Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a bathroom auxiliary tool, and more particularly to a locking device and a shower head holder. Background Technology

[0002] Shower racks are used in indoor spaces such as shower rooms. Traditional shower racks only have the function of fixing the shower head. With the increasing demands of people, some shower racks that can hold daily necessities have appeared on the market. The height of the hanging basket for holding daily necessities on some shower racks is fixed, while the hanging basket on some shower racks can be adjusted up and down according to the needs of use before installation to achieve a suitable usage height. However, the adjustment structure of such hanging baskets is relatively simple and cannot better meet the needs of use for different placement positions of the hanging basket. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a shower rack with more flexible hanging basket adjustment. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a locking device and a shower head holder to solve one or more technical problems existing in the prior art, and at least provide a beneficial option or create conditions.

[0004] The solution to the technical problem of this utility model is:

[0005] A locking device includes: a first housing having a first notch facing rearward on its upper and lower sides; a second housing having a second notch facing forward on its left and right sides, a sliding structure being provided between the second housing and the first housing, the second housing being movable back and forth relative to the first housing; and a locking member passing through one of the first housing and the second housing and threadedly connected to the other.

[0006] This technical solution has at least the following beneficial effects: The locking device is mainly used to fix a fixed structure to a wall or other location and a basket rack structure for storing items to each other. Specifically, the fixed structure and the basket rack structure each have a connecting rod. The rod in the fixed structure passes through one of the first and second notches, while the rod in the basket rack structure passes through the other of the first and second notches. At this time, the rods in both the fixed structure and the basket rack structure are clamped and limited between the first and second housings. When it is necessary to adjust the relative position of the basket rack structure and the fixed structure, the threaded connection between the locking element and the first or second housing is loosened. At this time, the first and second housings can be moved along their respective sides. The basket frame can be adjusted vertically to accommodate different user heights, and horizontally to accommodate the placement of everyday items. After adjustment, tightening the locking mechanism causes the first and second housings to move closer together, clamping the basket frame to the fixed structure and locking it in place. This allows for multi-directional adjustment of the basket frame, improving flexibility and user experience. The adjustment is convenient and can be repeated after installation to better meet diverse user needs.

[0007] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, an anti-rotation groove is provided on the front side of the first housing, and a nut is fitted into the anti-rotation groove. One end of the locking member passes through the second housing and the anti-rotation groove in sequence and is fitted into the nut. In this configuration, the fixing structure for mounting to a wall or other structure is installed on the front side, while the basket structure for storing items is installed on the rear side. The nut is fitted into the anti-rotation groove on the front side of the first housing. The shape of the anti-rotation groove matches the shape of the nut, thus restricting the nut's rotation within the groove. One end of the locking member passes through the second housing and the anti-rotation groove from front to back and is threaded into the nut. When adjustment of the basket structure is needed, the locking member is located close to the user's position, making it easier to rotate and improving the overall user experience.

[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the sliding structure includes a guide sleeve connected to the rear side of the first housing and a guide rod connected to the front side of the second housing, with the front end of the guide rod inserted into the guide sleeve. By utilizing the cooperation between the guide rod and the guide sleeve, a sliding fit between the first and second housings in the front-rear direction can be achieved. This allows the locking element to be limited during rotation by the sliding fit between the guide rod and the guide sleeve, enabling the first and second housings to move closer or further apart.

[0009] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, an elastic pad is connected to the rear side of the first housing, with the area formed by the two opposing first notches serving as the first limiting area, and the rear side of the elastic pad located within the first limiting area. When the first housing and the second housing are far apart, the space at the first notch is relatively large, allowing the rod inside the fixing structure to easily pass through the two opposing first notches. When the locking member rotates, causing the first housing and the second housing to move closer together, the elastic pad gradually presses against the rod inside the fixing structure, pushing the rod towards the first housing. This improves the stability of locking the rod, making the basketball hoop structure installation more secure.

