Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bathroom product technology, and more specifically, to a rotating shower device. Background Technology

[0002] In existing shower systems, overhead showerheads are typically fixed to the top of the shower rod, making it impossible to adjust their height and angle. This results in a limited shower experience, with water only spraying downwards from above the user's head, offering no customization to suit individual needs. Furthermore, since both overhead and handheld showerheads require faucet control for water intake and switching, these faucets are bulky and require significant installation space, making them unsuitable for smaller bathrooms. Additionally, for shower faucets with only one outlet or concealed faucets, installing an overhead showerhead necessitates replacing the entire faucet, increasing costs and reducing competitiveness in the aftermarket. Utility Model Content

[0003] This utility model discloses a rotating shower device, which aims to improve the problem of the single shower mode of existing shower devices, resulting in a poor user experience.

[0004] The present invention adopts the following solution:

[0005] A rotating shower device includes a water distribution body and a first water outlet assembly and a second water outlet assembly connected to the water distribution body. The water distribution body has an inlet, a first outlet, and a second outlet, and a switching valve coaxially disposed within the water distribution body. A handle connected to the switching valve is located at the front end of the water distribution body, allowing one outlet to be connected to the inlet by rotating or pressing the handle. The first water outlet assembly includes a first shower head and a swing arm connected to the first shower head. The swing arm is rotatably connected to the water distribution body and has a first flow channel for communicating with the first outlet. The second water outlet assembly includes a second shower head, which communicates with the second outlet.

[0006] As a further improvement, the second water outlet assembly also includes a slide rod connected to the second shower head. The slide rod extends downward along the water distribution body and is equipped with a socket for fixing the second shower head. The slide rod has a second flow channel for communicating with the second water outlet.

[0007] As a further improvement, the water distribution body is provided with an installation cavity, which is connected to the water inlet, the first water outlet and the second water outlet. The switching valve is disposed in the installation cavity, and the first water outlet and the second water outlet are located on the side wall of the water distribution body.

[0008] As a further improvement, one end of the swing arm is fitted onto the water distribution body so that the first shower head can swing laterally around the water distribution body, and the other end is connected to the first shower head via a ball head.

[0009] As a further improvement, wear-resistant plates are fitted at the locations where the water separator connects to the swing arm and the handle.

[0010] As a further improvement, a limiting element is provided at the end of the water divider away from the handle to limit the swing arm along the axial direction of the water divider.

[0011] As a further improvement, the limiting member is provided with a receiving groove on the side facing the swing arm, and a wave-shaped gasket for abutting against the swing arm is disposed in the receiving groove.

The water inlet connector, the limiting member, the swing arm, the switching valve and the handle can all be assembled onto the water distribution body along the axial direction of the water distribution body.

[0013] As a further improvement, the central axis of the water divider is set at an angle to the wall, and the slide bar has an inclined section connected to the water divider and a vertical section parallel to the wall.

[0014] As a further improvement, the slide bar is configured to be fixed to the wall via a wall seat.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the present invention can achieve the following technical effects:

[0016] 1. The swing arm of this application is rotatably connected to the water distribution body, allowing the first shower head to swing relative to the water distribution body, thereby adjusting the height and angle of the first shower head to enrich the water output modes, meet different user needs, and enhance the showering experience. For example, when a user does not need to wash their hair, they can swing the first shower head away from their head to avoid getting their hair wet. The first shower head can also be rotated to a lower position for back showering, allowing back muscles to relax. Simultaneously, the switching valve is located on the water distribution body, eliminating the need for a switching mechanism on the faucet, reducing the faucet's size, facilitating aftermarket shower head installation, reducing replacement costs, and enhancing competitiveness in the aftermarket. Furthermore, the handle is mounted on the front of the water distribution body, making it convenient for users to operate and observe the current setting, preventing accidental water exposure.

[0017] 2. The second shower head is fixed by a socket. Compared with the existing technology that uses magnetic or suction cup fixing, the socket can be height adjusted along the slide bar, which is more convenient for users and the connection method is more reliable.

[0018] 3. A wave-shaped gasket is provided between the limiting component and the swing arm to increase the friction of the swing arm during rotation, so that the swing arm can stay in any position.

[0019] 4. The water inlet connector, limiting component, swing arm, switching valve and handle can all be assembled onto the water distribution body along the axial direction of the water distribution body, so as to simplify the disassembly and assembly of the entire shower device and improve the efficiency of disassembly and assembly.

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. Example

[0036] Combination Figures 1 to 8 This embodiment provides a rotating shower device, including a water distribution body 1 and a first water outlet assembly 2 and a second water outlet assembly 3 connected to the water distribution body 1. The water distribution body 1 has an inlet 11, a first water outlet 12, and a second water outlet 13. A switching valve 4, coaxially arranged with the water distribution body 1, is installed inside the water distribution body 1. A handle 41 connected to the switching valve 4 is located at the front end of the water distribution body 1. By rotating or pressing the handle 41, one water outlet can be connected to the inlet 11. The first water outlet assembly 2 includes a first shower head 21 and a swing arm 22 connected to the first shower head 21. The swing arm 22 is rotatably connected to the water distribution body 1 and has a first flow channel 221 for communicating with the first water outlet 12. The second water outlet assembly 3 includes a second shower head, which communicates with the second water outlet. The first shower head 21 is an overhead shower head, and the second shower head (not shown) is a handheld shower head. The second shower head is connected to the water outlet end of a slide bar 31 via a hose.

