    Abstract: A shower jet outlet nozzle includes a hollow chamber (1), a lateral wall (2) delimiting the hollow chamber transversely to a nozzle longitudinal axis (DL), and a bottom (3) delimiting the hollow chamber in the direction of the nozzle longitudinal axis on an outlet side, which bottom is made of an elastic material and in which a jet outlet opening structure (4S) including one or a plurality of jet outlet openings (4) and having an open initial configuration, wherein the bottom is configured with the jet outlet opening structure thereof, under the effect of a shower fluid operating pressure in the hollow chamber, to deform in an elastically resilient manner and thereby to steadily increase an opening cross-section of the jet outlet opening structure with increasing shower fluid operating pressure within a normal operating pressure range. According to one aspect, the jet outlet opening structure (4S) is spaced apart from the lateral wall (2), and the bottom (3) on an inner side (3I) and/or on an outer side (3A) has a weakening pattern (5) with a lesser wall thickness as compared to an adjacent region of the bottom, wherein the weakening pattern is designed to deform in an elastically resilient manner under the effect of the fluid operating pressure in the hollow chamber (1).
