[0024] To further illustrate the various embodiments, the present invention provides drawings. These drawings are part of the disclosure of the present invention, which are mainly used to illustrate the embodiments and can be used in conjunction with the relevant descriptions in the specification to explain the operating principles of the embodiments. With reference to these contents, a person of ordinary skill in the art should be able to understand other possible implementations and advantages of the present invention. The components in the figures are not drawn to scale, and similar component symbols are generally used to represent similar components.

[0025] The utility model is now further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 6As shown, the present embodiment provides a button shower head with linkage reset (hereinafter referred to as shower head), the shower head comprises a shower body 4 and a shower handle body 1 connected to each other, the shower handle body 1 having a water inlet channel 11 and three water outlet channels respectively connected to different water outlets of the shower body 4, and also comprising a retractable elastic limiter 2 mounted on the shower handle body 1 and three retractable elastic button shafts 3, the elastic button shaft 3 having a limiting portion and a resetting portion, the elastic limiter 2 having three limiting members 212 cooperating with the limiting portion, the limiting members 212 corresponding to the limiting portions one by one and forming a switch setting, so that the sealing movable end 311 of the elastic button shaft 3 switches between an open position where the water inlet channel 11 is connected to the water inlet of the water outlet channel and a blocked position where the water inlet of the water outlet channel is blocked, and the three resetting portions cooperate with the elastic limiter 2 to form a linkage reset setting.

[0027] In this embodiment, the water inlet of the water inlet channel 11 of the shower handle body 1 is connected to the water source, and the three water outlet channels are respectively connected to the water outlets of the three shower bodies 4, and the water outlet functions corresponding to the three shower bodies 4 are swing water, shower water and spray water respectively.

[0028] The multiple retractable elastic button shafts 3 are multiple shower buttons. The limiting members 212 of the multiple elastic button shafts 3 correspond one-to-one to the limiting parts of the multiple elastic limiting members 2 to form a switch setting, so as to realize the connection between the multiple water outlet channels and the water inlet channels 11 controlled by the multiple shower buttons, thereby realizing multiple water outlet functions. The reset parts of the multiple elastic button shafts 3 cooperate with the elastic limiting members 2 to realize that the multiple shower buttons all have independent reset functions, thereby realizing the linkage reset of the multiple shower buttons, so as to save the volume of the separately set reset button, thereby further reducing the weight for easy use.

[0029] Of course, in other implementations, the number of the water outlet channel, the elastic button shaft 3 and the limiter 212 may also be 2 or more than 4, which will not be described in detail here.

[0030] In another preferred embodiment, the movement trajectory of the elastic limiting member 2 and the movement trajectory of the elastic key shaft 3 are arranged to be perpendicular and cross each other.

[0031] The shower handle body 1 has three installation channels for accommodating the elastic button shaft 3 and vertically penetrating to the water inlet channel 11. The water inlet of the water outlet channel is arranged on the inner wall of the installation channel. The elastic button shaft 3 can be telescopically assembled in the installation channel. The elastic button shaft 3 can be telescopically assembled in the water inlet channel 11.

[0032] More specifically, the elastic button shaft 3 includes a button shaft 31 and a first spring. The button shaft 31 is movably inserted in the installation channel, and one end of the button shaft 31 facing the water inlet channel 11 passes through the channel opening of the installation channel and extends into the water inlet channel 11 to form a sealed moving end 311 of the elastic button shaft 3. The first spring is assembled between the button shaft 31 and the shower handle body 1 to form a retractable setting. The limiting portion is a limiting groove 3111 arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the sealed moving end 311.

[0033] The elastic limiting member 2 includes a limiting slider 21 and a second spring. The limiting slider 21 is slidably mounted on the inner wall of the water inlet channel 11. The second spring is mounted between the limiting slider 21 and the shower handle body 1 to form a retractable arrangement. Figure 4 The limit slider 21 shown has three limit holes 211 passing through the upper and lower surfaces. The second spring applies an elastic force toward the elastic button shaft 3 to the limit slider 21 so that the hole wall of the limit hole 211 abuts against the groove wall of the limit groove 3111 to form a clamping setting. The limit piece 212 is the hole wall of the limit hole 211.

