All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

Referring to fig. 1, 2 and 3, the present embodiment provides a shower faucet body 100, which includes a valve body 110, a mixing valve core 120 and a water diversion valve core 130.

The valve body 110 may be of an integral injection molded structure. That is, the valve body 110 may be made of any one of polyphthalamide, polyphenylene sulfide, and polybutylene. The polyphthalamide material can still keep enough strength and hardness under high-temperature and high-humidity environment, when the valve body 110 is in a higher-temperature environment, the valve body 110 cannot deform, meanwhile, the polyphthalamide material also has excellent surface glossiness, and can be colored in the manufacturing process to avoid surface spraying, so that the polyphthalamide material is beneficial to reducing the obvious degree of surface scratches and scratches. Furthermore, polyphthalamide materials also have good processability and allow short injection molding cycle times, which can reduce injection molding times; the polyphenylene sulfide also has good heat resistance, the thermal deformation temperature is generally more than 260 ℃, the polyphenylene sulfide can be used in the temperature range of 180-220 ℃, the polyphenylene sulfide also has the advantage of low water absorption, in the long-term use process, because the metal can be corroded by chemical substances in humid air, the valve body 110 is formed by injection molding of a polyphenylene sulfide material, and because the polyphenylene sulfide material has the advantage of chemical corrosion resistance, the valve body 110 can be prevented from being chemically corroded, and the service life of the valve body 110 can be better prolonged. The polybutylene has the advantages of frost resistance, no scale formation and the like, so that the valve body 110 can be normally used in cold weather, scale and the like are not easy to generate in the long-term use process, the ageing resistance is good, and the service life of the valve body 110 can be better prolonged.

In addition, the valve body 110 may be made of polycarbonate, polyethylene, or the like.

Through adopting integrative injection moulding structure, not only can reduce the weight of valve body 110 self, valve body 110 after the shaping need not polish processing and edges and corners burr treatment etc. therefore need not increase extra process flow, and then can reduce the process flow of preparation, the processing of being convenient for, greatly reduced the processing cost, improve production efficiency. Because valve body 110 formula structure as an organic whole, can reduce the quantity of other accessories like this, in addition, in long-term use, reduce user replacement cost, simultaneously, because valve body 110 can not rust, and then can increase valve body 110's service life.

The valve body 110 is provided with a first water inlet 111, a second water inlet 112, and a water outlet portion 115. The valve body 110 is provided with a first mounting portion 113 and a second mounting portion 114 which communicate with each other and are located at both ends of the valve body 110. In this embodiment, the water outlet portion 115 includes a first water outlet 1152, a second water outlet 1153 and a third water outlet 1151 which are disposed on the valve body 110, the third water outlet 1151 and the first water outlet 1152 are coaxially disposed, and an axis of the second water outlet 1153 is parallel to an axis of the first water outlet 1152.

The mixing valve core 120 is a valve core with at least two water inlets, and can be used for mixing different water sources and adjusting the mixing ratio of each water source, the mixing valve core 120 can have the functions of mixing water, opening and closing, and the like, and the mixing valve core 120 can be used for mixing the water sources from the first water inlet 111 and the second water inlet 112 according to a certain ratio. The water diversion cartridge 130 refers to a cartridge having at least two outlets, which can be used to selectively outlet an incoming water source from one of the outlets.

The water distribution spool 130 is provided to the second mounting portion 114, and is configured to selectively communicate with the third water outlet 1151, the first water outlet 1152, or the second water outlet 1153. For example: when the water diversion valve core 130 is connected with the third water outlet 1151, at this time, the water diversion valve core 130 is not connected with the other two water outlets, and the water flow flowing out from the water diversion valve core 130 only flows out through the third water outlet 1151 but cannot flow out from the first water outlet 1152 and the second water outlet 1153, so that the water diversion function of the water diversion valve core 130 is realized.