[0010] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, an elastic boss is formed on the rear side of the elastic pad, with the area formed by the two opposing second notches serving as the second limiting area. The rear side of the elastic boss is located within the second limiting area. Similarly, when the first housing and the second housing are far apart, the space at the second notch is larger. At this time, the rods inside the basketball frame structure can easily pass through the two opposing second notches. When the locking member rotates, causing the first housing and the second housing to move closer together, the elastic boss will gradually press against the rods inside the basketball frame structure, pressing the rods inside the basketball frame structure towards the first housing. This improves the stability when locking the rods, making the basketball frame structure installation more stable.

[0011] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a suction cup is connected to the front side of the first housing. In use, the suction cup can be used to attach to the structural surface of the external device, such as a wall, thereby fixing the entire locking device in place and further improving the stability of the entire shower rack during installation and use.

[0012] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, this utility model also includes a knob, the rear side of which is provided with an anti-rotation hole, and the rear end of the locking member is formed with an anti-rotation head, which is fitted into the anti-rotation hole. When it is necessary to rotate the locking member, force can be applied to the knob, and the rotation can drive the locking member to rotate synchronously, thereby improving the convenience of use.

[0013] A shower head holder includes: a fixed frame having a vertical bar extending in a vertical direction; a hanging basket having a horizontal bar extending in a horizontal direction; and the aforementioned locking device, wherein the vertical bar passes through two opposing first notches, and the horizontal bar passes through two opposing second notches.

[0014] This technical solution has at least the following beneficial effects: the fixing frame is used to connect the hanging basket and the structural surface of the installation, such as the wall, while the hanging basket is used to store daily necessities. The locking device clamps and limits the vertical rod in the fixing frame and the horizontal rod in the hanging basket to each other, which allows for multi-directional adjustment of the basket frame structure to be installed, improving the flexibility and user experience. It is also easy to adjust, and the position of the hanging basket can be adjusted again after installation to better meet people's different usage needs.

[0015] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, this utility model also includes a connecting block. Multiple fixing frames are arranged along the vertical direction, and adjacent fixing frames are rotatably connected to the connecting block along a horizontal axis. Multiple fixing frames are arranged vertically, allowing for configuration according to different usage needs, improving production and usage flexibility. Furthermore, the fixing frames are interconnected via the connecting block. During overall storage and transportation, two fixing frames can be rotated and folded around the connecting block, thereby reducing space occupation and lowering packaging and transportation costs.

[0016] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a hook is connected to the top side of the fixing frame. The top side of the fixing frame can be hung on the external structure using the hook, thereby quickly positioning the fixing frame and improving the convenience of installation and use of the entire shower rack.

[0025] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "setting," "installation," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.

[0026] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A locking device includes a first housing 100, a second housing 200, and a locking member 310. The first housing 100 has a first notch 110 facing rearward on its upper and lower sides, and the second housing 200 has a second notch 210 facing forward on its left and right sides. A sliding structure is provided between the second housing 200 and the first housing 100, allowing the second housing 200 to move back and forth relative to the first housing 100. The locking member 310 passes through one of the first housing 100 and the second housing 200 and is threadedly connected to the other.

[0027] As described above, the locking device is mainly used to fix the fixed structure to the wall or other locations and the basket rack structure for storing items to each other. Specifically, the fixed structure and the basket rack structure each have a connecting rod. The rod in the fixed structure passes through one of the first notch 110 and the second notch 210, while the rod in the basket rack structure passes through the other of the first notch 110 and the second notch 210. At this time, the rods in both the fixed structure and the basket rack structure are clamped and limited between the first housing 100 and the second housing 200. When it is necessary to adjust the relative position of the basket rack structure and the fixed structure, the threaded connection between the locking member 310 and the first housing 100 or the second housing 200 is loosened. At this time, the first housing 100 and the second housing 200 can be connected. The first housing 100 and the second housing 200 move in opposite directions, releasing the clamping limit on the rods of the fixed structure and the basket frame structure. The basket frame structure can be adjusted up and down to accommodate the height needs of different users, and can also be adjusted left and right to accommodate the height and position of daily necessities. After adjustment, tighten the locking part 310. At this time, the first housing 100 and the second housing 200 move in opposite directions, clamping the rods of the basket frame structure and the fixed structure together, thereby locking the basket frame structure and the fixed structure together. In this way, the basket frame structure that needs to be installed can be adjusted in multiple directions, improving the flexibility and user experience. The adjustment is convenient and can be adjusted again after installation, better meeting people's different usage needs.

