Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of shower equipment technology, and more particularly to a foaming shower. Background Technology

[0002] People usually squeeze shower gel or shampoo onto their hands or a bath sponge and rub it with their skin or hair to create foam. The foam can make the cleaning effect better, but this showering method is not convenient enough. Some existing showers can directly add shower gel into the water pipes connected to the shower head, so that the water sprayed from the shower head is mixed with shower gel foam, making it more convenient for users to use shower gel while showering.

[0003] Some existing showerheads allow users to directly add shower gel or shampoo into the water supply connected to the shower head, mixing shower gel foam with the water sprayed from the shower head. This makes it more convenient for users to use shower gel or shampoo while showering. However, there are several problems: Showerheads typically only support one or two types of shower gel or shampoo. Each type uses a pump to draw liquid from the storage tank to the foaming component for foaming before being output. The more shower gel or shampoo needed, the more pumps are required, leading to increased installation space requirements, resulting in a larger showerhead size and higher costs. In addition, the water outlet of existing showerheads mixes clean water and foam. After using the foaming liquid, foam residue remains in the outlet, causing the clean water to be foamy for a period of time when clean water is needed. This is inconvenient and prevents users from getting clean water immediately when needed, resulting in a poor user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0042] The following is in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Figures 1 to 7 The technical solution of the present invention will be further illustrated through specific embodiments.

[0043] The present invention provides a foaming shower, comprising a housing 1, a solenoid valve 2, several liquid storage tanks 3, a liquid pump 4, a clean water inlet assembly 5, a function control assembly 6, a foaming assembly 7, and a water outlet assembly 8;

[0044] The solenoid valve 2, liquid pump 4, clean water inlet assembly 5, function control assembly 6, foaming assembly 7 and water outlet assembly 8 are respectively disposed inside the housing 1;

[0045] The functional control component 6 includes a water inlet housing 61, a functional control valve core 62, and several contact sensing devices 63.

[0046] The output end of the clean water inlet component 5 is connected to the input end of the water inlet housing 61, the clean water output end 601 of the water inlet housing 61 is connected to the clean water port 801 of the water outlet component 8, and the foam water output end 602 of the water inlet housing 61 is connected to the water inlet port 701 of the foaming component 7.

[0047] Several of the aforementioned contact sensing devices 63 are disposed on the outer periphery of the water inlet housing 61;

[0048] The functional control valve core 62 is provided with a trigger block 64. The functional control valve core 62 drives the trigger block 64 to rotate, which can trigger the contact sensing device 63. The contact sensing device 63 is electrically connected to the solenoid valve 2.

[0049] Several of the liquid storage tanks 3 are respectively connected to the input end of the solenoid valve 2, the output end of the solenoid valve 2 is connected to the input end of the liquid pump 4, and the output end of the liquid pump 4 is connected to the liquid inlet port 702 of the foaming component 7.

[0050] The foam port 802 of the water outlet component 8 is connected to the foam output port 703 of the foaming component 7.

[0051] Specifically, some existing showerheads allow users to directly add shower gel or shampoo into the water path connected to the shower head, mixing shower gel foam with the water sprayed from the shower head. This makes it more convenient for users to use shower gel or shampoo while showering. However, there are several problems: Showerheads typically only support one or two types of shower gel or shampoo. Each type uses a liquid pump 4 to draw liquid from the storage tank to the foaming component 7 for foaming before outputting. The more shower gel or shampoo needed, the more liquid pumps 4 are required, leading to increased installation space requirements, larger showerhead size, and relatively higher costs. In addition, the water outlet device of existing showerheads mixes clean water and foam. After using the foaming liquid, foam residue remains in the water outlet device, causing the clean water to be foamy for a period of time when clean water is needed. This is inconvenient and prevents users from getting clean water immediately when needed.