The mixing valve core 120 is disposed on the first installation portion 113 and is used to selectively conduct or block water flowing to the second installation portion 114, so that water is discharged or shut off through a corresponding water outlet connected by the water diversion valve core 130. The water outlet portion 115 is communicated with the second mounting portion 114, wherein the communication means that the water mixed by the water mixing valve core 120 flows into the second mounting portion 114 and flows to the corresponding water outlet communicated with the water diversion valve core 130 through the water diversion valve core 130, for example, the water diversion valve core 130 is communicated with the third water outlet 1151, and the water mixed by the water mixing valve core 120 flows to the second mounting portion 114 through the first mounting portion 113 and flows to the third water outlet 1151 through the water diversion valve core 130. The blocking means that water in the mixing valve element 120 cannot flow to the second installation portion 114 and cannot flow out from the corresponding water outlet connected to the water diversion valve element 130, so that water is shut off from the corresponding water outlet connected to the water diversion valve element 130.

The shower faucet body 100 provided by the invention is convenient for left and right hand switching operation of a user by respectively arranging the mixing valve core 120 and the water diversion valve core 130 at two ends of the valve body 110. The valve body 110 of the shower faucet main body 100 provided by the invention adopts an injection molding integral molding structure, and the molded valve body 110 does not need to be polished, chamfered and burred, so that the processing difficulty of the valve body 110 can be reduced, the number of accessories can be reduced, meanwhile, the assembly and the use of a user are facilitated, the replacement cost of the user can be reduced in the long-term use process, and in addition, the valve body 110 does not have the problem of rusting.

Specifically, referring to fig. 3, in the present embodiment, the valve body 110 has a major axis direction (X shown in fig. 3) and a minor axis direction (Y shown in fig. 3), wherein the major axis direction refers to a direction in which the length of the entire valve body 110 is longest, the minor axis direction refers to a direction perpendicular to the major axis direction, and the minor axis direction is approximately located on a perpendicular bisector of the major axis (the length of the valve body 110 along the major axis direction). In the present embodiment, the valve body 110 is a tubular structure, and the long axis direction thereof is the axial direction of the valve body 110.

In the present embodiment, the mixer valve core 120 and the water diversion valve core 130 are respectively disposed at two ends of the valve body 110 in the long axis direction. Specifically, the first mounting portion 113 and the second mounting portion 114 are respectively provided at both ends of the valve body 110 in the longitudinal direction, the first mounting portion 113 and the second mounting portion 114 refer to portions of the valve body 110 to which the valve body is mounted, and the first mounting portion 113 and the second mounting portion 114 communicate with each other.

In some embodiments, the first mounting portion 113 and the second mounting portion 114 may not be disposed along the long axis direction of the valve body 110, for example, the first mounting portion 113 and the second mounting portion 114 may be slightly bent with respect to the middle position of the valve body 110.

Specifically, in the present embodiment, the valve body 110 is a substantially cylindrical tube body having a plurality of channels therein, two end surfaces of the tube body are recessed into the tube body to form a first installation portion 113 and a second installation portion 114, the first installation portion 113 is used for installing the water mixing valve element 120, the second installation portion 114 is used for installing the water dividing valve element 130, and the longitudinal cross-sectional shapes of the first installation portion 113 and the second installation portion 114 may be circular, square or other shapes required in practical use. The first mounting portion 113 is sized to fit the outer shape of the mixing valve element 120, and the second mounting portion 114 is sized to fit the outer shape of the water diversion valve element 130. The first mounting portion 113 and the second mounting portion 114 may communicate through a passage provided in the valve body 110. The depth of the two end surface depressions of the pipe body can be set according to actual requirements, for example, the depth of the two end surface depressions of the pipe body can be more than 1/2 of the whole length of the valve core.

During assembly, the mixing valve core 120 is assembled to the first installation part 113, and the water diversion valve core 130 is assembled to the second installation part 114. Because at least part of the mixing valve core 120 and the water diversion valve core 130 extend into the installation part, the length of the valve body 110 in the long axis direction can be reduced, and the valve core can not occupy the positions of the water outlet part 115 and the water inlet.

The water inlet and outlet portions 115 are provided by providing the mixing valve element 120 and the water distribution valve element 130 at both ends of the valve body 110, respectively, such that the valve body 110 has a mounting position with a sufficient length.

In some applications, when the shower faucet body 100 is installed on a wall, the long axis of the valve body 110 is substantially parallel to the ground and the wall, and the water diversion valve core 130 and the water mixing valve core 120 are close to the left and right hands of a user, so that the user can operate the shower faucet body with both hands conveniently.

