Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a bathroom product, and more particularly to a shower device. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, most water spouts used in faucets or showerheads have multiple water outlets. Due to the small size of these outlets, they are difficult to clean and easily accumulate dirt and grime, leading to blockages. Cleaning each outlet individually with tools is not only time-consuming and laborious but can also damage the outlets or even the entire showerhead. Therefore, it is essential to design water spouts that are easy to clean.

[0003] Self-cleaning water nozzles on the market remove scale by controlling the up and down movement of a needle plate, which allows the needles on the needle plate to penetrate into the water nozzle and scrape the inner surface of the nozzle. However, each needle can only work on one nozzle and the nozzle deformation is limited, so it cannot completely remove scale and particulate impurities. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a water outlet component that can increase the descaling effect.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides a water outlet assembly, wherein the water outlet nozzle has at least one water outlet hole on the water outlet side, and a cutting slit communicating with the water outlet hole.

[0006] It also includes a top abutment and a driving component. The driving component is used to drive the top abutment to move toward or away from the water outlet and engage with the water outlet, causing the water outlet to deform or change the degree of deformation, so that the opening of the cutting slit increases as the degree of deformation of the water outlet increases.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment: the number of cuts is less than or equal to the number of water outlet holes.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment: there are six water outlets, arranged at the six vertices of a hexagon;

[0009] The water outlet is divided into two groups along the axis of symmetry of a hexagon, and the cutting slit connects two adjacent water outlets in each group.

[0010] Alternatively, the water outlets are divided into three groups along the circumference of the hexagon, and the cutting slit connects the two water outlets in each group;

[0011] Alternatively, the cut slit connects between two opposite water outlets along the direction of the hexagonal diagonal.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment: there are four water outlets, arranged at the four vertices of a quadrilateral;

[0013] The cutting slit connects the two opposite water outlets along the diagonal of the quadrilateral.

[0014] Alternatively, the water outlet is divided into two groups, and the cutting slit is connected between the two water outlets in each group.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment: the cross-section of the water outlet is circular, elliptical, plum blossom-shaped, or polygonal.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment: the cutting slit is in a closed state or has a certain width in its natural state; the opening of the cutting slit increases with the increase of the pressure inside the water outlet.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment: the abutment is a needle plate, and the side of the needle plate facing the water outlet is provided with a pin for inserting into the water outlet.

[0018] In a preferred embodiment: the driving member includes an operating part and a linkage part, the linkage part being disposed between the operating part and the abutment member to transmit the movement of the operating part to the abutment member, causing the abutment member to move toward the water outlet.

[0019] In a preferred embodiment: the operating part is a button, and the linkage part is a rocker arm; one end of the rocker arm is a pivot end, and the other end is disposed between the button and the top abutment.

[0020] This utility model also provides a water outlet device, which is equipped with the water outlet components described above.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0022] This invention provides a water outlet assembly. A needle plate acts on the water outlet nozzle, allowing the cutting slit to be manually opened. This enables the nozzle to open a large opening with relatively light pressure, facilitating the removal of particulate impurities or scale. Furthermore, the cutting slit of the nozzle automatically opens to release impurities and reduce pressure when the internal pressure of the water outlet device increases, thus reducing the safety hazard of cracking in the water outlet device.

[0037] 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.

[0038] Example 1

[0039] refer to Figures 1-11This embodiment provides a water outlet device, including a spindle 1, a body 2, and a cover 3; the body 2 and the cover 3 are assembled to form the inner cavity of the water outlet device, the spindle is set at the handle of the body 2, and the end of the spindle 1 is exposed outside the body 2 to form a water inlet connector 11.

[0040] In this embodiment, a water outlet 31 is provided on the cover 3. Water flows into the inner cavity from the water inlet connector 11 and then flows out from the water outlet 31. In this embodiment, the water outlet 31 is a water outlet component. The water outlet side of the water outlet 31 has four water outlet holes 311 located at each vertex of a quadrilateral. The four water outlet holes 311 are divided into two groups, and a cutting slit 312 is provided between the two water outlet holes 311 in each group. The opening of the cutting slit 312 increases with the increase of the internal pressure of the water outlet 31, that is, the pressure of the inner cavity. That is, when the pressure of the inner cavity of the water outlet device increases, the water outlet area of ​​the water outlet 31 increases, and vice versa. The purpose of this design is that when the water outlet 31 is clogged with scale or other impurities, the reduced water flow increases the pressure inside the water outlet device. This increased pressure causes the water outlet side of the 31 to expand outward, opening the cutting slit 312. The opened cutting slit 312 increases the water outlet area of ​​the 31, allowing more water to flow out. This quickly drains the water accumulated in the inner cavity and flushes out scale and other impurities through the opened cutting slit 312 and water outlet 311, achieving an automatic impurity removal function. It also prevents the water outlet device from cracking due to excessive internal pressure. Conversely, when the internal pressure is low, it is insufficient to cause the water outlet side of the 31 to expand outward, and the cutting slit 312 will not open. Therefore, water will only flow from the water outlet 311, resulting in a relatively strong water jet, sufficient for daily use. It should be noted that this embodiment takes the cutting slit 312 as closed in its natural state as an example. Therefore, when the pressure inside the cavity is relatively low, no water will flow out from the cutting slit 312. The natural state is the state when the water outlet device is not flowing with water and there is no external force acting on it. As a simple alternative to this embodiment, the cutting slit 312 can also be a slit with a certain width in its natural state, so when the pressure inside the cavity is relatively low, some water will still flow out from the cutting slit 312. The focus of this application is that the opening of the cutting slit 312 increases with the increase of the pressure inside the cavity. Whether the cutting slit 312 is completely closed or partially open under low pressure is within the scope of protection of this application.

