In a second embodiment of embodiment I of the present invention, the first panel is a polygonal panel, the second panel is a polygonal panel, the second panel can be located in and close to an outer peripheral side of the first panel after being flipped with the rotational cooperation of the support arm, which the outer peripheral side can be a left and right lateral side or an upper and lower lateral side, so as to enable the first panel and the second panel to form a new polygonal panel. The following is an example in which both the first panel and the second panel are quadrilateral, with specific reference to FIG. 7 of the accompanying drawings of the specification, which shows that the second panel can be located below or above after it is flipped in conjunction with the rotation of the support arm, and can be directly combined to form a larger water outlet panel 100. Similarly, with specific reference to FIG. 8 of the accompanying drawings of the specification, in this embodiment, the first panel and the second panel can be rotated relative to each other, and in the first state, the second panel is located below the first panel and is in a vertically relative flush state, and when it is necessary to combine the two panels, the second panel rotates relative to the support arm by 180°, so that the second panel is located underneath the outer periphery side of the first panel, and then the support arm is flipped to place the second panel on the peripheral side of the first panel, so that the two are in a state of horizontal relative alignment.

With reference to FIGS. 9-10 of the accompanying drawings of the specification, in the embodiment II of the present invention, one end of the support arm is rotationally connected to the first body, and the other end of the support arm is capable of being flipped peripherally next to the first body, where the axis of rotation of both ends of the support arm is in the longitudinal direction; after the support arm is flipped, the second panel is capable of being located next to the periphery of the first panel to form a new water outlet pattern, or the first panel is added to the second panel to form a larger water outlet panel. In the present embodiment, the support arm is rotated relative to parallel to the wall, so that the second panel is moved relative to the first panel, so that the second panel can be combined with the first panel to form a larger water outlet panel 100, or these two are arranged horizontally to form a new combination of the water outlet mode, the existing combination of the water outlet is basically arranged in a vertical direction, which it is not possible to form a coverage in the width direction, and the present embodiment can achieve a coverage in the width direction, and a large-sized water outlet in the width direction can be realized in the case of a small-sized water outlet panel.

With reference to FIG. 9 of the accompanying drawings of the specification, in the first embodiment of embodiment I of the present invention, the first panel is provided with a vacancy portion 13, wherein when the second panel is rotated with the support arm, the second panel can be placed within the vacancy portion, and the contour of the second panel can be adapted to the contour of the vacancy portion.

In the second embodiment of embodiment II of the present invention, the first panel is a polygonal panel and the second panel is a polygonal panel, the second panel being able to be located on and close to the side of the first panel after being flipped with the rotational cooperation of the support arm, which the outer peripheral side can be a left and right lateral side or an upper and lower lateral side, so as to enable the first panel and the second panel to form a new polygonal panel. The following is an example in which both the first panel and the second panel are quadrilateral, with specific reference to FIG. 10 of the accompanying drawings of the specification, when the support arm is turned so that the support arm is level with the ground, so that the first panel and the second panel are in lateral distribution, thus forming a new water outlet pattern. Between the first panel and the second panel there is a vacant place, and during the specific shower, the head position can be located under the vacant place, which allows the two panels to discharge water and flush people's shoulders or extended arms (the water flow is not suitable for hitting the head), forming a massage effect. At the same time, it can also change the direction of the first and/or second panel's discharge, allowing people to have a better experience. Similarly, the first panel can be directed towards the head for water discharge, and the second panel can be directed towards the arms or other areas for spraying, allowing a water outlet device to have multiple angles and directions for water discharge, which greatly improves the user's shower experience. Of course, the first panel and the second panel can also be overlapped, and with reference to FIG. 11 of the accompanying drawings of the specification, in essentially the same manner as embodiment I, in one use, the second panel is capable of being rotated relative to the second joint, which is used to adapt tubing that is connected to the second body.

In the present invention, the second joint and the second panel may also be connected by a magnetic rear snap, which allows the second panel to rotate around the second connector, which is prior art and will not be elaborated in detail.
