Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of water outlet structures in sanitary ware, and particularly to a water outlet structure and a shower. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous progress of the sanitary ware industry and the increasing demand of consumers for the quality of life, the shower experience has become one of the important indicators to measure the quality of sanitary ware products. In order to enhance the comfort and enjoyment of users during the shower process, continuous technological innovations have emerged in the industry, aiming to design water flower forms that can produce diverse and significant massage effects.
[0003] However, traditional massage water flowers, such as pulsed water and columnar water, although they can provide a certain degree of massage effect, due to the limitations of their water outlet methods, they often can only act on local areas of the body intensively, with a small coverage area, thus reducing the comfort of the shower and affecting the overall experience of users. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] In order to improve the overall experience of users.
[0005] On the one hand, a water outlet structure provided by this application adopts the following technical solutions:
[0006] A water outlet structure includes a housing and a core. The housing is provided with a hollow channel and a rotating channel that communicate with each other. A guiding ring is provided at the bottom of the hollow channel. The guiding ring is radially provided with at least one diversion groove, and the diversion groove is arranged in a direction parallel to the tangent of the guiding ring and deviates from the center of the guiding ring; during installation, the core is installed in the hollow channel and abuts against the end face of the guiding ring, and there is a gap between the outer peripheral side of the core and the hollow channel. At this time, the hollow channel and the rotating channel communicate with each other through the diversion groove.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solutions, water flows down between the core and the hollow channel to the water storage channel for temporary storage, ensuring the continuity and stability of the water flow. The water flow flows into the rotating channel through the diversion groove and then flows out; due to the inclined arrangement of the diversion groove, when the water flows along the diversion groove into the rotating channel, the water flow can form a rotating trend, so that it can rotate and flow out along the inner wall of the rotating channel, so that when it comes out of the rotating channel, it is in a dispersed granular or spray shape, increasing the coverage area, achieving a better effect of massaging or relaxing the skin, improving the comfort of users, and thus improving the overall experience of users.
[0008] Optionally, the side of the rotating channel close to the hollow channel is cylindrical, the part of the rotating channel close to the outlet has a transition section with an inner diameter gradually decreasing along the water flow direction, and the diameter of the outlet of the rotating channel is the same as that of the outlet of the transition section.
[0009] Optionally, the rotating channel has a cylindrical structure.
[0010] Optionally, the inner diameter of the rotating channel gradually increases from the side close to the hollow channel to the side far from the hollow channel.
[0011] Optionally, at least two ribs are arranged at intervals on the outer peripheral side of the core, and a water passage is formed between two adjacent ribs. The core is in interference fit with the inner wall of the hollow channel through the ribs.
[0012] Optionally, the core is connected with a protruding part. The part of the core close to the protruding part has a guiding surface, and the guiding surface is an arc surface. In the installed state, the distance between one end of the arc surface close to the protruding part and the rotating channel is greater than the distance between one end of the arc surface far from the protruding part and the rotating channel.
[0013] On the other hand, a shower provided by the present application adopts the following technical solution:
[0014] A shower includes the above-mentioned water outlet structure.
[0015] Optionally, it further includes a shower rod. The shower rod is fixedly installed on the wall, or the shower rod is installed on the wall in a liftable manner, and several water outlet structures are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the shower rod.
[0016] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0017] 1. Water flows down between the core and the hollow channel and is temporarily stored in the water storage channel, ensuring the continuity and stability of the water flow. The water flow flows into the rotating channel along the diversion groove and then flows out. Since the diversion groove is inclined, when the water flows into the rotating channel along the diversion groove, the water flow can form a rotating trend, so that it can rotate and flow out along the inner wall of the rotating channel, so that when it comes out of the rotating channel, it is in a dispersed granular or spray shape, increasing the coverage area, achieving a better effect of massaging or relaxing the skin, improving the comfort of the user, and thus improving the overall experience of the user;
[0018] 2. The shower adopts the water outlet structure, which can increase the shower area and the coverage range, achieve a better effect of massaging or relaxing the skin, and improve the overall experience of the user. Description of the Drawings

[0027] The following further describes the present application in detail with reference to the attached Figure 1-7 drawings.
[0028] The embodiment of the present application discloses a water outlet structure. Refer to Figure 1 , the water outlet structure includes a housing 1 and a core 2. The housing 1 is provided with a mutually penetrating hollow channel 3 and a rotating channel 4. In this embodiment, the central axis of the rotating channel 4 and the central axis of the hollow channel 3 are on the same straight line. The inner diameter of the hollow channel 3 is larger than the inner diameter of the rotating channel 4. A guide ring 6 is provided at the bottom of the hollow channel 3. The bottom of the hollow channel 3 is the wall surface of the housing 1 corresponding to the hollow channel 3.
