The valve body assembly is provided with a water inlet channel. The fixed pipe is installed on the valve body assembly, and the water inlet channel is connected to the water passage channel.

[0020] As can be seen from the above description of the present invention and its preferred embodiments, compared with the prior art, the technical solution of the present invention and its preferred embodiments have the following beneficial effects due to the adoption of the following technical means:

[0021] 1. In Scheme 1 and its preferred embodiments, a pipe assembly includes a fixed pipe, a lifting pipe, a first bushing, a first fixed seat, and a first locking member.

[0022] Fixed tube;

[0023] The lifting tube is adapted to slide relative to the fixed tube in a first direction, thus facilitating lifting and adjustment.

[0024] The first fixed seat is sleeved on the first bushing;

[0025] The first locking member is movably mounted on the first fixed base and is adapted to apply force to the first bushing. Because the first bushing is flexible and sleeved on the fixed tube and the lifting tube, when the first bushing is subjected to force, its inner surface deforms and presses tightly against the fixed tube and the lifting tube, thereby providing greater friction to prevent the lifting tube from rising or falling accordingly. This stabilizes the height of both tubes after adjustment. Simultaneously, it fixes the fixed tube and the lifting tube, preventing relative displacement due to water flow between them in some embodiments. When the height of the lifting tube needs to be adjusted, the first locking member can be moved away from the first bushing to unlock the first bushing relative to the fixed tube and the moving tube, enabling stepless adjustment of the lifting tube without the need for machining positioning holes, making it more convenient. Furthermore, the flexibility of the first bushing reduces the possibility of scratching the first bushing or the fixed tube when the lifting tube slides.

[0026] 2. In Scheme 2 and its preferred embodiments, the lifting tube is inserted into the fixed tube to facilitate the placement of the first bushing and provide support for it. The first bushing is supported by the fixed tube, and the first fixed seat is located on the first bushing, thus preventing it from detaching downwards from the first bushing and ensuring the stability of their fit, which facilitates the installation of the first locking member.

[0027] 3. In Scheme 3 and its preferred embodiments, the first locking member is snapped, interference-fitted, or threadedly connected to the first fixed seat, thereby facilitating installation and disassembly, and making it convenient to lock and unlock the moving tube. The threaded connection allows for precise adjustment of the locking tightness, making it more convenient to use.

[0028] 4. In Scheme 4 and its preferred embodiments, a support base is also included. The support base is sleeved on the lifting pipe and is adapted to be fixed to the wall, thereby supporting the lifting pipe and preventing it from tilting due to vibration or gravity, which could lead to damage. When replacing the original support base installed on the wall, since the support base is installed on the lifting pipe, it can be adjusted to the original installation position on the wall before installation, thus achieving the purpose of not affecting wall damage and appearance.

[0029] 5. In Scheme 5 and its preferred embodiments, the support base includes a second fixed base, a second bushing, and a second locking member. The second bushing is flexible and is sleeved on the lifting tube. The second fixed base is sleeved outside the second bushing. The second locking member is installed on the second fixed base and is adapted to apply force to the second bushing so that the inner surface of the second bushing is tightly against the lifting tube. This allows the second bushing to tightly adhere to the lifting tube, compensating for the gap between them and improving the effect of preventing the lifting tube from shaking or tilting. At the same time, it can also achieve the function of holding the lifting tube tightly. It prevents the second locking member from moving upwards and cooperates with the first locking member to improve the locking effect.

[0030] 6. In Scheme 6 and its preferred embodiments, the support base includes a second fixed base, a third locking member and a wall connector. The wall connector is adapted to be fixed to the wall, and the second fixed base is adapted to be sleeved on the outside of the lifting pipe to support the lifting pipe and prevent it from tilting.

[0031] The second fixing seat is inserted into the wall connector in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, so as to adjust the distance between the second fixing seat (i.e., the lifting pipe) and the wall in the second direction; the third locking member is installed on the second fixing seat or the wall connector. The third locking member is suitable for locking the second fixing seat and the wall connector after the second fixing seat and the wall connector are inserted, thereby preventing the second fixing seat and the wall connector from sliding in the second direction through the friction generated by the mutual resistance, and ensuring the installation stability.

[0032] 7. In Scheme 7 and its preferred embodiments, the wall connector or the second fixing seat is provided with a limiting groove, and the third locking member is adapted to be inserted into the limiting groove in a direction perpendicular to the second direction, thereby limiting the position of the wall connector and the second fixing seat in the second direction to a certain extent, preventing loosening caused by relying solely on friction.

