[0027] Reference Figure 1-4A guide rail quick-installation structure includes a guide rail 100, a column 200 and a joint 300. The guide rail 100 is arranged horizontally, the column 200 is arranged longitudinally, and the joint 300 is connected to the end of the guide rail 100 in the length direction. The column 200 is provided with a mounting groove, and a spring piece 400 is provided on one side wall of the mounting groove. A card slot 310 is provided on one side wall of the joint 300. The end is inserted into the mounting groove and the spring piece 400 is stuck in the card slot 310. A gap is left between the side wall where the spring piece 400 is located and the side wall where the card slot 310 is located. An external tool 600 is inserted into the gap to compress the spring piece 400 and make it disengage from the card slot 310.
[0028] Working principle: During installation, first install the connector 300 to the end of the guide rail 100, and then push the guide rail 100 into the installation slot from top to bottom. The spring piece 400 will be compressed during the pushing process of the guide rail 100. After being pushed into place, the slot 310 will align with the spring piece 400. The spring piece 400 will recover its deformation when it loses pressure and thus get stuck in the slot 310. Under the interaction between the spring piece 400 and the slot 310, the guide rail 100 cannot move upward, and the installation is completed; during disassembly, a thin sheet-like disassembly tool 600 is inserted into the gap. The spring piece 400 is compressed by the squeezing force of the disassembly tool 600 until it is out of the slot 310, and then the guide rail 100 is pulled upward to complete the disassembly.
[0029] In some embodiments of the present invention, a mounting slot is provided at the top of the column 200. The mounting slot has an upper opening and a right opening 250. Positioning edges 210 are provided on both the front and rear sides of the right opening 250. The joint 300 has a front wall 320 and a rear wall 330. The right ends of the front and rear walls 320 and 330 are each provided with a first positioning slot 340 extending in the vertical direction. The end portion is inserted downwardly into the mounting slot from the upper opening, while the positioning edge 210 is simultaneously inserted into the first positioning slot 340. The cooperation between the first positioning slot 340 and the positioning edge 210 is used to limit the left-right deviation or shaking of the guide rail 100, thereby improving the stability of the structure.
[0030] In some embodiments of the present invention, the connector 300 further comprises a left wall 350 and a bottom wall 360. The front wall 320, the rear wall 330, the left wall 350, and the bottom wall 360 are integrally connected to form a housing-like structure, and the connector 300 is sleeved over the ends. The housing-like structure facilitates a stable connection and accurate alignment between the connector 300 and the end of the guide rail 100.
[0031] In some embodiments of the present invention, the slot 310 is disposed on the left wall 350 .
[0032] In some embodiments of the present invention, the bottom of the joint 300 has a second positioning groove 370, and the first positioning groove 340 and the second positioning groove 370 are connected. The column 200 is a profile structure, and the main structure of the column 200 is composed of a front profile wall 220, a right profile wall 230, and a rear profile wall 240. The upper end of the right profile wall 230 has an opening, which is the right opening 250 of the mounting slot. The edges of the right profile wall 230 located on the front and rear sides of the right opening 250 are positioning edges 210. The edge of the right profile wall 230 located at the bottom of the right opening 250 can be inserted into the second positioning groove 370. The second positioning groove 370 is also used to limit the left and right deviation or shaking of the guide rail 100, further improving the stability of the structure.
[0033] In some embodiments of the present invention, a connecting wall 410 is provided on the left side of the upper end of the column 200. The connecting wall 410 is connected between the front profile wall 220 and the rear profile wall 240. The connecting wall 410, the front profile wall 220, and the rear profile wall 240 form a mounting slot, and the spring clip 400 is provided on the connecting wall 410. The side columns 200 of the shower room are against the wall. To save materials, the side facing the wall is not provided with a profile wall. In order to accommodate the spring clip 400, the present invention only provides a small area of the connecting wall 410 on the wall side of the upper end of the column 200, which can save materials to the greatest extent.
[0034] In some embodiments of the present invention, the guide rail 100 and the connector 300 are connected by screws 500. Before the guide rail 100 is installed, the guide rail 100 and the connector 300 are pre-fastened with screws 500. During construction, the guide rail 100 and the connector 300 can be directly inserted into the installation slot to achieve self-locking.
[0035] In some embodiments of the present invention, the joint 300 further includes an adjustment guide block 380, which is arranged in a left-right direction. The left end of the adjustment guide block 380 is connected to the left wall 350. The adjustment guide block 380 is inserted into the guide rail 100, which has an elongated hole 110 arranged in a left-right direction. The threaded end of the screw 500 passes through the elongated hole 110 from top to bottom and connects to the adjustment guide block 380. The diameter of the nut end of the screw 500 is greater than the width of the elongated hole 110, and the nut end is located above the elongated hole 110, allowing the guide rail 100 to move along the length of the adjustment guide block 380. To adjust the door frame to the size of the door opening, the screw 500 is loosened, the position of the guide rail 100 is adjusted left and right, and the screw 500 is tightened after adjustment.
[0036] In some embodiments of the present invention, the shape of the top wall of the guide block 380 is adjusted to match the shape of the inner top wall of the guide rail 100 to improve structural stability and reduce shaking.
[0037] A shower room comprises the guide rail quick-installation structure.
