Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of item storage, and in particular to a multifunctional suction cup hanging rod. Background Technology

[0002] Towel bars are typically installed in bathrooms for hanging towels, and can also be used to hang slippers, clothing, and other daily necessities. Existing towel bars consist of a metal structure made of one or more horizontal bars supported by two supports. Once installed, the horizontal bars are fixed in position and cannot be moved, making them inconvenient to use. However, CN208551601U discloses a bathroom rack that is easier to install, comprising a main frame rod, two suction cups at both ends of the main frame rod, and parallel hanging rods pivotally connected to the main frame rod via multiple independent sleeves. The hanging rods have a fixed end and a telescopic end. The telescopic end is telescopically connected to the end of the fixed end rod, and the outer end of the telescopic end has an upwardly extending limiting post. A connecting rod is fixedly connected to the end of the suction cup rod, and the other end of the connecting rod is pivotally connected to the main frame rod via an end rod sleeve. Although the hanging rod can be adjusted for use, it rotates around the vertical main frame. When in use, the hanging rod will rotate forward and open, causing it to protrude significantly from the wall, thus taking up a lot of space. This not only affects the overall aesthetics of the bathroom but may also cause inconvenience or collisions during use. Furthermore, the hanging rod is only available in a horizontal position for hanging items, offering only one hanging method. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the defects of the prior art by providing a multifunctional suction cup hanging rod. When the rod is in the upward upright and retracted state or when it is opened horizontally to the left or right, it is close to the wall, effectively reducing the space occupied.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A multifunctional suction cup hanging rod includes a rod and a suction cup seat supporting the rod. The rod and the suction cup seat are configured to rotate horizontally relative to each other by a first rod head and a second rod head. The rod can rotate to two states: upright and retracted, and horizontally opened to either the left or right. It also includes a locking structure, which includes a slider and an arc-shaped groove respectively disposed on the first rod head and the second rod head. The slider is slidably disposed in the arc-shaped groove and abuts against the two side walls of the arc-shaped groove, thereby supporting the rod in the horizontally opened state to the left or right.

[0005] By adopting the above technical solution, the multifunctional suction cup hanging rod of this utility model realizes multiple usage states of the rod. When the rod is in the upward upright and retracted state and when it is opened horizontally to the left or right, it is close to the wall, effectively reducing the space occupied. This not only meets the user's needs for space utilization, but also improves the practicality and functionality of the hanging rod.

[0006] When the rod opens horizontally to the left or right, the slider abuts against one side of the arc-shaped groove, positioning the rod in the desired position. Users can freely choose to hang items such as towels, slippers, clothes hangers, or clothing on the rod that opens to the left or right, increasing the flexibility of use and enabling items to be hung horizontally.

[0007] When the rod is in the upright, retracted position, a roll of paper can be inserted, and the paper can be easily torn forward for use. At the same time, the paper roll will not cause the rod to move forward, thus enabling items to be hung in the vertical direction.

[0008] A further feature of this invention is that the rotation angle range of the rod is 0-180°, and the rod in the retracted state can rotate 90° to the left or right.

[0009] With the above-mentioned further design, when the rod is rotated 90° to the left or right, the rod unfolds completely horizontally, allowing it to carry items on either the left or right, greatly expanding the range of uses of the hanging rod.

[0010] A further feature of this invention is that it also includes a shift structure, which has a ball and a shift hole respectively disposed on the first rod head and the second rod head. Multiple shift holes are distributed circumferentially on the corresponding rod heads. When the rod rotates, the shift feel is achieved by switching between the ball and the multiple shift holes.

[0011] With the above-mentioned further design, the ball can be engaged in different stop holes during the rotation of the lever, thereby providing a clear stop feel and allowing the user to intuitively perceive the rotation angle of the lever and its current position.

[0012] A further feature of this invention is that the ball is specifically disposed on the outer periphery of the ring, and the ring is hollow and can be deformed under pressure.

[0013] With the above-mentioned further design, the hollow design of the ring allows it to deform to a certain extent when subjected to external force. This deformation characteristic makes it easier for the tumbler to enter or exit the shift hole, thus providing a stable shift feel while ensuring smooth rotation and convenient operation.

[0014] A further feature of this invention is that the first rod head and the second rod head are rotatably connected. The first rod head has a front-to-back split tube shaft one and a tube shaft two. The tube shaft two is fixed to the suction cup seat, and the tube shaft one is detachably connected to the suction cup seat. The second rod head has an internally hollow tube sleeve. The tube sleeve has a middle plate and tube cavities one and two located at the front and rear ends of the middle plate. The tube shaft two is inserted into tube cavity two and is engaged by a stop structure or a locking structure. The tube shaft one is inserted into tube cavity one and is engaged by a corresponding locking structure or a stop structure. The tube shaft two and tube shaft one work together to clamp the middle plate of the tube sleeve in the middle.

