[0027] From the above description of the present invention and its preferred embodiments, it can be seen that compared with the prior art, the technical solution of the present invention and its preferred embodiments have the following beneficial effects due to the adoption of the following technical means:

[0028] 1. In solution 1 and its preferred embodiment, the operating member is suitable for pulling down and applying force to the locking member, so that the locking member moves and maintains a posture of holding the tube portion and pressing against the table surface. The locking member holds the tube portion so that the tube portion and the mounting mechanism move together. Since the locking member also presses against the table surface, double clamping and fixation are achieved, and the mounting mechanism can be prevented from moving upward, thereby preventing the faucet from moving upward.

[0029] 2. In the second solution and its preferred embodiment,

[0030] The locking component includes a locking block, which is positioned within the mounting hole and adapted to tilt and slide along a first direction and a direction perpendicular to the first direction to position between a locked position and an unlocked position. When in the locked position, the locking block abuts against the countertop's lower surface and the tube portion. The abutment of the locking block against the tube portion creates friction between the two, allowing upward movement of the faucet, which in turn drives the locking block upward. However, because the locking block also abuts against the countertop's lower surface, limiting its position, the faucet does not move upward. While achieving a tight grip, it also achieves an upward limit, achieving dual clamping and better fixation of the faucet. In the unlocked position, the locking block is adapted to disengage from the countertop's lower surface and the tube portion, thereby allowing the mounting mechanism to be disassembled.

[0031] The operating member is installed on the shell, and is suitable for moving and docking relative to the shell, and is suitable for abutting against the locking block to make the locking block slide to the locking position, thereby causing the locking block to lock the pipe portion, and the operating member can dock relative to the shell, that is, after its movement is completed, its position is fixed, thereby preventing the locking block from loosening, causing the faucet to move upward.

[0032] 3. In scheme three and its preferred embodiment, the mounting hole is provided with a guide slope extending in a direction perpendicular to the first direction and tilted upward. The locking block is located on the guide slope to be suitable for inclined sliding, providing support, and can realize inclined sliding guidance, so that the locking block slides more accurately.

[0033] 4. In the fourth solution and its preferred embodiment, the number of locking blocks is at least two, thereby achieving a better locking effect. The number of operating members is the same as the number of locking blocks, and they are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence, thereby achieving one-to-one control.

[0034] 5. In Option 5 and its preferred embodiment, the operating member includes a rack and a push block. The push block has an operating portion exposed from the housing, the operating portion being adapted to receive force to cause the push block to slide in a first direction. The push block is adapted to abut against the locking block to cause the locking block to slide toward a locked position, thereby facilitating operation of the push block and achieving sliding of the push block. The rack is provided with a first tooth portion, and the push block is provided with a second tooth portion adapted to engage with the first tooth portion. The first tooth portion or the second tooth portion is provided with a plurality of teeth arranged along the sliding direction of the push block, thereby maintaining engagement within the sliding range of the push block, thereby ensuring that the push block remains parked.

[0035] 6. In the sixth embodiment and its preferred embodiments, to facilitate disengagement of the first and second teeth, thereby facilitating sliding of the push block, the rack or push block is flexible, deforming when subjected to force, thereby facilitating disengagement of the first and second teeth, and allowing re-engagement when no force is applied. Alternatively, the rack is adapted to slide in a direction perpendicular to the first direction to disengage or re-engage the first and second teeth, thereby engaging or disengaging the first and second teeth by moving them closer or further apart.

[0036] 7. In Scheme 7 and its preferred embodiment, the operating part includes a worm wheel and a worm, the worm and the worm wheel are spirally matched, the worm wheel is suitable for being pulled down to rotate, and the worm wheel is suitable for abutting against the locking block to make the locking block slide to the locking position. The spiral matching of the worm wheel and the worm can also achieve the docking of the worm wheel, thereby ensuring the stable position of the locking block.

[0037] 8. Option 8 and its preferred embodiments further include a first drive member and a second drive member, which are rotatably connected to the worm gear around an axis parallel to the rotation axis of the worm gear. The first drive member and the second drive member are exposed from the housing to be suitable for being operated to make the worm gear rotate forward and reverse, thereby facilitating the locking and unlocking of the locking block when operating the worm gear.

[0038] 9. In Option 9 and its preferred embodiment, the shell is provided with an adhesive groove, which opens at the top surface of the shell. The adhesive groove is suitable for accommodating adhesive products, so that when the shell is placed on the bottom of the table, it can be initially adhered to the top of the table, thereby achieving preliminary positioning, facilitating subsequent operation of operating parts, etc.

[0039] 10. In the tenth embodiment and its preferred embodiments, the housing comprises a detachably connected upper housing and a lower housing. Separate manufacturing facilitates fabrication of the corresponding structure. The locking block abuts against the lower housing and the operating member, or against the upper housing and the operating member, along a first direction, thereby preventing the locking block from disengaging. Since the upper and lower housings are detachable, the locking block can be detached upon disassembly, enabling replacement. This prevents the locking block from gripping the tube but not against the tabletop, or vice versa, in certain situations.

