[0037] The principles and features of the present application are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the scope of the present application.
[0038] In the embodiments of the present application, the liquid outlet device may be a water outlet device (i.e., the liquid flowing out is water), or may be other types of liquid outlet devices (e.g., the liquid flowing out is detergent, disinfectant, etc.). The water outlet device may be a faucet with a foaming function, or may be a faucet bubbler or other types of liquid outlet devices. The following takes a water outlet shower (the liquid flowing out is water) as an example for detailed description.
[0039] like Figures 1 to 23 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a liquid outlet device.
[0040] The liquid outlet device comprises: a liquid outlet device body 1 and a liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2.
[0041] The liquid outlet device body 1 is provided with a mounting cavity 121 (such as Figure 3 ) and a liquid inlet 122 (as shown) communicating with the mounting cavity 121 Figure 7 shown).
[0042] The liquid outlet cover assembly 2 is at least partially located in the installation cavity 121, and together with the liquid outlet device body 1, encloses a liquid outlet area 1212 (such as Figure 7 The liquid outlet cover assembly 2 is provided with a liquid outlet cavity, and the two end walls of the liquid outlet cavity in the thickness direction are respectively provided with a first liquid outlet 21 and a second liquid outlet 22 communicating with the liquid outlet cavity, as shown in FIG. Figures 1 to 3 The liquid outlet cavity is located at the downstream side of the liquid outlet area 1212, and is configured to be able to communicate with the liquid outlet area 1212 through one of the first liquid outlet 21 and the second liquid outlet 22 to achieve liquid inlet, and to discharge liquid through the other of the first liquid outlet 21 and the second liquid outlet 22.
[0043] Furthermore, the first liquid outlet 21 and the second liquid outlet 22 have different liquid outlet forms, and the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2 is configured to be able to flip and switch relative to the liquid outlet device body 1 to switch the liquid outlet form of the liquid outlet device.
[0044] The liquid outlet device is a water outlet shower head, the liquid outlet device body 1 is a shower head body, and the liquid flowing out of the water outlet shower head is water.
[0045] When the liquid outlet cavity is connected with the liquid inlet 122 through the first liquid outlet 21 to realize water inflow and water outflow through the second liquid outlet 22, water flows through the liquid inlet 122, the liquid outlet area 1212, and the first liquid outlet 21 into the liquid outlet cavity, and is discharged through the second liquid outlet 22. Figure 8 As shown, the liquid outlet form of the liquid outlet device is determined by the structural form of the second liquid outlet 22.
[0046] When the liquid outlet cavity is connected with the liquid inlet 122 through the second liquid outlet 22 to realize water inflow and water outflow through the first liquid outlet 21, water flows through the liquid inlet 122, the liquid outlet area 1212, and the second liquid outlet 22 into the liquid outlet cavity, and is discharged through the first liquid outlet 21. Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the liquid outlet form of the liquid outlet device is determined by the structural form of the first liquid outlet 21.
[0047] Therefore, the liquid outlet device provided in the embodiment of the present application has two liquid outlet functions with different liquid outlet forms, and the switching of the two liquid outlet functions can be achieved by flipping the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2. In addition, the two liquid outlet functions share the same liquid outlet cavity and are not limited by the liquid outlet area. Therefore, the first liquid outlet 21 and the second liquid outlet 22 can be set as large-area water outlet nozzles, and the shape and distribution can be arbitrarily designed, so that the two liquid outlet functions of the liquid outlet device can achieve large-area liquid outlet and have a relatively full liquid outlet range, which is conducive to improving the user experience.
