The axis of the fixing base 30 passes through a through hole 31, and the fixing member 20 passes through the through hole 31 and is locked in the inner wall of the base body 10, so that the fixing base 30 and the base body 10 are combined and fixed by the fixing member 20. On an outward end surface of the fixed base 30, an inner annular wall 32, an intermittent annular wall 33 and an outer annular wall 34 are concentrically arranged from the inside to the outside. The through hole 31 is located at the center of the inner annular wall 32. The intermittent annular wall 33 surrounds the outer circumference of the inner annular wall 32 and is separated by a distance. The intermittent annular wall 33 has a plurality of spaced-apart broken walls 331 and a plurality of variable grooves 332 located between the two broken walls 331. The variable grooves 332 extend axially. A base tooth pattern 333 is formed on the inner side surface of each broken wall 331. The outer annular wall 34 surrounds the outer circumference of the intermittent annular wall 33 and is separated by a distance. A surrounding base inclined surface 341 is formed on the inner side surface of the outer annular wall 34. The outer annular wall 34 has a plurality of axially extending and spaced-apart accommodating grooves 342.
[0051] See also Figures 1 to 5The rotating clamp seat 40 has a C-shaped clamping portion 41 at one end, and a clamping ring wall 42 and an urging ring wall 43 concentrically arranged from the inside to the outside at the other end.

[0053] See also Figures 1 to 5 The positioning seat 60 is placed in the chamber 111 of the seat body 10 to close one end of the chamber 111. The axis of the positioning seat 60 has a through hole 61 for the plug-in portion 521 of the switching valve 50 to pass through. The outward end of the positioning seat 60 has a receiving groove 62.
[0054] See also Figures 1 to 5 The control button 70 is arranged at one end of the seat body 10. The axial position of one end of the control button 70 forms a plug-in groove 71 corresponding to the cross-section of the plug-in portion 521 of the switching valve 50 and an annular groove 72 located around the outer periphery of the plug-in groove 71. The annular groove 72 has a first water outlet positioning point 731, a first double water outlet positioning point 732, a second water outlet positioning point 733 and a second double water outlet positioning point 734 at equal angles. The plug-in groove 71 is for the plug-in portion 521 to be inserted and connected and moved simultaneously, so that when the control button 70 is rotated by external force, the valve shaft 52 of the switching valve 50 is synchronously driven to rotate. An indicating convex portion 74 radially protrudes on the outer circumference of the control button 70.
[0055] See also Figures 1 to 5The locking unit 80 has a screw 81 and a decorative cover 82. The screw 81 penetrates into the control button 70 from the outside and is screwed and locked with the internal thread 522 of the switching valve 50.

[0056] See also Figures 1 to 5 The positioning unit 90 is disposed between the positioning seat 60 and the control button 70 to position the rotation angle of the control button 70. The positioning unit 90 has a spring 91 and a sliding body 92. The spring 91 is disposed in the receiving groove 62 of the positioning seat 60, and the sliding body 92 is located between the receiving groove 62 of the positioning seat 60 and the annular groove 72 of the control button 70.
[0057] Therefore, the above is an introduction to the components and assembly methods of a water distributor 100 with a rotating clamp provided by a preferred embodiment of the utility model, and then its use characteristics are introduced as follows:
[0058] First, before using the utility model, Fig.14 As shown, the water inlet pipe 12 of the utility model is combined with a water pipe 1 fixed on the wall, so that the user can screw a fixed top shower 2 with the first external thread 131 of the first water outlet pipe 13, and then clamp a handheld shower head 3 on the clamping portion 41 of the rotating clamp 40, and screw the handheld shower head 3 with the second external thread 141 of the second water outlet pipe 14.
[0059] When the user uses the utility model, he can slightly apply force to the handheld shower head 2 to rotate it according to actual personal needs, such as according to different heights, body shapes or desired spraying parts, so that the rotating clamping seat 40 is subjected to external rotational force, so that the clamping seat teeth 421 of the rotating clamping seat 40 and the base teeth 333 of the fixed base 30 will slightly slide. The sliding is due to the fact that the broken walls 331 at the location of the base teeth 333 have a deformation groove 332, so that the deformation groove 332 provides a deformation space, so that the external Under the rotational force, the broken walls 331 will be slightly expanded, thereby causing a slight sliding between the clamp seat teeth 421 and the base teeth 333, so that the rotating clamp seat 40 can be rotated relative to the fixed base 30 until the handheld shower head 2 is rotated to a suitable angular position. When the external rotational force disappears, the clamp seat teeth 421 and the base teeth 333 are meshed again and cannot rotate by themselves, so as to position the handheld shower head 2 at this time.
