example 1

[0030]Referring to FIGS. 1 to 5, a shower door assembly is shown in part which comprises a stationary frame 100 having a guiding groove 101 and a movable frame 200 having a first engaging element 201. The stationary frame 100 has a through hole 102 through which the stationary frame 100 is fixed to a surface of a wall by using such as fasteners 103. The movable frame 200 is provided with a piece of glass 202. In the guiding groove 101, at least one adjusting slider 300 is placed which is able to slide along the groove. Each of the adjusting slider 300 has a second engaging element 301. When the movable frame 200 is moved towards the stationary frame 100 and the relative position between the movable frame 200 and the stationary frame 100 is determined, the first engaging element 201 and the second engaging element 301 are engaged with each other. In the present example, two adjusting sliders 300 are provided. The shower door assembly further comprises a filler 400 disposed in a space...

example 2

[0038]As shown in FIG. 7, the present example is substantively equal to example 1 except that the guiding groove 101 is disposed at middle of the stationary frame and spaced from either side of the stationary frame 100.

example 3

[0039]As shown in FIG. 8, the present example is substantively equal to example 2 except that the movable frame 200 is sandwiched between sidewalls of the stationary frame 100.

Abstract

A shower door assembly is provided which comprises a stationary frame having a guiding groove, and a movable frame having a first engaging element, wherein the shower door assembly further comprises at least one adjusting slider slidably mounted in the guiding groove, the at least one adjusting slider has a second engaging element for engagement with the first engaging element when the movable frame is moved towards the stationary frame, and the shower door assembly further comprises a filler for being disposed in a space formed between the stationary frame and the movable frame when a relative position between both frames are determined.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]The present application claims the benefit of Chinese utility model application No. 201220570545.2 filed on 1 Nov. 2012, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to a shower door and, in particular, to a fast mounting structure used for shower doors.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]Conventional shower doors comprise a stationary frame for fixing to a wall and a movable frame that is capable of adjusting its position in relative to the stationary frame such that both frames are properly engagement with each other. In order to engage both frames, the frames have to be aligned and drilled and fasteners are used to pass through the drilled holes and fasten the frames together. The assembly method of this kind is inconvenient to operation and quite time consuming. In addition, the drilling operation can possibly make damage to the materials made of the frames, for exa...
