Patent Images
1. A showerhead system comprisinga support structure configured to directly couple to a shower pipe to receive water flow therefrom and to be supported on a wall of a shower or bath enclosure thereby, the support structure comprisinga first rigid arm including a first fluid channel;
- a second rigid arm spaced apart from the first rigid arm and including a second fluid channel; and
a control mode selector operatively coupled to the first fluid channel and the second fluid channel, the control mode selector configured to transition between a first position to direct water flow to the first fluid channel and a second position to direct water flow to at least the second fluid channel; and
an integral showerhead coupled to the support structure, the showerhead configured to receive and distribute the water flow from at least one of the first and the second fluid channels;
wherein the control mode selector is positioned in a base of the support structure and configured to receive the water flow thereof; and
the first rigid arm extends from the control mode selector to the showerhead and the second rigid arm extends from the control mode selector to the showerhead.
