[0002] With the improvement of people's consumption and living standards, people's requirements for the shower experience are also getting higher and higher. Moreover, with the increase of people's work pressure, it is often necessary to fully relax the muscles of the body during showering. However, the current conventional water massage effect on the market is still relatively limited and cannot achieve a good knocking and massaging effect. Some existing shower heads will add an electric massage head on them and use battery charging as the power source. This massage head only has one kind of rotational motion and is controlled by a motor.

Detailed implementation manners
[0041] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings, where the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0042] The present invention relates to a water outlet device, including a water flow channel 100, a drive mechanism 200, a linkage mechanism, and a massage member 600. Among them, the water outlet device can be applied to water-using products such as shower heads, nozzles, and back sprays.
[0043] Such as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 6 and Figure 8As shown in the figure, the water flow channel 100 is used to connect with an external water supply system and spray water outwards. The water outlet device may include a water inlet mechanism and a water outlet mechanism, and a water flow channel 100 is formed between the water inlet mechanism and the water outlet mechanism. The water outlet mechanism may also be provided with one or more water outlet channels, and different water outlet channels form different water spraying patterns. The driving mechanism 200 includes an impeller 210, and the impeller 210 is located on the water flow path of the water flow channel 100. The impeller 210 can be located at any position where the water flow in the water flow channel 100 passes through. For example, the impeller 210 is connected to the water flow channel 100 where the water inlet mechanism is located, or the impeller 210 is connected to the water flow channel 100 at the transition between the water inlet mechanism and the water outlet mechanism. When water flows through the water flow channel 100, the water flow impacts on the impeller 210, and the impeller 210 is driven to rotate by the water flow. The driving mechanism 200 may also be provided with a speed change gear set 220, and the speed change gear set 220 is connected to the impeller 210. The speed change gear set 220 is driven by the impeller 210 for speed change transmission, which can be acceleration or deceleration. The linkage mechanism includes a clutch assembly 300, a telescopic assembly 400 and a rotating assembly 500. The clutch assembly 300 is connected to the driving mechanism 200, and the driving mechanism 200 can drive the clutch assembly 300 to rotate. The clutch assembly 300 can move in the water outlet device, and the clutch assembly 300 will be linked with at least one of the telescopic assembly 400 and the rotating assembly 500 at different positions. That is, the clutch assembly 300 can be linked only with the telescopic assembly 400, or only with the rotating assembly 500, or be linked synchronously with the telescopic assembly 400 and the rotating assembly 500. The driving mechanism 200 drives the clutch assembly 300 to rotate. When the telescopic assembly 400 is linked with the clutch assembly 300, the telescopic assembly 400 converts the rotational movement of the driving mechanism 200 into a reciprocating translational movement through the clutch assembly 300. The driving mechanism 200 drives the clutch assembly 300 to rotate. When the rotating assembly 500 is linked with the clutch assembly 300, the rotating assembly 500 rotates together with the driving mechanism 200 through the clutch assembly 300. Among them, the telescopic assembly 400 can convert the rotational movement into a linear movement through structures such as a crank-slider structure, a rocker structure, a gear-rack transmission structure, etc. The rotating assembly 500 can achieve synchronous rotation with the driving mechanism 200 through a gear set transmission structure. Both the telescopic assembly 400 and the rotating assembly 500 are connected to the massage member 600. The structure of the massage member 600 is not limited, and the massage member 600 can be set as a brush head structure, a hammer head structure, etc. It can be understood that the telescopic assembly 400 and the rotating assembly 500 can always be connected to the massage member 600. When one of the telescopic assembly 400 and the rotating assembly 500 is linked with the driving mechanism 200 through the clutch assembly 300, the linked one drives the massage member 600 to perform corresponding actions.Alternatively, when one of the telescopic component 400 and the rotating component 500 is linked to the drive mechanism 200 through the clutch component 300, the linked one is connected to the massage component 600, and the other is disengaged from the massage component 600. The linked one drives the massage component 600 to perform