[0034] In this specific embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the shower handle body 1 also includes a shower handle housing 15 and an upper baffle plate 16 and a lower baffle plate 17 which are assembled in the shower handle housing 15 and arranged with an upper and lower spacing, and the extension direction of the upper baffle plate 16 and the lower baffle plate 17 is parallel to the water inlet channel 11.

[0035] The upper baffle plate 16 and the lower baffle plate 17 are connected to form three water outlet channels arranged at intervals, and are divided into a first water outlet channel 12, a second water outlet channel 13 and a third water outlet channel 14 from left to right. The first water outlet channel 12 corresponds to swing water, the second water outlet channel 13 corresponds to shower water, and the third water outlet channel 14 corresponds to spray water. In addition, an interval space is provided between the upper baffle plate 16 and the upper inner wall of the shower handle housing 15 to form a water inlet channel 11, and the water inlet channel 11 is located on the upper layer of the three water outlet channels.

[0036] The lower side wall of the shower handle housing 15, the upper baffle plate 16 and the lower baffle plate 17 are respectively provided with three through channels penetrating the upper and lower surfaces. The through channels of the lower side wall of the shower handle housing 15, the upper baffle plate 16 and the lower baffle plate 17 are connected to form the installation channel of the shower handle body 1. The three button shafts 31 can be movably assembled in the three installation channels, one end of the first spring is inserted in the button shaft 31, and the other end is sleeved on the convex portion of the upper inner wall of the shower handle housing 15, and the water inlets of the three water outlet channels are respectively arranged on the inner walls of the three installation channels, and are all located at the connecting part between the upper baffle plate 16 and the lower baffle plate 17.

[0037] like Figure 5As shown, the outer peripheral surface of the sealing movable end 311 (i.e. the end of the button shaft 31 extending into the water inlet channel 11) has an upper protrusion 3112 and a lower protrusion 3113 protruding outward and arranged at an upper and lower interval, and forms a limiting groove 3111.

[0038] The upper protrusion 3112 is provided with a first inclined guide surface 3114 facing the limiting member 212 to guide the hole wall of the limiting hole 211 to the left, thereby ensuring smooth cooperation between the elastic button shaft 3 and the elastic limiting member 2.

[0039] The three button axes 31 are divided into a first button axis, a second button axis and a third button axis, and the limiting grooves 3111 of the three button axes 31 are divided into a first limiting groove of the first button axis, a second limiting groove of the second button axis and a third limiting groove of the third button axis, and the first button axis cooperates with the first water outlet channel 12, the second button axis cooperates with the second water outlet channel 13, and the third button axis cooperates with the third water outlet channel 14.

[0040] When the first button shaft (or the second button shaft, or one of the shower buttons such as the third button shaft) is pressed, the upper protrusion 3112 of the first button shaft passes through the corresponding first inclined guide surface 3114 and overcomes the elastic force limitation of the second spring, pushing the limit slider 21 to the left. At this time, the connection relationship between the second button shaft and the third button shaft and the elastic limit member 2 is reset synchronously or linked (that is, the clamping relationship is released and the corresponding water inlet of the water outlet channel is blocked), and the first button shaft continues to be pressed upward to make the limit member 212 of the limit slider 21 slide into the first limit groove of the first button shaft and form a clamping relationship, and the water inlet of the first water outlet channel 12 is also connected to the water inlet channel 11, thereby realizing one of the water outlet functions of the shower (such as swinging water).

[0041] When the first button axis and the second button axis (or the first button axis and the third button axis, or the second button axis and the third button axis) are pressed simultaneously, the upper protrusions 3112 of the first button axis and the second button axis pass through the corresponding first inclined guide surface 3114 and overcome the elastic force limitation of the second spring to push the limit slider 21 to the left. At this time, the connection relationship between the third button axis and the elastic limit member 2 is reset synchronously or linked, and the first button axis and the second button axis continue to be pressed upward, so that the two limit members 212 of the limit slider 21 respectively slide into the first limit groove of the first button axis and the second limit groove of the second button axis synchronously, and form a snap-fit ​​relationship respectively, and the water inlets of the first water outlet channel 12 and the second water outlet channel 13 are also connected to the water inlet channel 11 respectively, thereby realizing the two water outlet functions of the shower (such as swing water and shower water).

