Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a water outlet device, in particular to a switching component and a shower device comprising the component. Background Art
[0002] At present, with the improvement of people's living standards, people's demand for cleaning and care is also increasing. People need a shower device (such as a shower head, a hand-held faucet in a wash basin, etc.) that is more suitable for cleaning and caring for facial skin, private parts, skin allergies, skin wounds and other parts that require special care, and hope that the shower device can also spray or flow out normal water flow and water splash, so that the shower device can meet both general cleaning and flushing needs and special cleaning and care needs (such as gentle cleaning, moisturizing function, etc.); now, people generally add a spray device to the shower device, such as setting an ultrasonic generator in a water cavity, so that the shower device can spray soft spray water, so that the cleaning process is more gentle.
[0003] The existing shower device that can spray spray water has the following defects:

However, when the water outlet mechanism is in use, the spray water source needs to be equipped with a separate water tank. When spray water is needed, water needs to be added to the water tank separately. When spray water is used, the water inlet valve of the water outlet mechanism needs to be closed separately to avoid the normal shower water flow affecting the spray water flow. Although the water outlet mechanism has the function of spraying water, it is troublesome to operate.
[0006] (2) It does not have a switching component suitable for switching between the spray water state and the normal shower water state:
[0007] In the existing shower devices, in order to achieve the switching of different water spray states, a rotatable adjustment part is generally provided. By rotating the adjustment part, water flows out of the device through different water paths to achieve the adjustment of different water spray forms (such as: the utility model patent of "a shower head with a switchable water outlet channel structure" with application number 201220404189.7); however, the shower device that can spray spray water needs to be provided with a spray device in order to achieve the spray water.

[0054] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. It should be noted that, under the premise of no conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form a new embodiment.
[0055] It should be noted that the “connection” mentioned in the present invention may be a direct connection or an indirect connection.
[0056] Embodiment 1:
[0057] like Figure 1-6As shown, the present embodiment provides a switching assembly 10, which includes a switch 11, an adjusting member 12 and a fixing member 13; a reset member is provided between the switch 11 and the adjusting member 12; the adjusting member 12 includes a conversion portion 121, a water passing portion 122 and a trigger arm 123, the water passing portion 122 is provided with a first water passing port 1221 and a second water passing port 1222; the fixing member 13 has an installation cavity 131, and the fixing member 13 is provided with a first water inlet 132, a second water inlet 133, a first water outlet 134 and a second water outlet 135 which are communicated with the installation cavity 131 , the outer wall of the water-passing portion 122 abuts against the inner wall of the mounting cavity 131; when the switch 11 moves toward the direction close to the adjusting member 12, the switch 11 pushes the conversion portion 121, and the water-passing portion 122 moves relative to the mounting cavity 131 in the first direction, so that the first water-passing port 1221 approaches the first water inlet 132; or the water-passing portion 122 moves in the second direction, so that the second water-passing port 1222 approaches the second water inlet 133; the water-passing portion 122 is used to move in the first direction to a first position or in the second direction to a second position, and the first direction is parallel to and opposite to the second direction (in Figure 1 As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the first direction and the second direction are horizontal directions perpendicular to the pressing direction of the switch 11; the trigger arm 123 extends in the second direction; when the adjusting member 12 is in the first position, the first water inlet 132, the first water outlet 1221, and the first water outlet 134 are connected in sequence to form a first water path; when the adjusting member 12 is in the second position, the second water inlet 133, the second water outlet 1222, and the second water outlet 135 are connected in sequence to form a second water path, and the trigger arm 123 is used to abut against an external trigger block to connect the circuit.
[0058] Among them, by setting the outer wall of the water flow portion 122 to abut against the inner wall of the installation cavity 131, when the outer wall of the water flow portion 122 is blocked between the first water inlet 132 and the first water outlet 134, the first water path cannot be connected, which is helpful to realize the adjustment and switching function of the water path; and by extending the trigger arm 123 in the second direction, and because the trigger arm 123 and the water flow portion 122 move simultaneously, when the switching component 10 is used on a shower device provided with a spray device, it can be achieved that when the water flow portion 122 is located in the second position, the second water path is connected, and the trigger arm 123 can be moved to abut against the trigger block to connect the spray device circuit, thereby realizing both the connection of the spray water path and the connection of the spray circuit.
[0059] It should be noted that the water flow portion 122 may have multiple water flow ports, and the fixing member 13 may be provided with multiple water inlets and water outlets. For example, the water flow portion 122 may also have a third water flow port, and the fixing member 13 may also be provided with a third water inlet and a third water outlet. When the water flow portion 122 moves to the third position, the third water inlet, the third water flow port and the third water outlet are connected in sequence to form a third waterway. Among them, the first position and the second position of the water flow portion 122 mentioned in this embodiment are the extreme positions on both sides. Between these two positions, the water flow portion 122 may also have several water flow positions, and the water flow portion 122 may be connected to a waterway when it is located in one of the positions.