corresponding actions. That is, as Figure 9 shown, when the clutch component 300 moves to be linked with the telescopic component 400, the telescopic component 400 converts the rotation of the drive mechanism 200 into a reciprocating translational motion, drives the massage component 600 to perform reciprocating translation, the massage component 600 enters the impact massage mode in the water outlet device, and the massage component 600 can perform reciprocating pressing massage on the user. As Figure 11 shown, when the clutch component 300 moves to be linked with the rotating component 500, the rotating component 500 will perform synchronous rotation, drive the massage component 600 to rotate, the massage component 600 enters the rotary massage mode in the water outlet device, and the massage component 600 can perform rotary massage on the user. As Figure 10 shown, when the clutch component 300 moves to be linked with the telescopic component 400 and the rotating component 500 simultaneously, the massage component 600 rotates and reciprocates translationally at the same time, and the massage component 600 enters the compound massage mode. When in use, the user sprays the body through the water outlet device while can select different massage modes to massage the body through the massage head. The linkage of the drive mechanism 200, the linkage mechanism and the massage component 600 is realized by using the water flow power, without using electric energy, which is safe, stable, energy-saving and environment-friendly. The selection of multiple massage modes meets the different usage requirements of users and increases the functionality of the water outlet device.
[0044] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 4 、 Figure 5 and Figure 8As shown, the clutch assembly 300 includes a linkage wheel 310, a first connecting member 320, a second connecting member 330, and a connecting rod 340. The linkage wheel 310 is connected to the drive mechanism 200. It can be understood that the connection manner between the linkage wheel 310 and the drive mechanism 200 can be, but is not limited to, that the linkage wheel 310 is coaxially connected to the impeller 210 through a shaft member, or the linkage wheel 310 and the impeller 210 are in tooth engagement transmission, or there is tooth engagement transmission between the linkage wheel 310 and the impeller 210 through a speed change gear set 220, etc. The drive mechanism 200 drives the linkage wheel 310 to rotate synchronously. The first connecting member 320 is connected to the linkage wheel 310 and keeps rotating synchronously with the linkage wheel 310. The connection manner between the first connecting member 320 and the linkage wheel 310 can be, but is not limited to, that the first connecting member 320 is coaxially connected to the linkage wheel 310, and the first connecting member 320 and the linkage wheel 310 can move relative to each other axially but cannot rotate relative to the axial direction; or the first connecting member 320 and the linkage wheel 310 are in tooth engagement transmission and other forms. The second connecting member 330 is connected to the rotating assembly 500. It can be understood that the connection manner between the second connecting member 330 and the rotating assembly 500 can be, but is not limited to, that the second connecting member 330 is coaxially connected to the rotating assembly 500 through a shaft member, or is in tooth engagement transmission. The connecting rod 340 is connected to the second connecting member 330. The connecting rod 340 can move axially in the water outlet device and drive the second connecting member 330 to move when moving. When the second connecting member 330 moves, the second connecting member 330 can move away from the rotating assembly 500 or move to be connected to the rotating assembly 500 as the connecting rod 340 moves; or the second connecting member 330 always remains connected to the rotating assembly 500 when the connecting rod 340 moves. The second connecting member 330 approaches or moves away from the first connecting member 320 as the connecting rod 340 moves. In the illustrated direction, the second connecting member 330 is located below the first connecting member 320. When the second connecting member 330 moves in the direction away from the first connecting member 320 (downward), the first connecting member 320 and the second connecting member 330 are separated from each other without transmission. When the second connecting member 330 moves in the direction close to the first connecting member 320 (upward), the second connecting member 330 can be connected to the first connecting member 320 when moving, and the first connecting member 320 and the second connecting member 330 are in linkage. When the second connecting member 330 continues to move upward, the second connecting member 330 will push the first connecting member 320 upward until the first connecting member 320 leaves the telescopic assembly 400. After the first connecting member 320 and the second connecting member 330 are connected, the second