Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of water outlet products, and particularly to a switching component and a water outlet device. Background Art

[0002] In the existing water outlet device, the pressing button is connected to the switching member by buckling to drive the movement of the switching member. To achieve the interlocking of the rotating button and the pressing button, an abutting portion is usually provided on the rotating button. The abutting portion is located below the pressing button. When the rotating button is pressed to rotate, the abutting portion will abut against the lower surface of the pressing button, thereby driving the pressing button to rise. However, in the prior art, the lower surface of the pressing button is flat. During the rotation of the abutting portion, ① it gradually moves away from the buckling position of the pressing button and the switching member, and the force-bearing position of the pressing button is not fixed, making the pressing button prone to shaking, resulting in the separation of the pressing button and the switching member from the buckling; ② and the abutting portion always applies an upward force to the pressing button. When the force is large, it causes the separation of the pressing button and the switching member from the buckling. Summary of the Invention

[0023] As can be seen from the above description of the present invention and its preferred embodiments, compared with the prior art, the technical solutions and their preferred embodiments of the present invention have the following beneficial effects due to the following technical means:

[0024] 1. In Solution One and its preferred embodiments, a switching assembly includes a body, a first switching member, a pressing button and a rotation button.

[0025] The first switching member is adapted to be slidably connected to the body in a first direction and a second direction to change the state of the body; wherein, the first direction and the second direction are opposite to each other;

[0026] The pressing button is adapted to be latched with the first switching member in the first direction, and the pressing button and the first switching member are in limit fit in the first direction and the second direction, so that the movement of the pressing button in the first direction and the second direction can drive the first switching member to move in the corresponding direction.

[0027] The rotating button is rotationally connected to the body about an axis perpendicular to the first direction. It is provided with an abutting portion, and the pressing button is provided with a force-receiving portion. One of the abutting portion and the force-receiving portion is provided with a hook groove, and the other of the two is provided with a hook body adapted to enter the hook groove through inclined surface cooperation and cooperate with the hook groove. When the hook body gradually approaches the hook groove (such as when pressing the rotating button), the inclined surface cooperation facilitates the entry of the hook body into the hook groove to achieve better cooperation between the hook groove and the hook body and prevent the two from falling off. When the hook body gradually moves away from the hook groove (such as when pressing the pressing button), the inclined surface cooperation facilitates the withdrawal of the hook body from the hook groove so as not to affect the rotation of the rotating button. The abutting portion is adapted to abut against the force-receiving portion along a direction inclined relative to the second direction when the rotating button rotates, so that the pressing button drives the first switching member to move along the second direction. Through the force inclined relative to the second direction, it can not only form a force for the pressing button to move along the second direction, but also form a lateral clamping force, so that the pressing button abuts against the first switching member laterally to form a frictional force, and the frictional force increases with the increase of the applied force, which can reduce the risk of falling off. At the same time, since the force-receiving area of the pressing button is always the area where the hook groove and the hook body cooperate, the force-receiving position is stable, thereby reducing the risk of falling off.

[0030] 4. In the fourth solution and its preferred embodiments, the pressing button is also adapted to be slidably connected to the body along the first direction and the second direction, so that the pressing button can only move relative to the body along the first direction and the second direction to achieve movement guidance, thereby preventing rotation when the pressing button and the first switching member are rotatably engaged and are abutted by the abutting portion.

[0031] 5. In the fifth solution and its preferred embodiments, one of the pressing button and the body is provided with a guide post, and the other of the two is provided with a guide groove or a guide hole that slidably connects with the guide post along the first direction and the second direction.

The first arc surface protrudes towards the hook body, and the second arc surface and the third arc surface are recessed away from the hook body. The hook body is provided with a fourth arc surface, a fifth arc surface, and a sixth arc surface that are parallel to the first arc surface, the second arc surface, and the third arc surface respectively, so as to facilitate the introduction of the hook body into the hook groove, increase the contact area between the hook body and the hook groove, and at the same time make the resultant force between the hook body and the groove always form an angle with the force that relatively presses the button up and down, so that it is in a tightly held state during the movement process, enhancing the biting and anti - detachment effects.

[0034] 8. In Solution Eight and its preferred embodiments, a water outlet device includes the above - mentioned switching component. The body is provided with a water inlet, a first water outlet, and a first water diversion port that connects the water inlet and the first water outlet.

