Detailed Implementation

[0038] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0039] This utility model relates to a water outlet device, including a main body 100, a water nozzle 200, a switching component 300, and a drive mechanism 500. The water outlet device can be a shower head, spray gun, overhead spray, waist spray, or other similar products.

[0040] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 10 As shown, the main body 100 can be configured as a cuboid box structure or other shapes. A water nozzle 200 is oscillatingly mounted on the main body 100. The water nozzle 200 can be connected to the main body 100 via a pivot 210, and the water nozzle 200 oscillates relative to the main body 100 around the pivot 210. The number of water nozzles 200 is unlimited; it can be one, two, three, or more. A switching element 300 is mounted on the water nozzle 200 and can rotate relative to the water nozzle 200. At least two water channels 400 are defined between the switching element 300 and the water nozzle 200. Water is sprayed outward from the water nozzle 200 through the water channels 400, and the water pattern sprayed through each channel is different; the water pattern can be a conventional water column, a bulb-shaped water pattern, a particle-shaped water pattern, etc. By adjusting the rotational position of the switching element 300 relative to the water nozzle 200, one of the water channels 400 is selected for water discharge, and the water nozzle 200 sprays out the corresponding water pattern. The drive mechanism 500 is connected to the switching element 300. The drive mechanism 500 is inserted into the switching element 300, and drives the switching element 300 to rotate to select one of the water channels 400 for water discharge. When the water nozzle 200 swings relative to the main body 100, the water nozzle 200 drives the switching element 300 to swing synchronously, and the switching element 300 also swings relative to the drive mechanism 500. The water nozzle 200 may have a sliding groove 220 on its side wall, arranged around its central axis. The switching element 300 has a sliding protrusion 330, which slides in the sliding groove 220. When the switching element 300 rotates relative to the water nozzle 200, the sliding protrusion 330 slides along the sliding groove 220, guiding the rotation of the switching element 300. When the water nozzle 200 swings, the sliding groove 220 drags the locking protrusion 511, thereby driving the switching element 300 to swing synchronously. In use, the user can swing the nozzle 200 to change the water spray direction as needed. Simultaneously, the drive mechanism 500 can rotate the switching element 300 to change the water pattern sprayed from the nozzle 200. Regardless of the position of the switching element 300 as the nozzle 200 swings, the drive mechanism 500 can still rotate the switching element 300 to switch between different water channels 400 for spraying water. The process is very convenient, and the swinging of the nozzle 200 and the switching of the water pattern do not affect each other.

[0041] In one embodiment, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the switching member 300 is provided with a linkage part 310. The linkage part 310 has a insertion cavity 331. In the illustrated direction, the top of the insertion cavity 331 is open and the bottom is closed. A clearance groove 320 is provided on the circumferential side wall of the linkage part 310. The clearance groove 320 can penetrate the side wall of the linkage part 310 along the radial direction of the switching member 300. The number of clearance grooves 320 can be one, two or more. In this embodiment, preferably, the linkage part 310 is provided with three clearance grooves 320, and the three clearance grooves 320 are evenly distributed along the circumference of the linkage part 310. The driving mechanism 500 includes a driving member 510, and a locking protrusion 511 is provided on the circumferential side wall of the driving member 510. The driving member 510 is inserted into the insertion cavity 331, and the locking protrusion 511 passes through the clearance groove 320. The number of locking protrusions 511 is the same as the number of clearance grooves 320. When the drive member 510 rotates, the locking protrusion 511 can move within the clearance groove 320 and move to abut against one side of the clearance groove 320. As the drive member 510 continues to rotate, the locking protrusion 511 pushes the clearance groove 320 to drive the switching member 300 to rotate relative to the water nozzle 200. When the switching member 300 swings with the water nozzle 200, the locking protrusion 511 can swing relative to the clearance groove 320. The locking protrusion 511 can be configured as a spherical protrusion or other structure. In this embodiment, the clearance groove 320 extends in a V-shape along the axial direction of the switching member 300. The clearance groove 320 has a first end 321 and a second end 322 distributed along the axial direction of the switching member 300. In the illustrated direction, the lower end of the clearance groove 320 is the first end 321, and the upper end is the second end 322. The water channel 400 defined between the switching element 300 and the water nozzle 200 is located below the linkage 310, with the first end 321 closer to the water channel 400 than the second end 322. The second end 322 is open, and the width of the clearance groove 320 gradually increases from the first end 321 to the second end 322, that is, the clearance groove 320 is V-shaped and gradually expands from bottom to top. The locking protrusion 511 extends in a strip shape along the axial direction of the drive element 510. The width of the locking protrusion 511 is less than the minimum width of the clearance groove 320. The locking protrusion 511 extends downward from the second end 322 into the clearance groove 320. This allows the lower end of the locking protrusion 511 to approach or abut against the first end 321 when the water nozzle 200 and the switching element 300 swing, and the upper part of the locking protrusion 511 to swing relative to each other between the two sides of the clearance groove 320.

