Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of bathtub technology, and more particularly to a bathtub with a movable shelf. Background Technology
[0002] A bathtub is a plumbing fixture used for bathing or showering, typically installed in a home bathroom. Modern bathtubs are mostly made of acrylic or fiberglass, and some are made of steel covered with ceramic. In recent years, wooden bathtubs have also become increasingly popular. With the rapid pace of social development, enjoying life without interfering with work is a goal pursued by modern people. Taking a bath can help relieve the fatigue of a day's work, but due to work pressure, more and more people do not have time to enjoy a full bath.
[0003] However, existing bathtubs with movable shelves typically have a rectangular board temporarily placed above the bathtub as a shelf. This temporary shelf is not stable enough and is difficult to move, thus affecting its use. In addition, different users have different heights, so the required shelf height also varies, and a fixed height cannot meet the needs of different people. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the above problems, this application provides a bathtub with a movable shelf to solve the problems of existing bathtubs with movable shelves, which generally use a rectangular board temporarily placed above the bathtub as a shelf. Such a temporary shelf is not stable enough and is also troublesome to move, thus affecting its use. At the same time, different users have different heights, so the required shelf height is also different, and a fixed height cannot meet the needs of different people.
[0005] This application provides a bathtub with a movable shelf. It includes a bathtub body, with limiting grooves on both outer walls. Limiting blocks are movably fitted inside the limiting grooves. A bolt is threaded onto one side of each limiting block, and the bolt is movably fitted onto one side of a connecting rod. Movable rods are provided at the top ends of the two connecting rods, and shelf bodies are fixedly installed at the top ends of the two movable rods.
[0006] With the above method, after placing the shelf at the top of the bathtub body, the bolt is tightened, causing the limiting block to move threadedly on the outer wall of the bolt. This allows the limiting block to slide outward from the groove on one side of the connecting rod and then move into the limiting groove. The limiting blocks on both sides fix the position of the shelf, preventing it from moving left or right. This allows the shelf to detach from the sides of the bathtub body. Then, the shelf can be pushed to move left or right at the top of the bathtub body.
[0007] In some embodiments, the inner walls of the bottom ends of the two connecting rods are provided with grooves, and the limiting block is movably sleeved inside the grooves.
[0008] With the above solution, when the bolt is tightened, the limiting block moves along the outer wall of the bolt and slides outward from the groove. The groove plays a good role in storage and avoids affecting the placement of the shelf.
[0009] In some embodiments, a screw is movably sleeved on the top of the shelf body, and toothed wheels are fixedly installed on the outer walls of the two screws. A toothed belt is meshed with the outer wall of the toothed wheel. A fixing rod is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the screw, and the outer wall of the fixing rod is movably sleeved inside the storage slot, which is located at the bottom of the shelf body.
[0010] The above solution involves turning a screw to rotate a toothed wheel, which in turn rotates a toothed belt. The belt's linkage causes two toothed wheels to rotate synchronously, resulting in two fixed rods moving threadedly on the screw's outer wall. The fixed rods then move downwards from the storage slot, adjusting the height of the shelf. This allows for adaptation to different users and improves ease of use and practicality.
[0011] In some embodiments, the inner wall of the storage slot is symmetrically provided with sliding grooves, and a slider is movably sleeved inside the sliding groove. The two sliders are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the fixed rod.
[0012] With the above scheme, when the fixed rod moves threadedly on the outer wall of the screw, the fixed rod moves downward from the receiving groove, which also causes the slider to slide in the groove. The slider and the groove play a role in stabilizing the sliding.
[0013] In some embodiments, a seat cushion is fixedly installed on one side of the inner wall of the bathtub body, and a plurality of support blocks are fixedly installed on the top of the seat cushion.
[0014] With the above solution, when using the bathtub body and sitting on the cushion, several support blocks provide support and prevent slipping, thus improving stability when sitting.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0016] 1. By tightening the bolts, the limiting blocks move threadedly on the outer wall of the bolts and are then inserted into the limiting grooves. The limiting blocks on both sides fix the position of the shelf, preventing the shelf from moving left or right. This allows the shelf to detach from the sides of the bathtub body. Then, by pushing the shelf, it can move left or right at the top of the bathtub body. Tightening the bolts to disengage the limiting blocks from the limiting grooves effectively facilitates disassembly and installation, preventing the shelf from interfering with cleaning the inner wall of the bathtub body.
