Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a water outlet structure and a water outlet panel. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the water jets produced by columnar water jets are conical or cylindrical, and the cross-section of the water outlet is circular. If the height of the water outlet cavity connected to the outlet is too high, the excessive height of the outlet cavity can cause turbulent water flow, leading to water jet jitter and burrs, thus affecting the water jet effect. This problem often occurs in individual outlets, while other outlets produce water with excellent jet quality. The combination of these issues affects the overall visual appeal. Furthermore, the development process often requires significant time and manual verification using molds, greatly increasing the cost of product development and design. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a water outlet structure and a water outlet panel.
[0004] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0005] A water outlet structure includes a water outlet, wherein the inner peripheral wall of the water outlet protrudes inward to form ribs, and the length of the ribs is set along the axis of the water outlet.
[0006] In this embodiment of the invention, the length of the rib is not less than the axial depth of the water outlet. The rib can restore the turbulent water flow to a smooth state, thereby eliminating water splashing and burrs.
[0007] In this embodiment of the invention, the ribs are distributed in a ring on the inner circumference of the water outlet.
[0008] In this embodiment of the invention, a water outlet channel can be formed between two connected ribs, and the width of the water outlet channel can gradually increase from the axis of the water outlet hole to the outer periphery.
[0009] In this embodiment of the invention, the outer surface of the rib is arc-shaped.
[0010] In this embodiment of the invention, four ribs are evenly distributed inside the water outlet, making the cross-section of the water outlet cross-shaped.
[0011] In this embodiment of the invention, the outer diameter of the water outlet gradually decreases according to the direction of water flow.
[0012] This utility model also discloses another technical feature:
[0013] A water outlet panel includes the aforementioned water outlet hole structure.
[0014] In this embodiment of the utility model, a body is also included, on which a plurality of water outlet holes are arranged in a ring.
[0015] This utility model discloses a water outlet structure and a water outlet panel, which has the following beneficial effects: If the height of the water passage cavity connected to the water outlet is low, water splashes are more likely to cause water flow turbulence. Therefore, the design often requires that the height of the water passage cavity not be too low, resulting in a taller and thicker product, making it difficult to achieve a thin and light design. This water outlet design eliminates water splash turbulence and burrs, while allowing the water passage cavity to be lowered, maintaining a good appearance of water splashes while keeping the entire product compact.

[0020] 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 a part of the embodiments of this utility model, not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model 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 represents selected embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0021] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
[0022] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.
[0023] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.
[0024] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can include direct contact between the first and second features, or contact between the first and second features through another feature between them. Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature includes the first feature directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.
[0025] Referring to the accompanying drawings, a water outlet structure includes a water outlet 10, wherein the inner peripheral wall of the water outlet protrudes inward to form a rib 20, and the length of the rib is set along the axis A of the water outlet, that is, the rib extends along the water passage after protruding.
[0026] Preferably, the length L of the ribs is not less than the axial depth of the outlet hole. That is, the ribs cover the entire inner circumferential wall of the outlet hole, so that the water flow passing through the outlet hole can cooperate with the ribs. In the original columnar channel, the inner circumferential wall is flat, and the resistance to turbulent water flow is small, so the channel cannot play a rectification role. However, after adding ribs, the non-axial flow of water will be adjusted by the ribs, which can restore the turbulent water flow to a smooth state, thereby eliminating water splashing and burrs.
[0027] Furthermore, the ribs are distributed in a ring around the inner circumference of the water outlet. A water outlet channel 11 can be formed between two connected ribs, and the width of the water outlet channel gradually increases from the axis of the water outlet to the outer circumference, that is, the width of the water outlet channel gradually increases from the center of the water outlet to the outer circumference. In one embodiment, the outer surface of the ribs is arc-shaped.
[0028] In one use, four ribs are evenly distributed inside the water outlet, so that the cross-section of the water outlet is cross-shaped.
[0029] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the water outlet gradually decreases along the direction of water flow, meaning that the water outlet is a constriction hole.
[0030] This utility model also discloses another technical feature:
[0031] A water outlet panel includes the aforementioned water outlet hole structure. It also includes a body 30, on which a plurality of water outlet holes are arranged in a ring.
[0032] More specifically, this invention features a ribbed inner wall for the water outlet, which allows the originally turbulent water flow to return to a smooth state under the action of these ribs, thereby eliminating water splashes and burrs. When the height of the water passage cavity connected to the water inlet of the water outlet is low, the impact force of the water flow in the water outlet cavity will increase, causing the water flow in the water outlet cavity to become turbulent. The ribs can eliminate the water pressure of the water flow, thereby achieving a smooth water flow.
[0033] The foregoing description illustrates and describes preferred embodiments of the present invention. As previously stated, it should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the forms disclosed herein and should not be construed as excluding other embodiments. It can be used in various other combinations, modifications, and environments, and can be altered within the scope of the inventive concept described herein through the foregoing teachings or related technical or knowledge. Any modifications and variations made by those skilled in the art that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention should be within the protection scope of the appended claims.
