Abstract
A shower head includes a handle and a head portion. The head portion includes shower holes. The handle includes an upstream bubble generator that generates minute bubbles in water. The head portion includes a downstream bubble generator that generates minute bubbles in water in the same manner as the upstream bubble generator. The upstream bubble generator includes a constriction and a tapered portion. The downstream bubble generator has a swirling flow mode. Since minute bubbles are generated on the upstream and downstream sides, the amount of minute bubbles mixed in water becomes larger. This allows for showering by effectively using the function of minute bubbles.

A shower head, comprising a head portion that includes shower holes,
- wherein minute bubble generators are disposed at positions on an upstream side and a downstream side in a water passage, wherein
- the shower holes include a mist shower hole configured to release a mist shower,
- the water passage includes an accommodation recess, the mist shower hole extending through a bottom of the accommodation recess,
- the accommodation recess accommodates a swirling flow generating member,
- the swirling flow generating member has an opening at an end closer to the mist shower hole,
- drawing grooves are disposed on an outer circumference of the swirling flow generating member
- an end of each of the drawing grooves includes a guide opening, the guide opening being connected to an internal space of the swirling flow generating member, and
- the minute bubble generator on the downstream side includes the accommodation recess and the swirling flow generating member.
A shower head, comprising a head portion that includes shower holes, wherein
- minute bubble generators are disposed at positions on an upstream side and a downstream side in a water passage,
- a bifurcated portion is disposed at a part of the water passage, and
- a shower switch mechanism is disposed in a narrow section of the bifurcated portion.
