Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of bathroom products, in particular to a shower faucet cavity device. Background Art

[0002] In daily life, when people take a shower, they often use a shower faucet with hot and cold water regulation to adjust the water temperature so as to obtain a comfortable temperature for showering. At present, existing shower faucets are mostly made of metal materials such as copper, iron or alloy, and the processing cost of this material is high.

[0003] Chinese utility model patent No. CN221462994U discloses an integrated shower faucet cavity device, which is made of plastic and is integrated, including a water inlet hole A and a water inlet cavity A connected thereto, a water inlet hole B and a water inlet cavity B connected thereto, a water outlet cavity and a water outlet hole A connected thereto, the water inlet cavity A and the water inlet cavity B are respectively connected to a valve core cavity, the valve core cavity is used to place the valve core, the valve core cavity is arranged at the edge of the cavity device and an opening is provided at the edge, and also includes a mixing cavity connected to the valve core cavity, the mixing cavity is used to accommodate the water mixed by the valve core in the valve core cavity The flow system also includes a generator chamber and a connecting chamber. The generator chamber is used to house a hydroelectric generator. One end of the connecting chamber connects to the mixing chamber, and the other end connects to a side wall of the generator chamber. The water outlet chamber connects to the other side wall of the generator chamber to allow water to circulate. One side wall of the generator chamber is located at the edge of the chamber device on the same side as the valve core chamber and has an opening at the edge. The water inlet chamber A, water inlet chamber B, mixing chamber, and water outlet chamber are all configured as parallel tubular cavities. The connecting chamber is arranged at an angle, with the extension of one end of the straight line containing the connecting chamber intersecting the opening of the generator chamber at the edge of the chamber device. The specification states: "To reduce design costs and production difficulties, the components other than the connecting chamber can also be molded in one go through a mold injection molding process, with the connecting chamber being formed by secondary processing using processing equipment through the opening at the edge of the generator chamber. This requires that the extension of one end of the straight line containing the connecting chamber A intersect the opening of the generator chamber at the edge of the chamber device. This allows the machining center to penetrate the generator chamber to connect with the mixing chamber to form the connecting chamber."

[0004] It can be seen that when the connecting cavity is an inclined cavity, the secondary processing of the connecting cavity must require that the generator cavity be provided with an opening at the edge of the cavity device and that the extension line of the connecting cavity intersect with the opening of the generator cavity. Only in this way can the processing equipment penetrate into the shower faucet to open the connection between the mixing cavity and the generator cavity to form a connecting cavity.

[0005] This design has specific requirements for the relative positions of the mixing chamber and the generator chamber, the edge opening of the generator chamber, etc., and limits the angle and length of the connecting chamber, thereby restricting the setting of the internal structure of the shower faucet cavity device, which is not conducive to the production, processing and upgrading of the product.

[0039] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0040] A shower faucet cavity device, such as Figures 1-13 As shown, it includes a body 1 made of plastic material. The plastic material facilitates large-scale production of parts through mold injection molding. The body 1 is the main part of the shower faucet cavity device. The main cavity for the water flow and the structure for connecting other parts to the outside are all arranged on the body 1. The body 1 includes a water inlet hole A11 and a water inlet cavity A111 connected thereto, a water inlet hole B12 and a water inlet cavity B121 connected thereto, a water outlet cavity 14 and a water outlet hole A141 connected thereto, the water inlet cavity A111 and the water inlet cavity B121 are respectively connected to the valve core cavity 13, and the valve core cavity 13 is used to place the valve core to The device adjusts the flow rate and flow of hot and cold water flowing into the water inlet chamber A111 and the water inlet chamber B121, and also includes an insert A2. The interior of the insert A2 is hollow and can allow water to flow through. The insert A2 includes a mixing chamber 21 that can accommodate the water flow adjusted by the valve core chamber 13 and a generator chamber 22 for placing a hydroelectric generator. The generator chamber 22 can be equipped with a generator for water flow power generation to provide electricity for external lights or display screens. The material of the insert A2 can be copper, alloy, aluminum or other metal materials or plastic materials. Preferably, the insert A2 is made of plastic material and is integrally formed by injection molding. The mixing chamber 21 of the insert A2 can be set to different shapes according to factors such as the relative position and size of the valve core chamber 13 and the generator chamber 22, such as Figure 3 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, when the generator chamber 22 and the valve core chamber 13 are both located on the right side of the shower faucet cavity assembly, and the distance between the generator chamber 22 and the right edge of the shower faucet cavity assembly is greater than the distance between the valve core chamber 13 and the right edge of the shower faucet cavity assembly, the mixing chamber 21 is configured as a bend. During processing, insert A2 is pre-placed in the mold for producing the body 1. Using an injection molding machine, the plastic pellets are injection-molded to form insert A2 embedded in the body 1 and sealed with the cavity of the body 1. Water flowing out of the generator chamber 22 flows through the connected water outlet chamber 14 and out of the water outlet hole A141.

