Abstract

Disclosed is a shower head having a pressure device formed of a vane wheel, which is rotated to give a pressure to the intake flow of water when water is guided into the shower head. The shower head comprises a casing, which has a water inlet pipe for receiving water from a water source, a spray face plate mounted in the casing for spraying water out of the casing for shower bath, a perforated cover plate covering the casing to hold the spray face member in plate, and a pressure device mounted inside the casing and adapted to give pressure to water passing through the casing toward the spray face plate. The pressure device comprises a top cover shell and a bottom cover shell sealed together, a water inlet for guiding in water from the water inlet pipe, a water outlet for guiding out water toward the spray face plate, and a vane wheel pivotally mounted in between the top cover shell and the bottom cover shell, the vane wheel defining a water accumulation chamber in fluid communication between the water inlet and the water outlet.

Claims

1. A shower head comprising:

a casing, said casing having a water inlet pipe for receiving water from a water source;

a spray face plate mounted in said casing for spraying water out of said casing for shower bath; and

a perforated cover plate covering said casing to hold said spray face member in plate;

wherein a pressure device is mounted inside said casing and adapted to give pressure to water passing through said casing toward said spray face plate, said pressure device comprising a top cover shell and a bottom cover shell sealed together, a water inlet for guiding in water from said water inlet pipe, a water outlet for guiding out water toward said spray face plate, and a vane wheel pivotally mounted in between said top cover shell and said bottom cover shell, said vane wheel defining a water accumulation chamber in fluid communication between said water inlet and said water outlet.

2. The shower head as claimed in claim 1, wherein said spray face plate comprises a front jet nozzle plate affixed to said casing, and a back dial plate rotatable relative to said front jet nozzle plate for regulating passage of water through said front jet nozzle plate.