[0052] The working principle of the water outlet device in this embodiment is as follows:

[0053] When a user selects a shower gel or shampoo, rotating the function control valve core 62 to the corresponding position triggers the corresponding contact sensor 63. The contact sensor 63 then sends a signal to the solenoid valve 2, simultaneously activating the liquid pump 4. This pump draws the corresponding shower gel or shampoo and delivers it through the solenoid valve 2 to the foaming assembly 7. At the same time, the clean water inlet assembly 5 delivers a mixture of hot and cold water to the inlet housing 61, and then from the foam output end to the foaming assembly 7. The clean water and shower gel or shampoo in the foaming assembly 7 mix and foam, then the foam is output from the foam port 802 of the water outlet assembly 8 to the water outlet assembly 8, and finally to the shower head, etc., for the user's use. This invention connects multiple shower gels or shampoos to the solenoid valve 2, controlling the selection of the foam liquid through the solenoid valve 2. Only one liquid pump is needed, effectively compressing space and allowing the shower to use multiple types of foam while maintaining a compact structure, saving installation space, and effectively reducing costs.

[0054] When the user selects clean water, they rotate the function control valve core 62 to the corresponding position. At this time, the liquid pump 4 and solenoid valve 2 do not work. The clean water inlet assembly 5 delivers the clean water mixed with hot and cold water to the inlet housing 61, and then outputs it directly from the clean water output end 601. It enters the outlet assembly 8 from the clean water port 801 and is output to the shower head, etc., for the user's use. During this process, the clean water will not enter the foaming assembly 7 and will not carry out residual foam. The clean water is directly output to the outlet assembly 8, so clean water can be obtained immediately when switching the function control valve core 62, avoiding a large amount of foam after switching, making it more convenient to use.

[0055] It should be further explained that the liquid pump 4 is a peristaltic pump. The peristaltic pump can input water and shower gel or shampoo. The water and shower gel or shampoo are drawn into the peristaltic pump for mixing, which helps improve foaming efficiency. Furthermore, the number of peristaltic pumps is not limited to one; it can be two or more. For example, two peristaltic pumps can be set, one to extract body wash liquid and the other to extract hair wash liquid. The number of peristaltic pumps can be flexibly set according to the type and quantity of liquid to be extracted, ensuring efficient liquid supply.

[0056] To further explain, foaming fibers are installed inside the water outlet component 8. When the foaming function is used, the foam liquid can be further foamed when it passes through the water outlet component 8, so that the foam liquid mixed with gas is foamed again through the foaming fibers, making the foam denser and richer, which is beneficial to improving the user experience.

[0057] Furthermore, the clean water inlet assembly 5 includes a temperature control valve core 51 and a mixing tank 52;

[0058] The mixing tank 52 is provided with a cold water inlet 521 and a hot water inlet 522. The temperature control valve core 51 is provided at the cold water inlet 521 and the hot water inlet 522. The temperature control valve core 51 is used to control the ratio of cold water and hot water entering the mixing tank 52 through the cold water inlet 521 and the hot water inlet 522. The output end of the mixing tank 52 is connected to the input end of the water inlet shell 61.

[0059] Specifically, the rotation of the temperature control valve core 51 can change the inflow rate of cold water inlet 521 and hot water inlet 522. When the inflow rate of cold water inlet 521 decreases, the inflow rate of hot water inlet 522 will increase accordingly. Conversely, when the inflow rate of cold water inlet 521 increases, the inflow rate of hot water inlet 522 will decrease accordingly. This changes the ratio of cold and hot water entering the mixing tank 52 from the cold water inlet 521 and hot water inlet 522, thereby changing the temperature of the output mixed water and providing a suitable temperature for the user according to their needs.

[0060] Furthermore, the bottom of the mixing tank 52 is provided with a water outlet 523, the temperature control valve core 51 is provided with a side water outlet 511, and when the temperature control valve core 51 rotates, the side water outlet 511 can be connected to the water outlet 523. The housing 1 is provided with a lower water outlet 110, and the water outlet 523 is connected to the lower water outlet 110.

[0061] Specifically, the water outlet 523 at the bottom of the mixing tank 52 is the second output end, and the lower water outlet 110 is correspondingly set at the bottom of the housing 1. When the temperature control valve core 51 is rotated to the corresponding position, the water in the mixing tank 52 will flow out from the side outlet 511 of the temperature control valve core 51, and after passing through the water outlet 523, it will flow out from the lower water outlet 110. The lower water outlet 110 can be connected to other faucets and other water outlet devices for water use, which can achieve diversified and multifunctional water use effects.

[0062] Furthermore, the shower also includes an air pump 9, the output end of which is connected to the air inlet port 704 of the foaming component 7.

