Technical fields:

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of bathroom manufacturing technology, specifically relating to a rotatable and limiting slide structure. Background Technology

[0002] Most shower rod slides on the market today can rotate 360°. However, their stability is insufficient. When subjected to significant external force or large angle adjustments, they may wobble or loosen, affecting the user experience. Furthermore, due to their structure, after frequent use, the internal rotating parts are prone to insufficient load-bearing capacity, jamming, or becoming stuck. Utility model content:

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a rotatable limiting slide structure, which has a rotatable limiting function and is not easy to loosen or slip off after long-term use.

[0008] Preferably, the error-proof structure includes a positioning groove on the inner core of the slide block, a positioning protrusion and a limiting rib on the limiting turntable, and a limiting slot inside the slide block socket. The positioning groove is inserted into the positioning protrusion, and the limiting rib is engaged with the limiting slot.

[0009] Preferably, a rotating washer is also included, which is sleeved on the screw and located between the inner core of the slide and the limiting turntable, in order to reduce rotational friction between the two.

[0010] Preferably, the slide base housing has slots at both ends, and friction rings are embedded in the slots to enhance the friction between the slide base and the shower rod.

[0011] Preferably, the inner core of the slide block has a mounting cavity for accommodating the spring, the button, and the friction pad.

[0012] Preferably, the limiting structure is a stop block provided on the inner core of the slide block, and the limiting block on the limiting turntable contacts the stop block during rotation to achieve mechanical limiting of the rotation angle.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0014] Based on the existing slide block, this utility model retains the basic functions of the existing slide block and adds the functions of installation error prevention and rotation limit, which not only improves the accuracy and efficiency of assembly, but also greatly increases the safety and stability of the slide block.

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0019] like Figure 1-2 As shown, a rotatable and limiting slide structure includes a slide housing 2, a slide core 9 disposed within the slide housing 2, a slide socket 11 for connecting a shower head, a button 4, a spring 1, and a friction pad 5. The button 4 and the friction pad 5 are linked by the spring 1 so that the friction pad 5 has a locked position that is pressed against the shower rod and a released position that is separated from the shower rod; it also includes a limiting turntable 10, a screw 6, and a spring washer 7;

[0020] The inner core 9 of the slide block, the limiting turntable 10 and the slide block socket 11 are connected and locked in series by screws 6, and the spring washer 7 is sleeved on the screws 6 and provides axial preload.

[0021] The inner core 9 of the slide block is provided with a limiting structure, and the limiting turntable 10 is provided with a limiting block that cooperates with the limiting structure. When the slide block socket 11 drives the limiting turntable 10 to rotate, the limiting block contacts the limiting structure to limit its rotation angle range.

[0022] In this embodiment, the limiting structure is a stop block provided on the inner core 9 of the slide block. The limiting block on the limiting turntable 10 contacts the stop block during rotation to achieve mechanical limiting of the rotation angle.

[0023] In one embodiment, an anti-misalignment structure is provided between the slide inner core 9, the limiting turntable 10, and the slide socket 11, ensuring that the three components can only be assembled in one correct orientation. In this embodiment, the anti-misalignment structure includes a positioning groove on the slide inner core 9, a positioning protrusion and a limiting rib on the limiting turntable 10, and a limiting slot inside the slide socket 11. The positioning groove engages with the positioning protrusion, and the limiting rib engages with the limiting slot.

[0024] As one implementation, a rotating washer 8 is also included. The rotating washer 8 is sleeved on the screw 6 and located between the inner core 9 of the slide and the limiting turntable 10 to reduce the rotational friction between the two.

[0025] Furthermore, the slide base housing 2 has slots at both ends, and friction rings 3 are embedded in the slots to enhance the friction between the slide base and the shower rod.

[0026] In addition, the inner core 9 of the slide block has a mounting cavity for accommodating the spring 1, the button 4 and the friction pad 5.