[0048] In some exemplary embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2 includes a first surface cover 24 and a second surface cover 25 that are connected to each other, and the first surface cover 24 and the second surface cover 25 surround the liquid outlet cavity. The first surface cover 24 is provided with a first liquid outlet 21, and the first surface cover 24 is provided with a second liquid outlet 22. The first surface cover 24 and the second surface cover 25 can be threadedly connected. The liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2 can also include a partition 26, which is located in the liquid outlet cavity and is provided with a liquid separation hole 261, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown. The number of the liquid separation holes 261 can be multiple, and the multiple liquid separation holes 261 can be evenly distributed, so that the liquid is evenly distributed in the liquid outlet cavity, thereby facilitating the uniform liquid discharge of the first liquid outlet 21 / the second liquid outlet 22. The first cover 24 and the second cover 25 can be processed and formed separately and then assembled, so that the size, structure and distribution form of the first liquid outlet 21 and the second liquid outlet 22 can be reasonably set according to needs, and it is also convenient to assemble the partition 26.
[0049] In some exemplary embodiments, Figure 3 , Figure 6 , Fig.17 and Fig.18 As shown, the first liquid passage port 21 includes a plurality of first liquid passage holes 211, and the second liquid passage port 22 includes a plurality of second liquid passage holes 221. The flow area of the first liquid passage holes 211 is smaller than the flow area of the second liquid passage holes 221. The plurality of first liquid passage holes 211 may be evenly distributed on one end wall of the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2. The plurality of second liquid passage holes 221 may be evenly distributed on the other end wall of the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2.
[0050] In this way, the shower head has two water outlet functions: large-hole water outlet (water enters the first liquid hole 211 and water exits the second liquid hole 221) and small-hole water outlet (water enters the second liquid hole 221 and water exits the first liquid hole 211). Figure 8 As shown), dirt can flow out easily and is not easy to be blocked; and the small hole water outlet function (such as Figure 5 and Figure 6Therefore, when the small hole is blocked, the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 can be flipped and switched to the large hole liquid outlet function, and the water flow will flow from the small hole to the large hole, and the water inlet and outlet functions at both ends of the small hole are switched to realize the backwashing function, and the blocked objects flushed out can also easily flow out from the large hole, thereby achieving the effect of backwashing and descaling, solving the pain points of users during use.
[0051] Of course, the first liquid passage opening 21 and the second liquid passage opening 22 may also adopt other structural forms, for example, the water passage areas may be equal, but the distribution forms may be different to form different liquid outlet forms.
[0052] In some exemplary embodiments, the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2 is detachably matched with the liquid outlet device body 1 .
[0053] In this way, by removing the liquid outlet cover assembly 2, turning the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 over on the outside of the liquid outlet device body 1 and then installing it back, the flipping and switching function of the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 can be realized. This is conducive to reducing the thickness of the liquid outlet device body 1 and achieving a thinning effect; it is also conducive to simplifying the structure of the liquid outlet device and reducing production costs; it is also convenient for comprehensive cleaning after disassembly.
[0054] In addition, the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2 is detachable, which is convenient for modular customization. It can also be equipped with multiple liquid outlet surface cover assemblies 2 with different liquid outlet forms. By replacing the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2, a new liquid outlet device can be formed to achieve more liquid outlet functions, and each liquid outlet function can be designed to have a full liquid outlet range.
[0055] For example, the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2 can be threadedly connected or snap-connected to the liquid outlet device body 1, so that the user can easily disassemble and assemble the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2.
[0056] Of course, the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 and the liquid outlet device body 1 may not be detachably matched, for example, they may be rotatably connected, and the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 can be flipped and switched by rotating the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 without removing the liquid outlet cover assembly 2; or the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 can be pulled out, flipped, and then installed back without removing the liquid outlet cover assembly 2.
[0057] In some exemplary embodiments, the liquid outlet device also includes: a locking mechanism, which cooperates with the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2 and is configured to be able to switch between a locked state of the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2 and an unlocked state of the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2, so that the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2 can be flipped and switched relative to the liquid outlet device body 1.
[0058] When the locking mechanism is switched to the locked state, the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 is locked and relatively fixed to the liquid outlet device body 1. When the locking mechanism is switched to the unlocked state, the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 is unlocked and can move freely relative to the liquid outlet device body 1 to achieve disassembly. The setting of the locking mechanism is conducive to improving the stability of the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 during use.