[0017] 2. By turning a screw, the toothed wheel rotates, which in turn drives the toothed belt to rotate. The linkage of the toothed belt causes the two toothed wheels to rotate synchronously, which in turn causes the two fixing rods to move threadedly on the outer wall of the screw. The fixing rods move downward from the storage slot, thereby adjusting the height of the shelf. This can accommodate different users and improve the convenience and practicality of use.

[0030] To facilitate understanding of the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0031] This application provides a bathtub with a movable shelf. For example... Figures 1-4As shown, the bathtub body 1 is provided. Limiting grooves 2 are provided on both outer walls of the bathtub body 1. Limiting blocks 3 are movably connected inside the limiting grooves 2. Bolts 4 are threadedly connected to one side of the limiting blocks 3. Bolts 4 are movably connected to one side of the connecting rods 6. Movable rods 7 are provided at the top of the two connecting rods 6. Shelves 8 are fixedly installed at the top of the two movable rods 7.
[0032] After placing the shelf 8 at the top of the bathtub body 1, tighten the bolt 4 to make the limiting block 3 move threadedly on the outer wall of the bolt 4, so that the limiting block 3 slides out of the groove 5 on one side of the connecting rod 6 and is inserted into the limiting groove 2. The position of the shelf 8 is fixed by the limiting blocks 3 on both sides, preventing the shelf 8 from moving left and right, so that the shelf 8 can be separated from the sides of the bathtub body 1. Then push the shelf 8 so that the shelf 8 can move left and right at the top of the bathtub body 1.
[0033] In the technical solution of this application embodiment, the inner wall of the bottom end of the two connecting rods 6 is provided with a groove 5, and the limiting block 3 is movably sleeved inside the groove 5.
[0034] Tightening bolt 4 causes the limiting block 3 to move threadedly on the outer wall of bolt 4 and slide outward from the groove 5. The groove 5 provides good storage and avoids affecting the placement of the shelf body 8.
[0035] In the technical solution of this application embodiment, a screw 9 is movably sleeved at the top of the shelf body 8, and toothed wheels 10 are fixedly installed on the outer walls of the two screws 9. A toothed belt 11 is meshed with the outer wall of the toothed wheels 10. A fixing rod 12 is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the screw 9. The outer wall of the fixing rod 12 is movably sleeved inside the storage groove 13. The storage groove 13 is opened at the bottom of the shelf body 8.
[0036] By turning a screw 9, the toothed wheel 10 is driven to rotate. The toothed wheel 10 then drives the toothed belt 11 to rotate. The linkage of the toothed belt 11 will drive the two toothed wheels 10 to rotate synchronously, thereby causing the two fixing rods 12 to move threadedly on the outer wall of the screw 9. The fixing rods 12 move downward from the storage slot 13, thereby adjusting the height of the shelf body 8. This can accommodate different users and improve the convenience and practicality of use.
[0037] In the technical solution of this application embodiment, the inner wall of the storage groove 13 is symmetrically provided with a sliding groove 14, and a slider 15 is movably sleeved inside the sliding groove 14. The two sliders 15 are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the fixed rod 12.
[0038] When the fixing rod 12 moves threadedly on the outer wall of the screw 9, the fixing rod 12 moves downward from the receiving groove 13, which also causes the slider 15 to slide in the slide groove 14. The slider 15 and the slide groove 14 play a role in stabilizing the sliding.
[0039] In the technical solution of this application embodiment, a seat cushion 16 is fixedly installed on one side of the inner wall of the bathtub body 1, and a number of support blocks 17 are fixedly installed on the top of the seat cushion 16.
[0040] When using the bathtub body 1, after sitting on the seat cushion 16, several support blocks 17 provide support and prevent slipping, thus avoiding slipping and improving stability when sitting.