[0060] Specifically, through the cooperation between the switch 11 and the conversion part 121 and the water flow part 122, the pressure applied to the switch 11 can be converted into a driving force to drive the water flow part 122 to move, so as to adjust the relative position between the water flow part 122 and the fixing member 13, that is, the connection state of at least two water paths can be adjusted; and during operation, only the switch 11 needs to be pressed to switch the water paths, which is convenient to operate; at the same time, due to its special structural setting, the switching component 10 can be installed between the water inlet 20 and the water outlet 30 of the shower device (such as between the handle and the cover of the shower head), so that compared with the existing structure in which the switching component 10 is arranged on the water outlet 30 (cover), the switching component 10 has the advantage that the internal space of the water outlet 30 is not occupied by the switching component 10, so that it is suitable for shower devices that require a larger installation space in the water outlet 30.
[0061] Preferably, in order to better realize the function of "pressing the switch 11 to adjust the relative position of the water flow portion 122 relative to the installation cavity 131", so that the adjusting member 12 can be stably driven to move in the first direction or the second direction by pressing different positions of the switch 11, the switch 11 is configured as a first switch 111 and a second switch 112 that are separated, the first switch 111 having a first foot 1111, and the second switch 112 having a second foot 1121; the conversion portion 121 includes a first inclined surface 1211 and a second inclined surface 1212; when the first switch 111 moves in a direction approaching the conversion portion 121, the first foot 1111 pushes the first inclined surface 1211, and the water flow portion 122 moves in the first direction; when the second switch 112 moves in a direction approaching the conversion portion 121, the second foot 1121 pushes the second inclined surface 1212, and the water flow portion 122 moves in the second direction. By setting the matching structure of the switch 11 foot against the inclined surface of the conversion part 121, the pressure applied to the switch 11 can be converted into the power to drive the conversion part 121 to move in the first direction or the second direction. The structure is simple, and the relative position of the water passing part 122 with respect to the installation cavity 131 can be well adjusted to further adjust the water path. Of course, the switch 11 can also be integrally formed, with two feet at the bottom of the switch 11. By pressing different positions of the switch 11, the first foot 1111 or the second foot 1121 can be moved downward to push the conversion part 121.
[0062] Specifically, in addition to the above-mentioned driving method by the switch 11 foot cooperating with the inclined surface, the following can also be used: Figure 6 The structure shown realizes the function of the water flow portion 122 moving relative to the installation cavity 131 .
[0063] As described above, when the relative movement between the water passage 122 and the mounting cavity 131 is driven by the switch 11 foot cooperating with the inclined surface, the connection relationship between the switch 11, the adjustment member 12 and the fixing member 13 is preferably connected in the following manner to achieve the relative movement between the water passage 122 and the mounting cavity 131:
[0064] The installation cavity 131 is provided with installation openings at both ends, the conversion part 121 is located outside the installation cavity 131, and the two ends of the water passing part 122 pass through the installation openings on both sides respectively, and the water passing part 122 is connected to the conversion part 121; a groove is provided on the conversion part 121, and the two ends of the groove are respectively provided with a first inclined surface 1211 and a second inclined surface 1212. When the first foot 1111 of the first switch 111 is pressed, it is inserted into the groove to press the first inclined surface 1211, and the vertical pressure is converted into a horizontal moving force through the first inclined surface 1211; the cooperation relationship between the second foot 1121 and the second inclined surface 1212 is similar;
[0065] Of course, the connection relationship between the switch 11, the adjusting member 12 and the fixing member 13 can also be connected in the following manner: a convex block structure protruding toward the switch 11 is provided on one side of the conversion portion 121, and the other side is connected to the water flow portion 122. A first inclined surface 1211 and a second inclined surface 1212 are respectively provided on both sides of the convex block. The water flow portion 122 and the conversion portion 121 are both located in the mounting cavity 131. A slider is provided at the bottom of the water flow portion 122. A slide groove is provided in the mounting cavity 131 of the fixing member 13. The water flow portion 122 is inserted into the slide groove through the slider. A foot through hole is provided above the fixing member 13. The first foot 1111 and the second foot 1121 pass through the foot through holes respectively. When the first foot 1111 or the second foot 1121 presses against the first inclined surface 1211 or the second inclined surface 1212, the conversion portion 121 drives the water flow portion 122 to slide along the slide groove to connect the first waterway or the second waterway, and so on.
