Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sanitary ware, and in particular to a water outlet component and water outlet device. Background Technology
[0002] Because bathroom products such as faucets, aerators, and showerheads accumulate limescale or particulate impurities in their water outlet filters after a period of use, affecting water flow, regular cleaning of the filters is necessary. However, disassembling filters in traditional bathroom products is cumbersome. Therefore, bathroom products with flip-up water outlet panels have emerged on the market. For example, Chinese patent document CN221798605U discloses a water outlet device including a main body, a water outlet panel, and a water flow limiting member. The water outlet panel is flip-mounted within the main body. The main body has a water outlet channel and a water outlet cavity. The water outlet channel has an annular limiting member that presses against the water outlet panel. The water flow limiting member has a limiting part, which is located within the water outlet cavity and has a clearance cavity for the water outlet panel to flip. A sealing member is sandwiched between the water flow limiting member and the annular limiting member.
[0003] In the aforementioned patent documents, during the flipping process, a portion of the water outlet panel remains in contact with the seal, or a large portion of the outer wall surface remains in hard contact with the limiting component. This results in significant resistance during the flipping process, increased wear on the seal, limiting component, and other parts, leading to a shorter-than-expected service life. Furthermore, the aforementioned patent documents cannot guarantee that the water outlet panel will flip completely, thus there is a certain probability that the water outlet panel will become misaligned. This can cause leakage during use because the side wall of the water outlet panel cannot properly contact the seal. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a water outlet component and water outlet device that extends the service life of the parts while preventing water leakage around the water outlet panel.

[0015] Furthermore, the second limiting surface is located on the faceplate, and the distance between the second limiting surface and the end face of the seal is 0~3mm.
[0016] Furthermore, a water supply channel is provided on the circumferential sidewall of the water outlet panel;
[0017] When the water outlet panel is pressed against the seal, a water inlet channel is formed between the portion of the water outlet panel away from the seal and the inner wall of the fixing component, and the water inlet channel is connected to the water replenishment channel.
[0018] Furthermore, in the axial direction of the water outlet assembly, a circumferential blocking member is provided on the side of the fixing assembly away from the water outlet panel;
[0019] One end of the elastic limiting component is sleeved outside the circumferential blocking member or embedded inside the circumferential blocking member.
[0020] Furthermore, the elastic limiting component includes an elastic element and a limiting element;
[0021] One end of the elastic member abuts against the inner wall of the fixing component, and the other end of the elastic member abuts against the limiting member;
[0022] The limiting member is always pressed against the water outlet panel, and the limiting member has space for the water outlet panel to be flipped.
[0023] Furthermore, in the axial direction of the water outlet assembly, the end of the limiting member away from the elastic member has a boss;
[0024] When the water outlet panel and the limiting member are coaxially arranged, the boss abuts against the end face of the water outlet panel.
[0025] Furthermore, in the axial direction of the water outlet assembly, the end of the limiting member away from the elastic member has a limiting stop;
[0026] When the water outlet panel and the limiting member are coaxially arranged, the limiting member is sleeved outside the circumferential sidewall of the water outlet panel, and the distance between the limiting member sleeve and the circumferential sidewall of the water outlet panel is less than 4mm.
[0027] Furthermore, the limiting stop is a ring structure;
[0028] Alternatively, the limiting stop includes at least two spaced comb teeth, with a water flow channel formed between each pair of adjacent comb teeth.
[0029] Furthermore, the water outlet panel includes a first water outlet component and a second water outlet component;
[0030] The first water outlet has a water outlet hole on one side along its axial direction, and the second water outlet is embedded on the other side. The second water outlet and the first water outlet can be connected to each other in a way that allows them to flip over each other.
[0031] The second water outlet has two water outlet surfaces.

[0039] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By setting up an elastic limiting component and a fixing component, the position of the water outlet panel in the axial direction of the water outlet component can change. That is, during the flipping process of the water outlet panel, its contact with the fixing component can be reduced or avoided. Moreover, the contact between the water outlet panel and the elastic limiting component is a flexible elastic contact, thereby reducing the frictional wear of vulnerable parts located at the contact position between the water outlet panel, the elastic limiting component and the fixing component, and thus improving the overall service life of the product. In addition, after the water outlet panel is flipped, the release of the elastic force of the elastic limiting component can reliably keep the water outlet panel and the fixing component pressed together to ensure that the water outlet panel is flipped into place, eliminating the situation of water leakage due to the water outlet panel not being flipped into place.

