The legs 202 of the first support 1 are hingedly connected to the legs 202 of the second support 2, respectively, so that the two ends of the support form an X shape. When the bathtub rack is used, the first support 1 and the second support 2 are unfolded in place, and the bathtub is placed on the two crossbars 201.

[0027] As shown in Figures 2 to 5As shown, the bathtub rack further comprises a fixing assembly, the fixing assembly comprises a first housing 3 arranged at the hinge of the first support 1 leg 202, and a second housing 4 arranged at the hinge of the second support 2 leg 202, the first housing 3 is provided with a limiting groove 5, and the second housing 4 is movably provided with a limiting block 6 matched with the limiting groove 5, that is, the shape of the limiting block 6 corresponds to the limiting groove 5, and when the limiting block 6 is inserted into the limiting groove 5, the limiting block 6 cannot move. An elastic member 7 is arranged between the second housing 4 and the limiting block 6, when the leg 202 is rotated to align the limiting block 6 with the limiting groove 5, the elastic member 7 pushes the limiting block 6 to at least partially insert into the limiting groove 5. That is, when the limiting block 6 is not aligned with the limiting groove 5, the limiting block 6 is retracted into the second housing 4, and the spring is compressed, and when the spring returns to the initial state, the limiting block 6 is automatically pushed outwards.

[0028] The fixing assembly further comprises a driving member arranged on the first housing 3, which can push the limiting block 6 out of the limiting groove 5. When the bathtub rack needs to be folded, the driving member can push the limiting block 6 out of the limiting groove 5, so that the legs 202 can rotate to achieve folding.

[0029] In this embodiment, the fixing assembly is arranged on the legs on the left and right sides of the first support 1 and the second support 2, that is, when the bathtub rack needs to be folded, the driving members on both sides need to push the limiting blocks 6 out of the limiting grooves 5, so that the legs on both sides can rotate to the folding state, and the folding can be realized.

[0030] In this embodiment, the driving member is a button 8 slidably connected to the first housing 3, the button 8 is located on the side of the first housing 3 away from the second housing 4, and a through hole 9 communicating with the limiting groove 5 is formed on the side of the first housing 3 away from the second housing 4, a push rod 10 is arranged on the button 8, the push rod 10 is slidably connected to the through hole 9, and the push rod 10 penetrates into the limiting groove 5 through the through hole 9. Therefore, by pressing the button 8, the push rod 10 can push the limiting block 6 out of the limiting groove 5. A barb 11 slidably connected to the first housing 3 is arranged on the button 8, when the spring is in the initial state, the limiting block 6 is pushed into the limiting groove 5, and the button 8 is pushed outwards, at this time, the barb 11 is clamped with the edge of the first housing 3, so that the button 8 cannot fall off the first housing 3. A plurality of convex points 16 are arranged on the outside of the button 8, the convex points 16 can facilitate the user to touch, increase the friction, and be easy to touch and identify.

[0031] In this embodiment, the elastic member 7 is a spring, the spring is arranged on the side of the limiting block 6 away from the first housing 3, when the spring is in the initial state, the spring pushes the limiting block 6 to at least partially insert into the limiting groove 5, and when the leg 202 is in the rotating state, the limiting block 6 is retracted into the second housing 4, and the spring is in the compressed state.

[0032] The second shell 4 is provided with a positioning sleeve 12, the positioning sleeve 12 extends along the length direction of the spring, the top end of the positioning sleeve 12 is open, and one end of the spring is arranged in the positioning sleeve 12; the positioning sleeve 12 is arranged to avoid bending and deviation of the spring, and stability is improved.

[0033] The limiting block 6 is provided with a plurality of tooth blocks 13 on the edge, and the limiting groove 5 is provided with a plurality of corresponding tooth accommodating grooves 14 on the edge. When the first support 1 and the second support 2 are opened to the position, the spring pushes the limiting block 6 into the limiting groove 5, and the tooth block 13 is correspondingly inserted into the tooth accommodating groove 14.

[0034] As shown in Figure 6 The side wall of one end of the tooth block 13 is provided with an inclined surface 15, both sides of the tooth block 13 are provided with the inclined surface 15, the thickness of the tooth block 13 towards one end of the first shell 3 is smaller than the thickness of the tooth block 13 away from one end of the first shell 3, that is, the head of the tooth block 13 is sharpened, so that the tooth block 13 is more easily inserted into the tooth accommodating groove 14, and the structure is not easy to be stuck.

[0035] As shown in Figure 1 The connecting block 17 is arranged on the cross rod 201 and is fixed between the connecting block 17 and the cross rod 201 by screws, the connecting block 17 protrudes above the cross rod 201, and the connecting block 17 is used for clamping the edges of both ends of the bathtub.

[0036] The hanging rod 18 is arranged between the two legs 202 of the cross rod 201, and the two ends of the hanging rod 18 are respectively inserted into the connecting sleeves on the legs 202, so that the hanging rod 18 can conveniently hang bath towels and other bath supplies.

[0037] The working process of the utility model is as follows:

[0038] When the bathtub support is used, the first support 1 and the second support 2 are unfolded outward to the position, so that the limiting block 6 is aligned with the limiting groove 5, at this time, the spring restores the limiting block 6 to push the limiting block 6 into the limiting groove 5, so that the hinged legs 202 are fixed and cannot continue to rotate, and the user can arrange the bathtub support on the two cross rods 201; when the bathtub support is used up and needs to be folded, the buttons 8 of the two side fixing assemblies are pressed inward, so that the limiting block 6 moves out of the limiting groove 5, so that the hinged legs 202 restore the rotatable state to realize the folding of the bathtub support.

[0039] The above only describes the preferred embodiment of the utility model, and is not used to limit the utility model, any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. within the design concept of the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