[0040] 11. In the eleventh embodiment and its preferred embodiment, the locking block has one of a plurality of protrusions, grooves, or teeth on its surface adapted to abut against the tube, thereby securing the tube while also providing a certain degree of vertical positioning. Even if a gap exists between the corresponding mating structure and the tube, the locking block's abutment against the tabletop compensates for the gap.

[0041] 12. In the twelfth embodiment and its preferred embodiment, the locking block is flexible. On the one hand, the flexible locking block deforms to abut against the tube or the table, improving the degree of fixation. On the other hand, a certain margin is provided to prevent the locking block from being lower than only one of the tube or the table due to factors such as manufacturing precision. Furthermore, based on the tenth embodiment, the deformation of the locking block allows the locking block to press both upward against the table and downward against the tube, achieving interlocking. Due to its flexibility, it also has a tendency to return to its original position, allowing the locking block to exert force upward against the table and downward against the tube, making the interlocking more stable and resistant to slight vibrations.

[0058] In the claims, description and drawings of the present invention, if the terms "include", "have" and their variations are used, they are intended to mean "including but not limited to".

[0059] refer to Figure 1-Figure 4 A mounting mechanism is provided, adapted to be mounted on the pipe portion 6 of a faucet located below a countertop 5. The countertop 5 is provided with a through-hole 51 extending in the vertical direction. The faucet comprises a pipe portion 6 and a raised ring protruding radially outward from the pipe portion 6. The raised ring is adapted to seat above the countertop 5 when the pipe portion 6 passes through the through-hole 51 and is located below the countertop 5, thereby preventing the faucet from moving downward. The mounting mechanism is adapted to be mounted on the pipe portion 6 of the faucet located below the countertop 5, thereby preventing the faucet from moving upward. Of course, in other embodiments, the mounting mechanism can also be used for installation in other similar environments, and is not limited to faucet products or vertical installation. The following takes the installation of the faucet on the countertop 5 as an example.

[0060] The mounting mechanism includes a housing 1 , a locking component and an operating member 3 .

[0061] refer to Figure 1 The shell 1 includes a detachably connected upper shell 11 and a lower shell 12. The upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12 are integrated by means of snap connection, threaded connection, etc. Preferably, the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12 are snap connected to ensure that the structures on the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12 are easy to correspond and will not be misplaced.

[0062] The upper housing 11 includes a first fixing hole 111, a first mounting hole 112, a second mounting hole 113, and a third mounting hole 114 extending along a first direction 4 (in this embodiment, the vertical direction). The first fixing hole 111 is located in the middle of the upper housing 11 and is circular in shape. The first fixing hole 111, the first mounting hole 112, the second mounting hole 113, and the third mounting hole 114 are sequentially connected radially and outwardly. In this embodiment, there are two first mounting holes 112, the second mounting holes 113, and the third mounting holes 114, which are symmetrically arranged on either side of the first fixing hole 111. This allows the locking block 2 to be installed laterally to be symmetrically arranged, resulting in a more uniform force on the tube portion 6. The first mounting hole 112, the second mounting hole 113, and the third mounting hole 114 are generally square in shape. Two limiting protrusions 115 are provided on the walls of each of the second and third mounting holes 113, 114. These two limiting protrusions 115 extend in the first direction 4 and protrude perpendicularly from the opposite walls of the second or third mounting hole 113, 114. The two limiting protrusions 115 are spaced apart. The top of the upper housing 11 is also provided with an adhesive slot 116. The adhesive slot 116 opens into the top surface of the housing 1 and is suitable for receiving adhesive products, such as 3M glue, ordinary glue, or Velcro. By attaching these adhesive products, the upper housing 11 can be initially secured to the underside of the countertop 5.

[0063] The lower shell 12 is provided with a support surface 121, an inclined rail 122, an operating hole 123, and a second fixed through-hole 124. The support surface 121 is perpendicular to the first direction 4 and faces the table 5. The inclined rails 122 protrude from the support surface 121. There are two inclined rails 122, which are symmetrically arranged. The inclined rails 122 are provided with a guide slope 1221 extending in a direction perpendicular to the first direction 4 and tilting upward. The operating hole 123 and the second fixed through-hole 124 both pass through the lower shell 12 along the first direction 4. There are also two operating holes 123, which are symmetrically arranged. The second fixed through-hole 124 is located in the middle of the lower shell 12 and is circular. When the lower shell 12 is installed on the upper shell 11, the support surface 121, the inclined rail 122, the operating hole 123, the second fixed through-hole 124, the first fixed through-hole 111, the first mounting hole 112, the second mounting hole 113, and the third mounting hole 114 enclose a mounting hole extending along the first direction 4. Specifically, the support surface 121 corresponds to the third mounting hole 114 to be located below the third mounting hole 114, and the operating hole 123 is connected to the second mounting hole 113 to support the operating member 3 and expose the operating end of the operating member 3 to the shell 1; the inclined slide rail 122 corresponds to the first mounting hole 112 to be located below the first mounting hole 112, and is used to support the locking block 2; the second fixing through hole 124 is connected to the first fixing through hole 111 to be sleeved on the tube 6; when the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12 are clamped, the above corresponding relationship is not easy to be misaligned.

