Description

[0001] The invention relates to a sanitary wall mounting device comprising a wall-mountable rod holder unit, a wall rod which is pivotably held on the rod holder unit about a pivot axis parallel to a rod longitudinal axis, and a sanitary object holding device which is longitudinally displaceably and detachably held on the wall rod.

[0002] A wall mounting device of this type is used to pivot a wall rail on a wall using its rail holder unit and to hold a sanitary object, such as a hand shower, overhead shower or side shower or a soap dispenser, on the wall rail using its sanitary object holding device, e.g. in a shower room or bathroom. In the case of a shower head holder, the wall rail is often also referred to as a shower rail. The sanitary object holding device can be moved along the wall rail. In many applications, the wall rail is held vertically to the wall so that the sanitary object holding device can be moved up and down on the wall rail and is therefore height-adjustable.

[0003] While the wall bar is pivotably mounted in the present case, in most conventional sanitary wall mounting devices, the wall bar is secured to the wall in a rotationally fixed manner, either directly or via a wall-mountable bar support unit. Typical sanitary wall mounting devices of this type are disclosed, for example, in published patent applications DE 102 60 207 A1, WO 2005 / 068731, WO 2010 / 026359 A1, DE 196 49 005 A1, WO 2015 / 081733 A1, EP 2 642 033 A1, and CN 109162321 A.

[0004] In the event of maintenance or cleaning, the wall rail and at least parts of the rail holder unit often have to be dismantled to dismantle the sanitary object holding device, or the sanitary object holding device has to be detached from the wall rail in a relatively complicated manner and with poor accessibility to the corresponding connecting parts.

[0005] A sanitary wall mounting device of the type mentioned above is known from published patent application EP 1 712 688 A2. The wall mounting device therein comprises a lower and an upper wall-mountable wall support element as a rod support unit and associated pivot bearing units, each with a pin element and a pin receptacle, for pivotally holding the wall rod in a manner similar to a door hanger. The wall rod can be hooked into the wall support elements in an installed position. After pivoting out of the installed position, the wall rod is secured against removal from the wall support elements. Further sanitary wall mounting devices with pivotable wall rods are disclosed in published patent applications JP 2008-190122 A and EP 1 505 214 A1.

[0006] The invention is based on the technical problem of providing a sanitary wall mounting device which offers advantages over the above-mentioned prior art, in particular with regard to functionality, structure, ease of use and / or maintenance effort and especially with regard to the assembly and disassembly of the sanitary object holding device on or from the wall rail.

[0007] The invention solves this problem by providing a sanitary wall mounting device with the features of claim 1. Advantageous developments and / or refinements of the invention are specified in the subclaims, the wording of which is hereby incorporated by reference into the description. This includes, in particular, all embodiments of the invention resulting from the combinations of features defined by the references in the subclaims.

[0008] In the sanitary wall mounting device according to the invention, the wall rail has a longitudinal guide groove in which the sanitary object holding device is guided. The wall rail can be pivoted between an operating position and a maintenance position. The operating position of the wall rail can also be referred to as the initial state or zero position. The sanitary object holding device can be guided out of the guide groove for removal, i.e. disassembly, from the wall rail. Conversely, the sanitary object holding device can be mounted on the wall rail by inserting it into the guide groove. Furthermore, a locking mechanism is provided which, in a released state, allows the sanitary object holding device to be guided out when the wall rail is in the maintenance position, and in a blocked state, secures the sanitary object holding device against being guided out of the guide groove when the wall rail is in the operating position.

[0009] The wall mounting device according to the invention offers a simple solution for quickly and easily dismantling the sanitary fixture from the wall rail for maintenance or cleaning. The sanitary fixture can be assembled and disassembled with relatively few steps by simply pivoting the wall rail from the operating position to the maintenance position, without having to remove the wall rail from the rail holder unit. Pivoting the wall rail also facilitates access to the sanitary fixture for assembly / disassembly purposes, if necessary.

