Abstract
A shower device includes a spray head and a massage assembly removably coupled to the spray head. The massage assembly includes a massage brush head and a driving mechanism for driving the massage brush head to move with respect to the spray head. The driving mechanism is pluggably mounted into the mounting opening. The massage brush head is removably coupled to an output shaft of the driving mechanism. The massage brush head at least partially protrudes from the spray head. In some embodiments, the massage assembly may be used independent from the spray head, and different massage brush heads may be used based on user preferences. The integration of multiple functions on a shower device improves user conveniences, expands device performance, and enhances the shower experience.
