Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sanitary ware technology, and in particular to a water outlet device. Background Technology

[0002] Existing bathroom products, in order to improve the user experience, integrate multiple water outlet structures, with valves switching between water paths. See CN104307652B, which discloses a "shower water path switching device." This device uses a button to drive the axial displacement of a central valve, causing the central valve's sealing element to selectively block the water passage, allowing the valve core's inlet passage to connect with the first outlet channel; or it can drive the central valve's sealing element to selectively block the first outlet channel, allowing the valve core's inlet passage to connect with the second outlet channel via a water passage. However, this structure can only achieve a limited number of function switches, especially when dealing with multiple water outlet angles, as it can only provide two or three specific angles of water flow. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a method for achieving water outlet at multiple angles by means of flow distribution through a valve.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the first technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a water outlet device, including a valve, wherein the valve includes an inlet channel, a valve core and two first outlet channels connected in sequence, and the valve core is used to distribute the relative flow rates of the two first outlet channels;

[0005] The first discharge chamber has two intersecting flow channels with different water outlet directions.

[0006] The two flow channels are respectively connected to the two first water outlet channels, and the water outlet angle of the first discharge chamber changes with the distribution of the valve core.

[0007] Furthermore, the valve core includes a shielding member, which is movably disposed in the opening of the first water outlet channel.

[0008] Furthermore, the shielding member can move horizontally or rotate relative to the openings of the two first water outlet channels.

[0009] Furthermore, the openings of the two first water outlet channels are horizontally distributed, and the blocking member moves along the distribution direction to completely block the opening of one of the first water outlet channels.

[0010] Alternatively, the openings of both of the first water outlet channels may be partially blocked simultaneously.

[0011] Furthermore, the openings of the two first water outlet channels are circumferentially distributed, and the blocking member moves along the distribution direction to completely block the opening of one of the first water outlet channels.

[0012] Alternatively, the openings of both of the first water outlet channels may be partially blocked simultaneously.

[0013] Furthermore, the first discharge chamber also includes a cavity, which is provided in the water outlet direction of the flow channel, and the flow channel and the cavity are arranged in a Y-shape.

[0014] Furthermore, the aforementioned water outlet device also includes a second discharge chamber, and the valve further includes a second water outlet channel, which is connected to the second discharge chamber.

[0015] Furthermore, the openings of the first water outlet channel and the opening of the second water outlet channel are horizontally distributed, and the blocking member moves along the distribution direction so that the openings of the first water outlet channel and the second water outlet channel alternately open or are fully open or fully closed.

[0016] Furthermore, the openings of the first water outlet channel and the opening of the second water outlet channel are circumferentially distributed, and the blocking member moves along the distribution direction so that the openings of the first water outlet channel and the second water outlet channel alternately open or are fully open or fully closed.

[0017] Furthermore, the aforementioned water outlet device also includes a first water outlet section and a second water outlet section disposed on the same water outlet panel; the first water outlet section surrounds the second water outlet section, the first water outlet section is provided with a first discharge chamber, the second water outlet section is provided with a second discharge chamber, and the second water outlet section is rotatably disposed on the water outlet panel.

[0018] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: Because the valve core can distribute the relative flow rates of the two first outlet channels, after water enters the valve from the inlet channel, two streams of fluid with different flow rates can flow out from the two first outlet channels. Simultaneously, because the first discharge chamber has two intersecting flow channels, and these two channels are respectively connected to the two first outlet channels of the valve, the two flow channels will converge the two streams of first fluid with different flow rates to form a second fluid, and the discharge trajectory of the second fluid will more closely resemble the original discharge trajectory of the stronger first fluid. Therefore, by operating the valve core to change the flow rate of the fluid in the first outlet channel, the discharge trajectory of the second fluid can be altered. Attached Figure Description

[0030] To explain in detail the technical content, objectives, and effects of this utility model, the following description is provided in conjunction with the embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0031] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the present invention provides a water outlet device, including a valve 1. The valve 1 includes an inlet channel 11, a valve core 12, and two first outlet channels 13 connected in sequence. The valve core 12 is used to distribute the relative flow rates of the two first outlet channels 13.

[0032] The first discharge chamber 2 has two intersecting flow channels 21 with different water outlet directions. The two flow channels 21 are respectively connected to two first water outlet channels 13. The water outlet angle of the first discharge chamber 2 changes with the distribution of the valve core 12.

[0033] Working principle: When two streams of first fluid 6 with different flow angles collide, if one stream of first fluid 6 is stronger than the other (i.e., has a larger flow rate), the discharge trajectory of the second fluid 7 formed after the collision will tend to follow the original discharge trajectory of the stronger stream of first fluid 6. Figure 1As shown, the thickness of the arrows representing the two converging first fluids 6 indicates the strength of the water flow, with the thicker first fluid 6 having a stronger flow than the thinner first fluid 6.

[0034] Utilizing the above principle, valve 1 is configured with an inlet channel 11, a valve core 12, and two first outlet channels 13 connected in sequence. This allows water to enter valve 1 through the inlet channel 11, resulting in two streams of fluid with different flow rates flowing out through the two first outlet channels 13. Simultaneously, the first discharge chamber 2 is configured with two intersecting flow channels 21, each connected to one of the two first outlet channels 13. Therefore, by operating the valve core 12 to change the flow rate of the fluid in the first outlet channel 13, the discharge trajectory of the second fluid 7 can be altered.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the valve core 12 further includes a shield 121, which is movably disposed in the opening of the first water outlet channel 13.

