The water passage 1 is used to connect the first water inlet 2 and the second water inlet 3 to make the water channels of the two parts communicate with each other. The water passage 1 is provided with a water passage extending along a first direction 81 and passing through the water passage 1.
[0068] The first water inlet 2 is provided with a mixing chamber 21 and a first water inlet 22. The mixing chamber 21 is adapted to connect the first water inlet 22 and one end of the water passage; and is provided with a second water inlet 31 which is connected to the other end of the water passage and is arranged at intervals along the first direction 81 with the first water inlet 22. One of the first water inlet 22 and the second water inlet 31 is adapted to connect to a cold water pipe, and the other of the first water inlet 22 and the second water inlet 31 is adapted to connect to a hot water pipe. The mixing chamber 21 is adapted to install a temperature valve 30 so that the cold and hot water in the first water inlet 22 and the second water inlet 31 are mixed and then output through the temperature valve 30.
[0069] The first water inlet 2 is adapted to slide with the water passage 1 along the first direction 81, so that the distance between the first water inlet 22 and the second water inlet 31 along the first direction 81 changes. When the distance between the cold water pipe and the hot water pipe along the first direction 81 is different from the design due to processing errors, the first water inlet 2 and the second water inlet 3 can be adapted to the cold water pipe and the hot water pipe on the wall within the adjustment range. Compared with the prior art, this method can have a wider adjustment range.
[0070] The second water inlet 3 is connected to the water passing part 1, and is flexible so that the second water inlet 31 is suitable for bending along the vertical direction 82 perpendicular to the first direction 81, so that the distance between the first water inlet 22 and the second water inlet 31 along the vertical direction 82 can be changed. When the vertical distance between the cold water pipe and the hot water pipe is different from the design due to processing errors, the first water inlet 2 and the second water inlet 3 can be adapted to the cold water pipe and the hot water pipe on the wall within the adjustment range. Similarly, the second water inlet 3 can also adjust the distance in the left-right direction or the distance in the front-back direction accordingly.
[0071] In this embodiment, the water-passing member 1 is provided with a first limiting surface 111 and a third limiting surface 121 which are perpendicular to the first direction 81 and are away from each other, and the first water-inlet member 2 is provided with a second limiting surface 231 which is opposite to the first limiting surface 111 and a fourth limiting surface 232 which is opposite to the third limiting surface 121. The first limiting surface 111 and the second limiting surface 231 are suitable for abutting against each other, and the third limiting surface 121 and the fourth limiting surface 232 are suitable for abutting against each other to prevent the first water-inlet member 2 from being separated from the water-passing member 1 during adjustment or under the action of hydraulic force. When the first water-inlet member 2 is adjusted along the first direction 81, there may be a gap between the first limiting surface 111 and the second limiting surface 231, and between the third limiting surface 121 and the fourth limiting surface 232.
[0072] In this embodiment, since the first water inlet member 2 and the water overflow member 1 need to achieve sliding and position limiting, they need to be processed by separate manufacturing.
[0073] The water passing member 1 includes a first water passing member 11 and a second water passing member 12, wherein the first water passing member 11 is provided with a first limiting surface 111 and a third limiting surface 121; the first water inlet member 2 includes a first member 23 and a second member 24; the first member 23 is provided with a first water channel penetrating the first member 23 along a first direction 81; the first member 23 is provided with a second limiting surface 231 and a fourth limiting surface 232; the first water passing member 11 is suitable for being placed in the first water channel from one end of the first water channel and extending from the other end of the first water channel to be connected with the second water passing member 12; the second member 24 is provided with a second water channel and a first water inlet channel 22, and the second water channel and the first water channel jointly form a mixing chamber 21, thereby achieving assembly, wherein the first water passing member 11 and the second water passing member 12 can be selected in a detachable connection mode or a non-detachable connection mode, and the same is true for the first member 23 and the second member 24. The detachable connection mode can be selected by screw connection, etc., and the non-detachable connection mode can be selected by glue bonding, etc.
[0074] In this embodiment, the first water inlet member 2 is also provided with a water passage chamber 241 and a sensing hole. The water passage chamber 241 is connected with the water outlet end of the mixing chamber 21, so that the temperature-adjusted water enters the water passage chamber 241. The water passage chamber 241 is suitable for installing a hydroelectric generator 40, so as to realize hydroelectric power generation after the subsequent installation of the hydroelectric generator 40. The sensing hole is connected with the water passage chamber 241, and the sensing hole is suitable for installing a temperature sensing component, so as to realize the temperature measurement function of the water passage chamber 241 after the subsequent installation of the temperature sensing component.

The water circuit member 4 is detachably connected to the first water inlet member 2; users can replace different water circuit members 4 according to different needs to realize different functions.
[0076] In this embodiment, since the shower connector 5 is usually placed in the middle, due to the different number or setting positions of the installation cavity 41, the shower connector 5 cannot be located in the middle after being assembled with the water outlet channel 411 of the installation cavity 41. In this solution, a water outlet seat 6 is added, and the two ends of the water outlet seat 6 are detachably connected to the water outlet channel 411 of a mounting cavity 41 and the shower connector 5, respectively. The user can replace the water outlet seat 6 according to the product type to make the shower connector 5 located in the middle. For manufacturers, there is no need to open a new set of water channel molds or open multiple new molds for the shower connector 5 and the water outlet seat 6 as a whole. It is only necessary to open a set of molds for the water outlet seat 6 corresponding to products with different structures, thereby reducing mold costs.
[0077] In this embodiment, when the user does not need the corresponding water outlet function, the user can plug the corresponding installation cavity 41 with the plug 70 without replacing the corresponding components. For the manufacturer, there is no need to open a new mold, thus reducing the mold cost.
