ABSTRACT:
A hand held shower including a spray head operable to selectively discharge a continuous spray or a cyclically interrupted pulsating spray. The spray head contains two separate groups of discharge orifices, one group operable to discharge a continuous spray, and the second group operable to discharge a cyclically interrupted pulsating spray. The spray head comprises a housing forming a chamber; a water inlet plate having two sets of supply orifices, a radially outer steady spray supply set and a radially inner pulsating spray supply set, closing the forward end of the chamber and fixedly mounted in the housing; a face plate having a wall confronting the water inlet plate and having two sets of supply perforations therein, a radially outer steady spray supply set and a radially inner pulsating spray supply set; the face plate being mounted for limited arcuate movement with respect to the water inlet plate so that either the radially outer steady spray supply perforations can be aligned with the radially outer steady spray supply orifices in the water inlet plate, or so that the radially inner pulsating spray supply perforation can be aligned with the radially inner pulsating spray supply orifice in the water inlet plate. The radially outer perforations of the face plate are in communication with an annular chamber containing the continuous spray discharge orifices. The radially inner perforations of the face plate are in communication with a cylindrical chamber disposed radially inwardly of the annular chamber. A spinner having radially extending vanes and a partially closed front end is rotatably mounted in said cylindrical chamber. Flow through the radially inner perforations impinges upon the vanes to drive the spinner in rotation. Rotation of the spinner, due to its partially closed end, provides a cyclical flow to a group of discharge orifices in a spinner cover which is fixedly mounted over the open, front end of the cylindrical chamber. This cyclical flow through these discharge orifices provides a pulsating spray.