[0028] In practical applications, before use, the first housing 100 and the second housing 200 can be separated. At this time, the external fixing structure and the rods within the basket frame structure can be directly inserted into the first notch 110 and the second notch 210. Then, the first housing 100 and the second housing 200 are joined together, connecting the sliding structures between them. Finally, the locking member 310 is used to lock and fix the first housing 100 and the second housing 200 together. Furthermore, in the first housing 100, the two first notches 110 facing each other vertically constitute the first limiting group. Multiple first limiting groups, such as two or three, can be spaced apart in the left-right direction in the first housing 100. Similarly, in the second housing 200, the two second notches 210 facing each other horizontally constitute the second limiting group. Two or three second limiting groups, such as two or three, can be spaced apart in the up-down direction in the second housing 200.

[0029] The locking member 310 can pass through the first housing 100 and be threaded to the second housing 200. In this embodiment, the first housing 100 has an anti-rotation groove on its front side, and a nut 320 is fitted into the anti-rotation groove. One end of the locking member 310 passes through the second housing 200 and the anti-rotation groove in sequence and is fitted to the nut 320. At this time, the fixing structure used for installation and fixation to the wall or other structures is installed on the front side, while the basket structure used for storing items is installed on the rear side. The nut 320 is fitted into the anti-rotation groove on the front side of the first housing 100. The shape of the anti-rotation groove and the shape of the nut 320 are adapted to each other, thereby restricting the rotation of the nut 320 in the anti-rotation groove. One end of the locking member 310 passes through the second housing 200 and the anti-rotation groove from front to back and is threaded to the nut 320. When it is necessary to adjust the basket structure, since the locking member 310 is located close to the position where people use it, it can be rotated more conveniently, improving the overall user experience.

[0030] There are several ways to slide the first housing 100 and the second housing 200 together. For example, one of the first housing 100 and the second housing 200 may have a protruding guide rail, while the other may have a guide groove on its inner sidewall. The sliding connection between the two is achieved through the cooperation of the guide rail and the guide groove. In this embodiment, the sliding structure includes a guide sleeve 120 connected to the rear side of the first housing 100 and a guide rod 220 connected to the front side of the second housing 200. The front end of the guide rod 220 is inserted into the guide sleeve 120. By utilizing the cooperation between the guide rod 220 and the guide sleeve 120, the first housing 100 and the second housing 200 can be slidably connected in the front-back direction. This allows the locking member 310 to be limited by the sliding cooperation between the guide rod 220 and the guide sleeve 120 when rotating, thereby enabling the first housing 100 and the second housing 200 to move closer or further apart. In practical applications, there are multiple guide rods 220 and guide sleeves 120. A sliding structure is formed by a guide rod 220 and a guide sleeve 120 that cooperate with each other. Three to five sliding structures can be evenly arranged between the first housing 100 and the second housing 200.

[0031] In the above embodiment, the rod can be limited by the positions of the first housing 100 at the first notch 110 and the second housing 200 at the second notch 210. To improve the stability of clamping the rod, in this embodiment, an elastic pad 400 is connected to the rear side of the first housing 100. The area formed by the two opposing first notches 110 is the first limiting area, and the rear side of the elastic pad 400 is located within the first limiting area. When the first housing 100 and the second housing 200 are far apart, the space at the first notch 110 is large. At this time, the rod in the fixed structure can easily pass through the two opposing first notches 110. When the locking member 310 rotates and the first housing 100 and the second housing 200 move closer to each other, the elastic pad 400 will gradually press against the rod in the fixed structure, pressing the rod in the fixed structure towards the first housing 100. This can improve the stability of locking the rod and make the basketball hoop structure more stable.