Referring to fig. 4, in the present embodiment, the valve body 110 is provided with a communication channel 117 along the long axis direction of the valve body 110, that is, the arrangement direction of the communication channel 117 is parallel to the long axis direction of the valve body 110, the communication channel 117 communicates with the first installation portion 113 and the second installation portion 114, and the water mixed by the water mixing valve 120 directly flows to the second installation portion 114 along the communication channel 117 and enters the water splitting valve 130.

Through setting up the long axis direction with intercommunication passageway 117 along valve body 110, can both reduce the distance that rivers flowed through, optimize waterway structure, the processing of being convenient for again. The cross-sectional shape of the communication passage 117 may be circular, square, oval or other practical shapes, and preferably, the cross-sectional shape of the communication passage 117 is circular in consideration of the difficulty of injection molding, water passage resistance, structural strength and the like. The inner diameter of the communication passage 117 may be uniformly or non-uniformly sized in the long axis direction of the valve body 110.

In some embodiments, the inner diameter dimension of the communication passage 117 is smaller than the inner diameter dimension of the first mounting portion 113 and the inner diameter dimension of the second mounting portion 114. The water diversion valve core 130 and the water mixing valve core 120 with larger specifications can be assembled conveniently, and it can be understood that the water mixing valve core 120 with larger specifications can accommodate more water flow for mixing at one time, and similarly, the water diversion valve core 130 with larger specifications can accommodate more water flow at one time, so that more water flow can flow out from the water outlet.

Referring to fig. 5 and fig. 6, in the present embodiment, the first water inlet 111 and the second water inlet 112 both face the same side of the valve body 110, and the axis of the first water inlet 111 and the axis of the second water inlet 112 are both substantially perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the communication channel 117, that is, the axis of the first water inlet 111 and the axis of the second water inlet 112 are both substantially perpendicular to the long axis direction of the valve body 110. The first water inlet 111 is closer to the second installation portion 114 than the second water inlet 112, that is, the first water inlet 111 is closer to the water diversion spool 130 than the second water inlet 112; the second water inlet 112 is closer to the first mounting portion 113 than the first water inlet 111, that is, the second water inlet 112 is closer to the mixer cartridge 120 than the first water inlet 111, so that the water flow of the second water inlet 112 flows into the first mounting portion 113 quickly.

The first water inlet 111 and the second water inlet 112 can be used for supplying different water sources, as a conventional design example meeting the national standard, the first water inlet 111 is used for supplying hot water, the second water inlet 112 is used for supplying cold water, the hot water is more water sources flowing out of indoor hot water equipment, the cold water is actually a water source with a lower temperature relative to the hot water, and more water sources introduced from a tap water pipe are daily used. The hot water flowing in through the first water inlet 111 and the cold water flowing in through the second water inlet 112 flow into the mixer valve core 120 in a certain ratio to be mixed, and the mixed water flowing out of the mixer valve core 120 flows directly to the second installation part 114 along the communication channel 117 and flows into the water diversion valve core 130. The above is merely an example, and the water source flowing into the first and

second water inlets

111 and 112 is not strictly limited.

In some embodiments, the first water inlet 111 and the second water inlet 112 may be symmetrically disposed about the short axis direction as a symmetry axis, and the symmetrical structure may simplify the structure of the valve body 110, so as to facilitate injection molding. When the first water inlet 111 and the second water inlet 112 are respectively communicated with the water outlet pipe on the wall, the two ends of the shower faucet main body 100 are respectively fixed with the wall.

In some embodiments, the axial direction of the first water inlet 111 and the axial direction of the second water inlet 112 may not be completely parallel. For example: the angle formed by the axial direction of the first water inlet 111 and the axial direction of the second water inlet 112 may be slightly smaller than 90 degrees.

Referring to fig. 5 and 6, in the present embodiment, the valve body 110 is provided with a first water inlet path 1161 and a second water inlet path 1162, the first water inlet path 1161 is communicated with the first water inlet 111 and the first mounting portion 113, the second water inlet path 1162 is communicated with the second water inlet 112 and the first mounting portion 113, and the second water inlet path 1162 is arranged in a direction substantially perpendicular to the long axis direction of the valve body 110, so that the water flowing from the second water inlet 112 can directly flow into the mixing valve core 130, and the flowing distance of the water can be reduced.

