Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bathroom technology, and more specifically, to a shower head with an easy-to-disassemble and assemble panel. Background Technology

[0002] Existing showerhead structures typically consist of a single, non-removable showerhead body and water outlet panel, or are difficult to disassemble and maintain quickly. However, even with existing separate structures, fastening or snap-fit ​​connections often fail to meet the requirements for quick installation and disassembly, and the structural connections themselves have numerous defects and shortcomings. Therefore, this application is hereby submitted. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a shower head with a panel that is easy to disassemble and assemble, so as to solve the above problems.

[0004] The present invention adopts the following solution:

[0005] This application provides a shower head with an easily detachable panel, including a shower head body and a water outlet panel. The water outlet panel is rotatably and securely mounted on the shower head body. The water outlet panel has a connected state where it is fastened to the shower head body to provide water flow, and a detached state where it can be separated from the shower head body. The water outlet panel can be operably rotated axially, corresponding to the ability to freely switch between the connected and detached states. The water outlet panel is provided with a locking member, and the shower head body is provided with an unlocking member. In the detached state, the water outlet panel can be moved axially to disengage from the shower head body by the relative unlocking of the locking member on the unlocking member.

[0006] As a further improvement, in the connected state, the water outlet panel is correspondingly locked to the shower head body by a locking member, and the locking member always allows the water outlet panel to rotate freely on the shower head body.

[0007] As a further improvement, the locking component includes a pressing cap, a movable part, and a resetting part; the movable part is linked to the pressing cap, and the resetting part is used to provide elastic force to keep the movable part and the pressing cap in a downwardly pressed position. The movable part has a limiting part at the end away from the pressing cap, and the limiting part is used to abut against the water distribution plate of the shower body to drive the water distribution plate to rotate relative to the shower body, thereby switching the water outlet mode.

[0008] As a further improvement, in the connected state, the locking member is correspondingly limited at its pressed position, at which time the limiting part is engaged in the locking groove of the water distribution plate, and the size of the locking groove is larger than the size of the limiting part, so as to allow the limiting part to have a relatively free rotation stroke in the locking groove.

[0009] As a further improvement, in the disassembled state, the locking component is aligned with the unlocking component, and the pressing cap is pulled upward to drive the movable part to move upward over the reset part to unlock, thereby limiting the locking component to its top position.

[0010] As a further improvement, the unlocking component includes an ejector and a spring. When the limiting part moves upward, it correspondingly triggers the ejector to press the spring inward to avoid unlocking, and the limiting part remains on the ejector as it resets outward.

[0011] As a further improvement, the unlocked limiting part is disengaged from the locking groove, allowing the water outlet panel to rotate independently, further disengaging from the shower head body and thus separating from each other.

[0012] The shower head body is provided with a mounting base, and the ejector and spring are respectively mounted on the mounting base.

[0013] As a further improvement, the water outlet panel is provided with a switching lever, and the movable member is movably inserted through the switching lever in the longitudinal direction, and the movable member is restricted in its movement path by a pressing cap.

[0014] As a further improvement, the shower head body is constructed as a handheld component or an overhead spray component.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the present invention can achieve the following technical effects:

[0016] This application discloses a showerhead with an easily detachable panel. The water outlet panel is connected to the showerhead body via a rotating fastener, allowing for easy connection and disassembly. In particular, the cooperation between the locking and unlocking components ensures the stability of the water outlet panel in the connected state. When rotated to the disassembly state, the unlocking component unlocks the locking component, allowing the water outlet panel to further detach from the showerhead body axially after rotation. Users only need to rotate the water outlet panel axially to complete the connection or separation. The operation process is smooth and natural, lowering the barrier to entry. Its innovative structure is also practical and can be widely used in shower equipment in homes, hotels, and other places. At the same time, it improves the overall user experience of the showerhead and meets the needs of modern consumers for intelligence and convenience. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this utility model provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed utility model, but merely to represent selected embodiments of this utility model.

[0026] Example

[0027] Combination Figures 1 to 6 This embodiment provides a shower head with an easily detachable panel, including a shower head body 1 and a water outlet panel 2. The water outlet panel 2 is rotatably and securely mounted on the shower head body 1. The water outlet panel 2 has a connected state where it is fastened to the shower head body 1 to provide water flow, and a detached state where it can be separated from the shower head body 1. The water outlet panel 2 can be operably rotated axially, freely switching between the connected and detached states. The water outlet panel 2 is provided with a locking member 3, and the shower head body 1 is provided with an unlocking member 4. In the detached state, the relative unlocking of the locking member 3 on the unlocking member 4 allows the water outlet panel 2 to move axially to disengage from the shower head body 1.

[0028] The showerhead described above features an easy-to-assemble and disassemble panel. The water outlet panel 2 is connected to the showerhead body 1 via a rotating fastener, allowing for easy assembly and disassembly. In particular, the cooperation between the locking component 3 and the unlocking component 4 ensures the stability of the water outlet panel 2 in the connected state. When rotated to the disassembled state, the unlocking component 4 unlocks the locking component 3, allowing the water outlet panel 2 to further detach from the showerhead body 1 axially after being rotated to the correct position. Users only need to rotate the water outlet panel 2 axially to complete the connection or separation. The operation process is smooth and natural, lowering the barrier to entry. Its innovative structure is also practical and can be widely used in shower equipment in homes, hotels, and other places. At the same time, it improves the overall user experience of the showerhead and meets the needs of modern consumers for intelligence and convenience.

