Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sanitary ware technology, and in particular to a partitioned water outlet structure. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional water dispensing equipment typically offers only one or a few conventional water dispensing methods, such as uniform water flow or a few simple fixed water flow patterns. Furthermore, the water dispensing area on the control panel often lacks detailed zoning design, making it impossible to flexibly adjust the water dispensing mode according to different usage needs. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a partitioned water outlet structure that allows for staggered water outlet in different partitions, thereby achieving different water outlet modes and effects.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the solution of this utility model is: a partitioned water outlet structure, comprising:

[0005] The water outlet body has an internal water flow channel;

[0006] A water guide plate is installed inside the water outlet body. The water guide plate has an independent first water guide channel and a second water guide channel. The inlet ends of the first water guide channel and the second water guide channel can be selectively connected to the water flow channel of the water outlet body.

[0007] The water outlet panel is installed at the water outlet end of the water outlet body and is used to spray water. Several independent first water outlet areas are distributed on it at intervals. The first water outlet areas are connected to the first water guide channel. The area outside the first water outlet areas on the water outlet panel is a continuous second water outlet area, which is connected to the second water guide channel.

[0008] The adjustment component is used to switch the on / off mode of the water flow channel and the first and second water guide channels, thereby switching the different water outlet modes of the water outlet panel.

[0009] Furthermore, the water discharge modes include water discharge from only the first water discharge zone, water discharge from only the second water discharge zone, and water discharge from both the first and second water discharge zones simultaneously.

[0010] Furthermore, the water outlet panel includes a rear base plate and a front cover plate. The front cover plate has a number of water outlet holes that penetrate it, and the rear base plate has a number of water passage holes that penetrate it. The rear base plate is tightly fitted to the rear side of the front cover plate, and the two form the first water outlet area and the second water outlet area.

[0011] Of the water outlet and water passage, the first water outlet and the first water passage correspond to the first water outlet area, respectively, and the second water outlet and the second water passage correspond to the second water outlet area, respectively.

[0012] Furthermore, the rear side of the front cover plate has several independent, closed irregularly shaped protrusions, and the outer periphery of each irregularly shaped protrusion is continuous;

[0013] The outer periphery of the rear substrate is in close contact with the outer periphery of the front cover plate, and the surface of the rear substrate is in close contact with the surface of the irregular protrusion. The area inside the irregular protrusion and the rear substrate form a first water outlet area, and the area outside the irregular protrusion and the rear substrate form a second water outlet area.

[0014] Furthermore, an annular boss is formed on the rear side of the front cover plate for the rear substrate to abut against. The outer periphery of the rear substrate is sealed against the annular boss, and the abutment is positioned by a concave-convex positioning structure.

[0015] Furthermore, the water guide plate is tightly fastened to the rear side of the rear substrate, and a circular groove for embedding the water guide plate is formed on the rear side of the rear substrate, with the front side of the water guide plate tightly embedded in the circular groove.

[0016] Furthermore, an arc-shaped protrusion is formed on the front side of the water guide plate. The area inside the arc-shaped protrusion is the second water guide channel, while the area outside the arc-shaped protrusion is the first water guide channel.

[0017] Furthermore, the total water flow area at the outlet end of the first water outlet zone is smaller than the total water flow area at the outlet end of the second water outlet zone.

[0018] Furthermore, the different sizes of the water flow area at the outlet end of the different first water outlet zones result in different water pressures at the outlets.

[0019] Furthermore, the adjustment assembly includes a water distribution body, a rotating disk, and a drive assembly;

[0020] The water distribution body has a first water distribution channel and a second water distribution channel. The inlet ends of the first water distribution channel and the second water distribution channel are respectively connected to the outlet end of the water flow channel of the water outlet body through the first water distribution hole and the second water distribution hole. The outlet ends of the water distribution channels are respectively connected to the corresponding water guiding channels.

[0021] The rotating disk is rotatably set at the water inlet end of the water distribution body. The rotating disk is provided with a first regulating hole and a second regulating hole that axially penetrates itself. The driving component drives the rotating disk to rotate, so that the regulating hole on it and the water distribution hole at the water inlet end of the water distribution body are in a relationship of overlap, misalignment, partial misalignment and partial overlap.

[0022] After adopting the above solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0023] The water outlet panel is divided into multiple independent first water outlet areas and a continuous second water outlet area, which are staggered. With the adjustment component, the on / off modes of the water flow channel and different water guide channels can be switched to achieve multiple water outlet modes, such as independent water outlet of the first water outlet area, independent water outlet of the second water outlet area, and simultaneous water outlet of both, to meet the usage needs of different scenarios.

[0038] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0039] This utility model provides a partitioned water outlet structure, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, it includes at least a water outlet body 1, a water guide plate 4, a water outlet panel, and an adjustment component.

