Detailed implementation manners
[0031] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, where the same or similar reference numerals indicate the same or similar elements or elements with the same or similar functions from beginning to end. The embodiments described below by referring to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0032] The present invention relates to a water outlet device, including a water inlet main body 100, a water outlet mechanism 200, a central member 300, a piston member 400, and a switching mechanism 500. The water outlet device can be a water-using product such as a shower head or a ceiling spray.
[0033] Such as Figure 1 And Figure 2As shown in the figure, the water inlet main body 100 includes a first chamber 110 and a second chamber 120, and a water inlet section 130 is provided between the first chamber 110 and the second chamber 120. In the illustrated direction, the left end of the water inlet section 130 communicates with the first chamber 110, and the right end of the water inlet section 130 communicates with the second chamber 120. The water inlet section 130 is used for water inlet. A water inlet can be provided on the side wall of the water inlet section 130, and the water inlet can be connected to an external water supply system through a water inlet pipe. The water outlet mechanism 200 communicates with the first chamber 110. The water outlet mechanism 200 can be provided with a plurality of water outlet channels, and different water shapes are ejected from different water outlet channels to achieve different water outlet modes. The central member 300 is inserted through the water inlet section 130, and the central member 300 can slide in the water inlet section 130. The central member 300 has a first end 310 and a second end 320. The pressure-bearing area of the first end 310 is smaller than that of the second end 320. The first end 310 faces the first chamber 110, and the second end 320 faces the second chamber 120. When water flows into the water inlet section 130, the water flow will impact on the first end 310 and the second end 320. Due to the different pressure-bearing areas of the first end 310 and the second end 320, a pressure difference is formed between the first end 310 and the second end 320. Driven by the pressure difference, the central member 300 will move towards the end with higher pressure. As the central member 300 moves, the first end 310 can move to open or close the connection between the water inlet section 130 and the first chamber 110. The piston member 400 is installed in the second chamber 120, and the piston member 400 moves with the change of the water pressure in the second chamber 120. When the water pressure in the second chamber 120 rises, the piston member 400 moves to the first position, and the first position is the limit position when it moves to the first position. When the piston member 400 moves to the first position, the space formed between the second chamber 120 and the piston member 400 gradually becomes larger. When the water pressure in the second chamber 120 drops, the piston member 400 can move back to the second position, and the space formed between the second chamber 120 and the piston member 400 gradually shrinks. The switching mechanism 500 is connected between the water outlet mechanism 200 and the piston member 400. When the piston member 400 moves, it will drive the switching mechanism 500 to move, thereby changing the water outlet mode of the water outlet mechanism 200.
[0034] During actual use, as Figure 2 shown, initially the piston member 400 is located at the second position. Water flows into the water inlet section 130, and the water will impact on the first end 310 and the second end 320 of the central member 300. As Figure 5 shown, at this time, a force F1 is formed on the first end 310 by the water, and a force F2 is formed on the second end 320 by the water. F1 faces the first chamber 110 (to the left), F2 faces the second chamber 120 (to the right), F1 is less than F2, and the central member 300 moves towards the second chamber 120. As Figure 3As shown, the first end portion 310 seals the connection between the water inlet section 130 and the first chamber 110, and water cannot flow from the water inlet section 130 into the first chamber 110. Water flows into the second chamber 120 through the water inlet section 130. The water pushes the piston member 400 from the second position towards the first position until the piston member 400 moves to the first position and stops at the first position. The water in the water inlet section 130 can no longer flow into the second chamber 120. As Figure 4 shown, at this time, the water in the second chamber 120 exerts a force F3 on the second end portion 320 in the direction opposite to the direction of F2. The force F3 cancels out the force F2. Under the action of the force F1, the central member 300 moves to the left, the first end portion 310 leaves the connection between the water inlet section 130 and the first chamber 110, and the water in the water inlet section 130 flows into the first chamber 110 and is discharged through the first chamber 110 for use by the water outlet mechanism 200. When the water inlet section 130 stops admitting water, the pressure in the water inlet section 130 rapidly decreases. The water in the second chamber 120 flows through the water inlet section 130 into the first chamber 110 and is discharged under the reset action of the piston member 400, and the piston member 400 resets to the second position. When the water inlet section 130 admits water again, the central member 300 and the piston member 400 repeat the above actions. When the piston member 400 changes its position between the first position and the second position, it drives the switching mechanism 500 to perform a switching action, causing the water outlet mechanism 200 to change its water outlet mode once. During the water inlet process of the water inlet section 130, the central member 300 automatically switches its position due to the change in the force exerted by the water on the central member 300. The water first flows into the second chamber 120 to gradually store energy and build up pressure until the second chamber 120 is filled with water, the piston member 400 moves to the first position, and the central member 300 opens the first chamber 110, and the water flows into the first chamber 110. Regardless of the water pressure of the external water supply system, even if the water pressure of the water supply system is as low as 0.05 Mpa or as high as 0.5 MPa, through the energy storage and pressure build-up effect of the second chamber 120, the central member 300 and the piston member 400 can move smoothly, thereby ensuring that the switching mechanism 500 can smoothly switch the water outlet mode of the water outlet mechanism 200 and can be applied to water pressure conditions within a large pressure range.
