[0023] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0024] The term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the invention. In the description of the invention, it should be understood that the terms "upper," "lower," "top," "bottom," etc., indicating orientation or positional relationships based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, are used only for the convenience of describing the invention and for simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of the invention. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. Moreover, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of the invention described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein.
[0025] Referring to the accompanying drawings, a shower head with microbubble function includes a shower head body 10, a water outlet channel 11 on the shower head body, a microbubble device 20 on the water outlet channel, and an air inlet channel 12 on the shower head body that can communicate with the microbubble device. In use, water flows from the water outlet channel to the microbubble device, and air also flows from the air inlet channel to the microbubble device. The two mix in the microbubble device before being discharged as water. The water flow treated by the microbubble device contains bubbles, which can eliminate body odor and remove dirt attached to the body, achieving a deep cleaning effect.
[0026] Furthermore, the microbubble device includes a first body 21, on which an air inlet 22 connected to an air inlet channel is provided, and a water inlet 23 connected to a water outlet channel is also provided on the first body. A mixing chamber 24 connected to the air inlet and the water inlet is provided in the first body. Air entering from the air inlet and water entering from the water inlet are mixed in the mixing chamber, so that the water flowing out contains bubbles. A filter screen 25 is provided between the mixing chamber and the water outlet of the first body. The filter screen can break up the air again to form smaller bubbles.
[0027] To better generate bubble water, a partition 26 is provided between the filter screen and the mixing chamber. The partition screen is provided with a flow channel 27 that connects the filter screen and the mixing chamber. The diameter of the flow channel gradually decreases along the fluid flow direction. For details, please refer to the attached drawings of the specification. In one embodiment, the cross-section of the flow channel is circular. The gradual decrease in the diameter of the flow channel can increase the speed of the water flow, thereby impacting the filter screen at the outlet end of the flow channel and forming small bubbles, thus enhancing the shower experience.
[0028] Furthermore, the showerhead body also includes a second body 30 that can connect with the first body. The second body has a vent 31 that connects to the air intake channel. The air intake end of the vent 31 is connected to the air intake channel, and the air outlet end is connected to the air intake of the first body. The second body also has a through hole 32 located between the vent 31 and the air intake channel. An elastic cup 40 is installed in the through hole that can connect or disconnect the vent 31 and the air intake channel. When water flows, a negative pressure is formed in the mixing chamber. Under the action of this negative pressure, the elastic cup will deform, thus connecting the vent 31 and the air intake channel. In this state, water and air can mix. When water does not flow, that is, when the showerhead does not produce water, the negative pressure disappears, and the elastic cup returns to its original state. At this time, the vent 31 and the air intake channel are not connected, which also prevents water from flowing into the air intake channel, thus providing a one-way function.
[0029] In one embodiment of the present invention, a cover 33 is provided inside the through hole and is connected thereto. An air inlet 34 is provided on the end cap of the cover. The outer circumference of the elastic cup can be tightly attached to or separated from the inner circumference of the cover. In use, under the action of negative pressure, the outer circumference of the elastic cup separates from the inner circumference of the cover, thus forming a gap. Air enters from the air inlet channel, flows into the through hole through the air inlet, and then flows from the gap and the vent to the microbubble device to mix with the water flow. When the shower head does not produce water, the outer circumference of the elastic cup is tightly attached to the inner circumference of the cover. At this time, air cannot flow from the air inlet to the vent, and water also cannot flow from the vent to the air inlet.
[0030] Preferably, the second body is further provided with a hollow column 35, the hollow part of which is connected to the air passage. An opening 36 is provided on the side wall of the hollow column to connect the air passage and the air inlet. Air flows from the gap to the opening, then from the hollow part of the hollow column to the air passage, and finally to the microbubble device. In one embodiment, the opening can be a hollow space or a slit from top to bottom on the peripheral wall of the hollow column. For details, please refer to the attached drawings of the specification.
[0031] To ensure overall sealing, a protrusion 37 is provided below the end cap of the cover to mate with an elastic cup. In one embodiment, multiple air inlets are provided, arranged in a ring on the cover and located around the protrusion. The protrusion is connected to the upper end of the hollow column to prevent water from flowing out from the end of the hollow column. To secure the cover to the second body, a flange 38 is provided on the outer periphery of the cover, and a groove 39 is provided on the outer periphery of the second body to mate with the flange. The second body forms a plug-in portion 28 on the outer periphery of the vent, which is plugged into the air inlet.
[0032] More specifically, the present invention states that the shower head body includes a handheld part 13 and a water outlet panel 14, the water inlet end of the water outlet panel is connected to the water outlet end of the microbubble device, and the water outlet area of the water outlet panel is greater than or equal to the sum of the water inlet areas of the microbubble device.
[0033] In this invention: 1. The showerhead body contains at least one microbubble device, preferably two microbubble devices, which results in a larger water flow rate. 2. The microbubble device, in conjunction with a flexible rubber cup, is designed to prevent leakage by drawing in air; it also allows for switching between raw water and microbubble water when water is dispensed from the spout, effectively preventing backflow. 3. The water outlet area of the water outlet panel must be greater than or equal to the sum of the water inlet areas of the microbubble modules.
[0034] In one embodiment of the present invention, a small hole 15 is provided between the handheld part and the water outlet panel, and air flows through this small hole into the air inlet channel.
[0035] The foregoing description illustrates and describes preferred embodiments of the present invention. As previously stated, it should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the forms disclosed herein and should not be construed as excluding other embodiments. It can be used in various other combinations, modifications, and environments, and can be altered within the scope of the inventive concept described herein through the foregoing teachings or techniques or knowledge in related fields. Any modifications and variations made by those skilled in the art that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention should be within the protection scope of the appended claims.
