The end of the limiting block 634 passes through the strip groove 631. The slot 632 is opened at the inner end of the top of the base frame 62. A plug plate 635 is slidably connected to the inner side of the slot 632. The plug plate 635 is close to the limiting block 634. A limiting groove 636 is provided on one side, and the end of the limiting block 634 is inserted into the inner side of the limiting groove 636. The top of the plug plate 635 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the door body 7. The strip groove 631 is provided in the middle of the top of the base frame 62, providing installation space for the telescopic spring 633 and the limiting block 634. The end of the telescopic spring 633 is fixedly connected to the limiting block 634. In this way, under the elastic action of the telescopic spring 633, the limiting block 634 can move flexibly in the strip groove 631. The end of the limiting block 634 is provided The design is used to be inserted into the limiting groove 636 of another component, so as to realize the limiting function of the door body 7. At the same time, the slot 632 is opened at the top inner end of the base frame 62, and the plug plate 635 is slidably connected in the slot 632. The plug plate 635 is provided with a limiting groove 636 on the side close to the limiting block 634. The limiting groove 636 matches the shape of the limiting block 634 and is used to accommodate and fix the limiting block 634. When the plug plate 635 slides in the slot 632, the position of the limiting groove 636 will change accordingly, thereby allowing or limiting To control the movement of the limit block 634, when the user needs to adjust the position of the door body 7 or fix the door body 7, the limit slot 636 can be aligned or offset with the limit block 634 by moving the plug plate 635. When the limit slot 636 is aligned with the limit block 634, the elastic force of the telescopic spring 633 will push the limit block 634 to be inserted into the limit slot 636, thereby fixing the door body 7; when the door body 7 needs to be moved, it is only necessary to move the plug plate 635 to offset the limit slot 636 with the limit block 634 to release the fixed state of the door body 7.

[0028] refer to Figure 2-Figure 4 The top of the limit block 634 is away from the side of the slot 632 and the outer side of the push plate 53, and the adjustment plate 55 is fixedly installed. The cross-sectional shapes of the plug plate 635 and the slot 632 are both set to be convex. The top of the limit block 634 is away from the side of the slot 632 and the outer side of the push plate 53, and the adjustment plate 55 is fixedly installed. This design allows the user to operate and adjust the limit component 63 more conveniently. At the same time, the cross-sectional shapes of the plug plate 635 and the slot 632 are both set to be convex. This special design not only increases the stability of the plug plate 635 in the slot 632, prevents the plug plate 635 from accidentally falling off during the sliding process, but also makes the plug plate 635 smoother when inserted and removed from the slot 632.

[0029] refer to Figure 2-Figure 4The buffer mechanism 8 includes a base groove 81, which is opened at the front and rear sides of the inner and outer ends of the base frame 62. The inner side of the base groove 81 is fixedly connected with a buffer spring 82, and the outer end of the buffer spring 82 is fixedly installed with a buffer frame 83. The inner side of the buffer spring 82 is firmly fixed to the inner side of the base groove 81, and the outer end of the buffer spring 82 is connected to the buffer frame 83. This connection method ensures that the buffer spring 82 can effectively play a role and provide the necessary buffer force for the closing of the door body 7. When the shower door is closed, the door body 7 will drive the mounting mechanism 6 and the base frame 62 to move toward the door frame 1. Before the door body 7 is about to contact the door frame 1, the buffer frame 83 will first contact the door frame 1 or other fixed structures and be subjected to impact force. Due to the elasticity of the buffer spring 82, it can effectively absorb and mitigate the impact force, thereby avoiding a hard collision between the door body 7 and the door frame 1. The design of the buffer mechanism 8 not only reduces the noise and vibration generated when the door body 7 is closed, and improves the comfort of showering, but also enhances the service life and safety of the shower door. Whether it is used at home or in public places, this buffer shower door can bring users a better quality and safer shower experience.

