[0014] The tenth technical solution relates to a shower head provided with a handle, wherein the shower head comprises a water outlet device as described in any one of technical solutions 1 to 9, wherein the through hole is located at the handle.
[0015] From the above description of the utility model, it can be seen that compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] In the first technical solution, the base is provided with a through hole that passes through the water channel along the first direction, and the hole wall of the through hole is provided with a first water outlet connected to the water inlet and a second water outlet connected to the water outlet, and the operating member is slidably arranged in the through hole along the first direction and is sealed with both ends of the through hole, so that water will not leak out from the through hole. The operating member is also suitable for being operated to slide between a first position and a second position along the first direction, and one end of the elastic member abuts against the sealing member and the other end abuts against the operating member to make the sealing member abut against the hole wall of the through hole, so that the sealing member can be correspondingly blocked or opened by changing the position of the operating member to realize opening and closing of water outlet, and when the operating member is located between the first position and the second position, the corresponding part of the sealing member blocks the first water outlet and / or the second water outlet, thereby changing the water flow area of the corresponding water outlet and realizing flow regulation. Therefore, the water outlet device using this technical solution can open and close the water outlet and adjust the flow rate by operating only one component, and the flow rate change is roughly linearly related to the sliding distance of the operating part. It also has a simple structure, fewer parts, and is easy to assemble.
[0017] In the second technical solution, the sealing member seals the second water outlet accordingly, completely opens the second water outlet, or partially blocks the second water outlet as the position of the operating member changes, and the second water outlet is connected to the water outlet, so that the direction of the force exerted by the elastic member on the sealing member is the same as the direction of the water flow. Therefore, the elastic force required by the elastic member is smaller, and the sealing effect can be improved by water pressure to avoid water leakage.
[0018] In the third technical solution, a first groove is provided on the operating member, the first groove is located between the two ends of the operating member and the through hole seal, and its opening faces the hole wall where the second water outlet is located. The elastic member is installed in the first groove, one end of which abuts against the seal and the other end abuts against the bottom wall of the first groove. This facilitates assembly and can also prevent the elastic member from being separated from the seal during the sliding of the operating member.
[0019] In the fourth technical solution, a second groove is provided on the sealing member, the opening of the second groove faces the bottom of the first groove, the side wall of the second groove is at least partially located in the first groove, one end of the elastic member presses against the bottom wall of the second groove and the other end presses against the bottom wall of the first groove, so that the sealing member is sleeved outside the elastic member and then installed in the first groove, which is easier to assemble and has better structural stability, thereby preventing the sealing member and the elastic member from being separated from the pressing or shifting in position during the sliding of the operating member, thereby preventing the functions of opening and closing the water outlet and regulating the flow rate from being realized.
[0020] In the fifth technical solution, by making the operating member compatible with the through hole, the operating member is provided with a water channel and a convex rib located on the side wall of the operating member, the water channel is suitable for connecting the first water outlet and the second water outlet, and the convex rib is suitable for pressing against the hole wall of the through hole. Compared with the situation where water flows from the first water outlet to the second water outlet through the gap between the hole wall of the through hole and the side wall of the operating member (in this case, the gap between the hole wall of the through hole and the side wall of the operating member must be large enough, otherwise even if the first water outlet and the second water outlet are in a fully open state, the water flow rate is still small, but if the gap between the hole wall of the through hole and the side wall of the operating member is increased in order not to affect the water flow rate, it will result in a larger assembly gap, which may affect the sealing of the operating member and the through hole and cause water to leak from the through hole), the assembly gap of the operating member can be reduced to avoid shaking and thus avoid affecting the sealing of the operating member and the through hole without affecting the water flow.
[0021] In the sixth technical solution, by making the projections of the operating member and the through hole on the projection plane perpendicular to the first direction elliptical, it is avoided that the operating member rotates after being slid into the through hole, causing the sealing member to be unable to seal the corresponding water outlet, and it is beneficial to quickly locate the assembly position during assembly.
