Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to bathroom products, and more particularly to shower devices. Background Technology

[0002] A top-inlet shower rod refers to a shower rod where the water inlet is located at the top. Because the water inlet is relatively high, the switching mechanism needs to be located at the bottom of the shower rod to facilitate remote switching. This lower placement of the switching mechanism makes it easier for shorter users to operate.

[0003] Most existing top-inlet shower rod designs involve directing water flow downwards via a diverter valve after the water enters from the top, before finally guiding it upwards to the overhead shower head. This process of directing water downwards and upwards results in significant water pressure loss, making it unsuitable for areas with low water pressure. Furthermore, to achieve remote switching, the switching mechanism is often complex and difficult to install within the rod, frequently requiring the rod to be disassembled into several sections for separate installation. This often results in numerous unsightly seams and prevents a seamless, integrated design. Utility Model Content

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0024] This utility model provides a remotely switchable shower rod. Since the first water path switching structure is located within the vertical section, and the operating component is located at the end of the vertical section, the first water path switching structure can be installed as a whole from the end of the vertical section.

[0041] To make the technical solution and features of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific examples. It should be understood that these examples are only for illustrating this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. After reading this utility model, any modifications of this utility model by those skilled in the art in various equivalent forms fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.

[0042] refer to Figures 1-16 This embodiment provides a shower device, including a first water outlet terminal 1, a second water outlet terminal 2, and a shower rod 3. Specifically, the shower rod 3 of the shower device has a remote switching function, meaning that the user can switch the water outlet on the shower rod 3 to select either the first water outlet terminal 1 or the second water outlet terminal 2. In this embodiment, the first water outlet terminal 1 is an overhead shower head, and the second water outlet terminal 2 is a handheld shower head. In practical applications, the type of water outlet terminal can be replaced as needed and is not limited to this embodiment.

[0043] To achieve the remote switching function, the shower rod 3 includes: a rod body 31, a first water path switching structure 34 placed inside the rod body 31, and an operating component 32 for operating the first water path switching structure 34; the rod body 31 includes a vertical section 311 and a connecting section 312 connecting the upper end of the vertical section 311 along the axial direction, the first water path switching structure 34 is placed inside the vertical section 311, and the operating component 32 is installed at the lower end of the vertical section 311 along the axial direction and is linked and cooperated with the first water path switching structure 34; the end of the connecting section 312 away from the vertical section 311 is used to install the first water outlet terminal 1;

[0044] The vertical section 311 has an upper water inlet mounting port 3111 and a lower wall mounting port 3112 arranged axially from top to bottom to mount the upper water inlet 37 and the lower wall mounting port 33. A first water outlet channel 3113 is provided between the water inlet 37 and the lower wall mounting port 33 in the vertical section 311. The lower wall mounting port 33 is used to connect to the second water outlet terminal 2 through its outlet end 331. The connecting section 312 has a second water outlet channel 3121. A second water path switching structure 331 is provided inside the lower wall mounting port 33.

[0045] The operating component 32 is used to drive the first water path switching structure 34 to switch from a first position to a second position. When the first water path switching structure 34 is in the first position, the upper water inlet seat 37 is connected to the second water outlet channel 3121, and the second water path switching structure 331 is in a sealed position. The connection between the water outlet end of the lower wall seat 33 and the first water outlet channel 3113 is sealed by the second water path switching structure 331. When the first water path switching structure 34 is in the second position, the connection between the upper water inlet seat 37 and the second water outlet channel 3121 is sealed. During the process of the first water path switching structure 34 switching from the first position to the second position, it drives the second water path switching structure 331 to switch to the open position, opening the connection between the water outlet end of the lower wall seat 33 and the first water outlet channel 3113.

