In this embodiment, an annular convex rib 520 is provided at the bottom of the upper sealing ring 500, and the annular convex rib 520 extends into the water inlet channel 3211 of the valve body 320. The outer wall of the annular convex rib 520 abuts against the inner wall of the water inlet channel 3211 to increase the abutment area between the upper sealing ring 500 and the valve body 320, further enhance the sealing between the upper sealing ring 500 and the valve body 320, and prevent liquid from passing through the gap between the bottom surface of the upper sealing ring 500 and the top surface of the valve body 320. In order to quickly install and position the upper sealing ring 500 during installation, in this embodiment, a slot 313 facing the water inlet channel 3211 is provided on the valve cover 310, and a plug-in column 510 is provided on the upper sealing ring 500.
