The water outlet head 38 is fixedly connected to the water passing member 35, so that the water passing port 6 is connected to the opening 48 and then to the first water outlet 3. The water passing member 35 also forms a water passing portion 16. In this embodiment, the water passing portion 16 includes three columns (corresponding to the number of water passing ports 7) extending along the first direction 17. A water passage 45 is provided in the column so that water can flow from the water passage 45 to the water passing ports 7 and then flow into the water passing cavity 4. The water passing member 35 is also provided with a guide slope 8 at each water passing port 7 so that water can enter the water passing cavity 4 from each water passing port 7 along the tangent direction of the annular water passing cavity 4.

[0050] like Figure 2 , 4As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 , the front of the base 40 is generally cylindrical, and the side wall of the cylinder is provided with a plurality of raised semi-cylindrical guide portions 44 along the circumferential direction. The second water outlet 21 is formed at the guide portion 44, and the connector 39 is adapted to be fixed to the cylinder on the front of the base 40 by snap-fitting. Figure 2 As shown, the middle part of the back side of the base 40 is also cylindrical, and two layers of annular first cavity 46 and second cavity 47 are sequentially arranged on the outside thereof, and the second water outlet 21 is connected to the second cavity 47.

The first abutting surface 11, the second abutting surface 12 and the third abutting surface 13 are all perpendicular to the tangent direction of the rotation direction of the rotating member 37. In this embodiment, as Figure 5As shown, the bottom surface of the rotating member 37 (the side facing the water outlet 7) is provided with a sawtooth segment to form a first pressure-bearing chamber 9 and a second pressure-bearing chamber 10, and the shape of the sawtooth segment can set the inclination and position of the first push surface 11 and the second push surface 12, so that the first push surface 11 and the second push surface 12 are perpendicular to the tangent direction of the rotating direction of the rotating member 37, and the third push surface 13 is located at the tail of the rotating member 37, and its inclination can be directly set. The rotating member 37 is installed in the water outlet 4 and is configured such that among the first push surface 11, the second push surface 12 and the third push surface 13, at least one push surface is located in front of the water outlet 7 along the water flow direction so that the water flowing in from the water outlet 7 pushes against the push surface, and the push surface and the water outlet 7 are not connected to the water outlet 6 (see the following working principle section for details).

[0052] like Figure 3-4 As shown, the push-to-switch mechanism 28 is located on the back of the water outlet 15, and is suitable for being pushed to switch the water outlet or open and close the water outlet. The push-to-switch mechanism 28 includes a switch member 26 and a push-to-pop assembly 29. The switch member 26 extends along the first direction 17, one end of which is inserted into the valve cavity 20, and the other end extends out of the valve cavity 20 so that it is suitable for being pushed by the push portion 19 to slide along the first direction 17 and then switch the water outlet or open and close the water outlet. In this embodiment, the switch member 26 is used to switch the valve cavity 20 to connect to the first cavity 46 or the second cavity 47, so that the water inlet 2 is correspondingly connected to the first water outlet 3 or the second water outlet 21. Figure 3 As shown, when the switching member 26 is located at the second position extending further out of the valve cavity 20, the water inlet 2 is connected to the valve cavity 20 and the second cavity 47, and then connected to the second water outlet 21.

The push-and-pop mechanism can adopt a common ballpoint pen push-and-pop mechanism, which in this embodiment includes a push rod 30, a rotor 31, a first elastic member 32 and a plug 33 with two ends passing through. The middle part of the base 40 is also provided with a channel 22 extending along the first direction 17, and the channel 22 is located on the side of the valve cavity 20 close to the water outlet 15. The end of the switching member 26 extending out of the valve cavity 20 is located in the channel 22, and the end of the channel 22 away from the switching member 26 is also provided with a support portion 23 formed by a connecting member 39. The plug 33 is sealed and installed in the channel 22, and the support portion 23 is suitable for limiting the plug 33 from sliding away from the switching member 26 along the first direction 17. ; The rotor 31 is installed in the plug 33, and one end of the push rod 30 presses against the rotor 31 and the other end extends out of the channel 22; the first elastic member 32 is installed in the valve cavity 20 and one end presses against the base 41 along the first direction 17, and the other end presses against one end of the switching member 26 extending into the valve cavity 20; the rotor 31 is suitable for being pushed by the push rod 30 to rotate between the first rotation position and the second rotation position through the inclined surface so that the switching member 26 slides correspondingly between the first position and the second position, and when the rotor 31 is in the first rotation position or the second rotation position, it is also suitable for being acted upon by the elastic force of the first elastic member 32 to press against the plug 33 so as to be limited to the current position.

