Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bathroom technology, and in particular to a multifunctional water-saving overhead shower head. Background Technology

[0002] A shower head, also known as a watering can, was originally a device for watering flowers, potted plants, and other plants. Later, it was modified into a shower device, making it a common bathroom item. Shower heads are categorized by type: handheld shower heads, overhead shower heads, and side-spray shower heads. Overhead shower heads typically offer various water flow patterns, allowing users to choose the appropriate flow to meet different needs.

[0003] A novel overhead shower head disclosed in publication number CN207863059U connects to the shower head via an embedded water pipe. This water pipe not only supports the shower head but also provides a water connection between the two. The shower head includes a cavity for housing the water pipe. This embedded design makes the water pipe and shower head appear as one, with the water pipe concealed within the shower head. The structure is simple, aesthetically pleasing, and easy to install.

[0004] However, this new type of overhead shower has the following disadvantages: when hot water is needed for showering, cold water must be released for a period of time before hot water can be supplied, which easily leads to water waste and is not convenient for saving water. In addition, the water contains chlorine and other impurities, which will produce limescale after long-term use, clogging the outlet of the overhead shower and reducing the service life of the overhead shower.

[0017] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0018] This utility model provides a multi-functional water-saving overhead shower head, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] 1. This multi-functional water-saving overhead shower head, through the setting of monitoring components and water storage tank, allows water to be delivered to the three-way solenoid valve pipe after the external switch of the shower head is turned on during use. The PLC control equipment sets the temperature control threshold for the three-way solenoid valve pipe to open and deliver water. The temperature sensor monitors the temperature of the internal water. When there is a continuous flow of cold water, the water is delivered to the water storage tank from the discharge pipe. When the temperature sensor detects that the temperature has reached the monitored temperature threshold, the PLC control equipment controls the valve of the three-way solenoid valve pipe to open the valve of the delivery pipe, allowing the water that has reached the required temperature to pass through. This collects and reuses the initial cold water in the pipe, avoiding the need for the overhead shower head to release cold water for a period of time before supplying hot water when hot water is needed, which easily leads to water waste and helps to save water.

[0020] 2. This multi-functional water-saving overhead shower head, through its filter components, effectively blocks particulate matter and impurities in the water when it is delivered into the pipe. The ceramic filter element, with its small pore size, can further filter even finer particles. The ion exchange resin in the metal removal zone removes heavy metal ions from the water, reducing water hardness. The activated carbon adsorption layer adsorbs organic matter, chlorine, and other odors from the water, thereby improving water quality and reducing the formation of limescale. This prevents limescale buildup and clogging of the shower head after prolonged use, helping to improve water quality and extend the shower head's lifespan. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0027] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a multi-functional water-saving overhead shower head, including a shower head 1, a mounting shell 2, and a delivery pipe 3. A monitoring component 4 is threadedly installed at the bottom end of the delivery pipe 3, and a water storage tank 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the monitoring component 4. An assembly pipe fitting 6 is threadedly connected to the other end of the delivery pipe 3, and a filter component 7 is installed inside the assembly pipe fitting 6. A discharge pipe 11 is fixedly connected to the lower side of one side of the water storage tank 5.

[0028] The monitoring component 4 includes a three-way solenoid valve 401, a temperature sensor 402, a PLC control device 403, and a discharge pipe 404. Through the monitoring component 4 and the water storage tank 5, when the external switch of the shower head is turned on, water is delivered to the three-way solenoid valve 401. The PLC control device 403 sets the temperature control threshold for the three-way solenoid valve 401 to open and deliver water. The temperature sensor 402 monitors the temperature of the internal water. When there is continuous cold water, water is delivered from the discharge pipe 404 to the water storage tank 5. When the temperature sensor 402 detects that the temperature has reached the monitored temperature threshold, the PLC control device 403 controls the valve of the three-way solenoid valve 401 to open the valve on the delivery pipe 3, allowing water at the required temperature to pass through. This collects and reuses the initial cold water in the pipe, avoiding the need for the overhead shower head to release cold water for a period of time before supplying hot water, which easily leads to water waste and helps save water.

[0029] The filter assembly 7 includes an inner filter screen 701, a fiber filter layer 702, a ceramic filter element 703, a metal removal zone 704, and an activated carbon adsorption layer 705. Through the configuration of the filter assembly 7, when water is delivered into the delivery pipe 3, the fiber filter layer 702 effectively blocks particulate matter and impurities in the water. The ceramic filter element 703, with its smaller pore size, can further filter finer particles. The ion exchange resin in the metal removal zone 704 removes heavy metal ions from the water, reducing water hardness. The activated carbon adsorption layer 705 adsorbs organic matter, chlorine, and other odors in the water, thereby improving water quality and reducing limescale buildup. This prevents limescale buildup from prolonged use of the overhead shower head, which can clog the shower head's nozzles, thus helping to improve water quality and extend the shower head's lifespan.

[0030] The monitoring component 4 includes a three-way solenoid valve pipe 401 threadedly installed at the bottom of the conveying pipe 3. A temperature sensor 402 is fixedly installed on one side of the three-way solenoid valve pipe 401. A PLC control device 403 is electrically connected to one side of the temperature sensor 402 via a power line. The other output end of the three-way solenoid valve pipe 401 is connected to a discharge pipe 404. By setting up the monitoring component 4, it plays a role in monitoring and saving water.

[0031] The filter assembly 7 includes an inner filter screen 701 disposed inside the assembly pipe 6. The inner filter screen 701 has a fiber filter layer 702 disposed inside, a ceramic filter element 703 disposed on one side of the fiber filter layer 702, a metal removal zone 704 disposed on one side of the ceramic filter element 703, and an activated carbon adsorption layer 705 disposed on one side of the metal removal zone 704. Through the arrangement of the filter assembly 7, the water body is purified.

[0032] The fiber filter layer 702 is made of polypropylene, and the filler in the metal removal zone 704 is ion exchange resin. The filtration function is achieved through the setting of the barrier mesh 9.

[0033] The bottom of the filter inner screen 701 is threaded with a barrier A screen 8, and the top of the filter inner screen 701 is threaded with a barrier B screen 9. The barrier B screen 9 serves to block the filter.

[0034] An installation component 10 is fixedly connected to the middle of the top surface of the shower head 1. The installation component 10 is threaded to the bottom end of the assembly pipe fitting 6. The installation component 10 serves the purpose of installation.

[0035] A through hole is provided on one side below the mounting housing 2. The through hole is compatible with the discharge pipe 404. The mounting housing 2 serves to conceal the pipeline.

[0036] In this invention, the working steps of the device are as follows:

[0037] First step: When in use, after turning on the external switch of the shower head, water is delivered to the three-way solenoid valve pipe 401. The PLC control device 403 sets the temperature control threshold for the three-way solenoid valve pipe 401 to open and deliver water. The temperature sensor 402 monitors the temperature of the internal water. When the water is continuously cold, the water is delivered from the discharge pipe 404 to the water storage tank 5. When the temperature sensor 402 detects that the temperature has reached the monitored temperature threshold, the PLC control device 403 controls the valve of the three-way solenoid valve pipe 401 to open to the valve of the delivery pipe 3, allowing the water that has reached the required temperature to pass through.

[0038] The second step: When in use, when water is delivered into the delivery pipe 3, the fiber filter layer 702 can effectively block particulate matter and impurities in the water, the ceramic filter element 703 has a small pore size, which can further filter finer particles, the ion exchange resin in the metal removal zone 704 can remove heavy metal ions in the water and reduce water hardness, and the activated carbon adsorption layer 705 can adsorb organic matter, chlorine and other odors in the water.
