[0047] Embodiments of the present application provide a water outlet module 10, as shown in Figures 1-7 comprising a water outlet mounting base 1, a rotating water outlet assembly 4 and a ball head assembly 3.

[0048] The water outlet mounting base 1 has a water inlet.

[0049] The ball head assembly 3 comprises a first part 31 having a first ball head 311 and a second part 32 having a second ball head 321, wherein the first part 31 and the second part 32 are connected such that the first ball head 311 is movable relative to the second ball head 321, and the ball head assembly 3 has a through hole passing through the first ball head 311 and the second ball head 321; wherein the movable does not exclude the case that the first ball head 311 and the second ball head 321 have relative rotation in addition to the relative translation.

[0050] The rotating water outlet assembly 4 is arranged to be able to rotate relative to the water outlet mounting base 1 around a rotating center C, and the rotating water outlet assembly 4 comprises a rotating base 41 and a water outlet part mounted on the rotating base 41.

[0051] The first ball head 311 is rotatably installed on the water outlet mounting seat 1, and the second ball head 321 is rotatably installed on the rotating seat 41. Water entering the water inlet can enter the second ball head 321 from the first ball head 311 along the communication hole, and then enter the rotating water outlet assembly 4 from the second ball head 321, and then flow out from the water outlet component; during the rotation of the rotating water outlet assembly 4 relative to the water outlet mounting seat 1, the first ball head 311 is movable relative to the second ball head 321.

[0052] The technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the application is that the first ball head 311 and the second ball head 321 are arranged, and during the rotation of the rotating water outlet assembly 4 around the rotation center C relative to the water outlet mounting seat 1, the second ball head 321 rotates relative to the first ball head 311 and moves the first ball head 311, the movement of the second ball head 321 drives the first ball head 311 to rotate relative to the water outlet mounting seat 1, and the first ball head 311 and the second ball head 321 can move relative to each other during the movement. Therefore, the water outlet module in the application adopts a double-ball-head mode, which is more flexible than the single-ball-head structure in the prior art. In addition, in the double-ball-head scheme in the application, water enters the first ball head 311 from the water inlet of the water outlet mounting seat 1, enters the second ball head 321 from the first ball head 311 along the communication hole, and then enters the rotating water outlet assembly 4 from the second ball head 321. The flow of water in the water outlet module does not tightly hold the ball head on the installed structure, thereby solving the problem that the single ball head is tightly held in the spherical groove due to water pressure in the prior art, which makes it difficult to rotate the rotating water outlet module.

[0053] The rotation center C of the rotating water outlet assembly 4 can be a rotation center determined by the rotation connection between the rotating water outlet assembly 4 and the panel assembly. In an embodiment, the rotating seat 41 can be provided with a circular-arc-shaped housing portion 411 that is installed in cooperation with the water outlet mounting seat 1, and the center of the circular-arc-shaped housing portion 411 is located at the rotation center C. In this way, during the rotation of the rotating water outlet assembly 4, the circular-arc-shaped outer surface of the circular-arc-shaped housing portion 411 abuts against the water outlet mounting seat 1 to rotate.

[0054] Figure 6 And Figure 7 In the example, the rotating water outlet assembly 4 is rotationally connected with the panel assembly (including the panel body 7 and the decorative cover 6). The rotation connection between the rotating water outlet assembly 4 and the panel assembly enables the rotating water outlet assembly 4 to rotate around the rotation center C (the connection between the rotating water outlet assembly 4 and the panel assembly will be described in detail below), and the rotating seat 41 has a circular-arc-shaped housing portion 411 that is installed in cooperation with the water outlet mounting seat 1, and the center of the circular-arc-shaped housing portion 411 is located at the rotation center C of the rotating water outlet assembly 4. During the rotation of the rotating water outlet assembly 4 around the rotation center C, the second ball head 321 moves along the trajectory line M around the rotation center C.

[0055] In the example,Figure 6 Fig. 1 shows the water outlet module 10 in a first state, wherein the rotating water outlet assembly 4 is in a first position, Figure 7 Fig. 2 shows the water outlet module 10 in a second state, wherein the rotating water outlet assembly 4 is rotated to a second position, from Figure 6 and Figure 7 It can be seen that in the process of rotating the rotating water outlet assembly 4 from the first position to the second position, the second ball head 321 moves along the trajectory line M, and the movement of the second ball head 321 along the trajectory line M will cause the first ball head 311 to rotate and the distance between the second ball head 321 and the first ball head 311 to change.

[0056] In an embodiment, the first part 31 with the first ball head 311 and the second part 32 with the second ball head 321 each have a through hole, one of the first part 31 and the second part 32 has a connecting rod, the connecting rod is inserted into and movable in the through hole of the other, so that the second ball head 321 is movable relative to the first ball head 311.

[0057] In an embodiment, the water outlet module 10 further comprises a first limiting member 2 and a second limiting member 42; the first part 31 is arranged to be inserted into the water outlet mounting seat 1 from the water inlet of the water outlet mounting seat 1, the first limiting member 2 is arranged to limit the first ball head 311 in the water outlet mounting seat 1 from the water inlet; the second part 32 is arranged to be inserted into the rotating seat 41 from the side away from the first ball head 311 and extend to the other side to be connected with the first part 31, and the second limiting member 42 is arranged to limit the second ball head 321 in the rotating seat 41.

