Benefits of technology

"The present invention provides a shower head with water purification function that can be easily handled, with a well-balanced structure and improved operability. The shower head has a holding part with a connection terminal and a head part with a shower delivery port, and a flow path switching valve and a delivery flow switching valve that can switch between purified water and non-purified water. The water purification cartridge is incorporated in the holding part, and the flow paths are formed in a way that allows for easy switching between the purified water and non-purified water. The shower head with water purification function is lightweight, compact, and has good operability."

Problems solved by technology

As a result, the shape and the structure are also restricted.
The production becomes also difficult.
With the one having the water quality purification cartridge housed in the head part, the head part becomes heavy compared to the body, thereby the weight balance of the shower head becomes bad, making it hard to use.

Abstract

It is an object of the present invention to provide a shower head with water purification function capable of easing restrictions on a shape, structure and storage capacity of a water quality switching valve, and also providing a well-balanced shape and structure for easier handling. A water quality purification cartridge is built in a holding part, and a purified water flow path passing through the water quality purification cartridge and a raw water flow path not passing through the water quality purification cartridge are formed by the incorporation of this water quality purification cartridge. A flow path switching valve which switches a flow path between the purified water flow path and the raw water flow path is incorporated in a head part, a straight delivery port is also provided at a place where the shower delivery port is formed, and a delivery flow switching valve which switches between a delivery flow from the straight delivery port and a delivery flow from the shower delivery port is incorporated. The flow path switching valve and the delivery flow switching valve are formed controllably from the outside of the head part independently of each other.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional of application Ser. No. 10 / 019,297, filed May 7, 2002.FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0002] The present invention relates to a shower head with water purification function, used in a kitchen, cook room, toilet or bathroom, and having an ability of purifying water and / or hot water discharged at the time of use. BACKGROUND ART [0003] As a shower head having an ability of purifying water and / or hot water, attached to a washstand or a shower used in a toilet or a bathroom, there has been heretofore used a chlorine removing shower head described in, for example, Japanese Registered Utility Model Publication No. 3007614. [0004] This chlorine removing shower head has a water quality purification cartridge for purifying the water quality, and a switching valve for switching water and / or hot water discharged from the shower between purified water and raw water, housed therein. [0005] Problem [0006] In such a conventional chlorine removing shower head, the swit...