[0010] In a fully assembled state of the wall mounting device, the rod holders are preferably permanently mounted to a wall, such as a wall of a bathroom or shower room. In a functionally and structurally advantageous embodiment, the maintenance position of the wall rod is pivoted, for example, by 60° or more, in particular by substantially 90°, relative to the zero position of the wall rod. The wall mounting device can preferably be designed such that the pivoting of the wall rod is limited to a specific angular range, e.g., to an angular range between 0° and 90°, or between 0° and 180°, or between 0° and 270°. In extreme cases, the wall rod can also be provided with circumferential pivoting mobility without any angular restriction.

[0011] In a further development of the invention, the rod holder unit has two rod holders that can be wall-mounted at a distance from one another. The wall rod is pivotally mounted with a first of its two end faces on a first of the two rod holders. The sanitary object holding device can preferably be guided out at a front end region of the wall rod facing the first rod holder. This represents a structurally and functionally advantageous implementation for guiding the sanitary object holding device out of the guide groove. In a functionally and structurally advantageous embodiment, the wall rod is pivotally mounted with its two end faces between the two rod holders, so that the wall rod has a length that approximately corresponds to the distance between the two rod holders. In alternative embodiments, the rod holder unit can have only one or more than two wall-mountable rod holders.

[0012] In one embodiment of the invention, the guide groove has an outlet opening for guiding the sanitary object holding device out of the guide groove at least on an end region of the wall rail facing the first rail holder. This also represents a structurally and functionally advantageous implementation for guiding the sanitary object holding device out of the guide groove. In a functionally and structurally advantageous embodiment, the guide groove extends to an end face of the wall rail facing the first rail holder, such that the sanitary object holding device can be removed from the wall rail at this end face. Particularly advantageously, the guide groove can extend continuously to both end faces of the wall rail. This enables the sanitary object holding device to be displaced longitudinally over essentially the entire length of the wall rail, and also allows the sanitary object holding device to be removed from both end faces of the wall rail if necessary.Alternatively, the outlet opening can be formed on a radial circumferential side in the front end area of ​​the wall rail. In alternative embodiments, the outlet opening for guiding the sanitary object holder out of the guide groove can be formed in a central area of ​​the wall rail between the two rail holders.

[0013] In a further development of the invention, the securing mechanism comprises an end stop body which, when the securing mechanism is in the blocked state, is releasably inserted into the guide groove and limits the longitudinal displacement of the sanitary object holding device in the guide groove. Furthermore, the end stop body is accessible for removal from the guide groove when the wall rail is in the maintenance position. The end stop body not only limits the longitudinal displacement of the sanitary object holding device in the guide groove, but preferably also prevents the sanitary object holding device from being removed from the guide groove. This means that even when the wall rail is pivoted from the operating position to the maintenance position, the securing mechanism remains in the blocked state due to the inserted end stop body, and the sanitary object holding device cannot be removed from the wall rail.The sanitary object holding device can only be guided out of the guide groove once the end stop body has been loosened and removed from the guide groove. The end stop body can be guided out of the guide groove in a similar way to the sanitary object holding device. Depending on the implementation, it can be provided that the end stop body can only be guided out of the guide groove when the wall rod is in the maintenance position or also when the wall rod is in the operating position. An advantage of this embodiment can be that the wall mounting device continues to secure the sanitary object holding device against removal from the wall rod in a position pivoted relative to the zero position of the wall rod, in particular in the maintenance position, and thus enables normal operation even in this position.

[0014] In an alternative development of the invention, the securing mechanism comprises a blocking region of the rod holder unit, which releases the guide groove for guiding out the sanitary object holding device when the wall rod is in the maintenance position, and blocks the guide groove against guiding out the sanitary object holding device when the wall rod is in the operating position. In this case, the rod holder unit can function as a type of end stop, wherein the securing mechanism is in the blocked state in a pivoted position of the wall rod that differs from the maintenance position and secures the sanitary object holding device against being guided out of the guide groove. The blocking region of the rod holder unit is preferably formed by a side of the rod holder unit facing the wall rod.Only when the wall rail reaches the maintenance position does the locking mechanism enter its release state, releasing the guide groove for the sanitary fixture to be removed. One advantage of this design is that the sanitary fixture can be removed from the wall rail without the need for tools simply by pivoting the wall rail into the maintenance position.

