Description

Spraying Apparatus Having Balanced Distribution Type Spraying Plate {Spraying Apparatus Having Balanced Distribution Type Spraying Plate}

The present invention relates to a sprinkling plate and a fluid sprinkling device formed to sprinkle a fluid at a target point, and more particularly, a sprinkling that can increase the feeling of use through a plurality of sprinkling areas divided to have a balanced distribution pattern. It relates to a plate and a fluid sprinkling device including the same.

When a fluid sprinkling device that sprinkles a specific fluid at a predetermined target point, including a showerhead that is attached to a shower device to sprinkle water, is manufactured with a function that can change sprinkling pattern or sprinkling flow rate according to the user's intention There are many.

In the conventional fluid sprinkling apparatus, it is common that the spray pattern of the sprinkling plate in which the sprinkling hole for spraying the fluid is formed is divided in a concentric circle shape, and the user switches the spray pattern through a predetermined operation.

However, such a conventional fluid sprinkling device gradually increases the area in which the fluid is not sprayed in the center as it proceeds to the spray pattern outside the concentric circle, which makes the user feel empty in the center of the spray pattern. There were many cases where it was not preferred.

Therefore, a method for solving these problems is required.
