Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of bathroom technology, and more particularly to a shower column with storage function. Background Technology
[0002] Storage-type shower column is an integrated bathroom device with a U-shaped frame structure. It consists of a vertical main frame, multiple horizontal storage platforms and a combined water outlet system. This device organically integrates showering and storage functions. The middle horizontal bar and support plate form an open storage space for placing toiletries, achieving efficient use of vertical space. When in use, users can rinse their entire body with the top shower head or switch to the handheld shower head for targeted cleaning. Bath products are placed in the middle shelf for easy access and use, optimizing the user flow. This shower column has the advantages of compact structure and integrated functions. The U-shaped frame serves as both a water channel carrier and a storage function, reducing the need for wall-mounted auxiliary facilities. At the same time, the three-dimensional frame design increases vertical storage space, making it suitable for modern compact bathroom environments.
[0003] However, existing U-shaped shower columns use a fixed frame structure, and the installation position and water outlet angle of the overhead shower and hand shower are fixed and cannot be adjusted according to actual usage needs. Due to the rigid and fixed overall structure, when users adopt a sitting bath posture or need to rinse specific body parts such as the back or chest, they cannot adjust the water outlet angle to adapt to different shower postures and can only use the hand shower. At the same time, the water outlet cannot be lowered to a position close to the ground, making it difficult to meet the needs of foot washing or floor rinsing. This structural limitation restricts the usage scenarios of the shower column, fails to meet the usage requirements of special groups or specific functions, and reduces the flexibility and user-friendliness of the equipment.
[0004] Therefore, a shower column with storage function was proposed to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

The inclined surface of the pawl is set on the front side. A limiting spring is fixedly connected between the top of the T-shaped groove and the top of the horizontal plate.
[0009] In the above technical solution, the top of the horizontal plate is fixedly connected to an upper rod, the top of the upper rod is disposed through the top of the sliding shower control box, and the upper rod is sealed and longitudinally slidably connected inside the shower control box, and the top of the upper rod is fixedly connected to an upper pull ball.
[0010] In the above technical solution, the other end of the spiral spring is fixedly connected to the side wall of the fixed ring, and the rotation point of the fixed ring and the rotation point of the upper rotation damper are both concentrically set with the rotation point of the flip rod on the shower control box.
[0011] In the above technical solution, a shower head holder is further fixedly connected to the side wall of the vertical frame, the handheld shower head is inserted into the shower head holder, and a shower head hose is threadedly connected between the handheld shower head and the lower water outlet of the shower control box.
[0012] In the above technical solution, the top spray shower head has a top ring groove on its side wall, and a number of round holes are equally spaced on the inner side of the top ring groove.

The water outlet direction and angle can be flexibly adjusted according to the needs of the usage scenario. When the user adopts a sitting bath posture, the overhead shower head can be flipped to the corresponding position on the back or chest of the body to achieve directional water flow rinsing of specific parts. When flipped to the lowest position, the water outlet direction of the overhead shower head is adjusted to form a low-level water outlet, which is convenient for foot cleaning and floor waterproofing. This design effectively breaks through the positional limitations of traditional fixed shower columns, significantly expands the applicable scenarios and posture compatibility of the equipment, and takes into account the diverse usage needs such as standing shower, sitting bath, and local cleaning, thereby improving the functional flexibility of the bathroom space and the user experience.
[0017] 2. The arrangement of the storage rod and adjustment mechanism in this invention allows the storage rod and crossbar to be rotated and adjusted by 90 degrees, and can be unfolded from the wall to a horizontal state. Its horizontal support strip forms a drying support surface, which can be used for hanging and drying bath towels. This design makes full use of the vertical space when the equipment is not in use, expands the practical function of the bathroom environment without taking up additional bathroom area, and improves the utilization rate of space resources.

[0020] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0021] Numerous specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the invention. However, the invention may also be practiced in other ways different from those described herein, and therefore the invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0022] In actual use, it was found that the existing U-shaped shower column adopts a fixed frame structure. The installation position and water outlet angle of its top shower head 2 and hand shower head 3 are constant and cannot be adjusted according to actual usage needs. Due to the rigid and fixed overall structure, when the user adopts a sitting bath posture or needs to rinse specific body parts such as the back and chest, it is impossible to adjust the water outlet angle to adapt to different shower postures. The user can only use the hand shower head 3 for washing. At the same time, the water outlet device cannot be lowered to a position close to the ground, which makes it difficult to meet the needs of foot washing or floor rinsing. To solve the above problems, the following structure was invented.