[0053] like Figure 1-4 As shown in Figures 7 and 8, the operating member 27 is provided with an operating portion 18 and a pushing portion 19. The operating portion 18 surrounds the water outlet 15, and the second water outlet 21 surrounds the operating portion 18. The pushing portion 19 is located at the back of the water outlet 15 and is suitable for pushing against one end of the top rod 30 in the pressing switching mechanism 28 extending out of the channel 22. The water passing portion 16 surrounds the pushing portion 19 and slides with the operating member 27. The operating portion 18 is also suitable for being pushed so that the pushing portion 19 slides along the first direction 17 so as to push against the switching member 26 of the pressing switching mechanism 28, so that the switching member 26 slides along the first direction 17 so that the water inlet 2 is connected to the first water outlet 3 or the second water outlet 21. In this embodiment, the operating member 27 is roughly in the shape of a cylindrical groove, and its side wall forms the operating portion 18, and the bottom wall forms the pushing portion 19. The water outlet head 38 and the water passing member 36 are both located in the operating member 27, and the water passing portion 16 forming the water passage 45 passes through the bottom wall of the operating member 27 and is inserted into the first cavity 46. The outer periphery of the operating member 27 is further provided with guide grooves 43 having the same number as the guide portions 44 . The guide portions 44 are embedded in the guide grooves 43 , so that the operating member 27 can stably slide along the first direction 17 .

[0054] like Figure 2 As shown, the sealing gasket 24 is installed in the channel 22 and is located between the support portion 23 and the plug 33. The push rod 30 passes through the sealing gasket 24 and extends out of the channel 22 to abut the push portion 19. The sealing gasket 24 also cooperates with the push rod 30 in a sealing manner.

[0055] like Figure 2 As shown, the second elastic member 25 is located between the operating member 27 and the valve chamber 20 , with one end of the second elastic member 25 abutting against the operating member 27 along the first direction 17 , and the other end abutting against the connecting member 39 of the body 1 .

[0056] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the shell 42 is sleeved outside the body 1 and is sealed to the body 1, and is suitable for connecting the external water flow to allow the external water flow to flow into the water inlet 2. The shape of the shell 42 can be set according to actual needs. The shell 42 in this embodiment is provided with two water channels 49 on both sides for water flow to pass through and an air channel 50 on the top for balancing air pressure and water pressure.

[0057] The principle of switching water outlet of the water outlet device in this embodiment is as follows:

[0058] like Figure 3 As shown, the switching member 26 is located at the second position and is stabilized at the second position under the elastic force of the first elastic member 32, the water inlet 2 is connected to the valve cavity 20, the valve cavity 20 is connected to the second cavity 47 and thus to the second water outlet 21, and water is discharged from the second water outlet 21. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, after the operating portion 18 of the operating member 27 is pressed along the first direction 17, the pushing portion 19 pushes against the push rod 30, and the push rod 30 pushes against the rotor 31, thereby pushing the switching member 26 to slide from the second position further extending out of the valve cavity 20 to the first position further extending into the valve cavity 20. In the above process, since the water-passing portion 16 extends along the first direction 17 and passes through the operating member 27, thereby slidingly cooperating with the operating member 27, it will not hinder the displacement of the operating member 27, and the rotor 31 rotates from the second rotation position to the first rotation position during the process of being pushed by the push rod 30 and stabilizes to the current position under the elastic force of the first elastic member 32 (the principle is the same as the common press-and-pop mechanism), so that the switching member 26 can be maintained in the first position. At this time, the water path is as shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown, the water inlet 2 is connected to the valve cavity 20, the valve cavity 20 is connected to the first cavity 46 to connect to the water channel 45 and then to the water cavity 4, and then to the first water outlet 3. In the above process, due to the elasticity of the second elastic member 25, the operating member 27 can always be reset after pressing the operating member 27 to switch the water outlet.

