Description

[0001] Continuously adjustable rail system with curtain storage position for e.g. a shower, privacy and / or wind protection curtain in the interior of a motorhome, recreational vehicle, trailer or other use. Main claim:

[0002] Continuously adjustable rail system with curtain storage position for e.g. a shower, privacy and / or wind protection curtain in the interior of a mobile home, recreational vehicle, trailer or other use with the aim of the best possible use of available space for attaching the rail system to the interior. State of the art:

[0003] It's well known that spaces in vehicles or trailers are designed to accommodate showers or other sanitary needs. Unfortunately, manufacturers often skimp on a bracket or curtain guard designed to protect the toilet, sink, or even cabinets from splashing water and soap, while also directing shower water directly into the designated drain pan. The problem:

[0004] The wet area of ​​a motorhome, recreational vehicle or caravan varies in terms of internal dimensions depending on the manufacturer and is usually designed to be very space-optimised. If no shower curtain is planned from the start, there are few options for retrofitting one. Due to the lack of a suitable holder for the use of a curtain, shower curtain, privacy screen and / or windbreak, there is a possibility that moisture can penetrate appliances (e.g. (toilet) or unsealed gaps in the room divider during the shower and cause damage. Due to the different vehicle or trailer interior dimensions, there is no standardization of these spaces. This means that there is usually no option for attaching a curtain. This invention solves this problem. The solution:

[0005] The invention of a continuously adjustable rail system allows for optimal use of space for curtain mounting. Furthermore, the existing storage position makes it easy to store the curtain in an organized position, eliminating the need to remove it every time you shower.

Claims

[1] Continuously adjustable rail system with curtain storage position for e.g. a shower, privacy and / or wind protection curtain in the interior of a motorhome, recreational vehicle, trailer, vehicle or other use. [2] Rail system according to claim 1, characterized by : The rail system consists of sections that can be continuously extended to the desired length and width using connecting pieces (expansion options). This allows the rail system to be adapted to the specific conditions in the interior of a wet room or toilet. [3] Rail system according to claim 1, characterized by : that the rail system has a defined plug-in system, whereby it can be continuously adjusted within a defined min. and max. range. [4] Rail system according to claim 1, characterized by : The rail's position can be adjusted to suit the on-site conditions. The mounting method can be selected to utilize existing holes or screw connections. The rail is then typically attached on two opposite sides. This is usually sufficient. However, attachment on all four sides is possible. The number of attachment points can also be freely selected. [5] Rail system according to claim 1, characterized by : The rail system is equipped with a curtain storage position. The shower curtain, privacy curtain, and / or windbreak curtain hangs in this position after use, thus saving space. Thanks to its design, this curtain storage position can be adjusted to the most suitable position by simply rotating the rail system. [6] Rail system according to claim 1, characterized by : that the rail system is made of profile, which results in weight savings. [7] Rail system according to claim 1, characterized by : that the rail system can be used permanently or temporarily inside a motorhome, recreational vehicle, trailer, car or other application. [8] Rail system according to claim 1, characterized by : The system can be used with standard curtain fastening options, such as eyelets or roller blinds. [9] Rail system according to claim 1, characterized by : Depending on the choice of fastening method, the rail system can be glued, screwed or designed as a magnetic holder. [10] Rail system according to claim 1, characterized by : The rail system can be attached to the interior fittings as well as to suitable load-bearing positions inside motorhomes, recreational vehicles, trailers, cars or other uses. [11] Rail system according to claim 1, characterized by : that the curtain is wrapped with Velcro or elastic bands in the storage position so that the shower, privacy and / or wind protection curtain cannot move out of position.
