Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a bathroom product, and more particularly to a shower head. Background Technology
[0002] Shower heads are primarily used in bathrooms. As a core component of the shower system, the unobstructed flow of water from their orifices directly affects the showering experience and the lifespan of the equipment. However, in actual use, shower head orifices are prone to clogging due to water quality issues (such as calcium and magnesium ion deposits forming limescale), impurities in the water (such as sand, rust, or microbial growth), especially in hard water areas or older water supply systems. Clogged orifices can lead to uneven water flow, dispersed water flow, or even partial flow interruptions, not only reducing showering comfort but also potentially accelerating the aging of the shower head's internal structure due to long-term abnormal water pressure.
[0003] Therefore, the purpose of this case is to provide a spray shower head. Utility Model Content

Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this utility model provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed utility model, but merely to represent selected embodiments of this utility model.
[0028] In the description of this utility model, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature.

[0029] Existing shower heads are mainly used in bathrooms. As a core component of the shower system, the unobstructed flow of water from the shower head's orifices directly affects the showering experience and the lifespan of the equipment. Therefore, to solve the above problems, this paper proposes the following technical solution:
[0030] Reference Figures 1-4 As shown, a shower head includes: a main body formed by a base 2 and a handle 3; a nozzle 1 is installed on the surface of the base 2; an embedded control valve 4 is installed on the surface of the handle 3 to control the water output of the base 2; and a connection port 5 is provided at the bottom of the handle 3. The nozzle 1 includes a limiting cover 11, a rotatable flow plate 12 is installed inside the limiting cover 11, and a fixed flow divider 13 is placed at the rear end of the flow plate 12. The base 2 has a first water outlet 22 and a second water outlet 23, which are respectively opposite to different water inlets of the flow divider 13.
[0031] The main structure of this device includes a handle formed by a base 2 and a handle 3. A nozzle 1 is set at the front end of the base 2 for refining the water flow. A control valve 4 is set on the surface of the handle 3 to control the water flow. By pressing the control valve 4, the water flow can pass through different channels to control the size and direction of the water flow. A connection port 5 for connecting pipes is set at the bottom of the control valve 4.
[0032] The base 2 has a seat body 21 and a first water outlet 22 inside. The first water outlet 22 is mainly used for the transportation of water flow in the middle of the process. When spraying, the surface of the nozzle 1 can pump out a fine water column. The second water outlet 23 on the side is used to drive the fine flow plate 12 to rotate.
[0033] The structure of the nozzle 1 includes a limiting cover 11 for limiting position. The limiting cover 11 includes a cover body 111. A cleaning strip 112 is provided in the middle of the cover body 111. The cleaning strip 112 supports the fine stream plate 12. A return cavity 113 is provided inside the cover body 111. The return cavity 113 is connected to the second water outlet 23 through the flow divider plate 13 to connect the flushing water flow. The fine stream plate 12 is rotated by water drive.
[0034] The structure of the fine flow plate 12 includes a plate body 121, with side flow channels 122 set at the edge of the plate body 121. The surface of the side flow channels 122 is provided with an array of push plates 123. The water flow pushes the push plates 123, causing the plate body 121 to rotate as a whole. A central rod 124 and a limiting pad 125 are set in the middle of the plate body 121. The central rod 124 limits the flow, while the limiting pad 125 is opposite to part of the water flow. When the water flow surges, the plate body 121 can float as a whole, thereby reducing resistance. When the fine flow plate 12 is driven, the protrusions on the surface of the cleaning strip 112 are in contact with the contact surface of the plate body 121. During the rotation, the plate body 121 vibrates continuously, which, together with the surging water flow, enables rapid cleaning.
[0035] The base houses a main water flow channel and an auxiliary drive channel. The first outlet performs the core rinsing function, while the second outlet drives the fine-aperture plate to rotate via directional water flow. This split design enables the combined utilization of water flow energy, ensuring basic rinsing efficiency while achieving self-drive of the cleaning components through a hydraulic transmission mechanism, thus optimizing the functional integration of the equipment.
[0036] The pusher array arranged along the edge of the flow plate forms a hydrodynamic coupling with the side channel. The tangential force generated by the water flow impact drives the plate to rotate, while the central rod limiting structure reduces mechanical friction through a dynamic floating design. This hydraulic transmission system directly converts fluid kinetic energy into cleaning kinetic energy, achieving continuous rotational cleaning without an additional power source and improving the equipment's energy efficiency ratio.

[0038] The above description only outlines the basic principles and preferred embodiments of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can make many changes and improvements based on the above description, and these changes and improvements should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0039] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