connecting member 330 remains connected to the rotating assembly 500. When the second connecting member 330 moves downward, the first connecting member 320 will reset downward to be reconnected to the telescopic assembly 400. In actual use, the drive mechanism 200 rotates under the action of water flow impact and drives the linkage wheel 310 to rotate. When as Figure 9As shown, the first connecting member 320 and the second connecting member 330 are in a separated position. Define the position of the second connecting member 330 at this time as the first position, and define the position where the first connecting member 320 is connected to the telescopic assembly 400 as the fourth position. At this time, the linkage wheel 310 drives the first connecting member 320 to rotate. The telescopic assembly 400 converts the rotational movement of the first connecting member 320 into a reciprocating translational movement, thereby driving the massage member 600 to perform a reciprocating translational movement. The second connecting member 330 remains in the first position and does not move. As Figure 10 shown, when the second connecting member 330 moves upward from the first position to be connected to the first connecting member 320 located at the fourth position, define the current position of the second connecting member 330 as the second position. The second connecting member 330 located at the second position is connected to the first connecting member 320 located at the fourth position. At this time, the linkage wheel 310 drives the second connecting member 330 to rotate synchronously through the first connecting member 320. The telescopic assembly 400 drives the massage member 600 to move telescopically, and the second connecting member 330 drives the rotating assembly 500 to rotate, thereby driving the massage member 600 to rotate. That is, the massage member 600 moves telescopically and rotates simultaneously. As Figure 11 shown, when the connecting rod 340 drives the second connecting member 330 to continue moving upward from the second position, the second connecting member 330 moves to the third position, and the second connecting member 330 pushes the first connecting member 320 upward from the fourth position to the fifth position. At this time, the second connecting member 330 remains connected to the rotating assembly 500, and the first connecting member 320 is disconnected from the telescopic assembly 400. At this time, the linkage wheel 310 drives the second connecting member 330 to rotate through the first connecting member 320, and the second connecting member 330 drives the massage head to rotate through the rotating assembly 500. At this time, since the first connecting member 320 is disconnected from the telescopic assembly 400, the massage head only rotates and does not move telescopically. When the second connecting member 330 returns from the third position to the second position or the first position, the first connecting member 320 will return from the fifth position to the fourth position.
[0045] Based on the above embodiments, as Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the connecting rod 340 is slidably and coaxially inserted through the linkage wheel 310 and the first connecting member 320. The second connecting member 330 is fixed to the connecting rod 340. In the illustrated direction, the connecting rod 340 passes through the linkage wheel 310 and the first connecting member 320 from top to bottom in sequence. The second connecting member 330 is fixed to the lower end of the connecting rod 340. One of the first connecting member 320 and the linkage wheel 310 is provided with a first tooth convex 321, and the other is provided with a first groove portion 311. In this embodiment, the middle of the linkage wheel 310 is hollow, and at least one first groove portion 311 is provided on the inner wall of the hollow portion of the linkage wheel 310 and is formed in a straight groove shape along the axial direction. The first connecting member 320 is a hollow columnar structure, and at least one first tooth convex 321 that protrudes radially and extends axially is provided on the outer wall of the first connecting member 320. The first connecting member 320 is inserted into the linkage wheel 310 from bottom to top, and the first tooth convex 321 is correspondingly slidably connected in the first groove portion 311, so that the first connecting member 320 can relatively slide axially with respect to the linkage wheel 310, and the linkage wheel 310 and the first connecting member 320 can rotate synchronously. The connecting rod 340 coaxially passes through the linkage wheel 310 and the first connecting member 320. The second connecting member 330 can be sleeved on the lower end of the connecting rod 340, and then relatively fixed by means of screws, snap rings, etc. One of the first connecting member 320 and the second connecting member 330 is provided with a second tooth convex 331, and the other is provided with a second groove portion 322. In this embodiment, the inside of the first connecting member 320 is hollow, at least one