Abstract
A shower head includes a main body, a locking member, a water inlet tube, a water outlet tube, a water outlet sleeve, and a retaining cap. Thus, the water outlet sleeve is freely rotatable relative to the main body to adjust the water outlet directions of the shower head so as to satisfy the user's practical requirements. In addition, the water outlet sleeve has an upper end formed with an annular flange rested on the first O-ring of the water outlet tube and a lower end having a resting edge rested on the second O-ring of the water outlet tube to reduce the friction during rotation of the water outlet sleeve, so that the water outlet sleeve is rotatable easily and smoothly.