[0060] Therefore, the utility model can not only be used for clamping the handheld shower head, but also can be rotated and positioned by the user, so as to be suitable for many users of different heights, body shapes and usage habits, making the utility model more applicable. Moreover, since the utility model has fewer parts, the material cost is lower, the assembly is easier and faster, and the subsequent replacement of parts is also quite simple and easy to do by yourself, so that the overall manufacturing cost is reduced and the market competitiveness can be improved.
[0061] Next, when the user wants to use the fixed top shower 2 to discharge water, the user first rotates the control button 70 upward, so that the sliding body 92 of the positioning unit 90 slides along the annular groove 72 of the control button 70 to the first water outlet positioning point 731 (such as Figure 6 ), to locate the rotation angle of the control button 70 at this time, and at this time the indicating protrusion 74 on the control button 70 is in an upward state, and the control button 70 synchronously drives the valve shaft 52 of the switching valve 50 to rotate, so that the notch 523 corresponds to the position of the first water diversion hole 512 (as shown in FIG. Figure 7 As shown in FIG. 1 ). In this way, the water entering the seat body 10 will enter the switching valve 50 through the water inlet holes 511, and then flow to the first water outlet pipe 13 through the gap 523 and the first water diversion hole 512 (as shown in FIG. 1 ). Fig.10 As shown), and flows out from the fixed top sprinkler 2.
[0062] When the user wants to use the handheld showerhead 3 to discharge water, the control button 70 is first rotated downward, so that the sliding body 92 of the positioning unit 90 slides along the annular groove 72 to the second water outlet positioning point 733 to locate the rotation angle of the control button 70. At this time, the indicating protrusion 74 on the control button 70 is in a downward state, and the control button 70 synchronously drives the valve shaft 52 of the switching valve 50 to rotate, so that the notch 523 corresponds to the position of the second water diversion hole 513 (such as Figure 8 As shown in FIG. 1 ). In this way, the water entering the seat body 10 will enter the switching valve 50 through the water inlet hole 511, and then flow to the second water outlet pipe 14 through the notch 523 and the second water diversion hole 513 (as shown in FIG. 1 ). Fig.12 As shown) and flows out from the handheld shower head 3.
[0063] Therefore, since the control button 70 of the present invention is provided with an indicating protrusion 74, when the indicating protrusion 74 points upward to the first water outlet pipe, water is discharged from the fixed top sprinkler, and when the indicating protrusion 74 points downward to the second water outlet pipe, water is discharged from the handheld shower head, thereby reducing the user's misjudgment of the water outlet position. In addition, when the control button is rotated upward, water is discharged from the fixed top sprinkler located above, and when the control button is rotated downward, water is discharged from the handheld shower head located below, which makes the user's operation simpler and clearer, more intuitive, and less prone to error.
[0064] When the user wants to discharge water from the fixed shower head 2 and the handheld shower head 3 at the same time, the user first rotates the control button 70 to make the sliding body 92 of the positioning unit 90 slide along the annular groove 72 to the first double water outlet positioning point 732 to locate the rotation angle of the control button 70, and the control button 70 synchronously drives the valve shaft 52 of the switching valve 50 to rotate so that the notch 523 corresponds to the position of the first water diversion hole 512 and the second water diversion hole 513 at the same time (such as Fig. 9 As shown in FIG. 1 ). In this way, the water entering the seat body 10 will enter the switching valve 50 through the water inlet hole 511, and then flow out of the first water outlet pipe 13 through the notch 523 and the first water diversion hole 512, and flow out of the second water outlet pipe 14 through the notch 523 and the second water diversion hole 513 (as shown in FIG. 1 ). Fig.11 As shown), water can be discharged from the fixed top shower 2 and the handheld shower head 3 at the same time.
[0065] In addition, when the control knob 70 is rotated and the sliding body 92 of the positioning unit 90 slides along the annular groove 72 to the second dual water outlet positioning point 734, the effect of simultaneously discharging water from the first water outlet pipe 13 (fixed top shower) and the second water outlet pipe 14 (handheld shower head) can be achieved. Fig.13 shown.
[0066] The above disclosure is only the preferred embodiment provided by the present utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of implementation of the present utility model. All non-substantial improvements made by relevant technical personnel in this technical field based on the present utility model should fall within the scope covered by the present utility model.