[0030] refer to Figure 2-Figure 4 The buffer frame 83 is fixedly connected to a damper 85 on one side close to the reserved groove 9, and the inner end of the damper 85 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the reserved groove 9. The buffer frame 83 is fixedly connected to a damper 85 on one side close to the reserved groove 9, and the inner end of the damper 85 is firmly fixed to the inner side of the reserved groove 9. This design makes it possible for the damper 85 to play a role when the buffer frame 83 contacts the door frame 1 or other fixed structures during the closing process of the shower door, so as to further absorb and mitigate the impact force. The introduction of the damper 85 not only enhances the buffering effect, but also makes the closing process of the door body 7 smoother and softer, bringing a more comfortable shower experience to the user. At the same time, this design also extends the service life of the shower door and reduces the risk of damage caused by hard collision.

[0031] refer to Figure 2-Figure 4The outer corners of the door frame 1 are all set to be arc-shaped, and the outer end of the buffer frame 83 is fixedly connected with a buffer plate 84, and the buffer plate 84 is set to be a buffer rubber plate. The outer corners of the door frame 1 are designed to be arc-shaped. This design not only improves the overall aesthetics, but more importantly, it eliminates sharp corners and reduces the risk of accidental collision that may occur during use by users, thereby providing users with a safer use environment. Secondly, the buffer frame 83 is a key part of the buffer mechanism 8, and its outer end is fixedly connected with a buffer plate 84. This buffer plate 84 adopts a buffer rubber plate material with excellent buffering performance and wear resistance. When the shower door is closed, the buffer plate 84 will first contact the door frame 1 or other fixed structures, and through the joint action of its soft material and the damper 85, it effectively absorbs and mitigates the impact force, thereby avoiding the hard collision between the door body 7 and the door frame 1, and reducing noise and vibration.

[0032] Principle and advantages of use: By setting the clamping mechanism 5 and the installation mechanism 6, during use of the device, the plug plate 635 can be inserted into the interior of the slot 632, and the limit block 634 can be moved by the retractable spring 633 to be reset, so that the plug plate 635 can be inserted into the interior of the limit groove 636 through the limit block 634, and the limit block 634 and the limit groove 636 can be mutually limited, so that the plug plate 635 can be installed in the interior of the slot 632. At this time, the base frame 62 is inserted into the interior of the side groove 51, and the limit spring 52 is reset to drive the limit shaft 5 4 is inserted into the interior of the mounting hole 64. At this time, the bottom of the door body 7 is slidably connected to the interior of the slide groove 2 through the slider 4, and the top of the door body 7 is also slidably connected to the interior of the slide groove 2, so that the door body 7 can be stably installed in the door frame 1. When the door body 7 needs to be removed, it is only necessary to press the adjustment plate 55 to push the push plate 53 to resist the limit spring 52 to shrink, and the limit shaft 54 ​​is separated from the interior of the mounting hole 64. At this time, the door body 7 can be pulled horizontally to extract the base frame 62 from the interior of the mounting groove 61. At this time, the bottom of the door body 7 leaves the slider 4 and the door body 7 can be removed;

[0033] If it is necessary to remove the mounting mechanism 6 from the door body 7 during use, one only needs to insert one's finger into the reserved groove 9, and by pressing the adjusting plate 55 on the top of the limiting block 634 inside the strip groove 631, the limiting block 634 can be pushed out of the limiting groove 636 in the slot 632, and the limiting groove 636 and the limiting block 634 can be separated from each other, that is, the limiting block 634 and the limiting groove 636 can be separated from each other, which can cause the plug plate 635 to lose its restraint, and the base frame 62 can be pulled out of the door body 7 at this time, so that the door body 7 can be quickly disassembled and replaced. At the same time, during the use of the door body 7, as the door body 7 is in motion, the base frame 62 can be pulled out of the door body 7. The inner slide of the slide groove 2, when the door body 7 moves to the side of the door frame 1, it contacts the two sides of the door frame 1 through the buffer frame 83 and the buffer plate 84. At this time, the buffer spring 82 and the damper 85 assist in telescopic buffering and shock absorption. It can be seen that the interface buffers and shocks the door body 7 through the cooperation of the buffer spring 82 and the damper 85, so that the door body 7 can have better buffering and shock absorption performance, avoiding excessive impact sound or damage to the door body 7 when the door body 7 moves inside the door frame 1, which can improve the overall convenience and stability of the door body 7 and has better shock absorption and buffering protection performance.
