[0034] Referring to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4The shower door device comprises a door frame 100, a movable door 110 and a guide block mechanism 200, the movable door 110 is movably connected to the door frame 100 and can move left and right relative to the door frame 100, the upper side and / or the lower side of the movable door 110 is provided with a guide groove 111, the guide block mechanism 200 is arranged corresponding to the guide groove 111 and comprises a base 210 and a guide block body 230 located in the guide groove 111, the base 210 is fixedly connected with the door frame 100, the guide block body 230 is rotationally connected with the base 210 and the rotation axis is parallel to the moving direction of the movable door 110, the outer periphery of the guide block body 230 is provided with radially protruding guide portions 231, the guide portions 231 are provided in plurality, the plurality of guide portions 231 are arranged around the rotation axis of the guide block body 230 and the protruding degrees of at least part of the guide portions 231 are different from each other, a rotation limiting structure is arranged between the guide block body 230 and the base 210, the rotation limiting structure can limit the relative rotation between the guide block body 230 and the base 210, when the rotation limiting structure releases the rotation limitation between the guide block body 230 and the base 210, the guide block body 230 can rotate to make different guide portions 231 cooperate with the guide groove 111.

[0035] It can be understood that, as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the door frame 100 is connected with a fixed door 120, the movable door 110 is located at the rear side of the fixed door 120 and movably connected with the door frame 100, can move left and right relative to the door frame 100, the handle 112 is arranged on the movable door 110, so as to facilitate the user to operate the movable door 110 to move left and right through the handle 112, the guide groove 111 is arranged at the lower side of the movable door 110 and extends along the left and right direction, the front and back direction is the width direction of the guide groove 111, the guide block mechanism 200 is correspondingly arranged at the lower side of the door frame 100, the base 210 is connected with the door frame 100, the guide block body 230 is located in the guide groove 111, since the guide block body 230 can rotate relative to the base 210 and the rotation axis is parallel to the moving direction of the movable door 110, and different guide portions 231 have different protrusion degrees, therefore, the distance from the contour of different guide portions 231 to the rotation axis is different, so that the guide block body 230 correspondingly has multiple different matching width sizes, and better adapt to guide grooves 111 of different width sizes; when adjusting the matching condition between the guide block body 230 and the guide groove 111, first, the rotation limiting between the guide block body 230 and the base 210 is released by the rotation limiting structure, the corresponding guide portion 231 is matched with the guide groove 111 by rotating the guide block body 230, which is beneficial to realize better matching effect between the guide block mechanism 200 and the guide groove 111, reduce the possibility of too loose or too tight matching between the two, and improve the adaptability; after the adjustment is completed, the relative rotation between the guide block body 230 and the base 210 is limited by the rotation limiting structure, the matching relationship between the guide block mechanism 200 and the guide groove 111 is stabilized, the guide block body 230 is prevented from loosening and rotating in the process of contacting the guide groove 111 and the guide portion 231, the matching between the two is affected, and the movable door 110 obtains better moving guide effect, which is convenient to use.

[0036] In actual application, the movable door 110 can be provided with multiple, the specific structure of the base 210, the guide block body 230 and the rotation limiting structure can be set according to actual use needs, which will not be described in detail here, and will be described in detail below.

[0037] In some embodiments, the outer wall of the guide portion 231 is a curved surface structure, every two guide portions 231 are a group, and the two guide portions 231 in the same group are symmetrical relative to the rotation axis of the guide block body 230.

[0038] It can be understood that, as Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the guide block body 230 has a columnar structure, and six guide portions 231 are provided on the same guide block body 230. Each pair of guide portions 231 forms a group, and the two guide portions 231 in the same group have the same degree of protrusion and are rotationally symmetrical relative to the rotation axis of the guide block body 230. This makes the distance between the outer contours of the two guide portions 231 in the same group a width-fitting dimension of the guide block body 230. Therefore, the same guide block body 230 has three different width-fitting dimensions to accommodate three different width-sized guide grooves 111. The outer wall of the guide portion 231 has a curved surface structure. When it mates with the inner wall of the guide groove 111, the curved surface structure reduces the contact area with the inner wall of the guide groove 111, reducing the friction between them and facilitating the movement of the movable door 110. In practical applications, in addition to the above structure, the guide block body 230 can also adopt a cam-like gradient outer contour structure. In this case, multiple guide portions 231 are provided around its rotation axis, enabling stepless adjustment of the width-fitting dimension. The specific dimensions can be set according to actual usage needs.