[0054] 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.
[0055] Please refer to Figures 1-9 A water outlet device includes a water outlet assembly 100. The water outlet assembly 100 includes a water outlet panel 110, a fixing assembly 120, and a spring-loaded limiting assembly 200. The water outlet panel 110 is rotatably embedded in the fixing assembly 120. The spring-loaded limiting assembly 200 is located within the fixing assembly 120. Axially, the spring-loaded limiting assembly 200 abuts against the inner walls of both the water outlet panel 110 and the fixing assembly 120. The spring-loaded limiting assembly 200 is movable relative to the fixing assembly 120. During the movement, the spring-loaded limiting assembly 200 maintains pressure against the water outlet panel 110, and the water outlet panel 110 and the fixing assembly 120 do not contact each other or only partially contact each other. Specifically, the fixing assembly 120 has a movable cavity, and both the water outlet panel 110 and the spring-loaded limiting assembly 200 are embedded within the movable cavity. Water can pass through the movable cavity and be rectified by the water outlet panel 110 before being discharged to the outside. In fact, the distance between the end of the elastic limiting component 200 near the water outlet panel 110 and part of the inner wall of the fixed component 120 can be changed. The distance can be changed, meaning that at least part of the elastic limiting component 200 can deform and at least part of the elastic limiting component 200 can move relative to the movable cavity.
[0056] It is understood that this utility model, by setting up an elastic limiting component and a fixing component, allows the position of the water outlet panel in the axial direction of the water outlet component to change. That is, during the process of the water outlet panel flipping, it can reduce or avoid contact with the fixing component, and the contact between the water outlet panel and the elastic limiting component is a flexible elastic contact, thereby reducing the frictional wear of vulnerable parts located at the contact position between the water outlet panel, the elastic limiting component and the fixing component, and thus improving the overall service life of the product. In addition, after the water outlet panel is flipped, the release of the elasticity of the elastic limiting component can reliably keep the water outlet panel and the fixing component pressed together to ensure that the water outlet panel is flipped into place, eliminating the situation of water leakage due to the water outlet panel not being flipped into place.
[0057] In some embodiments, in the axial direction of the water outlet assembly 100, the fixing assembly 120 has a first limiting surface 121 and a second limiting surface 122 that are disposed opposite to each other; the elastic limiting assembly 200 abuts against the first limiting surface 121, and the water outlet panel 110 can abut against or separate from the second limiting surface 122. Specifically, the relative position of the elastic limiting component 200 and the fixing component 120 changes along the axial direction of the water outlet component 100. This change is usually caused by the pressure applied to the elastic limiting component 200 during the flipping process of the water outlet panel 110. The first limiting surface 121 is set to provide support for the elastic limiting component 220 when the elastic limiting component 200 is subjected to external force. In fact, the first limiting surface 121 serves as a support surface. The second limiting surface 122 is set to support and limit the axial end face of the water outlet panel 110 after the external force is removed. As the external force is removed, the elastic limiting component 200 releases its elasticity and pushes the water outlet panel 110 against the second limiting surface 122, ensuring that the water outlet panel 110 and the water outlet component 100 are in a basically coaxial state, eliminating the situation of water leakage from around the water outlet panel 110 due to the tilt of the water outlet panel 110.
[0058] In some embodiments, the fixing assembly 120 includes a fixing member 123, a faceplate 124, and a sealing member 125; the fixing member 123 and the faceplate 124 are arranged sequentially in the water outlet direction of the water outlet assembly 100; the sealing member 125 is sandwiched between the fixing member 123 and the faceplate 124, and the circumferential sidewall of the water outlet panel 110 can abut against or separate from the sealing member 125. Specifically, the compression of the elastic limiting assembly 200 during the flipping process of the water outlet panel 110 is actually to disengage the water outlet panel 110 from the sealing member 125 and extend the service life of the sealing member 125. Furthermore, when the water outlet panel 110 and the water outlet assembly 100 are coaxially arranged, due to the pressure applied by the elastic limiting assembly 200, the end face of the water outlet panel 110 abuts against the second limiting surface 122. At the same time, the circumferential sidewall of the water outlet panel 110 also abuts against the sealing element 125, achieving a seal and preventing water from flowing through the circumferential sidewall of the water outlet panel 110 and causing leakage. In this embodiment, the sealing element 125 can adopt commonly used and reliable flexible sealing structures such as O-rings and Y-rings.
