Abstract: An articulating shower assembly in provided. The articulating shower assembly includes a linkage assembly operable between a first position and a second position. A spray head is coupled to the linkage assembly and is operable between the first position and the second position. A handle is pivotally coupled to the linkage assembly such that the linkage assembly is configured to transition between the first position and the second position in response to a force applied to the handle. In some embodiments, the linkage assembly includes a first link arm, a second link arm, and a pivot body, where the pivot body is fluidly coupled to the spray head. The first link arm may be rigid while the second link arm is structured to extend and collapse as the linkage assembly transitions between the first position and the second position.

Abstract: A shower system for controlling a spray pattern of water includes a sprayer and a control device. The sprayer includes a housing and an electronic diverter. The housing includes a water inlet and a plurality of water outlets configured to discharge water from the housing to form a plurality of different spray patterns. The electronic diverter is located within the housing and configured to automatically divert the water to different sets of the plurality of water outlets to form the plurality of different spray patterns responsive to an instruction signal. The control device is separate from the sprayer and is configured to provide the instruction signal to the electronic diverter to cause the electronic diverter to change between the plurality of different spray patterns.
