Detailed Implementation

[0035] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0036] This utility model relates to a slide block, including a base 100, a rotating component 300, and a locking component 400.

[0037] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the seat 100 is provided with a spring-loaded fastener 200 that can elastically swing. The spring-loaded fastener 200 can be integrally formed on the seat 100 or assembled onto the seat 100 as an independent component. In the direction shown in the figure, the spring-loaded fastener 200 can elastically swing left and right on the seat 100. The right side of the rotating member 300 is mounted on the seat 100 via a third rotating shaft 130. The rotating member 300 can rotate relative to the seat 100 around the third rotating shaft 130. During rotation, the left side of the rotating member 300 can move closer to or further away from the spring-loaded fastener 200. After the left side of the rotating member 300 moves closer to the spring-loaded fastener 200, the left side of the rotating member 300 can be engaged with the spring-loaded fastener 200. Under the action of elasticity, the spring-loaded fastener 200 can maintain engagement with the rotating member 300. After engagement, a cavity 101 is defined between the rotating member 300 and the seat 100. The cavity 101 is used for the insertion of pipe fittings. The surrounding cavity 101 is equivalent to mounting a slide block onto the pipe fitting. The slide block can slide up and down relative to the pipe fitting. The slide block can utilize the clamping friction of the surrounding cavity 101 on the pipe fitting, or install other friction components on the slide block to increase friction with the pipe fitting, so that the slide block is positioned relative to the pipe fitting at its current position. The pipe fitting can be round, square, etc., and the surrounding cavity 101 is correspondingly configured as a circular or rectangular cavity with openings at both ends. Alternatively, the rotating component 300 can have a semi-circular cavity, and the seat 100 can have a semi-circular cavity; the two semi-circular cavities are joined together to form the surrounding cavity 101. During disassembly, such as... Figure 4As shown, by actuating the spring-loaded fastener 200, it elastically swings and disengages from the rotating member 300, releasing the engagement. The rotating member 300 rotates around the third pivot 130 and moves away from the spring-loaded fastener 200, opening the periphery of the cavity 101. This allows the slide to disengage from the pipe along its radial direction. The locking member 400 can be mounted on the base 100 or the spring-loaded fastener 200. When mounted on the base 100, the locking member 400 moves relative to the base 100 between a first position and a second position. When mounted on the spring-loaded fastener 200, the locking member 400 moves relative to the base 100 between a first position and a second position. Initially, when the locking member 400 is pushed to the second position, the rotating member 300 and the spring-loaded fastener 200 can engage or disengage. After the rotating component 300 engages with the spring-loaded fastener 200, the locking component 400 is pushed from the second position to the first position. The locking component 400 restricts the spring-loaded fastener 200, thereby locking the spring-loaded fastener 200 and the seat 100 in a relatively fixed position. This prevents the spring-loaded fastener 200 from swinging away from the rotating component 300, locking it in its current position and ensuring a stable engagement between the rotating component 300 and the spring-loaded fastener 200. The engagement between the rotating component 300 and the spring-loaded fastener 200 allows for rapid closing or opening of the enclosure 101. The slide can be quickly installed and removed from any position on the pipe fitting. The locking component 400 provides a self-locking function for the spring-loaded fastener 200, ensuring the stability of the slide after installation on the pipe fitting.

[0038] This utility model also relates to a shower head assembly, including a shower head and a sliding seat. The shower head is connected to a water supply pipe via a water pipe, and the sliding seat is fitted onto the water supply pipe via a cavity 101. The water supply pipe is one embodiment of the aforementioned pipe fitting. The shower head can be detachably installed on the sliding seat by means of plugging or other methods.

[0039] The fastening structure between the rotating component 300 and the spring-loaded fastener 200 can be such that one of the rotating component 300 and the spring-loaded fastener 200 has a hook, and the other has a latch, with the hook and latch engaging with each other. In this embodiment, as shown... Figure 3 As shown, the spring buckle 200 is provided with a first hook 210, and the rotating part 300 is provided with a second hook 310 on the left side. The first hook 210 and the second hook 310 are fastened together by the cooperation of the first hook 210 and the second hook 310.