[0033] 8. In Scheme 8 and its preferred embodiments, a fourth locking member and a decorative cover are further included. The wall connector has a through hole, and the fourth locking member is adapted to pass through the through hole and cooperate with the wall to fix the wall connector to the wall, thereby achieving the fixation of the wall connector. The decorative cover is placed on the wall connector to cover the through hole and the fourth locking member, thereby improving the appearance. Furthermore, the side of the decorative cover facing away from the wall is adapted to be abutted by the second fixing seat, thereby limiting the position of the decorative cover and preventing it from detaching from the second fixing seat.

[0034] 9. In Scheme 9 and its preferred embodiments, a shower includes a water outlet component and the above-mentioned pipe assembly. The fixed pipe is provided with a water passage, and the rising pipe is provided with a water outlet channel. The water passage and the water outlet channel are adapted to be sealed and connected. The water outlet component is installed on the rising pipe and connected to the water outlet end of the water outlet channel to realize the corresponding water passage function and has the beneficial effects brought by the above-mentioned pipe assembly.

[0035] 10. In Scheme 10 and its preferred embodiments, a shower head holder is also included, which is installed on a fixed pipe or a riser pipe to adjust the position of the shower head. A valve body assembly is also included, which has a water inlet channel. The fixed pipe is installed on the valve body assembly, and the water inlet channel is connected to the water passage channel to achieve water circuit connection and is suitable for controlling the water circuit.

[0052] In the claims, description and accompanying drawings of this utility model, the terms "comprising", "having", and variations thereof are used to mean "including but not limited to".

[0053] refer to Figures 1-9 A shower unit includes a pipe assembly, a water outlet 10, a shower head 20, and a valve body assembly 30.

[0054] The pipe assembly includes a fixed pipe 1, a lifting pipe 2, a first bushing 3, a first fixed seat 4, a first locking element 5, a support seat 6, a fourth locking element 7, and a decorative cover 8.

[0055] The fixed pipe 1 is provided with a water passage 11 and is suitable for installation on the valve body assembly 30.

[0056] The lifting pipe 2 is provided with a water outlet channel 12 that communicates with the water passage 11. The lifting pipe 2 includes a vertical rod 13 connected to it and a cantilever rod 14 extending in the horizontal direction. The outer wall of the vertical rod 13 is provided with a sealing ring groove 131 for installing a sealing ring. The vertical rod 13 is inserted into the fixed pipe 1 so that the sealing ring abuts against the inner wall of the fixed pipe 1, thereby making the lifting pipe 2 suitable for sliding in a sealed manner relative to the fixed pipe 1 in the first direction 91. At the same time, the water passage 11 and the water outlet channel 12 are suitable for sealed communication to allow water to pass through.

[0057] refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 The first bushing 3 is flexible and has a through-hole in the middle. The first bushing 3 includes a first sleeve part 31 and a second sleeve part 32. The inner wall size of the second sleeve part 32 is larger than the inner wall size of the second sleeve part 32. The first sleeve part 31 is suitable for being sleeved on the outside of the lifting pipe 2 and located on the upper end of the fixed pipe 1. The second sleeve part 32 is suitable for being sleeved on the outside of the fixed pipe 1.

[0058] refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 The first fixing seat 4 is sleeved on and rests on the first bushing 3. In this embodiment, the first fixing seat 4 has a stepped hole 41, which is sleeved on the outside of the first bushing 3, and has a first sitting surface 411 and a second sitting surface 412. The first sitting surface 411 is adapted to sit on the first sleeve portion 31, and the second sitting surface 412 is adapted to sit on the second sleeve portion 32. The first fixing seat 4 also has a first threaded hole 42 extending in a direction perpendicular to the first direction 91, and the first threaded hole 42 communicates with the stepped hole 41. In this embodiment, there are two first threaded holes 42 for the installation of the first locking member 5.

[0059] The first locking member 5 is movably mounted on the first fixed base 4. In this embodiment, the first locking member 5 is mounted on the first fixed base 4 by being threaded into the first threaded hole 42, and there are two first locking members 5. In other embodiments, the first locking member 5 can also be mounted on the first fixed base 4 by snap-fit ​​or interference fit. For example, the first fixed base 4 is provided with a pin hole, and the first locking member 5 is interference fit with the pin hole; or the first fixed base 4 is provided with a snap hole, and the first locking member 5 is snap-fitted with the snap hole by rotation; or the inner wall of the snap hole is provided with a snap protrusion or a snap groove, and the first locking member 5 has a corresponding snap groove or snap protrusion. The snap protrusion or snap groove can be deformed, so that the snap protrusion can be snapped into or disengaged from the snap groove.

