The integral seal 3 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the second pipeline 4, and the second pipeline 4 is sealed with the housing 1 and the first pipeline 2 through the integral seal 3.
[0027] In this application, by providing the integral seal 3 on the second pipeline 4, a sealed connection between the second pipeline 4 and the first pipeline 2 and the housing 1 is achieved, effectively preventing water leakage, and improving the sealing performance and reliability of the shower main body. At the same time, compared with traditional multiple sealing rings, the setting of the integral seal 3 simplifies the internal structure of the shower main body, reduces the number of parts, lowers the cost, and improves the assembly efficiency. In a specific embodiment, the second pipeline 4 can be a water diverter for assisting the shower main body to switch the water flow between different water outlet ends.
[0028] In some embodiments of this application, a positioning portion 31 is convexly provided on the inner wall of the integral seal 3, and the positioning portion 31 is located at the edge of the integral seal 3 facing the first pipeline 2, and the positioning portion 31 overlaps the end of the first end 41 of the second pipeline 4. This positioning portion 31 can effectively improve the fitting tightness between the integral seal 3 and the second pipeline 4, ensure that the integral seal 3 can be accurately docked and installed, and at the same time prevent the integral seal 3 from being displaced during use.
[0029] In some embodiments of this application, a first step portion 211 is formed on the inner wall of the first water outlet end 21 near its port, and the side of the positioning portion 31 away from the second pipeline 4 abuts against the first step portion 211, thereby improving the fitting stability between the integral seal 3 and the second pipeline 4 and the first pipeline 2, reducing the moving wear caused by vibration or fluid pressure change, helping to extend the service life of the integral seal 3, and reducing the frequency of its maintenance and replacement.
[0030] In some embodiments of this application, the positioning portion 31 is annularly arranged on the inner wall of the integral seal 3, thereby forming a new sealing connection between the end of the first water outlet end 21 and the first step portion 211, further improving the sealing effect between the second pipeline 4 and the first pipeline 2 and reducing the possibility of water leakage.
[0031] Refer to Figure 5, in some embodiments of the present application, a first sealing portion 32 is protrudingly provided in a ring shape on the outer peripheral wall of the integrated seal 3, and the first sealing portion 32 abuts against the inner wall of the first water outlet end 21 to achieve a sealed connection between the second pipeline 4 and the first pipeline 2. The first sealing portion 32 closely abuts against the outer wall of the second pipeline 4 and the inner wall of the first water outlet end 21 respectively, so as to form extrusion on the integrated seal 3, thereby ensuring the sealed connection between the second pipeline 4 and the first pipeline 2, and reducing the risk of water seepage in the first pipeline 2.
[0032] In some embodiments of the present application, a second sealing portion 33 is protrudingly provided in a ring shape on the outer peripheral wall of the integrated seal 3, and the second sealing portion 33 abuts against the wall of the mounting opening 11 to achieve a sealed connection between the second pipeline 4 and the housing 1. The second sealing portion 33 abuts against the outer wall of the second pipeline 4 and the wall of the mounting opening 11 respectively, and forms extrusion on the integrated seal 3, so as to achieve a sealed connection between the second pipeline 4 and the housing 1, further enhancing the sealing performance of the overall structure, preventing external moisture from seeping into the housing, and effectively preventing the corrosion of the housing.
[0033] In some embodiments of the present application, the first sealing portion 32 and the second sealing portion 33 are sequentially arranged along one end of the integrated seal 3 close to the first pipeline 2 towards the end away from the first pipeline 2, and there is a gap 30 between the first sealing portion 32 and the second sealing portion 33. The setting of the gap 30 can disperse stress, reduce stress concentration of the integrated seal 3 under pressure, and improve the durability of the integrated seal 3.
[0034] In some embodiments of the present application, the mounting opening 11 and the port of the first water outlet end 21 are coaxially arranged, and the diameter of the mounting opening 11 is larger than the diameter of the port of the first water outlet end 21; the protruding distance of the second sealing portion 33 relative to the outer peripheral wall of the integrated seal 3 is L1, and the protruding distance of the first sealing portion 32 relative to the outer peripheral wall of the integrated seal 3 is L2, where L1 is greater than L2. The mounting opening 11 being larger than the first water outlet end 21 and L1 being greater than L2 helps the second pipeline 4 to be sleeved with the integrated seal 3 and then inserted into the first water outlet end 21 through the mounting opening 11, improving the production and installation efficiency.