[0058] As Figure 3In the example shown, the first component 31 includes a first ball head 311 and a first connecting portion 312, the second component 32 includes a second ball head 321 and a second connecting portion 322, and the water outlet mounting base 1 includes a water inlet pipe section 11 with a water inlet, a mounting main housing 12 with a receiving cavity, and an annular limiting portion 13 located between the water inlet pipe section 11 and the mounting main housing 12. The rotating water outlet assembly 4 is installed in the receiving cavity of the mounting main housing 12. Specifically, the first connecting portion 312 of the first component 31 is inserted from the water inlet of the water inlet pipe section 11, the first ball head 311 is limited within the water inlet pipe section 11 by the annular limiting portion 13, and the first limiting member 2 is connected to the water inlet pipe section 11 by a threaded connection, thereby limiting the first ball head 311 on the side opposite to the annular limiting portion 13. The second connecting portion 322 of the second component 32 is a connecting rod inserted into the through hole of the first component 31. This connecting rod extends from the inner side of the arc-shaped housing portion 411 to the outer side and is inserted into the through hole of the first component 31 to connect to it. A sealing ring is provided between the connecting rod and the hole wall of the first component 31. The inner side of the arc-shaped housing portion 411 is provided with an annular structure with internal threads. The second ball head 321 is located within this annular structure, and the second limiting member 42 is threadedly connected to this annular structure to limit the second ball head 321 within the annular structure. It is understood that the first connecting portion 312 of the first component 31 can also be inserted into the through hole of the second connecting portion 322 of the second component 32 for connection.

[0059] In order to ensure that after water enters the inlet of the water outlet mounting base 1, all water can enter the rotating water outlet assembly 4 through the connecting hole of the ball head assembly 3 without leakage, such as... Figure 3 As shown, a sealing ring is provided between the outer surface of the first ball head 311 and the water inlet pipe section 11 of the water outlet mounting seat 1 to prevent water entering the water inlet pipe section 11 from leaking from the gap between the first ball head 311 and the water outlet mounting seat 1. A sealing ring is provided between the second ball head 321 and the rotating seat 41 to prevent water entering the rotating water outlet assembly 4 from leaking from the gap between the second ball head 321 and the rotating seat 41. A sealing ring to prevent water leakage is provided between the second connecting part 322 of the second component 32 and the through hole of the first component 31.

[0060] In one example, the water outlet component includes a water outlet cover 48 mounted on the rotating base 41 and a water flow switching mechanism located between the rotating base 41 and the water outlet cover 48. The water flow switching mechanism is configured to alternately switch the water flowing into the rotating water outlet component 4 between multiple water flow paths, so that water flows out from the water outlet cover 48 in multiple spray patterns.

[0061] like Figures 2-5 The example shown (in combination) Figures 8-10), the water flow switching mechanism comprises a rotatable blocking piece 45, a water distribution plate 46 with a first opening 461 and a second opening 462, a jet plate 47 between the water distribution plate 46 and the water outlet surface cover 48, a first water cavity A is formed between the water distribution plate 46 and the jet plate 47, a second water cavity B is formed between the jet plate 47 and the water outlet surface cover 48, the jet plate 47 is provided with a through hole 471 and a jet hole 472 (see Figure 10 The jet plate 47 is shown), the through hole 471 is connected with the first opening 461. The blocking piece 45 is arranged to alternately block the first opening 461 and the second opening 462 during rotation. When the blocking piece 45 blocks the second opening 462 and opens the first opening 461, the water flow is switched to the first water flow path. When the blocking piece 45 blocks the first opening 461 and opens the second opening 462, the water flow is switched to the second water flow path. The first water flow path is that the water flow enters the second water cavity B from the first opening 461 through the through hole 471 and is sprayed from the water outlet surface cover 48. The second water flow path is that the water flow enters the first water cavity A from the second opening 462, and the water in the first water cavity A enters the second water cavity B through the jet hole 472 and is sprayed from the water outlet surface cover 48.

[0062] Wherein, Figure 10 As shown in the figure, the side of the jet plate 47 facing the water outlet surface cover 48 is also provided with a plurality of support columns 473 and a circumferential wall surrounding the jet hole 472. The support columns 473 and the circumferential wall 475 are on the water outlet surface cover 48, so that the second water cavity B surrounded by the circumferential wall 475 is formed between the jet plate 47 and the water outlet surface cover 48. The side of the jet plate 47 away from the water outlet surface cover 48 is provided with a column body 474 with a through hole 471. As shown in the figure, Figure 9 The column body 474 is on the water distribution plate 46, and the first water cavity A is formed between the water distribution plate 46 and the jet plate 47.

