[0085] In addition, to enable the spring 14 between the first water outlet surface cover 11 and the descaling part 12 to more effectively abut the abutting portion 122 against the fixed seat 3, the spring 14 is arranged at the position of the descaling part 12 corresponding to the abutting portion 122. Referring to Figure 6 As shown, on the side of the descaling part 12 facing the first water outlet surface cover 11, a positioning recess is arranged at the position corresponding to each abutting portion 122. One end of the spring 14 is mounted in the positioning recess, and the other end abuts against the first water outlet surface cover 11.
[0086] Figures 9-13 The structure of the fixed seat 3 in an example is shown. The side of the fixed seat 3 facing the first water outlet assembly 1 is provided with the first water supply port 301 communicating with the mounting hole 303 and the first groove portion 308 communicating with the first water supply port 301. The side of the fixed seat 3 facing the second water outlet assembly 2 is provided with the second water supply port 302 communicating with the mounting hole 303 and the second groove portion 309 communicating with the second water supply port 302.
[0087] After the first water outlet assembly 1 and the second water outlet assembly 2 are mounted on the fixed seat 3, the first groove portion 308 forms the first water cavity 10 between the fixed seat 3 and the first water outlet assembly 1, and the second groove portion 309 forms the second water cavity 20 between the fixed seat 3 and the second water outlet assembly 2.
[0088] The first water cavity 10 is located between the fixed seat 3 and the water distribution body 13, and the water in the first water cavity 10 can enter the space between the water distribution body 13 and the descaling member 12 through the plurality of first water passing holes 132 provided on the water distribution body 13, and then enter the space between the descaling member 12 and the first water outlet surface cover 11 through the plurality of second water passing holes 123 on the descaling member 12, and then flow out from the plurality of first water outlet holes of the first water outlet surface cover 11.
[0089] To realize the sealing of the first water cavity 10, a cylinder body 306 is provided on the fixed seat 3, and the annular groove between the cylinder body 306 and the mounting shaft 304 is a first groove portion 308, as shown in Figure 5 The side of the water distribution body 13 facing the fixed seat 3 is provided with a cylindrical portion extending into the cylinder body 306, and a first sealing ring 16 is provided between the cylindrical portion and the cylinder body 306, so that the second water cavity 20 between the water distribution body 13 and the fixed seat 3 is sealed.
[0090] The side of the fixed seat 3 facing the first water outlet assembly 1 is also provided with two abutting portions 307 each having an inclined surface 3071, and the two abutting portions 122 of the descaling member 12 are each abutted on one abutting portion 307. Since the abutting portion 122 moves along the inclined surface 3071 during rotation, the movement track is a circular arc track, so the abutting portion 307 can be an arc-shaped plate body provided around the cylinder body 306, and the inclined surface 3071 is the end surface of the arc-shaped plate body facing the abutting portion 122.
[0091] In one embodiment, the second water outlet assembly 2 includes a second water outlet surface cover 21 having a plurality of second water outlet holes, and the second water outlet surface cover 21 is detachably mounted on the fixed seat 3.

By rotating the gland 5, the gland 5 is detached from the fixed seat 3, and then the second water outlet surface cover 21 can be detached, and the second water outlet surface cover 21 can be cleaned and descaled after being detached. Thus, both the first water outlet assembly 1 and the second water outlet assembly 2 can be descaled after being used for a period of time.
[0093] As Figure 5As shown, the second water outlet surface cover 21 is arranged on the side of the fixed seat 3 with the second groove portion 309, and after the second water outlet surface cover 21 is installed on the fixed seat 3, the second groove portion 309 forms a second water cavity 20 between the second water outlet surface cover 21 and the fixed seat 3, and the water in the second water cavity 20 can flow out from the second water outlet surface cover 21. To realize the sealing of the second water cavity 20, a second sealing ring 22 is arranged between the second water outlet surface cover 21 and the fixed seat 3, and after the gland 5 is screwed to the fixed seat 3, the second sealing ring 22 is compressed to realize sealing.

