The first water inlet pipe 431, the second water inlet pipe 432, and the mixing water pipe 433 are thus fluidly connected to the valve core 42 in the valve seat 41. The valve core 42 can receive hot water and cold water from the first water inlet pipe 431 and the second water inlet pipe 432. The valve core 42 controls the mixing ratio of the hot water and the cold water through the handle assembly 44 to form mixed water, and the mixed water is controlled by the valve core 42 to enter the mixing water pipe 433. The first water inlet pipe 431, the second water inlet pipe 432, and the mixing water pipe 433 hang down from the lower end of the valve seat 41 and are arranged to extend from top to bottom.
[0038] The fixing base 3 has a cylindrical tube structure. An accommodating concave platform 31 is formed at the upper end of the fixing base 3. The lower end of the valve seat 41 can be inserted and spliced into the accommodating concave platform 31. At this time, the valve seat 41 and the accommodating concave platform 31 are axially spliced. The lower end of the fixing base 3 includes a button 32. Specifically, the lower end of the fixing base 3 includes a cantilever 33, and the button 32 is arranged on the cantilever 33. The button 32 can be pressed down by means of the cantilever 33.

[0039] The mounting base 11 includes a buckling component 111. The lower end of the first housing 21 can be sleeved outside the mounting base 11. The lower end of the first housing 21 includes the buckling hole 211. When the fixing base 3 is installed into the first housing 21, the first housing 21 can be sleeved outside the mounting base 11 from top to bottom, and the buckling component 111 can be correspondingly buckled to the buckling hole 211.
[0040] The lower end of the fixing base 3 abuts against the upper end of the mounting base 11. Therefore, the valve seat 41, the fixing base 3 and the mounting base 11 are axially abutted in sequence.
[0041] Through the cantilever 33, the button 32 can be pressed by an external force to move radially inwards. The button 32 is used to push the buckling component 111 to move radially to leave the buckling hole. The buckling component 111 can elastically deform and rotate around its own lower end. The buckling component 111 includes a buckling convex block 1111. The outer side of the upper end of the buckling component 111 includes a fitting notch 1112. The cantilever 33 can elastically deform and rotate around its own upper end. The lower end of the cantilever 33 is correspondingly fitted into the fitting notch 1112. When the button 32 on the cantilever 33 is pressed by an external force to rotate radially inwards, the lower end of the cantilever 33 pushes the upper end of the buckling component 111 to move radially inwards so that the buckling convex block 1111 leaves the buckling hole 211. In this embodiment, the buckling hole 211 and the button hole 212 are arranged side by side up and down.
[0042] The mounting base 11 includes a seat body 112 and a connecting card sleeve 113. The connecting card sleeve 113 is sleeved outside the seat body 112, and the first housing 21 is detachably connected to the connecting card sleeve 113.

The connecting ferrule 113 includes the buckle member 111. The buckle member 111 can elastically deform radially to correspondingly extend into or out of the notch groove 1121.
[0044] The seat body 112 includes a middle through hole 1122 for passing through the first water inlet pipe 431, the second water inlet pipe 432 and the mixing water pipe 433. The locking assembly 12 includes a stud 121, a moving member 122 and an abutting member 123. The stud 121 is operably rotatably arranged on the mounting seat 11. The moving member 122 is screwed on the stud 121. When the stud 121 rotates, the moving member 122 can move up and down along the stud 121 to correspondingly abut against the lower side of the tabletop. The locking assembly 12 further includes a plug 124 and two guide pins 125. The plug 124 is located below the mounting seat 11. The two guide pins 125 are connected between the plug 124 and the mounting seat 11. The moving member 122 is slidably arranged on the two guide pins 125. The abutting member 123 includes two rotating rods 1231. The rotating rods 1231 are respectively rotatably connected to both sides of the moving member 122. The rotation center of the rotating rod 1231 deviates from its middle position. Therefore, the rotating rod 1231 will droop under the action of gravity. When the upper end of the rotating rod 1231 abuts against the lower side of the tabletop, it will correspondingly rotate until the whole rod body abuts against the lower side of the tabletop. This is a conventional structure and will not be elaborated here. The upper end of the stud 121 includes a connection interface 1212. The connection interface 1212 is an internal hexagonal hole. The connection interface 1212 is located above the mounting seat 11. Therefore, the user can directly operate above the tabletop to realize the connection between the locking assembly 12 and the tabletop. The tabletop is clamped between the mounting panel and the locking assembly 12.
[0045] Since the fixed seat 3 is a cylindrical tubular structure and the seat body 112 includes a middle through hole 1122, when the fixed seat 3 and the mounting seat 11 abut against each other axially, a pipe-passing space 6 will be formed between the fixed seat 3 and the mounting seat 11. The first water inlet pipe 431, the second water inlet pipe 432, the mixing water pipe 433 and the water outlet pipe 5 can all pass through the perforation space and pass out from the lower end of the mounting seat 11 to the space under the table.
[0046] When the lower end of the valve seat 41 abuts against the upper end of the fixed seat 3, a notch 7 is formed, and the notch 7 communicates with the pipe-passing space 6. The notch 7 is provided corresponding to the inlet of the second housing 22. In this embodiment, the notch 7 includes a first relief portion 71 and a second relief portion 72. The lower end of the valve seat 41 includes the first relief portion 71, and the fixed seat 3 includes the second relief portion 72. The first relief portion 71 is a groove wall provided on the lower end of the valve seat 41, and the bottom of the groove wall extends towards the inlet of the second housing 22. The second relief portion 72 is in the shape of a through groove. One end of the water outlet pipe 5 is connected to the water outlet head 9, and the other end extends along the second housing 22 and enters the first housing 21. When the water outlet pipe 5 is abutted by the groove wall, it will bend towards the pipe-passing space 6 and finally pass out from the lower end of the seat body 112.
[0047] The water outlet pipe 5 is connected to the mixing water pipe 433. Specifically, a connection joint 8 is provided, and the connection joint 8 is respectively connected to the water outlet pipe 5 and the mixing water pipe 433.
[0048] During the installation process, one end of the water outlet pipe 5 is connected to the water outlet head 9, and the other end of the water outlet pipe 5 passes through the second housing 22 and enters the first housing 21, and passes out from the lower end of the first housing 21. The fixed seat 3 is inserted into the lower end of the first housing 21, so that the other end of the water outlet pipe 5 is inserted into the fixed seat 3 from top to bottom, so that the button 32 is correspondingly embedded in the button hole 212 and protrudes from the button hole 212. The valve seat 41 is installed above the first housing 21 from top to bottom, so that the groove wall corresponds to the water outlet pipe 5, so that the water outlet pipe 5 bends, so that the first water inlet pipe 431, the second water inlet pipe 432 and the mixing water pipe 433 all pass through the fixed seat 3. The valve core 42 and the handle assembly 44 are then connected in sequence. The on-table installation assembly 1 is installed on the tabletop, and the first housing 21 is correspondingly sleeved on the mounting seat 11 from top to bottom, so that the buckle member 111 is buckled with the buckle hole 211. Finally, the connection joint 8 is respectively connected to the water outlet pipe 5 and the mixing water pipe 433. When disassembly is required, pressing the button 32 can achieve disassembly.