[0039] In some embodiments, a central shaft 220 is provided on the base 210, and the guide block body 230 is rotatably connected to the base 210 through the central shaft 220. The rotation limiting structure includes a limiting part 221 and a limiting groove 232. One of the limiting part 221 and the limiting groove 232 is provided on the central shaft 220, and the other is correspondingly provided on the guide block body 230. The limiting part 221 and / or the limiting groove 232 are provided in multiples and are distributed at intervals around the rotation axis of the guide block body 230. The guide block body 230 can move left and right relative to the central shaft 220, so that the limiting part 221 can be engaged or disengaged from the limiting groove 232, thereby correspondingly limiting the rotation of the guide block body 230 relative to the central shaft 220 or releasing the restriction.

[0040] Understandably, such as Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, when restricting the relative rotation between the guide block body 230 and the central shaft 220, the limiting part 221 is engaged with the corresponding limiting groove 232, so that the guide block body 230 and the central shaft 220 are relatively fixed, thus restricting rotation; when releasing the rotation restriction, the guide block body 230 is operated to make the limiting part 221 disengage from the limiting groove 232, thereby releasing the rotation restriction between the guide block body 230 and the central shaft 222. Its structure is simple and convenient for restricting and releasing rotation restrictions.

[0041] In practical applications, in addition to the above structure, bolts can also be installed on the guide block body 230 or the central shaft 220. The bolts pass through one of them and abut against the other. When the relative rotation between the two is restricted, the bolts on one of them are tightened to press the bolts against the other, thereby achieving rotation restriction. When the rotation restriction is released, the bolts are loosened to release the pressure of the bolts on the other, thereby restoring the rotational relationship between the two. The specific structural form of the rotation restriction structure can also be changed according to the actual use needs.

[0042] Specifically, the limiting part 221 is provided on the central axis 220, the limiting groove 232 is correspondingly provided on the guide block body 230, the guide block body 230 is provided with a clearance position 233, the limiting groove 232 is provided with multiple grooves and all of them are connected to the clearance position 233, when the limiting part 221 is disengaged from the limiting groove 232, the limiting part 221 enters the clearance position 233.

[0043] Understandably, such as Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the upper and lower sides of the guide block body 230 are provided with limiting structures. The end of the central shaft 220 is inserted into the guide block body 230. The limiting part 221 is provided on the central shaft 220, and the limiting groove 232 is correspondingly provided on the guide block body 230. There are multiple limiting grooves 232, all of which are connected to the clearance position 233. The multiple limiting grooves 232 are distributed around the rotation axis of the guide block body 230, corresponding to the positions of multiple guide parts 231. In this embodiment, since there are three sets of guide parts 231, there are also three corresponding limiting grooves 232, which is conducive to the accurate adjustment of three different width matching dimensions; limiting the guide block body 230 When the 30 rotates, the limiting part 221 engages with one of the limiting grooves 232. When the rotation restriction is released, the operating guide block body 230 moves in the left and right direction, causing the limiting part 221 to move out of the limiting groove 232 and enter the clearance position 233. At this time, the guide block body 230 can rotate relative to the central axis 220, and its rotation range is limited by the clearance position 233 to avoid excessive rotation. After the guide part 231 that cooperates with the guide groove 111 is rotated and adjusted, the guide block body 230 is reset and moved in the left and right direction. The limiting part 221 moves into the limiting groove 232 corresponding to the position, thereby restricting the rotation of the guide block body 230.

[0044] In actual application, the limiting part 221 can also be arranged on the guide block body 230, and the limiting groove 232 is arranged on the central shaft 220. The limiting part 221 can be arranged in plurality, and the limiting groove 232 is arranged in one, so that different limiting parts 221 are clamped into the limiting groove 232 to limit the rotation of the guide block body 230 after adjustment. Alternatively, the limiting part 221 and the limiting groove 232 are arranged in plurality, and a structure similar to face gear is formed. When the two face gears are engaged, the rotation between the guide block body 230 and the central shaft 220 is limited. When the two face gears are separated, the rotation is released. The specific changes can be made according to the actual use needs.

[0045] Further, the first elastic member 222 is arranged between the central shaft 220 and the guide block body 230, and the first elastic member 222 acts on the guide block body 230, so that the limiting part 221 can be clamped into the limiting groove 232 under the action of the first elastic member 222.