For example, the second water outlet assembly 2 can also be arranged with a gear portion cooperating with the driving gear 63, that is, the driving gear 63 drives the gear-shaped portion of the first water outlet assembly 1 and the gear-shaped portion of the second water outlet assembly 2 at the same time during rotation, and automatic descaling of the two water outlet assemblies is realized by rotation of the rotating assembly 6.
[0095] In addition, the water outlet device further comprises a shell 4, which is annular in structure, is arranged around the fixed seat 3, and one end of the shell 4 cooperates with the gland 5 and the other end cooperates with the first water outlet assembly 1, so as to cover the internal structure.
[0096] One side of the shell 4 is provided with an opening hole for the rotating assembly 6 to pass through, referring to Figure 8 and combining Figure 5 and Figure 19 , after the rotating body of the rotating assembly 6 passes through the opening hole of the shell 4, the driving gear 63 is installed on the rotating body, wherein the driving gear 63 is circumferentially limited on the rotating body, so that the rotating body can rotate together with the driving gear 63, then the rotating body is continued to be inserted into the mounting hole 303 of the fixed seat 3, and the snap ring 64 is clamped in the annular clamping groove of the rotating body, and the fixed seat 3 is provided with a fixed portion 310 for abutting against the inner side of the shell 4, and the snap ring 64 is clamped between the fixed portion 310 and the driving gear 63. In this way, the snap ring 64 not only axially limits one end of the driving gear 63 (the other end of the driving gear 63 is limited by the fixed seat 3), but also under the action of the snap ring 64, the rotating assembly 6 cannot be taken out of the fixed portion 310 and the shell 4, and the shell 4, the rotating assembly 6 and the fixed seat 3 are installed together by the snap ring 64.
[0097] Next, the switching process of the water outlet device in one embodiment will be described according to Figures 18-21 (combining Figures 1-17 the structure shown).

Among them, in the first angular position, the abutting portion 122 of the descaling component 12 abuts at a lower position of the inclined surface 3071 of the abutting portion 307.
[0099] The rotating assembly 6 is rotated by 180°, and is rotated from the first angular position to a second angular position, and in the second angular position, the water outlet of the rotating assembly 6 is aligned with the second water supply port 302, and the second water outlet assembly 2 is in water outlet. As shown in the state. Figure 20 and Figure 21 As shown in the state.
[0100] In the process of rotating the rotating assembly 6 from the first angular position to the second angular position, the driving gear 63 drives the toothed portion 133 of the first water outlet assembly 1 to rotate, and the first water outlet assembly 1 rotates, and the abutting portion 12 of the descaling component 12 is kept abutting on the inclined surface 3071 of the abutting portion 307 of the fixed seat 3 under the action of the spring 14, and in the process of rotating the first water outlet assembly 1 relative to the fixed seat 3, the abutting portion 122 moves along the inclined surface 3071 from the lower position of the inclined surface to the high position, thereby pushing the descaling component 12 to move towards the first water outlet cover 11, and the plurality of descaling needles 121 move along the first water outlet hole, and the descaling of the first water outlet hole is realized.
[0101] In this embodiment, in the process of rotating the rotating assembly 6 from the first angular position to the second angular position, the first water outlet assembly 1 rotates by 85°, and the descaling needle 121 moves along the first water outlet hole by about 3mm. Of course, the rotation angle of the first water outlet assembly and the movement distance of the descaling needle 121 can be set as needed.
[0102] The rotating assembly 6 is reversely rotated by 180°, and is rotated from the second angular position to the first angular position, the driving gear 63 drives the first water outlet assembly 1 to reversely rotate, the abutting portion 122 of the descaling component 12 moves along the inclined surface 3071 from the higher position to the lower position, and under the action of the spring 14, the descaling component 12 moves away from the first water outlet cover 11, and the descaling needle 121 reversely moves along the first water outlet hole.
[0103] Thus, by switching the rotating assembly 6, the automatic descaling of the first water outlet assembly 1 can be realized.