[0064] The locking component is mounted on the housing 1 and includes a locking block 2 positioned within the mounting hole. There are at least two locking blocks 2. In this embodiment, there are two locking blocks 2. Alternatively, there may be only one locking block 2. In this case, the locking block 2 and the wall of the mounting hole can jointly clamp the pipe portion 6 to lock the pipe portion 6. In this embodiment, the locking block 2 includes a sliding portion 21 and a clamping portion 22. The sliding portion 21 is positioned within the first mounting hole 112. The sliding portion 21 is shaped smaller at the top and larger at the bottom. The bottom surface of the sliding portion 21 is parallel to and rests on the guide slope 1221, allowing it to slide obliquely in the first direction 4 and perpendicular to the first direction 4. To prevent the locking block 2 from sliding toward the second mounting hole 113 and interfering with the movement of the operating member 3, a limiting bump can be provided at the bottom end of the guide slope 1221 to limit the sliding of the locking block 2. The side of the sliding portion 21 facing away from the clamping portion 22 is provided with a load-bearing inclined surface 211, which is used to abut against the operating member 3. The load-bearing inclined surface 211 extends downward and tilts radially outward. The clamping portion 22 is located within the first solid through-hole and is C-shaped to accommodate the tube portion 6, increase the contact area with the tube portion 6, and provide a tighter fixation on the tube portion 6. In other embodiments, the locking block 2 may not have the clamping portion 22. The sliding portion 21 is adapted to extend into the first fixing through-hole 111 when moving, and can achieve the same effect when abutting against the tube portion 6. To adapt to the outer wall shape of the tube portion 6 and ensure a better fit when the locking block 2 abuts against the tube portion 6, the surface of the locking block 2 abutting against the tube portion 6 (the clamping portion 22) can be provided with protrusions (corresponding to grooves on the tube portion 6), grooves (corresponding to protrusions on the tube portion 6), teeth (corresponding to teeth on the tube portion 6), etc., to cooperate with the tube portion 6 accordingly. The locking block 2 may be flexible so as to be suitable for compression and increase friction, ie, to compensate for assembly clearance.

[0065] The locking block 2 is adapted to slide obliquely to be positioned between a locked position and an unlocked position. When the locking block 2 is in the locked position, the locking block 2 is adapted to abut against the lower surface of the table 5 and the side wall of the tube 6, thereby restricting the tube 6 from moving upward. When in the unlocked position, the locking block 2 is adapted to be disengaged from the lower surface of the table 5 and the side wall of the tube 6, thereby facilitating the upward removal of the tube 6.

[0066] An operating member 3 is mounted on the housing 1 and is adapted to pull downward and apply force to the locking member, causing it to move and remain in a position where it embraces the tube 6 and rests against the table 5. The number of operating members 3 is the same as the number of locking blocks 2, and they are provided in a one-to-one correspondence. The operating member 3 is adapted to move and rest relative to the housing 1, and is adapted to abut against the locking block 2, causing it to slide toward the locked position.

[0067] Specifically, in this embodiment, the operating member 3 includes a rack 31 and a pushing block 32. The rack 31 is installed in the third mounting hole 114. A first tooth portion 311 is provided on the rack 31. The rack 31 is T-shaped. The first tooth portion 311 is suitable for extending from the gap between the two limiting protrusions 115 of the third mounting hole 114.

[0068] The push block 32 is positioned in the second mounting hole 113 and is adapted to slide in the first direction 4. The push block 32 is provided with a second tooth portion 322 adapted to engage with the first tooth portion 311. Both the first tooth portion 311 and the second tooth portion 322 are provided with a plurality of teeth arranged along the sliding direction of the push block 32. It should be understood that either the first tooth portion 311 or the second tooth portion 322 can have a plurality of teeth arranged along the sliding direction of the push block 32; the other can have only a single tooth.

[0069] The pushing block 32 has an operating portion 321 exposed from the shell 1 and extending along the first direction 4 (the operating portion 321 extends from the operating hole 123). The operating portion 321 is fixedly connected or movably connected to the pushing block 32. The operating portion 321 is suitable for receiving force to make the pushing block 32 slide along the first direction 4. The force received by the operating portion 321 can be a tensile force, a spiral force (i.e., the force of tightening a screw), etc. In this embodiment, the operating portion 321 is relatively fixed to the rest of the pushing block 32 and is suitable for receiving tensile force.