[0032] Furthermore, an elastic boss 410 is formed on the rear side of the elastic pad 400, with the area formed by the two opposing second notches 210 serving as the second limiting area. The rear side of the elastic boss 410 is located within the second limiting area. Similarly, when the first housing 100 and the second housing 200 are far apart, the space at the second notch 210 is relatively large. At this time, the rods inside the basketball frame structure can easily pass through the two opposing second notches 210. When the locking member 310 rotates, causing the first housing 100 and the second housing 200 to move closer together, the elastic boss 410 will gradually press against the rods inside the basketball frame structure, pressing the rods inside the basketball frame structure towards the first housing 100. This improves the stability when locking the rods, making the basketball frame structure installation more stable.

[0033] In some embodiments, a suction cup 500 is connected to the front side of the first housing 100. In use, the suction cup 500 can be used to attach to the structural surface of the external device, such as a wall, thereby fixing the locking device in place and further improving the stability of the entire shower rack during installation and use.

[0034] This utility model also includes a knob 600, the rear side of which is provided with an anti-rotation hole. The rear end of the locking member 310 forms an anti-rotation head, which is fitted into the anti-rotation hole. When it is necessary to rotate the locking member 310, force can be applied to the knob 600, and rotation will drive the locking member 310 to rotate synchronously, thereby improving ease of use. In practical applications, the locking member 310 can be a screw, in which case the head of the screw forms an anti-rotation head. The head of the screw is fitted into the anti-rotation hole, and rotating the knob 600 will drive the screw to rotate synchronously.

[0035] like Figure 3As shown, a shower head holder includes a fixed frame, a hanging basket 800, and the aforementioned locking device. The fixed frame is provided with a vertical rod 710 extending in the vertical direction; the hanging basket 800 is provided with a horizontal rod 810 extending in the horizontal direction. When the holder is connected to the fixed frame by the locking device, the vertical rod 710 passes through two opposing first notches 110, and the horizontal rod 810 passes through two opposing second notches 210.

[0036] In this shower rack, the fixed frame is used to connect the hanging basket 800 and to install it on an external structural surface, such as a wall. The hanging basket 800 is used to store daily necessities. The locking device clamps and limits the vertical bar 710 in the fixed frame and the horizontal bar 810 in the hanging basket 800. The basket structure can be adjusted in multiple directions to improve the flexibility and user experience. It is also easy to adjust, and the position of the hanging basket 800 can be adjusted again after installation to better meet different user needs.

[0037] This utility model also includes a connecting block 900. Multiple fixing frames are arranged along the vertical direction, and adjacent fixing frames are rotatably connected to the connecting block 900 along a horizontal axis. Multiple fixing frames are arranged vertically, allowing for configuration according to different usage needs, improving production and usage flexibility. Furthermore, two fixing frames are interconnected via the connecting block 900. During overall storage and transportation, two fixing frames can be rotated and folded around the connecting block 900, thereby reducing space occupation and lowering packaging and transportation costs. In practical applications, a fixing frame can be connected to a hanging basket 800 via a locking device, or multiple locking devices can be configured and connected to multiple hanging baskets 800 respectively.

[0038] The mounting bracket itself can be fixed to the external device structure by means of screws, snap-fit, etc. In this embodiment, the top side of the mounting bracket is connected to a hook 720. The top side of the mounting bracket can be hung on the external device structure using the hook 720, thereby quickly positioning the mounting bracket and improving the convenience of installation and use of the entire shower rack.

[0039] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above. However, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described.