[0040] The water outlet body 1 has a water flow channel inside. The water outlet body 1 includes, but is not limited to, common water outlet body 1 structures such as shower heads and overhead sprayers. These structures provide a basic carrier for water output. Different types of water outlet bodies 1 can meet the installation and use requirements in different scenarios.

[0041] Regarding water guide plate 4, as Figure 1 As shown, the water guide plate 4 is located inside the water outlet body 1 and is used to guide water to different water outlet areas of the water outlet panel. The water guide plate 4 has independent first water guide channels 41 and second water guide channels 42. The first water guide channel 41 is connected to the water flow channel of the water outlet body 1 through a first water guide port 43, and the second water guide channel 42 is connected to the water flow channel of the water outlet body 1 through a second water guide port 44. Under the action of the adjusting component, the first water guide channel 41 and the second water guide channel 42 can be selectively connected to the water flow channel. That is, the water flow at the outlet end of the water flow channel can be allocated individually to the first water guide channel 41 and the second water guide channel 42, or simultaneously to both, according to actual needs.

[0042] The water outlet panel is installed at the water outlet end of the water outlet body 1 and is used to spray water. For example... Figure 2 As shown, the water outlet panel has several independent first water outlet zones 21 spaced apart, and the area outside the first water outlet zones 21 is a continuous second water outlet zone 22. The first water outlet zones 21 and the second water outlet zones 22 are staggered on the water outlet panel. Each of the first water outlet zones 21 is connected to a first water guiding channel 41, and each second water outlet zone 22 is connected to a second water guiding channel 42, ensuring that the water flow accurately reaches different water outlet zones according to a preset path, thus allowing the water outlet panel to present a staggered water outlet pattern.

[0043] In this embodiment, reference Figure 2 The water outlet panel consists of a rear base plate 3 and a front cover plate 2, which are two independent and detachable components. The front cover plate 2 has several water outlet holes that penetrate through it, which are the channels through which the water sprays out. The rear base plate 3 has several water passage holes that penetrate through it, which are used to allow water to enter the interior of the water outlet panel.

[0044] The rear substrate 3 is tightly fastened to the rear side of the front cover plate 2. To ensure the stability and sealing of the connection between the two, an annular boss 26 is formed on the rear side of the front cover plate 2 for the rear substrate 3 to abut against. The outer periphery of the rear substrate 3 is sealed against the annular boss 26, and the abutment is positioned by a concave-convex positioning structure, which includes a positioning protrusion and a positioning groove.

[0045] A water-permeable chamber is formed between the front cover plate 2 and the rear base plate 3. Within this chamber, a first water outlet area 21 and a second water outlet area 22 are separated by a raised structure. Specifically, the rear side of the front cover plate 2 has several independent, closed irregularly shaped raised walls 25, each with a continuous outer periphery. When the rear base plate 3 and the front cover plate 2 are assembled together, the outer periphery of the rear base plate 3 is in close contact with the outer periphery of the front cover plate 2, and the surface of the rear base plate 3 is in close contact with the surface of the irregularly shaped raised walls 25. This close contact indicates that there will be no leakage under normal use. The area within each irregularly shaped raised wall 25 forms the first water outlet area 21 with the rear base plate 3, while the area outside the irregularly shaped raised wall 25 forms the second water outlet area 22 with the rear base plate 3.

[0046] Of the water outlets and through holes, the first water outlet 23 and the first through hole 31 correspond to the first water outlet area 21, respectively, and the second water outlet 24 and the second through hole 32 correspond to the second water outlet area 22, respectively. Water flows into the corresponding water outlet area through the through hole and then flows out through the corresponding water outlet, i.e., it is sprayed out from the front cover plate 2. In order to achieve more diverse water discharge effects, the through area of ​​these first water outlets 23 can be designed to be not exactly the same, and the through area of ​​the second water outlets 24 can also be designed to be not exactly the same. By adjusting the through area, the flow rate and flow volume of the water can be changed, thereby producing water splashes of different shapes and intensities.

[0047] like Figure 1 As shown, the water guide plate 4 is tightly fastened to the rear side of the rear substrate 3. A circular groove 46 for embedding the water guide plate 4 is formed on the rear side of the rear substrate 3. The front side of the water guide plate 4 is embedded in the circular groove 46, and an air seal is formed between the periphery and the circular groove 46.

[0048] The water guide plate 4 also uses a raised wall structure to separate the two water guide channels. Specifically: Figure 1 As shown, an arc-shaped protrusion 45 is formed on the front side of the water guide plate 4. The area inside the arc-shaped protrusion 45 is the second water guide channel 42, while the area outside the arc-shaped protrusion 45 is the first water guide channel 41. The surface of the arc-shaped protrusion 45 is in close contact with the rear surface of the rear substrate 3. The position of the arc-shaped protrusion 45 corresponds to the position of the second water outlet 24, which is equivalent to using the arc-shaped protrusion 45 to frame the second water outlet 24. This allows the second water guide channel 42 to be connected to the second water outlet area 22, and similarly, the first water guide channel 41 to be connected to the first water outlet area 21.