[0059] In some embodiments, the second limiting surface 122 is located on the cover 124, and the distance h between the second limiting surface 122 and the end face of the seal 125 is 0~3mm. The setting of this distance h is used to limit the amount of movement of the water outlet panel 110 toward the water outlet direction, thereby limiting the contact sealing position between the seal 125 and the water outlet panel 110, and ensuring the sealing effect. Optionally, the spacing h can be 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 1.1, 1.26, 1.27, 1.28, 1.29, 1.30, 1.31, 1.32, 1.33, 1.34, 1.35, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 2.8, 2.9, or 3 mm. When the spacing h is 0, one end face of the seal 125 is flush with the second limiting surface 122. Preferably, the spacing h is 1.3 mm.
[0060] In some embodiments, a water supply channel 111 is provided on the circumferential sidewall of the water outlet panel 110; when the water outlet panel 110 abuts against the seal 125, a water inlet channel 112 is formed between the portion of the water outlet panel 110 away from the seal 125 and the inner wall of the fixing assembly 120, and the water inlet channel 112 communicates with the water supply channel 111. Due to the above-mentioned spacing h, the water outlet panel 110 can contact the seal 125 in a suitable position, so that no matter which side of the water outlet panel 110 is flipped to serve as the water outlet surface, the water flow can flow through the water inlet channel 112 and the water supply channel 111 and enter the water outlet panel 110, thus supplementing the water flow of the water outlet panel 110.
[0061] In some embodiments, a circumferential blocking member 126 is provided on the side of the fixing component 120 away from the water outlet panel 110 along the axial direction of the water outlet component 100; one end of the elastic limiting component 200 is sleeved outside or embedded in the circumferential blocking member 126. The circumferential blocking member 126 is provided to limit the elastic limiting component 200 in the radial direction, preventing the elastic limiting component 200 from shifting, and facilitating quick positioning of the elastic limiting component 200 during assembly, reducing assembly difficulty. Specifically, the circumferential blocking member 126 can be a full-circumference annular retaining ring, or it can be composed of multiple blocking blocks evenly spaced around the axis of the water outlet component 100.
[0062] In some embodiments, the elastic limiting assembly 200 includes an elastic member 210 and a limiting member 220; one end of the elastic member 210 abuts against the inner wall of the fixing assembly 120, and the other end of the elastic member 210 abuts against the limiting member 220; the limiting member 220 is always pressed against the water outlet panel 110, and the limiting member 220 has space for the water outlet panel 110 to rotate. Optionally, the elastic member 210 can be a tension spring or a compression spring. When the elastic element 210 is a compression spring, one end of the elastic element 210 abuts against the limiting element 220, while the other end of the elastic element 210 abuts against the side of the fixing component 120 away from the water outlet panel 110; when the elastic element 210 is a tension spring, one end of the elastic element 210 is fixedly connected to the limiting element 220, while the other end of the elastic element 210 is fixedly connected to the end of the fixing component 120 near the water outlet panel 110; since the compression spring does not require a fixed connection, while the tension spring does, the solution using the compression spring is simpler. However, regardless of whether the elastic element 210 is a tension spring or a compression spring, it always applies a force to the limiting element 220 and the water outlet panel 110, and this force is used to push the water outlet panel 110 against the second limiting surface 122. Correspondingly, a limiting ring 225 coaxially arranged with the circumferential blocking member 126 is also provided on the side of the limiting member 220 facing the circumferential blocking member 126, and the elastic member 210 is sleeved outside the limiting ring 225 or embedded inside the limiting ring 225.
