Detailed Implementation

[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the embodiments of this application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0031] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0032] It should be understood that the phrase "one embodiment" or "an embodiment" throughout the specification means that a specific feature, structure, or characteristic related to the embodiment is included in at least one embodiment of the present invention. Therefore, "in one embodiment" or "in an embodiment" appearing throughout the specification do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. Furthermore, these specific features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.

[0033] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a concealed valve box according to an embodiment of this application. The concealed valve box 000 may include: a box body 100 and at least one adjusting and locking assembly 200.

[0034] The bottom edge of the housing 100 may have connection holes 101. For example, the bottom edge of the housing 100 may have a connection platform 103, in which the connection holes 101 may be distributed.

[0035] Each adjusting locking assembly 200 includes an adjusting member 201 and a fixing member 202. At least a portion of the adjusting member 201 may be located within the connecting hole 101 and is kinetically connected to the housing 100. The adjusting member 201 is movably connected to one end of the fixing member 202, and the other end of the fixing member 202 may be used for fastening to the target wall A.

[0036] The adjusting member 201 can be used to drive the bottom edge of the box 100 to move relative to the adjusting member along the central axis L of the adjusting member 201, so as to adjust the distance between the bottom edge of the box and the target wall A. It should be noted that the extending direction of the connecting hole 101 can be parallel to the extending direction of the central axis L of the adjusting member 201.

[0037] In this embodiment, an adjusting member 201, which is pulsatorically connected to the box 100, is provided in the connection hole 101 of the box 100. This adjusting member 201 is used to move the bottom edge of the box 100 relative to the adjusting member 201 along its central axis extension direction, thereby adjusting the distance between the box 100 and the target wall A. This achieves the leveling operation of the concealed valve box on an inclined target wall. The fixing member 202 is securely connected to the target wall A, ensuring stable connection of both the box and the adjusting locking assembly to the target wall A. Thus, the horizontal height of the concealed valve box 000 can be adjusted simply by manipulating the adjusting member 201, without the need for complex and numerous tools. This simplifies operation, reduces labor costs, and better adapts to different wall depths and levels.

[0038] For example, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , Figure 2This is an installation effect diagram provided in an embodiment of this application when the target wall groove depth is consistent. Figure 3 This is an installation effect diagram showing an inconsistent depth of the target wall groove provided in an embodiment of this application. From Figure 2 and Figure 3 It can be seen that the horizontal installation level of the concealed valve box can be adjusted by adjusting the locking component 200.

[0039] In summary, this application provides a concealed valve box, which may include a box body and at least one adjusting and locking assembly. An adjusting member, which is throttledly connected to the box body through a connection hole, is used to control the movement of the adjusting member. This drives the bottom edge of the box body to move relative to the adjusting member along its central axis, thereby adjusting the distance between the box body and the target wall. This achieves leveling of the concealed valve box on an inclined target wall. A fixing member securely connects to the target wall, stably connecting both the box body and the adjusting and locking assembly to the target wall. Thus, the horizontal height of the concealed valve box can be adjusted simply by manipulating the adjusting member, without the need for complex and numerous tools. This simplifies operation, reduces labor costs, and better adapts to different wall depths and levels.

[0040] Optional, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of another concealed valve box provided in this application embodiment. The box body 100 has a first transmission limiting member 102 fixed on the inner side wall of the connection hole 101. At least a portion of the adjusting member 201 can be located inside the connection hole 101, and its outer side can have a second transmission limiting member 201a that cooperates with the first transmission limiting member 102 in the connection hole 101 for transmission. The adjusting member 201 is rotatably connected to one end of the fixing member 202, and the other end of the fixing member 202 can be used to fasten to the target wall A.

[0041] The adjusting member 201 can be configured to rotate about the central axis L of the adjusting member 201, so as to drive the bottom edge of the box body 100 to move along the extension direction of the central axis L of the adjusting member 201 through the cooperation of the first transmission limiting member 102 in the connecting hole 101 and the second transmission limiting member 201a in the adjusting member 201.

[0042] In this configuration, a first transmission limiting member 102 is provided in the connection hole 101 of the housing 100. The adjusting member 201 is inserted into the connection hole 101 and is provided with a second transmission limiting member 201a that cooperates with the first transmission limiting member 102. The fixing member 202 is securely connected to the target wall A and can restrict the degree of freedom of movement of the adjusting member 201. In this way, the horizontal height of the concealed valve box 000 can be adjusted simply by rotating the adjusting member 201 without the need for complex and numerous tools. This simplifies the operation, reduces labor costs, and better adapts to different wall depths and levels.

[0043] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, the concealed valve box 000 can contain multiple adjusting locking components 200, which can be distributed around the bottom edge of the box body 100. It should be noted that when there are multiple adjusting locking components 200, the box body 100 can also contain multiple connecting holes 101, each corresponding to one of the adjusting locking components 200. Thus, by installing multiple adjusting locking components 200 in the bottom edge region of the box body 100, the multiple adjusting locking components 200 can be adjusted to different positions on the bottom edge of the box body 100, improving the adjustment flexibility of the concealed valve box.

