Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a top spray, in particular to a top spray with an easy-to-replace filter element. Background Art
[0002] Currently, overhead shower heads with filter cartridges on the market generally have the problem of troublesome filter cartridge replacement. Because the installation position of overhead shower heads is relatively high, many users need to stand on a stool to reach it. In addition, in order to replace the filter cartridge, users need to disassemble the overhead shower head, replace the filter cartridge, and then reassemble the overhead shower head, which is a step-by-step operation that consumes time and energy.
[0003] In order to improve the convenience of replacing the filter element, patent document CN220195183U proposes a solution, namely, designing the filter element to be quickly removed and installed from the center of the water outlet. However, this also makes it impossible to apply the conventional water outlet rotation structure to this type of overhead shower, so that this type of overhead shower no longer has the function of switching the water outlet mode by rotating the water outlet. Summary of the invention
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is how to combine the water outlet rotating structure with the filter element quick-release structure, so as to improve the convenience of replacing the filter element and realize the quick release and installation of the filter element while retaining the function of switching the water outlet mode by rotating the water outlet.
[0005] In order to solve this technical problem, the present invention redesigns the structure of the shell and changes the installation position of the filter element.
[0006] The present invention provides a top showerhead with an easy-to-replace filter element, which comprises a shell, a water outlet body and a filter element, the filter element having a water inlet end and a water outlet end, the shell having a top showerhead water inlet located above the water outlet body and at least one shell water outlet for supplying water to the water outlet body; the water outlet body supports at least two water outlet modes, and different water outlet modes correspond to different water outlet channels that are not connected to each other and are arranged in the water outlet body; the water outlet body is rotatably connected to the shell body, and by rotating the water outlet body relative to the shell body, the shell water outlet is connected to the water outlet channels of the water outlet body corresponding to different water outlet modes, thereby realizing the switching of the water outlet mode of the top showerhead; the shell body also has a filter chamber for accommodating the filter element and a filter element installation port, and the filter chamber is horizontally arranged Above the water outlet, the filter element is installed into the filter chamber from the outside of the top spray through the filter element installation port, and the top spray also includes a sealing cover for sealing the filter element installation port in a detachable manner; the top spray water inlet is connected to the filter chamber through a water supply channel, and the shell water outlet is directly connected to the filter chamber; when the filter element is installed in the filter chamber, the water inlet end of the filter element covers the connection between the filter chamber and the water supply channel, and the connection between the filter chamber and the water supply channel is defined as a first zone, and the space of the filter chamber outside the first zone and the filter element is defined as a second zone, and the second zone is connected to the water channel of the shell water outlet, and the water flowing into the water supply channel from the top spray water inlet flows into the filter element through the first zone of the filter chamber, and then flows to the shell water outlet through the second zone of the filter chamber. Water flows through the top spray water inlet, water supply channel, filter element, space in the filter chamber not occupied by the filter element (second zone), shell water outlet and water outlet in sequence. Water flowing into the top spray from the top spray water inlet is filtered by the filter element before flowing out of the top spray from the water outlet. The filter chamber is located above the water outlet, the filter element installation port faces the side of the shell, and the filter element quick-release structure and the water outlet rotation structure do not interfere with each other.
[0007] Preferably, the filter element is straight-cylindrical, with one end being the water inlet end and the other end being the water outlet end. The water outlet end of the filter element is fixedly connected to the sealing cover in a detachable manner, and the sealing cover is fixedly connected to the housing in a detachable manner. When the sealing cover is removed, the filter element is fixed on the sealing cover and taken out together with the sealing cover, thereby avoiding the problem of the filter element falling off or being inconvenient to take out after the sealing cover is opened. Not preferably, the filter element may also have no fixed connection relationship with the sealing cover, for example, the sealing cover is hinged to the housing, and the filter element installation port is detachably sealed while being connected to the housing in a non-detachable manner.
[0008] The filter element can be detachably fixed to the sealing cover in various ways. In one of the preferred embodiments, a plurality of L-shaped support strips are provided on the inner ring wall of the sealing cover, and the outer wall of the water outlet end of the filter element is inserted into each L-shaped support strip with interference fit. With only a little force, the old filter element can be pulled out of the sealing cover and a new filter element can be inserted. The operation is relatively convenient, and the structure is relatively simple and low-cost. At the same time, the above-mentioned arrangement can form a water-passing space with water communication between the filter element and the sealing cover, and between the filter element and the inner wall of the filter chamber through the L-shaped support strips, which can effectively increase the flow area between the water outlet end of the filter element and the sealing cover, and promote the flow rate of the second zone of the filter chamber; of course, the present invention does not exclude other detachable fixing methods of the filter element and the sealing cover, one of which is that the filter element is fixed to the sealing cover by screws.