[0042] When the first button axis, the second button axis and the third button axis are pressed simultaneously, the upper protrusions 3112 of the three button axes 31 pass through the corresponding first inclined guide surfaces 3114 and overcome the elastic force limitation of the second spring, pushing the limit slider 21 to the left, and then the three button axes 31 continue to be pressed upward, so that the three limit members 212 of the limit slider 21 respectively slide into the limit grooves 3111 of the three button axes 31 synchronously and form a snap-fitting relationship respectively, and the water inlets of the first water outlet channel 12, the second water outlet channel 13 and the third water outlet channel 14 are also connected to the water inlet channel 11 respectively, thereby realizing the three water outlet functions of the shower (such as swing water, shower water and spray water).

[0043] Of course, in other implementations, the intersection angle between the motion trajectory of the elastic limiting member 2 and the motion trajectory of the elastic key shaft 3 may also be within a range of 0 to 90 degrees, and the preferred intersection angle is 90 degrees.

[0044] Furthermore, the upper and lower sides of the hole wall of the limiting hole 211 may also be arranged to be inclined and guided.

[0045] Further preferably, the side wall of the lower protrusion 3113 is provided with a second inclined guide surface 3115 facing the limiting member 212 , and the second inclined guide surface 3115 is the reset portion of the elastic button shaft 3 .

[0046] The distance between the sealed movable end 311 of the button shaft 31 and the upper inner wall of the shower handle housing 15 is greater than the sum of the thicknesses of the upper protrusion 3112 and the stopper 212 to ensure that the sealed movable end 311 of the button shaft 31 has enough movable space to achieve resetting.

[0047] After the three button shafts 31 are all snap-fitted and fixed with the elastic limit member 2 (i.e., the three button shafts 31 are all in the pressed state or the open position), the first button shaft (or the second button shaft, or one of the shower buttons such as the third button shaft) is selected and pressed hard to overcome the elastic force limitation of the second spring, and under the guidance of the second inclined guide surface 3115, the limit slider 21 is forced to slide along the second inclined guide surface 3115, thereby achieving the limit slider 21 sliding to the left again. At this time, the connection relationship (such as the snap-fitting relationship) between the second button shaft and the third button shaft (or the first button shaft and the third button shaft, or the first button shaft and the second button shaft) and the elastic limit member 2 is reset synchronously, thereby achieving re-reset or linkage reset.

[0048] Of course, when two of the key shafts 31 are in the open position and the other key shaft 31 is in the unpressed state or the blocked position, if one of the engaged key shafts 31 is pressed hard, the other engaged key shaft 31 will also be reset. This is the same principle as the resetting of the three key shafts 31 in the open position mentioned above, and will not be described in detail here.

[0049] More specifically, the outer peripheral surface of the button shaft 31 is provided with a first sealing ring 32 and a second sealing ring 33 set at an upper and lower interval, and the water inlet of the water outlet channel is located between the first sealing ring 32 and the second sealing ring 33. When the water inlet of the water outlet channel is blocked, the first sealing ring 32 abuts against the channel opening of the installation channel to form a sealing fit.

[0050] In this specific embodiment, a button 312 is disposed at one end of the elastic button shaft 3 away from the sealing movable end 311 , and the button 312 is located outside the shower handle body 1 . The button 312 protrudes outside the shower handle body 1 for easy use.

[0051] The first sealing ring 32 is located above the water inlet of the water outlet channel and outside the channel opening of the installation channel toward the elastic limiter 2 , and is fixedly installed on the outer peripheral surface of the sealing movable end 311 of the key shaft 31 .

[0052] When the button shaft 31 is in the blocking position (i.e. after resetting, the clamping relationship between the button shaft 31 and the limit slider 21 is released), the first sealing ring 32 abuts against the channel opening of the installation channel toward the elastic limit member 2 and forms a sealing fit, thereby blocking the water inlet of the water outlet channel, i.e. closing the corresponding water outlet channel.

[0053] Specifically, the cross-sectional shape of the second sealing ring 33 is Y-shaped. The second sealing ring 33 is located below the water inlet of the water outlet channel and close to the button 312 of the elastic button shaft 3 to prevent water in the installation channel from flowing out of the shower handle body 1, so as to ensure that the shower handle body 1 does not leak and ensure that the surface of the second sealing ring 33 is against the inner wall of the installation channel and can move with the button shaft 31.

[0054] Although the present invention has been specifically demonstrated and described in conjunction with the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes may be made to the present invention in form and detail without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined in the appended claims, all of which are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