[0035] In some embodiments of the present invention, 5 and Figure 6, the first end portion 310 and the second end portion 320 are connected by a connecting shaft 330. In the illustrated direction, the first end portion 310 and the second end portion 320 are distributed left and right, and the axial direction of the connecting shaft 330 is left and right. The surface of the first end portion 310 facing the second end portion 320 is the first pressure-bearing surface 311, that is, the right side surface of the first end portion 310 is the first pressure-bearing surface 311. The surface of the second end portion 320 facing the first end portion 310 is the second pressure-bearing surface 321, and the surface of the second end portion 320 away from the first end portion 310 is the third pressure-bearing surface 322. That is, the left side surface of the second end portion 320 is the second pressure-bearing surface 321, and the right side surface is the third pressure-bearing surface 322. Among them, the area S1 of the first pressure-bearing surface 311 is smaller than the area S2 of the second pressure-bearing surface 321, and the area S1 of the first pressure-bearing surface 311 is smaller than the area S3 of the third pressure-bearing surface 322. When the water inlet section 130 intakes water, the water inlet pressure is P, the acting force F1 = P * S1, the acting force F2 = P * S2, and the acting force F3 = P * S3, so that F1 is less than F2 is achieved. Preferably, the area S3 of the third pressure-bearing surface 322 is greater than or equal to the area S2 of the second pressure-bearing surface 321, ensuring that the central member 300 can quickly move to the left to open the first chamber 110 after the second chamber 120 is filled with water.
[0036] Among them, the first end portion 310 can extend leftward into the first chamber 110. The first pressure-bearing surface 311 faces the water inlet section 130. The connection between the water inlet section 130 and the first chamber 110 can be sealed by the first pressure-bearing surface 311. It can also be that a sealing ring is installed on the circumferential side wall of the first end portion 310, and the connection between the water inlet section 130 and the first chamber 110 is blocked by the cooperation of the sealing ring and the first end portion 310. The first pressure-bearing surface 311 is conical, and the outer diameter of the first pressure-bearing surface 311 gradually increases from the first end portion 310 to the second end portion 320. The component of the acting force of the water pressure on the conical surface of the first pressure-bearing surface 311 along the axial direction of the connecting shaft 330 is the above-mentioned acting force F1. The conical shape of the first pressure-bearing surface 311 can increase the structural strength of the connection between the first end portion 310 and the connecting shaft 330, avoiding deformation of the connection between the first end portion 310 and the connecting shaft 330 due to water pressure; at the same time, it can ensure that the area of the first pressure-bearing surface 311 is not too small, ensuring that the formed acting force F1 is not too small to affect the smooth sliding of the central member 300 in the direction of the first chamber 110.
[0037] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, a water passing member 600 is installed at the connection between the first chamber 110 and the water inlet section 130. The first chamber 110 and the water inlet section 130 are connected through the water passing member 600. The inside of the water passing member 600 is hollow to form a water passing cavity 610. The two ends of the water passing cavity 610 are respectively opened to form a first water passing port 620 and a second water passing port 630. The water passing cavity 610 is connected to the first chamber 110 through the first water passing port 620, and the water passing cavity 610 is connected to the water inlet section 130 through the second water passing port 630. The opening area of the first water passing port 620 is smaller than the opening area of the second water passing port 630, ensuring that water can flow smoothly into the water passing cavity 610. The first water passing port 620 is mainly used to be adapted to the first end portion 310 so as to be blocked or opened by the first end portion 310. The central member 300 is slidably disposed through the water passing cavity 610. It is possible that both the first end portion 310 and the second end portion 320 are located outside the water passing cavity 610. The water in the water inlet section 130 flows into the first chamber 110 from the second water passing port 630, the water passing cavity 610, and the first water passing port 620. Preferably, the cross-sectional area of the second water passing port 630 is less than or equal to the bearing surface connection of the second bearing surface 321. The opening position of the water inlet of the water inlet section 130 is located at the spatial position between the second water passing port 630 and the second end portion 320. The water passing member 600 with a corresponding opening size can be selected according to the shape and cross-sectional area size of the first end portion 310, so as to select the corresponding water passing member 600 according to the model of the water outlet device to be paired with the central member 300.
