[0038] The user drives the valve core 300 by operating the button 400 to switch the output of the first water outlet 221 or the second water outlet 222, thereby obtaining multi-point water spraying through the multiple water spray holes 101 in the water spray area 110, or obtaining waterfall spraying or atomizing water spraying effects through the waterfall spray trough 102 or multiple atomizing nozzles 103 in the functional area 120. The side spray shower has multiple functions and is easy to switch and use, meeting user needs and improving product competitiveness.

[0039] In some embodiments of the present invention, the valve core 300 is composed of a valve seat 310 and a valve stem 320. The valve seat 310 is fixed to the water outlet seat 220, while the valve stem 320 is connected to the operating button 400. The middle portion of the operating button 400 is rotatably connected to the water outlet panel 100, with one end located outside the water outlet panel 100 and the other end connected to the valve stem 320. This design allows the user to control the internal valve core 300 through the operating button 400 on the outside of the water outlet panel 100, achieving precise control of water flow.

[0040] In some embodiments of the present invention, a horizontal cylindrical inner cavity 223 is provided within the water outlet seat 220, and the first water outlet hole 221 and the second water outlet hole 222 are respectively connected to the two ends of the cylindrical inner cavity 223. A water-sealing ring 321 is provided at the inner end of the valve stem 320. When the operating button 400 drives the valve stem 320 to move, the water-sealing ring 321 moves accordingly to close the first water outlet hole 221 or the second water outlet hole 222, thereby achieving precise and easy-to-use control and switching of water flow. Alternatively, the valve stem 320 can be rotated to achieve the closing of the first water outlet hole 221 or the second water outlet hole 222, and the operating button 400 drives the valve stem 320 to rotate.

[0041] In the embodiment of the present invention, the specific structure of the side spray shower is further described in detail.

[0042] It can be understood that the water outlet panel 100 or the water inlet cover 200 is designed with a mounting groove 104, and the two opposite side walls of the mounting groove 104 are provided with a rotating shaft 105. The above design allows the operating button 400 to be inserted into the mounting groove 104, and the operating button 400 is provided with a clamping portion 410 that cooperates with the rotating shaft 105. The cooperation between the clamping portion 410 and the rotating shaft 105 not only ensures the stable installation of the operating button 400, but also through the relative rotation between the rotating shaft 105 and the clamping portion 410, the operating button 400 can be flexibly rotated, thereby driving the internal valve core 300 to move, thereby realizing control of the water flow.

[0043] In some embodiments of the present invention, a decorative cap 420 is attached to one end of the operating button 400, which not only enhances the showerhead's appearance but also increases user comfort during operation.
