[0021] 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.
[0022] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 A shower head with a switching structure includes a shower head, a handle, and a switching structure. The shower head has a first water outlet channel and a second water outlet channel, and the handle has a water inlet channel. Both the first and second water outlet channels are connected to the switching structure. The switching structure is located on the handle and connected to the water inlet channel. The switching structure is swayable and can swing left and right to switch between connecting to the first or second water outlet channel.
[0023] As can be seen from the above description, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: by switching the swing setting of the switching structure, the connection between the water inlet channel and different water outlet channels can be switched to achieve different water outlet modes; the swing setting of the switching structure on the handle makes it convenient for users to operate quickly when holding it with one hand.
[0024] Furthermore, the switching structure includes a swing member and a driving member. One end of the swing member is opposite to the first water outlet channel and the second water outlet channel, and the other end is connected to the water inlet channel. The swing member has transmission parts on both sides, and the driving member is swingably mounted on the handle, with transmission parts extending from both sides toward the transmission parts.
[0025] As described above, by swinging the drive component, the transmission component on the drive component presses against the transmission part of the swing component, causing the swing component to swing and change its relative position with the first water outlet channel and the second water outlet channel, thereby adjusting the water outlet mode.
[0026] Furthermore, the inlet end of the first water outlet channel and the inlet end of the second water outlet channel are both provided on the same end of the shower head, and the outlet end of the swing member is located between the inlet end of the first water outlet channel and the inlet end of the second water outlet channel.
[0027] As can be seen from the above description, by designing the first and second water outlet channels to be located at the same end of the shower head, the design of the oscillating component can be simplified. By placing it between the two, the connection of the water inlet channel can be easily adjusted by the oscillation amplitude.
[0028] Furthermore, the water outlet end of the swing element is elliptical.
[0029] As can be seen from the above description, the water outlet shape of the swing component can be designed to determine the amount of water that passes through after swinging, and the shape of the water outlet of the swing component can be adjusted according to design requirements.
[0030] Furthermore, the switching structure also includes a sealing element, which is sleeved inside the water outlet end of the swing element. The sealing element is provided with water outlet holes corresponding to the water inlet end of the first water outlet channel and the water inlet end of the second water outlet channel. The side of the sealing element with the water outlet hole is opposite to the water outlet end of the swing element and is spaced apart.
[0031] As described above, the sealing element is connected to the outlet end of the oscillating element to ensure a tight seal during water flow. Furthermore, the design of the seal's outlet hole and its spacing from the outlet end of the oscillating element allow the water pressure to press the seal firmly against the end of the shower head, improving its sealing performance. Compared to traditional methods using springs or similar structures for pressure sealing, using water pressure reduces resistance during oscillation switching, making operation more convenient.
[0032] Furthermore, the shower head is provided with a limiting member at the end corresponding to the inlet end of the first water outlet channel and the inlet end of the second water outlet channel, and baffles are provided on both sides of the limiting member corresponding to the left and right swing paths of the swing member.
[0033] As can be seen from the above description, the swing range of the swinging component can be limited by the design of the limiting component and its baffle.
[0034] Furthermore, a stop is provided on the upper side of the limiting member corresponding to the left and right swing path of the swinging member.
[0035] As described above, the swing range of the swinging component is limited by the assistance of the stop block.
[0036] Furthermore, the stop block is provided with a swing groove, and the end of the drive member is provided on the swing groove.
[0037] As can be seen from the above description, the swingable arrangement of the drive component is achieved by the cooperation between the swing groove on the stop block and the end of the drive component.
[0038] Furthermore, the sides of the transmission parts corresponding to the transmission components abut against each other, and the side of the transmission component that abuts against the transmission parts is an inclined surface.
[0039] As described above, the adjustment of the swinging component is achieved by the transmission component abutting against the side of the transmission part and being guided by the inclined surface of its side.
[0040] Furthermore, the switching structure also includes a gear shift protrusion located on the lower side of the swing member. Two locking points are provided on the lower side of the swing member corresponding to its left and right swing positions. The gear shift protrusion cooperates with the locking points and is pressed against them by a spring.
[0041] As described above, by configuring the gear shift protrusion, locking point, and spring, the spring can drive the gear shift protrusion to engage with the locking point during the user's swing operation, thereby producing a sound and providing a certain gear shift feel.
[0042] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 Embodiment 1 of this utility model is as follows:
[0043] A shower head with a switching structure includes a shower head, a handle, and a switching structure. The shower head has a first water outlet channel and a second water outlet channel, and the handle has a water inlet channel. Both the first and second water outlet channels are connected to the switching structure. The switching structure is located on the handle and connected to the water inlet channel. The switching structure is swayable and can swing left and right to switch between connecting to the first or second water outlet channel.
[0044] The switching structure includes a swing element, a drive element, a seal element, and a gear shift protrusion.
[0045] One end of the swing member is opposite to the first and second water outlet channels, and the other end is connected to the water inlet channel. The swing member has transmission parts on both sides, and the drive member is oscillatingly mounted on the handle, with transmission parts extending from both sides towards the transmission parts. The sides of the transmission parts corresponding to the transmission parts abut against each other, and the side of the transmission member abutting against the transmission parts is an inclined surface.
[0046] Specifically, the inlet end of the first water outlet channel and the inlet end of the second water outlet channel are both provided on the same end of the shower head, and the outlet end of the swing member is located between the inlet end of the first water outlet channel and the inlet end of the second water outlet channel.
[0047] The sealing element is fitted inside the water outlet end of the oscillating element. The sealing element has water outlet holes corresponding to the water inlet ends of the first and second water outlet channels. The side of the sealing element with the water outlet holes faces the water outlet end of the oscillating element and is spaced apart. In this embodiment, the water outlet end of the oscillating element is elliptical, and the sealing element and its water outlet holes are also elliptical. By switching the oscillation, the relative areas of the water outlet holes with the water inlet ends of the first and second water outlet channels are changed, thus realizing the first function of the shower head where the first water outlet channel alone outlets water, the second function where the second water outlet channel alone outlets water, and the third function of the first and second water outlet channels mixing water.
[0048] The shower head has a limiting member on its end corresponding to the inlet end of the first water outlet channel and the inlet end of the second water outlet channel. On both sides of the limiting member are baffles that cooperate with the left and right swing paths of the swinging member. A stop block is provided on the upper side of the limiting member corresponding to the left and right swing paths of the swinging member. The stop block has a swing groove, and the end of the driving member is disposed on the swing groove.
[0049] The gear shift protrusion is located on the lower side of the swing member. Two locking points are provided on the lower side of the swing member corresponding to its left and right swing positions. The gear shift protrusion cooperates with the locking points and is pressed against them by a spring.
[0050] In summary, the shower head with a switching structure provided by this utility model can switch the connection between the inlet channel and different outlet channels through the swing setting of the switching structure to achieve different water output modes; the swing setting of the switching structure on the handle makes it convenient for users to operate quickly with one hand.
[0051] 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.