[0015] In a further development of the invention, the wall bar has a substantially polygonal cross-section. This represents a structurally and functionally advantageous implementation of the wall bar, particularly its pivotability between the operating position and the maintenance position. A rectangular cross-section of the wall bar, for example, can be particularly advantageous. This makes it possible to quickly and easily identify the pivoting position of the wall bar. In alternative designs, the wall bar can, for example, have a round or oval cross-section.

[0016] In a further development of the invention, the guide groove faces the wall in the operating position of the wall bar. When the wall mounting device is mounted on a wall, the guide groove can preferably face this wall in the operating position. An advantage of this embodiment can be that the guide groove is generally not visible to the user in the operating position.

[0017] In a further development of the invention, the wall rod is held on the rod holder unit via a locking mechanism that provides a plurality of locking positions for the pivoting movement of the wall rod, with the operating position and the maintenance position each forming one of the locking positions. This makes it possible for the wall rod to remain in a desired, predetermined position, in particular the operating position or the maintenance position, depending on the locking position, and thus, in particular, the operating position and the maintenance position can be set in a functionally reliable manner. The locking mechanism secures the pivoting position of the wall rod relative to the rod holder unit in such a way that the wall rod can only leave this pivoting position by exerting a required disengagement force.This prevents the wall bar from being accidentally pivoted out of the relevant pivot position, but allows the user, if necessary, to pivot the wall bar relative to the bar holder unit while overcoming the disengagement force, for example to pivot the wall bar from the operating position to the maintenance position or vice versa.

[0018] In a functionally and structurally advantageous embodiment, the locking mechanism has more than two locking positions. The locking mechanism preferably has at least one further locking position between the operating position and the maintenance position of the wall rod. This can preferably be an additional operating and / or maintenance position of the wall rod. In alternative embodiments, a locking mechanism is omitted for the pivoting position of the wall rod relative to the rod holder unit. Instead, a position-securing clamp can be provided, for example, by means of which the wall rod is releasably clamped in its respective pivoting position relative to the rod holder unit. The latter can enable continuous adjustment of the pivoting position of the wall rod if required.

[0019] In a further development of the invention, the sanitary fixture holder comprises a slide slidably arranged in the guide groove and a holding body connected to the slide for receiving a sanitary fixture. This represents a structurally and functionally advantageous implementation of the sanitary fixture holder. The holding body is preferably detachably connected to the slide. This makes it possible to replace the holding body depending on the intended sanitary fixture without having to remove the slide from the wall rail. In alternative designs, the slide and the holding body are formed as a single piece.

[0020] In one embodiment of the invention, the guide groove has a groove cross-section that includes at least two transversely spaced guide grooves on one of two opposite groove sides and at least one guide groove on the other groove side. The carriage has guide members engaging in the guide grooves on two opposite carriage sides, said guide members having a contour corresponding to a contour of the guide grooves, wherein the guide members slide or roll along the guide grooves. This represents a structurally and functionally advantageous implementation of the guide characteristic between the carriage and the guide groove. In a functionally and structurally advantageous embodiment, the guide grooves and the guide members have a rounded, in particular semicircular, contour. In alternative embodiments, the guide groove has essentially flat surfaces or groove sides, or only one guide groove.