Referring to fig. 5 and 6, in the present embodiment, the shower faucet body 100 includes a connection pipe 116, an axial direction of the connection pipe 116 is substantially parallel to a long axis direction of the valve body 110, the connection pipe 116 and the valve body 110 are integrally formed, and the connection pipe 116 communicates the first water inlet 111 and the first installation portion 113. Specifically, the first water inlet path 1161 is formed by communicating a first sub-path, a second sub-path, and a third sub-path, wherein the connection pipe 116 constitutes the first sub-path, the second sub-path is disposed along the axial direction of the valve body 110 and communicates with the first mounting portion 113, and the third sub-path communicates the first sub-path and the second sub-path, wherein the third sub-path substantially directly communicates the first sub-path and the second sub-path. Since the connection tube 116 constitutes a part of the first water inlet path 1161 and the connection tube 116 is disposed along the axial direction of the connection tube 116, the water flow through the connection tube 116 can directly flow into the valve body 110, which can reduce the deposition or generation of dirt (e.g., scale).

Referring to fig. 4 and 7, in the present embodiment, the valve body 110 is provided with a first water outlet path 1181, a second water outlet path 1182 and a third water outlet path 1183, which are selectively connected through the water diversion valve core 130, wherein the first water outlet path 1181 is communicated with the second mounting portion 114 and the third water outlet 1151, the second water outlet path 1182 is communicated with the second mounting portion 114 and the first water outlet 1152, and the third water outlet path 1183 is communicated with the second mounting portion 114 and the second water outlet 1153.

Further, in the present embodiment, the first outlet water path 1181, the second outlet water path 1182, and the third outlet water path 1183 are all disposed along the long axis direction of the valve body 110. Therefore, the distance of each water outlet waterway can be shortened as much as possible, and meanwhile, the water flowing out of the water diversion valve core 130 can directly flow out of the water outlet through the water outlet waterway correspondingly communicated with the water diversion valve core, so that the structural design of the waterway is optimized.

In some embodiments, the first, second, and

third effluent waterways

1181, 1182, 1183 may be slightly curved.

In this embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, the first and

second water outlets

1152 and 1153 are oriented in the same direction, that is, the first and

second water outlets

1152 and 1153 are both oriented toward the same side of the valve body 110, and the third water outlet 1151 is oriented opposite to the first water outlet 1152, that is, the third water outlet 1151 is oriented toward the other side of the valve body 110. As an example: in some applications, when the shower faucet body 100 is installed on a wall and the long axis of the shower faucet body 110 is substantially parallel to the ground, the first and

second water outlets

1152 and 1153 may face the ground and the third water outlet 1151 may face the ceiling, so that water flows out from different directions to meet different use requirements of users.

In some embodiments, the centers of the third water outlet 1151 and the first water outlet 1152 are both located on a perpendicular bisector of the long axis direction of the valve body 110, that is, a connecting line between the center of the third water outlet 1151 and the center of the first water outlet 1152 is substantially coincident with the perpendicular bisector of the valve body 110, and since the third water outlet 1151 and the first water outlet 1152 are both located at the middle position of the valve body 110, the distance between the first effluent water path 1181 and the second effluent water path 1182 can be simultaneously reduced. Further, the second water outlet 1153 may be closer to the water dividing valve core 130 than the mixing valve core 120, so that the water flowing out of the water dividing valve core 130 quickly flows out of the second water outlet 1153. By reducing the overall length of the third water outlet 1151, the first water outlet 1152 and the second water outlet 1153 from the second mounting portion 114, the overall length of the water outlet waterway is further reduced, the structural distribution of the three water outlet waterways is further optimized, and the implementation difficulty of the injection molding process is reduced.

In the present embodiment, the mixer valve cartridge 120 and the water diversion valve cartridge 130 are fitted to the first mounting portion 113 and the second mounting portion 114, respectively.

The mixing valve core 120 may be a push-type valve core or a rotary valve core, that is, a user may open or close the mixing valve core 120 by pressing or rotating.
