Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a shower door, in particular to a universal guide block for a shower door. Background Art

[0002] There is usually a guide under the shower door. The guide is provided with a guide groove. The lower edge of the movable glass is located in the guide groove. The guide groove is used as a structure to guide the movement of the movable glass, thereby preventing the movable glass from swinging during movement. During long-term use, dirt is easily accumulated in the guide groove. However, the guide of the above structure is generally integral and fixed to the bottom surface by screws. Therefore, it is difficult to disassemble after installation, making cleaning difficult. The applicant has designed a guide structure under the shower door (patent number 202222617559.1) to solve the above problem.

[0003] However, the guide piece is not universal. If the opening direction of the movable glass is changed during on-site installation, the original guide piece cannot be used and cannot be installed. The guide piece needs to be replaced in the factory, resulting in installation delays. Therefore, the applicant has designed a universal guide block for shower doors to solve the above problem. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model provides a universal guide block for a shower door.

However, the present disclosure can be embodied in different forms and should not be interpreted as being limited to the embodiments set forth herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided so that the present disclosure will be comprehensive and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art. In addition, the present disclosure is limited only by the scope of the claims.

[0018] The shapes, sizes, ratios, angles and numbers disclosed in the drawings for describing the embodiments of the present disclosure are only examples, and therefore the present disclosure is not limited to the details shown. Throughout this specification, the same reference numerals refer to the same elements. In the following description, when the detailed description of the relevant known functions or configurations is determined to be unnecessary to blur the focus of the present disclosure, the detailed description will be omitted. In the case of using "including", "having" and "comprising" described in this specification, other parts may be added unless "only" is used. Unless otherwise indicated, the terms in the singular may include plural forms.

[0019] When explaining an element, although not explicitly described, the element is understood to include a range of error.

[0020] When describing a positional relationship, for example, when the positional relationship is described as "on," "above," "below," and "adjacent to," unless "immediately" or "directly" is used, one or more parts may be arranged between two other parts.

[0021] When describing a time relationship, for example, when a time sequence is described as “after,” “subsequently,” “next,” and “before,” discontinuous cases may be included unless “just” or “directly” is used.

[0022] It should be understood that although the terms "first", "second", etc. may be used herein to describe various elements, these elements should not be limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish one element from other elements. For example, a first element may be referred to as a second element, and similarly, a second element may be referred to as a first element without departing from the scope of the present disclosure.

[0023] As those skilled in the art can fully understand, the features of the different embodiments of the present disclosure can be coupled or combined with each other in part or in whole, and can cooperate with each other in various ways and be driven technically. The embodiments of the present disclosure can be performed independently of each other, or can be performed together in a mutually dependent relationship.

[0024] Reference Figures 1 to 3 The utility model discloses a universal guide block for a shower door, including a guide member 1 and a water retaining strip 2. The guide member 1 is fixed to the ground by screws. The guide member 1 of the present application is preferably composed of two parts that are snap-fitted together to facilitate subsequent disassembly, thereby facilitating the cleaning of the movable glass 9. In the above structure, the main part of the guide member 1 is fixed to the ground. Of course, the above structure is not an improvement point of the present application and is therefore not described in detail.

[0025] As shown in the figure, sockets 3 are provided on both sides of the guide member 1. The sockets 3 are square holes. Because they need to be plugged in with the water retaining strip 2, the water retaining strip 2 is generally square, so the sockets 3 are preferably square holes. One side wall of the socket 3 is connected to the outside world, so that when the end of the water retaining strip 2 is inserted into the socket 3, the inserted end of the water retaining strip 2 can also contact the ground. In this way, there is no need to change the shape of the water retaining strip 2, but the shape of the socket 3 is designed to match the water retaining strip 2. Because the guide member 1 is plastic and injection molded, it can be injection molded into a more complex shape, and the water retaining strip 2 is generally directly stretched from aluminum profiles. Therefore, when designing, it is preferred that the shape of the socket 3 matches the shape of the water retaining strip 2.

[0026] As shown in the figure, the insert block 4 is arranged in each of the jacks 3, and the insert block 4 is square. The cross-sectional shape of the water retaining strip 2 is a "concave" shape, forming a square groove body with both ends connected to the outside world, which saves materials, so the insert block 4 can be reversely inserted into the water retaining strip 2 to improve the connection stability. And as a preference, the cross-sectional shape of the insert block 4 is a "concave" shape, which saves materials and facilitates mold opening.

[0027] As shown in the figure, it also includes a glass connector 5, on which is provided a slot 10 which is engaged with the insert block 4 and a glass slot 6 which can be engaged with the fixed glass. The glass connector 5 is formed by plastic injection molding. The glass connector 5 includes a connecting plate and side plates which are relatively vertically arranged. The glass slot 6 is surrounded by the connecting plate and the side plates. The slot 10 is arranged at the end of the connecting plate. The slot 10 is a square hole and corresponds to the shape of the insert block 4. Therefore, the glass connector 5 is connected to the guide member 1 through the above-mentioned plug-in structure. When the fixed glass 7 is engaged with the glass slot 6, the installation of the fixed glass 7 can be positioned and fixed. Of course, the fixed glass 7 will also be fixed by gluing.

[0028] As shown in the figure, the end of the insert block 4 protrudes from the side of the guide member 1, and the protruding height is equal to the thickness of the connecting plate, so that the fixed glass 7 can be inserted into the glass slot 6 and can be completely attached to the groove wall of the glass slot 6, which is more stable and leaves no gaps. Moreover, as a preferred structure, a gasket 8 corresponding to the shape of the glass slot 6 is provided in the glass slot 6. The gasket 8 is made of soft rubber to prevent the surface of the fixed glass 7 from being scratched by friction with the glass connector 5.

[0029] The universal guide block for shower doors provided by an embodiment of the utility model is introduced in detail above. The principle and implementation mode of the utility model are described in detail using specific examples herein. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the method and core idea of ​​the utility model. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, according to the idea of ​​the utility model, there will be changes in the specific implementation mode and application scope. In summary, the content of this specification should not be understood as limiting the utility model.