[0046] The shower rod 3 described above, since the first water path switching structure 34 is located within the vertical section 311 and the operating component 32 is located at the end of the vertical section 311, can be installed by inserting the first water path switching structure 34 entirely into the vertical section 311 from the end. This allows the shower rod 3 body 31 to be integrally molded, eliminating the need to divide the body 31 into multiple parts and then assemble the body 31 after installing the first water path switching structure 34. Therefore, the surface of the body 31 is seamless and aesthetically pleasing. Furthermore, the second water path switching structure 331, which enables water output and shut-off at the second water outlet 2, can extend into the vertical section 311 of the body 31 through the lower wall mounting port 3112 provided on the shower rod 3 itself, cooperating with the first water path switching structure 34. This achieves the goal of controlling the second water path switching by operating only the first water path switching structure 34, thus realizing the switching of water output from the two water outlets.

[0047] To achieve water outlet and water stop at the first water outlet terminal 1, in this embodiment, a platform 342 extends radially from the end of the first water path switching structure 34 away from the operating member 32. The platform 342 is provided with a water distribution hole 341 that connects to the upper water inlet seat 37 through the thickness direction. A first valve seat 35 is fixedly provided in the vertical section 311. The first valve seat 35 is provided with a first water outlet hole 351 that connects to the second water outlet channel 3121. When the first water path switching structure 34 is in the first position, the water distribution hole 341 is connected to the first water outlet hole 351. When the first water path switching structure 34 is in the second position, the water distribution hole 341 is offset from the first water outlet hole 351.

[0048] In this embodiment, to further enrich the functions of the shower device, in addition to enabling the switching of different water outlet terminals, it is also possible to switch between different water spray patterns on the same water outlet terminal. Similarly, the first valve seat 35 is also provided with a second water outlet hole 352, and a connecting pipe 3122 is provided in the second water outlet channel 3121 to define a third water outlet channel 3123 within the second water outlet channel 3121. One end of the connecting pipe 3122 is installed on the first valve seat 35 and communicates with the second water outlet hole 352. Thus, by using the operating component 32 to switch the first water path switching structure 34 to the third position, connecting the water distribution hole 341 with the second water outlet hole 352, water can flow into the first water outlet terminal 1 through the third water outlet channel 3123. However, since the second water outlet channel 3121 and the third water outlet channel 3123 are respectively connected to different water outlet chambers of the first water outlet terminal 1, when the water distribution hole 341 is connected to either the first water outlet hole 351 or the second water outlet hole 352, the water flow can be controlled to flow into the corresponding water outlet chamber to form different water spray patterns. In this embodiment, a transition pipe 3124 is installed at the end of the connecting pipe 3122. The transition pipe 3124 has two independent water passages 31241, one of which connects to the third water outlet channel 3123 and the other connects to the second water outlet channel 3121. The first water outlet terminal 1 is connected to the connecting section 312 through the ball head assembly 11, and the ball head assembly 11 is provided with a first water inlet hole 111 and a second water inlet hole 112 respectively corresponding to the two independent water passages.

[0049] To prevent cross-contamination of water, meaning water that should flow into the second outlet 352 would flow into the first outlet 351, a sealing gasket 353 is provided between the first valve seat 35 and the platform 342. The sealing gasket 353 has a first flow passage 3531 and a second flow passage 3532 corresponding to the positions of the first outlet 351 and the second outlet 352. In this way, the first outlet 351 and the second outlet 352 are separated by the sealing gasket 353, ensuring that water flowing from the dividing hole 341 can only flow into either the first outlet 351 or the second outlet 352, thus preventing cross-contamination.

[0050] In order to guide the water flowing into the upper water inlet seat 37 into the water passage and the first water outlet channel 3113, in this embodiment, an upper fixing seat 36 is installed in the vertical section 311 at the position corresponding to the upper water inlet seat mounting port 3111. The upper fixing seat 36 is provided with a water distribution cavity 361 that connects the water distribution hole 341 and the upper water inlet seat 37, and a second normally open hole 362 that connects the upper water inlet seat 37 and the first water outlet channel 3113. In this way, after the water flows into the upper inlet seat 37, it is split at the upper fixed seat 36. That is, the water flowing into the second outlet channel 3121 directly flows into the second outlet channel 3121 or the third outlet channel 3123 through the water distribution chamber 361 and the water distribution hole 341 at the upper fixed seat 36. This makes the water flow path the shortest, and the water does not need to flow downward and then upward after flowing into the rod body 31. This minimizes the loss of water pressure and allows the first outlet terminal 1 to obtain a relatively large water flow even under low pressure.

