ABSTRACT:
The present invention is for a showerhead selectively operable to produce a plurality of different streams or different number of streams, enabling the user to select (a) a set of streams having a large diameter, rich in bubbles, when the water pressure is high, (b) a set of streams having a smaller diameter full of bubbles when the water pressure is low, or (c) a spray instead of the bubbly stream. This capability is achieved by having an upstream disc with openings therein for directing the water downstreamwardly in a number of jets. In the path of the jets downstream from said disc there is a rotatable member which can be selectively positioned by the user and which has a number of outlet chambers therethrough, and two or more screen members attached thereto. By adjusting the rotatable member amongst its predetermined positions, the user may select one of several different types of output streams from the showerhead. The showerheads according to this invention may include two co-axial tubular members which interact to permit or prohibit water flow to some of the openings when the showerhead is employed at low water pressures. The present showerhead can be used over an extended range of water pressures to provide large or small bubbly outflows depending on pressure. With the invention, the largest number of bubbly outflows is made possible.
