         2 . The handheld shower as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the shower body has a receiving groove; the receiving groove and the outlet portion face opposite directions; the receiving groove is engaged with the liquid storage tank. 
     
     
         3 . The handheld shower as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the shower body has a first engaging portion; the liquid storage tank has a second engaging portion detachably engaged with the first engaging portion of the shower body. 
     
     
         4 . The handheld shower as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein one of the first engaging portion and the second engaging portion has an engaging track extending along a first predetermined direction, and the other one of the first engaging portion and the second engaging portion has an engaging groove corresponding to the engaging track; the engaged track is engaged with the engaging groove. 
     
     
         5 . The handheld shower as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein the shower body has a longitudinal direction and the engaging track; the first predetermined direction is the longitudinal direction of the shower body; the liquid storage tank has the engaging groove. 
     
     
         6 . The handheld shower as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the shower body has a receiving groove, and a groove surface of the receiving groove and the outlet portion face opposite directions; the engaging track has a narrow section and a wide section in a direction away from the groove surface of the receiving groove; the narrow section is connected to the groove surface; the engaging groove has a first section and a second section; a width of the first section is smaller than a width of the second section; the first section and the second section are respectively complementary to the narrow section and the wide section. 
     
     
         7 . The handheld shower as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein one of the shower body and the liquid storage tank has a positioning member, and the other one of the shower body and the liquid storage tank has a positioning hole; when the liquid storage tank is engaged with the shower body, the positioning member enters the positioning hole and restricts the liquid storage tank from changing a position in the first predetermined direction. 
     
     
         8 . The handheld shower as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein the positioning member is movable along a second predetermined direction to and enter the positioning hole; the second predetermined direction is orthogonal to the first predetermined direction. 
     
     
         9 . The handheld shower as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein the shower body comprises a front panel and a rear panel connected to the front panel; the positioning member comprises a spring and a positioning protrusion; the front panel has the outlet portion, and a part of the inlet channel is formed between the front panel and the rear panel; the rear side panel has an engaging hole, and an axial direction of the engaging hole is parallel to the second predetermined direction; the spring and the positioning member are disposed in the engaging hole; a side of the positioning protrusion is connected to an end of the spring, and the other side of the positioning protrusion protrudes out of the engaging hole. 
     
     
         10 .
