Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bathroom accessories technology, and in particular to a shower manifold. Background Technology

[0002] The most common water outlet structure in existing showers is one inlet and two outlets, but in practice only one outlet is used. Therefore, it is necessary to switch between the two outlets, and diverters are widely used in showers. Chinese patent application number 201810026978.3 discloses a diverter, including a mounting base fixed to a wall at one end, an annular groove on the outer periphery of the other end of the mounting base, and a rotating body that can rotate around the mounting base. An inlet connector is mounted on the rotating body and communicates with the annular groove. The diverter is connected to the side of the other end of the mounting base, and an outlet connected to the inlet channel of the diverter is located at the bottom of the annular groove. The diverter disclosed in this patent has a complex structure, many components, and high cost.

[0003] Therefore, the defects are very obvious, and a solution is urgently needed. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a shower manifold.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A shower manifold includes a housing and a manifold core embedded within the housing. One side of the housing has an inlet pipe and a first outlet pipe, while the other side has a second outlet pipe. One end face of the manifold core has a recessed mounting cavity containing a switching valve. A second outlet groove and a second outlet hole communicating with the second outlet groove are recessed on one outer side of the middle portion of the manifold core. Another inlet groove and an inlet hole communicating with the inlet groove are recessed on the other outer side of the middle portion of the manifold core. A first outlet groove is recessed on the outer wall of the other end of the manifold core. Three sealing rings are spaced apart on the outer wall of the manifold core. The second outlet groove and the inlet groove are located between two adjacent sealing rings, and the first outlet groove is located between two adjacent sealing rings. The sealing rings seal the manifold core and the housing. The gap between the inner walls of the outer shell and the inner wall of the second water outlet groove form a second water outlet cavity, the inner wall of the outer shell and the inner wall of the first water outlet groove form a first water outlet cavity, the inner wall of the outer shell and the water inlet groove form a water inlet cavity, the first water outlet cylinder is connected to the first water outlet cavity, the second water outlet cylinder is connected to the second water outlet cavity, and the water inlet cylinder is connected to the water inlet cavity. The inner core of the diverter is provided with an inlet channel, a first water outlet channel and a second water outlet channel. The two ends of the first water outlet channel are respectively connected to the outlet of the valve core of the switching valve and the first water outlet cavity. The two ends of the second water outlet channel are respectively connected to the outlet of the other valve core of the switching valve and the second water outlet hole. The two ends of the inlet channel are respectively connected to the inlet hole and the inlet of the valve core of the switching valve. The valve core of the switching valve is used to control the opening and closing of the inlet channel and the first water outlet channel or the second water outlet channel.

[0006] Furthermore, a switching knob is rotatably connected to one end of the outer casing, and the switching knob is fixedly connected to the valve core shaft of the switching valve.

[0007] Furthermore, a cartridge ring is protruding from the center of the inner wall of the switching knob, and a locking hole is provided in the radial direction of the cartridge ring. A locking bolt is threaded into the locking hole. After the valve core of the switching valve is inserted into the cartridge ring, the locking bolt locks the valve core of the switching valve in the cartridge ring.

[0008] Furthermore, the outer peripheral wall of the switching knob is provided with a screw-through hole, which is coaxially arranged with the locking hole, and a cover is detachably installed on the screw-through hole.

[0009] Furthermore, the second water outlet is threadedly connected to a water outlet connector, which is embedded inside the second water outlet cylinder, with the interface of the water outlet connector extending out of the second water outlet cylinder.

[0010] Furthermore, the outer wall of the water outlet connector is sealed to the inner wall of the second water outlet cylinder via a sealing ring.

[0011] Furthermore, both the outer wall of the first water outlet cylinder and the outer wall of the water inlet cylinder are provided with external threads.

[0012] Furthermore, a partition plate is provided in the middle of the diversion core, and the first and second water outlet channels are located on both sides of the partition plate, respectively. The partition plate is sealed to the inner wall of the outer shell.

[0013] Furthermore, an installation structure is provided on the other end face of the shunt core.

[0014] Furthermore, the shower manifold also includes a threaded sleeve, which is located at one end of the manifold core. The threaded sleeve is used to limit the switching valve within the mounting cavity, and the valve core of the switching valve extends out of the threaded sleeve.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: In practical applications, water enters from the inlet cylinder. The valve core of the switching valve controls whether the inlet channel is connected to the first outlet channel or the second outlet channel, or whether both the first and second outlet channels are closed, thus controlling whether water flows out from the first outlet cylinder, the second outlet cylinder, or even whether no water flows out from either outlet cylinder, thereby achieving switching and control of water flow. This utility model forms three water chambers (first outlet chamber, second outlet chamber, and inlet chamber) through the outer shell, the diverter core, and three sealing rings, reducing the number of water nozzles required and saving the sealing structure needed for nozzle connection, resulting in a simple structure and low cost.

