Definitions

  • the spray rawmg head assembly comprises a plurality of compartments each in [52] US. Cl 239/17, communication with different spray orifices and means are 239/539,239/563,239/58l provided for sequentially and cumulatively providing fluid [51] Int. Cl B05b 17/08 communication between the compartments to obtain various [50] Field of Search 239/16 17, flow patterns.
  • the spray orifices are located in a spray head which is manually rotated to obtain the desired flow pattern.
  • the invention is concerned with a water jet head assembly
  • a water jet head assembly comprising a hollow body a, water supply entry in the body, a head, the head being movably adjustable in relation to the body and having a plurality of holes therein for the outflow of water jets, and means disposed inside the body so that adjustment of the head relative to the body controls through which holes waters jets emerge.
  • FIG. I shows a perspective view of an embodiment of the invention
  • FIG. 2 is an axial cross section of the embodiment of FIG. 1'
  • FIG. 3 is a cross section taken along line 33 of FIG. 2,
  • FIG. 4 is a partially cutaway perspective view of another embodiment of the invention.
  • FIGS. 50, b, 5c and 5d show various forms of water jets available from a single embodiment of the invention, for example that shown in FIG. 1.
  • the water jet head assembly consists of a frustoconical body I terminating at its lower or entry end with an internal thread 2 adapted to receive a water supply pipe (not shown).
  • the supply pipe can include a valve and/or regulating means, for example a tap.
  • At its upper end body I is provided with an external thread 3 upon which is screwed an orificed spring head 4 furnished with holes 5, 5 'and 5".
  • Each of the pluralities of holes 5' and 5" as well as the central hole 5 is in constant communication with a compartment within the body I.
  • holes 5 and5" are inclined with respect to hole 5 which is aligned with the axis of the cone of body I.
  • the alignment of these holes determines in normal fashion the direction of each individual jet of water issuing therefrom.
  • the holes can be complemented by the provision of countersunk pipes.
  • a tube 6 extends along the'axis of body I from the vicinity of the thread 2 and is fixed to the spray head 4 around the central hole 5.
  • the interior of the tube 6 defines a compartment in constant fluid communication with the hold 5. The position of this tube allows supply of water to hole 5, as indicated by arrow 7 while allowing a part of the liquid to be directed to the space 9 between the tube 6 and the conical body I as indicated by arrows 8.
  • An annular laterally extending projection 10 is placed on the tube 6 at its lower end.
  • the dimensions of the projection 10 are such that by screwing the spray head 4 onto the body I the projection can be brought into contact with the internal surface of the body I so that by screwing up or unscrewing the spray head 4, the supply of water into the space 9 can be regulated.
  • projection 12 becomes separated from the body I so that liquid thus enters a compartment I4 situated between the tube 13 and the body I thus arriving at holes 5".
  • the projection I2 could be replaced by a similar annular member fixed at the bottom of the tube 13.
  • the tube 6, the pipe I3 and the lateral projections 10 and 12 are all integral with the spray head 4 and are moved translationally with respect to the body I in response to rotation of the spray head 4.
  • the various compartments are sequentially and cumulatively interconnected along with the orifices 5, 5' and 5" to yield the flow patterns depicted in FIG. 5a-5d.
  • the frustoconical body I can be replaced by a body the interior of which consists of a certain number of cylindrical surfaces of increasing diameter in stair formation and cooperating with the respective projections.
  • the rotational movement of the head 4 can also be replaced by a simple translational or axial movement and the position of the tubes 6 and I3 can be varied-for example they need not be concentric and the complete assembly may or may not be symmetrical.
  • the projections such as I0 and I2 and the tubes 6 and 13 terminate in annular chambers 15 and 16 having a base portion which consists of a partition 17.
  • This partition 17 is provided with openings I8 and 19 of varied length.
  • the holes 5, 5 and 5" are in constant communication with compartments defined by the interior of the central tube, the chamber 15, and the chamber 16. respectively and these compartments are sequentially and cumulatively provided with pressurized fluid in response to rotation of the spray head to obtain the various flow patterns shown in FIGS. 5a5d.
  • Partition 20 is provided with openings 21 and 22 situated under the trajectories of the openings 18 and 19.
  • Rotation of the head 4 allows the openings 18 and 21, 19 and 22, respectively, to be e sequentially and cumulatively brought into registry or alignment with one another which allows a flow of liquid and regulation thereof.
  • the water jets from the holes 5" can be selectively controlled and likewise the angular displacement of openings the 18 and 21 controls the water jets fromthe holes 5'.
  • An ornamental spray head assembly comprising: a hollow body; means in the body connectable to a water supply; a movably mounted spray head having a plurality of holes therein for the outflow of water jets; means mounting said spray head for movement relative to said body; and means disposed inside the body for controlling through which holes water can flow in response to movement of said spray head comprising a pipe fixed centrally in said body having one end in fluid communication with said water supply and the other end in fluid communication with said water supply and the other end in fluid communication with one of said holes, a tube having a wider diameter than said pipe attached to said spray head. an wherein at least one hole in said spray head is located between said pipe and tube and at least one other hole in said spray head is positioned outside said tube.
  • An ornamental spray head assembly comprising; a hollow body; means on said body connectable to a source of pressurized fluid; a movably mounted spray head having a plurality of orifices therein; means defining a plurality of individual compartments within said body each in constant fluid communication with respective ones of said orifices; and means mounting said spray head for manual movement relative to said body to sequentially and cumulatively provide fluid communication between said compartments in response to manual movement of said spray head to selectively provide different spray patterns through said spray head.
  • each of said compartments includes a wall portion integral with said spray head.
