[0022] Specifically, the adjusting valve seat 2 is arranged at the water inlet of the shell 1, and the adjusting valve seat 2 is provided with an adjusting flow channel 21 communicated to the water outlet, so that the adjusting channel communicates the water inlet and the water outlet of the adjusting valve seat 2, and meets the flow adjustment requirement. At this time, the adjusting hole 22 is also arranged on the adjusting valve seat 2, and the adjusting hole 22 is communicated with the adjusting flow channel 21, which provides conditions for controlling the size of the adjusting flow channel 21 through the structure in the adjusting hole 22 subsequently. In addition, the adjusting screw 3 is screw-installed in the adjusting hole 22 and one end extends into the adjusting flow channel 21, that is, the operator can adjust the size of the adjusting flow channel 21 by screwing the adjusting screw 3, so as to meet the water inflow flow adjustment requirement. And the fixing screw 4 is screw-installed at the hole opening of the adjusting hole 22, and the hole opening of the adjusting hole 22 is blocked by the fixing screw 4, and at the same time, the gasket 5 is arranged between the fixing screw 4 and the adjusting valve seat 2, so as to realize the sealing of the hole opening of the adjusting hole 22, and the safety and sealing performance are better.

[0023] More specifically, the adjusting rod 6 is installed on the fixing screw 4, so that the operator can rotate the fixing screw 4 through the adjusting rod 6. At this time, a concave ball bowl 41 is arranged at the center of the head of the fixing screw 4, and a plurality of limiting grooves 42 that communicate with the ball bowl 41 are arranged on the head of the fixing screw 4 in the radial direction. The limiting grooves 42 can realize the corresponding of the fixing screw 4 in multiple directions in the circumferential direction, so that the adjusting rod 6 can be adjusted to another limiting groove 42 after being rotated to a certain angle, and the fixing screw 4 can be continuously rotated. In addition, one end of the adjusting rod 6 is a ball head 61 and is installed in the ball bowl 41, so that one end of the ball head 61 of the adjusting rod 6 and the ball bowl 41 on the head of the fixing screw 4 form a universal joint structure, which can adapt to the deflection of the adjusting rod 6 in multiple directions on the fixing screw 4, and provide conditions for the subsequent adjusting rod 6 to be clamped into different limiting grooves 42. In use, the adjusting rod 6 is selectively clamped into a limiting groove 42, and the operator rotates the fixing screw 4 through the adjusting rod 6 as a handle. When the adjusting rod 6 is rotated to a predetermined angle, the fixing screw 4 can be continuously rotated by deflecting the adjusting rod 6 into another limiting groove 42, thereby avoiding the problem that the adjusting rod 6 cannot continuously rotate the fixing screw 4 due to the obstruction of the structure such as the top head and the water inlet on the shell 1, and better adapting to the small space operation requirement. In addition, the other end of the adjusting rod 6 is provided with a matching head 62, and a matching hole 31 corresponding to the matching head 62 is arranged on one end of the adjusting screw 3 close to the adjusting hole 22. The matching head 62 and the matching hole 31 can be matched with each other. For example, a plurality of limiting surfaces are arranged on the matching head 62, and the hole wall of the matching hole 31 has a plurality of matching surfaces corresponding to the limiting surfaces.

The adjusting rod 6 clamped into the two limiting grooves 42 is not affected by the limitation of the structure such as the top head and the water inlet, and can smoothly rotate the fixing screw 4. In addition, the problem of increasing the processing amount and reducing the structural strength caused by excessively arranging the limiting grooves 42 is avoided.

[0025] More specifically, the cross section of each limiting groove 42 is rectangular, so that the limiting groove 42 is a flat strip, and the cross section of the adjusting rod 6 is also rectangular, so that the adjusting rod 6 forms a flat strip structure, so that the adjusting rod 6 and the limiting groove 42 are mutually embedded, the adjusting rod 6 is easily clamped into the limiting groove 42, and in addition, the adjusting rod 6 can provide a larger holding area when used as a handle, facilitating the application of force. At the same time, the matching hole 31 is provided as a "one" shaped hole, that is, the matching hole 31 is a strip-shaped hole, which can better cooperate with the flat strip-shaped adjusting rod 6, that is, after the end of the adjusting rod 6 is inserted into the adjusting hole 22, it can be directly limited with the limiting groove 42, without the need for additional matching structure, simple structure, easy to process.