[0015] With the further configuration described above, tube shaft two and tube shaft one are inserted into tube cavity two and tube cavity one respectively, and then fixed using locking and stop structures. This structural design not only enhances the connection stability between the rod heads but also facilitates disassembly and assembly. When tube shaft one and tube shaft two mate, they work together on the middle plate of the sleeve, forming a stable clamping structure that ensures the stability and accuracy of the rod during rotation. Furthermore, this structural design allows the rod head to be replaced or repaired according to actual needs, improving the flexibility and durability of the entire device.

[0016] A further feature of this invention is as follows: a ring is placed inside the second tube shaft. The ring is supported by a middle plate inside the second tube shaft. The second tube shaft has a notch for the ball on the outer periphery of the ring to be exposed, and a top pressing surface opposite to the notch. The top pressing surface abuts against the outer periphery of the ring. Multiple stop holes are provided on the inner periphery of the second tube cavity.

[0017] With the above-mentioned further configuration, a ring is placed inside the second tube shaft, and the ball on the outer circumference of the ring is exposed through the notch of the second tube shaft. Then the second tube shaft is inserted into the second tube cavity. The ring is supported by the middle plate and is not easy to loosen. One side of the ring abuts against the top pressure surface, and the ball on the other side contacts the stop hole, which facilitates the compression of the ring to deform it, so as to ensure that the ball can move in and out of the notch.

[0018] A further feature of this invention is that the lower end of the suction cup seat has a support shell, and the front end of the support shell has the second tube shaft and a shaft head located inside the second tube shaft. The shaft head passes through the through hole in the middle plate and is inserted into the shaft hole of the first tube shaft. A screw channel is formed between the shaft head and the rear end of the first tube shaft. The first tube shaft is hollow inside and its front end is covered by a tube cap.

[0019] With the aforementioned further configuration, during installation, the shaft head must precisely pass through the through hole in the middle plate and be firmly inserted into the shaft hole of the first tube shaft. This step ensures precise alignment between the various components. Simultaneously, the through screw channel formed at the rear end of the shaft head and the first tube shaft facilitates subsequent screw fixing. The hollow interior of the first tube shaft not only reduces overall weight but also facilitates screw insertion. Its front end is covered by a tube cap, protecting the internal structure of the first tube shaft from dust and impurities, and also making the overall structure more aesthetically pleasing and harmonious.

[0020] A further feature of this invention is that the rod is a telescopic rod.

[0021] This further refinement, as described above, grants the pole greater flexibility. The telescopic pole's design allows users to adjust its length as needed, adapting to different usage scenarios and space constraints. Whether operating in confined spaces or reaching long distances, the telescopic pole provides a convenient solution. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0035] The technical solutions in this embodiment will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only one embodiment of the clubhead of this utility model, and not an embodiment of the entire clubhead. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0036] like Figure 1-12As shown, this utility model discloses a multifunctional suction cup hanging rod, comprising a rod 1 and a suction cup seat 2 supporting the rod. The rod 1 and the suction cup seat 2 are configured to rotate horizontally relative to each other by a first rod head A and a second rod head B. The rod 1 can rotate to two states: upright and retracted, and horizontally opened to either the left or right (it can be completely horizontal or approximately horizontal). It also includes a locking structure C, which comprises a slider C1 and an arc-shaped groove C2 respectively disposed on the first rod head A and the second rod head B. The slider C1 is slidably disposed in the arc-shaped groove C2, and abuts against the two side walls C21 of the arc-shaped groove C2, thereby supporting the rod 1 in a horizontally opened state to the left or right. Alternatively, the slider C1 can be integrally disposed on the first rod head A and the arc-shaped groove C2 on the second rod head B, or the slider C1 can be integrally disposed on the second rod head B and the arc-shaped groove C2 on the first rod head A. The rotation angle range of the lever 1 is 0-180°, and the lever 1 in the retracted state can rotate 90° to the left or right (of course, errors such as 89° or 91° are permissible). It also includes a shift structure D, which has a ball D1 and a shift hole D2 respectively disposed on the first lever head A and the second lever head B. Multiple shift holes D2 are distributed circumferentially on the corresponding lever head. When the lever 1 rotates, the shifting feel is achieved by switching between the ball D1 and the multiple shift holes D2. The ball D1 is specifically disposed on the outer circumference of the ring 6, which is hollow and can deform under pressure. The ball D1 itself can also slightly deform, causing a collision between the ball D1 and the wall of the shift hole during shifting, or the ball D1 can be abutted by a spring. The shift hole D2 is disposed on the second lever head B or the first lever head A. The aforementioned rod 1 is a telescopic rod, which has multiple rod segments that are sequentially telescopically connected, and adjacent rod segments are positioned by locking pins or bosses to prevent the rod segments from coming off.

