The cover plate 212 is a light-transmitting element, which covers and seals the annular groove 213. The light emitted by the light source 22 is emitted through the cover plate 212. The water outlet 120 can avoid the mounting hole 201 and the cover plate 212, which facilitates the processing of the housing 21 and makes it easier to seal the light source 22 and the battery 23 in the annular groove 213, preventing water vapor from entering the housing 21 when the shower body 10 is spraying water.

[0043] Optionally, the cover plate 212 can be a glass plate or a transparent silicone plate, which can improve light transmission, help ensure light power, and improve the phototherapy effect. The cover plate 212 and the mounting shell 211 can be sealed by means of adhesive bonding or welding to improve the sealing effect.

[0044] Optionally, the housing 21 also includes an annular frame 216, which is connected to the lamp panel 221 and / or mounting housing 211. The lens 24 is clamped between the lamp panel 221 and the annular frame 216, with the annular frame 216 located on the side of the cover plate 212 near the annular groove 213. This facilitates the fixing of the lens 24 to the light source 22. The annular frame 216 can be connected to the lamp panel 221 or mounting housing 211 by screws or clips, thus facilitating disassembly and maintenance.

[0045] Optionally, a bracket 26 is also installed inside the housing 21, and the lens 24 is installed inside the bracket 26. The two ends of the bracket 26 abut against the lamp panel 221 and the ring frame 216, respectively. In this way, the position of the lens 24 can be kept stable, so that the LED beads 222 are aligned with the lens 24.

[0046] In one embodiment of this application, please refer to Figures 2 to 4 The connecting position 13 is a slot, and the locking position 210 is a protrusion. The protrusion and slot engage to lock the locking position 210 and the connecting position 13, facilitating the connection or disassembly of the shower body 10 and the phototherapy mechanism 20. Alternatively, in other embodiments of this application, the connecting position 13 can be a protrusion, and the locking position 210 a slot, locking the water outlet section 12 of the shower body 10 and the phototherapy mechanism 20 together.

[0047] In one embodiment of this application, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The mounting hole 201 is a circular hole, and the water outlet section 12 is cylindrical. The connection position 13 includes a first groove 131, a second groove 132, and a locking groove 133. The first groove 131 is arranged along the axial direction of the water outlet section 12, the second groove 132 is arranged along the circumference of the water outlet section 12, and the locking groove 133 is used to position the locking groove 133 of the protrusion. The first groove 131 extends from one end of the water outlet section 12 near the water outlet hole 120 to the middle of the water outlet section 12 along the axial direction. The two ends of the second groove 132 are connected to the first groove 131 and the locking groove 133, respectively. When the shower body 10 is connected to the phototherapy mechanism 20, the water outlet section 12 is inserted into the mounting hole 201, and the locking protrusion slides from the open end of the first groove 131 to the end of the first groove 131 near the second groove 132; when the locking protrusion slides to the end of the first groove 131 near the second groove 132, the phototherapy mechanism 20 is rotated so that the locking protrusion slides along the second groove 132 to the end of the second groove 132 near the locking groove 133; when the locking protrusion slides to the locking groove 133, the locking groove 133 engages to lock the locking protrusion, thereby preventing the shower body 10 from separating from the phototherapy mechanism 20, so as to maintain the stability of the connection between the shower body 10 and the phototherapy mechanism 20.

[0048] Optionally, the locking groove 133 is elongated, extending from the end of the second groove 132 away from the first groove 131 toward the side of the water outlet section 12 near the water outlet hole 120; the depth of the end of the locking groove 133 away from the second groove 132 can be greater than the second groove 132. This helps prevent the locking protrusion from sliding from the locking groove 133 to the second groove 132, causing the phototherapy mechanism 20 to loosen.

[0049] In one embodiment of this application, please refer to Figures 2 to 4 The battery 23 is a rechargeable battery.