[0063] In some embodiments, in the axial direction of the water outlet assembly 100, the end of the limiting member 220 away from the elastic member 210 has a boss 221; when the water outlet panel 110 and the limiting member 220 are coaxially arranged, the boss 221 abuts against the end face of the water outlet panel 110. Due to the protrusion 221, during the process of external force removal, that is, as the external force gradually becomes less than the elastic force of the elastic member 210, when the limiting member 220 is reset under the push of the elastic member 210, the protrusion 221 is also reset. At the moment of contact between the protrusion 221 and the water outlet panel 110, a vibration will be generated and the user can feel it through their fingertips. This vibration can help the user confirm whether the water outlet panel 110 has been flipped into place. The faster the external force is removed, the more obvious the vibration will be. In addition, if the protrusion 221 is set as a complete ring or evenly distributed along the circumference, the limiting member 220 can apply pressure evenly to the entire circumference of the end face of the water outlet panel 110, so that the water outlet panel 110 is always kept in a balanced and pressed state.
[0064] In some embodiments, in the axial direction of the water outlet assembly 100, the end of the limiting member 220 away from the elastic member 210 has a limiting stop 222; when the water outlet panel 110 and the limiting member 220 are coaxially arranged, the limiting stop 222 is sleeved on the circumferential sidewall of the water outlet panel 110, and the distance between the limiting stop 222 and the circumferential sidewall of the water outlet panel 110 is less than 4mm. The limiting stop 222 is provided to restrict the movement of the water outlet panel 110 in the radial direction, and can cooperate with the inner wall of the fixing member 123 to guide and limit the reciprocating movement of the limiting member 220 in the axial direction.
[0065] Reference Figure 5 In one embodiment, the limiting stop 222 is an annular structure. In this case, the limiting stop 222 is used to restrict the movement of the water outlet panel 110 in the radial direction and to guide and limit the reciprocating movement of the limiting stop 220 in the axial direction; see reference. Figure 1 In another embodiment, the limiting stop 222 includes at least two spaced comb teeth 223, and a water flow channel 224 is formed between each two adjacent comb teeth 223. In addition to limiting and guiding, this structure can also replenish water to the water outlet panel 110 through the water replenishment channel 111 when the water outlet panel 110 has a water replenishment channel 111. That is, the water flow can flow through the water flow channel 224 and the water replenishment channel 111 in sequence into the water outlet panel 110.
[0066] In some embodiments, the water outlet panel 110 includes a first water outlet element 113 and a second water outlet element 114; the first water outlet element 113 is rotatably embedded in the fixing assembly 120; one side of the first water outlet element 113 in the axial direction is provided with a water outlet hole, and the other side is provided with the second water outlet element 114, the second water outlet element 114 and the first water outlet element 113 are rotatably connected; the second water outlet element 114 has two water outlet surfaces with the same or different shapes. Due to the pressure applied to the water outlet panel 110 by the elastic limiting assembly 200, the first water outlet element 113 can maintain a relatively stable position when the second water outlet element 114 is rotatably rotated relative to the first water outlet element 113. Furthermore, when the second water outlet 114 has two water outlet surfaces of the same shape, the flipping of the second water outlet 114 is used to clean up the impurities intercepted on the second water outlet 114. When the second water outlet 114 has two water outlet surfaces of different shapes, in addition to the above-mentioned function of cleaning impurities, the first water outlet 113 and the second water outlet 114 can also form at least three completely different water splashes.
[0067] In some embodiments, the fastener 123 is threaded or snap-fitted to the cover 124. Specifically, when the fastener 123 is snap-fitted to the cover 124, male and female snaps are respectively provided on the fastener 123 or the cover 124, so that the two are snapped together by the male and female snaps, which facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the cover 124 and the fastener 123.
[0068] In some embodiments, the water outlet device includes a housing 300, a water flow regulating component 400, an opening and closing component 500, and a flow channel component 600. The flow channel component 600 is connected to a water source through an upstream inlet 620 and to a fixing component through a downstream outlet 630. The housing 300 is sleeved on the flow channel component 600. The flow channel component 600 has a water passage 610 inside. The opening and closing component 500 and the water flow regulating component 400 are sequentially and vertically inserted into the flow channel component 600 along the drainage direction of the flow channel component 600, and a portion of them are exposed outside the housing 300. The opening and closing component 500 is used to change the connection state between the inlet 620 and the outlet 630, and the water flow regulating component 400 is used to change the flow area of the water passage 610. Specifically, the water flow regulating component 400 and the opening / closing component 500 are respectively inserted into the flow channel component 600 through the housing 300, and the outlet 630 of the flow channel component 600 is connected to the fixing component 123. In the water outlet direction of the flow channel component 600, the water flow regulating component 400 is located downstream of the opening / closing component 500. In the initial state, both the opening / closing component 500 and the water flow regulating component 400 are in the released state, that is, the flow channel component 600 is in the water-flowing state. When the opening / closing component 500 is pressed... If the inlet 620 is closed, the water flow channel 610 between the inlet 620 and the outlet 630 is blocked. With the water flow channel 610 open, the water flow regulating component 400 can be pressed to increase the water flow area as needed. The increased water flow area is maintained by the pressure of the water pressure on the valve core of the water flow regulating component 400. When the opening / closing component 500 is pressed, the water flow regulating component 400 will reset due to the removal of water pressure, returning to a smaller water flow area. Both the water flow regulating component 400 and the opening / closing component 500 are existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.

