[0033] In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for descriptive purposes, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, the features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features. In the description of the present utility model, "a plurality" means two or more, unless otherwise specifically defined.
[0034] Such as Figures 1-6As shown in the figure, a shower arm 1 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes: a mounting bracket 11, a water outlet pipe 12, and an angle fixing mechanism 13. The mounting bracket 11 has a mounting hole 111. The water outlet pipe 12 includes a first pipe body 121 and a second pipe body 122 that are fixedly connected in sequence. The second pipe body 122 passes through the mounting hole 111 and is rotatably connected to the mounting hole 111. The angle fixing mechanism 13 includes a pre-tightening assembly 131, a compression spring 132, and an axial limiting assembly 133. Among them, both the pre-tightening assembly 131 and the compression spring 132 are sleeved outside the first pipe body 121, and one end of the compression spring 132 abuts against the pre-tightening assembly 131, and the other end abuts against the mounting bracket 11. The pre-tightening assembly is used to cooperate with the first pipe body to compress or release the compression spring; the axial limiting assembly 133 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the second pipe body 122 and is used to limit the axial movement of the second pipe body 122.
