[0034] The thermostatic valve body 2 and the faucet valve body 3 are compactly arranged inside the outer shell 1 for easy installation and maintenance. The longitudinal pipe 11 of the shower rod is used for waist spraying water, and the transverse pipe 12 is used for top spraying water. The two are modularly arranged to improve the compatibility and convenience of each structural component. In addition, the first water circuit can be externally connected to the spray gun 23, which is suitable for special scenarios such as cleaning the floor and washing pets, while the second water circuit is connected to the handheld shower 24 to provide a flexible handheld shower experience. The third water circuit supports waist spray and top spray functions through the shower rod to provide more diverse showering methods.

[0035] The housing 1 adopts a split base 4 and cover 5, which is convenient for assembly and internal maintenance, reducing the cost of use, and adopts a top opening design, which is convenient for installation and maintenance, while improving the overall aesthetics. In particular, the thermostatic valve body 2 reduces the waste of water resources in the process of water temperature adjustment by accurately controlling the ratio of cold and hot water, and the waist spray and top spray can optimize water distribution and further improve water efficiency.

[0036] In addition, the outer shell 1 is provided with an upper water outlet 10 on the upper end surface and a plurality of lower water outlets 9 on the lower end surface, so that it is convenient to directly connect a shower rod along the upper water outlet 10, and a hand-held showerhead 24 and a spray gun 23 are connected to the corresponding hose along the lower water outlet 9, which greatly improves the water outlet arrangement of the entire shower device and facilitates the unified integration of the water outlet function on the entire outer shell 1.
