[0027] As shown in FIG. 4 to FIG. 7, preferably, the other end of the guiding inclined surface 41 is provided with a second limit portion 44; during reverse rotation of the driving member 2, the abutting member 4 moves away from the driven member 3 to drive the split nut 5 to disengage from the locking stud 6; and when the guide rib 34 abuts against the second limit portion 44 for limiting, the abutting member 4 moves together with the driven member 3 to disengage the split nut 5 from the locking stud 6. The first limit portion 43 and the second limit portion 44 cooperate with a guide rib 34 to limit a relative rotation angle between the driven member 3 and the abutting member 4. The length of the guide rib 34 is equal to an axial distance between two ends of the guiding inclined surface 41 plus a size of the second limit portion 44, enabling the driven member 3 to interact with the guiding inclined surface 41 on the abutting member 4 when rotating and to move away from or towards the abutting member, to ensure that the split nut 5 can be smoothly engaged or disengaged.

[0031] The utility model has the following working principle: Before mounting, the driving member 2 is first rotated clockwise to ensure that the split nut 5 is in an engaged or semi-engaged state, as shown in FIG. 8. When the toilet and the locker are mounted together with the locking stud 6, the split nut 5 is disengaged along the inclined guide surface 32 (dovetail groove 33) on the driven member 3 under a pushing force of the locking stud 6 penetrating into the body from a side with the limit portion, and is smoothly mounted, as shown in FIG. 9. After the toilet is mounted in place, the split nut 5 is gradually engaged along the inclined guide surface 32 and the dovetail groove 33 on the driven member 3 under an elastic force of the abutting member 4. At this time, the toilet can be loosened by hand, the split nut 5 is engaged with the locking stud 6 and tightened under the gravity of the toilet, and the toilet will not fall. Then, the driving member 2 continues to be rotated clockwise, and the split nut 5 rotates forward with the driven member 3, finally locking the toilet to the wall, as shown in FIG. 10.

[0032] When loosening, the driving member 2 is rotated counterclockwise, and the split nut 5 rotates reversely with the driven member 3 and gradually disengages from the locking stud 6. At the same time, the abutting member 4 also gradually moves away from the driven member 3 under the action of the guiding inclined surface 41. Then, the split nut 5 can be completely disengaged under the action of the first elastic member and the inclined guide surface 32 (dovetail groove 33) on the driven member 3. Finally, threads on the split nut 5 are completely disengaged from threads on the locking stud 6, and the toilet can be removed from the locking stud 6.