second groove portion 322 is provided on the inner wall of the first connecting member 320 and is formed in a straight groove shape along the axial direction, and at least one second tooth convex 331 that protrudes radially and extends axially is provided on the upper part of the second connecting member 330. When the second connecting member 330 moves from the first position to the second position, the second connecting member 330 extends into the first connecting member 320 from bottom to top, and the second tooth convex 331 is slidably connected to the second groove portion 322 in a one-to-one pairing, so that the first connecting member 320 and the second connecting member 330 can rotate synchronously. When the second connecting member 330 moves upward from the second position to the third position, the first connecting member 320 can be pushed upward by the second tooth convex 331 abutting against the upper end of the second groove portion 322. When the second connecting member 330 moves downward and resets to the first position, the second tooth convex 331 slides out of the second groove portion 322. When the first connecting member 320 resets from the fifth position to the fourth position, it can be that a clamping convex is provided on the connecting rod 340. When the connecting rod 340 drives the second connecting member 330 to reset from the third position to the second position, the first connecting member 320 is driven by the clamping convex to reset to the fourth position. It can also be that an elastic member 700 is provided between the first connecting member 320 and the linkage wheel 310. The elastic member 700 can be a spring or the like, and the elastic member 700 can be sleeved on the connecting rod 340. The upper end of the elastic member 700 abuts against the linkage wheel 310, and the other end abuts against the first connecting member 320.The elastic member 700 exerts an elastic force on the first connecting member 320 to move the first connecting member 320 towards the position connected to the telescopic assembly 400, that is, the elastic force drives the first connecting member 320 to move towards the fourth position.
[0046] In one embodiment, as Figure 9 , Figure 10 and Figure 14 shown, the water outlet device further includes a stop seat 810. The stop seat 810 is provided with a third tooth protrusion 811, and the second connecting member 330 is provided with a fourth tooth protrusion 332. When the second connecting member 330 moves to the position separated from the first connecting member 320, that is, when the second connecting member 330 moves to the first position, the third tooth protrusion 811 and the fourth tooth protrusion 332 are engaged to limit the rotation of the second connecting member 330. When the second connecting member 330 moves to the position connected to the first connecting member 320, that is, when the second connecting member 330 moves to the second position or the third position, the third tooth protrusion 811 and the fourth tooth protrusion 332 are separated to release the rotation restriction on the second connecting member 330.
[0047] In one embodiment, as Figure 9 shown, the rotating assembly 500 includes a first gear 510. The massage member 600 is fixedly connected to the first gear 510, and the two can be relatively fixed by screws, snap rings, etc. The first gear 510 meshes with the clutch assembly 300. Specifically, teeth can be provided on the circumferential side wall of the second connecting member 330, and the second connecting member 330 meshes with the first gear 510 for transmission.
[0048] In one embodiment, as Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 shown, the water outlet device further includes a base 820. The base 820 is provided with a guiding cavity 821. In the illustrated direction, the guiding cavity 821 is vertically arranged. As Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 9As shown, the telescopic assembly 400 includes a balance wheel 410, a balance rod 420, and a piston member 430. The piston member 430 is slidably mounted in the guide cavity 821. The piston member 430 can move up and down in the guide cavity 821. The lower part of the piston member 430 and the massage member 600 can be fixedly connected by components such as screws and snap rings. The clutch assembly 300 is coaxially disposed through the balance wheel 410. An annular groove 411 is formed on the outer wall of the balance wheel 410, and the central axis of the annular groove 411 is inclined to the central axis of the balance wheel 410. The central axis of the balance wheel 410 is in the same direction as the central axis of the connecting rod 340. The balance rod 420 includes a straight rod portion 421 and a loop portion 422, and the straight rod portion 421 extends radially from the outer wall of the loop portion 422. The balance rod 420 is sleeved on the annular groove 411, such that the axis of the loop portion 422 of the balance rod 420 is inclined to the axis of the balance wheel 410. A first pin shaft 440 is disposed through the piston member 430. The axial direction of the first