly connected. Therefore, according to actual needs, the faucet base and fixing component can be set with a mutually cooperating, snap-fit, or butt-joining stable connection structure. Because the faucet is connected to the faucet base, the stability of the faucet can also be ensured by setting a mutually cooperating stable structure between the faucet base and the fixing component, thus solving the problem of unstable faucet installation in the existing method. Meanwhile, since water tanks generally have depth, and the depth of water tanks varies from household to household, the adjustment component can be adjusted according to the actual thickness of the water tank during use. This allows the main connecting pipe and the adjustment component, once fixedly connected, to adapt to water tanks of different depths without altering any existing tank structure. Therefore, it solves the problem of existing faucet installations being unable to adapt to diverse needs. Furthermore, the aforementioned structure of the main connecting pipe, fixing component, and adjustment component is pioneering; no similar design existed before. This structure allows for operation by one person, eliminating the need for two, significantly saving labor costs, and making installation extremely convenient.

[0055] Specifically, the adjustment component 4 includes a matching upper adjustment member 41 and a lower fixing member 42. Both the main connecting pipe 1 and the lower fixing member 42 are provided with adjustment and fixing positions 43 that match the upper adjustment member 41. The main connecting pipe 1 is fixedly connected to the water tank through the matching upper adjustment member 41, adjustment and fixing positions 43, and lower fixing member 42, and can be adjusted vertically. In this embodiment, as... Figure 2 , 3As shown in Figure 5, the upper adjusting component 41 is a screw, and the adjusting fixing position 43 is a threaded hole that matches the thread of the upper adjusting component 41. After the upper adjusting component is connected to the adjusting fixing position via the thread, the tail end of the upper adjusting component and the lower fixing component are fixedly connected. Because the screw can be relatively long, the upper adjusting component can be adapted to water tanks of different depths by adjusting the screw length. Thus, it can be ensured that after the main connecting pipe 1 is fixedly connected to the water tank through the matching upper adjusting component 41 and lower fixing component 42, it can adapt to water tanks of different depths without changing any existing structure of the water tank. Of course, the upper adjusting component, adjusting fixing position, and lower fixing component do not necessarily have to be threaded structures; they can also be other structures with similar functions.

[0056] Specifically, the lower fixing member 42 is annular in shape, and the water pipe 5 and water pipe position 6 are disposed inside the lower fixing member 42. A sealing ring 11 for preventing water leakage is provided above the lower fixing member 42. In this embodiment, a sealing ring 11 for preventing water leakage is provided above the lower fixing member because there may be a certain gap after the water tank and the lower fixing member are directly connected. In order to prevent water leakage, a sealing ring can be added. Of course, if the connection is tight enough, this can be omitted.

[0057] Specifically, the fixing component 2 includes a support pipe 21 and a support fixing member 22. The support pipe 21 is fixedly connected to the faucet base 3, and the support pipe 21 is fixedly connected to the main connecting pipe 1 through the support fixing member 22. In this embodiment, the fixing component is set as a support pipe 21 and a support fixing member 22, with the support pipe 21 fixedly connected to the faucet base 3 and the support pipe 21 fixedly connected to the main connecting pipe 1 through the support fixing member 22. Of course, this is not the only option; other structural designs that serve the same or similar functions can also be used.

The limiting groove 71 is arranged around the upper end of the main connecting pipe 1, and the limiting hole 72 is arranged in the limiting groove 71 and penetrates the main connecting pipe 1. The size of the supporting fastener 22 is smaller than that of the limiting hole 72 and larger than that of the limiting groove 71. After the supporting fastener 22 passes through the limiting hole 72, one end of the supporting fastener 22 is fixed in the limiting groove 71, and the other end of the supporting fastener 22 is fixedly connected to the supporting pipe 21. Of course, the limiting component is not limited to this arrangement and can also be other structural designs that play the same or similar roles. This embodiment is ingeniously designed. By setting a limiting component and designing it as a limiting groove and a limiting hole, the bearing fastener can be fixedly connected to the main connecting pipe. Moreover, it can be hidden above the main connecting pipe, which saves space on the one hand and is very convenient to install on the other hand. It can be installed simply by passing the bearing fastener through the limiting hole, and the bearing fastener and the main connecting pipe can be fixedly connected.

[0059] Specifically, the bearing fastener 22 includes a bearing screw 221 and a fixing nut 222. A bearing hole 223 matching the bearing screw 221 is provided on the bearing tube 21. The main connecting tube 1 is fixedly connected to the bearing tube 21 via the bearing screw 221 and the fixing nut 222. In this embodiment, the bearing fastener is configured as a bearing screw 221 and a fixing nut 222. A bearing hole 223 matching the bearing screw 221 is provided on the bearing tube 21. The main connecting tube 1 is fixedly connected to the bearing tube 21 via the bearing screw 221 and the fixing nut 222. The bearing screw 221 is smaller than the limiting hole 72 and larger than the limiting groove 71. After passing through the limiting hole 72, one end of the bearing screw 221 is fixed in the limiting groove 71, and the other end is fixedly connected to the bearing tube 21 via the matching bearing hole 223 and the fixing nut 222. Of course, the bearing fastener is not limited to this configuration and can be other structural designs that serve the same or similar functions. In this embodiment, the supporting fastener is set as a supporting screw and a fixing nut, which is very ingenious. The bottom of the supporting screw has the properties of a screw, with a protruding part that can be locked in the limiting groove. At the same time, the connection of the fixing nut can ensure that the supporting screw and the supporting tube are fixedly connected, thereby ensuring the stability of the faucet base connection.

Similarly, by setting a secondary fixing component, that is, by tightening the screw upward on the gasket 8, the connection between the gasket 8, the faucet base 3, and the bearing pipe 21 can be made tighter. Since the gasket 8, the faucet base 3, and the bearing pipe 21 are already threaded together, the secondary tightening makes the connection even tighter.

[0062] Specifically, a protective outer shell 10 is fixedly connected to the outside of the main connecting pipe 1. In this embodiment, the protective outer shell 10 is fixedly connected to the outside of the main connecting pipe 1, and the protective shell is made of iron.

[0063] Specifically, the size of one end of the water pipe 5 is larger than that of the water pipe position 6. In this example, there are three water pipes 5, and the size of one end of the water pipe is larger than that of the water pipe position because some households have three types of water: cold water, hot water, and purified water.