[0059] In some exemplary embodiments, the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 is provided with a locking mating portion. The locking mechanism comprises: a locking member 31 (such as Figure 3 The locking member 31 is movably connected to the liquid outlet device body 1 and is configured to be able to lock relative to the liquid outlet device body 1 in a locking position (such as Fig.10 ) and the unlocked position (as shown) of the disengaged locking mating portion Fig.12 The first driving mechanism is connected to the locking member 31, and is configured to drive the locking member 31 to move between a locking position and an unlocking position.
[0060] When the first driving member drives the locking member 31 to move to the locking position, the locking mechanism switches to the locking state. At this time, the locking member 31 cooperates with the locking matching part of the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2, and the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2 is locked to the liquid outlet device body 1, and the liquid outlet device can be used normally.
[0061] When the first driving member drives the locking member 31 to move to the unlocking position, the locking mechanism switches to the unlocking state. At this time, the locking member 31 is separated from the locking mating part of the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2, and the lock between the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2 and the liquid outlet device body 1 is unlocked, and the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2 can be removed from the liquid outlet device body 1.
[0062] The first driving mechanism may be a manual driving mechanism or an electric driving mechanism.
[0063] In some exemplary embodiments, the first driving mechanism includes: a first driving member and a first transmission assembly. The first transmission assembly is connected to the first driving member and the locking member 31, and is configured to drive the locking member 31 to move under the drive of the first driving member. The structural form of the first driving member and the first transmission assembly is not limited and can be configured as required.
[0064] Alternatively, the first driving mechanism may not include the first transmission assembly, and the first driving member is directly connected to the locking member 31 .
[0065] In some exemplary embodiments, the locking mating portion includes a limiting groove 23 provided on the outer side wall of the liquid outlet cover assembly 2, such as Fig.12 The locking member 31 includes a slider which is slidably connected to the liquid outlet device body 1 and is configured to be able to slide relative to the liquid outlet device body 1 along the depth direction of the limiting groove 23 .
[0066] When the slider slides into the limiting groove 23, it can support and limit the liquid surface cover assembly 2, preventing the liquid surface cover assembly 2 from being separated from the liquid discharge device body 1, and playing the role of locking the liquid surface cover assembly 2. When the slider is out of the limiting groove 23, the liquid surface cover assembly 2 can be unlocked, and the liquid surface cover assembly 2 can be freely separated from the liquid discharge device body 1.
[0067] In some embodiments, Fig.17 and Fig.18 As shown, the limiting groove 23 is provided on the outer side wall of the liquid outlet cover assembly 2, and the depth direction of the limiting groove 23 is perpendicular to the thickness direction of the liquid outlet cover assembly 2. The liquid outlet cover assembly 2 is arranged to enter and exit the installation cavity 121 along its thickness direction. For example, when the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 is roughly cylindrical, the thickness direction of the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 is its axial direction, and the depth direction of the limiting assembly is the radial direction of the liquid outlet cover assembly 2.
[0068] Of course, the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 is not limited to a cylindrical shape, and can also be a quadrangular prism or other shapes. The liquid outlet cover assembly 2 is configured to enter and exit the installation cavity 121 in a direction perpendicular to its thickness direction, that is, side-in and side-out. The depth direction of the limiting groove 23 can also be parallel to the thickness direction of the liquid outlet cover assembly 2, as long as the limiting block can support and limit the liquid outlet cover assembly 2.
[0069] In some exemplary embodiments, Figure 3 , Fig. 9 and Fig.11 As shown, the first transmission assembly includes: a swing rod 32 and a pin 33. The swing rod 32 is swingably connected to the liquid outlet device body 1 through the pin 33. One end of the swing rod 32 is limitedly matched with the slider to drive the slider to slide relative to the liquid outlet device body 1. The slider can slide back and forth along the depth direction of the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2. The extension direction of the pin 33 can be perpendicular to the sliding direction of the slider.