[0022] To facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, the present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments and accompanying drawings. The content mentioned in the embodiments is not intended to limit the present invention.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model provides a shower manifold, which includes a housing 1 and a manifold core 2 embedded in the housing 1. A water inlet cylinder 3 and a first water outlet cylinder 4 are provided on one side of the housing 1, and a second water outlet cylinder 5 is provided on the other side of the housing 1. A mounting cavity 6 is recessed at one end face of the manifold core 2, and a switching valve 7 is installed in the mounting cavity 6. A second water outlet groove 8 and a second water outlet hole 9 communicating with the second water outlet groove 8 are recessed on one outer side of the middle portion of the manifold core 2. A water inlet groove 10 and a water inlet hole 11 communicating with the water inlet groove 10 are recessed on the other outer side wall of the manifold core 2. A first water outlet groove 12 is recessed on the outer side wall of the other end of the manifold core 2. Three sealing rings 13 are fitted at intervals on the outer side wall of the manifold core 2. The second water outlet groove 8 and the water inlet groove 10 are located between two adjacent sealing rings 13, and the first water outlet groove 12 is located between two adjacent sealing rings 13. The sealing rings 13 are used to seal the manifold core. The gap between the inner core 2 and the inner wall of the outer shell 1; the inner wall of the outer shell 1 and the inner wall of the second water outlet trough 8 form a second water outlet cavity; the inner wall of the outer shell 1 and the inner wall of the first water outlet trough 12 form a first water outlet cavity; the inner wall of the outer shell 1 and the water inlet trough 10 form a water inlet cavity; the first water outlet cylinder 4 communicates with the first water outlet cavity; the second water outlet cylinder 5 communicates with the second water outlet cavity; the water inlet cylinder 3 communicates with the water inlet cavity; the inner core 2 is provided with a water inlet channel 14, a first... The first water outlet 15 and the second water outlet 16 are connected at both ends to the valve core outlet of the switching valve 7 and the first water outlet chamber, respectively. The second water outlet 16 is connected at both ends to the other valve core outlet and the second water outlet 9 of the switching valve 7, respectively. The inlet water channel 14 is connected at both ends to the inlet water outlet 11 and the valve core inlet of the switching valve 7, respectively. The valve core of the switching valve 7 is used to control the opening and closing of the inlet water channel 14 and the first water outlet 15 or the second water outlet 16.

[0024] In practical applications, water enters through the inlet cylinder 3. The valve core of the switching valve 7 controls whether the inlet channel 14 is connected to the first outlet channel 15 or the second outlet channel 16, or whether both the first outlet channel 15 and the second outlet channel 16 are closed. This controls whether water flows out from the first outlet cylinder 4 or the second outlet cylinder 5, or whether no water flows out from either the first outlet cylinder 4 or the second outlet cylinder 5, thus achieving switching and control of water flow. This utility model forms three water chambers (first outlet chamber, second outlet chamber, and inlet chamber) through the outer shell 1, the diverting inner core 2, and three sealing rings 13, reducing the number of water nozzles required and saving the sealing structure needed for nozzle connection, resulting in a simple structure and low cost.

[0025] In this embodiment, a switching knob 17 is rotatably connected to one end of the outer casing 1, and the switching knob 17 is fixedly connected to the valve core shaft of the switching valve 7. The switching knob 17 is designed to facilitate user control of the switching valve 7.

[0026] In this embodiment, a mounting ring 18 protrudes from the center of the inner wall of the switching knob 17, and a locking hole 19 is radially formed in the mounting ring 18. A locking bolt 20 is threaded into the locking hole 19. After the valve spindle of the switching valve 7 is inserted into the mounting ring 18, the locking bolt 20 locks the valve spindle of the switching valve 7 into the mounting ring 18. This structural design ensures a secure connection between the switching knob 17 and the valve spindle of the switching valve 7.

[0027] In this embodiment, the outer peripheral wall of the switching knob 17 is provided with a screw-through hole 21, which is coaxially arranged with the locking hole 19. A cover 22 is detachably installed on the screw-through hole 21. In practical applications, when it is necessary to tighten the locking bolt 20, the cover 22 is opened, and tools such as screwdrivers are inserted into the screw-through hole 21 and aligned with the locking bolt 20 to tighten the locking bolt 20.

[0028] In this embodiment, the second water outlet 9 is threadedly connected to a water outlet connector 23, which is embedded inside the second water outlet cylinder 5, with the interface of the water outlet connector 23 extending outside the second water outlet cylinder 5. This structural design allows the water outlet connector 23 to connect to an external structure.

[0029] In this embodiment, the outer wall of the water outlet connector 23 is sealed to the inner wall of the second water outlet cylinder 5 via a sealing ring 24. The sealing ring 24 is used to seal the gap between the outer wall of the water outlet connector 23 and the inner wall of the second water outlet cylinder 5.

[0030] In this embodiment, both the outer wall of the first water outlet cylinder 4 and the outer wall of the water inlet cylinder 3 are provided with external threads 25. This structural design facilitates the connection of the first water outlet cylinder 4 and the water inlet cylinder 3 to external structures, respectively.

[0031] In this embodiment, a partition plate 26 is provided in the middle of the inner core 2, and the first water outlet 12 and the second water outlet 8 are located on both sides of the partition plate 26, respectively. The partition plate 26 is sealed to the inner wall of the outer shell 1. This structural design ensures that the first water outlet 12 and the second water outlet 8 are not connected.

[0032] In this embodiment, a mounting structure 27 is provided on the other end face of the diverter core 2. In practical applications, the diverter core 2 and this utility model are mounted on an external structure using the mounting structure 27 (e.g., screws).

[0033] In this embodiment, the shower manifold also includes a threaded sleeve 28, which is located at one end of the manifold inner core 2. The threaded sleeve 28 is used to limit the switching valve 7 within the mounting cavity 6, and the valve core shaft of the switching valve 7 extends out of the threaded sleeve 28. This structural design not only facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the switching valve 7 and the manifold inner core 2, but also ensures the firmness of the switching valve 7 installed in the mounting cavity 6 of the manifold inner core 2.

[0034] All technical features in this embodiment can be freely combined according to actual needs.

[0035] The above embodiments are preferred implementations of this utility model. In addition, this utility model can also be implemented in other ways. Any obvious substitutions without departing from the concept of this technical solution are within the protection scope of this utility model.