[0023] like Figures 1-14The shower column shown includes a shower control box 1, an overhead shower head 2, and a handheld shower head 3. A vertical frame 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the shower control box 1, and a pair of horizontal frames 5 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the vertical frame 4. A storage rod 6 is provided inside the vertical frame 4, and a horizontal bar 7 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the storage rod 6 relative to the position inside the horizontal frame 5. The horizontal frames 5 and the horizontal bars 7 are used to place bathroom supplies, realizing the storage function. The shower control box 1 is provided with an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the position of the storage rod 6. An upper rotary joint 8 is threadedly sealed to the side water outlet of the shower control box 1. A flip rod 9 is rotatably connected to the side of the shower control box 1 away from the vertical frame 4. The overhead shower head 2 is located at the top between the flip rod 9 and the storage rod 6. A lower rotary joint 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the side wall of the flip rod 9. The overhead shower head 2 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the storage rod 6. The rotating end of the lower rotary joint 10 is threadedly sealed to the water inlet of the overhead shower head 2. A rotation limiting mechanism for limiting the rotation of the flip rod 9 is also provided.
[0024] A water passage cavity 11 is provided inside the flipping rod 9. The bottom end of the water passage cavity 11 is connected to the upper rotary joint 8, and the top end of the water passage cavity 11 is connected to the lower rotary joint 10.
[0025] The rotation limiting mechanism includes an upper rotation damper 12 and a spiral spring 13. The upper rotation damper 12 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the flip rod 9. The rotating end of the upper rotation damper 12 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the shower control box 1. A circular groove 14 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the shower control box 1 relative to the outer side of the upper rotary joint 8. One end of the spiral spring 13 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the circular groove 14. A fixing ring 15 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the flip rod 9 relative to the inner side of the circular groove 14. Several ratchet teeth 16 are fixedly connected at equal intervals on the outer wall of the fixing ring 15. A T-shaped groove 17 is opened at the top of the circular groove 14. A horizontal plate 18 is longitudinally slidably connected to the inner side of the T-shaped groove 17. A pawl 19 inserted between the ratchet teeth 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the horizontal plate 18. The inclined surface of the pawl 19 is set on the front side. A limiting spring 20 is fixedly connected between the top of the T-shaped groove 17 and the top of the horizontal plate 18.
[0026] The top of the horizontal plate 18 is fixedly connected to the upper rod 21. The top of the upper rod 21 passes through the top of the sliding shower control box 1 and is sealed and slidably connected in the shower control box 1. The top of the upper rod 21 is fixedly connected to the upper pull ball 22.
[0027] The other end of the spiral spring 13 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the fixed ring 15. The rotation point of the fixed ring 15 and the rotation point of the upper rotation damper 12 are both concentrically set with the rotation point of the flip rod 9 on the shower control box 1.
[0028] A shower head holder 23 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the vertical frame 4. A handheld shower head 3 is inserted into the shower head holder 23. A shower hose 24 is threadedly connected between the handheld shower head 3 and the lower water outlet of the shower control box 1.
[0029] The top shower head 2 has a top ring groove 25 on its side wall. Several round holes 26 are equally spaced on the inner side of the top ring groove 25. The flip rod 9 has a straight groove 27 on its side wall next to one of the round holes 26. A round rod 28 is slidably connected to the inner side of the straight groove 27. A positioning spring 29 is fixedly connected between the side wall of the round rod 28 and the inner side of the straight groove 27. The side end of the round rod 28 is inserted into the inner side of one of the round holes 26, and the side wall of the round rod 28 is set as a smooth arc surface.