[0022] In the seventh technical solution, by arranging the first stop portion and the second stop portion on the base, when the operating member is operated to slide from the first position to the second position, the first stop portion presses against the operating member to limit the operating member from continuing to slide; when the operating member is operated to slide from the second position to the second position, the second stop portion presses against the operating member to limit the operating member from continuing to slide, thereby limiting the first operating member and the second operating member from continuing to slide in the same direction under force, thereby preventing the operating member from falling out of the through hole.
[0023] In the eighth technical solution, the operating member is provided with a first operating part and a second operating part suitable for being operated at both ends along the first direction respectively. In the first position, the distance that the first operating part protrudes from the water channel is greater than the distance that the second operating part protrudes from the water channel. In the second position, the distance that the second operating part protrudes from the water channel is greater than the distance that the first operating part protrudes from the water channel, which is helpful for the user to identify the current water outlet state of the water outlet device.
[0024] In the ninth technical solution, by splitting the operating part into the first operating cover, the second operating cover and the shaft core, it is convenient for production and manufacturing, and during assembly, the shaft core can be first installed into the through hole, and then the first operating cover and the second operating cover can be assembled, so that the operating part can be installed in the through hole when the first stop platform and the second stop platform are provided.
[0025] In the tenth technical solution, by providing a through hole on the handle, it is convenient for the user to operate the operating member. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0042] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this embodiment provides a shower head, which includes a base 1, an operating member 8, a sealing member 9 and an elastic member 10.
[0043] like Figure 1-3As shown in Figures 6-7, the base 1 is provided with a water inlet 2, a water outlet 3, a water passage 4 and a through hole 5 passing through the water passage 4 along a first direction 23. The water passage 4 is suitable for connecting the water inlet 2 and the water outlet 3. The hole wall of the through hole 5 is provided with a first water passage 6 connected to the water inlet 2 and a second water passage 7 connected to the water outlet 3. On the projection plane perpendicular to the first direction 23, the projection of the through hole 5 is roughly elliptical. The base 1 is also provided with a first stopper 15 and a second stopper 16, which are respectively located at both ends of the through hole 5 along the first direction 23 and both protrude into the through hole 5. In this embodiment, the base 1 includes a seat body 24, a water inlet connector 25, a water outlet cover 26 and a surface cover 27. The seat body 24 is provided with a handle 22. The water passage 4 is at least partially located in the handle 22, and the through hole 5 is located at the handle 22. The water inlet connector 25 is fixedly connected to the handle 22 and is provided with a water inlet 2. The water outlet cover 26 is provided with a water outlet 3. The surface cover 27 is fixedly connected to the seat body 24 so as to fix the water outlet cover 26 to the seat body 24.
[0044] like Figure 3-7As shown, the operating member 8 is slidably disposed in the through hole 5 along the first direction 23 and is sealed with the through hole 5. It is also suitable for being operated to slide between the first position and the second position along the first direction 23. Specifically, the operating member 8 is adapted to the size of the through hole 5, and sealing rings are respectively provided at both ends of the operating member 8 along the first direction 23 to achieve sealing with the through hole 5. Therefore, the sealing cooperation between the operating member 8 and the through hole 5 should be understood as preventing the water flow from flowing out of the through hole 5, but when the sealing member 9 described later does not block the water outlet (the first water outlet 6 and the second water outlet 7 are both water outlets), the water flow can flow from the first water outlet 6 to the second water outlet 7. In this embodiment, the first water outlet 6 and the second water outlet 7 are always located between the two sealing rings in the first direction 23. The operating member 8 is roughly in the shape of an elliptical cylinder, and the projection of the operating member 8 on the projection plane perpendicular to the first direction 23 is also roughly in the shape of an ellipse. The operating member 8 is provided with a first groove 11, a water passage 13 and a convex rib 14 protruding outwardly from the side wall of the operating member 8. The first groove 11 is provided on the outer wall of the operating member 8, and its opening