[0059] When the water inlet 2 is connected to the first water outlet 3, water flows into the annular water flow chamber 4 through the first cavity 46 and the water passage 45 of the water flow portion 16. The rotating member 37 rotates along the water flow chamber 4 under the action of the water flow, thereby periodically blocking the water flow port 7, and then realizing pulsed water discharge from the first water outlet 3. The working process is as follows.

[0060] like Figure 8-9As shown, along the rotation direction of the rotating member 37, when the rotating member 37 is located between two adjacent water ports 7, it blocks the water port 6 between the two adjacent water ports 7 so that the water port 6 cannot communicate with the water port 7, so that the water flow from the previous water port 7 pushes against the third push surface 13. At this time, the third push surface 13 is under pressure. Due to the presence of the guide slope 8, the water pressure on the third push surface 13 is greater than the water pressure on the head of the rotating member 37, so the rotating member 37 can be driven to rotate. When the first pressure chamber 9 is connected to the next water port 7, the previous water port 7 is allowed to communicate with the water port 6 between the two adjacent water ports 7, that is, when the first push surface 11 is under pressure, the third push surface 13 is allowed to lose pressure.

[0061] like Figure 10-11 As shown, along the rotation direction of the rotating member 37, when the rotating member 37 is located between two adjacent water passages 6, the water passage 7 located between the two adjacent water passages 6 is connected to the first pressure chamber 9 and / or the second pressure chamber 10 (in this embodiment, when the rotating member 37 blocks the water passage 7, it simultaneously connects the first pressure chamber 9 and the second pressure chamber 10, so that the first abutting surface 11 and the second abutting surface 12 are both pressurized); Fig.12 As shown, when the water passage 7 between two adjacent water passages 6 is connected to the second pressure chamber 10, the first pressure chamber 9 is allowed to be connected to the next water passage 6 of the two adjacent water passages 6, that is, the first abutting surface 11 is allowed to lose pressure when the second abutting surface 12 is pressurized.

[0062] like Fig.13 As shown, along the rotation direction of the rotating member 37, when the water port 7 between two adjacent water ports 6 is connected through the water cavity 4 so that the water flow in from the water port 7 pushes against the third pushing surface 13, the first pressure-bearing cavity 9 and the second pressure-bearing cavity 10 are allowed to simultaneously communicate with the next water port 6 of the two adjacent water ports 6, that is, when the third pushing surface 13 is under pressure, the first pushing surface 11 and the second pushing surface 12 are allowed to lose pressure at the same time. (In this embodiment, the rotating member 37 is configured so that the water port 7 between two adjacent water ports 6 is connected through the water cavity 4 so that the water flow in from the water port 7 can push against the third pushing surface 13, the first pressure-bearing cavity 9 is allowed to communicate with the next water port 6 of the two adjacent water ports 6, that is, when both the second pushing surface 12 and the third pushing surface 13 are under pressure, the first pushing surface 11 is allowed to lose pressure).

[0063] Therefore, the aforementioned at least one push surface located in front of the water outlet 7 should be understood as at least one push surface located in front of part of the water outlet 7 so as to be subjected to water pressure, rather than being located in front of the entire water outlet 7. It should be noted that, taking this embodiment as an example, when the shapes of the rotating member 37 and the water passage chamber 4 have been determined, and the number and positions of the water outlets 7 and the water passages 6 have been determined, the above-mentioned pulse water discharge working process can be achieved by adjusting the length of the rotating member 37, the opening size of the water outlet 7 and the water passage 6, the positions of the first pressure chamber 9 and the second pressure chamber 10, and the positions of the first push surface 11, the second push surface 12 and the third push surface 13, which can be achieved by those skilled in the art without creative labor. In other embodiments, those skilled in the art also provide guidance based on the present invention, that is, the rotating member 37 is installed in the water passage chamber 4 and configured such that, among the first abutting surface 11, the second abutting surface 12 and the third abutting surface 13, at least one abutting surface is located in front of the water passage 7 along the water flow direction so that the water flowing in from the water passage 7 pushes against the abutting surface, and the water passage 6 is not connected between the abutting surface and the water passage 7, thereby obtaining other embodiments. For example, the water passage 6 is located on the inner side wall of the water passage chamber 4 in this embodiment, and the water passage 6 may also be located on the outer side wall of the water passage chamber 4 in other embodiments.

[0064] Specifically in this embodiment, the center of the water passage cavity 4 is taken as a reference point, and the extension length is represented in the form of an angle.

