Definitions

  • the invention relates to a showerhead assembly for shower facilities with a elongated shower head, which is releasably attached to a holder and a has elongated water outlet surface, wherein the shower head is so narrow that it can be encompassed by one hand, and wherein the elongated water outlet surface comprises a plurality of water nozzle sets for different jet patterns.
  • Such showerhead assemblies are known in a variety of variations. she usually contain a shower head with a handle attached to a holder, especially wall mount, is suspended to the shower head when showering either fixed to the wall as a wall shower or after losing weight as Hand shower to use.
  • the handle of the hand shower is not just one Removable wall holder, but this usually consists of a wall support rod, on which a holder for the shower head in height is adjustable.
  • Such hand showers are constructed relatively bulky in the rule, in particular if they are equipped with several, different jet images, the over a selection member are selectively activated. Such hand showers are from the Users touched almost exclusively on the stalk to the various parts of the body to reach.
  • the selection is made via an axially movable bolt-shaped valve body.
  • the bolt of the valve body However, it is relatively far out of the shower head, since the bolt is a relatively large Hub must perform in order to overcome the existing inside valve paths can. The lateral dimensions of the shower head are therefore relatively high.
  • the water nozzles of the water nozzle sets are preferably on the water outlet surface on one or more circles or on one or more ovals arranged, these circles or oval with the water nozzles preferably are arranged approximately concentric with each other.
  • This embodiment has above all the advantage that in the arrangement of several water nozzle sets for different Jet images the supply of each water nozzle sets from a manifold assembly be realized in a simple way.
  • the water nozzle sets Individually assigned beam supply devices that selectively with Be supplied with water.
  • a selection body is provided via that the beam supply devices are selectively activated.
