  • Publication number: 20160228885
    Abstract: A water outlet structure for generating candle flame shaped water and a shower head mounting the same comprises a water inlet passage to collecting water, a hemisphere water chamber formed at the bottom of the water inlet passage, a V shaped through groove set at the bottom of the hemisphere water chamber and an axis of the V shaped through groove located on an outside of the axis of the water inlet passage and forming a fixed angle. The water flows are concentrated and the water pressure is increased due to a mutation when the water flows through the intersection area between the hemisphere water chamber and the V shaped through groove, and by a further angle deviating, a much more intense collision effect is generated inside the channel. A larger area showering, favourable impact force, particle feeling and water saving are achieved.

  • Patent number: 9211550
    Abstract: A shower comprising a detachable faceplate, a body having an assembly chamber, a diverter and a back plate mounted in the assembly chamber. Slots are arranged around the periphery of the back plate. Rotating claws engaging with the slots are arranged around the periphery of the face plate. A locking button is arranged on the body to limit the rotation of the faceplate, to avoid the faceplate from dropping off due to free rotation of the faceplate and improper operation by the consumers. The faceplate can be easily detached by pressing the locking button.

  • Publication number: 20140311592
    Abstract: It is a temperature control outlet device, including parts as body, faceplate communicating with the outlet end of the body, and the outlet assembly inside the body. The said outlet assembly includes a valve connected to the said body The said valve includes a mainstream and a diversion vent. There is a valve rod inside the channel of the said mainstream, which will open/close the said mainstream flow through a bias spring on the bottom and a memory spring on the top. The said diversion vent is connected to the diversion assembly and then makes a diversion channel. The said diversion assembly includes a switching rod with one end connected to a captured spring and the other end connected to a button so as to open/close the diversion channel. The invention of the claimed temperature control device will automatically stop outflow after running out cold water so as to save hot water and time in a way to make it more practical.

  • Publication number: 20140151466
    Abstract: This invention discloses a shower that comprises a detachable faceplate, a body with chamber assembly inside, a water diverter and a back plate mounted in the chamber assembly. Slots are arranged to the outer circle of the said back plate. Claws are arranged to the outer circle of the said face plate which engages with the said slots of the back plate by rotation. A locking button is arranged on the said body to control the rotation of the said faceplate. The shower with a detachable faceplate mentioned in the present invention controls the rotation of faceplate by setting the locking button, to avoid the falling off caused by the free rotation of faceplate and improper operation of consumers; and the faceplate can be easily removed just by pressing the locking button to release the rotation limit and turning the faceplate gently.