[0060] refer to Figure 5 When the first locking member 5 is installed on the first fixed seat 4, the first locking member 5 also abuts against the outer wall of the first bushing 3 and applies force to the first bushing 3 so that the inner surface of the first bushing 3 is tightly against the fixed tube 1 and the lifting tube 2, that is, so that the inner surfaces of the first sleeve part 31 and the second sleeve part 32 are tightly against the lifting tube 2 and the fixed tube 1.

[0061] refer to Figure 6 , Figure 7 The support seat 6 is fitted onto the lifting pipe 2 and is adapted to be fixed to the wall, thereby supporting the lifting pipe 2 and preventing it from tilting, especially when the lifting pipe 2 has a cantilever rod 14, which is prone to tilting.

[0062] The support base 6 includes a second fixed base 61, a second bushing 62, a second locking member 63, a third locking member 64, and a wall connector 65.

[0063] The wall connector 65 includes a base 651 and a plug shaft 652. The base 651 has a plurality of through holes 6511. The plug shaft 652 extends along a second direction 92 perpendicular to the first direction 91. In this embodiment, the second direction 92 is also perpendicular to the wall. A limiting groove 6521 is provided on the side wall of the plug shaft 652. In this embodiment, the limiting groove 6521 is an annular groove so that installation does not require a specific angle. In other embodiments, it may also be a non-annular groove.

[0064] The fourth locking member 7 is adapted to pass through the through hole 6511 and engage with the wall, thereby fixing the wall connector 65 to the wall. For example, if the fourth locking member 7 is a screw, a threaded component is pre-installed in the wall, allowing the fourth locking member 7 to engage with the threaded component. Alternatively, the fourth locking member 7 can be directly tapped onto the wall. Of course, in other embodiments, the wall connector 65 can also be fixed to the wall by adhesive or other methods, but these are less convenient for disassembly.

[0065] The second fixing seat 61 has a sleeve hole 611 extending along the first direction 91 and a plug hole 612 extending along the second direction 92. The sleeve hole 611 is sleeved on the outside of the lifting tube 2 and the second bushing 62. The second fixing seat 61 is plugged into the plug shaft 652 of the wall connector 65 along the second direction 92 through the plug hole 612. At the same time, the second fixing seat 61 also has a second threaded hole and a third threaded hole. The second threaded hole extends in a direction perpendicular to the first direction 91 and communicates with the sleeve hole 611. The third threaded hole communicates with the plug hole 612, extends in a direction perpendicular to the second direction 92, and provides a place for the third locking member 64 to be installed.

[0066] The third locking member 64 is movably installed on the second fixed base 61 through a threaded engagement with the third threaded hole. After the second fixed base 61 and the wall connector 65 are inserted, the third threaded hole is adapted to align with the opening of the limiting groove 6521, so that the third locking member 64 is also inserted into the limiting groove 6521 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction 92, thereby restricting the second fixed base 61 from sliding relative to the wall connector 65 in the second direction 92, thus locking the second fixed base 61 and the wall connector 65. In other embodiments, if the insertion shaft 652 does not have a limiting groove 6521, the third locking member 64 can generate friction by pressing against the wall connector 65 to achieve locking between the wall connector 65 and the second fixed base 61.

[0067] Of course, in other embodiments, the wall connector 65 may be provided with a plug hole 612, and the second fixing seat 61 may be provided with a plug shaft 652 and a limiting groove 6521, so as to realize the plug-in between the two. In this case, the third locking member 64 is installed on the wall connector 65.

[0068] refer to Figure 7 The second bushing 62 is flexible and is fitted onto the lifting tube 2 and placed inside the fitting hole 611 of the second fixed seat 61. The first bushing 3 and the second bushing 62 can be C-shaped to facilitate pre-compression and easy entry into the first fixed seat 4 and the second fixed seat 61. At the same time, the rebound force will cause them to abut against the inner wall of the first fixed seat 4 or the second fixed seat 61, thereby achieving pre-installation.

[0069] The second locking member 63 is movably mounted on the second fixed base 61 by threaded engagement with the second threaded hole, and is adapted to apply force to the second bushing 62 so that the inner surface of the second bushing 62 is tightly pressed against the lifting tube 2.