[0051] To enable water intake, in this embodiment, the upper water inlet seat 37 is connected to the water inlet connector 4; one end of the upper water inlet seat 37 is inserted into the upper fixed seat 36 through the upper water inlet seat mounting port 3111. In this way, the upper water inlet seat 37 and the upper fixed seat 36 are fixedly connected, which also achieves the fixed connection of the water inlet connector 4.

[0052] To achieve the goal of controlling the switching of the second water path by operating only the first water path switching structure 34, the first water path switching structure 34 also includes a reversing element. During the switching process of the first water path switching structure 34 from the first position to the second position, the reversing element abuts against the second water path switching structure 331, and reverses the rotation of the first water path switching structure 34 around its own axis to the movement of the second water path switching structure 331 along its own axis. By controlling the area where the reversing element is located, so that the reversing element and the second water path switching structure 331 do not function when the first water path switching structure 34 is in the first and third positions, the accidental opening of the second water outlet terminal 2 can be avoided. In this embodiment, the reversing element is a cam 343. As the first water channel switching structure 34 moves from the first position to the second position, the protruding part of the cam 343 rotates to the position where it abuts against the second water channel switching structure 331. As the rotation continues, the pushing force between the protruding part of the cam 343 and the second water channel switching structure 331 gradually increases, which can push the second water channel switching structure 331 to move along its own axis.

[0053] In this embodiment, the first water path switching structure 34 includes a first switching shaft 344 and a second switching shaft 345. The first switching shaft 344 is drively connected between the second switching shaft 345 and the operating member 32. The end of the second switching shaft 345 extends radially outward from the platform 342. Thus, the rotation of the operating member 32 is transmitted from the first switching shaft 344 to the second switching shaft 345, thereby driving the water distribution hole 341 on the second switching shaft 345 to rotate, realizing the opening and closing of the second water outlet channel 3121 or the third water outlet channel 3123. In this embodiment, a cam 343 is disposed on the first switching shaft 344.

[0054] Furthermore, the second water path switching structure 331 includes a third switching shaft 3311, the outer wall of which is provided with a sealing ring 3312. When the second water path switching structure 331 is in the sealed position, the sealing ring 3312 fits against the inner wall of the lower wall seat 33 to close the connection between the lower wall seat mounting port 3112 and the water outlet 331. When the second water path switching structure 331 is in the open position, the sealing ring 3312 separates from the inner wall of the lower wall seat 33 to open the connection between the lower wall seat mounting port 3112 and the water outlet 331. In addition, in order to install the lower wall seat 33, a lower fixing seat 38 is installed in the vertical section 311. The lower wall seat 33 is inserted into the vertical section 311 from the lower wall seat mounting port 3112 and fixedly connected to the lower fixing seat 38, thus realizing the fixed installation of the lower wall seat 33.

[0055] To ensure that the second water path switching structure 331 can return to the sealed position to shut off the water flow from the second water outlet terminal 2 when the first water path switching structure 34 leaves the second position, this embodiment also includes a return spring 3313. When the third switching shaft 3311 is in the open position, the return spring 3313 is compressed and accumulates elastic return force. Furthermore, to reduce the force required for the cam 343 to push the third switching shaft 3311, thereby reducing the resistance the user needs to overcome during switching operations and improving the switching feel, [further details are needed]. In this embodiment, the third switching shaft 3311 is provided with a flow channel 33111. The significance of the flow channel 33111 is that a portion of the water flow can enter the sealed cavity 33112 formed between the end of the third switching shaft 3311 and the end of the lower wall seat 33 after passing through the flow channel 33111. This allows the third switching shaft 3311 to be in a state of water pressure balance. When the user operates the cam 343 to push the third switching shaft 3311, they only need to overcome the elastic force of the return spring 3313. This results in a smaller switching force and a better feel.