pin shaft 440 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the piston member 430. The balance rod 420 is disposed through the first pin shaft 440 perpendicular to the axial direction of the first pin shaft 440. When the clutch assembly 300 is connected to the balance wheel 410 at the fourth position through the first connecting member 320, the first connecting member 320 drives the balance wheel 410 to rotate. When the balance wheel 410 rotates, the straight rod portion 421 of the balance rod 420 swings up and down in space through the annular groove 411 following the rotation of the balance wheel 410, and the balance rod 420 drives the piston member 430 to move up and down through the first pin shaft 440, thereby driving the massage head to move up and down. Wherein, a fifth tooth protrusion 323 is provided on the first connecting member 320 of the clutch assembly 300, and a sixth tooth protrusion 412 is provided inside the balance wheel 410. The fifth tooth protrusion 323 and the sixth tooth protrusion 412 can be engaged or separated as the clutch assembly 300 moves. When the first connecting member 320 is at the fourth position, the fifth tooth protrusion 323 and the sixth tooth protrusion 412 are engaged with each other, such that the first connecting member 320 and the balance wheel 410 can rotate synchronously. When the first connecting member 320 is at the fifth position, the fifth tooth protrusion 323 and the sixth tooth protrusion 412 are separated from each other, the first connecting member 320 disengages from the balance wheel 410, and the balance wheel 410 does not move with the clutch assembly 300.
[0049] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 9 , Figure 12 and Figure 13As shown, the water outlet device further includes a switching base 900. The switching base 900 can rotate on the water outlet device. A gear slot 910 is formed on the side wall of the switching base 900. The gear slot 910 spirally extends around the rotation axis of the switching base 900. The switching base 900 can rotate around its own rotation axis. At least two flat slots 911 are provided on the gear slot 910, and the number of the flat slots 911 is set according to the number of massage modes of the massage member 600. In this embodiment, the massage member 600 has three massage modes, and three flat slots 911 are correspondingly provided on the gear slot 910, and the three flat slots 911 are sequentially distributed on the gear slot 910. The flat slot 911 extends in a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis of the switching base 900. The moving direction of the clutch assembly 300 is the same as the direction of the rotation axis of the switching base 900. In the illustrated direction, the moving directions of both the clutch assembly 300 and the rotation axis of the switching base 900 are vertically upward and downward. The clutch assembly 300 is slidably connected to the gear slot 910 through a second pin shaft 930. The three flat slots 911 are distributed at high, medium, and low positions vertically. Initially, the second pin shaft 930 is located on the flat slot 911 at the lowest position. At this time, the second connecting member 330 is located at the first position, and the first connecting member 320 is located at the fourth position. Rotate the switching base 900, and the second pin shaft 930 leaves the current flat slot 911 and slides upward along the gear slot 910 to the flat slot 911 at the middle position. At this time, the second connecting member 330 moves to the second position, and the first connecting member 320 remains at the fourth position. Continue to rotate the switching base 900 in the same direction, and the second pin shaft 930 leaves the current flat slot 911 and slides upward along the gear slot 910 to the flat slot 911 at the highest position. At this time, the second connecting member 330 moves to the third position, and the first connecting member 320 moves to the fifth position. Rotate the switching base 900 in the reverse direction, and the second pin shaft 930 sequentially switches from the high, medium, and low flat slots 911. In this way, the clutch assembly 300 is driven to move up and down through the second pin shaft 930.
[0050] Based on the above embodiment, as Figure 9 and Figure 15 shown, the water outlet device further includes a support base 940. The switching base 900 is rotatably mounted on the support base 940. A ball member 920 is mounted on the switching base 900. The ball member 920 elastically expands and contracts along the radial direction of the switching base 900. At least two clamping positions 941 are provided on the support base 940, and the number of the clamping positions 941 is the same as the number of the flat slots 911. The ball member 920 slides into or out of the clamping positions 941 in sequence as the switching base 900 rotates. When the second pin shaft 930 slides into a certain flat slot 911, the ball member 920 slides into the corresponding clamping position 941, so as to position the clutch assembly 300 and the switching base 900 at the current position.