[0037] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the swing arm 22 is rotatably connected to the water distribution body 1, allowing the first shower head 21 to swing relative to the water distribution body 1, thereby adjusting the height and angle of the first shower head 21. This provides a wider variety of water output modes to meet different user needs and enhance the showering experience. For example, when a user does not need to wash their hair, they can swing the first shower head 21 away from their head to avoid getting their hair wet. The first shower head 21 can also be rotated to a lower position for back showering, allowing back muscles to relax. Simultaneously, the switching valve 4 is configured on the water distribution body 1, eliminating the need for a switching structure on the faucet, reducing the faucet's size, facilitating aftermarket shower head installation, reducing replacement costs, and enhancing competitiveness in the aftermarket.

[0038] Furthermore, placing the handle 41 at the front end of the water distribution body 1 rather than on the side facilitates user operation, allows for better observation of the current setting, and prevents accidental water exposure. Specifically, the water distribution body 1 has an installation cavity 14, which is connected to the inlet 11, the first outlet 12, and the second outlet 13. The switching valve 4 is disposed within the installation cavity 14, and the first outlet 12 and the second outlet 13 are located on the side wall of the water distribution body 1. The switching valve 4 is a bottom-in, side-out valve, with outlet holes on its side wall corresponding to the two outlets. In other embodiments, the switching valve 4 can also be a push-button switching valve, and is not limited to this.

[0039] In a preferred embodiment, the second water outlet assembly 3 further includes a slide rod 31 connected to the second shower head. The slide rod 31 extends downward along the water distribution body 1 and is equipped with a socket 32 ​​for fixing the second shower head. The slide rod 31 has a second flow channel 311 for communicating with the second water outlet 13. The second shower head is fixed by the socket 32. Compared with the prior art of fixing by magnetic attraction or suction cup, the socket 32 ​​can be height adjusted along the slide rod 31, which is more convenient for users and the connection method is more reliable.

[0040] In another embodiment, one end of the swing arm 22 is fitted onto the water distribution body 1, allowing the first shower head 21 to swing laterally around the water distribution body 1. The other end is connected to the first shower head 21 via a ball head 23. The user can manually rotate the first shower head 21 or the swing arm 22 to adjust it to the desired position. The connection between the first shower head 21 and the ball head 23 allows for further adjustment of the water outlet angle, enhancing user convenience and providing a better showering experience.

[0041] Preferably, wear-resistant plates 5 are fitted at the connection points between the water separator 1 and the swing arm 22 and the handle 41. The wear-resistant plates 5 can be made of POM to prevent the swing arm 22 and the handle 41 from wearing during rotation, and at the same time to prevent the electroplated surface of the water separator 1 from being scratched, ensuring an aesthetically pleasing appearance.

[0042] Based on the above embodiments, in an optional embodiment of this utility model, a limiting member 6 is provided at the end of the water divider 1 away from the handle 41 to limit the swing arm 22 along the axial direction of the water divider 1, thereby preventing the swing arm 22 from moving. Further, the limiting member 6 has a receiving groove on the side facing the swing arm 22, and a corrugated gasket 61 is provided in the receiving groove to abut against the swing arm 22, thereby increasing the friction of the swing arm 22 during rotation, allowing the swing arm 22 to stop at any position. Multiple corrugated gaskets 61 can be provided to ensure stable and reliable stopping of the swing arm 22.

[0043] Preferably, the limiting member 6 is connected to the water distribution body 1 by a thread, and the water inlet 11 is provided with a water inlet connector 7 for connecting to the water inlet pipe. The water inlet connector 7, the limiting member 6, the swing arm 22, the switching valve 4 and the handle 41 can all be assembled onto the water distribution body 1 along the axial direction of the water distribution body 1, so as to simplify the disassembly and assembly of the entire shower device and improve the efficiency of disassembly and assembly.

[0044] In other embodiments, the central axis of the water distribution body 1 is set at an angle to the wall, so that the angle of the first shower head 21 tilts downward with the water distribution body 1, which is beneficial for showering. The slide rod 31 has an inclined section connected to the water distribution body 1 and a vertical section parallel to the wall. The socket 32 ​​is slidably configured on the vertical section, wherein the socket 32 ​​is provided with a socket 321, and the second shower head is inserted into the socket 321 and fixed. The structure of the socket 32 ​​is prior art and will not be described in detail here. In another embodiment, the slide rod 31 is constructed to be fixed to the wall via a wall base to make the slide rod 31 firm and prevent the slide rod 31 from shaking.

[0045] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions that fall within the scope of this utility model's concept are protected by this utility model.