[0063] Specifically, the air pump 9 is connected to the air inlet port 704 to pump air into the foam liquid for mixing, which can make the foam richer. The foam liquid is output from the foam output port 703, enters the water outlet component 8, and is finally output to the shower head, etc. to provide foam for users, which can make the output foam richer and improve the user experience.

[0064] Furthermore, the foaming component 7 also includes a foam transfer element 71. The input end of the foam transfer element 71 is connected to the foam output port 703 of the foaming component 7, and the output end of the foam transfer element 71 is connected to the foam port 802 of the water outlet component 8. The foam transfer element 71 is disposed above the foaming component 7 and the water outlet component 8. The input end and the output end of the foam transfer element 71 are respectively provided with partition blocks 72, and the input end of the foam transfer element 71 is provided with an air inlet port 704.

[0065] Specifically, the foaming structure directly mixes shower gel, water, and gas in a cavity. This not only generates significant noise, but also dilutes the shower gel when added to the water due to the large water flow from the shower head, resulting in poor foaming and insufficiently dense foam. This reduces the cleaning effect of the shower gel and leads to a poor user experience.

[0066] Since the water-liquid mixture and the gas-liquid mixture are separated by the partition block 72, the clean water and shower gel or shampoo are mixed in the foaming flow regulating valve core 75 and then enter the foam transfer component 71 for gas-liquid mixing. By separating the gas chamber and the liquid chamber, the noise in the pipeline can be effectively reduced.

[0067] The partition block 72 is a conical boss, and the conical boss has a conical groove in its recess, with a through hole in the conical groove. Specifically, the conical boss has a conical groove inside, and under pressure, the foam liquid enters the foam transfer component 71 along the conical groove. The conical groove acts as a guide, and after the water and liquid are mixed, they concentrate and enter the foam transfer component 71 through the through hole at the bottom of the conical groove. This helps to accelerate the mixing speed of water and shower gel or shampoo, improves mixing efficiency, and helps to improve the foaming effect.

[0068] The partition block 72 and the foam transfer component 71 are integrally formed.

[0069] Specifically, the partition block 6 is connected to the inner wall of the foam transfer component 71 on all four sides. The one-piece molded structure can prevent leakage. When removing the foam transfer component 71, the partition block 6 can also be removed directly, making the operation more convenient.

[0070] Furthermore, the partition block 72 includes a first conical guide 721 and a second conical guide 722. The first conical guide 721 is disposed at the input end and the output end of the foam transfer member 71, and the second conical guide 722 is disposed at the output end of the foam transfer member 71. A plurality of speed-reducing baffles 73 are disposed between the input end and the output end of the foam transfer member 71.

[0071] Specifically, the foam liquid first flows upward through the first conical guide 721 into the foam transfer member 71, and then flows downward through the second conical guide 722 to the water outlet mechanism. The first and second conical guides 721 and 722 are funnel-shaped along the water flow direction. The foam liquid is concentrated and guided by the first and second conical guides 721 and 722, which helps to accelerate the mixing speed of clean water and shower gel or shampoo, improves mixing efficiency and helps to improve foaming effect. The speed reduction baffle 73 set in the foam transfer member 71 can reduce the flow speed of the foam liquid, and at the same time, it can fully mix the foam liquid with the gas input from the air inlet 704 of the foam transfer member 71, which can make the output foam richer and denser, and improve the user experience.

[0072] Furthermore, the shower also includes a battery box 10, which is disposed on one side of the housing 1. A removable battery 101 is disposed inside the battery box 10, and the battery 101 is electrically connected to the contact sensing device 63 and the solenoid valve 2 respectively. A locking member 102 is provided on one side of the opening of the battery box 10.

[0073] Specifically, the battery 101 inside the battery box 10 is removable. Rotating the locking member 102 allows the locking member 102 to extend or retract from the opening of the battery box 10. When the battery 101 is depleted, the locking member 102 can be retracted from the opening to remove the battery 101. When installing the battery 101, the battery 101 is inserted into the battery box 10, and the locking member 102 is extended from the opening to limit the battery 101 and prevent it from falling out. The operation is simple and convenient.

[0074] Furthermore, the foaming component 7 includes a foaming shell 74, a foaming flow regulating valve core 75, and a regulating component 77.

