DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0026] Embodiments of the present invention will now be described, by way of example only, with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 7, a kitchen and bathroom device with energy-saving and efficient water spray comprises a water outlet panel 1 and nozzles 2 arranged on the water outlet panel 1.

[0028] At least one group of the nozzles 2 is evenly or annularly disposed on the water outlet panel 2. The nozzles 2 each have a water outlet hole 21 at a front end thereof In particular, the nozzles 2 each have two spaced water outlet passages therein, defined as an ordinary water outlet passage 22 and a variational water outlet passage 23. The ordinary water outlet passage 22 and the variational water outlet passage 23 are obliquely disposed at two sides of the centerline of the water outlet hole 21. An included angle is defined between the ordinary water outlet passage 22 and the centerline of the water outlet hole 21. An included angle is defined between the variational water outlet passage 23 and the centerline of the water outlet hole 21. Each of the included angle and the included angle is greater than 0 and less than 90. The sizes of the included angles and can determine the mode of the water spray. The ordinary water outlet passage 22 communicates with the water outlet hole 21 to spray ordinary water. The variational water outlet passage 23 communicates with the water outlet hole 21 to spray variational water in a focalization mode.

[0029] The variational water structure of the present invention can be applied to a shower head, a faucet, a spray gun and other water outlet devices. In a first embodiment of the present invention, the variational water structure is applied to a shower head 3. The water outlet panel 1 is mounted to the shower head 3. The interior of the shower head 3 is provided with corresponding water channels in communication with the ordinary water outlet passage 22 and the variational water outlet passage 23. The two water channels are switched through a switching structure provided inside the shower head 3. The switching structure adopts the prior art. In use, as shown in FIG. 2, when the water pressure is normal, the water channel of the ordinary water outlet passage 22 is opened, and the variational water outlet passage 23 is closed. The water passes through the ordinary water outlet passage 22 and flows out from the water outlet hole 21 to spray ordinary water. The shower head 3 sprays water in a flared mode. When the water pressure is low, as shown in FIG. 3, the switching structure is operated to open the water channel of the variational water outlet passage 23. The water passes through the variational water outlet passage 23 and flows out from the water outlet hole 21. The shower head 3 sprays water in a focalization mode.

[0030] In a second embodiment of the present invention, the variational water structure is applied to a pull-out faucet 4. The water outlet panel 1 is mounted to the pull-out faucet 4. As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, when the water pressure is normal, the water channel of the ordinary water outlet passage 22 of the nozzle of the water outlet panel is opened, and the variational water outlet passage 23 is dosed. The water passes through the ordinary water outlet passage 22 and flows out from the water outlet hole 21. The pull-out faucet 4 sprays water in a flared mode. When the water pressure is low, as shown in FIG. 6, the switching structure is operated to open the water channel of the variational water outlet passage 23, and the ordinary water outlet passage 22 is closed. The water passes through the variational water outlet passage 23 and flows out from the water outlet hole 21. The pull-out faucet 4 sprays water in a focalization mode.

[0031] The water outlet hole 21 at the front end of the nozzle 2 of the present invention may be a single hole configuration or a double hole configuration. When the water outlet hole 21 is a single hole configuration, the ordinary water outlet passage 22 and the variational water outlet passage 23 selectively communicate with the water outlet hole 21 to spray ordinary water or variational water. When the water outlet hole 21 is a double hole configuration, as shown in FIGS. 7, 7A and 8, the two holes of the water outlet hole correspond to and communicate with the ordinary water outlet passage 22 and the variational water outlet passage 23 respectively to spray ordinary water or variational water.

[0032] It should be noted that the included angle between the ordinary water outlet passage 22 and the centerline of the outlet hole 21 and the included angle between the variational water outlet passage 23 and the centerline of the outlet hole 21 in the present invention can be set according to the requirements during manufacture. The nozzles are arranged on the water outlet panel of the shower head depending on the sizes of the included angles in accordance with the law of increasing or diminishing or other laws to spray water in different modes. As shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. 10, the nozzles are arranged according to a certain rule to spray and focalize water in the form of a small circle or in a broom-like shape. As shown in FIG. 11, the nozzles can spray water in a two-by-two intersecting mode.

[0033] With the above structure, the nozzles of the water outlet panel of the shower head of the present invention is formed with the ordinary water outlet passage corresponding to the normal water pressure and the variational water outlet passage corresponding to the low water pressure. When in use, the water channels can be switched to communicate with the corresponding water outlet passage to spray normal water or variational water in a focalization mode according to the water pressure or individual needs. In the case of lower water pressure, the focalized variational water is sprayed out to maintain strong scouring force and effectively solve the problem of poor water outflow effect. The novel structure of the present invention is particularly applicable to an environment with unstable water pressure.

[0034] Although particular embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail for purposes of illustration, various modifications and enhancements may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Accordingly, the present invention is not to be limited except as by the appended claims
