[0029] The following is a detailed description of a preferred embodiment of the present invention:
[0030] like Figures 1 to 9 The embodiment shown provides a multi-functional shower head.
[0031] The multi-functional shower head includes a shower head housing; a soft rubber head 4 for scrubbing is provided on the front end face of the shower head housing, and a drive motor 5 is provided inside the shower head housing and is connected to the soft rubber head 4 for driving the soft rubber head 4 to rotate.
[0032] The front end face of the nozzle housing is provided with a water spray hole 11 and a shower gel spray hole 12. The interior of the nozzle housing is provided with a water flow channel and a shower gel flow channel. The water flow channel is used to connect the water spray hole 11 to an external water supply mechanism, and the shower gel flow channel is used to connect the shower gel spray hole 12 to an external shower gel supply mechanism.
[0033] When in use, this multi-functional shower head is driven by a motor 5 to rotate a soft rubber head 4. The user can place the soft rubber head 4 close to the skin and perform a scrubbing function under the rotation of the soft rubber head 4. In addition, this multi-functional shower head is equipped with a water channel and a shower gel channel. The user can control the shower head to spray water or shower gel by operating the switches of the external water supply mechanism and the shower gel supply mechanism. The user can then spray the shower gel onto the body to achieve the function of applying shower gel to the body.
[0034] In summary, this multi-functional shower head, in addition to its existing water spraying function, also integrates automatic application of shower gel and automatic scrubbing functions. It can completely and automatically realize the entire bathing process of spraying water to wet, applying shower gel, scrubbing, and spraying water to clean, reducing the workload of users during the bathing process. In particular, it greatly facilitates some people who cannot take care of themselves, and can greatly reduce or even completely eliminate their need for assistance from others during the bathing process.
[0035] During the shower, the user first turns on the external water supply mechanism, allowing water to flow into the shower head and out through the water channel and spray from the spray hole 11, achieving a moisturizing effect. Next, the user turns off the water supply mechanism and turns on the shower gel supply mechanism, allowing shower gel to enter the shower head, flow through the shower gel channel, and spray out from the shower gel spray hole 12, achieving the effect of applying shower gel. Then, the user turns off the shower gel supply mechanism and turns on the drive motor 5, causing the drive motor 5 to drive the soft rubber head 4 to rotate and bring the soft rubber head 4 close to the skin, thereby achieving a scrubbing effect. After scrubbing, the user turns off the drive motor 5 and turns on the water supply mechanism again for a final water spray cleaning, thus completing the shower process.
[0036] The water supply mechanism and the shower gel supply mechanism can be common liquid supply mechanisms available on the market. Their specific structures and working principles are existing technologies, well known to those skilled in the art, and are not the inventive point of this case, so they will not be described in detail here.
[0037] In this embodiment, the drive motor 5 is a geared motor.
[0038] In this embodiment, a circular gear 8 is provided inside the nozzle housing. The inner ring surface of the circular gear 8 has teeth facing inward. The circular gear 8 is fixedly connected to the soft rubber head 4. The drive motor 5 is provided with a forward-extending rotating shaft 51. The front end of the rotating shaft 51 is provided with a motor gear 52. The outer surface of the motor gear 52 has teeth facing outward. The motor gear 52 meshes with the circular gear 8, so that when the rotating shaft 51 rotates, the motor gear 52 drives the circular gear 8 and the soft rubber head 4 to rotate synchronously, thereby realizing the function of the drive motor 5 driving the soft rubber head 4 to rotate.
[0039] The nozzle housing includes a nozzle support 42 and a gear support 81. The soft rubber head 4 is fixedly connected to the nozzle support 42, and the ring gear 8 is fixedly connected to the gear support 81. The nozzle support 42 is provided with a female snap-fit head 43, and the gear support 81 is provided with a male snap-fit head 82, thereby forming a snap-fit connection between the nozzle support 42 and the gear support 81, and thus forming a fixed connection between the ring gear 8 and the soft rubber head 4.
[0040] The nozzle housing is provided with a motor fixing plate 53, and the drive motor 5 is fixedly connected to the motor fixing plate 53.
[0041] In this embodiment, the front end surface of the soft rubber head 4 is provided with a plurality of flexible protrusions 41, which can be made of flexible materials such as silicone. By setting the flexible protrusions 41, the friction between the soft rubber head 4 and human skin can be increased, thereby improving the washing effect and washing experience.