[0021] In a further development of the invention, the sanitary object holding device has an adjustable braking device comprising a brake shoe element that can be pressed against the guide groove with an adjustable pressure force. This enables the sanitary object holding device to be held reliably and easily to the wall rail to which it is mounted. A further advantage of this embodiment can be that by adjusting the pressure force of the brake shoe element, the braking effect of the braking device can be set or adjusted such that, on the one hand, the adjustment movement for the sanitary object holding device is not too stiff for the user and, on the other hand, unintentional displacement of the sanitary object holding device in the guide groove can be avoided. In alternative embodiments, the braking device engages an outer side of the wall rail.Depending on the requirements and application, the braking effect of the braking device in the guide groove can be provided or at least supported by a positive and / or non-positive interaction of corresponding braking contact surfaces on the brake shoe element on the one hand and the guide groove on the other hand.

[0022] An advantageous embodiment of the invention is illustrated in the drawings. These and other embodiments of the invention are explained in more detail below. In the drawings: Fig. 1A in a perspective view of a sanitary wall mounting device with wall bar in an operating position and a sanitary object holding device, Fig. 1B the perspective view of Fig. 1A with the wall bar in a maintenance position, Fig. 2A to 2C each show a perspective detail to illustrate successive steps for removing the sanitary object holding device from the wall bar of the wall mounting device of Fig. 1B , Fig. 3 a top view of the wall mounting device of Fig. 1B , Fig. 4 a section of Fig. 3 without the sanitary object holding device, Fig. 5 a sectional view along a line VV of Fig. 4 , Fig. 6 a sectional view along a line VI-VI of Fig. 5 and Fig. 7 in perspective detail view of the sanitary object holding device.

[0023] As illustrated in the figures using an exemplary embodiment, the wall mounting device according to the invention comprises a wall-mountable rod holder unit 1, a wall rod 2, and a sanitary object holder device 3. The rod holder unit 1 is designed for mounting on a wall 25, e.g., of a bathroom or a shower room. In a fully assembled state of the wall mounting device, the rod holder unit 1 is fixedly, ie, immovably, mounted on the wall 25.

[0024] The wall rod 2 is pivotally mounted on the rod holder unit 1 about a pivot axis SA parallel to a rod longitudinal axis LA. In the embodiment shown, the wall rod 2 is mounted vertically on the wall 25, as shown in particular in the Fig. 1A und 1B can be seen. In alternative embodiments, the wall bar 2 can be mounted horizontally or in a different orientation on the wall 25. The wall bar 2 has a longitudinal guide groove 4 in which the sanitary object holding device 3 is guided. In the embodiment shown, the guide groove 4 runs continuously over the entire length L of the wall bar 2, as shown in the Fig. 1B The wall bar 2 can be adjusted between an operating position, in the example shown the position in Fig. 1A , and a maintenance position, in the example shown the position in Fig. 1B , pivotable. The operating position of the wall rod 2 in a non-pivoted initial state can also be referred to as the zero position.

[0025] The sanitary object holding device 3 is mounted on the wall bar 2 in a longitudinally displaceable and removable manner. In the embodiment shown, the sanitary object holding device 3 at least partially encompasses the wall bar 2, as shown in particular in the Fig. 1B The sanitary object holder 3 can be removed from the wall rail and guided out of the guide groove.

[0026] The wall mounting device according to the invention further comprises a securing mechanism 5, which in a release state allows the sanitary object holding device 3 to be removed when the wall bar 2 is in the maintenance position, and in a blocking state secures the sanitary object holding device 3 against being removed from the guide groove 4 when the wall bar 2 is in the operating position. In the illustrated embodiment, the maintenance position of the wall bar 2 is pivoted by 90° to the zero position of the wall bar 2, as shown in the Fig. 1A und 1B can be seen. The wall mounting device can be designed such that the pivoting of the wall rod 2 is limited to an angular range, or angular range for short, between 0° and 90°. Alternatively, the angular range can be selected to be as small or large as required, e.g., less than 80° or up to 180° or 270°, depending on the requirements or application of the wall mounting device. In extreme cases, the wall rod can also be provided with circumferential pivoting mobility without angular restriction.

