Abstract

A shower jet outlet device and a shower head equipped therewith have a jet disk with at least one jet disk opening and a jet outlet element disposed in the jet disk opening. The jet outlet element is pot-shaped with an outlet-side bottom, a side wall and a hollow chamber delimited by the bottom and the side wall. The bottom faces in the jet outlet direction and includes fine jet openings. The bottom and the side wall are made of an elastic material and the jet outlet element is configured to deform by bulging of its bottom and/or its side wall, in response to fluid pressure in the hollow chamber when operating.