[0030] When installing a shower column, first seal the shower control box 1 to the hot and cold water pipes on the wall and fix the shower control box 1 to the wall. Then fix the vertical frame 4 to the wall with expansion bolts to complete the installation and fixing of the shower column. During the use of the shower column, the corresponding switch on the shower control box 1 is turned on to control the water flow from the overhead shower head 2 or the hand shower head 3 for showering. When it is necessary to adjust the shower angle of the overhead shower head 2, the pull-up ball 22 can be pulled upwards to move the upper rod 21, the horizontal plate 18, and the pawl 19 upwards, compressing the limit spring 20, thereby causing the pawl 19 to be pulled out of the ratchet 16 (since the inclined surface of the pawl 19 is on the front side, it will not restrict the forward rotation position of the flip rod 9, thus releasing the restriction on the ratchet 16, i.e. The rotating rod 9 can be driven to rotate downwards. Then, the rotating rod 9 can be pulled to rotate downwards, which will also drive the top spray shower head 2 to rotate downwards. At this time, since one end of the spiral spring 13 is fixed to the inner side of the annular groove 14 and the other end is fixed to the side wall of the fixed ring 15, the rotation of the rotating rod 9 will drive the fixed ring 15 and the ratchet 16 to rotate together, and gradually compress the spiral spring 13 (during the downward rotation of the rotating rod 9, the upper rotation damper 12 can ensure that the rotating rod 9 rotates downwards at a uniform speed). Once the flip rod 9 and the overhead shower head 2 have flipped down to the designated position, the pull ball 22 can be released. Then, under the elastic force of the limit spring 20, the horizontal plate 18 and the pawl 19 are pushed to reset, thereby driving the pawl 19 to insert into the corresponding ratchet 16, restricting the flip rod 9 from flipping down (during the rotation of the flip rod 9, the upper rotary joint 8 will rotate, and the position of the upper rotary joint 8 can ensure the connection between the water outlet on the side of the shower control box 1 and the overhead shower head 2, without hindering the normal flip of the flip rod 9). Then rotate the overhead shower head 2 and adjust the water outlet position of the overhead shower head 2. During the rotation of the overhead shower head 2, the round hole 26 on the overhead shower head 2 will squeeze the arc surface of the round rod 28, thereby squeezing the round rod 28 to slide into the straight groove 27 and compressing the positioning spring 29. Then, the round rod 28 is squeezed out of the round hole 26 and the overhead shower head 2 continues to rotate. Rotate the other round hole 26 next to the round rod 28. Then, under the elastic force of the positioning spring 29, push the round rod 28 into the corresponding round hole 26. Then, the user can continue to rotate the top shower head 2 and squeeze the arc surface of the round rod 28 through the round hole 26 again. Repeat the above operation until the water outlet of the top shower head 2 rotates to the specified angle (during the rotation of the top shower head 2, the lower rotating joint 10 will be driven to rotate. The setting of the lower rotating joint 10 can ensure the connection between the water passage chamber 11 and the top shower head 2, and will not hinder the normal rotation adjustment of the top shower head 2). Thus, the rotation position of the top shower head 2 can be restricted by the round rod 28 and the round hole 26 to ensure that the top shower head 2 will not rotate arbitrarily. Finally, when the flip rod 9 needs to be reset after use, the flip rod 9 and the top shower head 2 can be directly pushed up to reset. During the reset process, the spiral spring 13 stores energy by coiling, providing a constant rebound torque when the frame flips, achieving automatic reset or gravity balance, ensuring smooth and effortless unfolding and folding (it should be noted that the elasticity of the spiral spring 13 is insufficient to push the flipping rod 9 upward for reset, it only has the function of smooth reset). At the same time, the rotation of the flipping rod 9 drives the fixing ring 15 and ratchet 16 to rotate, and then the inclined surface of the ratchet 16 presses the inclined surface of the pawl 19, pressing the pawl 19 to slide upward, and driving the horizontal plate 18 to move upward to compress the limiting spring 20, until another ratchet 16 rotates to below the pawl 19, and then pushes the pawl 19 to insert under the elasticity of the limiting spring 20. This process is repeated until the flipping rod 9 and the top spray shower head 2 are reset.
[0031] In summary, the above-described structural design enables the overhead shower head 2 to rotate 180 degrees, allowing for flexible adjustment of the water outlet direction and angle according to usage scenarios. When the user adopts a seated shower posture, the overhead shower head 2 can be rotated to the corresponding position on the back or chest of the body to achieve directional water flow rinsing of specific areas. When rotated to the lowest position, the water outlet direction of the overhead shower head 2 can be adjusted to form a low-level water outlet, facilitating foot cleaning and floor waterproofing. This design effectively breaks through the positional limitations of traditional fixed shower columns, significantly expanding the applicable scenarios and posture compatibility of the equipment, taking into account diverse usage needs such as standing showers, seated showers, and spot cleaning, and improving the functional flexibility and user experience of the bathroom space.