[0042] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the drive component 510 includes a drive shaft 512. A latching protrusion 511 is provided on the drive shaft 512. The bottom center of the insertion cavity 331 has a spherical recess. The top of the insertion cavity 331 is open. The lower end of the drive shaft 512 is spherical. The drive shaft 512 is inserted into the insertion cavity 331, and the end of the drive shaft 512 abuts against the bottom recess of the insertion cavity 331. The end of the drive shaft 512 and the bottom of the insertion cavity 331 form a ball joint connection. During installation, the switching component 300 and the switching component 300 automatically align and position themselves through the end of the drive shaft 512 and the insertion cavity 331, making installation very convenient. Furthermore, during the rotation and swing of the switching component 300, the drive shaft 512 remains in contact with the bottom recess of the insertion cavity 331. The drive shaft 512 presses down on the switching component 300, ensuring that the switching component 300 remains connected to the water nozzle 200 and guaranteeing the stability of the transmission between the switching component 300 and the drive component 510.

[0043] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the drive mechanism 500 also includes a gear 520 and a transmission component 530. The drive component 510 and the gear 520 are coaxially arranged. The gear 520 can be coaxially mounted on the drive component 510 as an independent component, or it can be integrally formed with the drive component 510. The transmission component 530 has a through groove 531. A rack surface 532 is provided on the side wall of the through groove 531. The gear 520 is located in the through groove 531 and meshes with the rack surface 532. The transmission component 530 can translate relative to the main body 100 along the extension direction of the rack surface 532. In the direction shown in the figure, the transmission component 530 is horizontally arranged, the axial direction of the drive component 510 and the gear 520 is vertically up and down, and the extension direction of the rack surface 532 is horizontally oriented left and right. By pushing the transmission component 530 in the left and right direction, the meshing transmission between the rack surface 532 and the gear 520 can drive the drive component 510 to rotate, thereby driving the switching component 300 to rotate. The transmission component 530 can be installed in the main body 100, with a portion extending outside the main body 100 for user-assisted pushing. Alternatively, a through groove 531 can be provided on the transmission component 530, with a knob engaging with the rack surface 532 on the through groove 531. Rotating the knob allows the transmission component 530 to move horizontally. When the gear 520 and the rack surface 532 are engaged, the gear 520 can only rotate within the range of the through groove 531. By setting the length and width range of the through groove 531, the relative movement range between the through groove 531 and the gear 520 can be limited, thereby limiting the travel of the transmission component 530 while ensuring that the gear 520 and the rack surface 532 remain engaged.

[0044] The main body 100 is equipped with multiple water nozzles 200. Each water nozzle 200 is paired with a switching element 300. The drive mechanism 500 includes multiple drive elements 510, which are paired with the switching elements 300. Each drive element 510 is equipped with a gear 520. The transmission element 530 is equipped with multiple through slots 531, and the gears 520 on each drive element 510 are paired with the through slots 531 for transmission. When the transmission element 530 is moved, it drives each drive element 510 and the switching element 300 to rotate synchronously, thereby controlling each water nozzle 200 to switch the water channel 400 synchronously.