[0040] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the spring-loaded fastener 200 includes a swing member 220 and a first elastic member 230. The swing member 220 is swingably mounted on the base 100. The swing member 220 can be integrally formed on the base 100 or installed on the base 100 as an independent component. In this embodiment, the swing member 220 is swingably mounted on the base 100 via a first pivot 240, and the swing member 220 swings around the first pivot 240. In the direction shown in the figure, the first pivot 240 passes through the middle of the swing member 220. A first hook portion 210 is provided on the right side of the front part of the swing member 220, and a second hook portion 310 is provided on the left side of the rotating member 300. The rotating member 300 and the swing member 220 are detachably fastened together. After fastening, the second hook portion 310 is located to the right of the first hook portion 210. When the front part of the swing member 220 swings to the left, it can disengage from the rotating member 300. The first elastic element 230 can be a spring or the like. One end of the first elastic element 230 can abut against the seat 100, and the other end abuts against the right side of the rear of the swing member 220. The first pivot 240 is located between the first hook 210 and the first elastic element 230. The first elastic element 230 applies an elastic force to the swing member 220. This elastic force causes the rear of the swing member 220 to tend to move to the left, causing the front of the swing member 220 to tend to swing to the right, which in turn causes the first hook 210 to tend to engage with the second hook 310 of the rotating member 300. When it is necessary to disengage the first hook 210 and the second hook 310, the rear of the swing member 220 is pressed to the right, and the front of the swing member 220 swings to the left to disengage from the second hook 310. Under the action of the first elastic element 230, the upper part of the swing member 220 automatically returns to its rightward position.

[0041] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the locking member 400 is slidably fitted onto the swing member 220. A limiting part 110 is provided on the base 100, which can be a boss-shaped arrangement on the base 100. There is a gap between the rear part of the swing member 220 and the limiting part 110, forming a limiting gap 120. When the swing member 220 swings in the direction of disengaging from the rotating member 300, the limiting gap 120 decreases; correspondingly, when the swing member 220 swings in the direction of engaging with the rotating member 300, the limiting gap 120 increases. After the swing member 220 and the rotating member 300 are engaged, the limiting gap 120 is fixed at its current size. In this embodiment, in the direction shown in the figure, the locking member 400 moves relative to the swing member 220 in the front-back direction, and the limiting part 110 is located on the right rear side of the swing member 220. After the swing member 220 and the rotating member 300 are engaged, as shown... Figure 6As shown, when the locking member 400 moves backward to the first position, the rear part of the locking member 400 extends into the limiting gap 120, and the rear part of the locking member 400 abuts against the limiting part 110. The locking member 400 restricts the limiting gap 120 from becoming smaller, thereby restricting the rear part of the swing member 220 from swinging to the right, and further restricting the front part of the swing member 220 from disengaging from the rotating member 300 to the left. Figure 5 As shown, when the locking member 400 moves forward to the second position, the locking member 400 disengages from the limiting gap 120, releasing its restraining effect on the swing member 220, allowing the swing member 220 to swing normally. Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the lock 400 has a sliding groove 410 that extends back and forth along the direction of movement of the lock 400 relative to the swing member 220. The swing member 220 is swayably mounted on the base 100 via a first rotating shaft 240, which passes through the sliding groove 410. The sliding groove 410 serves two purposes: firstly, it avoids interference between the lock 400 and the first rotating shaft 240; secondly, the cooperation between the sliding groove 410 and the first rotating shaft 240 guides the sliding of the lock 400.

[0042] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the lock 400 has a slot 420 with a gradually changing width. The slot 420 extends back and forth along the direction of movement of the lock 400 relative to the swing member 220. In the direction shown in the figure, the slot 420 is a V-shaped groove that gradually narrows from front to back. The swing member 220 has a plug-in part 221, which can be configured as a V-shaped protrusion structure. When the lock 400 moves to the first position, the plug-in part 221 moves from the wider end (front end) of the slot 420 to the narrower end (rear end). When it moves to the first position, the plug-in part 221 engages in the slot 420, thereby positioning the lock 400 relative to the swing member 220.

[0043] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 7As shown, the seat 100 is also provided with a fastener 510 and a second elastic element 520. The fastener 510 can telescopically move relative to the surrounding cavity 101, and the fastener 510 can be a rod structure. In the direction shown in the figure, when the fastener 510 moves forward, it can extend into the surrounding cavity 101, and when the fastener 510 moves backward, it can retract from the surrounding cavity 101. The second elastic element 520 can be a spring or the like, and the second elastic element 520 applies an elastic force to the fastener 510, which drives the fastener 510 to move in the direction of extending into the surrounding cavity 101. After the surrounding cavity 101 is fitted onto the pipe, the fastener 510 abuts against the pipe under the elastic force of the second elastic element 520, thereby positioning the slide at the current relative position of the pipe. Furthermore, a pusher 530 is also installed on the seat 100, and the pusher 530 is oscillatingly mounted on the seat 100 via a second rotating shaft 540. The second pivot 540 is inserted through the fastener 510. When in use, the user can move the pusher 530. When the pusher 530 swings relative to the base 100, it can drive the fastener 510 to move.

[0044] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the slide also includes a socket 600. The socket 600 is rotatably mounted on the base 100 and has a socket 610 into which the shower head can be plugged.
