Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shower head connector technology, and more specifically, to a shower head connector with press-to-jet and rotary flow adjustment. Background Technology

[0002] In modern life, bathroom fixtures have become indispensable products, including bathroom cabinets, faucets and showerheads, toilets, bathroom equipment, washbasins, flush valves, bathroom accessories, bathtubs, shower rooms, saunas, bathroom appliances, bathroom mirrors, and other products. With the progress of scientific development, people have increasingly higher requirements for the quality and functionality of bathroom fixtures.

[0003] Showerheads are common shower equipment in daily life. Currently, most showerhead products on the market are only equipped with a single shower head water output function, which is relatively simple in design but also relatively basic in function. If users need to use high-pressure water flow for bathroom cleaning, they often need to install an additional spray gun device, which is not convenient to use and the cost of installing an additional spray gun device is also relatively high.

[0004] In view of this, a shower product combining a spray gun function has appeared on the market, as shown in the patent document with patent number CN202111485130.5 and title "A Shower Head Mechanism with Spray Gun Switching and Reset Button". The main component has at least a shower water path and a spray gun water path. The main component is provided with a first switching component for switching between the shower water path and the spray gun water path. It also includes a transmission component. The two ends of the transmission component are respectively connected to the first switching component and a pressing component. Pressing the pressing component drives the transmission component to push the first switching component to switch between the shower water path and the spray gun water path. When the first switching component loses pressure, it automatically switches to connect the shower water path.

[0005] However, the above-mentioned showerheads require users to continuously press and hold the spray gun component when using the spray gun function, which is relatively strenuous. Furthermore, adding a spray gun to the showerhead increases its size, makes it more complex and prone to damage, and increases costs. Additionally, since the spray gun function often requires rinsing areas with significant stains, placing the spray gun on the showerhead also increases the likelihood of the showerhead becoming stained by water splashes. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the issues of existing shower heads with spray guns requiring continuous pressing to maintain spray mode, which is laborious, and the integrated spray gun results in larger, more complex, and more easily damaged shower heads, as well as higher costs, and the shower heads are prone to getting splattered with dirt during spray cleaning, we provide a shower head connector with press-to-spray and rotating flow adjustment.

[0007] The shower head connector with press-to-jet rotary flow adjustment includes a connector housing and a switching valve core. The connector housing has a water inlet connector at the bottom, a shower head threaded seat at the top, and a switching valve seat in the middle. The switching valve seat has a spray gun outlet on its side, a water inlet connected to the water inlet connector on the bottom side near the spray gun outlet, and a water outlet connected to the shower head threaded seat on the top side opposite to the water inlet. The switching valve core is sleeved in the switching valve seat. The front end of the switching valve core has a spray gun water channel connecting the water inlet and the spray gun outlet, and the rear end has a shower head water channel connecting the water inlet and the outlet. The rear end of the switching valve core protrudes through the switching valve seat.

[0008] Furthermore, the switching valve core is a horizontally placed, near-cylindrical shape, and the openings of the spray gun water channel and the shower water channel are both provided with water flow regulating grooves along the circumferential side of the switching valve core, the length of which is equal to that of the water inlet.

[0009] Furthermore, a switching knob is provided on the outer side of the connector housing at the rear end of the switching valve core, and a sealing gasket is wrapped on the switching valve core inside the switching knob.

[0010] Furthermore, the outer side of the switching knob is provided with operation markings.

[0011] Furthermore, the front end of the switching valve core is provided with a foaming nozzle, the outlet of the spray gun water channel is connected to the foaming nozzle, and the foaming nozzle is sleeved in the spray gun outlet.

[0012] Furthermore, a sealing gasket is wrapped around the outer rear end of the foaming nozzle.

[0013] Furthermore, a sealing gasket is wrapped around the switching valve core between the spray gun channel and the shower channel.

[0014] Furthermore, the shower head threaded seat, switching valve seat, and water inlet connector are integrally formed.

[0015] The advantages of this utility model are: 1. The shower head and spray gun modes can be switched by pushing and pulling, and the flow rate can be adjusted by rotating, making it convenient and labor-saving to use.

