Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water outlet device technology, and in particular to a novel aerator. Background Technology
[0002] Existing aerators generally have an insert inside the main body, and a central column is set on the insert. Water flow impacts the central column, which makes the water particles fuller, atomizes more thoroughly, and has a higher air content in the water droplets, resulting in better water saving.
[0003] For example, patent CN202224079U discloses an air-water mixing aerator, including a body, a distributor, and an insert. The body is hollow, forming an assembly hole into which the insert and distributor are fitted. The body has an internally and externally penetrating air intake hole, and the distributor has jet holes. The insert includes a lower mesh portion and an upper mesh portion. The lower mesh portion includes multiple spokes, and the upper mesh portion includes multiple concentrically arranged circular bars, which are fixed to the spokes. Each circular bar has several pairs of protrusions arranged in a ring array. Each pair of protrusions protrudes from the inner and outer cylindrical surfaces of the circular bar and fits together to form a column. The column is positioned at the connection point between the circular bar and the spokes, and the upper end face of the column is flush with the upper end face of the circular bar. The jet holes of the distributor correspond one-to-one with the columns of the insert, allowing water to pass through the jet holes and directly collide with the columns of the insert.
[0004] The problem with the above technology is that when the water flows through the jet hole and hits the column, it can slow down the speed of the water flow and make the water flow atomized. However, the pressure of the water flow hitting the column is proportional to the size of the water flow. When the water flow is too large, the pressure of the water flow on the column can easily deform the insert, and in severe cases, the insert will break.
[0005] Therefore, a novel bubbler is proposed to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a new type of aerator, which produces full water particles, more thorough atomization, more air content in the water droplets, better water-saving effect, and stable insertion structure.
[0007] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the problem is: a novel aerator, comprising a main body with a top opening, a diverter provided at the top of the main body, a water outlet provided at the bottom of the main body, and an insert provided between the water outlet and the diverter; the insert includes an outer ring and a central column, with a plurality of spokes arranged in a ring around the side end of the central column, the outer ends of the spokes being fixedly connected to the inner side of the outer ring, a plurality of concentric circular strips provided on the spokes, and a plurality of protruding posts arranged in a ring on the circular strips; a plurality of protrusions arranged in a ring on the top of the protruding posts, with a certain gap between adjacent protrusions.
[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a frustum is provided at the middle position of the top of the convex column.
[0009] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the distributor is provided with a plurality of diversion holes, the projection of which overlaps with the protruding post.
[0010] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a number of positioning protrusions are arranged in a ring around the outer side of the outer ring, and a positioning groove is provided on the inner end of the main body, with the positioning protrusions disposed in the positioning groove.
[0011] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the main body is provided with an air inlet that communicates with its interior, and the air inlet is located between the distributor and the insert.
[0012] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a water collection plate is provided on the top of the diverter, and a water collection hole is provided on the water collection plate, which is connected to the diverter hole.
[0013] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a filter screen is provided on the top of the water collection plate.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: the water flow is converted from pipe flow to jet flow through the diverter, and then the jet flow collides with the protrusions on the insert to produce an atomization effect. When the water flow hits the protrusions, the water flow will flow through the gaps between the protrusions and disperse to the surroundings, thereby reducing the pressure of the water flow hitting the protrusions. This can prevent the insert from deforming when the water flow is too large, thereby preventing the insert from breaking. Attached Figure Description

[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 5 A novel aerator includes a main body 1 with a top opening, a diverter 2 at the top of the main body 1, and a water outlet 11 at the bottom of the main body 1. An insert 3 is provided between the water outlet 11 and the diverter 2. The insert 3 includes an outer ring 31 and a central post 32. Several spokes 33 are arranged in a ring around the side end of the central post 32. The outer ends of the spokes 33 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the outer ring 31. Several concentric circular bars 34 are provided on the spokes 33. Several protrusions 35 are arranged in a ring on the circular bars 34. Several protrusions 36 are arranged in a ring on the top of the protrusions 35. There is a certain gap between adjacent protrusions 36.
[0027] The water flow is converted from pipe flow to jet flow through the distributor 2. The jet flow then collides with the protrusion 35 on the insert 3 to produce an atomization effect. When the water flow hits the protrusion 35, the water flow will flow through the gap between the protrusions 36 and disperse to the surroundings, thereby reducing the pressure of the water flow hitting the protrusion 35. This can prevent the insert 3 from deforming when the water flow is too large, thus preventing the insert 3 from breaking.
[0028] In a preferred embodiment, a frustum 37 is provided at the middle position of the top of the protrusion 35. The water flow will hit the frustum 37 and flow into the gap between the protrusions 36, thereby reducing the pressure when the water flow hits the protrusion 35.
[0029] In a preferred embodiment, the diverter 2 is provided with a plurality of diverting holes 21, the projection of which overlaps with the protrusion 35.
[0030] In a preferred embodiment, a plurality of positioning protrusions 38 are arranged in a ring around the outer side of the outer ring 31, and a positioning groove 12 is provided on the inner end of the main body 1, with the positioning protrusions 38 disposed in the positioning groove 12.
[0031] In a preferred embodiment, the main body 1 is provided with an air inlet 13 that communicates with its interior. The air inlet 13 is located between the distributor 2 and the insert 3. When the water flows through the distributor 2, the air can mix with the water through the air inlet 13, making the water flow contain more air.
[0032] In a preferred embodiment, a water collection plate 4 is provided on the top of the diverter 2, and a water collection hole 41 is provided on the water collection plate 4, which is connected to the diverter hole 21.
[0033] In a preferred embodiment, a filter screen 5 is provided on the top of the water collecting plate 4 in order to filter impurities in the water flow.
[0034] In use, water flows from the filter screen 5 into the water collection plate 4. The water flow can be gathered into a pipe flow through the water collection hole 41. Then the pipe flow flows through the diverter 2 and is converted into a jet. When the water flow passes through the diverter hole 21, it can fully mix with air and hit the protrusion 35. The water flow can hit the frustum 37 and flow into the gap between the protrusions 36. Finally, the water flow can flow through the outlet hole 11.
[0035] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the inventive concept of this utility model and the contents of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