[0036] As described above, the degree of shielding of the opening of the first water outlet channel 13 is allocated by the movable shielding member 121. The opening of the first water outlet channel 13 can be either the inlet end or the outlet end of the first water outlet channel 13.

[0037] Preferably, the shielding member 121 shields the openings of the two first water outlet channels 13 by horizontal or rotational movement.

[0038] For the specific physical form of the horizontally movable shielding component 121, please refer to [reference needed]. Figure 4 As shown, the openings of the two first water outlet channels 13 are horizontally distributed. The blocking member 121 moves along the distribution direction to completely block the opening of one first water outlet channel 13, or simultaneously partially block the openings of both first water outlet channels 13. A flow-through opening for water passage is provided on the blocking member 121. When the flow-through opening of the blocking member 121 moves to the opening of the first water outlet channel 13, the water flow can pass through the flow-through opening normally. The flow rate is determined by the communication area between the flow-through opening and the opening of the first water outlet channel 13; the larger the communication area, the larger the water flow.

[0039] For the specific physical form of the rotating and movable shielding component 121, please refer to [reference needed]. Figure 5As shown, the openings of the two first water outlet channels 13 are circumferentially distributed. The blocking member 121 moves along the distribution direction to completely block the opening of one of the first water outlet channels 13, or simultaneously partially block the openings of both first water outlet channels 13. A flow-through port for water passage is provided on the blocking member 121. When the flow-through port of the blocking member 121 rotates to the opening of the first water outlet channel 13, water can flow normally through the flow-through port. The flow rate is determined by the communication area between the flow-through port and the opening of the first water outlet channel 13; the larger the communication area, the larger the flow rate.

[0040] Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the first discharge chamber 2 further includes a cavity 22, which is provided in the water outlet direction of the flow channel 21. The flow channel 21 and the cavity 22 are arranged in a Y-shape.

[0041] As described above, when the two first fluids 6 collide, some of the fluid will splash out in the form of fluid particles, mainly scattering irregularly towards both sides of the water flow direction. To address this, a cavity 22 is provided in the outlet direction of the flow channel 21. The cavity 22 constrains the scattered fluid particles, causing them to re-aggregate and thus ensuring the shape of the second fluid 7.

[0042] It is worth noting that, such as Figure 6 As shown, when the flow channel 21 introduces two streams of fluid into the cavity 22 from above the short side, and the long side wall of the cavity 22 constrains the dispersed fluid particles, the dispersed fluid particles splash over a short distance, allowing the converged fluid to be discharged in the form of a columnar water droplet. Simultaneously, by distributing the water flow intensity in at least one flow channel 21, the discharge trajectory of the columnar water droplet can be varied. This variation in the discharge trajectory can be represented by a change in the angle of the entire water column relative to the axis of the discharge port.

[0043] like Figure 7 As shown, when the flow channel 21 introduces two streams of fluid into the cavity 22 from above the long side, and the short side wall of the cavity 22 constrains the dispersed fluid particles, the dispersed fluid particles splash a long distance, allowing the converged fluid to be discharged in the form of sheet-like water droplets. Simultaneously, by distributing the water flow intensity in at least one flow channel 21, the discharge trajectory of the sheet-like water droplets can be varied. This variation in the discharge trajectory can be represented by an angular change in the overall water sheet relative to the axis of the discharge port.

[0044] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, the above-mentioned water outlet device further includes a second discharge chamber 3, and the valve 1 also includes a second water outlet channel 14, which is connected to the second discharge chamber 3.

[0045] As can be seen from the above description, by adding a second discharge chamber 3 and conveying fluid to the second water outlet channel 14 through valve 1, other forms of water discharge can be achieved.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 4 As shown, the openings of the two first water outlet channels 13 and the second water outlet channel 14 are horizontally distributed, and the blocking member 121 moves along the distribution direction so that the openings of the first water outlet channels 13 and the second water outlet channels 14 alternately open, or are fully open, or are fully closed. The opening of the second water outlet channel 14 can be either the inlet end or the outlet end of the second water outlet channel 14.

[0047] As described above, when the through-hole of the shield 121 moves to the opening of the second water outlet channel 14, the water can flow normally through the through-hole. The flow rate is determined by the connection area between the through-hole and the opening of the second water outlet channel 14; the larger the connection area, the larger the flow rate.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 5 As shown, the openings of the two first water outlet channels 13 and the openings of the second water outlet channel 14 are circumferentially distributed, and the blocking member 121 moves along the distribution direction so that the openings of the first water outlet channel 13 and the second water outlet channel 14 are alternately opened or fully opened or fully closed.

[0049] As described above, when the flow port of the shield 121 rotates to the opening of the second water outlet channel 14, the water can flow normally through the flow port. The flow rate is determined by the connection area between the flow port and the opening of the second water outlet channel 14; the larger the connection area, the larger the flow rate.

[0050] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, the above-mentioned water outlet device further includes a first water outlet section 4 and a second water outlet section 5 disposed on the same water outlet panel; the first water outlet section 4 surrounds the second water outlet section 5, the first water outlet section 4 is provided with a first discharge chamber 2, the second water outlet section 5 is provided with a second discharge chamber 3, and the second water outlet section 5 is rotatably disposed on the water outlet panel.

[0051] As can be seen from the above description, by flipping the second water outlet 5 onto the water outlet panel, the water hole in the second discharge chamber 3 that was originally used for water inlet becomes a water hole for water outlet, and the water hole that was originally used for water outlet becomes a water hole for water inlet, which helps to clear the second discharge chamber 3.

[0052] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent modifications made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
