A multi-mode fluid nozzle includes a generally-cylindrical mixing chamber with a stream mode fluid inlet connected to one side of the chamber, a fluid outlet connected to the opposite side of the chamber and a plurality of mist mode fluid inlets connected to the periphery of the chamber. The discharge pattern of the multi-mode fluid nozzle is dependent upon the inlets from which fluid enters the mixing chamber such that when the fluid enters the mixing chamber through the stream mode fluid inlet, the fluid exits the fluid outlet in a stream flow discharge pattern, when the fluid enters the mixing chamber through the mist mode fluid inlets, the fluid exits the fluid outlet in a mist flow discharge pattern and when the fluid enters the mixing chamber through the stream mode and the mist mode fluid inlets, the fluid exits the fluid outlet in a droplet flow discharge pattern.

The present disclosure relates to a showerhead that outputs a pulsating or massaging spray. The showerhead may include an engine including a flow directing housing, a turbine, and a shutter to create the pulsating or intermittent spray. The flow directing housing may have a plurality of flow directing apertures defined around its perimeter, allowing for water to tangentially flow into the engine, rotating the turbine. As the turbine rotates, the shutter moves back and forth creating the pulsating spray.

Disclosed is a shower apparatus, including a water flow body having a water output device with a water outlet mounted thereon. The water flow body includes a first water flow conduit and a second water flow conduit. The water output device includes a switch device having a third water flow conduit communicating with the first water flow conduit and the water outlet. The switch device also includes a fourth flow conduit communicating with the second water flow conduit. The switch device can switch between at least two water output effects. The water flow body includes a control device for controlling the water input through the first water flow conduit or the second water flow conduit. The invention can change the relative position of the switch device by the impact of the waterflow, thereby changing the water output effect of the water outlet to ameliorate the showering experience.

The present invention consists of a flexible pool fountain system that comprises modular segments that connect in a manner to form a conduit for the flow of water from the return inlet of a pools circulation system and in a direction to form a positional fountain feature. The connections are linked by male to female sockets that allow multi-axial positioning and the retention of shape until the system is repositioned. The flexible design permits the system of segments to be compact and have a minimal profile above and below the waterline. Within the system of conduit segments an inline sliding T-valve is used to enable the control of force at which the fountain is emitted onto the pools surface. The flexibility of the conduit segments also allows for the system to facilitate optimal positioning of a pools water return jet circulation flow. Three-way conduit segments, and the design of which they permit, allow for other embodiments to be connected that provide multiple points above the waterline that can be used to provide multiple fountain features.

A shower device is provided. The shower device comprises a top shower, a diverting valve core, a switching assembly, a handheld shower, and a pause valve core. The switching assembly is configured to control the diverting valve core to be switched between the normal diverting state and forced diverting state.

A washing machine appliance includes a diverter assembly for selectively directing a flow of water to a primary dispenser and an auxiliary spray device. The diverter assembly includes a diverter body defining a diverter body defining a chamber inlet, a primary outlet in fluid communication with the primary dispenser, and an auxiliary outlet in fluid communication with the auxiliary spray device. A diverter valve moves between a first and second position based on a pressure differential relative to a diverter chamber. During standard operation, a spring urges the diverter valve to seal the auxiliary outlet and direct the flow to the primary dispenser. When a button is depressed to activate the auxiliary spray device, the pressure differential across the auxiliary outlet urges the diverter valve to a second position that seals the primary outlet and directs the flow to the auxiliary spray device.

A single-button water passage switching structure includes a water inlet assembly and a water outlet assembly. The water inlet assembly includes a water inlet body, an operating button, a first control assembly, and a second control assembly. The water inlet body has a first mounting chamber and a second mounting chamber. The first mounting chamber and the second mounting chamber each have a water inlet and two water outlets. The first control assembly is configured to realize a pause mode, a first spray mode or the switching of water passages of the second mounting chamber. The second control assembly is configured to realize the switching of water passages of a second spray mode or a third spray mode. The operating button is configured to link the first control assembly and the second control assembly.

A showerhead with inline engine porting is provided. The showerhead may include a housing defining a fluid inlet pathway and an engine rotatably mounted to the housing. The engine may include a series of ports defined within a sidewall of the engine. The series of ports may be associated with different flow pathways defined within the engine. Rotation of the engine relative to the housing may selectively align the fluid inlet pathway with one of the series of ports.

The present disclosure discloses a waterway switching mechanism comprising a mounting portion, a water dividing plate, and a driving mechanism. The mounting portion comprises at least one water dividing passage, and the water dividing plate cooperates with the at least one water dividing passage to switch a waterway through rotation of the water dividing plate. A third upper guiding surface of the movable block contacts and couples to a first inner guiding surface of the water dividing plate to enable the movable block to move to drive the water dividing plate to rotate in a first direction. The movable block cooperates with a fixing guiding surface of an upper matching portion of the mounting portion to enable the push rod to move to drive the movable block and the water dividing plate to rotate in the first direction.

A switching valve spool has a fixed shaft and a switching shaft coaxially arranged within. The switching shaft is linked with an operating unit and moves between a first, second, and third position in the fixed shaft along the axis. The switching shaft has an inlet and an outlet. In the first position of the switching shaft, the inlet is closed; in the second position of the switching shaft, the inlet is open and an air intake is formed between the side wall of the switching shaft closing to the outlet and the fixed shaft, when the water flows into the fixed shaft from the outlet, the air sucked from the air intake mixes with the water in the fixed shaft, because the fixed shaft diameter is larger than the outlet diameter; in the third position of the switching shaft, the inlet remains open and the air intake is closed.