[0027] In an advantageous implementation, the rod holder unit 1 comprises two rod holders 6, 7 which can be wall-mounted at a distance A from each other, as shown in the Fig. 1A und 1B can be seen. The wall rod 2 is pivotally mounted with a first end face 8 on a first of the two rod holders 6. For this purpose, the rod holder 6 has a bearing pin 33 which is rotatably received in a recess 34 on the end face 8 of the wall rod 2, as shown in Fig. 5 In the embodiment shown, the wall bar 2 is pivotally mounted with its first end face 8 and a second end face 26 between the two bar holders 6, 7, as shown in Fig. 1B is evident. In this case, the length L of the wall rod 2 corresponds approximately to the distance A between the rod holders 6, 7.

[0028] In a structurally advantageous embodiment, as in the example shown, the guide groove 4 has a lead-out opening 10 for leading out the sanitary object holding device 3 at least on an end region 9 of the wall rail 2 facing the first rail holder 6. In the present case, the guide groove 4 extends to the first end face 8 of the wall rail 2 facing the first rail holder 6, so that the wall rail 2 has the lead-out opening 10 on this end face 8, from which the sanitary object holding device 3 can be led out. In the embodiment shown, as already mentioned, the guide groove 4 runs from the first end face 8 to the second end face 26 of the wall rail 2. This allows, on the one hand, longitudinal displacement of the sanitary object holding device 3 over the entire length L of the wall rail 2 and, on the other hand, lead-out of the sanitary object holding device 3 on both end faces 8, 26 of the wall rail 2.Alternatively, the outlet opening 10 on the side 27 of the wall bar 2 at which the guide groove 4 opens with its groove opening can be formed in the front end region 9 of the wall bar 2 as a corresponding widening or expansion of the groove opening.

[0029] In alternative embodiments, the outlet opening 10 for leading out the sanitary object holding device 3 can be formed in a central region of the wall rod 2 between the two rod holders 6, 7.

[0030] In advantageous embodiments, as in the example shown, the securing mechanism 5 has an end stop body 11 which is releasably inserted into the guide groove 4 in the blocking state of the securing mechanism 5. In the present case, the end stop body 11 is inserted into the guide groove 4 in the front end region 9 of the wall rod 2, as in Fig. 1B The end stop body 11 can be clamped in the guide groove 4, for example, by means of a grub screw 28, as is the case in the example shown. The end stop body 11 limits the longitudinal displacement of the sanitary object holding device 3 in the guide groove 4 in at least one direction.

[0031] In a more specific implementation, the securing mechanism 5 comprises a further, preferably identically constructed end stop body 29. In the embodiment shown, the further end stop body 29 is inserted into the guide groove 4 in a front end region 30 of the wall bar 2 facing away from the front end region 9, as shown in Fig. 1B can be seen. As a result, the longitudinal displacement of the sanitary object holding device 3 in the guide groove 4 is limited in both directions. The end stop bodies 11, 29 not only limit the longitudinal displacement of the sanitary object holding device 3, but also prevent the sanitary object holding device 3 from being guided out of the guide groove 4. Thus, even when the wall rod 2 is pivoted from the operating position into the maintenance position, the locking mechanism 5 remains in the blocked state due to the inserted end stop bodies 11, 29. In this state, the sanitary object holding device 3 cannot be removed from the wall rod 2, as shown in Fig. 1B can be seen. Only by loosening and removing at least one of the two end stop bodies 11, 29 from the guide groove 4 can the sanitary object holding device 3 be guided out of the guide groove 4. The locking mechanism 5 is then in a release state. In the example shown, the end stop bodies 11, 29 can be guided out on the corresponding end face 8, 26 of the wall rod 2. The end stop bodies 11, 29 are accessible for removal from the guide groove 4 when the wall rod 2 is in the maintenance position.

