Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a shower shoe for hanging a shower head and holding it on a wall or the like.

[Prior Art] A shower shoe for hanging a shower head and holding it on a wall surface, etc. is made up of a back plate part attached to a wall surface etc. and a hook part protruding forward from the back plate part. is more widely used than before.

In such a conventional shower head, the holding hole of the shower head is provided in the vertical direction of the hooking part, and the tip of the hooking part is opened beyond the holding hole to serve as a hose insertion part, so that the hooked shower head can be inserted. When removing the shower head, the shower head is lifted upward, pulled out from the hook, and the hose portion is passed through the hose insertion portion and taken out.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] With conventional shower hogs, in order to remove the shower head from a locked position, the shower head must be lifted upwards, so if the shower user is short, he or she may not be able to reach the shower head sufficiently. Extremely difficult to remove. Furthermore, when installing a shelf, towel rack, etc. above, it is necessary to take into consideration the space required for removing the shower head, and there is also a drawback that there is a design restriction on the upper part of the shower head.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The shower hoist of the present invention includes a shower hoof body and a hook cover for attaching the shower hoof body to a wall surface. It is characterized by being provided with an elastic member that is flexible and provides a force to return it to the vertical posture direction.

[Function] In the shower hook of the present invention, the hook body can swing freely in a vertical plane with respect to the hook cover, so when removing the shower head from the hook body, the shower head can be removed by rotating the hook body towards you. can be extracted diagonally upward or horizontally.

The shower hook of the present invention is equipped with an elastic member that applies force to return the hook body to the vertical position, so that after the shower head is removed, the hook body automatically returns to its original position. Moreover, when the shower head is hooked, the hook body does not swing and can stably hold the shower head.

[Examples] The present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to embodiments shown in the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a plan view of a shower hoof according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along the line -- in FIG.

As shown in the figure, the shower hoof 1 of the present invention includes a shower hoof body 2 and a hook cover 3 for attaching the shower hoof body 2 to a wall surface. A showerhead holding hole 11 is provided in the showerhead body 2 in the vertical direction, and the distal end side of the showerhead body 2 of this holding hole 11 is opened to provide a hose insertion portion 12a. On the other hand, the hook cover 3 is attached to a wall surface etc., and has screw holes 1 for fixing it to the wall surface etc.
3 and 14 are provided so as to penetrate therethrough. The hook cover 3 is constructed to cover the shower hook body 2, and its tip side is opened to form a hose insertion portion 12b like the shower hook body 2.

In the present invention, the shower hook main body 2 is attached to the hook cover 3 by a pivot member 4 so as to be swingable in a vertical plane.

Below, the structure of the pivot member 4 provided in the shower hoof of this embodiment will be explained.

3 is an enlarged plan cross-sectional view of the portion shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 4 is an exploded perspective view of the pivot member 4 (however, the coil spring 20 is not shown in FIG. 4),
The figure is an enlarged view of a cross section taken along the line of FIG. 3.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the pivot member 4 of this embodiment includes a spindle 17, a stopper 18, a nut 19, and a torsion coil spring 2 as an elastic member.
0, and the spindle 17 consists of a tip end portion 21 with a square cross section, a body portion 22 with a cylindrical shape, and a rear end portion 23 with a hexagonal cross section. The stopper 18 consists of a head 24 with a small diameter and a hexagonal cross section and a base 25 with a large diameter and a hexagonal cross section.

As shown in FIG. 5, the coil spring 20 has a rear end 23 of the spindle 17 and a head 2 of the stopper 18.
A notch 20a that engages with the hexagonal cross-section ridges 23a and 24a of No. 4 extends in the axial direction of the coil, and the engagement between the notch 20a and the ridges 23a and 24a allows the coil spring 20 to be connected to the rear end. The portion 23 and the head 24 are each configured to be integrally fixed.

Such a pivot member 4, as shown in FIG.
The tip 21 of the spindle 17 is engaged with a groove 15 having a square cross section provided in the shower hook body 2, and the other portion is engaged with the hole 1 of the hook cover 3.
6 and installed.

The hook cover 3 has a cylindrical hole 16a with a diameter slightly larger than the body of the spindle 17, a hole 16b with a hexagonal cross section that engages with the base 25 of the stopper 18, and a female hole so that the nut 19 can be screwed into the hole. It consists of a hole 16c provided with a screw. The body 22 of the spindle 17 is rotatable within the hole 16a, while the base 25 of the stopper 18 is rotated within the hole 16a.
b, and then the nut 19 to the hole 16c.
By screwing in, the stopper 18 is fixed within the grooves 16b and 16a. Note that the hole 16
A locking portion 22a of the body portion 22 is provided protruding toward the inner circumferential side.

In the showerhead 1 having such a structure, the shower head A is hung on the showerhead body 2 as shown in FIG. When removing the shower head A, if you grasp the tip of the shower head A (upper end in the figure) and pull it toward you, the shower head body 2 will rotate about the pivot member 4, and the shower head A will move toward the front. Lean. Therefore, the shower head A can be easily removed from the shower shoe 1 by pulling it toward the front. The coil spring 25 is twisted by the rotation of the shower shoe main body 2 and becomes in a power storage state. Therefore, shower head A is connected to shower head body 2.
When it is pulled out, the elastic force of the coil spring 25 causes the shower shoe main body 2 to return to its original vertical position.

Note that the illustrated example relates to one embodiment of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the illustrated example in any way.

For example, there are no particular limitations on the shape of the shower hoof body or the hook cover, and a compression coil spring may be provided on the rear end side (wall side) of the shower hoof body 2 as an elastic member.

[Effects of the invention] As detailed above, in the shower head of the present invention, when pulling out the shower head that is hung on the shower head, it is possible to pull out the shower head diagonally upward or horizontally by rotating the shower head towards you. can. Furthermore, after the shower head is removed, the shower foot body can automatically return to its original position due to the urging force of the elastic member, and when the shower head is engaged, the shower foot body does not swing and remains stable. can be used to hold the shower head.

Therefore, even a short user can easily pull out the shower head and use it comfortably. Further, since a shelf or the like can be provided above the shower head without considering the space for removing the shower head, design restrictions are relaxed.