[0035] 9. In Solution Nine and its preferred embodiments, the body is further provided with a second water outlet and a second water diversion port that connects the second water outlet and the water inlet. The first switching member is adapted to block the second water diversion port when moving in the first direction and open the second water diversion port when moving in the second direction, so as to increase the water outlet function and make it more convenient to use.

The limiting portion 32 is suitable for being located in the first hole 531 and being limitedly matched with the hole wall of the first hole 531 along the first direction 8 and the second direction 9. The shaft rod 31 is suitable for extending from the second hole 532 to be partially located in the main body 1 to realize the switching effect. This method can make the switching smooth and prevent jamming when the second switching member 3 and the main body 1 slide and cooperate along the first direction 8 and the second direction 9, and the rotating button 5 rotates relative to the main body 1.

[0079] When installing, refer to Figure 7 First, install the first switching member 2, the second switching member 3, the first reset member 6, and the second reset member 7 on the body 1, and then install the rotating button 5, so that the shaft 31 and the limit portion 32 of the second switching member 3 enter through the lateral openings of the first hole 531 and the second hole 532, and then make the rotating groove 51 of the rotating button 5 buckle on the rotating column 15 of the body 1, and then install the pressing button 4. Align the guide hole 43 of the push button 4 with the guide column 14 of the body 1. When the push button 4 moves toward the first switching member 2 along the first direction 8, the groove wall of the slot 41 abuts against the buckle 21. Through the cooperation of the inclined surfaces, the groove wall of the slot 41 is stretched open and the buckle 21 enters the slot 41 until the buckle 21 abuts against the groove bottom of the slot 41, so that the push button 4 and the first switching member 2 are limitedly matched along the first direction 8. At the same time, the groove wall of the slot 41 is restored at this time, and the groove wall of the slot 41 is located on the buckle 21 along the second direction 9. As a whole, the push button 4 and the first switching member 2 are limitedly matched along the second direction 9. After the installation is completed, the guide hole 43 is sleeved on the guide column 14 to complete the installation.

[0080] Initially, refer to Figure 7 ① In the absence of hydraulic force, the first switching member 2 is located at a position where the second water diversion port 132 is opened and the first water diversion port 131 is blocked under the action of the first resetting member 6, and the second switching member 3 is located at a position where the third water diversion port 133 is opened and the fourth water diversion port 134 is opened under the action of the second resetting member 7. When water is passed, the water inlet 11, the second water diversion port 132, the third water diversion port 133 and the second water outlet 122 are suitable for being connected in sequence.

[0081] Reference Figure 9 , ② Press the pressing button 4. Pressing the pressing button 4 drives the first switching member 2 to move along the first direction 8 until the first switching member 2 is located at a position where the first water diversion port 131 is opened and the second water diversion port 132 is blocked. At this time, the water inlet 11, the first water diversion port 131, and the first water outlet 121 are adapted to be communicated in sequence;

[0082] Reference Figure 10 , ③ On the basis of ②, press one end of the rotating button 5 away from the abutting portion 52, so that the rotating button 5 drives the second switching member 3 to move along the second direction 9 until the second switching member 3 blocks the third water diversion port 133 and opens the fourth water diversion port 134. Reference Figures 12 - 17 , During the process of pressing one end of the rotating button 5 away from the abutting portion 52, the abutting portion 52 moves along the second direction 9. The hook body 521 on the abutting portion 52 gradually enters the hook groove 44 through inclined surface cooperation and applies a force inclined relative to the second direction 9 to the pressing button 4. The pressing button 4 drives the first switching member 2 to move along the second direction 9 until the first switching member 2 is located at a position where the second water diversion port 132 is opened and the first water diversion port 131 is blocked. At this time, the water inlet 11, the second water diversion port 132, the fourth water diversion port 134, and the third water outlet 123 are adapted to be communicated in sequence. Since the resultant force F generated by the abutting portion 52 on the pressing button 4 is inclined relative to the second direction 9, and the sliding fit relationship between the guide hole 43 of the pressing button 4 and the guide post 14 of the body 1, and the pressing button 4 can only move along the first direction 8 and the second direction 9, the component force of the resultant force F will form an included angle clamping force, so that the pressing button 4 abuts against the clamping groove 41 of the first switching member 2 and the guide post 14 of the body 1 along the side to form a frictional force, thereby preventing the pressing button 4 from disengaging from the engagement with the first switching member 2 due to excessive force or unstable force position during the upward interlocking switching, playing an anti-detachment role.