[0056] To achieve a fixed connection between the first switching shaft 344 and the second switching shaft 345, in this embodiment, the end of the first switching shaft 344 is provided with a first slot 3441 for the second switching shaft 345 to be inserted. The inner wall of the first slot 3441 is provided with a first limiting protrusion 3442. When the second switching shaft 345 is inserted into the first slot 3441, the first limiting protrusion 3442 and the second switching shaft 345 are engaged in a limiting fit around the axial direction of the second switching shaft 345. In this way, the first switching shaft 344 and the second switching shaft 345 are linked in the axial direction, and the rotation of the first switching shaft 344 can drive the second switching shaft 345 to rotate together.

[0057] Since the first water channel switching structure 34 in this embodiment has three positions, it is better to arrange these three positions with a 120° interval between them. However, this leads to a problem: the user needs to rotate the operating component 32 one full turn to switch between the three positions, which can be inconvenient. Therefore, the first water channel switching structure 34 also includes a transmission component 39 connected between the operating component 32 and the first switching shaft 344. This transmission component 39 can achieve a 2x angle magnification effect, that is, if the operating component 32 rotates 60°, the first water channel switching structure 34 can rotate 120°. Thus, as long as the operating component 32 rotates within the range of 0-180°, the first water channel switching structure 34 can rotate within the range of 0-360°.

[0058] To achieve this effect, the transmission assembly 39 in this embodiment includes a drive shaft 391, a central gear 392, a planetary gear 393, and a gear carrier 394 for mounting the planetary gear 393. The central gear 392 is disposed on the outer wall of the drive shaft 391 and meshes with the planetary gear 393. The drive shaft 391 is fixedly connected to the end of the first switching shaft 344 away from the second switching shaft 345. The operating member 32 drives the central gear 392 to rotate through the planetary gear 393. Specifically, the operating member 32 includes an operating member body 321 and an operating member housing 322. A gear ring 3211 that meshes with the planetary gear 393 is provided on the inner circumference of the operating member body 321.

[0059] The operating component housing 322 is fitted over the operating component body 321. Rotating the operating component housing 322 drives the planetary gear 393 via the gear ring 3211, which in turn drives the central gear 392. In this embodiment, the bottom inner wall of the operating component housing 322 is provided with an elongated positioning groove 3221, and the drive shaft 391 has two positioning beads 3911 placed in the positioning groove 3221. When the operating component 32 is in the initial position, the two positioning beads 3911 are located in the positioning groove 3221. When the operating component 32 starts to rotate, due to the large rotation angle of the drive shaft 391, the drive shaft 391 and the operating component 32 move relative to each other, and the positioning beads 3911 move out of the positioning groove 3221. After the drive shaft 391 rotates 360°, the operating component 32 rotates 180°, and the positioning beads 3911 fall back into the positioning groove 3221 and make a sound due to the impact, prompting the user to know that the switch has been completed.

[0060] To achieve transmission between the drive shaft 391 and the first switching shaft 344, the end of the drive shaft 391 is provided with a second slot 3912 for the first switching shaft 344 to be inserted. The inner wall of the second slot 3912 is provided with a second limiting protrusion 3913. When the first switching shaft 344 is inserted into the second slot 3912, the second limiting protrusion 3913 and the first switching shaft 344 are axially limited and engaged. In this way, rotating the drive shaft 391 can drive the first switching shaft 344 to rotate.

[0061] The above is only one specific embodiment of the present utility model, but the design concept of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any non-substantial modifications made to the present utility model using this concept shall be deemed as an infringement of the protection scope of the present utility model.
