[0004] Because the mounting holes and water outlets are set to correspond, the side spray components of the above technology have a single water output mode, and users cannot switch the water output mode according to their needs, resulting in a poor user experience. Utility Model Content
[0005] This invention provides a water outlet adjustment component for a side spray assembly of a shower, which can effectively solve the above-mentioned problems.
[0006] This utility model is implemented as follows:
[0007] A water outlet regulating component for a shower side spray assembly includes a water outlet chamber seat covered by a faceplate on the end face of a fixed rod. The faceplate includes a panel and wing plates fixed on the two long sides of the panel. The interior of the water outlet chamber seat is divided into a first water channel and a second water channel, and a first water outlet communicating with the first water channel and a second water outlet communicating with the second water channel are arranged at intervals on the cover plate that covers the opening of the water outlet chamber seat.
[0008] The water inlet valve installed at the bottom of the fixed rod has an outlet pipe at the outlet end, and the bottom of the water outlet chamber seat has an inlet pipe that is sealed and slidably engaged with the outlet pipe. The wall of the inlet pipe is provided with a first inlet that communicates with the first water passage and a second inlet that communicates with the second water passage.
[0009] The drive outlet chamber seat slides up and down relative to the outlet pipe, which can control the side spray assembly of the shower to switch between the independent water outlet state and the independent water outlet state.
[0010] As a further improvement, a water flow gap is formed between the inlet pipe and the outlet pipe to allow water to flow through. Several water flow holes are arranged in a circular array around the outlet pipe to allow water from the outlet pipe to flow into the water flow gap. Sealing rings are embedded on both the upper and lower sides of the water flow holes on the outer side of the outlet pipe to press and seal against the inner wall of the inlet pipe.
[0011] As a further improvement, a baffle for separating the first water path and the second water path is fixedly connected inside the water outlet chamber seat. The water inlet pipe has a diversion section extending from the bottom into the water outlet chamber seat. The first water inlet and the second water inlet are arranged axially at intervals on the pipe wall of the diversion section.

[0030] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0031] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a water outlet regulating assembly for a side spray component of a shower includes a water outlet chamber seat 40 covered by a faceplate 20 on the end face of a fixing rod 10. The faceplate 20 includes a panel 21 and wing plates 22 fixed on the two long sides of the panel 21. The interior of the water outlet chamber seat 40 is divided into a first water channel 401 and a second water channel 402, which are independent of each other. A cover plate 41 covering the opening of the water outlet chamber seat 40 has a first water outlet 411 communicating with the first water channel 401 and a second water outlet 412 communicating with the second water channel 402 arranged at intervals. The bottom of the fixing rod 10 The inlet valve 30 installed in the unit has an outlet pipe 31 at its outlet end. The bottom of the outlet chamber seat 40 has an inlet pipe 42 that is sealed and slidably engaged with the outlet pipe 31. The inlet pipe 42 has a first inlet 421 that communicates with the first water passage 401 and a second inlet 422 that communicates with the second water passage 402. Driving the outlet chamber seat 40 to slide up and down relative to the outlet pipe 31 can control the side spray assembly 100 of the shower to switch between the independent water outlet state of the first outlet 411 and the independent water outlet state of the second outlet 412.
[0032] The structure of each component of this utility model will be described below.
[0033] like Figure 2 As shown, the first water outlet 411 is a single hole structure, and the second water outlet 412 is a structure of several evenly arranged small holes with a diameter smaller than that of the first water outlet 411. This design allows users to adjust the water outlet mode of the side spray component according to their personal preferences and usage needs.
[0034] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a water flow gap 424 is formed between the inlet pipe 42 and the outlet pipe 31 to allow water to flow through. The outlet pipe 31 has several water flow holes 311 arranged in a circular array around its periphery to allow water from the outlet pipe 31 to flow into the water flow gap 424. Sealing rings 32 are embedded on both the upper and lower sides of the outlet pipe 31 along the axial direction of the water flow holes 311, which are pressed and sealed against the inner wall of the inlet pipe 42. Reinforced sealing rings 33 are also embedded at the top and bottom of the outlet pipe 31 to press and seal against the inner wall of the inlet pipe 42. This enhances the sliding stability between the inlet pipe 42 and the outlet pipe 31, prevents water from leaking out between them during movement, and improves the overall waterproofness of the structure.
[0035] like Figure 5 As shown, when the outlet chamber seat 40 is slid upward, and the water inlet 311 on the outlet pipe 31 is connected to the first inlet 421 on the inlet pipe 42, the sealing rings 32 located on the upper and lower sides of the water inlet 311 press against the inner wall of the inlet pipe 42, blocking the second inlet 422. This allows the water input from the inlet valve 30 to enter only through the first inlet 421, flow through the first water passage 401, and exit from the first outlet 411. At this time, the first outlet 411 exits water independently. Conversely, if... Figure 6 As shown, the water chamber seat 40 slides down, the water outlet 311 connects with the second water inlet 422, the first water inlet 421 is blocked and sealed, and water is discharged from the second water outlet 412. At this time, the second water outlet 412 discharges water independently.