[0042] In this embodiment, the nozzle housing includes a front housing 1 and a rear housing 2, and also includes a connecting ring 3 for connecting the front housing 1 and the rear housing 2.
[0043] The connecting ring 3 is threadedly connected to the front housing 1; the front end of the rear housing 2 forms an outwardly protruding step 21, and the rear end of the connecting ring 3 forms an inner edge 31 that abuts against the step 21. Thus, when the connecting ring 3 is threadedly fixed to the front housing 1, it abuts against the step 21 forward through the inner edge 31, thereby pressing the rear housing 2 forward and fixing it to the rear end of the front housing 1, thus forming a fixed connection between the front housing 1, the rear housing 2, and the connecting ring 3.
[0044] In this embodiment, a liquid adapter 9 is provided inside the nozzle housing.
[0045] The water flow channels, from back to front, include a first water flow channel 61, a second water flow channel 62, and a third water flow channel 63. The first water flow channel 61 is located on the rear housing 2, the second water flow channel 62 is located in the liquid transfer member 9, and the third water flow channel 63 is located on the front housing 1. The rear end of the first water flow channel 61 is connected to the water supply mechanism, the front end of the first water flow channel 61 is connected to the rear end of the second water flow channel 62, the front end of the second water flow channel 62 is connected to the rear end of the third water flow channel 63, and the front end of the third water flow channel 63 is connected to the spray hole 11. Thus, water in the water supply mechanism passes through the first water flow channel 61, the second water flow channel 62, and the third water flow channel 63 in sequence before reaching the spray hole 11 and being sprayed out.
[0046] The shower gel channel, from back to front, includes a first shower gel channel 71, a second shower gel channel 72, and a third shower gel channel 73. The first shower gel channel 71 is located on the rear housing 2, the second shower gel channel 72 is located in the liquid adapter 9, and the third shower gel channel 73 is located on the front housing 1. The rear end of the first shower gel channel 71 is connected to the shower gel supply mechanism, the front end of the first shower gel channel 71 is connected to the rear end of the second shower gel channel 72, the front end of the second shower gel channel 72 is connected to the rear end of the third shower gel channel 73, and the front end of the third shower gel channel 73 is connected to the shower gel spray hole 12. Thus, the shower gel in the shower gel supply mechanism passes sequentially through the first shower gel channel 71, the second shower gel channel 72, and the third shower gel channel 73 before being sprayed out of the shower gel spray hole 12.
[0047] In this embodiment, the rear housing 2 is provided with a power outlet hole 22 so that the power cord of the drive motor 5 can extend to the outside and be connected to the power source.
[0048] In this embodiment, the water spray holes 11 are evenly distributed along the outer periphery of the front end face of the nozzle housing, thereby increasing the water spray area and improving the cleaning effect; the shower gel spray hole 12 is located in the center of the front end face of the nozzle housing, thereby concentrating the shower gel spray to the target position and reducing the waste of shower gel.
[0049] Since the soft rubber head 4, the water spray hole 11, and the shower gel spray hole 12 are all located on the front end face of the nozzle housing, the water spray hole 11 is arranged around the outer side of the soft rubber head 4, and the center of the soft rubber head 4 has a notch to avoid the shower gel spray hole 12, so that the three functions of spraying water, spraying shower gel, and scrubbing do not affect each other.
[0050] In this embodiment, it also includes a first sealing ring 111 and a first sealing groove 112, a third sealing ring 131 and a third sealing groove 132 on the front side of the front housing 1, a fourth sealing ring 141 and a fourth sealing groove 142, a fifth sealing ring 151 and a fifth sealing groove 152 on the rear side, a second sealing ring 121 and a second sealing groove 122 on the ring gear 8, a sixth sealing ring 161 and a sixth sealing groove 162, a seventh sealing ring 171 and a seventh sealing groove 172 on the rear side of the motor fixing plate 53, and an eighth sealing ring 181 and an eighth sealing groove 182 on the rear side of the liquid adapter 9; thereby achieving a sealing effect between the spaces in this shower head, ensuring smooth liquid flow and preventing liquid leakage.
[0051] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications or equivalent substitutions made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
