Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bathroom technology, and in particular to a shower faucet structure. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, shower faucets have functions such as overhead spray and shower head spray. The corresponding water output is achieved by the setting of components such as overhead spray and shower head. A switch valve core is installed on the faucet body and combined with the switch handle to turn the water on and off and adjust the water temperature and water flow. A water distribution valve core is installed and a switch handle to switch between water output functions and distribute water.
[0003] However, the existing fixed overhead shower setup sprays water downwards from a certain height, and there is only one direction of water flow. The water falling from this height has a certain impact force, making showering uncomfortable and inconvenient to use, which is quite limiting. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the defects of the prior art by providing a shower faucet structure that can adjust the water outlet direction and height of the overhead spray to meet the needs of different users and usage situations.
[0005] The technical solution of this utility model: A shower faucet structure includes a faucet body, a top spray bracket, and a shower head. The faucet body has a first chamber, a second chamber, a cold water inlet channel, and a hot water inlet channel. The first chamber has a cold water inlet, a hot water inlet, and a mixed water outlet. A switch valve is installed in the first chamber. The cold water inlet channel communicates with the cold water inlet, and the hot water inlet channel communicates with the hot water inlet. The second chamber has a mixed water inlet, a shower head outlet, and a top spray outlet. The water outlet is connected to the mixed water inlet. The second chamber is equipped with a switching valve for connecting the mixed water inlet to the shower outlet or the top spray outlet. The top spray bracket includes a first connecting rod and a second connecting rod that are separately set. The first connecting rod is equipped with a top spray nozzle. The first connecting rod is connected to the second connecting rod and rotates with the second connecting rod to adjust the water outlet direction of the top spray nozzle. The second connecting rod is connected to the top spray outlet and rotates with the faucet body to adjust the height of the first connecting rod.
[0006] Using the above technical solution, the rear end of the faucet body is connected to the hot and cold water inlet pipes pre-embedded in the wall via a curved foot. The water flow direction is switched by a switching valve, allowing water to come out from the shower head or the overhead spray. The first connecting rod can rotate 360° relative to the second connecting rod to adjust the orientation of the overhead spray nozzle. The second connecting rod can rotate relative to the faucet body, so that the first connecting rod changes from being located at the top of the faucet body to being located at the front or bottom of the faucet body. The overhead spray is no longer limited to water output at one height or in one direction, making it more practical and easy to adjust without affecting the water output.
[0007] A further feature of this invention is that the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod are connected by a first connector. The first end of the first connector is fixedly disposed inside the first connecting rod, and the second end of the first connector is located inside the second connecting rod and rotates with the second connecting rod. The first connector is hollow to form a first water passage for water supply.

The first end of the second connector is fixedly disposed inside the faucet body, and the second end of the second connector is located inside the second connecting rod and rotates with the second connecting rod. The hollow second connector forms a second water passage for water supply.
[0009] With the above-mentioned further design, the structure is simple, the operation is convenient, and the installation and rotation of each component are easy.
[0010] A further feature of this invention is that the first connector and the first connecting rod are fixedly connected by screws, and a first sealing element is provided between each end of the first connector and the corresponding connecting rod.
[0011] A further feature of this invention is that the second connector is fixedly connected to the faucet body by screws, and the two ends of the second connector are respectively provided with second sealing elements between the faucet body and the second connecting rod.
[0012] The above-mentioned further design ensures a robust connector structure and a good seal between the connector, connecting rod, and faucet body, preventing water from overflowing from the connector.
[0013] A further feature of this invention is that the faucet body is provided with a water outlet pipe and a placement groove for placing a shower head. The water outlet pipe is connected to the water outlet of the shower head. One end of the shower head is threadedly connected to the water outlet pipe, and the other end of the shower head is detachably located in the placement groove.
[0014] With the above-mentioned further design, installation is convenient and quick. The shower head can be used by hand or placed in the placement slot. The opening on one side of the placement slot makes it easy to put the shower head in and take it out, and the opening is smaller than the slot opening to prevent the shower head from falling when placed in the placement slot.