[0036] like Figure 3 As shown, a baffle 43 for separating the first water path 401 and the second water path 402 is fixedly connected inside the water outlet chamber seat 40. The water inlet pipe 42 has a diversion section 423 extending from the bottom into the water outlet chamber seat 40. The first water inlet 421 and the second water inlet 422 are arranged axially at intervals on the pipe wall of the diversion section 423. The baffle 43 has a blocking part 431 fixed on the pipe wall of the diversion section 423 between the first water inlet 421 and the second water inlet 422.
[0037] like Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a clamp 50 with an opening is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the cover 21. The clamp 50 has a sliding hole 51 that is slidably engaged with a guide post 44 fixed on the top of the water outlet seat 20. An operating handle 46 extending out of the cover 20 is installed on one long side of the water outlet seat 40.
[0038] The assembly of this utility model is described below.
[0039] A sealing ring 32 and a reinforcing sealing ring 33 are nested on the outlet pipe 31 of the inlet valve 30. The cover plate 41 is welded to the opening of the outlet chamber seat 40, and the inner side of the cover plate 41 is pressed and fixed to the outer edge of the baffle 43. Then, the clamp 50 is bolted to the inner wall of the panel 21, so that the guide post 44 of the outlet chamber seat 40 is in the sliding hole 51 enclosed by the clamp 50 and the fixing rod 10. The sealing ring 32 and the reinforcing sealing ring 33 are nested on the outlet pipe 31 respectively, and the inlet pipe 42 on the outlet chamber seat 40 is fitted to the outside of the outlet pipe 31, so that the sealing ring 32, the reinforcing sealing ring 33 and the inner wall of the inlet pipe 42 are pressed and sealed. Finally, the cover 20 is fixed on the fixing rod 10, thus completing the quick installation of this utility model.
[0040] This application has two different embodiments based on the different operating methods of sliding the actuation water outlet chamber seat of the operating handle.
[0041] Example 1:
[0042] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a control seat 45 is fixedly mounted on one long side of the water outlet chamber seat 20, and an operating handle 46 is fixedly mounted on the control box 45; a clearance hole 221 is provided on one of the wing plates 22 to allow the rod portion 461 of the operating handle 46 to slide and make way; through holes 201 are provided at intervals on the panel 21 for alignment with the first water outlet 411 or the second water outlet 412; a protruding edge 211 with a receiving groove 212 is fixedly provided on the panel 21 opposite to the control seat 45, and a pin 213 and a spacer for the pin 213 are provided in the receiving groove 212. The spring 214 extends out of the receiving groove 212. The control box has a relief groove 453 that makes way for the protruding edge 211. The bottom of the relief groove 453 has a first groove 451 and a second groove 452 for the insertion of the pin 213. When the water outlet seat 20 slides to the independent water outlet state of the first water outlet 411, the spring 214 actuates the pin 213 to form an insertion with the first groove 451. When it slides to the independent water outlet state of the second water outlet 412, the spring 214 actuates the pin 213 to form an insertion with the second groove 452.
[0043] It should be noted that the design of the pin 213 allows users to easily position the sliding position of the two water outlet levels. Furthermore, when the pin 213 is inserted into the first-level slot 451 or the second-level slot 452, it will emit a crisp "click" sound, which can indicate to the user that the desired level has been adjusted.
[0044] The following is combined Figures 1 to 7 This invention details the working principle of the present invention and how it is applied to switch between the independent water outlet mode of the first outlet and the independent water outlet mode of the second outlet.
[0045] When switching to the independent water outlet mode of the first outlet 411, slide the operating handle 46 upward. When the pin 213 is inserted into the first slot 451, the water flow hole 311 of the outlet pipe 31 is connected to the first inlet 421. The water flows into the first inlet 421 and the first water passage 401 from the water flow channel and completes independent water outlet from the first outlet 411.
[0046] When switching to the independent water outlet mode of the second outlet 412, slide the operating handle 46 down. When the pin 213 is inserted into the first slot 451, the water flow hole 311 of the outlet pipe 31 is connected to the second inlet 422. The water flows into the second inlet 422 and the second water passage 402 through the water flow channel and completes independent water outlet from the second outlet 412.
[0047] Example 2:
[0048] like Figure 8 As shown, the panel 21 has through holes 201 spaced apart for alignment with the first water outlet 411 or the second water outlet 412; one of the wing plates 22 has an insertion hole 222 for the rod portion 461 of the operating handle 46 to extend into; a hinge seat 11 for the rod portion 461 to rotate is fixedly mounted on the end face of the fixed rod 10; a gear 462 is fixedly mounted on the end of the rod portion 461; a rack 47 that meshes with the gear 462 is fixedly mounted on the side of the water outlet seat 40; the user can hold and rotate the operating handle 46 to synchronize the rotation of the gear 462 and the meshing of the rack 47 to control the upward and downward sliding of the water outlet seat 40, thereby completing the switching between the independent water outlet mode of the first water outlet and the independent water outlet mode of the second water outlet.
[0049] It should be noted that the pin structure described in Embodiment 1 can also be incorporated into the solution in Embodiment 2 to indicate to the user that the desired adjustment position has been reached.
[0050] The above embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications or changes without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent technical solutions should also fall within the scope of the present invention, as defined by the claims.
