[0035] like Figures 1 to 3 The image shows a preferred embodiment of the cleaning water tank of this utility model. The cleaning water tank includes a tank body 1, a suspension 2, a locking assembly 3, a water outlet assembly 4, a water supply pipe 5, and an auxiliary water outlet component 6.

[0036] The tank 1 is equipped with a fixing frame 11. Specifically, the fixing frame 11 includes a pair of fixing tubes 111 symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the tank 1, and each fixing tube 111 has multiple limiting grooves 1111 arranged at intervals along the vertical direction on its inner wall.

[0037] The suspension 2 is mounted on the fixed frame 11 in a manner that allows it to move up and down relative to the fixed frame 11. Specifically, the suspension 2 includes a suspension beam 21 extending in the left-right direction and a pair of movable tubes 22 extending downward from the left and right ends of the suspension beam 21 and corresponding one-to-one with the fixed tube 111. The bottom of each movable tube 22 is inserted into the fixed tube 111 in a way that allows it to move up and down, and each movable tube 22 has an inwardly recessed portion 221.

[0038] The locking assembly 3 is used to lock and unlock the relative positions of the suspension 2 and the fixing frame 11. In this embodiment, the locking assembly 3 includes a locking member 31 and an elastic member 32.

[0039] Specifically, the tail of the locking member 31 is laterally movably mounted on the end wall inside the recess 221 via the guide shaft 311, and the end of the guide shaft 311 is provided with a stop member 3111 that is limited to the recess 221; the head of the locking member 31 has a limiting protrusion 312 exposed outside the movable tube 22, and both the limiting protrusion 312 and the aforementioned limiting groove 1111 are hemispherical.

[0040] The elastic element 32 is a compression spring, which is sleeved on the outer periphery of the guide shaft 311, and its two ends abut against the opposite surfaces of the locking element 31 and the movable tube 22, so that the limiting protrusion 312 of the locking element 31 always tends to be inserted into the limiting groove 1111 of the corresponding height.

[0041] The water outlet assembly 4 is installed in the middle of the cantilever beam 21. In this embodiment, the water outlet assembly 4 includes a base 41, a water outlet seat 42, and an angle adjustment assembly 43.

[0042] Specifically, the base 41 is installed in the middle of the cantilever beam 21;

[0043] The connecting end of the water outlet seat 42 is rotatably connected to the base 41 via a rotating shaft 421 extending in the left-right direction; the free end of the water outlet seat 42 has a waterfall nozzle 422 extending in the left-right direction.

[0044] The angle adjustment component 43 is used to limit the rotation angle of the water outlet seat 42. In this embodiment, the angle adjustment component 43 includes a gear 431 and an elastic ball 432. The gear 431 is coaxially arranged on the outer periphery of the rotating shaft 421; the elastic ball 432 is mounted on the base 41 and meshes with the gear 431.

[0045] The water supply pipe 5 passes through the fixed pipe 111 and the corresponding movable pipe 22 on the left side from bottom to top, and then connects to the water inlet end of the water outlet seat 42.

[0046] The auxiliary water outlet 6 is installed on the left side wall of the tank 1 and is used to supply waterfall water into the tank 1.

[0047] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows:

[0048] (1) Before cleaning, the user can hold the suspension 2 and move it vertically. During this process, the locking part 31 will retract under the force of the fixed tube 111 to overcome the elastic force of the elastic part 32. When the water outlet assembly 4 is adjusted to a suitable height with the suspension 2, the user can release the suspension 2. The locking part 31 will reset under the elastic force of the elastic part 32 so that the limiting protrusion 312 is inserted into the limiting groove 1111 of the corresponding height, thereby realizing the relative positioning of the suspension 2 and the fixed frame 11. The user can also hold the water outlet seat 42 and rotate it around the axis of the rotating shaft 421. During this process, the elastic ball 432 will retract under the force of the gear 431 to overcome its own elastic force. When the waterfall nozzle 422 of the water outlet seat 42 is adjusted to a suitable angle, the user can release the water outlet seat 42. The elastic ball 432 will reset under its own elastic force so that its head is inserted into the tooth groove of the gear 431, thereby realizing the relative positioning of the water outlet seat 42 and the base 41.

[0049] In this way, the water outlet range of the waterfall nozzle 422 can be adjusted according to needs;

[0050] (2) During cleaning, tap water is supplied to the water outlet 42 through the water supply pipe 5 and discharged through the waterfall nozzle 422 to achieve the cleaning function.

[0051] In the above scheme, the water outlet component 4 is installed through the suspension 2, eliminating the need for a faucet plate and expanding the operating space.
