DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the utility model for which protection is claimed, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present invention.

[0028] Example

[0029] Combine Figures 1 to 5 This embodiment provides a showerhead, comprising a lower housing 1, a cover plate 2, and side plates 3, which are arranged separately. The lower housing 1 has at least a top opening 4 and a side opening 5. The cover plate 2 is used to cover the top opening 4 of the lower housing 1, and the side plates 3 are used to connect to the side opening 5 of the lower housing 1. The side plates 3 are detachably mounted on the lower housing 1 to form a lateral limit for the cover plate 2.

[0030] In the prior art, the housing's mounting opening is located on one side of a hanging plate fastened to the wall, similar to the side opening 5 described in this application. However, with only one opening, assembly space is limited, making flexible alignment difficult. Furthermore, molding the entire housing becomes more complex and demolding becomes more difficult, significantly increasing mold costs.

[0031] In this regard, the storage shower of the present application is provided with a top opening 4 and a side opening 5 on the lower shell 1, so that during installation, flexible operation can be performed from the side space and the top space without blocking the line of sight, making it convenient to directly view the internal structure of the shell, thereby reducing the difficulty of assembly and alignment, effectively simplifying the installation process, and improving installation accuracy.

[0032] The cover plate 2 covers the top opening 4, and the side panel 3 is detachably connected to the side opening 5 of the lower shell 1. The detachable connection of the side panel 3 after the cover plate 2 is covered makes it unnecessary to disassemble the entire product during maintenance. The cover plate 2 can be removed by opening the side panel 3, thereby realizing rapid replacement and maintenance of the internal valve body, which significantly improves the convenience of operation. The cover plate 2 covers the top opening 4, and the side panel 3 blocks the side opening 5, thereby avoiding affecting the appearance of the product due to the exposure of the installation opening. At the same time, the assembly between the split shell and multiple plates is more flexible.

[0033] The side panel 3 is docked with the lateral opening 5 of the lower shell 1 to form a lateral limit for the cover 2, preventing the cover 2 from moving or falling off due to external force during use, thereby enhancing the assembly stability and safety of the component, and eliminating the need for additional fasteners to connect the cover 2 to the lower shell 1, greatly simplifying the installation and connection of the cover 2.

[0034] The split structural parts are easy to form and manufacture, which reduces the difficulty of demoulding the complex structure of the shell. At the same time, the mold line of the lower shell 1 is formed at the end of the side opening 5. There is no mold line on the front appearance, which avoids the need for shell polishing and saves costs.

[0035] like Figures 3 to 5As shown, in this embodiment, the top opening 4 and the side opening 5 are interpenetrating. The two interpenetrating openings can expose the top, side, and connected areas, making the installation path of the cover plate 2 more open, avoiding the difficulty of operation caused by space limitations, and completing the snap-in assembly by simply sliding the cover plate 2 horizontally, thereby improving assembly efficiency.

[0036] The cover plate 2 is provided with a horizontally extending first plug-in portion 6. The cover plate 2 slides horizontally sideways onto the top opening 4, allowing the first plug-in portion 6 to engage with the side wall of the lower housing 1. On one hand, sliding the cover plate 2 sideways onto the top opening 4 eliminates the need for vertical pressing or other complex operations, making it particularly suitable for installation in confined environments. On the other hand, the first plug-in portion 6 of the cover plate 2 securely engages with the side wall of the lower housing 1, providing multi-point support and preventing the cover plate 2 from loosening or falling off during use, ensuring overall stability and forming a multi-fixed connection.

[0037] Furthermore, the side panels 3 and cover panel 2 are pluggably connected and locked to the lower housing 1. Preferably, the side panels 3 and cover panel 2 are male-female plug-in compatible, enhancing the tight connection between the two. The side panels 3 are specifically attached to the lower housing 1 using fasteners such as bolts, magnetic connections, or reusable adhesives.

[0038] In particular, the cover plate 2 is further provided with a second plug-in portion 7, located opposite the first plug-in portion 6 on a different side. This second plug-in portion 7 is correspondingly engaged with the side panel 3. The first plug-in portion 6 of the cover plate 2 engages with the side wall of the lower housing 1, while the second plug-in portion 7 engages with the side panel 3, creating a double-sided support fixation method. This enhances the assembly security of the cover plate 2 and prevents lateral movement or disengagement. Furthermore, the opposing position of the first plug-in portion 6 and the second plug-in portion 7 ensures that the cover plate 2 automatically aligns during installation, reducing assembly errors and improving production and assembly efficiency.

[0039] The cover plate 2 includes an outer panel 8 and an inner top plate 9, and the outer panel 8 and the inner top plate 9 are stacked and attached to each other, and the first plug-in portion 6 and the second plug-in portion 7 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the inner top plate 9. Preferably, the outer panel 8 is configured as a transparent glass plate, the inner top plate 9 is configured as a lightweight plastic plate, and the first plug-in portion 6 and the second plug-in portion 7 are integrally formed on the edge side of the inner top plate 9. Obviously, the high hardness of glass and the toughness of plastic are utilized to form a composite structure of the cover plate 2, which effectively improves the overall rigidity and impact resistance of the cover plate 2. In addition, the plug-in portion on the inner top plate 9 can be easily connected and disassembled without affecting the integrity of the outer panel 8, making it convenient to disassemble and replace damaged parts.

[0040] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, the shower unit further includes a faucet valve body 10. The faucet valve body 10 is installed in the lower housing 1 along the lateral opening 5. A corresponding locking bracket 11 is provided on the lower housing 1 for locking the faucet valve body 10 in place. The cover plate 2 is positioned over the locking bracket 11, allowing the shower unit to be concealed.

[0041] In the above, the cover plate 2 completely covers the mounting structure of the locking bracket 11 and the faucet valve body 10, hiding the internal structural details, making the overall appearance more concise and neat, and meeting the high requirements of users for the aesthetics of modern bathroom products. The cover plate 2 is perfectly combined with the shell, avoiding the overall decorative effect affected by the exposed mounting components in traditional showers, making the product style more unified.

[0042] In particular, the faucet valve body 10 is side-mounted through the side opening 5, avoiding the difficulty of installation from the top or bottom narrow space in the existing design, improving assembly efficiency and assembly accuracy. In addition, the installation path is optimized by locking the bracket 11. The faucet valve body 10 can be firmly fixed in the lower shell 1 by simply aligning and locking it, greatly shortening the assembly time.

[0043] The lower housing 1 is provided with a mechanical knob 12 on the side opposite the side panel 3, which is adapted to engage with the faucet valve body 10, as well as multiple control switches 13 for controlling different water outputs. Preferably, the control switches 13 may be, but are not limited to, push-button switches or rotary switches. It should be noted that the knobs and switches for the faucet valve body 10 are conventional designs and will not be described in detail here.

[0044] The side panel 3 is provided with a cold water inlet pipe 14 and a hot water inlet pipe 15, which are connected to the faucet valve body 10. The mechanical knob 12 is used to control the temperature of the cold and hot water. Obviously, a valve core within the faucet valve body 10 is controlled by the mechanical knob 12, which is used to further output the cold and hot water entering the valve core into mixed water.

[0045] The cover plate 2 is equipped with an upper adapter 16 that connects to the upper water outlet, and the bottom of the lower housing 1 is equipped with a lower adapter 17 that connects to the lower water outlet. The control switch 13 is used to control the upper and lower water outlets respectively. Specifically, the lower adapter 17 is used to output shower water, spray gun water, and other lower water outlets. The upper adapter 16 is used to output overhead water.

[0046] The above are only preferred implementations of the present invention. The protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions under the concept of the present invention fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