[0032] Based on the above embodiments, it was found during use that the above shower column only has the adjustment function of the overhead shower head 2, which is relatively limited. In order to solve the above problems, the above structure has been further improved.
[0033] The adjustment mechanism includes an adjustment rod 30 and a lower rotation damper 31. The top of the shower control box 1 has a flip groove 32. The bottom end of the storage rod 6 is rotatably connected to the inside of the flip groove 32. The lower rotation damper 31 is fixedly connected to the inside of the flip groove 32. The rotating end of the lower rotation damper 31 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the storage rod 6. The adjustment rod 30 is rotatably connected to the inside of the flip groove 32 and is fixedly connected to the side wall of the storage rod 6. The top and rear sides of the adjustment rod 30 are provided with positioning holes 33. The shower control box 1 has a vertical cavity located above the adjustment rod 30. A sliding frame 34 is slidably connected to the inside of the vertical cavity. The bottom end of the sliding frame 34 is inserted into the positioning hole 33 at the top. A return spring 35 is fixedly connected between the bottom end of the sliding frame 34 and the bottom end of the vertical cavity.
[0034] The top of the sliding bracket 34 extends through the top of the shower control box 1. The sliding bracket 34 is longitudinally and slidably connected to the inside of the cavity. A pull-down ball 36 is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding bracket 34.
[0035] One of the crossbars 7 has a damping pusher 37 fixedly connected through its top end, and one of the crossbar frames 5 has an L-shaped groove 38 at its top end, with the pusher of the damping pusher 37 inserted into the inside of the L-shaped groove 38.
[0036] When it is necessary to flip the storage rod 6 down, first push the damping pusher 37 out from the lateral end of the L-shaped groove 38 and slide it to the corner of the L-shaped groove 38 (the damping pusher 37 is embedded in the crossbar 7, and through the built-in elastic friction plate or polymer damping body, it generates controllable static friction with the groove wall, forming a damping effect of dynamic loosening and static tightening, which can prevent self-slippage caused by gravity or vibration, and also allow the user to apply a certain pushing force for stepless position adjustment, so as to achieve easy positioning and stable support), thereby releasing the flipping restriction of the crossbar 7. Then pull the pull-down ball 36 upward, which drives the sliding frame 34 to slide upward, thereby driving the sliding frame 34 to be pulled out from the positioning hole 33 and compressing the return spring 35, thereby releasing the rotation restriction of the adjusting rod 30. Then the storage rod 6 can be pulled down to flip, and the crossbar 7 can be flipped down until the front side of the storage rod 6 is attached to the inside of the flipping groove 32 (during the rotation of the storage rod 6, it is restricted by the lower rotation damper 31, which can ensure that the storage rod 6 flips down at a uniform speed). Then, the pull-down ball 36 can be released, and the sliding bracket 34 will slide downward under the elastic force of the return spring 35, so that the bottom end of the sliding bracket 34 is inserted into another positioning hole 33, which restricts the flipping of the storage rod 6, and it can then be used.
[0037] In summary, the design of the above structure allows the storage rod 6 and crossbar 7 to be adjusted by 90 degrees, unfolding from the wall to a horizontal position. The horizontal support strip forms a drying support surface, which can be used for hanging and drying bath towels. This design makes full use of the vertical space when the equipment is not in use, expands the practical functions of the bathroom environment without taking up additional bathroom area, improves the utilization rate of space resources, and further enhances the storage function of the shower column. At the same time, when the storage rod 6 and crossbar 7 are unfolded horizontally, they can form a stable handrail, which can be used as a washing support for the elderly in the bathroom. With the flip of the overhead shower head 2 and the storage rod 6, it can assist the elderly in standing, turning around and washing certain areas, providing anti-slip support to ensure bathing safety. When not in use, it can also be used as a bath towel drying rack, realizing multiple uses for one item.
[0038] Finally, it should be noted that both the upper rotary damper 12 and the lower rotary damper 31 use internal rotors to rotate in a viscous medium (such as silicone oil) in a sealed cavity, or use friction plates to generate resistance, converting rotational kinetic energy into heat energy dissipation, forming a reverse torque related to the rotational speed, so as to achieve smooth deceleration, slow descent and precise positioning control of the rotating parts, and prevent the flipping rod 9 from rebounding or impacting quickly.
[0039] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention.
[0040] Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely the principles of the present invention. Various changes and modifications can be made to the present invention without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the present invention as claimed.