[0070] The end of the push block 32 facing away from the second tooth portion 322 extends from the gap between the two limiting protrusions 115 of the second mounting hole 113 and is adapted to abut against the force-bearing inclined surface 211 of the locking block 2. This allows the push block 32 to exert downward force on the locking block 2 when it moves downward, causing the locking block 2 to slide obliquely toward the locked position (under the action of the guide inclined surface 1221, the direction of the force changes, allowing the locking block 2 to slide obliquely upward). In other embodiments, the push block 32 and the housing 1 may also be threadedly engaged to push the locking block 2.

[0071] The rack 31 or the push block 32 is flexible, or the rack 31 is adapted to slide in a direction perpendicular to the sliding direction of the push block 32, so as to disengage or re-engage the first tooth portion 311 and the second tooth portion 322. The rack 31 can be reset by means of an elastic member or a locking block (e.g., a fastener threadedly engaged with the housing 1, the fastener abutting against the rack 31, causing the rack 31 to slide toward the push block 32). Preferably, the rack 31 or the push block 32 is flexible, which makes operation more convenient and more stable during use, and prevents the first tooth portion 311 and the second tooth portion 322 from disengaging.

[0072] During installation, the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12 are assembled into the shell 1, the locking block 2 is placed in the first mounting hole 112 and sits on the guide inclined surface 1221, the operating member 3 is installed, the rack 31 is placed in the third mounting hole 114 and sits on the support surface 121, the push block 32 is placed in the second mounting hole 113, the operating portion 321 of the push block 32 extends from the operating hole 123, and the push block 32 sits on the force-bearing inclined surface 211, so that the locking block 2 is respectively against the lower shell 12 and the operating member 3 along the first direction 4. The lower shell 12 is used to provide support, and the operating member 3 is used to apply force to it. In other embodiments, along the first direction 4, the locking block 2 is respectively against the upper shell 11 and the operating member 3. In this case, the operating member 3 is used to both apply force to the locking block 2 and support the locking block 2.

[0073] During use, the mounting mechanism is held under the countertop 5, allowing the faucet tube 6 to pass through the through-hole 51 in the countertop 5 and be inserted into the first fixing through-hole 111 of the mounting hole (which may be larger than the tube 6 or have an introductory bevel to facilitate insertion of the tube 6). The housing 1 is placed against the lower surface of the countertop 5, and the operating portion 321 is pulled, causing the push block 32 to move downward. The locking block 2 is then moved toward the center via the guide bevel 1221 by the push block 32, thereby clamping the tube 6. At the same time, due to the action of the guide bevel 1221, the locking block 2 also moves upward while moving toward the center, thereby supporting the lower surface of the countertop 5, thereby achieving double clamping and fixation. Due to the meshing relationship between the second tooth portion 322 and the second tooth portion 322, the push block 32 will not move easily, thereby ensuring that the locking block 2 will not move easily, ensuring the stability of the installation process. If the locking block 2 is flexible during installation and can only abut against the tube 6 or the table 5, double clamping and locking can be achieved by removing the housing 1, replacing the locking block 2, and changing the corresponding height or width. The sliding of the locking block 2 to the unlocked position can be automatically reset by its own gravity or elastic means.

[0074] Compared with the prior art, this embodiment has the following beneficial effects:

[0075] In an exemplary embodiment, the operating member 3 is suitable for pulling down and applying force to the locking component, so that the locking component moves and maintains a posture of holding the tube portion 6 and pressing against the table 5. The locking component holds the tube portion 6 so that the tube portion 6 and the installation mechanism move together. Since the locking component also presses against the table 5, double clamping and fixation are achieved, and the installation mechanism can be prevented from moving upward, thereby preventing the faucet from moving upward.

[0076] In an exemplary embodiment, a mounting mechanism is provided, which is suitable for being mounted on a pipe portion 6 of a faucet located below a countertop 5 , and includes a housing 1 , a locking block 2 and an operating member 3 .

[0077] The housing 1 is provided with a mounting hole extending along the first direction 4 to be sleeved on the pipe portion 6 so that the pipe portion 6 can be locked by the locking block 2 .

[0078] The locking block 2 is positioned within the mounting hole and is adapted to tilt and slide along a first direction 4 and a direction perpendicular thereto, to position the faucet between a locked position and an unlocked position. In the locked position, the locking block 2 abuts against the lower surface of the countertop 5 and the tube 6. The abutment between the locking block 2 and the tube 6 creates friction, allowing upward movement of the faucet with the locking block 2. However, since the locking block 2 also abuts against the lower surface of the countertop 5, limiting the position, the faucet does not move upward. This allows for both upward clamping and downward limiting, achieving dual clamping and better securing of the faucet. In the unlocked position, the locking block 2 disengages from the lower surface of the countertop 5 and the tube 6, allowing the mounting mechanism and faucet to be disassembled.

