Abstract
The invention proposes a shower head, in particular for showers that are fixed in position, for example an overhead shower. The shower head has various options for the water to exit the jet disk. A switching device is provided to engage these different options individually or in combination. This may function in a way known as such with the use of sloping surfaces that slide along one another. The jet disk itself serves to actuate the switching device, and pressure is exerted by the user in the direction opposite that in which the water jets exit.