[0038] Further, as Figure 6 shown, a first guiding groove 640 is provided on the inside of the water passing cavity 610. The extending direction of the first guiding groove 640 is the same as the moving direction of the central member 300. One or more first guiding grooves 640 can be provided. A peripheral edge 340 is provided on the central member 300. The peripheral edge 340 can extend radially from the connecting shaft 330. The peripheral edge 340 is slidably connected to the first guiding groove 640. The movement of the central member 300 is guided through the sliding fit between the first guiding groove 640 and the peripheral edge 340, preventing the central member 300 from being deflected and unable to block the first water passing port 620.
[0039] Among them, as Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the piston member 400 includes a piston body 410 and an elastic member 420. The piston body 410 is slidably mounted in the second chamber 120. A sealing ring can be sleeved on the piston body 410 to increase the watertightness with the second chamber 120. The elastic member 420 can be a spring, and the elastic member 420 applies an elastic force to the piston body 410 to move it toward the second position. When the second chamber 120 stores energy, the water entering the second chamber 120 acts on the lower end surface of the piston body 410, and the force of the water on the piston body 410 is greater than the elastic force applied by the elastic member 420 to the piston body 410, causing the piston body 410 to move toward the first position. When the piston body 410 moves toward the first position, the elastic member 420 undergoes compressive deformation. When the water supply in the water inlet section 130 stops, the piston body 410 moves to the second position under the elastic reset action of the elastic member 420, and discharges the water in the second chamber 120 toward the water inlet section 130.
[0040] In one embodiment, as Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the switching mechanism 500 includes a lever group 510, a push rod 520, and a ratchet wheel 530. The lever group 510 is connected between the piston member 400 and the push rod 520. When the piston member 400 moves to the first position, the push rod 520 is away from the ratchet wheel 530. When the piston member 400 moves to the second position, the push rod 520 abuts against the ratchet wheel 530, and the ratchet wheel 530 is pushed to rotate a certain angle in the first direction through the push rod 520. The water outlet mechanism 200 includes a water distribution plate 210, and the ratchet wheel 530 is connected to the water distribution plate 210. When the ratchet wheel 530 rotates a certain angle, the water distribution plate 210 synchronously rotates a certain angle. Through the position change of the water distribution plate 210, the first chamber 110 is switched to communicate with a water outlet flow channel different from the water outlet mechanism 200, thereby changing the water outlet mode. The lever group 510 can reduce the thrust required when the piston member 400 pushes the push rod 520 through the lever principle.
[0041] Further, the switching mechanism 500 further includes a stop member 540. The stop member 540 can be a spring piece or a rod. The stop member 540 can abut against the ratchet wheel 530. The rotation of the ratchet wheel 530 in the second direction is restricted by the stop member 540, and the first direction is opposite to the second direction. In the illustrated direction, when the push rod 520 moves upward, it abuts against the ratchet wheel 530 and pushes the ratchet wheel 530 to rotate counterclockwise. The stop member 540 abuts against the ratchet wheel 530 to prevent the ratchet wheel 530 from rotating clockwise.
[0042] Specifically, as Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown in the figure, the lever group 510 includes a first connecting rod 511 and a second connecting rod 512. The two ends of the first connecting rod 511 can be hinged to one end of the piston member 400 and one end of the second connecting rod 512 through a rotating shaft respectively. The other end of the second connecting rod 512 can be hinged to one end of the push rod 520 through a rotating shaft. A fulcrum 513 hinged to the water inlet main body 100 is provided on the second connecting rod 512. Compared with the hinged joints of the fulcrum 513 with the first connecting rod 511 and the second connecting rod 512, the fulcrum 513 is closer to the hinged joint of the second connecting rod 512 and the push rod 520, so as to achieve the purpose of saving effort to push the push rod 520 through the second connecting rod 512.
[0043] In one embodiment, as Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the push rod 520 includes a first rod segment 521 and a second rod segment 522 that are hinged to each other. One end of the first rod segment 521 is hinged to the lever group 510 through a rotating shaft. One end of the second rod segment 522 faces the ratchet wheel 530, and a V-shaped notch can be provided at the end of the second rod segment 522 to match the teeth on the ratchet wheel 530. A second guide groove 140 is provided on the water inlet main body 100, and the extending direction of the second guide groove 140 is the same as the moving direction of the push rod 520. The second rod segment 522 is slidably disposed in the second guide groove 140. A marble 523 is provided on the second rod segment 522, and the marble 523 elastically expands and contracts relative to the second rod segment 522 perpendicular to the translation direction of the second rod segment 522, and one end of the marble 523 abuts against the groove wall of the second guide groove 140. The first rod segment 521, the second rod segment 522, the second connecting rod 512 and the second guide groove 140 cooperate to form a crank and connecting rod mechanism. Under the action of the marble 523, the second rod segment 522 can abut against the side wall of the second guide groove 140, so that the second connecting rod 512 moves in a straight line without shaking during movement, ensuring the stability when the second rod segment 522 pushes the ratchet wheel 530.