[0009] The sealing cover can be detachably fixed to the housing in various ways. For example, a water outlet sealing ring is sleeved on the sealing cover. When the sealing cover is mounted on the filter element installation port, the water outlet sealing ring abuts against the chamber wall of the filter chamber, so that water cannot flow out of the filter chamber from the filter element installation port; the sealing cover has a knob and at least two circumferential clamping blocks. The chamber wall of the filter chamber is provided with a clamping groove corresponding to the circumferential clamping block. The sealing cover is rotated by pinching the knob so that the circumferential clamping block is clamped into the clamping groove, thereby fixing the sealing cover relative to the housing. The sealing cover only needs to be rotated at a small angle for assembly and disassembly, and the operation is relatively quick. For another example, the sealing cover is screwed to the filter element installation port.
[0010] Preferably, the shell includes a first sub-shell and a second sub-shell, the first sub-shell is a hollow shell having an upper opening, a lower opening and a side opening, the upper opening being a top-spraying water inlet, the side opening being a filter element installation port, and the water outlet being arranged in the lower opening; the second sub-shell is fixed in the first sub-shell and is spliced with the first sub-shell to form a filter chamber, the second sub-shell includes a bottom plate portion, a vertical plate portion and a vertical pipe portion, the vertical plate portion and the vertical pipe portion are vertically arranged on the bottom plate portion, and the shell water outlet is arranged on the bottom plate portion; the shell water outlet and the vertical pipe portion are located on one side of the vertical plate portion, and the filter element is located on the other side of the vertical plate portion, so that water can fully contact the filter material in the filter element after entering the filter element and then flow out of the filter element; the upper end of the vertical pipe portion is connected with the top-spraying water inlet, and a water inlet sealing ring is provided on the upper end of the vertical pipe portion, and the water inlet sealing ring abuts against the side wall of the top-spraying water inlet; a water inlet hole is provided on the vertical plate portion, and the water inlet hole is connected with the vertical pipe portion to form a water supply channel.
[0011] In order to ensure that water flowing from the water supply channel to the filter chamber is filtered by the filter element before flowing into the water outlet of the shell, it is necessary to design a sealing structure between the water inlet end of the filter element and the chamber wall of the filter chamber. Furthermore, the vertical plate portion is provided with a circle of sealing ring installation grooves surrounding the water inlet hole, and a pressure cover sealing ring is clamped in the sealing ring installation groove. When the filter element is installed in the filter chamber, the water inlet end of the filter element abuts against the pressure cover sealing ring, so that the filter chamber forms a first zone between the water inlet end of the filter element and the vertical plate portion.
[0012] Preferably, the water outlet body includes a water inlet plate, a diverter plate and a water outlet plate arranged in sequence from top to bottom, the water inlet plate is provided with a first water inlet hole, a second water inlet hole and a third water inlet hole, the diverter plate is provided with a first diverter hole, a second diverter hole and a third diverter hole, the water outlet plate is an annular structure, the water outlet plate is provided with a first water outlet hole and a second water outlet hole, the water outlet plate is arranged around a water outlet plate, and the water outlet plate is provided with a third water outlet hole; when the shell water outlet is connected to the first water inlet hole, water flows through the first diverter hole, and flows out of the first water outlet hole as shower water; when the shell water outlet is connected to the second water inlet hole, water flows through the second diverter hole, and flows out of the second water outlet hole as spray water; when the shell water outlet is connected to the third water inlet hole, water flows through the third diverter hole, and flows out of the third water outlet hole as pressurized water. The user can switch the top spray between shower water, spray water and pressurized water by rotating the water outlet body to obtain three shower experiences.
[0013] Preferably, the water outlet body further includes a water outlet sealing ring and a fixing ring. The lower side of the diverter plate is provided with a water outlet plate mounting groove. The water outlet sealing ring, the water outlet plate and the fixing ring are arranged in sequence from top to bottom. The fixing ring is screwed with the water outlet plate mounting groove to fix the water outlet sealing ring and the water outlet plate in the water outlet plate mounting groove. After unscrewing the fixing ring, the water outlet plate can be removed for cleaning. Not preferably, the water outlet plate is fixed to the water outlet plate in an irremovable manner.
[0014] The top shower also includes a screw, through which the water outlet is mounted on the shell, the screw is located above the water outlet piece, and the water outlet tray has a shielding effect on the screw, making the appearance of the top shower more beautiful.
[0015] A stepped shaft is provided on the lower side of the shell, and a socket is correspondingly provided on the water outlet body, and the stepped shaft is inserted in the socket; a screw passes through a washer and is fixed on the stepped shaft; the stepped shaft includes an upper shaft body, a middle shaft body and a lower shaft body which are tapered from top to bottom, and the outer peripheral surface of the lower shaft body is a non-cylindrical surface (for example, a hexagonal prism surface or a pentagonal prism surface), and the lower shaft body is inserted in the washer, so that the washer cannot rotate relative to the stepped shaft; the outer peripheral surfaces of the washer, the upper shaft body and the middle shaft body are cylindrical surfaces, and the outer diameter of the washer is larger than the outer diameter of the middle shaft body, so that an annular positioning groove surrounding the middle shaft body is formed between the washer and the upper shaft body, and an annular convex edge matching the annular positioning groove is provided on the inner wall of the socket, and the annular convex edge is located in the annular positioning groove, so that the water outlet body cannot move up and down relative to the shell.