[0037] In addition, the rod 1 can be equipped with various suspension structures such as hooks and clips to further meet the suspension needs of different items and make the hanging rod more versatile.

[0038] When using the suction cup hanging rod of this utility model, the user first selects the appropriate suction cup type (such as a vacuum suction cup, magnetic suction cup, or electrostatic suction cup), and then firmly attaches the suction cup base 2 to the corresponding wall surface according to the usage environment and needs. The suction cup has strong adsorption force, ensuring that the hanging rod remains stable under various conditions.

[0039] Next, the user can adjust the length and rotation angle of lever 1 as needed. Lever 1 can rotate freely within a range of 0-180°, switching between an upright, retracted state and a horizontally open state to either the left or right. When lever 1 is horizontally open to the left or right, the slider C1 abuts against one end wall of the arc-shaped groove C2, supporting lever 1 in the desired position to prevent it from rotating too far downwards. Users can freely choose to hang items such as towels, slippers, clothes hangers, or clothing on the left or right open lever, increasing its flexibility. When lever 1 is in the upright, retracted state, toilet paper can be inserted, and the paper can be easily torn forward for use without causing lever 1 to shift forward. Furthermore, the shifting mechanism D provides a better user experience. As lever 1 rotates, the pin D1 switches between multiple shifting holes D2, producing a distinct shifting feel.

[0040] Specifically, the first rod head A and the second rod head B are rotatably connected. The first rod head A has a front and rear separate tube shaft A1 and tube shaft A2. Tube shaft A2 is fixed to the suction cup seat 2 (it can be fixed as one piece or as separate pieces). Tube shaft A1 is detachably connected to the suction cup seat 2 (it can be connected by screws or clips). The second rod head B has a hollow tube sleeve B1. Tube sleeve B1 has a middle plate B11, tube cavity B12 and tube cavity B13 located at the front and rear ends of the middle plate. Tube shaft A2 is inserted into tube cavity B13 and cooperates with the stop structure D or the locking structure C. Tube shaft A1 is inserted into tube cavity B12 and cooperates with the corresponding locking structure C or the stop structure D. The middle plate B11 of the tube sleeve is clamped in the middle by the cooperation of tube shaft A2 and tube shaft A1. When tube shaft A2 and tube cavity B13 are engaged by stop structure D, tube shaft A1 and tube cavity B12 are engaged by locking structure C. When tube shaft A2 and tube cavity B13 are engaged by locking structure C, tube shaft A1 and tube cavity B12 are engaged by stop structure D. A ring 6 is placed inside tube shaft A2. The ring 6 is abutted against inside tube shaft A2 by a middle plate B11. Tube shaft A2 has a notch A21 for exposing the ball D1 on the outer circumference of ring 6, and a pressing surface A22 opposite to the notch A21. The pressing surface A22 abuts against the outer circumference of ring 6. Multiple stop holes (D2) are present on the inner circumference of tube cavity B13. The ball can also be integrally mounted on the outer circumference of tube shaft A2. Of course, the first rod head A can also be fitted over the second rod head B. The suction cup seat 2 has a support shell 21 at its lower end. The support shell 21 has the tube shaft A2 and the shaft head 211 located inside the tube shaft A2 at its front end. The shaft head 211 passes through the through hole B111 on the middle plate B11 and is inserted into the shaft hole A11 of the tube shaft A1. The shaft head 211 and the shaft hole A11 are also restricted from rotation by a planar fit. A screw channel 7 is formed between the shaft head 211 and the rear end of the tube shaft A1. The tube shaft A1 is hollow inside and its front end is covered by a tube cap 8.

[0041] During assembly, firstly, the retaining ring 6 is placed inside the tube shaft A2. The ball D1 on one side of the retaining ring 6 is exposed through the notch A21 of the tube shaft A2, and the other side abuts against the top pressure surface A22. The tube sleeve B1 is then fitted onto the tube shaft A2. Specifically, the tube shaft A2 is inserted into the tube cavity B13 of the tube sleeve B1, and then the tube shaft A1 is inserted into the tube cavity B12. The shaft head 211 passes through the through hole B111 on the middle plate B11 and is inserted into the shaft hole A11 of the tube shaft A1. Then, the tube shaft A1 is connected to the suction cup seat 2 by screwing it into the screw channel 7. The tube shaft A1 and the tube shaft A2 cooperate to clamp the middle plate B11 of the tube sleeve B1, thereby preventing the first rod head A and the second rod head B from separating axially.

[0042] It should be noted that in the description of this utility model, all directional indicators (such as up, down, forward, backward, etc.) are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of each rod head in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicator will also change accordingly.

[0043] Furthermore, in this utility model, the use of terms such as "first," "second," etc., is for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. In the description of this utility model, "a number" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0044] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," "fixing," and "installation" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the connection of the rod heads within two components or the interaction relationship between two components. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