[0070] The specific shape of the swing rod 32 is not limited, for example, it can be roughly in the shape of a straight plate, with a shaft sleeve 321 protruding from the middle, and the pin 33 is passed through the shaft sleeve 321 and rotatably connected to the liquid outlet device body 1. The limiting matching mode of the swing rod 32 and the slider is also not limited, as long as the swing of the swing rod 32 can drive the slider to slide.
[0071] In some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, the slider is provided with a first insertion hole 311, and one end of the swing rod 32 is inserted into the first insertion hole 311 and can swing relative to the first insertion hole 311. One end of the swing rod 32 can be smaller than the size of the first insertion hole 311 (clearance fit), so that the swing rod 32 is inserted into the first insertion hole 311 and can swing relative to the slider within a certain angle.
[0072] In some exemplary embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the first transmission assembly further includes a push rod 34. The push rod 34 is slidably connected to the liquid outlet device body 1, and one end of the push rod 34 is limitedly matched with the other end of the swing rod 32, and is configured to drive the swing rod 32 to swing relative to the liquid outlet device body 1. The push rod 34 can reciprocate along the radial direction of the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2. The sliding direction of the push rod 34 can be consistent with the sliding direction of the sliding block that is linked and matched.
[0073] The specific shape of the push rod 34 is not limited, for example, it can be roughly in the shape of a straight plate. The limiting matching mode of the swing rod 32 and the push rod 34 is also not limited, as long as the sliding of the push rod 34 can drive the swing rod 32 to swing.
[0074] In some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, one end of the push rod 34 is provided with a second insertion hole 341, and the other end of the swing rod 32 is inserted into the second insertion hole 341 and can swing relative to the second insertion hole 341. The other end of the swing rod 32 can be smaller than the size of the second insertion hole 341 (clearance fit), so that the swing rod 32 is inserted into the second insertion hole 341 and can swing relative to the push rod 34 within a certain angle.
[0075] In some exemplary embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the first drive member includes a button 35. Figure 4 As shown, the button 35 is provided with a driving block 351, the driving block 351 is provided with a driving inclined surface 3511, and the push rod 34 is provided with a matching inclined surface 3421. Figure 6 The driving inclined surface 3511 and the matching inclined surface 3421 are stopped and matched, so that the button 35 can drive the push rod 34 to slide, and the movement direction of the button 35 is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the push rod 34. The matching inclined surface 3421 can be set at the other end of the push rod 34, or at other parts of the push rod, as long as it can reliably match with the driving inclined surface 3511 to drive the push rod 34 to move.
[0076] The button 35 can be configured to move along the thickness direction of the liquid outlet cover assembly 2. The push rod 34 can be configured to slide along the depth direction of the liquid outlet cover assembly limit groove 23. Through the cooperation of the driving inclined surface 3511 and the matching inclined surface 3421, the pressing movement of the button 35 in the thickness direction of the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 can be converted into a linear sliding movement of the push rod 34 along the depth direction of the limit groove 23. In addition, the cooperation of the two inclined surfaces (i.e., the driving inclined surface 3511 and the matching inclined surface 3421) is conducive to improving the cooperation reliability.
[0077] In other embodiments, the driving block 351 is provided with a driving inclined surface 3511 , and the driving inclined surface 3511 is engaged with the push rod 34 so that the button 35 can drive the push rod 34 to slide and the movement direction of the button 35 is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the push rod 34 .
[0078] Alternatively, the push rod 34 is provided with a matching inclined surface 3421 , and the driving block 351 is abutted against the matching inclined surface 3421 , so that the button 35 can drive the push rod 34 to slide and the movement direction of the button 35 is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the push rod 34 .
[0079] In other words, one of the driving inclined surface 3511 and the matching inclined surface 3421 can be omitted, that is, only one of the driving inclined surface 3511 and the matching inclined surface 3421 is retained, so that the pressing motion of the button 35 in the axial direction can be converted into a linear sliding motion in the radial direction of the push rod 34. A single inclined surface is conducive to simplifying the structure of the button 35 or the push rod 34, thereby helping to reduce production costs.
