In a multifunction hand shower the mode of operation is selected by a change-over mechanism which has a slide (56) which has essentially linear movement. This can be set in three different positions. The slide (56) is connected via a guide and cam mechanism (62, 65) to a first change-over device (37) which can be moved into two different positions. The first position is adopted by the first change-over device (37) in the first mode of operation and the second position in the two other modes of operation. A second change-over device (45) can also be moved backwards and forwards between two positions which correspond to the second and a third mode of operation of the shower. Here, a spring (49) forces the second change-over device (45) into a preferred position. Whether the second change-over device (45) reaches this preferred position depends upon the position of a stop (59, 60) which is attached to the slide (56). The slide (56) is moved for preference by a rocker-type manual actuator (53).

[ I claim:] [1.] Multifunction hand shower in which at least three different modes of operation can be selected in which different types of shower jets emerge, comprisinga) a housing;b) a shower base which seals the housing and which has numerous water outlet openings;c) a change-over mechanism to select the mode of operation which consists of:ca) a manual actuator;cb) at least one change-over device, controlled by the manual actuator, which can be moved into at least two different positions and in this way determines the mode of operation of the shower,characterized in that the change-over mechanism consists of:cc) a slide (56) which is contained in the housing (1) and can be moved translationally or rotationally by the manual actuator (53) and which can be set in three different positions corresponding to the modes of operation of the hand shower;cd) a first change-over device (37, 63) which can be moved by the slide (56) via a guide and cam mechanism (61, 62, 65) into two different positions, the first of which is adopted in the first mode of operation and the second in the two other modes of operation;ce) a second change-over device (45) which can be set in two different positions and is pushed into one of these positions by a spring (49), wherebycf) the slide (56) has a stop (59, 60) which in one position of the slide (56) holds the second change-over device (45) against the force of the spring (49) in the first position and in a second position of the slide (56) allows the spring (49) to force the second change-over device (45) into the second position.
