Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of kitchen and bathroom, in particular to a side-pressed shower head. Background Art

[0002] Showers with switching functions on the market mostly use switching parts with push buttons or keys on the front. When in use, especially when holding the shower head, if the user wants to switch the water outlet function, the user needs to change the angle of holding the shower head so that the thumb can press or push the switching part in a more comfortable direction. After completing the switching action, the angle of holding the shower head needs to be adjusted to facilitate water outlet. It can be seen that the existing switching structure setting is unreasonable and needs further improvement. Summary of the invention

[0003] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a shower structure which is easy to switch operation.

[0004] 1. A side-press shower head, comprising a shower head body, a switching assembly and a switching button, wherein:

[0005] The shower body comprises a head and a handle, and a water inlet channel and a plurality of water outlet channels are arranged in the head.

[0006] The switching assembly includes a switching member, a driving member and a resetting member. The switching member is installed in the head, and the water inlet channel is connected to any water outlet channel through the switching member. The driving member is slidably installed in the head or the handle, and is linked to the switching member to drive the switching member to perform a switching action. To facilitate the structural layout, the moving direction of the driving member is parallel to the handle, and an extrusion slope is provided at one end close to the handle. The resetting member is arranged between the shower body and the driving member, and pushes the driving member to move toward one end of the handle, so that the driving member can automatically reset after the driving member is released, which is convenient for the next switching action.

[0007] The switch button is installed on the side of the connection between the head and the handle, and is provided with a driving inclined surface opposite to the extrusion inclined surface. When the button is pressed, the driving inclined surface squeezes the extrusion inclined surface and drives the driving member to move.

[0008] The utility model arranges a switching button on the side of the shower head, and arranges a switching component which adopts an inclined surface and is linked to the switching button inside the shower head, thereby transferring the driving switch designed in the traditional front to the side of the shower head. When the user holds the shower head to discharge water and performs switching actions, there is no need to change the posture of holding the shower head, which has good convenience of use, and the thumb posture is natural and comfortable when pressing the switch. In addition, the moving direction of the driving member is set to be parallel to the handle direction. Considering that the shower head has a larger formation space in the hand axis direction, it is convenient for structural layout and can also improve the flexibility of the setting position of the driving member.

[0009] Preferably, the angle between the extrusion slope and the handle is less than 45°, so that the smaller stroke of the switch button can be converted into a larger stroke of the drive member, which is beneficial to reducing the protruding size of the switch button around the shower head, making the overall shape of the shower head more coordinated and more textured.

[0010] Preferably, the switching member comprises a water-dividing plate, a ratchet and a linkage plate, wherein the water-dividing plate is rotatably mounted in the head of the shower body and is connected and driven by the ratchet.

The linkage arm is linked with the driving member toward one side of the driving member, and the end thereof extends to the periphery or end of the ratchet to link with the ratchet to perform a switching action, so that the driving member can drive the linkage plate to rotate, and then drive the ratchet to rotate through the linkage arm of the linkage plate.

[0011] Preferably, the ratchet is provided with a one-way ratchet on its periphery, and the end of the linkage arm is provided with a driving tooth. The linkage arm drives the ratchet to rotate in one direction through the driving tooth and the one-way ratchet. When the linkage disk and the linkage arm are reset, the end of the linkage arm moves relative to the periphery of the ratchet. At this time, the driving tooth exits from one ratchet tooth and enters the next ratchet tooth without driving the ratchet to rotate back.

[0012] Preferably, the extension direction of the linkage arm is opposite to the direction of the driving action of the driving member, and the driving tooth is a hook and is arranged on the side of the end of the linkage arm facing the ratchet. The linkage arm hooks the ratchet through the driving tooth and drives the ratchet to rotate unidirectionally by pulling. When the switching action is performed, even if the linkage arm is deformed, the hook is not easy to disengage from the ratchet.

[0013] Preferably, the extension direction of the linkage arm is in the same direction as the driving direction of the driving member, the driving teeth are arranged at the end of the connecting rod, the linkage arm supports the ratchet teeth through the driving teeth, and drives the ratchet wheel to rotate unidirectionally by pushing.