[0080] In some embodiments, Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the other end of the push rod 34 is provided with a third plug hole 342, and the matching inclined surface 3421 is provided on the hole wall of the third plug hole 342. At least part of the driving block 351 is inserted into the third plug hole 342. This is conducive to preventing the driving block 351 from being separated from the push rod 34, and is conducive to improving the matching reliability between the button 35 and the push rod 34.
[0081] Of course, the first driving member is not limited to the structural form of the button 35, and can also be operated in the form of a push button 54, a knob, a dial, etc., and the driving function of the first driving mechanism can be achieved by properly adjusting the first transmission component. Similarly, the locking member 31 is not limited to the structural form of a slider, and can also be operated in the form of a buckle, etc., and the locking function can be achieved by properly adjusting the first driving mechanism.
[0082] In some exemplary embodiments, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, there are multiple first transmission assemblies, and the multiple first transmission assemblies are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the liquid outlet cover assembly 2. The button 35 is provided with multiple drive blocks 351, and the multiple drive blocks 351 correspond to the multiple push rods 34 one by one. This is conducive to the balanced force of the liquid outlet cover assembly 2, thereby helping to improve the stability of the liquid outlet cover assembly 2. The limiting groove 23 can be an annular groove, which is convenient for matching with multiple sliders, and compared with the provision of multiple limiting grooves 23, this solution is conducive to reducing the processing accuracy requirements for the liquid outlet cover assembly 2.
[0083] In one embodiment, Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the number of first transmission assemblies is five, and the five first transmission assemblies are evenly spaced along the circumference of the liquid outlet cover assembly 2. Five push rods 34 are arranged radially, and the button 35 is located in the middle of the five push rods 34 and cooperates with the five push rods 34. The five push rods 34 cooperate with the five swing rods 32, and the five swing rods 32 cooperate with the five sliders. Therefore, by pressing the button 35, the five push rods 34 can be driven to slide radially inward along the liquid outlet cover assembly 2, and the five push rods 34 drive the five swing rods away from the slider to swing inward, so that the five swing rods close to the slider drive the five sliders to slide outward and escape from the limit groove 23 of the liquid outlet cover assembly 2, and the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 can be freely separated from the liquid outlet device body 1 to achieve disassembly.
[0084] In some exemplary embodiments, Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, a limiting protrusion 343 is provided in the middle of the push rod 34, and a stop portion 127 is provided in the liquid outlet device body 1, and the limiting protrusion 343 and the stop portion 127 are arranged with a relative spacing. The first driving mechanism also includes a first elastic member 36 limited between the limiting protrusion 343 and the stop portion 127, and the first elastic member 36 is configured to store elastic potential energy in the process of the push rod 34 being pressed and slid by the button 35 so as to use its reset elastic force to drive the push rod 34 to reset. The first elastic member 36 can be, but is not limited to, a spring.
[0085] In this way, after releasing the button 35, the push rod 34 can automatically reset under the action of the reset elastic force of the first elastic member 36. Since the push rod 34 cooperates with the button 35 and the swing rod 32, the push rod 34 can also drive the button 35 and the swing rod 32 to reset; and the swing rod 32 cooperates with the slider, so the swing rod 32 can also drive the slider to reset. In this way, the automatic reset of the first transmission assembly and the button 35 is achieved, that is, the locking mechanism automatically resets to the locked state. Therefore, when it is necessary to disassemble the liquid outlet cover assembly 2, it can be unlocked by pressing the button 35, and then the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 can be removed. Figure 12 to Figure 14 When the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 is installed, the button 35 can also be pressed to unlock. After the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 is installed in place, the button 35 can be released, and the locking mechanism can automatically reset to the locked state, locking the liquid outlet cover assembly, such as Figure 15 to Figure 16 shown.
[0086] The number of the first elastic members 36 is equal to and corresponds to the number of the push rods 34. The limiting protrusion 343 may be a plate-shaped structure, and the limiting protrusion 343 may also be provided with a positioning column 3431, and one end of the first elastic member 36 may be sleeved on the positioning column 3431 to prevent the first elastic member 36 from tilting or shifting, which is beneficial to improving the reliability of the first elastic member 36.