[0070] refer to Figure 7 The decorative cover 8 is placed on the wall connector 65, and the side facing away from the wall is suitable for being abutted by the second fixing seat 61, thereby fixing the position.

[0071] refer to Figure 1The water outlet component 10 is installed on the riser pipe 2 and connected to the water outlet end of the water outlet channel 12. In this embodiment, the water outlet component 10 is a top spray.

[0072] Shower head seat 20 is installed on fixed pipe 1 or riser pipe 2 to support the shower head. When shower head seat 20 is adapted to rise and fall relative to fixed pipe 1 or riser pipe 2, or when it is installed on riser pipe 2, the height of the shower head can also be adjusted for easy use.

[0073] The valve body assembly 30 is provided with a water inlet channel, which is connected to the water passage 11 and the shower head. The valve body assembly 30 is equipped with corresponding switching valves, temperature control valves, etc., to realize functions such as switching water circuits and adjusting temperature.

[0074] When using, refer to Figure 8 , Figure 9 First, install the first bushing 3 into the stepped hole 41 of the first fixed seat 4. Then, place the first bushing 3 onto the upper end of the fixed tube 1. Next, install the second bushing 62 into the sleeve hole 611 of the second fixed seat 61 and place the second bushing 62 onto the lifting tube 2. Insert the lifting tube 2 into the fixed tube 1, so that the first bushing 3 covers the outside of the lifting tube 2. Then, connect and fix the fixed tube 1 to the valve body assembly 30. Install the wall connector 65 onto the second fixed seat 61 and place the decorative cover 8 onto the second fixed seat 61. Adjust the height of the second fixed seat 61 so that the through hole 6511 on the wall connector 65 corresponds to the threaded hole on the wall. Lock the wall connector 65 with the threaded hole using the fourth locking piece 7, thereby fixing the wall connector 65. Lock the second fixed seat 61 and the wall connector 65 with the third locking piece 64. Finally, the first locking member 5 and the second locking member 63 are locked. The first locking member 5 and the second locking member 63 act on the first bushing 3 and the second bushing 62 respectively, so that the first bushing 3 is tightly against the fixed tube 1 and the lifting tube 2, and the second bushing 62 is tightly against the lifting tube 2, so that the position of the lifting tube 2 relative to the fixed tube 1 is fixed.

[0075] When it is necessary to adjust the height of the lifting tube 2, loosen the first locking piece 5 and the second locking piece 63 so that the height of the lifting tube 2 can be adjusted relative to the fixed tube 1. After the adjustment is completed, the first locking piece 5 and the second locking piece 63 can be locked again.

[0076] Compared with the prior art, this embodiment has the following beneficial effects:

[0077] In one exemplary embodiment, a pipe assembly includes a fixed pipe 1, a lifting pipe 2, a first bushing 3, a first fixing seat 4, and a first locking member 5.

[0078] Fixed tube 1;

[0079] The lifting tube 2 is adapted to slide relative to the fixed tube 1 along the first direction 91, thereby adapting to lifting and adjusting.

[0080] The first fixed seat 4 is sleeved on the first bushing 3;

[0081] The first locking member 5 is movably installed on the first fixed base 4 and is adapted to apply force to the first bushing 3. Since the first bushing 3 is flexible and is sleeved on the fixed tube 1 and the lifting tube 2, when the first bushing 3 is subjected to force, the inner surface of the first bushing 3 deforms and presses tightly against the fixed tube 1 and the lifting tube 2, thereby providing a large frictional force so that the lifting tube 2 cannot be raised or lowered accordingly, thus stabilizing the stability after the height of the two is adjusted. At the same time, it fixes the fixed tube 1 and the lifting tube 2, preventing relative displacement between the two under the action of water force when water flows between the fixed tube 1 and the lifting tube 2 in some embodiments. When it is necessary to adjust the height of the lifting tube 2, the first bushing 3 can be unlocked relative to the fixed tube 1 and the lifting tube 2 by moving the first locking member 5 away from the first bushing 3, and the lifting tube 2 can be infinitely adjusted without the need to process positioning holes in the lifting tube 2, which is more convenient. Moreover, since the first bushing 3 is flexible, it can reduce the possibility of scratching the first bushing 3 or the fixed tube 1 when the lifting tube 2 slides.

[0082] In one exemplary embodiment, the lifting tube 2 is inserted into the fixing tube 1 to allow the first bushing 3 to sit and provide support for it. The first bushing 3 is supported on the fixing tube 1, and the first fixing seat 4 is located on the first bushing 3, so that it will not fall off the first bushing 3, ensuring the stability of the fit between the two, so as to facilitate the installation of the first locking member 5.

