Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a shower room, and more particularly to a shower room glass door with adjustable damping force. Background Technology
[0002] Most shower enclosure glass doors with buffer functions currently use a two-way buffer pulley system, such as the one disclosed in CN104314406B. Specifically, a damping rod and a tension spring are installed inside the buffer housing of the shower enclosure glass door. A buffer stop on the guide rail triggers a locking block on the buffer, causing the spring and damping rod to stretch and provide resistance to buffer the opening or closing of the shower door. However, the damping force of this type of shower enclosure glass door is determined by the internal damping rod. This means that to change the damping force of the buffer and adjust the force required to open and close the door, one must replace the damping rod. This method of adjusting damping is cumbersome and inconvenient, resulting in a poor user experience. Utility Model Content
[0003] To make it easier for users to adjust the damping force of the buffer, this utility model provides a shower room glass door with adjustable damping force.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: An adjustable damping shower door includes a frame and a glass door panel installed within the frame. An adjustable damping buffer is provided on one side of the frame. The buffer includes a buffer housing, a damping cylinder fixed within the buffer housing, and a pivot connecting to the frame. A piston rod extends from the damping cylinder, and a compression spring is fitted around the piston rod. An adjustable damping force knob is provided on the damping cylinder. The buffer housing has an opening corresponding to the adjustment knob, exposing the knob. An adjustable movable block is installed at one end of the buffer housing. A protrusion is provided at the end of the buffer housing where the movable block is installed. The protrusion inserts into a slot in the movable block, allowing the movable block to slide along the extension direction of the protrusion.
[0005] The buffer also includes a guide cylinder with a shaft hole for the rotating shaft to pass through. One end of the compression spring abuts against the guide cylinder, and the other end abuts against the damping cylinder. When the rotating shaft rotates, the eccentric block of the rotating shaft presses against the guide cylinder, causing the guide cylinder to slide inside the buffer housing and press against the compression spring to compress it.
[0006] The buffer also includes a pressing slider, which is installed in the guide groove of the guide cylinder. One end of the pressing slider abuts against one end of the piston rod, and the other end abuts against the actuating block on the rotating shaft.
[0007] The pressing slider has a protruding abutting ridge at the position where it abuts the actuating block, and the front end of the actuating block has a prism-shaped actuating protrusion. When the rotating shaft is stationary, the actuating protrusion contacts the abutting ridge. When the rotating shaft rotates, the actuating protrusion moves away from the abutting ridge, and the pressing slider is pressed close to the rotating shaft by the piston rod.
[0008] An extension rod is installed at one end of the piston rod, and a groove is provided at one end of the extension rod. The piston rod abuts against the groove, and the other end of the extension rod abuts against the pressing slider.
[0009] A spring is provided between the movable block and the buffer housing. The buffer housing is provided with a spring groove, and the spring is installed in the spring groove. A fixing post is provided on the movable block. One end of the spring is fitted on the outside of the fixing post, and the other end abuts against the spring groove.
[0010] The buffer housing is provided with a fixing part, which has a strip hole for fixing the buffer. The movable block is also provided with a fixing screw hole. When fixing, screws are screwed into the strip hole and the fixing screw hole to fix it.
[0011] The buffer housing has an internal thread, and the damping cylinder has a threaded portion. The threaded portion is screwed onto the internal thread to thread-fix the damping cylinder inside the buffer housing.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: A buffer is provided on one side of the shower room glass door frame, and an adjustable damping cylinder is installed inside the buffer housing. By turning the adjustment knob on the damping cylinder, the damping force can be adjusted. Users can adjust the damping force according to the weight of the shower room glass door and their usage habits. The damping force can be adjusted without replacing the damping cylinder, making adjustment more convenient and improving the user experience of the shower room glass door. Furthermore, an adjustable movable block is installed at one end of the buffer housing. Since the shower room glass door needs fine-tuning after installation, the adjustable movable block allows the position of the buffer to be adjusted while one end is fixed, facilitating the installation of the shower room glass door.

[0022] It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of this invention.
