Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bathroom equipment technology, specifically a shower body. Background Technology

[0002] The shower body is an essential accessory in bathroom fixtures. It mixes cold water from the cold water pipes and hot water from the hot water pipes, distributing the water through different outlets to achieve various showering effects. Currently, some shower bodies on the market are equipped with waterfall nozzles. These nozzles are installed inside the shower body and have a straight opening. An internal cavity connects to this opening, allowing water to flow through the cavity and out through the opening, creating a waterfall effect. However, in existing shower bodies, the internal cavity of the waterfall nozzle is simply an empty space with a small capacity. This results in a rapid water flow when the shower is turned on, a poor waterfall effect, and a subpar user experience.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to design a shower body to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the problems existing in the prior art and provide a shower body.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model employs the following technical solution:

[0006] A shower body includes a valve body and a waterfall outlet. The valve body has a valve core, a valve body inlet, and a first outlet on one side of the valve body. The waterfall outlet has a cavity inside, and a waterfall outlet communicating with the cavity is located at the bottom of the waterfall outlet. A waterfall inlet for connecting with the first outlet is located on one side of the waterfall outlet. The inner top wall of the cavity has multiple spaced upper baffles, and the inner bottom wall has multiple spaced lower baffles. The upper and lower baffles are staggered to divide the cavity into a meandering water flow channel. The waterfall inlet and waterfall outlet are located at opposite ends of the water flow channel.

[0007] Preferably, both the waterfall inlet and the first outlet are circular holes, and the waterfall inlet and the first outlet are connected by a connector. One end of the connector is inserted into the waterfall inlet, and the other end is inserted into the first outlet. Both ends of the connector are provided with sealing rings.

[0008] Preferably, the connector has protrusions in the middle that can abut against the waterfall inlet and the first outlet, and the waterfall outlet is detachably connected to the valve body.

[0009] Preferably, the valve body is provided with a connecting block on the side where the first water outlet is located, and the waterfall water outlet is provided with a slot that cooperates with the connecting block on the side where the waterfall water inlet is located. The waterfall water outlet and the connecting block are connected by screws.

[0010] Preferably, the waterfall outlet includes a bottom body and a top cover, the bottom body and the top cover are sealed together, the upper baffle is disposed on the top cover, and the lower baffle is disposed on the bottom body.

[0011] Preferably, the waterfall outlet is made of plastic, and the valve body is made of metal.

[0012] Preferably, the shower body further includes a housing, which is connected to the valve body and the waterfall outlet by screws.

[0013] Preferably, the outer shell is made of plastic.

[0014] Preferably, the valve body has a second outlet at the top and a third and a fourth outlet at the bottom.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0016] The waterfall outlet component of this invention has a large cavity capacity and is equipped with multiple upper baffles and multiple lower baffles arranged in an alternating pattern. The upper and lower baffles divide the cavity into a meandering water flow channel. After the switch is turned on, the water flows from the valve body through the waterfall inlet into the cavity and flows along the meandering water flow channel inside the cavity. This slows down the water flow, making the water flow that finally flows out of the waterfall outlet smoother, resulting in a better waterfall effect and a better user experience.

[0017] Furthermore, a connector is used to connect the waterfall inlet to the first outlet of the valve body. The water sealing structure with a connector and a sealing ring for the round hole is simpler than other water sealing structures with threads and sealing rings or with product backing and sealing rings. It does not require tapping or backing, making assembly easier and manufacturing costs lower. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The present invention will be further illustrated below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Furthermore, it should be understood that after reading the teachings of this invention, those skilled in the art can make various alterations or modifications to the present invention, and these equivalent forms also fall within the scope defined in this application.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a shower body includes a valve body 1 and a waterfall outlet 2. The valve body 1 is provided with a valve core 3, a valve body inlet 4, and a first outlet 5 located on one side of the valve body. The waterfall outlet 2 is provided with a cavity 7. The bottom of the waterfall outlet 2 is provided with a waterfall outlet 8 communicating with the cavity 7. The side of the waterfall outlet 2 is provided with a waterfall inlet 9 for connecting with the first outlet 5. The inner top wall of the cavity 7 is provided with multiple spaced upper baffles 10, and the inner bottom wall is provided with multiple spaced lower baffles 11. The upper baffles 10 and lower baffles 11 are staggered, dividing the cavity 7 into a meandering water flow channel. The waterfall inlet 9 and the waterfall outlet 8 are located at the two ends of the water flow channel, respectively.

