Abstract
A sprayer. An annular tube is installed at a water outlet of a water main tube. The annular tube is installed with spraying holes. The annular tube is formed with at least one annular tube. The surface of the annular tube is installed with spraying holes. In one embodiment, a first annular tube rotates around the water main tube. Another annular tube rotates around the first annular tube so that water beams from the spraying holes to present a changeable three dimensional effect.
Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a sprayer, wherein a plurality of water outlet joints are connected at the water outlet of the water main tube. The water outlet joints are connected to respective water spraying tubes.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
For the current sprayer (referring to FIG.
1
), the distal end of the water main tube
10
has a joint
11
which is connected to an annular tube
12
. The surface of the annular tube
12
is installed with spraying holes
13
(shown in FIG.
2
). The annular tube
12
is divided into two parts. The left and right parts of the spraying holes
13
are arranged at opposite sides. If the left side of the spraying hole
13
is on the upper surface of the annular tube
12
, and the right side of the spraying hole
13
is on the lower surface of the annular tube
12
(referring to FIG.
2
), as water in the annular tube
12
sprays out from the spraying holes
13
, by the reaction force of the water beam
14
, the annular tube will rotate around the axial center of the water tube
10
. This way for arranging spraying holes
13
will generate water beams
14
at opposite directions and thereby, the annular tube
12
will rotate due to the water beams
14
.
In this sprayer, the water beam
14
will present as a water screen by the driving of the annular tube. Therefore, a beautiful scenery is formed. However, the conventional sprayer presents a pane or umbrella like water screens. The shape is dull. Even the shape of the annular tube
12
is changed, the water screen has also a two dimensional plane form
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Accordingly, the primary object of the present invention is to provide a sprayer with a three dimensional water screen. The water outlet of the water main tube is installed with an annular tube and at least one tube. The annular tube or tube has joints at two ends. The two ends are connected to a common annular tube, or each joint is connected to an annular tube. Each annular tube or tubes are installed with spraying holes. Therefore, when water flows in the annular tube or tubes, and water is sprayed from the spraying holes. Each tube bodies will be driven to rotate. The rotational direction is different. Therefore, a 3D water screen is presented. The reason is that the annular tube or tubes connected to the water main tube may be driven by water to rotate by itself, so that the tube connected to the aforesaid tube will be driven to rotate by itself, the rotations of the two depend on different axial centers. The former rotates around the water main tube, while the latter rotates around the former tubes. Therefore, the effect likes the rotation of the earth. The two rotates around different centers. Therefore, the 3D water screen is formed. The annular tube or tubes of the present invention may have any desired shape. One water outlet end is further connected to an annular tube. Spraying holes are installed on the surfaces of the annular tubes As in operation, water screen of the annular tube like an envelop, an the water screen from the annular tube presents a special shape. Therefore, the whole effect likes an envelope with one pet therein. The shapes of the annular tubes can be modified as desired.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
Referring to
FIG. 3
, in the present invention, a screw sleeve
21
is installed at one water outlet end of a water main tube
20
. A connecting head
31
capable of being engaged with an annular tube
30
is engaged with the sleeve. Water flows through the water main tube
20
, the screw sleeve
21
and joint head
31
to the annular tube
30
. The surface of the annular tube
30
is installed with spraying holes
32
,
33
. The left spraying hole
32
is at the surface of the annular tube
30
, and the right spraying hole
33
is at a rear side of the annular tube
30
. Thereby, as water is sprayed, a torque generates, therefore, the annular tube
30
rotates along the water main tube
20
. Besides, the holes of the spraying holes
32
,
33
on the annular tube
30
are formed as an approximate parabolic curve (referring to
FIG. 4
) so that a torque can be generated successfully. Two distal ends of the abovesaid annular tube
30
are installed with two screw sleeves
34
and
35
. An annular tube
40
is formed therebetween. The annular tube
40
is formed with spraying holes
41
,
42
. The two joint heads
43
,
44
at two ends are used as fulcrums of the annular tube
40
, when water flows through the joint head
43
,
44
to the spraying holes
41
,
42
and then sprays out, the annular tube
40
can rotate around the axial center between two ends of another annular tube
30
. Therefore, since the two annular tubes
30
and
40
rotate around different axial centers, a three dimensional water screen is formed. One or two of the screw sleeves
34
and
35
of the annular tube
30
have water through holes. Thereby, water in the annular tube
30
can flow into another annular tube
40
. Furthermore, the joint heads
43
,
44
of the annular tube
40
are installed to match the water through holes of the screw sleeves
34
and
35
. Thereby, only one of the joint heads is installed with water through hole.
Referring to
FIGS. 5 and 6
, another embodiment of the present invention is illustrated. An L shape annular tube
60
is screwed into an upper end of the water main tube
50
. One water outlet end
61
is further connected to an annular tube
70
. Spraying holes are installed on the surfaces of the annular tubes
60
and
70
. As in operation, water screen of the annular tube
60
like an envelope, an the water screen from the annular tube
70
presents a special shape. Therefore, the whole effect likes an envelope with one pet therein. The shapes of the annular tubes
60
and
70
can be modified as desired.
The present invention are thus described, it will be obvious that the same may be varied in many ways. Such variations are not to be regarded as a departure from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and all such modifications as would be obvious to one skilled in the art are intended to be included within the scope of the following claims.
Claims
