The rotating shaft extends in the vertical direction, and the water outlet pipe is adapted to penetrate through the rotating shaft and communicate with the water outlet, making full use of the internal space of the rotating shaft, and the structure is simple and compact.

[0023] In the seventh technical solution, the fixing sleeve is fixed on the tabletop, the shaft sleeve is fixed in the fixing sleeve, and the shaft sleeve is adapted to rotate relative to the rotating shaft and be fixed axially, so as to prevent the object placement member from moving axially relative to the fixing sleeve.

[0024] In the eighth technical solution, a rotation limiting groove is provided along the axial direction of the rotating shaft, and the shaft sleeve is adapted to be sleeved in the rotation limiting groove and rotate relative to the rotation limiting groove, so that the object to be placed rotates between a first position and a second position. This is a structure for realizing the rotation of the object to be placed relative to the tabletop within a certain angle, which is simple and compact.

[0025] In the ninth technical solution, the bathtub further includes a water inlet pipe and a water inlet valve. The water inlet end of the water inlet valve is communicated with the water inlet pipe, and the water outlet end of the water inlet valve is communicated with the water outlet pipe; thus, a water supply mode of the bathtub is formed, and the water inlet can be adjusted through the water inlet valve.

[0026] In the tenth technical solution, the bathtub includes a drain valve, a circulating water pipe and a water pump; the drain valve is arranged at the drain outlet of the bathtub and is used to control drainage; the water inlet end of the water pump is communicated with the drain valve through the circulating water pipe, and the water outlet end is communicated with the water outlet pipe. Therefore, by closing the drain valve and starting the water pump to pump the water in the bathtub to form circulating water, the water in the bathtub can be kept flowing, and the bathing experience is better.

[0071] Compared with the prior art, the present embodiment has the following beneficial effects:

[0072] In the present embodiment, the bathtub includes a bathtub body 1 and a placement member 2. The tabletop 11 of the bathtub body 1 extends along the length direction of the bathtub body 1. The placement member 2 is rotatably connected to the tabletop 11 and is adapted to dock at any position between the first position and the second position. In the first position, the placement member 2 is located on the tabletop 11 and the extension direction of the placement member 2 is the same as the extension direction of the tabletop 11. In the second position, the extension direction of the placement member 2 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the tabletop 11. Thus, the placement member 2 can rotate relative to the tabletop 11 between the first position and the second position. Compared with the prior art, when the user takes a bath, the placement member 2 can be rotated to the second position, and electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablets can be placed on the placement member 2 to watch or books to read or beverages, etc., improving the bathing experience; when not in use, the placement member 2 is rotated back to dock at the first position, which is simple to operate; and when not in use, the placement member 2 docks at the first position, which is located on the tabletop 11 and has the same extension direction as the tabletop 11. Therefore, the combination degree of the placement member 2 and the bathtub is relatively high, and the overall appearance is simple and beautiful.

[0073] In the present embodiment, the main body includes a support surface 212 and a stop bracket 24. When the stop bracket 24 rotates relative to the main body to the rotation position, it is inclined relative to the support surface 212 to support the back of the object. Thus, when the stop bracket 24 rotates to the rotation position, on the one hand, when the object is placed on the support surface 212, the lower end of the object abuts against the support surface 212, and the back abuts against the stop member, and the support surface 212 and the stop member jointly play a role in fixing the object. On the other hand, the inclination angle when the object abuts against the stop member can be adjusted to better adapt to the change of the viewing angle. Further, the stop bracket 24 and the main body are connected by a damping hinge, so that when the stop baffle rotates relative to the main body, it can hover at any rotation angle within the rotation range between the support surface 212 and the rotation position.

[0074] In this embodiment, the bathtub further includes a water outlet pipe 3. The placement object 2 is provided with a water outlet 2211 communicating with the water outlet pipe 3, so that the placement object 2 also has the function of discharging water. When the placement object 2 is docked at the first position, the water outlet 2211 faces the cavity of the bathtub body 1, so that the water outlet 2211 can discharge water into the bathtub at any position between the first position and the second position.

[0075] In this embodiment, the placement object 2 is provided with a rotating shaft 223 adapted to be rotatably connected to the tabletop 11. The rotating shaft 223 extends in the vertical direction, and the water outlet pipe 3 is adapted to penetrate through the rotating shaft 223 and communicate with the water outlet 2211, making full use of the internal space of the rotating shaft 223 and having a simple and compact structure.

[0076] In this embodiment, the fixed sleeve 12 is fixed on the tabletop 11, and the bush 224 is fixed in the fixed sleeve 12. The bush 224 is adapted to rotate relative to the rotating shaft 223 and be axially fixed relative thereto, thereby preventing the placement object 2 from moving axially relative to the fixed sleeve 12.

[0077] In this embodiment, the rotating shaft 223 is axially provided with a rotation-limiting groove 2231. The bush 224 is adapted to be sleeved in the rotation-limiting groove 2231 and rotate relative to the rotation-limiting groove 2231, so that the placement object 2 rotates between the first position and the second position. This is a structure for realizing the rotation of the placement object 2 relative to the tabletop 11 within a certain angle, which is simple and compact.

[0078] In this embodiment, the bathtub includes an inlet passage having a thermostatic valve 4, a circulating water path having a water pump 9, and an electronic drain valve 5. Among them, the thermostatic valve 4 can be opened and closed to cut off and supply water, and the water temperature of the outlet water can be maintained at an appropriate level by adjusting the water intake of the cold water inlet pipe and the hot water inlet pipe. By starting the water pump 9 to pump the water in the bathtub to form circulating water, the water in the bathtub can be kept flowing, providing a better bathing experience.

[0079] In this embodiment, the control panel 10 facilitates the user to operate to adjust and control the water intake and / or drainage.
