When the water pipe 101 extends out of the through hole 10a in the bottom wall, the water pipe 101 can extend downwards under the action of the self gravity of the water pipe 101, and the through hole 10a also has a certain guiding function on the extending direction of the water pipe 101, so that the stability of the water pipe 101 in the extending process can be improved; when the water pipe 101 is withdrawn from the through hole 10a of the bottom wall, the stability of the water pipe 101 during withdrawal can be improved by the through hole 10 a.

As shown in fig. 7, the first fixed pulley 21 is fixed to the receiving member 10, and the first fixed pulley 21 is disposed adjacent to the through hole 10a, and the first fixed pulley 21 can rotate about its central axis to guide the moving direction of the water pipe 101, thereby improving stability during the storage and extension of the water pipe 101.

Referring to fig. 7 and 8, the first moving wheel 31 is movably disposed on the receiving member 10, the first end 1011 of the water pipe 101 passes around the first moving wheel 31 and the first fixed pulley 21 and then downwardly extends from the through hole 10a, the driving member 40 is connected to the first moving wheel 31 to drive the first moving wheel 31 to move in the receiving member 10, and the first moving wheel 31 moves to control the length of the water pipe 101 extending from the through hole 10 a.

Specifically, first removal wheel 31 in this application cooperate with water pipe 101 for control water pipe 101 stretches out the length of through-hole 10a, and first fixed pulley 21 rotationally sets up in holding 10, and is used for playing the guide effect to the motion of water pipe 101, with the motion stability of promotion water pipe 101 in the process of stretching out or withdrawing. Wherein, the first fixed pulley 21 only serves to guide the water pipe 101, the first movable wheel 31 can have a certain guiding function for the water pipe 101, when the water pipe 101 needs to extend out of the through hole 10a, the first movable wheel 31 moves to a side close to the first fixed pulley 21 in the accommodating part 10 to shorten the distance between the first movable wheel 31 and the first fixed pulley 21, and at this time, the water pipe 101 can extend out of the through hole 10 a; when it is required to withdraw the water pipe 101 to the receiving member 10, the first moving wheel 31 is driven to move to a side away from the first fixed pulley 21 to increase the distance between the first moving wheel 31 and the first fixed pulley 21, and at this time, the water pipe 101 can be withdrawn from the through hole 10 a.

It should be noted that when the relative distance between the first moving wheel 31 and the first fixed pulley 21 changes, compensation needs to be performed through the water pipe 101, such as: when the distance between the first moving wheel 31 and the first fixed sheave 21 is reduced, the water pipe 101 may protrude through the through hole 10 a; when the distance between the first moving wheel 31 and the first fixed sheave 21 increases, the water pipe 101 located outside the receiving member 10 needs to enter the through hole 10 a. Thus, by adjusting the position of the first moving wheel 31 in the receiving member 10, the length of the water pipe 101 protruding out of the through-hole 10a can be adjusted.

As shown in fig. 8, in some embodiments of the present invention, the central axis of the first moving wheel 31 and the central axis of the first fixed pulley 21 have a certain included angle, and accordingly, in order to ensure the connection reliability of the water pipe 101 with the water tank 200, the water pump 400, and the like, the second fixed pulley 22 is required to be provided, so that the extending direction of the other end of the water pipe 101 (i.e., the other end of the water pipe 101 not extending out of the through hole 10 a) can be guided by the second fixed pulley 22, thereby improving the reliability of the movement of the water pipe 101 during the adjustment of the extending length of the water pipe 101. Wherein, the position of the second fixed pulley 22 in the receiving member 10 can be set according to the position of the outlet end of the water pipe 101.

The first movable wheel 31 is horizontally arranged, namely the first movable wheel 31 is arranged in parallel with the bottom wall of the accommodating part 10, the first fixed pulley 21 is vertically arranged, the first fixed pulley 21 is arranged in parallel with the side wall of the accommodating part 10, and the central axis of the first movable wheel 31 is perpendicular to the central axis of the first fixed pulley 21. At this time, the water pipe sections matched with the first moving wheel 31 are located on the same horizontal plane, that is, the water pipe sections on both sides of the first moving wheel 31 are located on the same horizontal plane; the water pipe sections matched with the first fixed pulley 21 are positioned on the same vertical plane, namely, the water pipe sections positioned on two sides of the first fixed pulley 21 are positioned on the same vertical plane, so that the length of the water pipe 101 in the accommodating part 10 can be reasonably increased. The routing manner of the water pipe 101 in the accommodating member 10 may be set according to the positions of both ends of the water pipe 101, based on which the arrangement positions and the movement route of the fixed pulley and the movable wheel in the accommodating member 10 are set.

The first fixed pulley 21, the second fixed pulley 22 and the third fixed pulley 23 can rotate around the central axis of the first fixed pulley 21, the second fixed pulley 22 and the third fixed pulley 23, and the first fixed pulley 21, the second fixed pulley 22 and the third fixed pulley 23 are all used for stabilizing the extension or retraction process of the lifting water pipe 101.

When the driving member 40 drives the second moving wheel 32 to move, the first moving wheel 31 and the second moving wheel 32 move synchronously, so that the distance between the first moving wheel 31 and the second moving wheel 32 and the second fixed pulley 22 can be adjusted simultaneously, so as to quickly adjust the extension length of the water pipe 101. Referring to fig. 8, when the first and second moving wheels 31 and 32 are moved in a direction approaching the second fixed sheave 22 by a distance L, the length of the water pipe 101 protruding through the through hole 10a is 4L, thereby achieving a length of the water pipe 101 protruding by a relatively long length by driving the first and second moving wheels 31 and 32 to be displaced by a relatively short distance.

It should be noted that the arrangement of the first moving wheel 31, the second moving wheel 32, the first fixed pulley 21, the second fixed pulley 22 and the third fixed pulley 23 in the accommodating space may be arranged according to the arrangement positions of the water suction end and the water discharge end of the water pipe 101. Referring to fig. 8, when the water absorbing end of the water pipe 101 needs to be disposed on the top wall of the accommodating part 10, the third fixed pulley 23 may be disposed along the vertical direction, and accordingly, the second movable wheel 32 is also disposed along the vertical direction and attached to the side wall of the accommodating part 10, that is, the second movable wheel 32 and the third fixed pulley 23 are disposed on the same vertical plane, and such disposition can ensure the stability of the water pipe 101 in the process of adjusting the extending length thereof, and ensure the water supply effect, and at the same time, the water pipe 101 may be disposed in the accommodating part 10 by a more three-dimensional winding manner. It is understood that the "three-dimensional winding manner" means that an included angle exists between the plane of the water pipe sections on both sides of the first moving wheel 31 and the plane of the water pipe sections on both sides of the second moving wheel 32. When the water pipe 101 is wound in the three-dimensional winding manner, the number of the moving wheels needs to be less than that of the fixed pulleys, and the number of the moving wheels is at least less than that of the fixed pulleys by one, so as to ensure the motion stability of the water pipe 101 in the adjusting process.