[0083] ④ On the basis of ③, if the pressing button 4 is pressed, when the pressing button 4 moves along the first direction 8, it will also apply a force along the first direction 8 to the abutting portion 52 on the rotating member, so that the second switching member 3 moves until the first switching member 2 is located at a position where the first water diversion port 131 is opened and the second water diversion port 132 is blocked, and the second switching member 3 is located at a position where the third water diversion port 133 is opened and the fourth water diversion port 134 is blocked. At this time, the water inlet 11, the first water diversion port 131, and the first water outlet 121 are adapted to be communicated in sequence. Of course, the movement of the second switching member 3 can also be realized by independently pressing the end of the rotating button 5 with the abutting portion 52.

[0084] In the above, during water passing, since the acting force of water on the first switching member 2 or the second switching member 3 is greater than the forces of the first resetting member 6 and the second resetting member 7, the corresponding switching member will not be reset under the condition of water passing.

[0085] Compared with the prior art, the present embodiment has the following beneficial effects:

[0086] In an exemplary embodiment, a switching component includes a body 1, a first switching member 2, a pressing button 4, and a rotating button 5.

[0087] The first switching member 2 is adapted to be slidably connected to the body 1 along a first direction 8 and a second direction 9 to change the state of the body 1; wherein, the first direction 8 and the second direction 9 are opposite in direction;

[0088] The pressing button 4 is adapted to be latched with the first switching member 2 along the first direction 8, and the pressing button 4 and the first switching member 2 are in a limiting fit along the first direction 8 and the second direction 9, so that the movement of the pressing button 4 along the first direction 8 and the second direction 9 can drive the first switching member 2 to move in the corresponding direction.

[0089] The rotating button 5 is rotatably connected to the body 1 about an axis perpendicular to the first direction 8. It is provided with an abutting portion 52, and the pressing button 4 is provided with a force-receiving portion. One of the abutting portion 52 and the force-receiving portion is provided with a hook groove 44, and the other is provided with a hook body 521 adapted to enter the hook groove 44 through a bevel surface fit and cooperate with the hook groove 44. When the hook body 521 gradually approaches the hook groove 44 (such as when pressing the rotating button 5), the bevel surface fit facilitates the hook body 521 to enter the hook groove 44 to achieve better cooperation between the hook groove 44 and the hook body 521 and prevent them from falling off. When the hook body 521 gradually moves away from the hook groove 44 (such as when pressing the pressing button 4), the bevel surface fit facilitates the hook body 521 to exit the hook groove 44 so as not to affect the rotation of the rotating button 5. The abutting portion 52 is adapted to abut against the force-receiving portion along a direction inclined relative to the second direction 9 when the rotating button 5 rotates, so that the pressing button 4 drives the first switching member 2 to move along the second direction 9. Through the force inclined relative to the second direction 9, it can not only form a force for the pressing button 4 to move along the second direction 9, but also form a lateral clamping force, so that the pressing button 4 abuts against the first switching member 2 laterally to form a frictional force, thereby reducing the risk of falling off. At the same time, since the force-receiving area of the pressing button 4 is always the area where the hook groove 44 and the hook body 521 cooperate, the force-receiving position is stable, thereby reducing the risk of falling off.

[0090] In an exemplary embodiment, one of the pressing button 4 and the first switching member 2 is provided with a buckle 21, and the other is provided with a card slot 41 that latches with the buckle 21. At least one of the buckle 21 and the card slot 41 has elasticity to achieve their latching.

[0091] In an exemplary embodiment, the buckle 21 is spherical or hemispherical, and the shape of the card slot 41 is adapted to the buckle 21. The spherical and hemispherical buckles 21 and card slots 41 are convenient for latching, with uniform force and long service life.

[0092] In an exemplary embodiment, the pressing button 4 is further adapted to be slidably connected to the body 1 along a first direction 8 and a second direction 9, so that the pressing button 4 can only move relative to the body 1 along the first direction 8 and the second direction 9, realizing movement guidance, thereby preventing the pressing button 4 from rotating when it is rotatably engaged with the first switching member 2 and is abutted by the abutting portion 52.

