Definitions
- the shower head is constructed so that the forward pressure US. Cl 239/460 of the liquid on the shower head nozzle does not cause relative B05b 1/32 movement of the shower head parts.
- a piston-type of arrange- Field of Search 239/460, ment is employed wherein no fluid pressure is developed 456, 455460 which acts on the adjusting mechanism.
- This invention relates to a shower head having a control for varying the spray from its nozzle for an improved distribution over a broad range of line pressures.
- control adjustments are provided for regulating the flow and velocity of the spray by constricting one or more openings of the nozzles at the outlet of the spray head.
- the water pressure has a tendency to operate the control valve to either move the nozzles and their respective openings outward to increase the flow of water, or to move the coupling surrounding the nozzles outwardly to shut off the nozzle valves.
- This difficulty is overcome by applying a high frictional drag to the control arm in the form of a gland packing type seal so as to frictionally bias the rotational movement produced by the water pressure against the internal movable parts of the shower head.
- a shower head having an external control member and which employs a pressure isolation of the movable members within the shower head, so that there is virtually no tendency to actuate the control arm in response to water flow through the shower head regardless of the selected setting of the control arm.
- the force produced by the water pressure in a rearward direction is isolated from the adjustment cylinder by a fixed piston and there is no forward acting force on the open end of the adjustment cylinder so the control member remains over the entire range of line pressures.
- FIG. I is a cross-sectional view in elevation, of a shower head in the closed position according to the invention.
- FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view in elevation of the shower head of FIG. 1 in a maximum open position
- FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view in elevation of another modification of a shower head in the fine spray position
- FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view, in elevation of the shower head of FIG. 3, in the medium spray position;
- FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of the shower head of FIG. 4, in the flushing position.
- FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view in elevation, of a further modification of a shower head.
- FIG. 1 there is shown the shower head according to the invention having a substantially cylindrical outer shell 10 with a rotating control member 12 mounted thereagainst. Affixed to member 12 is pin 30 which slides in cam groove 38 in such a manner as to cause axial movement of inner cylindrical shell member 26.
- the front of the shower head includes a conically shaped skirt 14, which surrounds the outlet of the shower head. Concentrically disposed within the skirt is a shower director 16.
- the shower head according to the invention is shown pivotably supported from ball joint 18, which is coupled to the threaded end of member 20.
- Ball joint 18 customarily includes a coupling nut 22 which contains an internal helical thread having a diameter and pitch corresponding to the externally threaded member 20.
- the inner cylindrical support member 20 includes a main passageway 19 which provides communication between the inlet pipe 17, the ball joint 18, and the chamber 47.
- Mounted within the outer shell member 10 is an inner cylindrical shell member 26 which functions as a control member.
- the member 20, positioned within shell 26 functions as an isolation piston.
- An O-ring 28 is retained within an annular slot or groove 21 formed along the wall of piston 20. O-ring 28 provides a sliding fluid seal between the piston and the internal walls of shell 26.
- flanges 32 Along the undersurface of flanges 32 are internal helical threads 34 which corresponds in diameter and pitch to an external helical thread disposed at the end of a vertical cylindrical projection of a shower director 16.
- the lower conically shaped flange portion of shower director 16 contains a plurality of flutes 36 formed longitudinally along its external surface completely around its periphery. Moreover, the vertical guide angle to which flutes 36 approach the opening of shower director 16 is relieved by a flush angle adjacent to its midportion. By design, the flutes 36 around the periphery of shower director 16 partially closes the aperture within member 26 causing fluid to be emitted from chamber 48 in separate streams. Axial movement of inner shell member 26 with respect to shower director 16 causes variation in the diameter and velocity of aforesaid stream.
- a center distributor 40 mounted coaxially within shower director 16 contains a plurality of flutes 42 on the periphery of its downwardly projecting shank. 0n the periphery of a portion of center distributor 40 is a member 44 which in cooperation with director 16, forms a step which serves as a retaining surface for receiving one end of spring 46.
- spring 46 is fitted over center distributor 40 until it engages step 50 at the upper end of distributor 40.
- Spring 46 has a diameter slightly smaller than bore 48 of shower director 16 so that when distributor 40 is coaxially mounted therein, the opposite end of spring 26 will fit around distributor 40 and within director 38.
