PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a water discharge device that ensures sufficient clarity of water flow that has been discharged, maintains a linear flow over a long distance after being discharged, and offers a sufficiently high-class feeling, a high-quality wash feeling, and a silent water flow.SOLUTION: The present invention relates to a water discharge device (2) for discharging a shower of supplied heated water, and includes: a water discharge device body (6); a rectification chamber (14a) installed inside the water discharge device body, into which the supplied heated water flows; a rectification member (18) arranged in the rectification chamber and having a plurality of micro-pores (18a); and a water spray member (20) provided with a plurality of water spray nozzles (22b) for discharging the heated water that has passed through the rectification member. A surface of the rectification member has been made irregular by surface roughening treatment, so that a contacting surface area with an air bubble that is contained in the heated water and has adhered on the surface may be reduced and the air bubble is separated readily.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 【課題】吐出された水流に十分な透明感があり、吐出後、長い距離に亘って線状の流れが維持され、十分な高級感、上質な洗い感、静粛な水流を得ることができる吐水装置を提供する。【解決手段】本発明は、供給された湯水をシャワー吐水する吐水装置(2)であって、吐水装置本体(6)と、この吐水装置本体内に設けられ、供給された湯水が流入する整流室(14a)と、この整流室内に配置され、多数の微細孔(18a)を備えた整流部材(18)と、この整流部材を通過した湯水を吐出させるための複数の散水ノズル(22b)が設けられた散水部材(20)と、を有し、整流部材の表面には、付着した湯水中の気泡との接触面積が小さくなり、気泡が容易に剥離されるように、粗面化処理により凹凸が設けられていることを特徴としている。【選択図】図２
