Abstract

The present invention pertains to a shower switch with adjustable device comprising a main body, a water divided device, a cover, a driving device and a handle. Particularly, the water divided device contains a water divided plate with water divided holes for operating with a sealing plate, which is further positioned inside the main body, and the driving device has one end thereof connecting to the sealing plate and the other end thereof pivoted to the handle. In this manner, the driving device pivoted to the main body and the handle synchronically rotates the sealing plate against the water divided plate by one hand so as to conduct the water from the sealing plate into different water divided holes for the purpose of water switching and of preventing from wetting the hands, hence increasing the convenience.

Claims

1. A shower switch with adjustable device comprising a main body, a water divided device, a cover, a driving device and a handle connecting to said main body;

wherein, said water divided device containing a water divided plate with a plurality of water divided holes defined thereon and a sealing plate with a sealing plate hole formed thereon;

said water divided plate matching and operating with said sealing plate, which has its bottom to be positioned on said cover, and said cover being fastened to said main body so that said sealing plate would be mounted within an inlet cavity of said main body;

said driving device having one end thereof connecting to said sealing plate and the other end thereof pivoted to said handle by passing through said main body.

2. The shower switch with adjustable device as claimed in claim 1, wherein, said sealing plate functions as a rotors;

said sealing plate hole is formed on a lower surface of said sealing plate, and a serrated portion is disposed along a periphery of an upper surface of said sealing plate.

3. The shower switch with adjustable device as claimed in claim 1, wherein, a pillar is installed in the center of said sealing plate to sustain a rod and a spring, so that said pillar is disposed between said main body and said water divided plate.

4. The shower switch with adjustable device as claimed in claim 2, wherein, a pillar is installed in the center of said sealing plate to sustain a rod and a spring, so that said pillar is disposed between said main body and said water divided plate.

5. The shower switch with adjustable device as claimed in claim 1, wherein, said driving device provides with an active gear disposed on said handle, a passive gear located inside said main body for cooperating with said sealing plate, and a transmission shaft with one end thereof engaged to said passive gear and the other end thereof fastened to said active gear by passing through said main body.

6. The shower switch with adjustable device as claimed in claim 5, wherein, said driving device includes a ring-shaped controlling member disposed round said handle and an indented surface formed at an inner side of said operation gear for contacting and cooperating with said active gear.