[0045] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the main body 100 includes a base 110 and a cover 120, with the cover 120 fitting over the base 110. A water inlet cavity 130 is defined between the base 110 and the cover 120. The cover 120 has a water inlet 121 communicating with the water inlet cavity 130. The water inlet 121 is connected to an external water supply system, and water from the water supply system is supplied to the water inlet cavity 130 through the water inlet 121. A water nozzle 200 is mounted on the base 110 and communicates with the water inlet cavity 130. Water in the water cavity flows through a water channel 400 and is sprayed out through the water nozzle 200. One end of a drive member 510 is rotatably inserted into the cover 120, and the other end of the drive member 510 is inserted into a switching member 300. The drive member 510 is clamped and mounted by the cover 120 and the switching member 300.

[0046] In one embodiment, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10As shown, the water nozzle 200 has a conical water outlet cavity 230 inside. The water outlet cavity 230 has a large opening and a small opening. The diameter of the large opening is larger than the diameter of the small opening. Along the water flow direction, the large opening is located upstream, and the small opening is located downstream. A switching element 300 is installed at the large opening 231, and the switching element 300 rotates relative to the water outlet cavity 230 between a first position and a second position. The water channel 400 includes a first water channel 410 and a second water channel 420. When the switching element 300 rotates to the first position, the first water channel 410 is defined between the switching element 300 and the water outlet cavity 230. Water in the inlet cavity 130 can be sprayed into the water outlet cavity 230 through the first water channel 410, and the water flow is tangential to the water outlet cavity 230. After the water enters the outlet chamber 230, it forms a swirling flow around the central axis of the outlet chamber 230. The swirling flow is ejected outward from the small opening of the outlet chamber 230 in a bulb-like shape, thus forming a bulb-shaped water pattern. When the switching component 300 rotates to the second position, a second water channel 420 is defined between the switching component 300 and the outlet chamber 230. Water from the inlet chamber 130 enters the outlet chamber 230 through the second water channel 420. The water flow is ejected radially along the outlet chamber 230 through the second water channel 420. The water flow directly impacts the side wall of the outlet chamber 230, creating turbulence. As a result, after the water fills the outlet chamber 230, a regular water column is ejected from the small opening.

[0047] Specifically, two opposing first stops 240 extend from the large port 231. A notch 250 is formed between the two sides of the two first stops 240. The notch 250 has opposing first sides 251 and second sides 252. The two notches 250 are arranged radially opposite each other along the outlet cavity 230. The switching member 300 is fitted onto the first stops 240, effectively sealing the space above the outlet cavity 230. The switching member 300 is provided with two second stops 340, which are paired and inserted into the notches 250. The gap between the second stops 340 and the first stops 240 forms a water channel 400. When the switching member 300 rotates, the second stops 340 move within the notches 250. Figure 10 As shown, when the switching component 300 rotates to the first position, the second stop 340 abuts against the first side 251 and forms a first water channel 410 with a gap between it and the second side 252. The notches 250 on both sides cooperate with the second stop 340 to form two first water channels 410. The ends of the two first water channels 410 facing the water outlet cavity 230 are tangential to the cavity wall of the water outlet cavity 230. The two streams of water flowing into the water outlet cavity 230 from the two first water channels 410 flow around the central axis of the water outlet cavity 230 in the same direction (clockwise or counterclockwise), thereby forming a swirling flow. Figure 11As shown, when the switching component 300 rotates to the second position, the second stop 340 abuts against the second side 252 and forms a second water channel 420 with a gap between it and the first side 251. The notches 250 on both sides cooperate with the second stop 340 to form two second water channels 420. The two second water channels 420 are arranged radially opposite to each other along the outlet cavity 230, so that the two streams of water flowing into the outlet cavity 230 from the two second water channels 420 collide to form turbulent flow that fills the outlet cavity 230.