[0029] In the connected state, the water outlet panel 2 is locked to the shower head body 1 via the locking member 3, and the locking member 3 always allows the water outlet panel 2 to rotate freely on the shower head body 1. It should be noted that even in the locked connected state, the locking member 3 still allows the water outlet panel 2 to rotate freely on the shower head body 1, making it convenient for users to adjust the water flow direction or angle according to their needs, providing a flexible user experience. Furthermore, the water outlet panel 2 can be easily installed and removed through simple rotation and unlocking operations, greatly improving the efficiency of use and maintenance, and is suitable for high-frequency use scenarios.

[0030] like Figures 3 to 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the locking component 3 includes a pressing cap 31, a movable member 32, and a resetting member 33. The movable member 32 is linked to the pressing cap 31, and the resetting member 33 provides elastic force to keep the movable member 32 and the pressing cap 31 in a downwardly pressed position. The movable member 32 has a limiting part 34 at the end away from the pressing cap 31. The limiting part 34 abuts against the water distribution plate 11 of the shower body 1 to drive the water distribution plate 11 to rotate relative to the shower body 1, thereby switching the water outlet mode. Obviously, the water distribution plates 11 on the shower body 1 are rotatably connected together, and the water path is switched by the rotation of the water distribution plate 11. This is prior art, so it will not be described in detail here.

[0031] In the connected state, the locking member 3 is correspondingly confined at its pressed position. At this time, the limiting part 34 is engaged in the locking groove 111 of the water distribution plate 11, and the size of the locking groove 111 is larger than the size of the limiting part 34, so as to allow the limiting part 34 to have a relatively free rotation stroke within the locking groove 111. Thus, by the limiting part 34 of the locking member 3 abutting against the left or right side wall of the groove 111 within the locking groove, a locking engagement is achieved between the water outlet panel 2 and the water distribution plate 11, enabling the switching of water outlets in the connected state.

[0032] Furthermore, in the disassembled state, the locking component 3 aligns with the unlocking component 4, and the pressing cap 31 is pulled upward to drive the movable component 32 to overcome the reset component 33 and move upward to unlock, thereby limiting the locking component 3 to its top position. Specifically, the water outlet panel 2 is rotated to the position to be unlocked, and the pressing cap 31 can be pulled upward to move the movable component 32 and its limiting part 34 upward to overcome the elasticity of the reset component 33. At the same time, under the unlocking action of the unlocking component 4, the limiting part 34 ensures that after the water outlet panel 2 and the water distribution plate 11 are unlocked, the corresponding operation of the water outlet panel 2 can achieve the quick separation of the cover.

[0033] like Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the unlocking component 4 includes an ejector 41 and a spring 42. When the limiting part 34 moves upward to reset, it correspondingly triggers the ejector 41 to press the spring 42 inward to avoid unlocking. The limiting part 34 remains on the ejector 41 as it resets outward, preventing the movable part 32 from moving downward into the locking groove 11 under the action of the resetting part 33. Thus, by freely switching between the pressed position and the lifted position after being pressed by elastic force, the limiting part 34 of the movable part 32 can quickly unhook and unlock upward along the ejector 41.

[0034] Furthermore, after unlocking, the limiting part 34 disengages from the locking groove 111, allowing the water outlet panel 2 to rotate independently, further disengaging from the shower head body. Preferably, after rotating at least 20° from the unlocked position, the water outlet panel 2 moves independently to its disengaged position, ensuring that the water outlet panel 2 moves to the point where it is unhooked from the shower head body 1. At this point, the water outlet panel 2 can be freely and independently detached from the shower head body 1.

[0035] In this embodiment, the shower head body 1 is provided with a mounting base 12, and the ejector 41 and the spring 42 are correspondingly mounted on the mounting base 12. Preferably, the mounting base 12 is detachably inserted into the inner wall of the shower head body 1, and holds the ejector 41 in a position exposed to the internal cavity.

[0036] In this embodiment, the water outlet panel 2 is provided with a switching lever 21, and the movable member 32 is movably inserted through the switching lever 21 in the longitudinal direction. The movable member 32 is restricted to its movement path by the pressing cap 31. The switching lever 21 allows for quick operation of the water outlet panel 2 to switch states, and the structural components of the locking member 3 are integrated within the switching lever 21 to ensure locking and unlocking.

[0037] like Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, in this embodiment, a spring pin 5 is provided on the inner end face of the shower head body 1, and a plurality of positioning grooves 6 are provided on the back of the water distribution plate 11 to cooperate with the spring pin 5. One positioning groove 6 and the spring pin 5 quickly define the connection state of the water outlet panel, and another positioning groove 6 and the spring pin 5 quickly define the disassembly state of the water outlet panel.

[0038] It should be mentioned that, in the connected state, the water distribution plate 11 selects one water outlet. A positioning groove 6 and a spring pin 5 quickly define the other water outlet of the water distribution plate 11. Clearly, the shower head body 1 has a water outlet 7, and the water outlet panel 2 has multiple water inlets 8. The rotation of the water distribution plate 11, driven by the water outlet panel 2, allows one of the water inlets 8 to connect with the water outlet 7, thus enabling multi-functional shower switching.

[0039] Preferably, the shower head body 1 is constructed as a handheld component or an overhead shower component. This shower head can be used in various scenarios such as overhead showers and handheld showers.

[0040] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the water outlet panel 2 rotates from the connected state to the disassembled state by an angle of 20° to 30°, preferably 21° for optimal effect. Further, when in the connected state, the water outlet panel 2 rotates clockwise by this angle to switch to the disassembled state, which is used for disassembly and maintenance. When in the connected state, the water outlet panel 2 rotates counterclockwise by the same angle to switch the water outlet function, thus satisfying diverse shower usage.

[0041] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions that fall within the scope of this utility model's concept are protected by this utility model.