[0093] In an exemplary embodiment, one of the pressing button 4 and the body 1 is provided with a guide post 14, and the other is provided with a guide groove or a guide hole 43 that is slidably connected to the guide post 14 along the first direction 8 and the second direction 9. Thus, in the case of having guidance, under the action of the lateral clamping force, the guide post 14 also abuts against the guide groove or the guide hole 43 to form a frictional force, thereby preventing the pressing button 4 from falling off.

[0094] In an exemplary embodiment, it further includes a second switching member 3. The second switching member 3 is slidably connected to the body 1 along the first direction 8 and the second direction 9 to change the state of the body 1 and enrich the functions of the body 1; the rotating button 5 is in limit cooperation with the second switching member 3 along the first direction 8 and the second direction 9, so that the second switching member 3 can be driven to move along the first direction 8 and the second direction 9 when rotating.

[0095] In an exemplary embodiment, a water outlet device includes the above-mentioned switching assembly. The body 1 is provided with a water inlet 11, a first water outlet 121, and a first water distribution port 131 that communicates the water inlet 11 and the first water outlet 121. The first switching member 2 is adapted to block the first water distribution port 131 when moving along the second direction 9 and open the first water distribution port 131 when moving along the first direction 8, thereby realizing the movement of the first switching member 2 to realize the water outlet, water stop, or flow rate adjustment of the first water outlet 121, etc.

[0096] In an exemplary embodiment, the body 1 is further provided with a second water outlet 122 and a second water distribution port 132 that communicates the second water outlet 122 and the water inlet 11. The first switching member 2 is adapted to block the second water distribution port 132 when moving along the first direction 8 and open the second water distribution port 132 when moving along the second direction 9 to increase the water outlet function and make it more convenient to use.

[0097] In an exemplary embodiment, it further includes a first reset member 6. The first reset member 6 is adapted to apply a force to the first switching member 2 to make the first switching member 2 move along the second direction 9, so that in the case of water stop, it is reset to the state of blocking the first water distribution port 131 and opening the second water distribution port 132, realizing automatic switching to the common position when water stops.

[0098] In an exemplary embodiment, it also includes a second switching member 3, and the main body 1 is provided with a third water diversion port 133, a fourth water diversion port 134 and a third water outlet 123; the second switching member 3 is slidably connected to the main body 1 along the first direction 8 and the second direction 9, and is suitable for blocking the fourth water diversion port 134 and opening the third water diversion port 133 when moving along the first direction 8, and blocking the third water diversion port 133 and opening the fourth water diversion port 134 when moving along the second direction 9; the water inlet 11, the second water diversion port 132, the third water diversion port 133 and the second water outlet 122 are suitable for being connected in sequence; the water inlet 11, the first water diversion port 131 and the first water outlet 121 are suitable for being connected in sequence; the water inlet 11, the second water diversion port 132, the fourth water diversion port 134 and the third water outlet 123 are suitable for being connected in sequence to increase the water outlet function and be more convenient to use.

[0099] The rotation button 5 is limitedly matched with the second switching member 3 along the first direction 8 and the second direction 9, so that the second switching member 3 can be driven to move along the first direction 8 and the second direction 9 when rotating.

[0100] In an exemplary embodiment, it also includes a second reset member 7, which is suitable for applying a force to the second switching member 3 to make the second switching member 3 move along the first direction 8, so that when water is stopped, it is reset to the state of blocking the fourth water diversion port 134 and opening the third water diversion port 133, thereby automatically switching to the common position when water is stopped.

[0101] In an exemplary embodiment, the hook groove 44 is provided with a first arc surface 441, a second arc surface 442 and a third arc surface 443 which are connected in sequence, the first arc surface 441 protrudes toward the hook body 521, the second arc surface 442 and the third arc surface 443 are recessed in the direction away from the hook body 521, and the hook body 521 is provided with a fourth arc surface, a fifth arc surface and a sixth arc surface which are parallel to the first arc surface 441, the second arc surface 442 and the third arc surface 443 respectively, so as to facilitate the introduction of the hook body 521 into the hook groove 44, increase the contact area between the hook body 521 and the hook groove 44, and at the same time make the combined force between the hook body 521 and the groove 44 always at an angle formed by the force pressing the button 4 up and down, so that the movement process is in a clamping state in real time, thereby improving the bite and anti-slip effect.
