Reference Figures 1-11 The switch assembly includes a fixed base 8, a push block 9, a stop block 10, and a pressing block 11. The fixed base 8 is fixedly disposed in the communicating cavity 7. The fixed base 8 has a first water outlet 12 and a second water outlet 13. The fixed base 8 also has a water inlet 14, which communicates with the shower arm 1. The fixed base 8 has a moving groove 15, in which the push block 9 is located. The first water outlet 12 is fixedly disposed on a mounting plate 16. The mounting plate 16 is fixedly disposed on a guide post 17. The push block 9 has a guide groove 18, which is fitted onto the guide post 17. The guide post 17 is fixedly disposed on a stabilizing strip 19, which abuts against the groove wall of the guide groove 18. The guide post 17 is fitted with an abutting spring 20, one end of which abuts against the stabilizing strip 19. The abutting spring 20 is located in the guide groove 18 and abuts the push block 9 to move away from the first water outlet 12. Reference Figures 1-11 The stop block 10 is fixedly mounted on the push block 9. In this embodiment, the stop block 10 is annular and made of silicone. To increase the sealing performance, two stop blocks 10 are provided on the push block 9. The fixed base 8 has a clearance opening 21. The push block 9 is fixedly mounted with a protrusion 22, which is frustoconical in shape and integrally formed with the push block 9. The protrusion 22 is located in the clearance opening 21. The pressing block 11 is rotatably mounted on the placement base 3. The pressing block 11 is fixedly mounted with a top block 23. The top block 23 has an inclined surface 24. The protrusion 22 abuts against the inclined surface 24. The pressing block 11 is partially located in the slot 4. Reference Figures 1-11The second water outlet 13 is connected to the moving groove 15 and the top spray 2, while the first water outlet 12 is connected to the water outlet pipe 5. When using the top spray 2, the handheld shower head 6 is inserted into the slot 4. When the shower head is inserted, it rotates against the pressing block 11, causing the top block 23 to rotate towards the first water outlet 12. Under the contact of the inclined surface 24, the protrusion 22 moves towards the first water outlet 12 until the stop block 10 blocks the first water outlet. 12. At this time, the inlet 14 is connected to the moving cavity, and the water flows through the moving groove 15 to the second outlet 13, and finally sprays out through the top spray 2. When using the handheld shower head 6, the shower head is removed from the slot 4. When removing it, the abutment spring 20 abuts the push block 9 and moves it away from the first outlet 12 until the stop block 10 enters the moving cavity. At this time, the first outlet 12 is connected to the inlet 14, and the water enters the water supply pipe through the first outlet 12 and is sprayed out through the handheld shower head 6. Reference Figures 1-11 Whether or not to place the handheld shower head 6 depends on actual needs, thus facilitating the placement of the handheld shower head 6 while allowing for easy switching between different shower modes, increasing the functionality of the wall-mounted shower arm 1 and making it more suitable for different users.

[0031] Reference Figures 1-11 The height line of one-quarter of the height of slot 4 is A, and the height line of two-quarters of the height of slot 4 is B. The handheld shower head 6 moves down against the pressing block 11. When it passes B, the stop block 10 blocks the first water outlet 12. As the handheld shower head 6 continues to move down, it continues to push the push block 9 to move. When the handheld shower head 6 is inserted below B, the stop block 10 can completely block the first water outlet 12, thus adapting to different insertions of the handheld shower head 6 and ensuring that the stop block 10 can enter and completely block the first water outlet 12, so that the stop block 10 moves into place.

[0032] Reference Figures 1-11 A sealing block 25 is fixedly installed on the push block 9. The sealing block 25 abuts against the moving groove 15. The sealing block 25 increases the sealing performance and prevents water from flowing out of the relief port 21. When the push block 9 moves, the stabilizing strip 19 abuts against the guide groove 18, reducing the shaking of the guide groove 18 and stabilizing the movement of the push block 9.

[0033] Reference Figures 1-11 The fixing base 8 is fixedly provided with a reinforcing plate 26, which is integrally formed with the fixing base 8. The reinforcing plate 26 improves the strength of the fixing base 8 and enhances its compressive strength.

[0034] Reference Figures 1-11The slot 4 is designed with a larger top and a smaller bottom. When the handheld shower head 6 is inserted, the larger top of the slot 4 makes it easier to insert the handheld shower head 6 and also makes it easy to adapt to different handheld shower heads 6. A retaining layer 27 is fixedly installed in the slot 4. The retaining layer 27 is a soft silicone layer. When the handheld shower head 6 is inserted into the slot 4, the retaining layer 27 holds the handheld shower head 6 tightly and reduces the movement of the handheld shower head 6.

[0035] Reference Figures 1-11 The pressing block 11 has a guide slope 28, which contacts the handheld shower head 6 and guides the handheld shower head 6 to facilitate its insertion.

[0036] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: whether or not to place the handheld shower head 6 is determined according to actual needs, so as to facilitate the placement of the handheld shower head 6 and the switching of different shower modes, thereby increasing the functionality of the wall-mounted shower arm 1 and making it convenient to adapt to different groups of people. When using the overhead spray 2, insert the handheld shower head 6 into the slot 4. At this time, the handheld shower head 6 will rotate against the pressing block 11, and the top block 23 will move against the push block 9, causing the push block 9 to move towards the first water outlet 12. This will cause the stop block 10 to block the first water outlet 12, and the water inlet 14 will enter the moving groove 15, then enter the second water outlet 13, and finally spray out from the overhead spray 2, achieving a convenient switching effect.