[0023] Reference Figures 1 to 7 An adjustable damping shower door includes a frame and a glass door panel installed within the frame. An adjustable damping buffer is provided on one side of the frame. The buffer includes a buffer housing 1, a damping cylinder 2 fixed within the buffer housing 1, and a pivot 3 connecting to the frame. A piston rod 20 extends from the damping cylinder 2, and a compression spring 4 is fitted around the piston rod 20. An adjustable damping knob 21 is provided on the damping cylinder 2. The buffer housing 1 has an opening corresponding to the adjustable knob 21, exposing the knob 21. In this embodiment, the damping cylinder is... The stepless adjustable damper disclosed in patent document CN112747064A is existing technology, so its internal structure will not be described in detail in this application. In this embodiment, a damper is provided on one side of the shower room glass door frame, and an adjustable damping cylinder is installed inside the damper housing. By turning the adjustment knob on the damping cylinder, the damping force of the damping cylinder can be adjusted. Users can accurately adjust the damping force according to the weight of the shower room glass door and their usage habits. The damping force can be adjusted without replacing the damping cylinder, making adjustment more convenient and improving the user experience of the shower room glass door.
[0024] An adjustable movable block 5 is installed at one end of the buffer housing 1. A protrusion 10 is provided at the end of the buffer housing 1 where the movable block 5 is installed. The protrusion 10 passes through the insertion groove 50 of the movable block 5, so that the movable block 5 slides along the extension direction of the protrusion 10. The present invention also installs an adjustable movable block at one end of the buffer housing. Since the shower room glass door needs to be fine-tuned after installation, the position of the buffer can be adjusted by the adjustable movable block while fixing one end, which facilitates the installation of the shower room glass door.
[0025] The buffer also includes a guide cylinder 6, which has a shaft hole through which the rotating shaft 3 passes. One end of the compression spring 4 abuts against the guide cylinder 6 and the other end abuts against the damping cylinder 2. When the rotating shaft 3 rotates, the eccentric block 30 of the rotating shaft 3 presses against the guide cylinder 6, causing the guide cylinder 6 to slide inside the buffer housing 1 and press against the compression spring 4 to compress it.
[0026] The buffer also includes a pressing slider 7, which is installed in the guide groove of the guide cylinder 6. One end of the pressing slider 7 abuts against one end of the piston rod 20, and the other end abuts against the actuating block 31 on the rotating shaft 3. The pressing slider 7 has a protruding abutting ridge 70 at the position where it abuts against the actuating block 31. The front end of the actuating block 31 has a prism-shaped actuating protrusion 310. When the rotating shaft 3 is stationary, the actuating protrusion 310 contacts the abutting ridge 70. When the rotating shaft 3 rotates, the actuating protrusion 310 moves away from the abutting ridge 70, and the pressing slider 7 is pressed close to the rotating shaft 3 by the piston rod 20.
[0027] An extension rod 22 is installed at one end of the piston rod 20. A groove is provided at one end of the extension rod 22, and the piston rod 20 abuts in the groove. The other end of the extension rod 22 abuts against the pressing slider 7.
[0028] A spring 8 is provided between the movable block 5 and the buffer housing 1. The buffer housing 1 is provided with a spring groove 11, and the spring 8 is installed in the spring groove 11. A fixing post 51 is provided on the movable block 5. One end of the spring 8 is fitted onto the outside of the fixing post 51, and the other end abuts against the spring groove 11. By providing a spring between the movable block and the buffer housing, during installation, one end of the movable block is first fixed to the frame of the shower room glass door. Because of the spring, the spring force can press against the buffer housing, making it easy to adjust the buffer housing to a suitable position for fixing.
[0029] The buffer housing 1 is provided with a fixing part 12, which is provided with a strip hole 120 for fixing the buffer. The movable block 5 is also provided with a fixing screw hole 52. When fixing, screws are screwed into the strip hole 120 and the fixing screw hole 52. Since the fixing position of the buffer is not fixed, it needs to be flexibly adjusted according to the actual scenario. The strip hole allows the buffer to be adapted to more hole spacing installation positions when fixed, making the installation more convenient.
[0030] The buffer housing 1 has an internal thread, and the damping cylinder 2 has a threaded portion 23. The threaded portion 23 is screwed onto the internal thread to thread-fix the damping cylinder 2 inside the buffer housing 1.