[0014] Preferably, a mounting groove is provided on the side of the driving member facing the switching member, and a docking joint is provided on the end of the linkage arm facing the driving member, the docking joint is inserted into the mounting groove, and the driving member drives the linkage disk to rotate through the mounting groove and the docking joint.

[0015] Preferably, the switching assembly further comprises a limiting rod, one end of which is mounted in the head of the shower body, and the other end of which extends and bears against the ratchet teeth of the ratchet wheel.

[0016] Preferably, a linkage column is provided at the center of the water diversion plate, a linkage hole is provided in the middle of the ratchet wheel, a clearance opening is provided in the middle of the linkage plate, and a mounting cavity is provided in the shower body. The water diversion plate is rotatably mounted in the mounting cavity, the linkage column extends from the mounting cavity, passes through the clearance opening of the linkage plate and docks with the linkage hole of the ratchet wheel, the linkage column and the linkage hole have the same cross-section and are non-circular, so that the ratchet wheel can drive the water diversion plate to rotate.

[0017] Preferably, the driving member is in the shape of a strip, and a slide groove for the driving member to slide is provided in the head of the shower body. The driving member is also provided with a strip hole along the sliding square, and a screw is passed through the strip hole and screwed into the shower head. The reset member is a spring, which is compressed and arranged between the end of the driving member and the head of the shower body.

[0018] From the above description of the utility model, it can be seen that the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] The utility model arranges a switch button on the side of the shower head, and arranges a switch assembly that adopts an inclined surface and a switch button linkage inside the shower head, thereby transferring the driving switch of the traditional front design to the side of the shower head. When the user holds the shower head to discharge water and performs the switching action, there is no need to change the posture of holding the shower head, which has good convenience of use, and the thumb posture is natural and comfortable when pressing the switch.

[0020] The moving direction of the driving member is set to be parallel to the handle direction, considering that the shower head has a larger forming space in the hand axis direction, which is convenient for structural layout and can also improve the flexibility of the setting position of the driving member;

[0021] The angle between the extrusion slope and the handle is less than 45°, so that the smaller stroke of the switch button can be converted into a larger stroke of the driving member, which is conducive to reducing the protruding size of the switch button around the shower head, making the overall shape of the shower head more coordinated and more textured;

[0022] In the switching member, the linkage arm of the linkage disk can drive the ratchet wheel to rotate in one direction by pulling. In this driving mode, when the switching action is performed, even if the linkage arm is deformed, the hook thereof is not easy to be disengaged from the ratchet tooth;

[0023] The limiting rod is provided to effectively prevent the reverse rotation of the ratchet wheel and the water distribution plate. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0037] In one embodiment, the switching member 21 includes a water-dividing plate 211, a ratchet 212 and a linkage plate 213. The water-dividing plate 211 is rotatably mounted in the head 11 of the shower body 1 and is connected and driven by the ratchet 212. The linkage plate 213 is coaxially rotatably mounted in the head 11 of the shower body 1 with the ratchet 212, and a linkage arm 2131 is provided at the periphery. The linkage arm 2131 is linked with the driving member 22 toward one side of the driving member 22, and the end thereof extends to the periphery or end of the ratchet 212 to link with the ratchet 212 to perform a switching action, so that the driving member 22 can drive the linkage plate 213 to rotate, and then drive the ratchet 212 to rotate through the linkage arm 2131 of the linkage plate 213.

[0038] Specifically, the periphery of the ratchet 212 is provided with a unidirectional ratchet, and the end of the linkage arm 2131 is provided with a driving tooth. The linkage arm 2131 drives the ratchet 212 to rotate unidirectionally through the driving tooth and the unidirectional ratchet. When the linkage disk 213 and the linkage arm 2131 are reset, the end of the linkage arm 2131 moves relative to the periphery of the ratchet 212. At this time, the linkage arm 2131 is deformed, and the driving tooth exits from one ratchet tooth and enters the next ratchet tooth, without driving the ratchet 212 to rotate back. In this embodiment, the extension direction of the linkage arm 2131 is opposite to the driving direction of the driving member 22. The driving tooth is a hook and is arranged on the side of the end of the linkage arm 2131 facing the ratchet 212. The linkage arm 2131 hooks the ratchet tooth through the driving tooth and drives the ratchet 212 to rotate unidirectionally by pulling. When the driving mode is switching, even if the linkage arm 2131 is deformed, its hook is not easy to be unhooked from the ratchet tooth. In another embodiment, if Figure 5 The extending direction of the linkage arm 2131 is in the same direction as the driving direction of the driving member 22. The driving teeth are arranged at the end of the linkage rod. The linkage arm 2131 supports the ratchet teeth through the driving teeth and drives the ratchet wheel 212 to rotate in one direction by pushing.