[0075] The foaming flow regulating valve core 75 is rotatably disposed inside the foaming shell 74;

[0076] The regulating component 77 is disposed on the outer periphery of the foaming shell 74. The regulating component 77 is used to drive the foaming flow regulating valve core 75 to rotate inside the foaming shell 74, thereby adjusting the water-liquid ratio during foaming.

[0077] Specifically, this embodiment includes an adjustment component 77. Driving the adjustment component 77 allows rotation of the foaming flow regulating valve core 75. Rotation of the foaming flow regulating valve core 75 adjusts the liquid inlet port 702 and the water inlet port 701, thereby adjusting the ratio of clean water and shower gel or shampoo for foaming. This results in different foam shapes due to different ratios, making the foam produced by this foaming device more diverse. Users can adjust according to their preferences, further improving the user experience.

[0078] Furthermore, the adjustment assembly 77 includes a rotating handle 771 and a transmission rod 772. One end of the transmission rod 772 is connected to the middle of the rotating handle 771, and the other end of the transmission rod 772 is inserted into the foaming shell 74 and connected to the foaming flow regulating valve core 75.

[0079] Specifically, when it is necessary to adjust the ratio between the amount of clean water entering the system and the amount of shower gel or shampoo entering the system, the rotating handle 771 is manually rotated. The rotating handle 771 drives the transmission rod 772 to rotate, which in turn drives the foaming flow regulating valve core 75 to rotate, thereby changing the ratio between the amount of clean water entering the system and the amount of shower gel or shampoo entering the system.

[0080] The bottom of the foaming flow regulating valve core 75 is provided with a sealing groove, and the sealing groove is provided with a sealing ring.

[0081] Specifically, the foam housing 74 is provided with holes for the transmission rod 772 to pass through and connect to the foam flow regulating valve core 75. To prevent the foam liquid inside the foam housing 74 from leaking out, a sealing ring is installed between the sealing groove of the foam flow regulating valve core 75 and the inner wall of the foam housing 74, thereby achieving a seal and effectively preventing foam liquid leakage.

[0082] The bottom of the foamed shell 74 is provided with a limiting groove, and a positioning block is provided on one side of the transmission rod 772. The positioning block is limited and positioned in the limiting groove.

[0083] Specifically, in the process of adjusting the ratio by rotating the handle 771, the ratio is changed by the rotation of the positioning block within the limit groove. This avoids the situation where rotating the handle 771 would cause the ratio to be uncertain due to a 360-degree rotation. The ratio is determined by the position of the positioning block within the limit groove, making the ratio more intuitive and easier to use.

[0084] Furthermore, the shower also includes a water flow transfer component 11, which includes a clean water channel 111 and a foam water channel 112. The input end of the clean water channel 111 is connected to the clean water output end 601 of the water inlet housing 61, and the output end of the clean water channel 111 is connected to the clean water port 801 of the water outlet assembly 8. The input end of the foam water channel 112 is connected to the foam water output end 602 of the water inlet housing 61, and the output end of the foam water channel 112 is connected to the water inlet port 701 of the foaming assembly 7.

[0085] Specifically, when foam liquid is needed, clean water enters the foam water channel 112 from the foam water output end 602 of the water inlet shell 61, and enters the foaming component 7 along the channel to mix with shower gel or shampoo to create foam. The foam liquid is then output to the water outlet component 8 and finally to the shower head, etc., to provide foam for the user.

[0086] When clean water is needed, it enters the clean water channel 111 from the clean water output end 601 of the water inlet housing 61, and flows into the water outlet assembly 8 along the channel. The clean water will then be directly output to the shower head and other devices to provide clean water to the user. During this process, the clean water will not enter the foaming assembly 7 and will not carry out any residual foam. The clean water is directly output to the water outlet assembly 8 through the clean water channel 11141. Clean water can be obtained immediately when the function control component 6 switches functions, making it more convenient to use.

[0087] The water outlet component 8, the functional control component 6, and the water flow transfer component 11 are integrally molded. Specifically, the water outlet component 8, the functional control component 6, and the water flow transfer component 11 are integrally molded, which can be achieved through injection molding. This helps to improve the sealing and stability of the structure, makes assembly and installation more convenient, and increases operational efficiency.
