[0033] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings; it is obvious that the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments, and all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the present invention without making any creative work shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0034] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "provided with", "set / connected", "connected", etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "connection" can be a wall-mounted connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection. It can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection. It can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. It can be the internal connection of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0035] refer to Figures 1-15 This embodiment provides a water outlet device, including a mounting part 1, a first water outlet mechanism 2, a second water outlet mechanism 3 and a switching mechanism 4; the first water outlet mechanism 2 can be swingably connected to the mounting part 1, and the second water outlet mechanism 3 is fixedly connected to the mounting part 1; the first water outlet mechanism 2 is provided with a first water outlet passage 21, and the second water outlet mechanism 3 is provided with a second water outlet passage 31; the mounting part 1 is provided with a water inlet passage 11, and the switching mechanism 4 is used to connect or disconnect the water inlet passage 11 with the first water outlet passage 21 and / or the second water outlet passage 31; in this way, the entire water outlet device has three water outlet states, namely, water outlet from the first water outlet mechanism 2, water outlet from the second water outlet mechanism 3, and water outlet from the first water outlet mechanism 2 and the second water outlet mechanism 3 at the same time.

[0036] Furthermore, when the switching mechanism 4 connects the water inlet 11 to the first water outlet 21, the water inlet 11 and the first water outlet 21 are constantly connected within the swinging range of the first water outlet 2 relative to the mounting portion 1. Thus, when the first water outlet 2 is discharging water, even if the user swings the first water outlet 2 to adjust the water outlet coverage, the normal water flow of the first water outlet 2 will not be affected.

[0037] To achieve the switching function of the switching mechanism 4, the switching mechanism 4 includes a switching shaft 41 and a knob 42 for rotating the switching shaft 41. The mounting portion 1 includes a mounting seat 12, within which the switching shaft 41 is rotatably connected. The first water outlet mechanism 2 is swingably connected to the mounting seat 12. An inner seal 13 is provided between the switching shaft 41 and the mounting seat 12, and an outer seal 14 is provided between the first water outlet mechanism 2 and the mounting seat 12. When the switching mechanism 4 connects the water inlet 11 with the first water outlet 21, the water inlet 11 connects to the first water outlet 21 through the inner seal 13 and the water outlet of the outer seal 14. Furthermore, the water outlet 141 of the outer seal 14 is larger than the water inlet 211 of the first water outlet 21. This ensures that when the switching mechanism 4 connects the water inlet 11 with the first water outlet 21, the water inlet remains connected to the water outlet 141 of the outer seal 14 within the swing range of the first water outlet mechanism 2 relative to the mounting portion 1.

[0038] Similarly, a second inner sealing gasket 15 is provided between the switching shaft 41 and the mounting seat 12 . When the switching mechanism 4 connects the water inlet 11 with the first water outlet 21 , the water inlet 11 connects to the second water outlet 31 through the water outlet 151 of the second inner sealing gasket 15 .

[0039] In this embodiment, the switching shaft 41 is provided with a first flow opening 411 , a second flow opening 412 , and a third flow opening 413 ; during the rotation of the switching shaft 41 , the first flow opening 411 is constantly connected to the water inlet 11 . The switching shaft 41 has a first position, a second position and a third position relative to the mounting seat 12; when the switching shaft 41 is in the first position, the first flow port 411 is connected to the water inlet 11, the second flow port 412 is connected to the first water outlet 21, and the third flow port 413 is connected to the second water outlet 31 through the water port 151 of the second inner sealing gasket 15; when the switching shaft 41 is in the second position, the first flow port 411 is connected to the water inlet 11, the second flow port 412 is connected to the first water outlet 21, and the third flow port 413 is staggered with the second water outlet 31 by being staggered with the water port 151 of the second inner sealing gasket 15; when the switching shaft 41 is in the third position, the first flow port 411 is connected to the water inlet 11, the second flow port 412 is staggered with the first water outlet 21, and the third flow port 413 is connected to the second water outlet 31 through the water port 151 of the second inner sealing gasket 15.

[0040] When the switching shaft 41 is located at the first position, Figure 4 and attached Figure 13 , in the attached Figure 4In the state shown, the water outlet 141 of the outer sealing gasket 14 is connected to the first water outlet 21, and a portion of the water outlet 141 of the outer sealing gasket 14 is staggered from the first water outlet 21 along the swing direction of the first water outlet mechanism 2. When the first water outlet mechanism 2 swings, as shown in FIG. Figure 13 The portion of the water outlet 141 of the outer seal 14 that is offset from the first water outlet 21 becomes connected to the first water outlet 21 due to the swinging of the first water outlet mechanism 2, thereby ensuring that the first water outlet mechanism 2 is always in a normal water outlet state. The inner seal 13 is located between the switching shaft 41 and the mounting seat 12 and is not affected by the swinging of the first water outlet mechanism 2.

[0041] When the switching shaft 41 is located at the second position, Figure 7 and Figure 15 , in the attached Figure 7 In the state shown, the water outlet 141 of the outer sealing gasket 14 is connected to the first water outlet 21, and a portion of the water outlet 141 of the outer sealing gasket 14 is staggered from the first water outlet 21 along the swing direction of the first water outlet mechanism 2. When the first water outlet mechanism 2 swings, as shown in FIG. Figure 15 The portion of the water outlet 141 of the outer seal 14 that is offset from the first water outlet 21 becomes connected to the first water outlet 21 due to the swinging of the first water outlet mechanism 2, thereby ensuring that the first water outlet mechanism 2 is always in a normal water outlet state. The inner seal 13 is located between the switching shaft 41 and the mounting seat 12 and is not affected by the swinging of the first water outlet mechanism 2.

[0042] When the switching shaft 41 is in the third position, since the first water outlet mechanism 2 does not discharge water, the inner seal 13 and the outer seal 14 in the first water outlet mechanism 2 are not analyzed. In this embodiment, the inner seal 13 and the outer seal 14 are arranged on the same mounting seat 12.

[0043] In this embodiment, to enhance the swinging feel of the first water outlet mechanism 2, the first water outlet mechanism 2 is sleeved outside the mounting seat 12, and damping mechanisms 22 and 121 are provided between the inner wall of the first water outlet mechanism 2 and the outer wall of the mounting seat 12. The damping mechanisms 22 and 121 are protrusions provided along the swinging direction to increase the swinging friction between the first water outlet mechanism 2 and the mounting portion 1.

[0044] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any technical equivalent transformation made using the contents of the present invention specification falls within the protection scope of the present invention.
