ABSTRACT:
A shower head attachment has a liquid detergent reservoir and facilitates a "soap," "rinse," and "off" cycle. The attachment has a body provided with a rotary valve having a transverse port. The port is alined, selectively, with a first or second longitudinal inclined passageway formed in the body forwardly of the valve. A third passageway of critical internal diameter communicates the first passageway with an opening formed in a depending neck on the body and acts as an aspirating passageway. A sleeve is secured within the opening and carries a depending feed tube. The feed tube extends into a reservoir or bottle of liquid detergent that is removably mounted on the depending neck of the body, externally of the sleeve. The sleeve has a valve seat above the feed tube, and a ball check valve is seated on the valve seat. The valve carries an external handle; and the ends of the handle carry depending cables, the ends of which are provided with respective tabs. A pin on the body is received in an arcuate slot in the handle to limit the rotary movement of the handle and valve. The liquid detergent is biodegradable and cooperates with the aspirating passageway to prevent clogging. It is critical that the liquid detergent has the proper viscosity relative to the internal diameter of the aspirating passageway so that the detergent is aspirated out of the bottle and into the shower head attachment at the desired rate.