[0016] 2. The equipment is small in size and can be used with different shower heads, making it highly flexible.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, this embodiment provides a shower head connector with press-to-jet and rotary flow adjustment, including a connector housing 1 and a switching valve core 2. The connector housing 1 has a water inlet connector 101 at the bottom, a shower head threaded seat 102 at the top, and a switching valve seat 103 in the middle. The switching valve seat 103 has a spray gun outlet 104 on its side, a water inlet 105 connected to the water inlet connector 101 on the bottom side near the spray gun outlet 104, and a water outlet 106 connected to the shower head threaded seat 102 on the top side opposite to the water inlet 105. The switching valve core 2 is sleeved in the switching valve seat 103. The front end of the switching valve core 2 has a spray gun water channel 201 connecting the water inlet 105 and the spray gun outlet 104, and the rear end has a shower head water channel 202 connecting the water inlet 105 and the outlet 106. The rear end of the switching valve core 2 protrudes through the switching valve seat 103.

[0026] The water inlet connector 101 is used to connect the water supply pipe, and the shower head threaded seat 102 is used to connect the shower head.

[0027] When in use, the user pulls out the protruding part at the rear end of the switching valve core 2 to connect the water inlet 105, the spray gun water channel 201 and the spray gun water outlet 104, and close the shower water channel 202, thereby realizing the spray gun mode with water coming out from the side of the connector housing 1.

[0028] When the user pushes the protruding part at the rear end of the switching valve core 2 inward, the inlet 105, the shower water channel 202 and the outlet 106 are connected, the spray gun water channel 201 is closed, and the shower mode with water coming out from the top of the connector housing 1 is realized.

[0029] The switching valve core 2 is a horizontally placed, near-cylindrical shape. Water flow regulating grooves 203 are provided circumferentially along the side of the switching valve core 2 at the openings of both the spray gun channel 201 and the shower head channel 202. The length of the water flow regulating groove 203 is equal to that of the inlet 105. By rotating the switching valve core 2, the size of the opening connecting the water flow regulating groove 203 with the inlet 105 and the outlet 106 can be adjusted, thereby regulating the water output.

[0030] A switching knob 3 is located on the outer side of the connector housing 1 at the rear end of the switching valve core 2. A sealing gasket 4 is wrapped around the switching valve core 2 inside the switching knob 3. The switching knob 3 allows the user to easily grasp, pull, and rotate the switching valve core 2 to quickly change the water outlet mode. An operation indicator 301 is provided on the outer side of the switching knob 3 to guide the user in switching the water outlet status.

[0031] A foaming nozzle 5 is provided at the front end of the switching valve core 2. The outlet of the spray gun water channel 201 is connected to the foaming nozzle 5, which is fitted into the spray gun outlet 104. The foaming nozzle 5 converts the water flow from a pipe into a linear flow, and then uses air pressure to convert the linear flow into a jet, thereby improving the rinsing effect of the spray gun water. A sealing gasket 4 is wrapped around the rear end of the foaming nozzle 5 to prevent water from leaking through the gap between the foaming nozzle 5 and the spray gun outlet 104.

[0032] The switching valve core 2 between the spray gun channel 201 and the shower head channel 202 is wrapped with a sealing gasket 4 to prevent water from leaking from the connector housing 1 through the other channel after switching the water output state.

[0033] The shower head threaded seat 102, the switching valve seat 103, and the water inlet connector 101 are integrally formed. The shower head threaded seat 102, the switching valve seat 103, and the water inlet connector 1 of the connector housing 1 can be integrally injection molded or cast in metal to ensure structural strength and prevent water leakage.

[0034] During water flow operation, this embodiment has four water outlet states: 1. For example Figure 5 As shown, when the switching knob 3 is pressed all the way down and rotated to minimize the opening connecting the water flow regulating groove 203 and the water outlet 106, it is in the minimum flow state of the shower head.

[0035] 2. For example Figure 6 As shown, when the switching knob 3 is pressed all the way down and rotated, the opening connecting the water flow regulating groove 203 and the water outlet 106 is maximized, which is the state of maximum water flow from the shower head.

[0036] 3. For example Figure 7 As shown, when the switching knob 3 is pulled out and rotated, the opening connecting the water flow regulating groove 203 and the water inlet 105 is minimized, which is the minimum flow rate of water from the spray gun.

[0037] 4. For example Figure 8 As shown, when the switching knob 3 is pulled out and rotated, the opening connecting the water flow regulating channel 203 and the water inlet 105 is maximized, which is the maximum flow rate of the spray gun water.

[0038] The above description is a further detailed explanation of the present utility model in conjunction with specific preferred embodiments. It should not be assumed that the specific implementation of the present utility model is limited to these descriptions. All equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of this application should still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
