Definitions

  • the invention relates to a shower head according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a shower head is in the DE 30 03 784 A1 disclosed.
  • the local shower head has a single rotatable jet outlet element in the form of a nozzle centrally held on a one-piece showerhead housing with a plurality of nozzle openings.
  • a shower head in which a turbine is arranged, which leads to a periodic movement of the jet outlet body relative to the showerhead housing. Between the turbine and the jet outlet body, a reduction gear can be arranged.
  • EP 0 563 595 A1 not suitable as a shower head rotor nozzle for a high-pressure cleaner, which has two rotatably mounted jet outlet elements and a water-driven drive means in a housing, wherein between the drive and the jet outlet elements, a reduction gear is arranged.
  • the invention is based on the object to provide a shower head of the type mentioned, a moving spray pattern with a clearly visible To generate motion form and compared to the above-mentioned prior art, the realization of variable jet images allows and can be produced with relatively little effort.
  • the invention proposes a shower head with the features mentioned in claim 1. Further developments of the invention are the subject of dependent claims.
  • the shower head proposed by the invention includes a showerhead housing into which a water inlet leads.
  • the shower head is closed on the intended for use side of a beam exit surface, which is formed by a beam bottom of the housing.
  • In the showerhead housing there is at least one jet outlet element which discharges the shower water from the jet exit surface.
  • the jet outlet element is rotatably mounted in the housing. It is rotated by a drive device which is driven by the flowing water. Between the drive and the jet outlet element, a reduction gear is arranged, so that the jet outlet element accordingly rotates relatively slowly.
  • the beam pattern that emits the beam exit element changes in such a way that the user can clearly perceive it. Thus, it is not intended to generate a pulsating beam, but rather a beam changing in its direction or course, in which this change can also be visually perceived by the user.
  • the at least one jet outlet element can be arranged in the showerhead housing in such a way that it can not be regarded as a part that is specifically recognizable in its function. In particular, it does not need to protrude significantly from the showerhead housing, since the optical effect to be recognized by the user should be noticeable on the spray pattern alone.
  • a worm gear is used as a reduction gear, which should ensure that the jet outlet elements rotate relatively slowly. This makes it possible that the worm of this worm gear directly with a Beam outlet element is operatively connected, for example, engages in a ring gear of the jet outlet element.
  • an upper housing part On an inner surface of the jet bottom, an upper housing part is placed, which leaves a water-bearing cavity and secures against axial displacement of the at least one jet outlet element.
  • the jet outlet element has at least one passage which is arranged eccentrically and / or obliquely to the axis of rotation of the rotatably mounted jet outlet element.
  • the jet outlet element has at least one passage which is arranged eccentrically and / or obliquely to the axis of rotation of the rotatably mounted jet outlet element.
  • the showerhead housing has a plurality of jet outlet elements, of which preferably all are driven by the drive device. It would also be conceivable to arrange a plurality of jet outlet elements, one of which is fixed, for example, while the others are driven.
  • the shower head according to the invention can also have, in a further development, a plurality of passages in at least one jet outlet element which are arranged eccentrically and / or obliquely to the axis of rotation.
  • the axes of rotation of at least two jet outlet elements do not run parallel to one another but enclose an angle other than 0 ° with one another. This can be a very small angle.
  • jet outlet elements are rotationally driven in the opposite direction.
  • jet outlet elements are driven at different peripheral speed.
  • the screw is directly connected to a turbine that belongs to the drive device.
  • the water inlet takes place laterally in the showerhead housing, in particular transversely to the axis of rotation of the jet outlet element. It may be provided that the turbine is arranged in this lateral water inlet.
  • the use of a side inlet makes it possible to form the shower head as a hand shower. Then, the inlet in the usual way by the handle respectively. But even with an overhead shower, the side inlet can cause the showerhead housing is relatively flat, with the lateral inlet can serve to attach the showerhead housing here.
  • FIG. 1 shows in a perspective view a shower head according to the invention.
  • the shower head includes a showerhead housing 1, formed in the example shown as a cylinder. Radially to the cylinder axis of the shower head housing 1, an inlet housing 2 is attached, which has the connection for a water pipe, a hose or the like in a free end face 3.
  • end face of the showerhead housing 1 forms the user facing the beam exit surface 4.
  • four openings 5 are arranged, through each of which a jet outlet element 6 can be seen.
