A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11883834B2) discloses a handheld spray wand with a unique design. The spray wand includes a fluid inlet, a handle grip, and a controller that can be moved to control fluid flow from the inlet to the nozzle portion. The nozzle portion consists of two arrays of nozzles, with the first array fluidly coupled to the fluid inlet in one position of the controller, while the second array is decoupled. In another position, this configuration is reversed, allowing for versatile water flow control.

Furthermore, the patent also covers a handheld showerhead with similar features, including a handle portion connected to a nozzle portion with multiple arrays of nozzles. The movable controller in this showerhead allows for varying water flow rates by adjusting the width of the mode aperture. The design of the showerhead ensures a consistent and efficient water flow pattern, with the nozzles arranged in parallel lines and staggered to create a specific water pattern. Overall, these patented inventions offer innovative solutions for controlling water flow in handheld spray wands and showerheads, enhancing user experience and efficiency in water usage.