faces the hole wall where the second water outlet 7 is located. The first groove 11 is also located between two sealing rings. The convex rib 14 extends along the first direction 23, and may also extend along other directions in other embodiments. It is suitable for abutting against the hole wall of the through hole 5. The water passage 13 is suitable for connecting the first water outlet 6 and the second water outlet 7, and is also located between two sealing rings. The operating member 8 is also provided with a first operating portion 17 and a second operating portion 18 respectively at both ends along the first direction 23, and the user can press the first operating portion 17 or the second operating portion 18 to slide the operating member 8 along the first direction 23 between the first position and the second position. In the first position, the distance that the first operating portion 17 protrudes from the water passage 4 is greater than the distance that the second operating portion 18 protrudes from the water passage 4; in the second position, the distance that the second operating portion 18 protrudes from the water passage 4 is greater than the distance that the first operating portion 17 protrudes from the water passage 4. In this embodiment, in the first position, the second operating portion 18 is flush with the handle 22, and in the second position, the first operating portion 17 is flush with the handle 22. When the operating member 8 is operated to slide from the first position to the second position, the first stopper 15 abuts against the operating member 8 to limit the operating member 8 from continuing to slide; when the operating member 8 is operated to slide from the second position to the first position, the second stopper 16 abuts against the operating member 8 to limit the operating member 8 from continuing to slide. In this embodiment, the operating member 8 includes a first operating cover 19, a second operating cover 20 and an axis core 21. The first operating cover 19 and the second operating cover 20 are respectively fixed to the two ends of the axis core 21 (interference fit is used for fixing in this embodiment, and other methods such as screw fixing can also be used in other embodiments). The first operating cover 19 forms a first operating portion 17, and the second operating cover 20 forms a second operating portion 18. The first stop portion 15 is suitable for pressing against the first operating cover 19 to limit the operating member 8 from continuing to slide, and the second stop portion 16 is suitable for pressing against the second operating cover 20 to limit the operating member 8 from continuing to slide.Both ends of the shaft core 21 are sealed with the through hole 5 , and are provided with the aforementioned sealing ring, the first groove 11 and the water passage 13 .
[0045] like Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, the sealing member 9 is provided with a second groove 12, and the opening of the second groove 12 faces the groove bottom of the first groove 11. In this embodiment, the sealing member 9 is substantially cylindrical.
[0046] like Figure 7-8 As shown, the elastic member 10, one end of which presses against the sealing member 9 and the other end presses against the shaft core 21 of the operating member 8 so that the sealing member 9 presses against the hole wall of the through hole 5. Specifically, the elastic member 10 is installed in the first groove 11, one end of which presses against the bottom wall of the second groove 12, and the other end presses against the bottom wall of the first groove 11. At this time, the cylindrical sealing member 9 is sleeved outside the elastic member 10 and installed in the first groove 11, and the side wall of the second groove 12 thereon is at least partially located in the first groove 11, and the outer wall surface of the bottom wall of the second groove 12 presses against the hole wall of the through hole 5, thereby realizing the change of the water flow area of the second water outlet 7 described later. When the operating member 8 is in the first position, the sealing member 9 seals the second water passage 7 so that the water inlet 2 cannot be connected to the water outlet 3. When the operating member 8 is in the second position, the sealing member 9 completely opens the second water passage 7, and the water inlet 2 is connected to the first water passage 6 to connect to the water passage 13, thereby connecting to the second water passage 7 to connect to the water outlet 3. When the operating member 8 is between the first position and the second position, the sealing member 9 is suitable for correspondingly partially blocking the second water passage 7 to change the water flow area of the second water passage 7. At this time, the water inlet 2 can still be connected to the first water passage 6, the water passage 13 and the second water passage 7 to connect to the water outlet 3.
[0047] When assembling the operating member 8, first install the elastic member 10 into the second groove 12 and then install the sealing member 9 into the first groove 11, then install the shaft core 21 into the through hole 5, and then fix the first operating cover 19 and the second operating cover 20 to the two ends of the shaft core 21 respectively.