[0087] Alternatively, the position of the first elastic member 36 may be changed. For example, the first elastic member 36 may cooperate with the button 35 to reset the button 35 to achieve automatic reset of the locking mechanism. Alternatively, the first elastic member 36 may cooperate with the swing rod 32 (in the form of a torsion spring) to reset the swing rod 32 to achieve automatic reset of the locking mechanism. Alternatively, the first elastic member 36 may cooperate with the slider to reset the slider to achieve automatic reset of the locking mechanism.
[0088] In some exemplary embodiments, the end of the slider close to the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 is provided with an avoidance slope 312, such as Fig.14 As shown, the avoidance slope 312 is configured to avoid the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2 during the process of installing the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2 into the installation cavity 121.
[0089] In this way, during the installation of the liquid outlet cover assembly 2, the slider can be pushed to the unlocking position by pressing the liquid outlet cover assembly 2. Figure 14 to Figure 15 When the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 is installed in place, the slider can automatically return to the locked position under the action of the first elastic member 36, as shown. Fig.16 As shown, the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 is locked. Therefore, the installation process of the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 only requires pressing the liquid outlet cover assembly 2, which greatly improves the installation convenience of the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 and is conducive to improving the user's operating experience.
[0090] In some exemplary embodiments, the liquid outlet device further comprises a disengagement mechanism, which is configured to exert a force on the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2 after the locking mechanism is switched to the unlocked state, so as to drive the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2 to disengage from the liquid outlet device body 1 .
[0091] This helps reduce the difficulty of disassembling the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2, improves the convenience of disassembling the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2, and helps improve the user's operating experience.
[0092] In some exemplary embodiments, the ejection mechanism is located on the upstream side of the liquid outlet cover assembly 2. Figure 3 As shown, the ejection mechanism includes a top cover 41 and a second elastic member 42, and the top cover 41 is in a stop-fitting relationship with the liquid outlet cover assembly 2, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 The second elastic member 42 is located in the liquid outlet device body 1 and cooperates with the top cover 41 to use its restoring elastic force to make the top cover 41 exert an ejection force on the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2.
[0093] In this way, when in use, the top cover 41 can push against the liquid outlet cover assembly 2, which is helpful to prevent the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 from loosening, thereby improving the reliability of the liquid outlet device. When the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 needs to be disassembled, after the locking mechanism is switched to the unlocked state, the second elastic member 42 releases elastic potential energy to assist in pushing out the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 without the user having to forcefully pull out the liquid outlet cover assembly 2, thereby improving the convenience of disassembling the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 and improving the user's operating experience.
[0094] In addition, with the assistance of the disengagement mechanism, the user can disassemble the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 upwards, and when the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 pops up upwards, the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 can be taken down. This helps to prevent the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 from falling directly to the ground and being damaged or injuring the user when it is disassembled downwards.
[0095] like Figure 3 As shown, there may be a plurality of second elastic members 42 , and the plurality of second elastic members 42 are arranged at intervals, which is beneficial for balancing the force on the top cover 41 and preventing it from tilting.

The first liquid flow channel 43 can be, but not limited to, a circular flow channel, and the second liquid flow channel 44 can be, but not limited to, a circular flow channel. This is conducive to uniform liquid inflow into the liquid outlet cavity, and further conducive to uniform liquid discharge.
[0097] In some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, the circumferential edge of the top cover 41 is provided with a through flange 412 , which abuts against the circumferential end of the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2 and encloses a second liquid flow channel 44 together with the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2 .

[0099] In this way, the second elastic member 42 can be well limited, which is beneficial to improving the reliability of the second elastic member 42. Moreover, the restriction of the second elastic member 42 is also beneficial to preventing the top cover 41 from falling out of the liquid outlet device body 1 after the liquid outlet surface cover assembly 2 is disassembled.
[0100] Of course, after the liquid outlet cover assembly 2 is disassembled, the top cover 41 can also be pulled out with force to clean the top cover 41.