[0029] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the guide ring 6 is provided with at least one flow guiding groove 7 penetrating in the radial direction. In this embodiment, one flow guiding groove 7 is provided on each of the opposite sides of the guide ring 6, that is, a total of two flow guiding grooves 7 are provided. The water flow flows into the rotating channel 4 along the flow guiding groove 7 after flowing into the hollow channel 3. The flow guiding groove 7 is arranged in a direction parallel to the tangent of the guide ring 6 and deviates from the center of the guide ring 6. In this embodiment, the groove wall of the flow guiding groove 7 is inclined counterclockwise. That is, when the water flows along the groove wall into the rotating channel 4, the water rotates downward along the wall surface of the rotating channel 4 in a counterclockwise trend; in other embodiments, the groove wall of the guide groove can also be inclined clockwise to form a clockwise rotating water flow.
[0030] Refer toFigure 3 During installation, the core 2 is installed in the hollow channel 3 and abuts against the end face of the guide ring 6. There is a gap between the outer peripheral side of the core 2 and the hollow channel 3. Water flows into the hollow channel 3 outside the guide ring 6 along the gap between the core 2 and the hollow channel 3. After the water can be temporarily stored in the hollow channel 3 outside the guide ring 6, it flows into the rotating channel 4 through the diversion groove 7, so that the water flows out in a rotating manner along the wall surface of the rotating channel 4. Thus, when flowing out, the water is in a dispersed granular or spray shape, increasing the coverage area, achieving a better effect of massaging or relaxing the skin, improving the comfort of the user, and thus improving the overall experience of the user.
[0031] In some embodiments, the side of the rotating channel 4 close to the hollow channel 3 is cylindrical. The part of the rotating channel 4 close to the outlet has a transition section with an inner diameter gradually decreasing along the water flow direction. The diameter of the outlet of the rotating channel 4 is the same as that of the outlet of the transition section.
[0032] Refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments, the rotating channel 4 has a cylindrical structure.
[0033] Refer to Figure 5 In some embodiments, the inner diameter of the rotating channel 4 gradually increases from the side close to the hollow channel 3 to the side far from the hollow channel 3. The user can select different shapes of the rotating channel 4 according to their own needs.
[0034] Refer to Figure 6 In some embodiments, at least two convex strips 5 are spaced apart on the outer peripheral side of the core 2. In this embodiment, three convex strips 5 are integrally and evenly spaced along the outer peripheral side of the core 2. A water passage 8 is formed between adjacent two convex strips 5. The core 2 is in interference fit with the inner wall of the hollow channel 3 through the convex strips 5. Water flows into the hollow channel 3 outside the guide ring 6 along the water passage 8.
[0035] In some embodiments, the core 2 is integrally connected with a protrusion 9, and the protrusion 9 can facilitate the installation and disassembly of the core 2. The core 2 has a guiding surface 10, and the guiding surface 10 is an arc surface. In the installed state, the distance between the end of the arc surface close to the protrusion 9 and the rotating channel 4 is greater than the distance between the end of the arc surface far from the protrusion 9 and the rotating channel 4. And the end face of the convex strip 5 in this embodiment is also set as an arc surface. This enables the water to flow better along the arc surface into the water passage 8.
[0036] The implementation principle of the water outlet structure in the embodiments of the present application is as follows: Water flows down between the core 2 and the hollow channel 3 and is temporarily stored in the water storage channel 5, ensuring the continuity and stability of the water flow. The water flow flows into the rotating channel 4 along the diversion groove 7 and then flows out. Since the diversion groove 7 is inclined, when the water flows into the rotating channel 4 along the diversion groove 7, the water flow can form a rotating trend, so that it can rotate and flow out along the inner wall of the rotating channel 4, so that when it comes out of the rotating channel 4, it is in a dispersed granular or spray shape, increasing the coverage area, achieving a better effect of massaging or relaxing the skin, improving the comfort of the user, and thus improving the overall experience of the user.
[0037] The embodiments of the present application also disclose a shower. Refer to Figure 7 , the shower includes the above-mentioned water outlet structure. In some embodiments, the shower further includes a shower rod 11, and several water outlet structures are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the shower rod 11. In this embodiment, four water outlet structures are evenly arranged at intervals along the length direction of the shower rod 11. In other embodiments, different numbers can be set according to needs.
[0038] The implementation principle of a shower in the embodiments of the present application is as follows: The shower adopts the water outlet structure, so that the shower area can be increased, the coverage range can be increased, a better effect of massaging or relaxing the skin can be achieved, and the overall experience of the user can be improved.
[0039] The above are all the preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited accordingly. Therefore, all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