[0046] It can be understood that, as shown in Figures 6 to 9 , the first elastic member 222 is a spring, and the left and right ends of the first elastic member 222 act on the guide block body 230 and the central shaft 220, respectively. By arranging the first elastic member 222, the limiting part 221 can be clamped into the limiting groove 232 under the action of the first elastic member 222. On the one hand, when the limiting part 221 is separated from the limiting groove 232 by pressing the guide block body 230 in the left-right direction, the guide block body 230 can be moved back to the original position by the first elastic member 222 after the pressing is released, which is convenient for operation. On the other hand, the first elastic member 222 makes the limiting part 221 have the tendency to be clamped into the limiting groove 232, so that the two are not easy to separate, which is convenient for maintaining the rotation limiting relationship and reducing the possibility of loosening and rotating the guide block body 230.

[0047] In some embodiments, the guide block body 230 is arranged in two and is spaced apart in the left-right direction. It can be understood that, as shown in Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, the two guide block bodies 230 are arranged at intervals along the left-right direction. In this embodiment, referring to the above description, the same guide block body 230 can have three different width matching sizes, such as large, medium and small sizes. When the guide block mechanism 200 is too loose in matching with the guide groove 111, both of the two guide block bodies 230 can be adjusted to have the large size to match with the guide groove 111, thereby greatly reducing the matching gap. When the guide block mechanism 200 is relatively loose in matching with the guide groove 111, one of the two guide block bodies 230 can be adjusted to have the large size, and the other can be adjusted to have the medium size or the small size to match with the guide groove 111, thereby better adapting to the matching gap. Similarly, when the guide block mechanism 200 is too tight in matching with the guide groove 111, both of the two guide block bodies 230 can be adjusted to have the small size to match with the guide groove 111, thereby avoiding excessive extrusion. When the guide block mechanism 200 is relatively tight in matching with the guide groove 111, one of the two guide block bodies 230 can be adjusted to have the small size, and the other can be adjusted to have the medium size to match with the guide groove 111, thereby better adapting to the guide groove 111. By arranging the two guide block bodies 230, the two guide block bodies 230 can be matched by different sizes to adapt to various matching conditions with the guide groove 111, thereby further improving the adaptability. In actual application, the guide block body 230 can also be arranged as only one or multiple, which can be set according to actual use needs.

[0048] In some embodiments, the base 210 is provided with a connecting portion 211, the central shaft 220 penetrates the connecting portion 211 and is rotationally connected with the two guide block bodies 230 at both ends, and the two guide block bodies 230 are provided with a clutching structure and can be linked or unlinked through the clutching structure. When the two guide block bodies 230 are linked, the two guide block bodies 230 can rotate synchronously. When the two guide block bodies 230 are unlinked, the two guide block bodies 230 can rotate individually.

[0049] As can be understood, Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the central shaft 220 penetrates the connecting portion 211 along the left-right direction and is rotationally connected with the two guide block bodies 230 at both ends. The lower side of the base 210 is provided with a locking member 212, which is a threaded member. By tightening the locking member 212, the locking member 212 can be pressed against the central shaft 220, thereby limiting the movement of the central shaft 220 and improving the connection reliability.

[0050] If the two guide block bodies 230 cannot be connected, when adjusting the guide block body 230 on the left side, the movable door 110 needs to be moved to the right side first, so that the guide block body 230 on the left side is close to the sealing plate on the left side of the guide groove 111, and then the sealing plate on the left side is disassembled to adjust the guide block body 230 on the left side. Subsequently, the movable door 110 needs to be moved back to the left side, the sealing plate on the right side of the guide groove 111 is disassembled, and then the guide block body 230 on the right side can be adjusted. The adjustment is more troublesome.

[0051] By setting the clutch structure, the two guide block bodies 230 can be connected or disconnected, so that the two guide block bodies 230 can be adjusted synchronously or individually, and the rotation adjustment of the two guide block bodies 230 can be realized on one side, reducing the trouble of repeatedly moving the movable door 110 and disassembling the sealing plate of the guide groove 111, and facilitating adjustment and use.

[0052] Specifically, the center shaft 220 is internally provided with a left-right through clutch channel 223, and the clutch structure includes a second elastic member 240 and a clutch member 250. The second elastic member 240 and the clutch member 250 are both provided with two and are respectively connected with the two guide block bodies 230 one by one to form two guide block groups. The guide block group has a first position and a second position relative to the center shaft 220. When the guide block group is located at the first position, the limiting portion 221 is clamped into the limiting groove 232 under the action of the first elastic member 222. When the guide block group is located at the second position, the limiting portion 221 is separated from the limiting groove 232.
