[0002] Traditional aerators typically include a filter, a diverter, a rectifier, and an inner tank. The diverter divides the filtered water into streams, which are then rectified by the rectifier before being output. This results in a single water output mode. To meet the different needs of different people or at different times for the water output function of water devices, aerators with switchable water output effects have been widely used.

[0003] For example, patent CN215406329U discloses a multifunctional aerator, including a shell, a filter, and a main body; the shell is axially through; the main body is fixed inside the shell and has several inlet holes, several outlet hole groups, and a mixing chamber, the mixing chamber being connected to the inlet holes and outlet hole groups; the filter is installed at the inlet hole and has a first descaling hole, the main body has a second descaling hole, the second descaling hole being connected to the first descaling hole; it also includes a rod and a water-separating plate, the rod being movably inserted through the second descaling hole and having a sealing part to block or open the first descaling hole, the water-separating plate being located inside the mixing chamber and sleeved outside the rod, the water-separating plate also having several water-passing hole groups and being operable to rotate so that some water-passing hole groups are connected to or staggered with the corresponding outlet hole groups.

[0004] The problem with the above technology is that, in order to ensure the stability of the connection between the rod and the main body, there are many mating relationships between the rod and the main body. Among them, the water-proof plate is sleeved on the rod, and the rod and the water-proof plate are mated by limiting fit. The installation requires high precision in the fit between the two.