The limiting element 220 is not perfectly spherical, and the limiting element 220 has a water passage hole 226.

[0078] In this embodiment, the limiting stop 222 includes a plurality of comb teeth 223 arranged at equal intervals, and a water flow channel 224 is formed between every two adjacent comb teeth 223.
[0079] In this embodiment, the water outlet panel 110 includes a first water outlet component 113 and a second water outlet component 114; the first water outlet component 113 is rotatably embedded in the fixing component 120; one side of the first water outlet component 113 is provided with a water outlet hole, and the other side is provided with the second water outlet component 114, and the second water outlet component 114 and the first water outlet component 113 are rotatably connected; the second water outlet component 114 has two water outlet surfaces.
[0080] Embodiment two of this utility model is as follows:
[0081] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the connection method between the fastener 123 and the cover 124 is different.
[0082] In this embodiment, the fastener 123 is engaged with the cover 124. A male buckle 127 is provided on the fastener 123, and a female buckle 128 is provided on the cover 124, so that the two are engaged by the male buckle 127 and the female buckle 128. Furthermore, the base portion of the female buckle 128 on the cover 124 has a protrusion 129 extending circumferentially along the cover 124, which is used for engaging with the housing 300. In other equivalent embodiments, the protrusion 129 may also be threaded.
[0083] In this embodiment, a limiting ring 225 coaxially arranged with the circumferential blocking member 126 is also provided on the side of the limiting member 220 facing the circumferential blocking member 126, and the elastic member 210 is sleeved on the limiting ring 225.
[0084] Embodiment 3 of this utility model is as follows:
[0085] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiments 1 and 2 is that it limits the other structures of the water outlet device.
[0086] The water outlet device includes a housing 300, a water flow regulating component 400, an opening and closing component 500, and a flow channel component 600. The flow channel component 600 is connected to a water source through an upstream inlet 620 and to a fixed component through a downstream outlet 630. The housing 300 is fitted onto the flow channel component 600. The flow channel component 600 has a water passage 610 inside. The opening and closing component 500 and the water flow regulating component 400 are sequentially and vertically inserted into the flow channel component 600 along the drainage direction of the flow channel component 600, with some parts exposed outside the housing 300. The opening and closing component 500 is used to change the connection state between the inlet 620 and the outlet 630, and the water flow regulating component 400 is used to change the flow area of the water passage 610.
[0087] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0088] When the water outlet panel 110 needs to be flipped, press the water outlet panel 110 into the movable cavity to separate the water outlet panel 110 from the second limiting surface 122 and the seal 125. At this time, the elastic element 210 is compressed and stores energy.
[0089] After the water outlet panel 110 has rotated approximately 180° and the external force has been removed, the elastic element 210 releases energy, pushing the limiting element 220 to reset. Driven by the limiting element 220, the water outlet panel 110 presses against the second limiting surface 122 and the sealing element 125. Under the combined action of the elastic element 210 and the water pressure, the water outlet panel 110 will be held in this position, so that the water outlet panel 110 can always be kept in a reliable sealing position.
[0090] In summary, the water outlet assembly and device provided by this utility model allow the water outlet panel to be movable within the movable cavity through the elastic limiting component. When an external force is applied to the water outlet panel, it can separate from the sealing element, face cover, and other parts, and complete the flipping. After flipping into place, it maintains pressure against the face cover and sealing element under the action of the elastic limiting component, which can reduce the wear of parts and prevent water leakage due to the tilt of the water outlet panel.
[0091] 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.
