Abstract

PURPOSE:To emit water so as to be capable of obtaining a fast and low massage feeling simply by providing many water sprinkling orifices to a shower head main body and converging the respective axial lines of the water sprinkling orifices to one plate, forwardly separated by a predetermined distance from the water sprinkling orifices. CONSTITUTION:Many water sprinkling orifices 2 are provided to a shower head main body 1 and the respective axial lines of the water sprinkling orifices 2 are converged to one place, forwardly separated by a predetermined distance from the water sprinkling orifices 2. By this simple structure reduced in the number of parts, water can be emitted so as to simply obtain a fast and slow massage feeling.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a shower head, particularly a shower head for hand showers.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, shower heads for hand showers have various structures depending on the purpose.For example, shower heads for hand showers are used for body washing, hair washing, etc. A device that has water sprinkling holes and is structured to spray water in a diffused manner from these many water sprinkling holes (referred to as a shower head for normal showers), and is intended for powerful cleaning of the body, bathtub, etc., and stimulation of the body. , a shower head with a structure that sprays shower water at high speed from only one water sprinkling hole in the shower head body (referred to as a jet shower shower head)
The purpose is to provide intermittent stimulation for body cleansing or pine surge, and shower heads with a structure that discharges shower water intermittently from two or several water holes (shower heads for pine surge showers) are known. ing.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, the above-mentioned shower heads for normal showers have a slow flow rate and low pressure of shower water, so the irritation is small and the sensation of pine surge cannot be obtained. Since the flow rate of the shower water is constant, the stimulation is monotonous and the pine surge effect is small. In addition, the shower head for pine surge showers has a complicated structure because it discharges water intermittently and has a large number of parts, so it is not only expensive, but also requires higher pressure conditions than the first two.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and its purpose is to provide a shower head that has a simple structure with a small number of parts, and that can easily discharge water with a slow and sudden pine surge feeling. Our goal is to provide the following.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above object, the shower head of the present invention has the following features:
The main body of the shower head is provided with a large number of water sprinkling holes, and the axis of each of the water sprinkling holes is converged at one location a predetermined distance away from the water sprinkling hole in front of the water sprinkling hole.

(Function) In the shower head configured as described above, water is spouted in a shower shape at a position closer to the shower head than the convergence point of the water sprinkling hole axis, and water is spouted in a spot at a position farther from the convergence point. .

(Example) Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a shower head main body, which consists of a roughly cylindrical grip portion 11 having a water passageway 3, and a water sprinkling cap 12 provided continuously at the tip of the grip portion 11.

The grip portion 11 is bent or curved as a whole so that the axis of the inflow port (not shown) that opens at one end of the water passageway 3 intersects the axis of the outflow port 3I that opens at the other end at a predetermined angle. A shower hose 4 is installed at the inlet port.
and the water sprinkling cap 12 is attached to the outlet portion 31.

The watering cap 12 is formed into a bag-like or cap-like shape with one side open, and the opening is connected to the passage outlet 31 of the grip part 11.
Screw it on and secure it with adhesive.

The water sprinkling cap I2 forms a planar water sprinkling surface 5 on a part of the circumferential surface, and a large number of water sprinkling holes 2 are bored in the water sprinkling surface 5.

Several to more than ten (10 in the illustrated example) water sprinkling holes 2 are formed at equal intervals on the same circumference.

The water sprinkling holes 2 are arranged so that each axis a is a line that intersects at right angles to the opening surface of the water sprinkling hole 2 so that each axis a converges at a suitable distance from the water sprinkling surface 5, for example, at one point in a location far away from the water sprinkling surface 5. The hole is opened at a slight angle toward the center of the circle connecting the centers of the water sprinkling holes 2.

Thus, in such a shower head, the shower flow line C converges toward the convergence point C of the axis a of the water sprinkling hole 2, and before the convergence point C, for example, at position A in FIG. As shown in FIG. 4, there is a normal shower state, and further beyond the convergence point C, for example, at position B in FIG. 1, there is a spot-like shower state as shown in FIG.

(Effects) Since the present invention is constructed as described above, it produces the following effects.

(1) A large number of sprinkling holes were opened so that their respective axes converged at one location a predetermined distance away from the opening of the sprinkling hole.
Before the convergence point, a spray-like water discharge state similar to a normal shower is obtained, and beyond the convergence point, a spot-like water discharge state is obtained.

Therefore, depending on the point at which the shower streamline hits the body, shower conditions similar to conventional normal showers and jet showers can be used.

(2) In addition, by alternating and continuously changing the point at which the shower streamline hits the body, for example, the a position and the b position in Figure 1, the pine surge sensation has a gradual and rapid stimulation, similar to the conventional pine surge shower. can be obtained easily.

Moreover, compared to conventional pine surge showers, it has a simpler structure, fewer parts, and is cheaper.