- Member 44 is then threadably engaged to director 16 so that the compressional force of spring 46 will urge distributor 40 against step 50 until overcome by pressure of fluid entering through passage 49.
- flutes 42 on the periphery of distributor 40 engage the inner walls and partially close off the aperture within member 44.
- FIG. 3 shows another modification of a shower head, which is supported by a ball joint 18.
- the ball joint is coupled to the threaded end of the inner body member 60, by means of a coupling nut 22, which contains an internal helical thread having a diameter in pitch corresponding to the externally threaded member 60.
- the inner body member 60 has an interior passageway 62 through which water flows, when the shower is in use.
- An outer body member 64 is fixed at one end to one end of the inner body member 60, as for example by cooperating screw threads, solvent welding or the like. Obviously, the choice between solvent welding, heat fusing, cementing, etc., or manufacturing in a single piece the various elements of the shower assembly as a matter of manufacturing convenience does not constitute a part of the invention.
- a cam handle 66 is mounted for rotation in the outer body member 64.
- a locking pin 68 can be used to fix the handle in place.
- a pin 30 is carried by the cam handle 66.
- the pin 30 is eccentrically positioned with respect to the center of rotation of handle 66 and is in engagement with the balance piston 70 by means of the cup-shaped, pin receiving member 72 positioned at one end of the balance piston.
- a water passage containing section 74 of the piston 70, is connected to the shower director 76 by means of cooperating screw threads, or the like.
- Rotation of the cam handle 66 causes the balance piston 70 and consequently the waterway member 74 and the shower director 76 to rotate about the inner body member 60 and to move axially with respect to the inner body member.
- Rotation of the cam handle 66 from the position shown in FIG. 3 to the position shown in FIG. 4, causes the space between the shower director 76 and the director ring 78, (located in a groove on the inside of one end of the outer body member 64) to increase, thus moving the shower head from the closed or fine spray position to the medium spray position.
- the path of the water in the shower head is as follows.
- the water enters through the ball joint member 18 and travels through the passageway 62 in the inner body member 60 then openings 63 which are preferably elongated slots which extend along the length of the elongated tubular portion 61 of the body member 60.
- the water then passes in part through the openings 80 and in part between the ring 78 and the shower director 76.
- the grooves in the surface of the shower director control the direction of the individual streams of water.
- Rotation of the cam handle 66 causes the clearance between the shower director 76 and the ring 78 to increase or decrease.
- the O-ring 82 provides a seal between the balance piston 70 and the outer body member 64 as well as providing a sliding surface between the two members. As shown in FIG. when the shower director 76 is in its outermost position, a sufficient clearance is provided to enable the shower head to be flushed of solid particles which are trapped between the shower director 76 and the outer body member 64.
- the sliding of the balance piston 70 on the tubular member 61 is facilitated by the use of at least one O-ring 84 which is positioned in a groove of the outer surface of the member 61.
- O-ring 84 which is positioned in a groove of the outer surface of the member 61.
- additional O-rings or other types of sealing means can be used.
- the shower head structure of FIGS. 3, 4, and 5 are dimensioned such that the fluid pressures on the inner member 74 are balanced and the spray position obtained by rotating of the cam handle 66 will not change during use.
- the outwardly extending section 71 of the member 74 is approximately equal to the corresponding region 73 of the shower director 76.
- the surface area of the region 75, of the member 74 approximates the exposed surface 77 of the shower director 76.
- FIG. 6 A further modification of the shower head structure is shown in FIG. 6.
- This modification of the inner body member is fixed to the shower director 92.
- Rotation of the handle 94 causes the outer shell 96 to move axially with respect to the shower director 92 and inner body member 90.
- the water travels axially through the inner member 90 and then outwardly through a plurality of ports 98 located circumferentially around the inner body member 90 adjacent to the shower director 92.
- the water then flows between the movable outer member 96 and the shower director 92.
- a plurality of grooves in the outer surface of the shower director 92 cooperate with a ring 100 to provide a plurality of discrete, well-defined streams of water.
- the O-ring 102 prevents the water from flowing the wrong direction, that is out of the rear end of the shower head.
- the outer, movable portion 96 of the shower head does not tend to move because it is in effect isolated, that is, because the water pressure is isolated from the movable member.