[0048] The working principle of the shower in this embodiment is as follows:
[0049] like Figure 7As shown, when the second operating part 18 is pressed so that the second operating part 18 abuts against the second stopper 16, the operating member 8 is located at the first position, the first operating part 17 protrudes from the handle 22, the second operating part 18 is flush with the handle 22, the sealing member 9 completely seals the second water outlet 7, the first water outlet 6 cannot be connected to the second water outlet 7, and the shower does not discharge water. When the first operating part 17 is pressed to make the operating member 8 slide along the first direction 23, the sealing member 9 gradually opens the second water outlet 7, so that the first water outlet 6 can be connected to the second water outlet 7 through the water passage 13. At this time, the water inlet 2 is connected to the water outlet 3, and the shower starts to discharge water. As the first operating part 17 continues to be pressed, the water flow area of the second water outlet 7 becomes larger and larger, and the water output of the shower increases approximately linearly. When the first operating part 17 abuts against the first stopper 15, the second water outlet 7 is completely opened, and the flow rate of the shower reaches the maximum. At this time, the first operating part 17 is flush with the handle 22, and the second operating part 18 protrudes from the handle 22. Figure 8 When the operating member 8 is between the first position and the second position, since the two ends of the shaft core 21 are sealed with the through hole 5 through the sealing ring, and the sealing ring has elastic deformation, when the operating member 8 is no longer pressed, the operating member 8 will be stabilized at its current position under the action of the friction force of the sealing ring, so that the shower head maintains the current water output.
[0050] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the sealing member 9 seals the second water outlet 7. In other embodiments, the first groove 11 may also face the first water outlet 6 so that the sealing member 9 can seal the first water outlet 6, or two first grooves 11 may be provided and two sealing members 9 may be used to block the first water outlet 6 and the second water outlet 7 at the same time. In addition, in this embodiment, the communication between the first water outlet 6 and the second water outlet 7 is achieved through the water passage 13. In other embodiments, since both ends of the operating member 8 are sealed with the through hole 5, the water passage 13 may not be provided, but the gap between the middle of the side wall of the operating member 8 and the through hole 5 is used to make the first water outlet 6 communicate with the second water outlet 7, that is, the water flow bypasses the operating member 8 instead of passing through the operating member 8 after entering the through hole 5. However, in this case, the gap between the hole wall of the through hole 5 and the side wall of the operating member 8 must be large enough, otherwise the water flow rate is still small even if the first water outlet 6 and the second water outlet 7 are in a fully open state.
[0051] In this embodiment, the base 1 is provided with a through hole 5 passing through the water channel 4 along the first direction 23, and the hole wall of the through hole 5 is provided with a first water outlet 6 connected to the water inlet 2 and a second water outlet 7 connected to the water outlet 3, and the operating member 8 is slidably arranged in the through hole 5 along the first direction 23 and is sealed with both ends of the through hole 5, so that water will not leak out from the through hole 5. The operating member 8 is also suitable for being operated to slide between a first position and a second position along the first direction 23, and one end of the elastic member 10 abuts against the sealing member 9 and the other end abuts against the operating member 8 so that the sealing member 9 abuts against the hole wall of the through hole 5, so that the sealing member 9 can be made to block or open the first water outlet 6 and / or the second water outlet 7 correspondingly by changing the position of the operating member 8, so as to realize opening and closing of water outlet, and when the operating member 8 is located between the first position and the second position, the sealing member 9 blocks the first water outlet 6 and / or the second water outlet 7 correspondingly, so as to change the water flow area of the corresponding water outlet and realize flow regulation. Therefore, the water outlet device using this technical solution can open and close the water outlet and adjust the flow rate by operating only one component, and the flow rate change is roughly linearly related to the sliding distance of the operating member 8. It also has a simple structure, fewer parts, and is easy to assemble.
[0052] In this embodiment, the sealing member 9 seals the second water outlet 7, completely opens the second water outlet 7, or partially blocks the second water outlet 7 correspondingly as the position of the operating member 8 changes, and the second water outlet 7 is connected to the water outlet 3, so that the direction of the force exerted by the elastic member 10 on the sealing member 9 is the same as the direction of the water flow. Therefore, the elastic force value required by the elastic member 10 is small, and the sealing effect can be improved by water pressure to avoid water leakage.