[0065] like Figure 6 , 8 As shown, in this embodiment, the angle of the opening of the water passage 6 is about 22°, the arc angle of the arc segment 34 is about 98°, and the angle of the opening of the water passage 7 excluding the diversion slope 8 is about 30°, which is located in the middle of the corresponding arc segment 34, that is, the angles between the two ends of the water passage 7 excluding the diversion slope 8 and the two ends of the corresponding arc segment 34 are both about 34° (98°=34°+30°+34°), which is hereinafter referred to as the first angle. The angle of the diversion slope 8 is about 14° (the angle of the water passage 7 as a whole is 14°+30°). The arc angle corresponding to the rotating member 37 is approximately 68°, and the arc angles corresponding to the first pressure chamber 9 and the second pressure chamber 10 are both approximately 26.5° and are arranged at equal intervals on the rotating member 37, that is, starting from the head of the rotating member 37, it reaches the first push surface 11 after passing through 5°, and after passing through the first pressure chamber 9 of approximately 26.5°, it reaches the second push surface 12 after passing through 5°, and then after passing through the second pressure chamber 10 of approximately 26.5°, it reaches the third push surface 13 after passing through 5° (68°=5°+26.5°+5°+26.5°+5°).

[0066] Among them, Figure 8 and 11As shown, the arc angle corresponding to the rotating member 37 is greater than or equal to the included angle between the water opening 6 and the water outlet 7, so that the water opening 6 and the water opening 7 can be blocked (68°≥22° and ≥44° in this embodiment); the angle corresponding to the rotating member 37 is also less than or equal to the angle corresponding to the arc segment 34 (68°≤98° in this embodiment), so that when the rotating member 37 is located between two adjacent water openings 6, it will not hinder the water flow of the two water openings 6.

[0067] like Fig. 9 As shown, the angle between the first abutting surface 11 and the third abutting surface is greater than the sum of the angle of the water passage 6 plus the first angle (63°>22°+34° in this embodiment), so that when the first pressure chamber 9 in two adjacent water passages 7 is connected to the next water passage 7, the upper water passage 7 is allowed to be connected to the water passage 6 between the two adjacent water passages 7.

[0068] like Figure 10-11 As shown, the angle corresponding to the spacing between the first pressure chamber 9 and the second pressure chamber 10 is smaller than the angle of the water outlet 7 (5°<44° in this embodiment), so that when the rotating member 37 is located between two adjacent water outlets 6 and blocks the water outlet 7, the water outlet 7 located between the two adjacent water outlets 6 connects the first pressure chamber 9 and the second pressure chamber 10 at the same time.

[0069] like Fig.12 As shown, the sum of the angle corresponding to the water outlet 7 after removing the guide slope 8 plus the first angle is greater than the angle between the first push surface 11 and the second push surface 12 (30°+34°>26.5°+5° in this embodiment), so that when the water outlet 7 between two adjacent water outlets 6 is connected to the second pressure-bearing chamber 10, the first pressure-bearing chamber 9 is allowed to connect to the next water outlet 6 of the two adjacent water outlets 6. In this embodiment, the sum of the angle corresponding to the water outlet 7 after removing the guide slope 8 plus the first angle is greater than the angle between the first push surface 11 and the third push surface 13 (30°+34°>26.5°+5°+26.5°+5°), so that when the water outlet 7 between two adjacent water outlets 6 is connected to the water outlet 4 so that the water flow flowing in from the water outlet 7 can be pushed against the third push surface 13, the first pressure-bearing chamber 9 is allowed to connect to the next water outlet 6 of the two adjacent water outlets 6.

[0070] like Fig.13As shown, the sum of the angle corresponding to the water outlet 7 after removing the guide slope 8 plus the first angle is greater than the angle between the second pushing surface 12 and the third pushing surface 13 (30°+34°>26.5°+5° in this embodiment), so that the water outlet 7 between two adjacent water outlets 6 is connected to the water passage cavity 4 so that the water flow flowing in from the water outlet 7 pushes against the third pushing surface 13, and the first pressure chamber 9 and the second pressure chamber 10 are allowed to be connected to the next water outlet 6 of the two adjacent water outlets 6 at the same time.

[0071] The radial width of the rotating member 37 along the water passage chamber 4 is substantially the same as the radial width of the water passage chamber 4 . The radial widths of the water passage port 7 , the guide slope 8 and the arc segment 34 along the water passage chamber 4 are substantially the same and are approximately half of the radial width of the water passage chamber 4 .