[0079] The operating member 3 is mounted on the housing 1 and is suitable for moving and docking relative to the housing 1. It is suitable for abutting against the locking block 2 to slide the locking block 2 toward the locking position, thereby causing the locking block 2 to lock the tube portion 6. The operating member 3 can dock relative to the housing 1, that is, after its movement is completed, its position is fixed, thereby preventing the locking block 2 from loosening, causing the faucet to move upward.

[0080] In an exemplary embodiment, the mounting hole is provided with a guide slope 1221 extending in a direction perpendicular to the first direction 4 and tilted upward. The locking block 2 is located on the guide slope 1221 to be suitable for inclined sliding, provide support, and realize inclined sliding guidance, so that the locking block 2 slides more accurately.

[0081] In an exemplary embodiment, the number of locking blocks 2 is at least two, thereby achieving a better locking effect. The number of operating members 3 is the same as the number of locking blocks 2, and they are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence, thereby achieving one-to-one control.

[0082] In an exemplary embodiment, the operating member 3 includes a rack 31 and a push block 32. The push block 32 has an operating portion 321 exposed from the housing 1. The operating portion 321 is adapted to receive force to cause the push block 32 to slide in the first direction 4. The push block 32 is adapted to abut against the locking block 2 to cause the locking block 2 to slide toward the locked position, thereby facilitating operation of the push block 32 and achieving sliding of the push block 32. The rack 31 is provided with a first tooth portion 311, and the push block 32 is provided with a second tooth portion 322 adapted to engage with the first tooth portion 311. The first tooth portion 311 or the second tooth portion 322 is provided with a plurality of teeth arranged along the sliding direction of the push block 32, so that the teeth can remain engaged within the sliding range of the push block 32, thereby ensuring that the push block 32 is parked.

[0083] In an exemplary embodiment, to facilitate the disengagement of the first tooth portion 311 and the second tooth portion 322, thereby facilitating the sliding of the push block 32, the rack 31 or the push block 32 is flexible, so that it deforms when subjected to force, facilitating the disengagement of the first tooth portion 311 and the second tooth portion 322, and allows them to re-engage when no force is applied. Alternatively, the rack 31 is adapted to slide in a direction perpendicular to the first direction 4 to disengage or re-engage the first tooth portion 311 and the second tooth portion 322, thereby engaging or disengaging the first tooth portion 311 and the second tooth portion 322 by moving the first tooth portion 311 and the second tooth portion 322 closer together or further apart.

[0084] In an exemplary embodiment, the shell 1 is provided with an adhesive groove 116, which opens at the top surface of the shell 1. The adhesive groove 116 is suitable for accommodating adhesive products, so that when the shell 1 is placed on the bottom of the table 5, it can be initially adhered to the top of the table 5, thereby achieving preliminary positioning, facilitating subsequent operation of the operating part 3, etc.

[0085] In an exemplary embodiment, the housing 1 includes a detachably connected upper housing 11 and a lower housing 12. Separate manufacturing facilitates fabrication of the corresponding structure. The locking block 2 abuts against the lower housing 12 and the operating member 3, or against the upper housing 11 and the operating member 3, along the first direction 4, thereby preventing the locking block 2 from detaching. Since the upper and lower housings 11 and 12 are detachable, the locking block 2 can be detached upon disassembly, enabling replacement of the locking block 2. This prevents the locking block 2 from gripping the tube 6 but not against the table 5, or vice versa, in certain situations.

[0086] In one exemplary embodiment, the locking block 2, adapted to abut against the pipe 6, has one of a plurality of protrusions, grooves, or teeth that mate with the pipe 6. This allows the locking block 2 to not only securely hold the pipe 6 but also, to a certain extent, maintain a vertical position of the pipe 6. Even if there is a vertical gap between the corresponding mating structure and the pipe 6, the locking block 2 abutting against the countertop 5 compensates for the gap and prevents the faucet from moving upward.

[0087] In one exemplary embodiment, the locking block 2 is flexible. On the one hand, the flexible locking block 2 deforms to abut against the tube 6 or the table 5, improving the degree of fixation. On the other hand, a certain margin is provided to prevent the locking block 2 from being lower than only one of the tube 6 or the table 5 due to manufacturing precision or other reasons. Furthermore, based on the tenth embodiment, the deformation of the locking block 2 allows the locking block 2 to press both upward against the table 5 and downward against the tube 6, achieving interlocking. Due to its flexibility, it also has a tendency to return to its original position, allowing the locking block 2 to apply force upward against the table 5 and downward against the tube 6, making the interlocking more stable and resistant to slight vibrations.

