Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kitchen and bathroom technology, and in particular to a shower inlet pipe fitting with filter and a shower. Background Technology

[0002] To improve water quality, many showerheads have added filter components to filter the water. However, in existing showerheads, the filter components are mostly located inside the main body of the showerhead, such as showerheads with filter cartridges inside the handle. Since the filter cartridges are mostly tubular, if a filter component is to be installed in the overhead showerhead, the main body needs to be thickened, or an additional horizontal filter cartridge installation channel needs to be added, which complicates the internal water circuit. This makes it difficult for the overhead showerhead to be more suitable for tubular filter cartridges without increasing the thickness of the main body of the showerhead and the complexity of the internal water circuit. This utility model provides a new filter cartridge installation method that can solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

The clamping port of the limiting clamp passes through the insertion port and is locked in the limiting slot of the inner tube.

[0013] Preferably, for ease of assembly, the limiting slot is an annular groove, the insertion port is a strip-shaped opening, and the limiting clamp is plate-shaped.

[0014] Preferably, the inner tube has an annular groove on its outer periphery, and a sealing ring is fitted inside the annular groove.

[0015] In a second aspect, a shower is provided, comprising a water outlet body and a shower inlet pipe with filter as described in the first aspect, wherein the inlet connector of the water outlet body is assembled at the outlet end of the connecting pipe.

[0016] Preferably, the main water outlet is a top-mounted water sprayer, the water outlet pipe is a mounting arm, the water inlet end is mounted on the wall, and the middle part of the water outlet pipe is an arc-shaped bend.

[0017] As can be seen from the above description of this utility model, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
