Description

    FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE
  • The present disclosure relates to sanitary wares, in particular relates to a hollow water outlet mechanism and a water outlet device comprising the hollow water outlet mechanism.
  • BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE
  • The hollow water outlet mechanism, for example, CN105983490B comprises a hollow housing and a flow guide column disposed in the housing. An annular passage is defined between the housing and the flow guide column, and a plurality of arc water inlet grooves are further disposed on the housing. The plurality of arc-shaped water inlet grooves are disposed in an annular array about the annular passage that functions as a center, and inner ends of the arc-shaped water inlet grooves is in communication with the annular passage, and water flows into the annular passage along the arc-shaped water inlet grooves to define a hollow annular water curtain with a centrifugal force. When a tangential centrifugal force of the water guided by a lower flow section is greater than its surface tensional force, it will break, so that the water will break into particles and disperse after maintaining a certain length of the water curtain. After the dispersing, a certain range of continuous water spray will be formed. A bathing area is large, and a single particle-shaped water spray has a good particle feeling. FR 1 489 974 A relates to a sprayer-aerator device comprising a sieve arrangement for forming a fine spray. Said device further comprises removable parts for easy cleaning and interchangeable parts so that the articulation of the rotating assembly can be removed with the remaining parts of the device connected directly to a sink faucet.

The first annular cavity 43, the second annular cavity 44, the third annular cavity 45, the fourth annular cavity 46, and the hollow hole 41 are disposed in an inward direction. The first annular cavity 43 is in communication with the water inlet passage 42. A plurality of first water blocking strips 47 and 47' is circumferentially disposed between the first annular cavity 43 and the second annular cavity 44 at intervals, and water in the first annular cavity 43 flows into the second annular cavity 44 through a first interval defined between every two adjacent first water blocking strips 47 and 47' (i.e., between two adjacent first water blocking strips 47, two adjacent first water blocking strips 47', between two first water blocking strips 47 and 47', etc.) of the plurality of first water blocking strips 47 and 47'. A plurality of second water blocking strips 48 are circumferentially disposed between the second annular cavity 44 and the third annular cavity 45 at intervals, and the water in the second annular cavity 44 flows into the third annular cavity 45 through a second interval defined between every two adjacent second water blocking strips 48 of the plurality of second water blocking strips 48. An annular water passage 49 is disposed between the third annular cavity 45 and the fourth annular cavity 46. The water in the third annular cavity 45 overflows and flows into the fourth annular cavity 46 through the annular water passage 49, the water flows out along the fourth annular cavity 46, and air is sucked in from the hollow hole 41 during a process of the flowing out. In this embodiment, annular shapes (i.e., the first annular cavity 43, the second annular cavity 44, the third annular cavity 45 and the fourth annular cavity 46) have circular structures, but they are not limited to thereto, as required, the annular shapes can also be rectangular structures, square structures, polygonal structures, etc.

The plurality of first water blocking strips 47 and 47' circumferentially disposed at intervals is used to convert the water annular flow into a plurality of water radial flow flowing into the second annular cavity 44 and circumferentially disposed at intervals, so as to rectify and convert the water unilateral inflow into a water multilateral inflow. The second annular cavity 44 and the plurality of second water blocking strips 48 circumferentially disposed at intervals are used to adjust a flow direction of a rotating water, to convert the plurality of water radial flow into a flow directing to a center, to make a flow rate of a full circle to be uniform, so as to rectify and convert the rotating water into a non-rotating water. The water in the third annular cavity 45 overflows and flows into the fourth annular cavity 46 through the annular water passage 49 to reduce a water flow rate, to ensure the water to define a complete circle structure, and to prevent from breaking.
