Abstract

A shower head outlet switching device includes a fixing portion having an inlet waterway and at least two diversion waterways; a switching mechanism within the fixing portion and including a water diversion plate that is movable with respect to the fixing portion; a first driving mechanism; and a valve shaft that is slidable with respect to the fixing portion; a driving mechanism including an operation button movably connected to the fixing portion that causes the valve shaft to slide; and a second driving mechanism connected to the valve shaft; and an elastic body directly connected to the driving mechanism and to the fixing portion to reset the driving mechanism. The first driving mechanism is connected to the water diversion plate and the valve shaft so that, when the valve shaft slides one round, the water diversion plate rotates to connect one diversion waterway to the inlet waterway.
