[0029] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0030] like Figures 1-5 The diagram shows the under-sink mounting structure of the faucet according to the present invention, used for pipe connections under countertops such as bathroom sinks and kitchen sinks. (See reference...) Figure 1As shown, the installation structure includes a connecting component 100, which is sleeved on a tube 200 located on the underside of a platform 300 and having an annular groove 201. The connecting component 100 includes a first connecting sleeve 11, a second connecting sleeve 12, and an annular claw 13. The first connecting sleeve 11 can abut against the bottom surface of the platform 300, the second connecting sleeve 12 can move up and down relative to the first connecting sleeve 11, and the annular claw 13 moves up and down under the action of the second connecting sleeve 12 and can be engaged in the annular groove 201 of the tube 200. The annular claw 13 and the second connecting sleeve 12 have a mutually cooperating conical structure to limit the downward movement limit of the second connecting sleeve 12.

[0031] During installation, the first connecting sleeve 11 is first placed against the bottom surface of the platform 300. It is the foundational component for the entire installation structure's contact with the platform 300. The second connecting sleeve 12 then moves up and down relative to the first connecting sleeve 11, acting on the annular claw 13 to engage with the tube body 200. The second connecting sleeve 12 is then moved downwards. The conical surfaces of the second connecting sleeve 12 and the annular claw 13 engage, limiting the downward movement of the second connecting sleeve 12 to its extreme position, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the installation structure. The entire installation process can be completed simply by rotating the second connecting sleeve 12, requiring no complex tools and offering convenience and reliability.

[0032] Specifically, in one alternative implementation, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the outer circumferential surface of the first connecting sleeve 11 is provided with an external thread 111, and the inner circumferential surface of the second connecting sleeve 12 is provided with an internal thread 124 that matches the external thread 111. Through the threaded connection, after the first connecting sleeve 11 abuts against the table surface 300, the second connecting sleeve 12 can move down relative to the first connecting sleeve 11, providing adjustability for subsequent installation steps.

[0033] Specifically, in one alternative implementation, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 As shown, the annular claw 13 is located below the first connecting sleeve 11. It includes an annular body 131 and multiple claw units 132 evenly distributed along the circumference of the annular body 131. The inner side of the claw unit 132 is provided with a snap-fit ​​protrusion 1321, which is adapted to cooperate with the annular groove 201 of the tube body 200. The snap-fit ​​protrusion 1321 can tightly cooperate with the annular groove 201 of the tube body 200, thereby realizing the secure fixing of the entire installation structure to the tube body 200.

[0034] Specifically, in one alternative implementation, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, the outer side of the claw unit 132 is provided with a first conical surface 1322, and the inner side of the second connecting sleeve 12 is provided with a second conical surface 121 that cooperates with it. Both the first conical surface 1322 and the second conical surface 121 are positive conical surfaces. The two cooperate to limit the extreme position of the downward movement of the second connecting sleeve 12, so as to ensure the stability and accuracy of the installation structure.

[0035] Specifically, in one alternative implementation, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the second connecting sleeve 12 is provided with at least a pair of oppositely arranged insertion holes 122. The annular claw 13 also includes a support claw 133 detachably connected to the annular body 131. The support claw 133 is inserted along the insertion hole 122 and engages with the annular body 131. When the second connecting sleeve 12 moves downward, the annular claw 13 moves through the support claw 133. When assembling the connecting assembly 100, the annular claw 13 without the support claw 133 is first placed inside the second connecting sleeve 12. Then, the support claw 133 is connected to the annular body 131 through the insertion hole 122 of the second connecting sleeve 12, so that the annular claw 13 moves when the second connecting sleeve 12 moves downward. The detachable connection structure between the annular body 131 and the support claw 133 of the annular claw 13 facilitates their installation and fixation.

[0036] The support claw 133 is also used to detach the entire connecting assembly 100 from the tube body 200. In one optional embodiment, such as... Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the inner surface of the free end of the support claw 133 is engaged with the second connecting sleeve 12 via a conical surface. Specifically, the inner surface of the support claw 133 is provided with a first inverted conical surface 1331, and the outer surface of the second connecting sleeve 12 is provided with a second inverted conical surface 123. This inverted conical surface engagement further enhances the connection stability and force transmission effect between the support claw 133 and the second connecting sleeve 12.

[0037] To facilitate the application of force during operation, the outer surfaces of the aforementioned support claw 133 and / or the second connecting sleeve 12 are provided with anti-slip parts. The anti-slip parts can be constructed by forming textures on the outer surface of the support claw 133 or by attaching anti-slip pads, etc., to facilitate the operation of the support claw 133 by installers during installation, prevent slippage, and improve installation efficiency.

[0038] To facilitate the installation of the connecting assembly 100 and the pipe body 200 having the annular groove 201, in one specific embodiment, such as Figure 2As shown, the inner surface of the first connecting sleeve 11 is provided with a plurality of ribs 112 distributed along the circumference. The ribs 112 extend longitudinally, which can reduce the contact area when the first connecting sleeve 11 is connected to the pipe body 200, facilitate the installation of the first connecting sleeve 11, and improve the installation efficiency.

[0039] In one specific implementation, such as Figure 1 As shown, a rubber pad 14 is provided on the top surface of the first connecting sleeve 11. The rubber pad 14 is used to increase the friction between the first connecting sleeve 11 and the bottom surface of the table 300, to prevent the installation structure from shifting during use, and also to play a certain buffering role to protect the table 300 from being scratched.

[0040] The installation and disassembly steps for the above-mentioned under-sink faucet mounting structure are as follows:

[0041] like Figure 5 As shown, when connecting the connecting assembly 100 to the tube 200 located below the platform 300, firstly, the first connecting sleeve 11 is fitted onto the tube 200, so that the top surface of the first connecting sleeve 11 abuts against the bottom surface of the platform 300; then, the second connecting sleeve 12 is rotated clockwise, and the threaded engagement causes it to move downward relative to the first connecting sleeve 11, and drives the annular claw 13 into the annular groove 201 of the tube 200; continue to rotate the second connecting sleeve 12 clockwise, and since the vertical position of the annular claw 13 has been limited, the second connecting sleeve 12 will move downward independently until its internal second conical surface 121 presses against the first conical surface 1322 of the annular claw 13, thereby achieving fixation.

[0042] When disassembling the component, rotate the second connecting sleeve 12 counterclockwise to disengage the second conical surface 121 inside it from the first conical surface 1322 of the annular claw 13, and then press the anti-slip part on the support claw 13 to remove the connecting component 100 as a whole downwards.

[0043] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this utility model.
