Definitions

  • shower heads are fixed head showers, side showers or as hand showers at the end of a hose known. There are different types of rays, which are issued with such shower heads. Are known pulsating rays, ventilated rays and rays that change their amount of water relatively slowly.
  • the invention has for its object to a shower head create a visually appealing and pleasant to feel Spray pattern created.
  • the invention proposes a shower head with the features of claim 1. Training the invention are the subject of the dependent claims, the Wording as well as the wording of the summary Reference is made to the content of the description.
  • the Direction of the axis of the beam outlet opening changed in this way is that it lies at least partially on a cone, especially a circular cone.
  • the axis is such is moved that it lies on a double gel.
  • the invention proposes that the top of the cone be in the area the spray disc lies, so that both the space requirement as well as the appearance for the shower only a little known showers changes.
  • the jet disc has several jet outlet openings, which in any Patterns can be arranged.
  • the drive means can be designed such that it is the direction of the axis of more than one beam outlet changes.
  • some of the jet outlets change direction while other beam outlets unite Always deliver the jet in the same direction.
  • the directions of the Axes of several beam outlets in phase be changed, resulting in an optically closed beam pattern leads.
  • the movement can be designed in such a way that that the cone axis around which the beam swings is perpendicular to the spray disc.
  • the invention proposes the jet outlet opening in a nozzle element which can be pivoted with respect to the jet disk to be arranged so that the change in direction of the Axis by pivoting this nozzle element opposite the spray disc and thus performed against the housing can be.
  • the nozzle element in an opening of the jet disc is stored, in particular the beam outlet end of the Nozzle element. Then the movement of the nozzle element takes place inside the shower head housing.
  • the nozzle element protrudes outwards from the spray disc so that then the movement of the nozzle element is visible from the outside.
  • the Nozzle element in the area of its end facing away from the outlet end rear end in a movable by the drive means Engages disc.
  • all nozzle elements intervene in a common disc, which then, for example is moved eccentrically in a circular motion, without being twisted yourself.
  • each nozzle element is in one disc engages, one around the shower head fixed axis is driven rotating.
  • a turbine can be used for rotating driving.
  • FIG. 1 shows a section through part of a shower head.
  • a jet disc 1 has a slightly convex shape Outside 2, in which several openings 3 can be seen.
  • a cylindrical extension 5 is formed, which has an external thread 6 for screwing into the housing of a shower head.
  • a cap 7 covers, a protruding in the middle of the approach 5 Has shaft 8.
  • An opening 9 is formed at one point through the arrangement the water flowing into the shower head from the outside can flow into the approach 5 inside.
  • the hub 11 On the shaft 8, a turbine wheel 10 is mounted, the one Hub 11 has.
  • the hub 11 is designed as a gear wheel, see also Figure 4.
  • the hub 11 engages with a radial distance through a central opening 12 of a disc 13 which is stationary in the approach 5 of the jet disc 1.
  • the disc 13 has four holes 14 in which bearing approaches 15 of discs 16 are mounted.
  • the disks 16 are with Help of the bearing lugs 15 rotatable relative to the disc 13.
  • the disks 16 have one in the area of their circumference Toothing 17 which engages in the toothed hub 11.
  • Each disc 16 has an opening 18 which is rotated the disks 16 revolves along a circle.
  • Each nozzle element 19 engages with its rounded Front 20 in a funnel-like recess 21 a, which is arranged behind the openings 3.
  • the thickness of the Jet disc 1 is selected in the area of the opening 3 so that the nozzle elements 19 do not slip out of the funnel 21 can.
  • the nozzle element 19 has an axially extending opening 23, the front of which forms the jet outlet opening. About on half the length of the longitudinal extension of the nozzle elements 19 if these are open on the side, see Figure 3, so that the Turbine wheel 10 facing part of the nozzle elements 19 the shape a bracket 24. From the two open sides 25 The water can therefore flow from the shower head into the nozzle elements 19 flow in and leave through the front end.
  • the axis of the openings 23 thus forms the axis, longitudinally which the water jet emanates.
  • FIG. 5 shows the disk 13 arranged in a stationary manner in the housing, which is actually designed as a bike.
  • a ring 26 Around the central opening 12 around a ring 26 is formed, of which four Guide spokes 27 to the outside.
  • Another ring 28 is on the outside arranged, which has a notch 29 at one point.
  • the Notch 29 is used to fix the disc 13 in the correct position Casing.
  • the spokes 27 are approximately in the center in the radial direction Openings 14 arranged the storage for the gears 16 form.
  • the Rotation of the turbine wheel 10 leads to a rotation of the Disks 16 around the fixed axes.
  • the twisting of the Discs 16 leads to the wobbling movement already mentioned of the nozzle elements 19. This means that the direction of the rays emerging from the shower head are continuously changed is, namely in the example shown along one Circular cone, the tip of which lies approximately in the jet disc 1. All nozzle elements 19 are at the same angular velocity emotional.
