Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of shower pipes, in particular to a bathroom curved pipe with good rotation performance. Background Art

[0002] The elbow (also called shower rod, shower rod) is an important component in the shower system. It is mainly used to support and connect the shower head and the water supply pipe. Its name comes from the bend at its top.

[0003] The water outlet end of the curved pipe is adjacent to the nozzle. The existing curved pipe water outlet end cannot be adjusted, which limits the use range of the nozzle. Although some nozzles can rotate, they can only rotate within a certain vertical plane, which is a large limitation. The purpose of the utility model is to propose a new curved pipe structure to solve the above problems, increase the rotation range of the curved pipe water outlet end to improve the applicability of the nozzle. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to provide a sanitary elbow with good rotation performance to solve the problems mentioned in the background technology.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: including a curved pipe body, a sphere, a ball seat, an annular baffle, fixed fins and movable fins, the sphere is located at the end of the curved pipe body, a water outlet is provided at the bottom of the sphere, a water outlet pipe is provided at the bottom of the ball seat, the sphere is installed on the ball seat to form a spherical pair with the ball seat, the annular baffle is connected to the side of the ball seat, the fixed fins are distributed on the annular baffle in an annular shape with equal spacing, the movable fins are distributed on the side of the sphere in an annular shape with equal spacing, and the movable fins can be inserted into the gaps between the fixed fins.

[0006] To optimize the above technical solution, further measures are taken: the thickness of the upper part of the fixed fin is greater than the thickness of the lower part of the fixed fin. Through the change of thickness, the upper parts of adjacent fixed fins can cooperate with each other to clamp the movable fins to fix the position of the water outlet pipe.

[0007] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: both sides of the upper part of the fixed fin are inclined, and the inclined design helps the movable fin to fit into the gap of the fixed fin.

[0008] As a further improvement of the technical solution: it also includes supporting fins, which are distributed in a ring shape with equal intervals on the annular baffle, and the supporting fins are located on the inner side of the annular baffle and surrounded by fixed fins. The purpose of setting the supporting fins is to clamp the movable fins that move downward, thereby further improving the effect of fixing the position of the water outlet pipe.

[0009] As an improvement to the above technical solution: the thickness of the upper portion of the supporting fin is smaller than the thickness of the lower portion of the supporting fin. Through the thickness variation, the upper portions of adjacent supporting fins cooperate with each other to clamp the movable fins, thereby fixing the position of the water outlet pipe.

[0010] Furthermore: the number and position of the supporting fins and the fixed fins correspond to each other, ensuring that the supporting fins and the fixed fins interfere with each other to fix the position of the movable fins.

[0011] From the above description of the structure of the utility model, it can be seen that compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following advantages:

[0012] The utility model provides a bathroom elbow with good rotation performance. By changing the relative position of a movable fin and a fixed fin, the movable fin is clamped by a fixed fin and a supporting fin to fix the position of a water outlet pipe. The position of the movable fin is adjusted by a spherical pair, and the rotation angle is large. The movable fin is circumferentially arranged, so the rotation range is wide and can meet practical needs. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0018] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0019] Example

[0020] See also Figure 1-3The utility model provides a bathroom elbow with good rotation performance, including an elbow body 1, a ball 2, a ball seat 3, an annular baffle 4, a fixed fin 5, a movable fin 6 and a supporting fin 7. The ball 2 is located at the end of the elbow body 1, a water outlet 201 is opened at the bottom of the ball 2, and a water outlet pipe 301 is arranged at the bottom of the ball seat 3. The ball 2 is installed on the ball seat 3 to form a spherical pair with the ball seat 3. The annular baffle 4 is connected to the side of the ball seat 3. The fixed fins 5 are distributed on the annular baffle 4 in an annular shape with equal spacing. The thickness of the upper part of the fixed fin 5 is greater than the thickness of the lower part of the fixed fin 5, and both sides of the upper part of the fixed fin 5 are inclined. The movable fins 6 are distributed in a ring shape at equal intervals on the side of the sphere 2, and the movable fins 6 can be inserted into the gap of the fixed fin 5. The supporting fins 7 are distributed in a ring shape at equal intervals on the annular baffle 4. The supporting fins 7 are located on the inner side of the annular baffle 4 and are surrounded by the fixed fins 5. The thickness of the upper part of the supporting fins 7 is less than the thickness of the lower part of the supporting fins 7. The number and position of the supporting fins 7 and the fixed fins 5 correspond.

[0021] Working principle: The water flow in the elbow body 1 can leave the water outlet pipe 301 on the ball seat 3 through the water outlet 201 on the sphere 2 to achieve water discharge. After the angle of the water outlet pipe 301 changes, the water flow can still flow between the water outlet 201 and the water outlet pipe 301 and will not be affected by the angle of the water outlet pipe 301.

[0022] The user moves the water outlet pipe 301 to offset the relative position of the movable fin 6 and the fixed fin 5 located on the side of the sphere 2. The movable fin 6 on one side will be inserted into the fixed fin 5 and the movable fin 6 on the other side of the annular baffle 4 will be inserted into the supporting fin 7. The movable fin 6 and the fixed fin 5, and the movable fin 6 and the fixed fin 5 are used to fix the position of the ball seat 3, thereby adjusting the position of the water outlet pipe 301. Since the movable plate is circumferentially arranged on the side of the sphere 2, the adjustment range of the water outlet pipe 301 is wide and can be adjusted arbitrarily to realize the rotation of the water outlet pipe 301 in any direction relative to the curved pipe body 1.

[0023] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art may still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