  • Each of these jet outlet elements 6 has a plurality of jet outlet openings 7, which are indicated here only schematically.
  • FIG. 2 now shows a cross section through the inlet housing 2.
  • an annular space 8 is formed, within which an inner housing 9 is arranged.
  • the inflowing into the inlet housing 2 Water first passes into this annulus 8.
  • a turbine 10 is rotatably mounted with individual wings 11. From the annular space 8, in the illustrated example, three inlet openings 12 lead obliquely into the interior of the inner housing 9, so that the water flowing out of the annular space 8 through the inlet openings 12 strikes the wings 11 and thereby causes the turbine 10 to rotate.
  • the wings 11 of the turbine 10 are formed on a shaft 13 which extends transversely through the showerhead housing 1 and is mounted at its opposite end 14 in the shower head. This is in the cut of FIG. 3 to see, to which reference is now made.
  • the shaft 13 is formed as a worm of a worm gear. It passes through a cavity 15 in the shower head.
  • a plurality of jet outlet elements 6 are arranged, namely rotatable. The type of storage will be explained below.
  • the jet outlet elements have on their directed into the interior of the showerhead housing 1 end of a sprocket 16, which are in engagement with the worm of the shaft 13.
  • the turbine 10 driving water passes through a bottom of the inner housing 9 in the interior of the showerhead housing 1 and from there through the openings 7 of the jet outlet elements 6 into the open. You can do that FIG. 3 already deduce that the openings through the jet outlet elements 6 are oblique.
  • the shaft 13 is not only supported at its end facing away from the rotor 10 14 , but also between the rotor and the screw section in a front bearing 17.
  • the shower head housing has a jet outlet surface 4 forming the beam bottom 18, which is relatively thick.
  • This jet bottom 18 contains for each jet outlet element six a circular cylindrical bearing bore 19, which ensures that the jet outlet element 6 is rotatably mounted.
  • the jet outlet elements 6 are rotatable but axially non-displaceably mounted in the housing.
  • the jet outlet elements are also formed relatively thick, wherein the ring gear 16 is disposed at its end directed into the interior and within the ring gear a clearance 23 is formed. This space 23 serves to guide the water.
  • the openings 7, from which the water emerges, are the openings of passages 24, which are rectilinear and thereby impart a certain direction to the water. How to get the FIG. 4 In the embodiment shown here, the passages extend both eccentrically and obliquely to the axis of rotation of the jet outlet elements 6.
  • FIG. 5 shows an embodiment in which five jet outlet elements are mounted in a similar manner in the beam bottom 18 as in the embodiment according to FIGS. 3 and 4 ,
  • the shaft 13 connected to the rotor 10 is somewhat shorter here and also has a somewhat shorter screw section 25.
  • the shaft 13 is mounted at 17 when entering the showerhead housing 1.
  • the worm portion 25 of the shaft 13 is engaged only with the ring gear 16 of a first jet exit element 6.
  • the rotor 10 thus initially drives only the sprocket 16 of a first jet outlet element via the worm 25 6 on.
  • This ring gear 16 meshes with an intermediate gear 26, which then engages in the ring gear 16 of the next jet outlet element 6. This continues for all jet outlet elements 6.
  • the arrangement of the intermediate gears 26 ensures that all jet outlet elements 6 rotate in the same direction of rotation.
  • the bearing bores 19 are formed for all jet outlet elements 6 as circular cylindrical bores with parallel axles. But it is also possible that these bearing bores do not run parallel to each other, but include a non-zero angle with each other.
  • FIG. 7 shown.
  • the bearing bores 29 for the jet outlet elements 6 form an angle, so that the axes of the bearing bores 29 approach each other in the jet direction of the shower.
  • the bearing bores are thus arranged converging in the beam direction. When driven by a screw, this is very easy, how to do the FIG. 7 can also be found. But also when driven by gears, such an arrangement is possible.
  • a shower head housing contains a plurality of jet outlet elements, each having a plurality of obliquely extending, beam openings forming passages.
  • the jet outlet elements are rotatably mounted in the housing and are set by a water-driven rotor via a reduction gear in a slow rotation. Because of the oblique course of the passages, therefore, the jets emerging from the shower head perform certain movements that are visually recognizable to the user of the shower.
  • the jet exit elements may all be rotationally driven in the same direction or alternately in different directions.