[0039] In addition, with respect to other specific structures of the switching member 21 and its installation method, in one embodiment, a linkage column is provided at the center of the water diversion plate 211, a linkage hole is provided at the middle of the ratchet 212, a clearance opening is provided at the middle of the linkage plate 213, and a mounting cavity is provided in the shower body 1. The water diversion plate 211 is rotatably mounted in the mounting cavity, the linkage column extends from the mounting cavity, passes through the clearance opening of the linkage plate 213 and docks with the linkage hole of the ratchet 212, the linkage column and the linkage hole have the same cross-section and are non-circular, so that the ratchet 212 can drive the water diversion plate 211 to rotate.

[0040] In another embodiment, the switching assembly 2 further comprises a limiting rod, one end of which is installed in the head 11 of the shower body 1 , and the other end of which extends to support the ratchet teeth of the ratchet wheel 212 .

[0041] The driving member 22 is slidably mounted in the head 11 and linked with the switching member 21 to drive the switching member 21 to perform a switching action. Of course, in other embodiments, the driving member 22 can also be slidably mounted in the handle 12.

[0042] The moving direction of the driving member 22 is parallel to the handle 12, and an extrusion slope 221 is provided at one end close to the handle 12. The reset member 23 is arranged between the head 11 and the driving member 22, and pushes the driving member 22 to move toward one end of the handle 12, so that the driving member 22 can be automatically reset after being released, which is convenient for the next switching action.

[0043] In one embodiment, the driving member 22 is in a strip shape, and a slide groove 111 is provided in the head 11 of the shower body 1 for the driving member 22 to slide. The driving member 22 is also provided with a strip hole along the sliding square, and a screw is passed through the strip hole and screwed into the shower head 11, so that the driving member 22 is relatively fixed to the shower body and can slide. The reset member 23 is a spring, which is compressed and arranged between the end of the driving member 22 and the shower body 1.

[0044] The switch button 3 is installed at the side of the connection between the head 11 and the handle 12, and is provided with a driving inclined surface 31 opposite to the extrusion inclined surface 221. When the button is pressed, the driving inclined surface 31 squeezes the extrusion inclined surface 221 and drives the driving member 22 to move.

[0045] In one embodiment, the angle between the extrusion slope 221 and the handle 12 is less than 45°, so that the smaller stroke of the switch button 3 can be converted into a larger stroke of the driving member 22, which is beneficial to reducing the protruding size of the switch button 3 around the shower head, making the overall shape of the shower head more coordinated and more textured.

[0046] When in use, the user presses the switch button 3, the switch button 3 is compressed, and the driving inclined surface 31 contacts and squeezes the squeezing inclined surface 221, causing the driving member 22 to shrink into the head 11 of the shower body 1, and then the shrinking action drives the linkage disk 213 to rotate, and the linkage disk 213 drives the ratchet 212 to rotate through the linkage arm 2131, and finally the ratchet 212 drives the water diversion disk 211 to rotate, thereby achieving the purpose of switching the water outlet.

[0047] The utility model arranges a switch button 3 on the side of the shower head, and arranges a switch assembly 2 which adopts an inclined surface and is linked to the switch button 3 inside the shower head, thereby transferring the driving switch of the traditional front design to the side of the shower head. When the user holds the shower head to discharge water and performs switching actions, there is no need to change the posture of holding the shower head, which has good convenience of use, and the thumb posture is natural and comfortable when pressing the switch.

[0048] The utility model is described above by way of example in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It is obvious that the specific implementation of the utility model is not limited to the above-mentioned method. As long as various non-substantial improvements are made using the method concept and technical solution of the utility model, or the concept and technical solution of the utility model are directly applied to other occasions without improvement, they are all within the protection scope of the utility model.
