Abstract

A spray head (1) for an ablutionary appliance has a spray plate (5) provided with an array of holes (7) for discharge of water and a cleaner plate (11) located behind the spray plate (5) and having an array of pins (13) corresponding to the array of holes (7) in the spray plate (5). The spray plate (5) is biased to a first (self-cleaning) position for cleaning the holes 7 with the pins (13). The spray plate (5) is movable from the first position away from the cleaner plate to a second (spray) position providing clearance between the pins on the cleaner plate and the holes in the spray plate when pressure of water supplied to the spray head overcomes the biasing of the spray plate (5) for water to flow through the holes (7). The spray plate (5) is manually movable from the first position towards the cleaner plate to a third position (the "manual cleaning" position) for cleaning the holes (7) with the pins (13) where the pins (13) extend further into the holes (7) in third position than in the first position.
