DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Hereinafter to deliberate more specifically the embodiment of the present disclosure, the narration sets forth from which the water outlet of the adjustable watering device for a better understanding by the technicians skillful in the arts.

FIG. 1 to FIG. 4 illustrate a spray unit 100 of a watering device, the spray unit 100 is rotatably installed on the base 200 of the watering device and mainly assembled by an adjusting member 10 and a mounting member 11 correspondingly. Multiple spray heads are set between the adjusting member 10 and the mounting member 11, the spray heads respectively have a water outlet and a water inlet between the adjusting member 10 and the mounting member 11, the mounting member 11 is connected to the water inlet side 101 of the base 200 of the watering device, and the water inlet side 101 is connected to a water supply. Thus, due to the relative rotation between the spray unit 100 and the base 200 of the watering device, one of the spray heads can be connected to the water inlet side 101 of the base 200, so that water from the water supply flows through the water inlet side 101 and inside of the rotor nozzle, and ejects out from the water outlet side 102.

One of the spray heads has structure of rotor nozzle, the structure of rotor nozzle consists of a housing 15, a rotor 20, a flow director 40. Wherein, the housing 15 is roughly a tubular in shape having its front end engaged to the inner wall of the adjusting member 10, so that the water outlet side 102 of the housing 15 located on the adjusting member 10, and the housing 15 has its rear end connected to the mounting member 11 for mutually defining a chamber 17 with a longitudinal interior.

The flow director 40 has an annular base 41 located on the rear opening of the housing 15 and the block 12 on the side wall of the mounting member 11, so that the flow director 40 and the bottom of the mounting member 11 are arranged in a partition formation. Besides, the flow director 40 has a center base 45 spaced from the annular base 41, a position rod 47 protruding from the center base 45 forwards to the direction of the water outlet 102, and multiple guide vanes 43 connecting to the inner side wall of the annular base 41 and the outer side wall of the center base 45, the guide vanes 43 are extending along the radial direction of the center base 45 and tangent to the center base 45 respectively at a predetermined angle, a swirl opening 46 is defined between the adjacent guide vanes 43. In other words, the swirl opening 46 is arc-shaped and penetrates the two opposite sides of the annular flow director 40.

the position rod 47 is aligned to a center of the chamber 17, the position rod 47 and the water outlet side 102 define a center axis of the chamber 17. The rotor 20 is installed inside the chamber 17 with its longitudinal axis tilted relative to the center axis of the chamber 17, and forms a hollow column having two ends as a water inlet 21 and a water outlet 22. Wherein, the rotor 20 has an inner wall fixed with multiple current blades 26 extending to the water inlet 21 in a crossover formation. The rotor 20 has a spherical end 27 disposed of a water outlet 22 connecting to the water outlet side 102 of the adjusting member 10, and the spherical end 27 and the water outlet side 102 form a complementary mechanism in a direction of the longitudinal axis of the rotor. Besides, the rotor 20 has its water inlet 21 confined between the inner wall of the chamber 17 and the annular track of the position rod 47 of the flow director 40 for the rotor 20 in an eccentric arrangement, leaning backward and outward, to the water outlet.

The present disclosure provides an embodiment, wherein the chamber 17 near the water outlet side 102 is a longitudinal interior with multiple stoppers 18 protruding on the inner wall in annular form, and a slot 19 is formed between the stoppers 18, that is, the stopper 18 defines a boundary of the slot 19. Multiple stop rods 281 are protruded radially on the spherical end 27 of the rotor 20 as guide members and are received inside the slot 19 in a radial direction of the rotor 20. Besides, each stopper 18 has a bevel on its surface for guiding the surface of the rotor 20 in tilt arrangement, the water outlet side (the spherical end 27, guide members 281) of the rotor 20 forms at least two annular position areas, the rotor 20 rotates steadily, in order to generate a centralized linear current spraying out from the water outlet 22 of the rotor 20 instead of the conical spurt produced by rotation of the conventional rotor.

It is worth mentioning that the position rod 47 of the flow director 40 is in a line with the water inlet side 101 and the water outlet side 102. A rod body 25 is extending from one end of the water inlet 21 of the rotor 20 along the rear end of the current blade 26 for locating on the outer wall of the position rod 47 to thereby steady the rotation track of the rotor 20. When water of the water supply flows to the swirl opening 46 of the flow director 40 from the water inlet side 101, tilt current generated in the chamber 17 drives the rotor 20 to rotate, fluids flows through the water inlet 21 of the rotor 20 to the water outlet side 102 of the spray unit 100 and swirling steam outputs by the rotation of the rotor 20.

Please refer to FIG. 5, it illustrates a spray unit of another watering device. In this embodiment, a bevel is set on the chamber near the water inlet side 101 for guiding the surface in rear of the rotor 20. The chamber near the water outlet side 102 has a longitudinal interior, and three stopper 18 protruding on its inner annular wall are arranged equiangular. Multiple slots 282 are arranged radially in an annular form on the water outlet of the rotor 20, the slots 282 are provided as the guide members for receiving the stoppers 18, in this way, the rotor 20 rotates steadily with its tilt arrangement.

The present disclosure provides an embodiment, wherein the number of the guide members 281, 282 is integer multiple of the number of the stoppers 18, to maintain rotational balance. However, the number of the stopper 18 also can be only one.