[0072] In addition, the above is an implementation method of switching the water outlet. For the case of opening and closing the water outlet, there is no need to set the second water outlet 21. The use of the switching member 26 and the valve chamber 20 to open and close the water outlet is well known to those skilled in the art and will not be repeated.

[0073] In this embodiment, the push-switch mechanism 28 is located at the back of the water outlet 15 and is suitable for being pushed to switch the water outlet or open and close the water outlet, and the operating member 27 is provided with the operating portion 18 and the pushing portion 19, the pushing portion 19 is located at the back of the water outlet 15 and is suitable for pushing the push-switch mechanism 28, the water flow portion 16 is located at the back of the water outlet 15 and extends along the first direction 17, the water flow portion 16 surrounds the pushing portion 19 and slides with the operating member 27, so when the operating portion 18 is pushed, the pushing portion 19 can slide along the first direction 17 to push the push-switch mechanism 28, and the water outlet 15 will not be affected. Since the operating portion 18 surrounds the water outlet 15, the operating portion 18 can be set at the water outlet 15. Compared with the prior art, the installation position of the water outlet device provided by the technical solution is not limited by the operating portion 18, so it can be installed at various positions of the side wall of the bathtub, such as the middle of the side wall of the bathtub, so as to meet the needs of users.

[0074] The press-to-switch mechanism 28 includes a switching member 26, which extends along the first direction 17. The main body 1 is also provided with a valve cavity 20. The front side of the water outlet 15 is also provided with a first water outlet 3. The water inlet 2 and the first water outlet 3 are suitable for connecting to the valve cavity 20. One end of the switching member 26 is inserted into the valve cavity 20 and the other end extends out of the valve cavity 20. Therefore, the water outlet can be switched or opened and closed by pushing the end of the switching member 26 extending out of the valve cavity 20.

[0075] By arranging the second water outlet 21 on the body 1, the second water outlet 21 is suitable for connecting to the valve chamber 20, so that the position of the switching member 26 can be used to make the water inlet 2 connect to the first water outlet 3 or the second water outlet 21, so as to switch the water outflow. By making the second water outlet 21 surround the operating portion 18, its water outflow direction is the same as the water outflow direction of the first water outlet 3, so the installation position of the water outlet device will not be restricted by the second water outlet 21, and the sliding of the operating member 27 will not affect the water outflow of the second water outlet 21. The switching member 26 can slide between the first position and the second position to switch the water outflow, and by arranging the press-and-pop assembly 29, the switching member 26 can be stabilized in the first position and the second position.

[0076] The push-and-pop assembly 29 is realized by setting a push rod 30, a rotor 31, a first elastic member 32 and a plug 33 with two ends passing through, which is relatively simple. By setting a sealing gasket 24, the sealing gasket 24 is installed in the channel 22 and is located between the support portion 23 and the plug 33. The push rod 30 passes through the sealing gasket 24 and extends out of the channel 22 to push against the push portion 19. The sealing gasket 24 also seals with the push rod 30 to prevent water from flowing from the water outlet 15 into the push-and-pop assembly 29 and causing adverse effects thereon. By setting a second elastic member 25, the second elastic member 25 is located between the operating member 27 and the valve cavity 20, and one end of the second elastic member 25 along the first direction 17 pushes against the operating member 27 and the other end pushes against the body 1, so that the operating member 18 can always be reset after the operating member 18 is pushed to switch or open and close the water outlet. By sleeved the shell 42 outside the main body 1 and sealingly connected to the main body 1, the shell 42 can be connected to the external water flow to allow the external water flow to flow into the water inlet 2. Therefore, by setting the shape of the shell 42, it is possible to protect the main body 1 while also facilitating the connection of the external water flow.

[0077] This embodiment further provides a bathtub, which includes a basin body and a water outlet device in this embodiment, and the water outlet device is installed on the basin body.

[0078] The description of the above specification and embodiments is used to explain the protection scope of the utility model, but does not constitute a limitation on the protection scope of the utility model. Through the enlightenment of the utility model or the above embodiments, ordinary technicians in this field can obtain modifications, equivalent replacements or other improvements to the embodiments of the utility model or part of the technical features thereof through logical analysis, reasoning or limited experiments, which should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