[0044] There are multiple possible implementations for the first transmission limiting member 102 and the second transmission limiting member 201a. This application embodiment illustrates the following two possible implementations as examples:

[0045] For the first optional implementation method, please refer to... Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a partial structural schematic diagram of a concealed valve box provided in an embodiment of this application. The first transmission limiting member 102, disposed in the connecting hole 101, includes a multi-ring internal thread B1, and the second transmission limiting member 201a in the adjusting member 201 may include a multi-ring external thread B2, with the internal thread B1 meshing with the external thread B2. Thus, during the rotation of the adjusting member 201, the engagement of the internal and external threads drives the box body 100 along the central axis of the adjusting member 201, that is, the concealed valve box 000 can move in a direction close to or away from the target wall A.

[0046] In a second optional implementation, the first transmission limiting member 102 disposed in the connecting hole 101 includes at least one guide post (not shown in the figure), and the second transmission limiting member 201a in the adjusting member 201 includes at least one spiral guide hole. One end of the guide post is movably embedded in the spiral guide hole. Thus, during the rotation of the adjusting member 201, the guide post can move within the spiral guide hole through the cooperation between the spiral guide hole and the guide post, thereby achieving the movement drive of the housing 100.

[0047] Optional, such as Figure 5 As shown, the adjusting member 201 may include an adjusting member body C1 and a gripping part C2 connected to each other. At least a portion of the adjusting member body C1 may be located within the connecting hole 101 of the housing 100 and has a first transmission limiting member 102. The gripping part C2 may be located outside the connecting hole 101. In this way, the gripping part C2 outside the connecting hole 101 allows the operator to easily operate the adjusting member 201, improving the user experience.

[0048] In this application, as Figure 5 As shown, the bottom of the adjusting body C1 can have a gap Z between it and the target wall A. Here, the bottom of the adjusting body C1 is the end of the adjusting body C1 that is away from the gripping part C2. In this way, by setting a gap Z of a certain width between the bottom of the adjusting body C1 and the target wall A, the frictional resistance between the adjusting part 201 and the target wall A when rotating can be effectively reduced.

[0049] Optional, such as Figure 5 As shown, the adjusting member 201 may have auxiliary connecting holes k1 distributed along the axial direction of the adjusting member 201. The first end of the fixing member 202 can pass through the auxiliary connecting hole k1 and be fastened to the target wall A. The outer diameter of the second end of the fixing member 202 is larger than the inner diameter of the auxiliary connecting hole k1, and can contact the top of the adjusting member 201. The adjusting member 201 can be rotatably connected to the fixing member 202 through the auxiliary connecting hole k1. In this way, after the fixing member 202 passes through the auxiliary connecting hole k1 and is fastened to the target wall A, it is ensured that the adjusting locking assembly 200 stably fixes the box 100 to the target wall A without interfering with the rotation of the adjusting member 201.

[0050] In this application, as Figure 5 As shown, the fastener 202 may include a limiting head D1 and a connecting rod D2. The outer diameter of the limiting head D1 may be larger than the outer diameter of the connecting rod D2 and may be larger than the inner diameter of the auxiliary connecting hole k1. The connecting rod D2 may be threadedly connected to the target wall A.

[0051] The limiting head D1 and the connecting rod D2 can be an integral structure. In this way, after the adjusting component 201 and the box 100 are installed, the connecting rod D2 in the fixing component 202 is passed through the auxiliary connecting hole k1 and then fastened to the target wall A.

[0052] Alternatively, in another feasible approach, the limiting head D1 and the connecting rod D2 are detachably connected. In this case, the connecting rod D2 can be first securely connected to the target wall A, the adjusting member 201 can be fitted onto the connecting rod D2 through the auxiliary connecting hole k1, and then the limiting head D1 can be connected to the connecting rod D2. For example, the limiting head D1 and the connecting rod D2 can be detachably connected by a snap-fit ​​mechanism.

[0053] In summary, this application provides a concealed valve box, which may include a box body and at least one adjusting and locking assembly. An adjusting member, which is throttledly connected to the box body through a connection hole, is used to control the movement of the adjusting member. This drives the bottom edge of the box body to move relative to the adjusting member along its central axis, thereby adjusting the distance between the box body and the target wall. This achieves leveling of the concealed valve box on an inclined target wall. A fixing member securely connects to the target wall, stably connecting both the box body and the adjusting and locking assembly to the target wall. Thus, the horizontal height of the concealed valve box can be adjusted simply by manipulating the adjusting member, without the need for complex and numerous tools. This simplifies operation, reduces labor costs, and better adapts to different wall depths and levels.

[0054] This application embodiment also provides a concealed valve, which may include: a concealed valve box 000, and a valve body (not shown in the figure) installed in the concealed valve box 000. For example, the concealed valve may also include: an operation button or knob connected to the valve body, so that the user can control the water flow and water temperature by operating the operation button.

[0055] In this application, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. The term "multiple" refers to two or more unless otherwise expressly defined.

[0056] The above description is merely an optional embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