[0041] like Figure 11-13As shown, the water flowing out of the water outlet A141 can be connected to the upward shower rod to facilitate the installation of the shower head. The main body 1 is also provided with a diversion cavity 15, which is connected to the water outlet A141 to divert the water flowing out of the water outlet A141 to the upper surface of the main body 1. The upper end of the diversion cavity 15 can be connected to the shower rod.

[0042] In order to allow the water flowing out of the water outlet cavity 14 to have more possibilities for flowing out in different directions, the main body 1 is provided with a water outlet D144, which is connected to the water outlet cavity 14, and further includes an insert B3, which is provided with a U-shaped hollow diversion cavity 31. The insert B3, like the insert A2, can also be made of metal or plastic. It is also pre-placed in the mold for producing the main body 1 and is formed by injection molding of the main body 1 to be embedded in the main body 1. Moreover, one end of the diversion cavity 31 is sealed and connected to the water outlet D144, and the other end penetrates the surface of the main body 1 to form a water outlet E311. Preferably, as shown in FIG. Figure 9 、 Figure 11 and Figure 13 As shown, the water outlet E311 is opened toward the lower side and the diversion cavity 31 extends the water outlet E311 to the front position of the shower faucet cavity.

[0043] In order to increase the number of water outlets, water outlet holes B142 and water outlet holes C143 can be set on the main body 1. The water outlet holes B142 and water outlet holes C143 are directly connected to the water outlet cavity 14 and are both set on the lower surface of the main body 1, and can be connected to external devices such as shower heads.

[0044] In order to further reduce the production difficulty of the main body 1 and improve production efficiency, the water inlet chamber A111, the water inlet chamber B121 and the water outlet chamber 14 are all set to be tubular cavities parallel to each other. This arrangement facilitates core pulling and demolding during the production process, and is also beneficial to the optimization of water flow permeability and flow rate during user use.

[0045] Preferably, the center lines of the water inlet chamber A111, the water inlet chamber B121 and the valve core chamber 13 are all in the same vertical plane, and the center lines of the valve core chamber 13, the mixing chamber 21, the generator chamber 22 and the water outlet chamber 14 are all in the same horizontal plane. This setting can make full use of the length, width and thickness of the main body 1 to achieve the optimal setting of the arrangement of the water flow chamber position.

[0046] The valve core chamber 13 is externally connected to a control switch 4 for hand holding. The control switch 4 can control the valve core chamber 13 to adjust the flow rate and flow rate flowing in from the water inlet chamber A111 and the water inlet chamber B121, thereby achieving a comfortable shower water temperature.

[0047] The generator cavity 22 is externally connected to a plugging member 5 for sealing to prevent water leakage from the generator cavity 22 .

[0048] In order to conveniently control the size of the water flow of the water outlet holes A141, B142, C143 and D144, a mounting groove 16 for mounting a control switch is provided on the front side of the body 1. Figure 1 As shown, the mounting groove 16 is concave inward to form a notch, and the control switch can be a key or button, and four corresponding water outlets can be provided respectively.

[0049] When the shower faucet cavity adopts different design schemes, resulting in changes in the relative position and size of the valve core cavity 13 and the generator cavity 22, the mixing cavity 21 of the insert A2 is correspondingly set to a different shape to achieve a sealed connection between the two. This change only requires adjusting the injection mold of the insert A2. Since the insert A2 is small in size and simple in structure, the cost of modification is low and the application scenarios are wide, which greatly improves the design space of the shower faucet cavity and thus enhances the market competitiveness of the product.

[0050] The present invention encompasses any substitutions, modifications, equivalent methods, and solutions that are not within the spirit and scope of the present invention. To provide a thorough understanding of the present invention, specific details are described in detail in the preferred embodiments of the present invention above, but those skilled in the art can fully understand the present invention without these detailed descriptions.

[0051] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as within the scope of protection of the present invention.