[0049] The partitioned water outlet structure of this utility model includes at least the following three water outlet modes:

[0050] ① Water only flows out of the first water outlet zone 21: The water outlet body 1 supplies water only to the first water guide channel 41. At this time, the water flows into the first water guide channel 41 from the first water guide port 43. The water flow in the first water guide channel 41 enters each first water outlet zone 21 through the first water passage hole 31, and finally sprays out from the first water outlet hole 23 of the front cover plate 2.

[0051] ② Water only flows out of the second water outlet zone 22: The water outlet body 1 supplies water to the second water guide channel 42. The water flows into the second water guide channel 42 from the second water guide port 44. The water flow in the second water guide channel 42 enters the second water outlet zone 22 through the second water passage hole 32, and finally sprays out from the second water outlet hole 24 of the front cover plate 2.

[0052] ③ Water flows out from the first water outlet zone 21 and the second water outlet zone 22 at the same time: the water outlet body 1 supplies water to the first water guide channel 41 and the second water guide channel 42 at the same time. The water flows out from the first water outlet hole 23 and the second water outlet hole 24 at the same time, following the same water outlet path as the first water outlet zone 21 and the second water outlet zone 22.

[0053] like Figure 3 As shown, from the perspective of a single water outlet, the water-passing area of ​​a single first water outlet 23 and a single second water outlet 24 is the same. However, in the overall layout, the number of first water outlets 23 is less than the number of second water outlets 24. Based on this difference in quantity, the total water-passing area of ​​the first water outlets 23 is smaller than the total area of ​​the second water outlets 24. When the same amount of water is supplied to the first water outlet area 21 and the second water outlet area 22, due to the difference in the total water-passing area, according to the principles of fluid dynamics, the water flow velocity from the first water outlet 23 will be greater than the water flow velocity from the second water outlet 24, thus creating a pressurization effect. This design makes the water jet from the first water outlet area 21 more impactful.

[0054] Furthermore, to further enrich the water flow effect, the water flow area of ​​the first water outlet zone 21 can be adjusted, or the number of water outlet holes corresponding to the first water outlet zone 21 can be adjusted, to achieve different water pressure effects in different first water outlet zones 21. Through this adjustment, when the water from the first water outlet zone 21 impacts the human body, it can produce a massage-like effect, providing the user with a unique experience. The second water outlet zone 22 has a continuous chamber structure, which ensures uniform water flow and consistent water pressure in each area, providing the user with a stable and gentle water flow experience. Through the different water pressure designs of the first and second water outlet zones 21, this zoned water flow structure can meet the diverse water flow needs of users in different scenarios.

[0055] Regarding the adjustment component, it is used to switch the on / off mode of the water flow channel and the first water guide channel 41 and the second water guide channel 42, thereby switching the water outlet mode of the partition water outlet structure.

[0056] In this embodiment, the adjustment assembly includes a water distribution body 5, a rotating disk 6, and a drive assembly 7. For example... Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the water distribution body 5 has a first water distribution channel 51 and a second water distribution channel 52. The inlet ends of the first water distribution channel 51 and the second water distribution channel 52 are connected to the outlet end of the water flow channel of the water outlet body 1 through the first water distribution hole 53 and the second water distribution hole 54, respectively. The outlet ends of the water distribution channels are connected to the corresponding water guiding channels.

[0057] The rotating disk 6 is rotatably mounted at the inlet end of the water distribution body 5, and its surface is in close contact with the water distribution body 5. The rotating disk 6 has a first adjusting hole 61 and a second adjusting hole 62 that axially penetrate it, arranged circumferentially on the rotating disk 6. The driving assembly 7 drives the rotating disk 6 to rotate, causing its adjusting holes to overlap, misalign, or partially overlap with the water distribution holes at the inlet end of the water distribution body 5, thereby switching the water flow channel's on / off mode with the first water distribution channel 51 and the second water distribution channel 52.

[0058] When the rotating disk 6 rotates until the first and second mixing holes 62 on it are completely aligned with the first water distribution hole 53, the water outlet mode at this time is the first water outlet mode mentioned above.

[0059] When the rotating disk 6 rotates until the first and second mixing holes 62 on it are completely aligned with the second water distribution hole 54, the water outlet mode at this time is the second water outlet mode mentioned above.

[0060] When the rotating disk 6 rotates until the first dispensing hole 61 coincides with the first water distribution hole 53 and the second dispensing hole 62 coincides with the second water distribution hole 54, the water outlet mode at this time is the third water outlet mode mentioned above.

[0061] The drive component 7 described in this case can be any drive structure available on the market for use in bathroom water outlet devices; this case does not impose any limitations.

[0062] To further illustrate the various embodiments, the present invention provides accompanying drawings. These drawings are part of the disclosure of the present invention and are mainly used to illustrate the embodiments, and can be used in conjunction with the relevant descriptions in the specification to explain the operating principles of the embodiments.