[0088] Example 2

[0089] The difference from the first embodiment is that the structure of the operating member 3 is different. In this embodiment,

[0090] refer to Figure 5 The operating member 3 includes a worm wheel 33 and a worm 34. The worm 34 is spirally matched with the worm wheel 33. The worm wheel 33 is suitable for pulling down to rotate. The worm wheel 33 is suitable for abutting the locking block 2, so that the locking block 2 slides to the locking position. If a cam 331 is provided on the worm wheel 33, the cam 331 is suitable for abutting the locking block 2, so that the locking block 2 slides to the locking position. The rotation axis of the worm 34 can be parallel to the first direction 4 or perpendicular to the first direction 4, preferably parallel to the first direction 4, so that the worm wheel 33 can more easily apply force to the locking block 2. The installation of the worm wheel 33 and the worm 34 is a conventional technology in this field and will not be elaborated on here. The spiral matching of the worm wheel 33 and the worm 34 can also achieve the docking of the worm wheel 33, thereby ensuring the stable position of the locking block 2.

[0091] In this embodiment, the worm wheel 33 is suitable for being operated to rotate the worm wheel 33. The first drive member 35 and the second drive member 36 are connected to the worm wheel 33 in rotation around an axis parallel to the rotation axis of the worm wheel 33 to ensure that the posture is not rotated by the rotation of the worm wheel 33. The first drive member 35 and the second drive member 36 are exposed to the housing 1 (operating hole 123) to be suitable for being operated to rotate the worm wheel 33 forward and reverse. When rotating forward, force is applied to the locking block 2 to slide toward the locked position. When reversing, the force is released to allow the locking block 2 to slide toward the unlocked position, thereby facilitating the locking and unlocking of the locking block 2. Due to the spiral fit between the worm wheel 33 and the worm 34, they can remain self-locking when not driven, thereby achieving the parking of the worm wheel 33 and the stability of the operation of the locking block 2. Among them, the first drive member 35 and the second drive member 36 can be ropes, etc.

[0092] Example 3

[0093] Different from the first and second embodiments, in this embodiment, the locking portion 37 includes two parts, namely, the locking portion 37 includes a clamping member 7 and a pressing member 8 to respectively abut against the tube portion 6 and the table 5 .

[0094] refer to Figure 6-Figure 8The number of clamping members 7 is at least two, and at least two clamping members 7 clamp the tube 6 in the locked position, thereby achieving a better clamping effect. Of course, even if there is only one clamping member 7, a clamping effect can still be achieved, such as when the clamping member 7 and the wall of the mounting hole clamp the tube 6 together. The clamping member 7 is operably movable and is arranged on the housing 1 in a locked position and an unlocked position. Here, operably movable means that it can be moved when driven by an external force, including direct operation (force directly acts on the clamping member 7) and indirect operation (force indirectly acts on the clamping member 7). The clamping member 7 and the housing 1 slide together in a direction perpendicular to the first direction 4. The clamping member 7 is suitable for abutting the tube 6, and its surface suitable for abutting the tube 6 has a protrusion (corresponding to a groove on the tube 6), a groove (corresponding to a protrusion on the tube 6), a tooth (corresponding to a tooth on the tube 6), etc. that cooperate with the tube 6. In this embodiment, the clamping member 7 has teeth on the surface suitable for abutting the tube 6.

[0095] When the clamping member 7 is in the unlocked position, the clamping member 7 is supported away from the tube 6 so that the mounting hole can be operatively inserted into the tube 6 from bottom to top; when it is in the locked position, the clamping member 7 extends into the mounting hole (when the mounting hole size is larger than the tube 6 size) and is supported to contact the tube 6. At this time, the clamping member 7 prevents the housing 1 from moving downward relative to the tube 6 through tooth fit or concave-convex fit (groove, protrusion) or friction (tight contact).

[0096] The pressing member 8 is operable to move and is supported on the housing 1 in a manner that produces displacement in the up and down directions during the movement. Specifically, a guide bevel 1221 (the structure may be the same as in Example 1) is provided above the housing 1. The guide bevel 1221 extends in the direction close to the mounting hole and is inclined upward so that the pressing member 8 can slide upward when pressed by the operating member 3. The pressing member 8 is located on the guide bevel 1221. The pressing member 8 is provided with an abutting bevel 81. The abutting bevel 81 extends in the direction away from the mounting hole and is inclined downward. In other embodiments, an intermediate block 9 may also be provided. The operating member 3 cooperates with the intermediate block 9 bevel so that when the operating member 3 applies a downward force to the intermediate block 9, the intermediate block 9 slides horizontally. The intermediate block 9 cooperates with the pressing member 8 bevel so that the pressing member 8 slides upward when the intermediate block 9 slides. Inclined surface cooperation means that at least one of the two cooperating objects is provided with an inclined surface or a curved surface so that the direction of the force is changed.

