Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of bathroom products, and in particular, it is a simple and convenient bathtub bracket. Background Technology

[0002] Bathtubs are inherently heavy, especially when filled with water. Bathtub supports provide stable support, ensuring the bathtub is placed flat and preventing deformation, damage, or sinking due to its weight, thus extending the bathtub's lifespan. Traditional bathtub supports can meet basic usage needs, but they are less convenient and easier to install and adjust, increasing the time and difficulty of operation.

[0003] A search of Chinese patent documents (authorization announcement number CN209984108U) reveals that this utility model provides a bathtub bracket support module, comprising: a bracket including a mounting part, which is arranged parallel to the mounting surface; a positioning part, embedded in the mounting part; and an adjusting part disposed between the mounting part and the mounting surface, with its first end face contacting the mounting surface and its second end fixedly connected to the positioning part. The adjusting part is a leveling foot; the positioning part is a rivet nut. A fixing part is fixedly connected to the mounting surface; a fixing hole is formed on the fixing part; the leveling foot passes through the fixing hole and is fixedly connected to the rivet nut. The bathtub bracket support module provided by this utility model is industrially produced in a factory, enabling rapid construction. This bathtub bracket can meet basic usage needs, but its ease of use is relatively weak, and installation and adjustment are not convenient enough, increasing operator time and operational difficulty. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a simple and convenient bathtub bracket to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a simple and convenient bathtub bracket, including a C-shaped steel bracket for supporting the bathtub, wherein the bottom of the C-shaped steel bracket is provided with a multi-tiered base for supporting the overall weight;

[0006] The five-element base has a threaded hole inside for fixing, and a screw is rotatably connected inside the threaded hole for connection. A fixing nut for adjusting and limiting the screw is rotatably connected to the top of the five-element base. The five-element base has a mating groove inside for guiding and fixing.

[0007] Preferably, the bottom of the five-petal floor is provided with an anti-slip pad for protecting the floor, and the top of the anti-slip pad is connected with a locking post for fixing the anti-slip pad.

[0008] Preferably, the locking pin is slidably disposed inside the mating groove, and the anti-slip pad is made of rubber and plastic.

[0009] Preferably, the surface of the C-shaped steel bracket is provided with a guide hole for the screw to pass through, and an adjusting nut for fixing the C-shaped steel bracket is provided at the top of the guide hole.

[0010] Preferably, a positioning nut for adjusting the height of the C-shaped steel bracket is provided at the bottom of the guide hole.

[0011] Preferably, both the positioning nut and the adjusting nut are rotatably mounted on the outer periphery of the screw.

[0012] Preferably, the C-shaped steel bracket and the contact part with the bathtub are both provided with anti-slip protective pads to protect the bathtub.

[0013] Preferably, the C-shaped steel bracket is fixed to the wooden board pad at the bottom of the bathtub with self-tapping screws. The C-shaped steel bracket has 6 small openings to accommodate the bottom of the bathtub with different shapes.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] This simple and convenient bathtub bracket benefits from the structure of the positioning nut and adjusting nut. The adjusting nut is used to fix the C-shaped steel bracket, and the positioning nut and adjusting nut form a double nut fixation to prevent the C-shaped steel bracket from loosening or shifting position. The nut fixing operation is not complicated. Just use common tools such as wrenches to tighten the nuts. Even ordinary users without professional installation experience can easily complete the installation of the bathtub bracket by referring to the instruction manual, which greatly saves time and labor costs. Compared with traditional simple and convenient bathtub brackets, which are weaker in terms of ease of use, this structure improves the ease of use of the bathtub bracket. The installation and adjustment are convenient enough, reducing the operation time and reducing the difficulty of operation.

[0016] This simple and convenient bathtub support benefits from the structure of its five-pointed star feet and anti-slip mat. The five-pointed star feet, through multiple support points and a large contact area, evenly distribute the weight of the bathtub, reducing local pressure and enhancing overall stability. The anti-slip mat further increases friction with the ground, preventing the support from shifting due to external forces or uneven ground. The two work together, with the C-shaped steel support fixed to the wooden board pad at the bottom of the bathtub using self-tapping screws, making the bathtub more stable during use and reducing the risk of shaking and tipping.