[0027] In the above structure, spring 1 provides a reset force for button 4, ensuring that the friction pad 5 and the shower rod always maintain stable contact pressure; the slide housing 2 is the external protection and support frame of the overall structure, housing all internal core components; the friction ring 3 is used to enhance the friction between the slide and the shower rod, helping to improve the overall installation stability of the slide and prevent accidental sliding; button 4 is the user operation component, which can release the pressure of the friction pad 5 on the shower rod when pressed, making it easy to adjust the position or angle of the slide; the friction pad 5 is in direct contact with the shower rod, generating friction through the pressure transmitted by spring 1, and is a key component for slide positioning; screw 6 is used to connect the spring washer 7, the rotating washer 8, the slide inner core 9, the limiting turntable 10, and the slide insert. The seat 11 is locked in place; the spring washer 7 generates elastic preload during assembly to prevent the screw 6 from loosening due to vibration during long-term use, thus improving connection reliability; the rotating washer 8 is used to reduce rotational friction between the inner core 9 of the slide and the limiting turntable 10, reducing component wear and extending service life; the inner core 9 of the slide is the core carrier of internal functions, integrating the limiting structure, and providing installation space for the spring 1, button 4, and friction pad 5; the limiting turntable 10 rotates in conjunction with the slide socket 11, limiting the rotation range by cooperating with the limiting structure of the inner core 9 of the slide; the slide socket 11 is the core component for connecting the shower head, and its internal structure matches the limiting turntable 10, driving the limiting turntable 10 to move synchronously when rotating.

[0028] During installation, follow these steps:

[0029] 1. Pre-assembly of basic components: First, accurately place the limiting turntable 10 into the corresponding positioning slot in the inner core 9 of the slide block, and then fasten the slide block socket 11 onto the limiting turntable 10. Due to the error-proof structure design among the three components, the parts can only be assembled in one correct direction, completely avoiding problems such as reverse assembly and misalignment.

[0030] 2. Core Component Locking: Screw 6 is passed sequentially through the pre-drilled holes in the spring washer 7, rotating washer 8, slide inner core 9, and the center hole of the limiting turntable 10, finally tightening it into the internal threaded hole of the slide socket 11. During this step, the spring washer 7 undergoes elastic deformation, creating a continuous preload to ensure that screw 6 does not loosen during long-term use. Simultaneously, the rotating washer 8 reduces friction between components during subsequent rotation. After the core components are installed, when the slide socket 11 rotates, its internal structure drives the limiting turntable 10 to rotate synchronously. When the limiting block on the limiting turntable 10 contacts the stop block of the slide inner core 9, the rotation stops, thus achieving rotational limitation within a specific angle range. This effectively prevents component misalignment or loosening due to excessive rotation, improving safety during use.

[0031] 3. Assembly of functional components: Install the three components in the corresponding mounting cavities of the slide inner core 9 in the order of "spring 1 → button 4 → friction pad 5"; then push the assembled slide inner core 9 into the slide outer shell 2 until it is pushed to the bottom to complete the initial fixation. Finally, snap the friction rings 3 into the slots at both ends of the slide outer shell 9 to complete the slide installation.

[0032] Based on existing slides on the market, this utility model retains the basic functions of existing slides and adds functions for error prevention during installation and rotation limit, which not only improves the accuracy and efficiency of assembly, but also greatly increases the safety and stability of the slide.

[0033] It has the following advantages:

[0034] First, it is low-cost. The core components are all made of engineering plastics through one-piece injection molding, which eliminates the need for complex machining and greatly reduces material and machining costs.

[0035] Second, the installation incorporates error-proofing features. The structure incorporates error-proofing design between parts, ensuring that each part can only be installed in a single orientation, thereby avoiding directional errors during installation and improving the accuracy and efficiency of assembly.

[0036] The rotation limit function restricts the range of motion of the slide, preventing the nozzle from colliding with the wall or falling off due to excessive rotation. This ensures that the slide can only rotate within a certain range, increasing its safety and stability.