[0097] The operating member 3 is sleeved on the outside of the housing 1. The operating member 3 is configured to receive a downward force and apply force to the pressing member 8 when the clamping member 7 is in a locked position, so that the pressing member 8 is displaced upward and pressed against the lower surface of the table 5, thereby forming a force applied to the clamping member 7 toward the tube 6. The operating member 3 is movably supported on the housing 1. In this embodiment, the operating member 3 is suitable for slidingly connecting with the housing 1 up and down. In this embodiment, the upper end of the operating member 3 has an inclined surface that is the same as the abutting inclined surface 81, so as to cooperate with the inclined surface of the abutting inclined surface 81 of the pressing member 8, so that when force is applied to the pressing member 8, the pressing member 8 slides along the guide inclined surface 1221 in an inclined upward direction. Since the pressing member 8 is supported by the guide slope 1221, it presses against the lower surface of the table 5 and continues to move upward, which will cause the housing 1 to move downward, so that the clamping member 7 also moves downward to eliminate the corresponding matching gap (such as the upper and lower gaps between the teeth) and make the clamping member 7 press downward against the tube 6 to increase the corresponding friction force and prevent the clamping member 7 from returning to its original position under the action of the first biasing member 10. The lower end of the operating member 3 is provided with a locking portion 37.

[0098] The upper end of the locking portion 37 is adapted to abut against the clamping member 7. To release the limiting state, the operating member 3 can be adapted to move relative to the clamping member 7 to disengage from the abutment with the clamping member 7 and thereby release the limiting state. For example, the operating member 3 is adapted to cooperate with the inclined surface of the clamping member 7 when moving upward so that the locking portion 37 passes over the clamping member 7 to disengage from the abutment with the clamping member 7. In this embodiment, the operating member 3 cooperates with the inclined surface of the clamping member 7 when moving upward so that the clamping member 7 slides toward the locking posture (or the operating member 3 is deformed so as to pass over the clamping member 7) to release the limiting state. For example, the locking portion 37 has inclined surfaces (or hemispherical bodies 371) on both the upper and lower sides. The upper inclined surface is used to abut against the clamping member 7 to disengage from the limiting state of the operating member 3, and the lower inclined surface is used to abut against the clamping member 7 to enable the operating member 3 to enter the limiting state. Preferably, the locking portion 37 is elastic.

[0099] During the downward movement of the operating member 3, the clamping member 7 is subjected to the downward force of the operating member 3 by cooperating with the inclined surface of the clamping member 7, causing the clamping member 7 to move toward the locked position. This cooperative relationship precedes the cooperation between the operating member 3 and the pressing member 8. The clamping member 7 is reset to the unlocked position by the biasing member 10. The two ends of the biasing member 10 act on the housing 1 and the clamping member 7 respectively to apply a force to the clamping member 7 to move it toward the unlocked position. Under the action of the biasing member 10, the clamping member 7 and the operating member 3 are abutted to be in the locked position, thereby ensuring the stability of the locked position and preventing it from being reset due to the action of the biasing member 10.

[0100] During use, the faucet is placed on the countertop 5, and the mounting mechanism is moved upward so that the mounting hole is positioned outside the tube 6. The operating member 3 is pulled downward, causing it to act on the clamping member 7, which moves to a locked position. The operating member 3 also acts on the pressing member 8, which moves upward and abuts against the bottom of the countertop 5, causing the housing 1 to move downward as a whole. The clamping member 7 also has a downward tendency until friction and / or no gap between the teeth of the clamping member 7 and the tube 6 allow the clamping member 7 to move downward. At this point, the clamping member 7 cannot move downward and maintains the locked position. The friction increases, preventing the clamping member 7 from being reset by the biasing member 10. At the same time, the operating member 3 passes over the clamping member 7 and is prevented from moving upward by the clamping member 7, preventing it from easily sliding upward. Therefore, the pressing member 8 can also maintain its position. At the same time, under the action of the biasing member 10, the clamping member 7 and the operating member 3 abut against each other to be in a locked position, further maintaining the stability of the clamping member 7.

[0101] When disassembly is required, the operating member 3 is moved upward so that the operating member 3 is separated from the pressing member 8 through the inclined surface engagement. At this time, the operating member 3 can slide upward to reset the pressing member 8 and the clamping member 7 (on the biasing member 10).

[0102] For the reset of the pressing member 8, that is, the downward movement, an elastic member can be provided, with both ends of the elastic member acting on the pressing member 8 and the housing 1, thereby achieving its downward movement reset, or its self-resetting.

[0103] Compared with the prior art, this embodiment has the following beneficial effects:

[0104] In an exemplary embodiment,

[0105] The clamping member 7 is used to clamp the pipe portion 6. It is operably movable and is arranged on the housing 1 in a locked posture and an unlocked posture. In the unlocked posture, the clamping member 7 is supported away from the pipe portion 6 so that the mounting hole can be operably inserted into the pipe portion 6 from bottom to top, thereby allowing the pipe portion 6 to be installed; in the locked posture, the clamping member 7 is supported to contact the pipe portion 6 to prevent the pipe portion 6 from moving upward relative to the housing 1. Therefore, when the faucet moves upward, the clamping member 7 will have a tendency to move upward.

[0106] The pressing member 8 is supported on the housing 1 in a manner that it is movable and displaceable in the up and down directions during the movement. The pressing member 8 is used to abut against the lower surface of the table 5.