[0063] Figure 8 As shown in the figure, the blocking piece 45 blocks the second opening 462 of the water distribution plate 46 and opens the first opening 461 in one embodiment. The water flow directly enters the second water cavity B from the first opening 461 of the water distribution plate 46 and the through hole 471 of the jet plate 47. The water in the second water cavity B is sprayed from the water outlet hole on the water outlet surface cover 48. Figure 9 As shown in the figure, the blocking piece 45 blocks the first opening 461 of the water distribution plate 46 and opens the second opening 462 in one embodiment. The water flow enters the first water cavity A from the second opening 462 of the water distribution plate 46. The water in the first water cavity A enters the second water cavity B through the plurality of jet holes 472 on the jet plate 47. The water in the second water cavity B is sprayed from the water outlet hole on the water outlet surface cover 48. As shown in the figure, Figure 10The plurality of jet holes 472 on the jet plate 47 are arranged in groups of three, and each jet hole 472 is arranged in the same circumferential direction, so that each group of jet holes 472 spirally sprays water to the second water cavity B, so that the water sprayed from the water outlet cover 48 has the required water spray pattern. Of course, the jet holes 472 can also be arranged in other forms of holes as required, so that the water outlet cover 48 sprays other forms of water spray.

[0064] It can be understood that the water rotating the water outlet assembly 4 can also be sprayed in more water spray modes alternately. For example, the water distribution plate 46 is provided with three openings, the three openings are opened alternately, and the water flowing out of the three openings is arranged to have different water flow paths, so that three different forms of water spray are sprayed from the water outlet cover 48.

[0065] In an embodiment, in order to enable the blocking piece 45 to rotate, the water flow switching mechanism further comprises an impeller 44 with an eccentric shaft, and the water flow can drive the impeller 44 to rotate; the side of the water distribution plate 46 facing the blocking piece 45 is provided with a barrel 463 with internal teeth, the blocking piece 45 is provided with external teeth, and the blocking piece 45 is installed on the eccentric shaft of the impeller 44, the impeller 44, the blocking piece 45 and the barrel 463 form a cycloid reducer, so that the rotation of the impeller 44 drives the rotation of the blocking piece 45, and the blocking piece 45 alternately blocks the first opening 461 and the second opening 462 during rotation.

[0066] As shown in the example, Figure 3 The rotating water outlet assembly 4 further comprises a water sealing cover 43 fixed relative to the rotating seat 1, and the water sealing cover 43 cooperates with the barrel 463 to form a containing cavity containing the impeller 44 and the blocking piece 45, wherein the barrel 463 is provided with a plurality of water inlet holes (not shown in the figure) spaced apart in the circumferential direction, so that water can enter the containing cavity from the water inlet holes to drive the impeller 44 to rotate; wherein the impeller 44 is rotatably installed on the rotating shaft of the water sealing cover 43, as shown in Figure 3 The side of the water sealing cover 43 away from the barrel 463 abuts against the second limiting piece 42, and the second limiting piece 42 can be provided with a structure for limiting the circumferential direction of the water sealing cover 43, so as to avoid the circumferential rotation of the water sealing cover 43, that is, the second limiting piece 42 limits the circumferential direction and the axial direction of the water sealing cover 43. It can be understood that the water sealing cover 43 can also be fixed on the water outlet mounting seat 1.

[0067] It can also be understood that in order to enable the blocking piece 45 to rotate, the impeller 44 can also directly drive the blocking piece 45, and is not limited to the way that the impeller 44, the blocking piece 45 and the barrel 463 form a cycloid reducer.

[0068] The embodiment of the present application also provides a water outlet device, as shown in Figures 1-5As shown, the water outlet device comprises a valve body 8, a panel assembly and a water outlet module 10 as described above; wherein the water outlet mounting seat 1 of the water outlet module 10 is mounted on the valve body, and the rotating water outlet assembly 4 is rotatably connected with the panel assembly as a rotating water outlet assembly 4 capable of rotating around the rotation center C.

[0069] In an embodiment, the water outlet device further comprises a rotating ring 6, which is rotatably connected with the panel assembly through a first rotating shaft 481, and the rotating water outlet assembly 4 is rotatably mounted on the rotating ring 6 through a second rotating shaft 52; wherein the first rotating shaft 481 is perpendicular to the second rotating shaft 52, and the intersection of the axes of the first rotating shaft 481 and the second rotating shaft 52 is the rotation center C of the rotating seat 41, and the rotating water outlet assembly 4 can realize 360-degree rotation around the rotation center C in front and back and left and right directions by using two intersecting shafts, and the rotation is more flexible.

[0070] Figure 6 and Figure 7 In the example shown, the rotating seat 41 has a circular-arc-shaped housing portion 411, and the center of the spherical head housing portion 411 is the rotation center C, so the axes of the first rotating shaft 481 and the second rotating shaft 52 intersect at the center of the circular-arc-shaped housing portion 411. In this way, in the process of rotating the rotating water outlet assembly 4 around the first rotating shaft 481 and the second rotating shaft 52, the circular-arc-shaped outer surface of the circular-arc-shaped housing portion 411 moves along the water outlet mounting seat 1, that is, the rotating seat 1 rotates under the support of the water outlet mounting seat 1, so that the rotating stability of the rotating water outlet assembly 4 is good.