[0041] In this embodiment, in addition to increasing the opening of the cutting slit 312 by increasing the water pressure in the inner cavity, a solution is also provided for the user to actively increase the opening of the cutting slit 312 for impurity removal. To achieve the above-mentioned active impurity removal effect, a top abutment 4 and a driving component 5 are also included. The driving component 5 is used to drive the top abutment 4 to move towards the water outlet 31 and engage with the water outlet 31, causing the water outlet 31 to deform or change the degree of deformation of the water outlet 31, so that the opening of the cutting slit 312 increases as the degree of deformation of the water outlet 31 increases.

[0042] Specifically, the abutment 4 is a needle plate, and a pin 41 for inserting into the water outlet is provided on the side of the needle plate facing the water outlet 31. When the pin 41 moves in the direction close to the water outlet 31, the pin 41 moves relative to the water outlet 31, thereby abutting against the end face of the water outlet 31. The force generated by the abutment causes the end face of the water outlet 31 to bulge outward, thus increasing the opening of the cutting slit 312.

[0043] To drive the movement of the abutment 4, the driving component 5 includes an operating part and a connecting part. The connecting part is located between the operating part and the abutment 4 to transmit the movement of the operating part to the abutment 4, causing the abutment 4 to move towards the water outlet. Specifically, the operating part is a button 51, and the connecting part is a rocker arm 52. One end of the rocker arm 52 is a pivot end, pivotally connected to the water distribution body 6, and the other end is located between the button 51 and the abutment 4 to form a movable end. In addition, several protrusions 42 extend from the back of the abutment 4, that is, the side away from the ejector pin 41. These protrusions 42 pass through the water distribution body 6 and abut against the movable end of the rocker arm 52. When the button 51 is pressed, the rocker arm 52 is subjected to force and swings around the pivot end, thereby creating downward pressure on the protrusions 42 of the abutment 4 and driving the needle plate to move.

[0044] It should be noted that this embodiment uses a shower head as an example, and the above-mentioned water outlet structure can be applied to other water outlet devices, such as spray guns, faucets, etc.

[0045] refer to Figures 12-17 As a simple variation of this embodiment, the number of water outlets 311 can be increased or decreased according to actual usage requirements. For example, there are six water outlets 311 arranged at the six vertices of a hexagon. The arrangement of the cutting slits 312 can also be changed arbitrarily. For example, the water outlets 311 are divided into two groups along the axis of symmetry of the hexagon, and the cutting slits 312 are connected between two adjacent water outlets 311 in each group; or, the water outlets 311 are divided into three groups along the circumference of the hexagon, and the cutting slits 312 are connected between two water outlets 311 in each group; or, the cutting slits 312 are connected between two opposite water outlets 311 along the diagonal of the hexagon.

[0046] Alternatively, while maintaining four water outlets 311 arranged at the four vertices of a quadrilateral, the cutting slit 312 can be connected between two opposite water outlets 311 along the diagonal of the quadrilateral; or the number of water outlets 311 can be reduced to two, with the cutting slit 312 connected between the two water outlets 311.

[0047] Alternatively, the number of water outlet holes 311 can be reduced to one, with the cutting slits 312 located on both sides of the water outlet hole 311 and passing through it. Since the cutting slits 312 on both sides of the water outlet hole 311 are connected in a straight line through the water outlet hole 311, in this case, the cutting slits 312 on both sides of the water outlet hole 311 are considered to be combined into one cutting slit 312, and the number of water outlet holes 311 is equal to the number of cutting slits 312.

[0048] Furthermore, refer to Figures 18-20 In this embodiment, the cross-section of the water outlet 311 is circular, but it can also be elliptical, plum blossom-shaped, or polygonal as a simple alternative. Furthermore, water outlets 311 with different cross-sections can also use any number of water outlets 311 arranged in the manner described above and the setting of the cutting slits 312.

[0049] Example 2

[0050] refer to Figure 21 The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the driving member is used to drive the pin 41 of the abutment member 4 to move away from the water outlet 31. Since one end of the pin 41 of the abutment member 4 passes through the water outlet 31 and is fixed together with the water outlet 31, when the pin 41 of the abutment member 4 moves away from the water outlet 31, the pin 41 of the abutment member 4 will also pull the water outlet 31 to deform or change the degree of deformation of the water outlet 31, so that the opening of the cutting slit 311 increases with the degree of deformation of the water outlet 31, achieving the same effect as embodiment 1.

[0051] 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.
