Abstract
A showerhead with a massage engine is disclosed. The showerhead may include a housing defining a chamber in fluid communication with a fluid inlet and a massage mode assembly received within the chamber. The massage mode assembly may include a drive gear comprising a plurality of drive teeth, wherein the drive gear rotates due to fluid from the fluid inlet impacting the drive gear, and a driven gear comprising a plurality of driven teeth that mesh with the drive teeth of the drive gear, such that movement of the drive gear causes the driven gear to rotate, wherein the drive gear rotates faster than the driven gear rotates to selectively direct fluid from the fluid inlet to one or more nozzles.