[0083] In one exemplary embodiment, the first locking member 5 is snapped, interference-fitted, or threadedly connected to the first fixing seat 4, thereby facilitating installation and disassembly to lock and unlock the moving tube. The threaded connection allows for precise adjustment of the locking tightness, making it more convenient to use.

[0084] In one exemplary embodiment, a support base 6 is further included. The support base 6 is sleeved on the lifting pipe 2 and adapted to be fixed to the wall, thereby supporting the lifting pipe 2 and preventing it from tilting due to vibration or gravity, which could lead to damage. When replacing the original support base 6 installed on the wall, since the support base 6 is installed on the lifting pipe 2, it can be adjusted to the original installation position on the wall before installation, thus achieving the purpose of not affecting wall damage and appearance.

[0085] In one exemplary embodiment, the support base 6 includes a second fixed base 61, a second bushing 62, and a second locking member 63. The second bushing 62 is flexible and is sleeved on the lifting tube 2. The second fixed base 61 is sleeved outside the second bushing 62. The second locking member 63 is installed on the second fixed base 61 and is adapted to apply force to the second bushing 62 so that the inner surface of the second bushing 62 is tightly against the lifting tube 2. This close contact between the second bushing 62 and the lifting tube 2 compensates for the gap between them, thus improving the effect of preventing the lifting tube 2 from shaking or tilting. At the same time, it can also achieve the function of holding the lifting tube 2 tightly. When the second locking member 63 moves, it prevents it from moving upwards and cooperates with the first locking member 5 to improve the locking effect.

[0086] In one exemplary embodiment, the support base 6 includes a second fixing base 61, a third locking member 64, and a wall connector 65. The wall connector 65 is adapted to be fixed to the wall, and the second fixing base 61 is adapted to be sleeved on the outside of the lifting pipe 2 to support the lifting pipe 2 and prevent it from tilting.

[0087] The second fixing seat 61 is inserted into the wall connector 65 along the second direction 92, which is perpendicular to the first direction 91, so as to adjust the distance between the second fixing seat 61, i.e., the lifting tube 2, and the wall along the second direction 92. The third locking member 64 is installed on the second fixing seat 61 or the wall connector 65. The third locking member 64 is suitable for locking the second fixing seat 61 and the wall connector 65 after they are inserted into each other. This prevents the second fixing seat 61 and the wall connector 65 from sliding along the second direction 92 by the friction generated by their mutual resistance, thus ensuring the stability of the installation.

[0088] In one exemplary embodiment, the wall connector 65 or the second fixing seat 61 is provided with a limiting groove 6521, and the third locking member 64 is adapted to be inserted into the limiting groove 6521 in a direction perpendicular to the second direction 92, thereby limiting the position of the wall connector 65 and the second fixing seat 61 in the second direction 92 to a certain extent, preventing loosening caused by relying solely on frictional force for limitation.

[0089] In one exemplary embodiment, the system further includes a fourth locking member 7 and a decorative cover 8. The wall connector 65 has a through hole 6511. The fourth locking member 7 is adapted to pass through the through hole 6511 and engage with the wall to fix the wall connector 65 to the wall, thereby securing the wall connector 65. The decorative cover 8 is placed on the wall connector 65, thereby concealing the through hole 6511 and the fourth locking member 7, resulting in a better appearance. Furthermore, the side of the decorative cover 8 facing away from the wall is adapted to be abutted by the second fixing seat 61, thereby limiting the position of the decorative cover 8 and preventing it from detaching from the second fixing seat 61.

[0090] In one exemplary embodiment, a shower includes a water outlet 10 and the aforementioned pipe assembly. The fixed pipe 1 is provided with a water passage 11, and the rising pipe 2 is provided with a water outlet 12. The water passage 11 and the water outlet 12 are adapted to be sealed and connected. The water outlet 10 is installed on the rising pipe 2 and connected to the water outlet end of the water outlet 12 to realize the corresponding water passage function and has the beneficial effects brought by the aforementioned pipe assembly.

[0091] In one exemplary embodiment, the system further includes a shower head holder 20, which is mounted on a fixed pipe 1 or a riser pipe 2 to adjust the position of the shower head. It also includes a valve body assembly 30, which has a water inlet channel. The fixed pipe 1 is mounted on the valve body assembly 30, and the water inlet channel is connected to the water passage 11 to achieve water circuit connection and facilitate water circuit control.
