Shower device having a resiliently depressible jet disk for removing mineral deposits
First Claim
1. Shower device with a flexible, flat jet disk, being curved outwards in at least one surface zone, said shower device further comprising a space located behind said jet disk, wherein on exceeding a specific pressing in force (E) exerted on said jet disk, said jet disk springs round suddenly with the curvature inwards into said space and when the force is relieved said jet disk springs back automatically into the starting position wherein said jet disk has at least one material weakening along a substantially closed line.

Abstract
A shower device having a flexible, flat jet or spray disk is created, in which at least one surface zone is curved outwards and on exceeding a specific pressing in force (E) exerted thereon springs round suddenly with the curvature inwards into a space located behind it and automatically springs back to the starting position when the force is relieved. As a result of the springing or springing round, it is possible to detach lime deposits from the jet disk.
