This eliminates the need for additional positioning during installation, making installation more convenient.
[0029] Furthermore, the vertical profile 2 is provided with a first retaining plate 23 perpendicular to the X-axis direction, and the vertical connecting part 32 is provided with a first retaining groove 321 that cooperates with the first retaining plate 23. When the vertical connecting part 32 enters the vertical slot 21, the first retaining groove 321 cooperates with the first retaining plate 23, which can effectively restrict the movement of the connecting module 3 relative to the vertical profile 2 along the X-axis direction, improving the stability of the connection structure between the connecting module 3 and the vertical profile 2. Moreover, the first retaining plate 23 and the first retaining groove 321 can provide installation position guidance for installers, eliminating the need for additional positioning during installation and making installation more convenient.
[0030] Furthermore, the vertical profile 2 is provided with a second retaining plate 24 perpendicular to the Y-axis direction, and the vertical connecting part 32 is provided with a second retaining groove 322 that cooperates with the second retaining plate 24. When the vertical connecting part 32 enters the vertical slot 21, the second retaining groove 322 cooperates with the second retaining plate 24, which can effectively restrict the movement of the connecting module 3 relative to the vertical profile 2 along the Y-axis direction, improving the stability of the connection structure between the connecting module 3 and the vertical profile 2. Moreover, the second retaining plate 24 and the second retaining groove 322 can provide installation position guidance for installers, eliminating the need for additional positioning during installation and making installation more convenient.
[0031] Preferably, the vertical profile 2 includes a first side plate and a second side plate parallel to the X-axis, and a third side plate and a fourth side plate parallel to the Y-axis. The first side plate is located at the end closer to the guide rail profile 1, and the second side plate is located at the end farther from the guide rail profile 1. A vertical slot 21 is formed between the first, second, third, and fourth side plates. A vertical limiting groove 22 is provided at the upper and lower ends of the first side plate. A first retaining plate 23 is provided on the first side plate and located on both sides of the vertical limiting groove 22. One end of the second retaining plate 24 is connected to the second side plate, and the other end extends into the vertical slot 21. The vertical profile 2 has a simple overall structure and a reasonable layout.
[0032] Furthermore, the guide rail profile 1 is provided with a guide rail groove 15 extending along the X-axis direction, and the connecting module 3 is provided with a groove connecting part 35 that cooperates with the guide rail groove 15. The pulley assembly connected to the door body is movably disposed within the guide rail groove 15. In some embodiments, the groove connecting part 35 is provided with a connecting groove on the side facing the guide rail profile 1, which can be connected to an anti-collision buffer module to provide anti-collision buffer for the pulley assembly.
[0033] Preferably, the lateral connecting portion 31 is provided with a plurality of lateral protrusions 310 extending along the X-axis direction on its periphery. The lateral protrusions 310 can make the lateral connecting portion 31 fit more securely with the lateral slot 11.
[0034] Preferably, the vertical connecting portion 32 is provided with a plurality of vertical ribs 320 extending along the Z-axis direction on its periphery. The vertical ribs 320 can make the vertical connecting portion 32 and the vertical slot 21 fit more securely.
[0035] Furthermore, a first locking structure is provided between the connecting module 3 and the guide rail profile 1. This first locking structure includes a first locking member 61, a first locking hole 33 on the connecting module 3, and a guide rail locking groove 14 on the guide rail profile 1. The first locking member 61 passes through the first locking hole 33 and the guide rail locking groove 14 to lock the connecting module 3 and the guide rail profile 1. The first locking member 61 can be a bolt, screw, or other connecting component. This first locking structure allows the connecting module 3 and the guide rail profile 1 to be locked together during pre-assembly, further enhancing the stability of the connection structure between them.
[0036] Furthermore, the transverse slot 11 is provided with a first extension section 12 and a second extension section 13, and the first extension section 12, the second extension section 13 and the inner wall of the transverse slot 11 form the guide rail locking groove 14. The structure is simple and easy to install.
[0037] Furthermore, a second locking structure is provided between the connecting module 3 and the vertical profile 2. This second locking structure includes a second locking member 62, a second locking hole 34 on the connecting module 3, and a vertical member locking hole 25 on the vertical profile 2. The second locking member 62 passes through the vertical member locking hole 25 and the second locking hole 34 to lock the vertical profile 2 and the connecting module 3. The second locking member 62 can be a bolt, screw, or other connecting component. This second locking structure allows the connecting module 3 to be locked to the vertical profile 2 after connection, further enhancing the stability of the connection structure between the connecting module 3 and the vertical profile 2.
[0038] Furthermore, a conveniently installed shower enclosure frame structure also includes a wall-mounted profile 4 extending along the Z-axis. The wall-mounted profile 4 has an elongated wall-mounted connection hole 41. The second locking member 62 passes sequentially through the wall-mounted connection hole 41, the vertical member locking hole 25, and the second locking hole 34 to lock the wall-mounted profile 4, the vertical member 2, and the connecting module 3. The wall-mounted profile 4 has an installation cavity 40, within which the vertical member 2 is installed. The length direction of the wall-mounted connection hole 41 is aligned with the X-axis direction. Because the wall-mounted profile 4 has an elongated wall-mounted connection hole 41, installers do not need to drill additional holes during installation. Furthermore, the mating positions of the wall-mounted profile 4, the vertical member 2, and the guide rail profile 1 can be easily adjusted according to actual installation needs, making installation convenient.
[0039] Furthermore, a conveniently installed shower enclosure frame structure also includes an end cap 5, which is located at the end of the wall-mounted profile 4 and detachably connected to it. The end cap 5 and the wall-mounted profile 4 can be connected by an interference fit or by a snap-fit mechanism. The end cap 5, installed at the end of the wall-mounted profile 4, covers the elongated wall connection hole 41 and the second locking member 62. This serves two purposes: firstly, it provides protection, effectively preventing the second locking member 62 from rusting due to prolonged contact with shower room moisture, and effectively preventing dust or debris from falling into the mounting cavity 40 and the vertical slot 21; secondly, it serves a decorative purpose, preventing the wall connection hole 41 and the second locking member 62 from being exposed, making the overall frame structure more aesthetically pleasing and improving the user experience.