[0053] In this embodiment, a first groove 11 is provided on the operating member 8, the first groove 11 is located between the two sealing rings, and its opening faces the second water outlet 7. The elastic member 10 is installed in the first groove 11, and one end thereof abuts against the sealing member 9 and the other end abuts against the bottom wall of the first groove 11. This facilitates assembly and can also prevent the elastic member 10 from being separated from the abutment with the sealing member 9 during the sliding process of the operating member 8.
[0054] In this embodiment, a second groove 12 is provided on the sealing member 9, the opening of the second groove 12 faces the bottom of the first groove 11, and the side wall of the second groove 12 is at least partially located in the first groove 11. One end of the elastic member 10 abuts against the bottom wall of the second groove 12 and the other end abuts against the bottom wall of the first groove 11, so that the sealing member 9 is sleeved outside the elastic member 10 and then installed in the first groove 11, which is more convenient for assembly and has better structural stability, thereby preventing the sealing member 9 and the elastic member 10 from being separated from the abutment or shifting in position during the sliding of the operating member 8, thereby preventing the functions of opening and closing the water outlet and regulating the flow rate from being realized.
[0055] In the present embodiment, by making the operating member 8 compatible with the through hole 5, the operating member 8 is provided with a water channel 13 and a convex rib 14 located on the side wall of the operating member 8, the water channel 13 is suitable for connecting the first water outlet 6 and the second water outlet 7, and the convex rib 14 is suitable for abutting against the hole wall of the through hole 5. Compared with the situation where water flows from the first water outlet 6 to the second water outlet 7 through the gap between the hole wall of the through hole 5 and the side wall of the operating member 8, the assembly gap of the operating member 8 can be reduced to avoid shaking, thereby avoiding affecting the sealing of the operating member 8 and the through hole 5, without affecting the water flow rate.
[0056] In this embodiment, by making the projections of the operating member 8 and the through hole 5 on the projection plane perpendicular to the first direction 23 both elliptical, the operating member 8 is prevented from rotating after being slid into the through hole 5, which would cause the sealing member 9 to be unable to seal the corresponding water outlet, and is conducive to the rapid positioning of the assembly position during assembly.
[0057] In this embodiment, by providing the first stop portion 15 and the second stop portion 16 on the base 1, when the operating member 8 is operated to slide from the first position to the second position, the first stop portion 15 presses against the operating member 8 to limit the operating member 8 from continuing to slide; when the operating member 8 is operated to slide from the second position to the second position, the second stop portion 16 presses against the operating member 8 to limit the operating member 8 from continuing to slide, thereby limiting the first operating portion 17 and the second operating portion 18 from continuing to slide in the same direction under force, thereby preventing the operating member 8 from falling out of the through hole 5.
[0058] In this embodiment, the operating member 8 is provided with a first operating portion 17 and a second operating portion 18 suitable for being operated at both ends along the first direction 23. In the first position, the distance that the first operating portion 17 protrudes from the water channel 4 is greater than the distance that the second operating portion 18 protrudes from the water channel 4. In the second position, the distance that the second operating portion 18 protrudes from the water channel 4 is greater than the distance that the first operating portion 17 protrudes from the water channel 4, which is helpful for the user to identify the current water outlet state of the water outlet device.
[0059] In this embodiment, by splitting the operating member 8 into the first operating cover 19, the second operating cover 20 and the shaft core 21, it is convenient for production and manufacturing, and during assembly, the shaft core 21 can be first installed into the through hole 5, and then the first operating cover 19 and the second operating cover 20 can be assembled, so that the operating member 8 can be installed in the through hole 5 when the first stop platform and the second stop platform are provided.
[0060] In this embodiment, by providing the through hole 5 on the handle 22 , it is convenient for the user to operate the operating member 8 .