[0026] Specifically, the valve body 1 is existing technology. A first outlet 5 on one side of the valve body 1 supplies water to the waterfall water outlet 2. A second outlet 6 is also provided at the top of the valve body for supplying water to the overhead shower spray. A third outlet 19 and a fourth outlet 20 are also provided at the bottom of the valve body for supplying water to the hand shower spray and spray gun, respectively. The water flow from each outlet is switched via a valve core. In this embodiment, the cavity 7 of the waterfall water outlet 2 has a large capacity and is internally equipped with multiple staggered upper baffles 10 and multiple lower baffles 11, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the upper baffle 10 and the lower baffle 11 divide the cavity 7 into a meandering water flow channel. After the switch is turned on, the water flows from the valve body 1 into the cavity 7 through the waterfall inlet 9 and flows along the meandering water flow channel inside the cavity 7. This slows down the water flow, making the water flow that finally flows out of the waterfall outlet 8 smoother, resulting in a better waterfall effect and a better user experience.

[0027] In some embodiments, both the waterfall inlet 9 and the first outlet 5 are circular holes. The waterfall inlet 9 and the first outlet 5 are connected by a connector 12. One end of the connector 12 is inserted into the waterfall inlet 9, and the other end is inserted into the first outlet 5. Both ends of the connector 12 are provided with sealing rings, forming a seal between the connector 12 and the waterfall inlet 9, and a seal between the connector 12 and the first outlet 5. Currently, most shower bodies on the market use a hose with both ends screwed to the waterfall outlet and the valve body, which is costly to produce and inconvenient to assemble. In this embodiment, the connector 12 is used to connect the waterfall inlet 9 and the first outlet 5 of the valve body 1. The water-sealing structure of the circular hole with the connector 12 and sealing ring is simpler than other water-sealing structures using threads and sealing rings or product overlocking and sealing rings. It does not require tapping or overlocking, making assembly easier and manufacturing costs lower.

[0028] The connector 12 has a protrusion 13 in the middle that can abut against the waterfall inlet 9 and the first outlet 5 respectively. The waterfall outlet 2 is detachably connected to the valve body 1. The waterfall outlet 2 is connected and fixed to the valve body 1. The waterfall inlet 9 and the first outlet 5 abut against the protrusion 13 in the middle of the connector 12 respectively. The connector 12 is fixed to the waterfall inlet 9 and the first outlet 5 respectively.

[0029] Specifically, a connecting block 14 is provided on the valve body 1 on the side where the first water outlet 5 is located, and a slot 15 that cooperates with the connecting block 14 is provided on the side where the waterfall water outlet 9 is located. The waterfall water outlet 2 and the connecting block 14 are connected by screws. The connecting block 14 is provided with screw holes, and the waterfall water outlet 2 is provided with through holes. The screw passes through the through holes and connects with the screw holes to fix the waterfall water outlet 2 and the connecting block 14 (valve body 1).

[0030] In some embodiments, the waterfall outlet 2 includes a bottom body 16 and a top cover 17, which are sealed together. An upper baffle 10 is disposed on the top cover 17, and a lower baffle 11 is disposed on the bottom body 16. The top baffle can be connected to the bottom body 16 with screws. In this embodiment, the waterfall outlet 2 is designed with a detachable connection between the bottom body 16 and the top cover 17, which facilitates the processing of the upper and lower baffles 11 and reduces processing difficulty.

[0031] In some embodiments, the waterfall outlet 2 is made of plastic, and the valve body 1 is made of metal. In this embodiment, the more complex-shaped parts are made of plastic for easier processing and manufacturing, while the valve body 1 is made of metal (e.g., copper) so that the water passage is more pressure-resistant, heat-resistant, and cold-resistant.

[0032] In some embodiments, the shower body further includes a housing 18, which is connected to the valve body 1 and the waterfall outlet 2 by screws. The housing 18 may be made of plastic, which is easier to process into more complex shapes compared to metal (copper).