[0066] Preferably, on the basis of the above structure, in order to avoid the switch 11 foot from being unable to accurately press against the inclined surface when moving downward, and to ensure the stability of the switching process, the switching assembly 10 also includes a limit member 14, the limit member 14 is provided with at least two limit through holes 141, the first foot 1111 and the second foot 1121 pass through the limit through holes 141, the limit through holes 141 are used to limit the displacement of the first foot 1111 and the second foot 1121 in the third direction and the fourth direction; the third direction is perpendicular to the first direction, and the fourth direction is parallel to and opposite to the third direction; the limit member 14 is provided with a first connecting portion, and the conversion portion 121 is provided with a second connecting portion 1213, the first connecting portion is used to cooperate with the second connecting portion 1213 to limit the relative displacement of the limit member 14 and the conversion portion 121 in the third direction and the fourth direction.
[0067] Specifically, the outer peripheral walls of the first foot 1111 and the second foot 1121 abut against the inner wall of the limiting through hole 141 when the switch 11 is in an unpressed state or in a pressed state, and the first connecting part is a sliding block, and the second connecting part 1213 is a sliding groove. The side wall in the width direction of the sliding block abuts against the inner wall of the sliding groove, and the sliding block can slide relative to the sliding groove along its length direction; through the setting of the limiting through hole 141, the foot can accurately press against the inclined surface during the process of pressing to press against the inclined surface or resetting to disengage from the inclined surface, and the switching stability of the switching component 10 is good; and through the setting of the first connecting part and the second connecting part 1213, the limiting member 14 not only plays a limiting role, but also will not affect the movement of the conversion part 121 after being pressed by the foot, and the structural setting is ingenious.
[0068] Preferably, in order to facilitate the placement of the water passing portion 122 of the adjusting member 12 in the installation cavity 131, the water passing portion 122 and the conversion portion 121 are detachable, and in order to better realize the connection between the water passing portion 122 and the conversion portion 121 after passing through the installation cavity 131, and in order to better transmit the power of the conversion portion 121 to the water passing portion 122, the adjusting member 12 also includes a push-pull portion 124, which is connected to the conversion portion 121, and the push-pull portion 124 includes a transverse arm, and extension arms are respectively extended at both ends of the transverse arm, and both ends of the water passing portion 122 are respectively fixed to the two extension arms.
[0069] Preferably, in order to better realize the connection between the conversion part 121, the push-pull part 124, the water flow part 122, and the fixing part 13, the push-pull part 124 includes a first push-pull part 124 and a second push-pull part 124, the first push-pull part 124 includes a first transverse arm and a first extension arm, and the second push-pull part 124 includes a second transverse arm and a second extension arm; the first transverse arm and the second transverse arm are detachably connected; the two ends of the water flow part 122 are detachably connected to the first extension arm and the second extension arm respectively.
[0070] Preferably, in order to fix the water flow portion 122 at a certain position (a position where a certain water channel can be connected) when adjusting the water channel, and in order to allow the user to have a sense of gears when switching the water channel and the water outlet type, structures that can cooperate with each other are provided on the adjustment member 12 and the fixing member 13 to improve the sense of operating gears and enhance the user experience.
[0071] Specifically, the push-pull portion 124 is arranged outside the fixing member 13, and the push-pull portion 124 is provided with a locking portion 1241. The fixing member 13 is provided with a first locking portion 136 and a second locking portion 137. The locking portion 1241 is a protrusion or a groove. The first locking portion 136 and the second locking portion 137 are grooves or protrusions. The protrusions are used to snap into the grooves and cooperate with the grooves; when the adjusting member 12 moves to the first position, the locking portion 1241 cooperates with the first locking portion 136, and when the adjusting member 12 moves away from the first position, the locking portion 1241 is disengaged from the first locking portion 136; when the adjusting member 12 moves to the second position, the locking portion 1241 cooperates with the first locking portion 136, and when the adjusting member 12 moves away from the second position, the locking portion 1241 is disengaged from the first locking portion 136.
[0072] Specifically, the groove used for locking is provided with a locking groove, and inclined surfaces are provided on both sides of the shallow groove. When the conversion part 121 and the fixing part 13 move relative to each other, the protrusion and the groove move relative to each other, and the protrusion slides into the groove and can be locked in the locking groove. At this time, a gear sense is generated, and a certain water channel is connected; when the user needs to switch the water channel, the switch 11 is pressed, thereby driving the protrusion to move relative to the groove, and the protrusion can slide out along the inclined surface under the thrust.
[0073] It should be noted that, based on the structural foundation of the switching assembly 10, in order to enrich the water outlet state of the shower device, the manufacturer can set several more water channels according to needs. For example, an Nth water inlet and an Nth water outlet connected to the installation cavity 131 are set on the fixing member 13, and an Nth water outlet is further set on the water pass portion 122, so that the water pass portion 122 is used to connect the Nth water inlet, the Nth water pass, and the Nth water outlet when it moves to the Nth position (between the first position and the second position) to realize the connection of the Nth water channel.
