Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shower room tracks, and in particular to a shower room arc track structure. Background Technology

[0002] Shower enclosures are now an essential bathroom fixture in home decoration. Different structures and shapes of shower enclosures can be chosen based on the space of the bathroom. The structure of a shower enclosure forms an enclosed bathing space. The upper and lower guide rail components are key components for installing the movable glass door. They are crucial for opening and closing the shower enclosure to allow entry and for maintaining a good seal when closed. Shower enclosure track structures are divided into straight tracks and curved tracks, each suitable for different shapes of shower enclosure door frames. Due to the curved shape of the track, the wall surface used to fit the shower enclosure door frame must be flat. When curved, bulges can easily appear due to dimensional or design flaws, causing occasional uneven sliding. Therefore, improvements are necessary. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the defects of the existing technology, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide an arc-shaped track structure that allows for smooth sliding of the door when opening and closing.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following solution:

[0005] A shower enclosure arc track structure includes a track body, the track body being arc-shaped, an arc surface being provided on the outer wall of the track body, a groove for installing a shower enclosure door frame being provided on the inner side of the track body, a lubrication groove for installing a lubricating component being provided on the top of the groove, and a curved guide groove being provided on the track body.

[0006] Furthermore, the groove in this utility model is a square groove.

[0007] Furthermore, the lubrication groove in this invention is arc-shaped, and the lubrication component is a ball bearing.

[0008] Furthermore, the curved guide groove in this invention is provided on the inner bottom wall of the track body and the inner vertical wall of the groove.

[0009] Furthermore, the curved guide groove in this invention has a V-shaped cross-section.

[0010] Furthermore, the top of the track body in this utility model is provided with a support groove that can be used to install the shower room door frame.

[0011] Furthermore, the support groove in this utility model is set at a right angle.

[0012] In summary, the advantages of this utility model over the prior art are:

[0013] This utility model has a simple structure. By setting a curved guide groove, the vertical surface of the groove on the track body can be bent to a certain extent. The arc-shaped track body allows the curved guide groove to drive the groove to shrink inward, avoiding the occurrence of bulges. Combined with the lubrication groove that can hold lubricants, the shower room door frame slides smoothly without jamming. Attached Figure Description

[0014] Figure 1 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the present invention;

[0015] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the installation of this utility model and a shower room door frame;

[0016] Figure 3 This is a top view of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0017] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0018] like Figures 1 to 3 The present invention preferably provides a shower enclosure arc-shaped track structure, including a track body 1, which is arc-shaped. An arc surface 2 is provided on the outer wall of the track body 1, and a groove 3 for installing a shower enclosure door frame is provided on the inner side of the track body 1. A lubrication groove 4 for installing a lubricant is provided at the top of the groove 3, and a curved guide groove 5 is provided on the track body 1. This arc-shaped track is used to install on the upper and lower sides of the arc-shaped shower enclosure door frame. The upper and lower edges of the door frame can be installed in the groove, and the lubricant is used to achieve fitting between the lubrication groove and the door frame. The curved guide groove allows the groove to have a slight inward concavity, preventing bulges on the groove surface, and the concave groove increases the tightness of the installation connection with the door frame. This arc-shaped track structure is symmetrically provided on both the upper and lower sides of the shower enclosure door frame.

[0019] The groove 3 described in this utility model is a square groove. It consists of upper and lower walls and a vertical surface disposed therebetween.

[0020] In this invention, the lubrication groove 4 is arc-shaped, and the lubricating element is a ball bearing. It is embedded between the lubrication groove of this structure and the ball bearing mounting groove of the shower door frame, serving not only a lubrication function but also to ensure a tight connection between the door frame and the groove via the ball bearing. Since this structure has one on each of the upper and lower sides of the door frame, the two symmetrical track structures can utilize the groove, lubrication groove, and ball bearing to install the door frame, enabling stable sliding.

[0021] In this invention, the curved guide groove 5 is disposed on the inner bottom wall of the track body 1 and the inner vertical wall of the groove 3. This placement allows the vertical surface of the groove to be recessed outwards, and the lower side of the groove to be slightly recessed upwards. This ensures the door frame is installed securely and moves smoothly.

[0022] The bending guide groove 5 described in this invention has a V-shaped cross-section. The V-shape reduces the difficulty of bending and provides guidance in the bending direction; the width of the V-shaped notch limits the bending angle.

[0023] The track body 1 of this invention has a support groove 6 at its top for installing a shower room door frame. The support groove accommodates other extensions of the shower room door frame, which are then placed within it for support. These extensions can be protruding components on the upper side of the door frame. By positioning the door frame within a groove and the extensions within the support groove, a more stable fit between the door frame and the track body is achieved.

[0024] The support groove 6 described in this utility model is set at a right angle. Setting it at a right angle makes it easy to match with the extension parts for the shower room door frame, resulting in a good support effect.

[0025] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles and main features of this utility model, as well as its advantages. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