[0107] The operating member 3 is configured to receive a downward force and apply force to the pressing member 8 when the clamping member 7 is in the locked position, causing the pressing member 8 to move upward and press against the lower surface of the table 5, thereby causing the housing 1 to drive the clamping member 7 downward. This force is transmitted via the pressing member 8, forming a force applied to the clamping member 7 toward the tube 6, increasing the friction between the clamping member 7 and the tube 6, and achieving two-point locking. When the faucet moves upward, it drives the clamping member 7 upward, thereby driving the housing 1 upward. Due to the limiting effect of the pressing member 8, the tube 6 cannot move upward. When the clamping member 7 is in the locked position, the operating member 3 applies force again, and the housing 1 is effectively supported by the clamping member 7 and will not easily move downward due to the action of the operating member 3, thereby ensuring the stability of the installation process.

[0108] In an exemplary embodiment, the number of the clamping members 7 is at least two, and at least two clamping members 7 hold the tube portion 6 in a locking posture, thereby achieving a better locking effect.

[0109] In one exemplary embodiment, the clamping member 7 is adapted to abut against the surface of the tube 6 and has one of a plurality of protrusions, grooves, or teeth that mate with the tube 6. This allows the clamping member 7 to not only securely hold the tube 6 but also, to a certain extent, maintain the vertical position of the tube 6. Even if there is a vertical gap between the corresponding mating structure and the tube 6, the downward movement of the clamping member 7 due to the action of the pressing member 8 against the table 5 compensates for the gap, allowing the upper and lower ends of the mounting mechanism to abut against the table 5 and the tube 6, respectively, providing greater stability.

[0110] In an exemplary embodiment, a guide slope 1221 is provided on the shell 1, the clamping member 8 is located on the guide slope 1221, the operating member 3 cooperates with the slope of the clamping member 8, and is suitable for making the clamping member 8 slide in an inclined upward direction when force is applied to the clamping member 8, thereby realizing the upward movement and support of the clamping member 8.

[0111] In an exemplary embodiment, an intermediate block 9 is further included, and the operating member 3 cooperates with the inclined surface of the intermediate block 9 so that when the operating member 3 applies a downward force to the intermediate block 9, the intermediate block 9 slides horizontally. The intermediate block 9 cooperates with the inclined surface of the clamping member 8 so that when the intermediate block 9 slides, the clamping member 8 slides upward, thereby realizing the upward movement and support of the clamping member 8.

[0112] In an exemplary embodiment, the operating member 3 is sleeved outside the housing 1 for holding.

[0113] In an exemplary embodiment, the operating member 3 is supported on the housing 1 so as to be movable, thereby allowing the operating member 3 to release the force exerted on the pressing member 8, thereby achieving disassembly of the mounting mechanism.

[0114] In this embodiment, the operating member 3 is adapted to slide until it abuts against the clamping member 7 so as not to slide upward easily. Compared with the prior art, this embodiment has the following beneficial effects:

[0115] In an exemplary preferred embodiment, the clamping member 7 is adapted to be pressed to move to a locking posture, that is, the clamping member 7 is partially adapted to be exposed from the housing 1, such as downwardly or laterally, thereby allowing it to be pressed to achieve locking.

[0116] The clamping member 7 cooperates with the inclined surface of the operating member 3 to move to the locking posture under the downward force of the operating member 3. The operating member 3 simultaneously realizes the movement of the clamping member 7 and the pressing member 8, which is more convenient to operate and has a simpler structure.

[0117] In an exemplary embodiment, a biasing member 10 is further included. The two ends of the biasing member 10 act on the housing 1 and the clamping member 7, respectively, to apply a force to the clamping member 7 to cause it to move toward the unlocked position. The clamping member 7 abuts against the operating member 3 to be in the locked position, thereby maintaining the stability of the clamping member 7. The operating member 3 is adapted to move relative to the clamping member 7 to disengage from the abutment therewith. Consequently, under the action of the biasing member 10, the clamping member 7 automatically moves to the unlocked position, facilitating disassembly.

[0118] In an exemplary embodiment, the operating member 3 is provided with a locking portion 37, the upper end of the locking portion 37 is suitable for abutting against the clamping member 7, and is suitable for cooperating with the inclined surface of the clamping member 7 when moving upward to allow the locking portion 37 to pass over the clamping member 7 to disengage from the abutment with the clamping member 7, so that the operating member 3 can be disengaged from the abutment with the clamping member 7 by moving upward, so that the clamping member 7 automatically moves to the unlocking posture under the action of the biasing member 10, and the operation is simpler and more convenient.

[0119] The above description and embodiments are intended to explain the scope of protection of the present invention, but do not constitute a limitation thereto. Modifications, equivalent substitutions, or other improvements to the embodiments of the present invention or portions thereof that can be obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art through logical analysis, reasoning, or limited experimentation based on the teachings of the present invention or the above embodiments, combined with common knowledge, ordinary technical knowledge in the field, and / or prior art, should all be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