[0032] In another advantageous embodiment, the securing mechanism 5 comprises a blocking region 12 of the rod holder unit 1, which releases the guide groove 4 for the removal of the sanitary object holding device 3 when the wall rod 2 is in the maintenance position, and blocks the guide groove 4 against the removal of the sanitary object holding device 3 when the wall rod 2 is in the operating position. In contrast to the example shown, in this embodiment, the wall mounting device does not have end stop bodies 11, 29; instead, the rod holder unit 1 functions as a type of end stop. The securing mechanism 5 is in the blocked state in a pivoted position of the wall rod 2 that differs from the maintenance position and secures the sanitary object holding device 3 against being removed from the guide groove 4.In this case, the sanitary object holding device 3 strikes against the blocking area 12 of the rod holder unit 1, wherein the blocking area 12 is preferably formed by a side 31 of the rod holder unit 1 facing the wall rod 2, as shown in particular in . Fig. 2A is visible. When the maintenance position of the wall rail 2 is reached, the locking mechanism 5 is in the release state and releases the guide groove 4 for the removal of the sanitary object holding device 3. This makes it possible for the sanitary object holding device 3 to be removed from the wall rail 2 without tools simply by pivoting the wall rail 2 into the maintenance position.

[0033] In advantageous embodiments, the wall bar 2 has a substantially polygonal cross-section, as is particularly the case in Fig. 6 can be seen. In the present case, the wall bar 2 has a rectangular cross-section. In alternative embodiments, the wall bar 2 can, for example, have a triangular, more than square, or a round or oval cross-section.

[0034] In a structurally advantageous embodiment, the guide groove 4 is facing the wall in the operating position of the wall bar 2. In the embodiment shown, the guide groove 4 is facing the wall 25 in the operating position of the wall bar 2, as shown in Fig. 1A is evident.

[0035] In an advantageous implementation, the wall rod 2 is held on the rod holder unit 1 via a locking mechanism 13. The locking mechanism 13 provides a plurality of locking positions for the pivoting movement of the wall rod 2, wherein the operating position and the maintenance position each form one of the locking positions. This allows the wall rod 2 to remain in the set position as a stable pivoting position, depending on the locking position. In the embodiment shown, the locking mechanism 13 has more than two locking positions, as shown in Fig. 6 can be seen. In the present case, between a first locking position, which corresponds to the operating position of the wall rail 2, and a second locking position when the wall rail 2 is pivoted by 90° into the maintenance position, further locking positions are provided, in particular a further locking position when the wall rail 2 is pivoted by 30° or 60°. The further locking positions can represent additional operating positions in addition to the aforementioned operating position, which enable a user to quickly and easily change or adapt the orientation or spatial position of the sanitary object holding device 3 and thus of a sanitary object held therein, e.g. a hand-held, overhead or side shower or a soap dish. In the example shown, for this purpose, aA grooved profile 35 is provided, with which corresponding profiles of a locking unit 36 ​​accommodated in the recess 34 of the wall bar 2 interact, as shown in . Fig. 6 can be seen. The locking unit 36 ​​preferably comprises a flexible material so that it can elastically yield radially outward upon rotation relative to the bearing pin 33. For this purpose, the locking unit 36 ​​can, for example, consist of several parts arranged successively in the circumferential direction around the bearing pin 33, which are connected to one another as a single piece or are held separately in the recess 34 of the wall rod 2.

[0036] In advantageous embodiments, as in the example shown, the sanitary object holding device 3 has a slide 14 displaceably arranged in the guide groove 4 and a holding body 15 connected to the slide for receiving a sanitary object, as in Fig. 3 can be seen. In the illustrated embodiment, the holding body 15 is detachably connected to the carriage 14. This makes it possible to replace the holding body 15 very easily by removing it from the carriage, depending on the intended sanitary object or during maintenance. In the present case, the holding body 15 is intended to hold a hand shower (not shown in the figures) on the wall rail 2 and, for this purpose, has a fundamentally known structure. In alternative embodiments, the carriage 14 and the holding body 15 are formed as a single piece.

[0037] In an advantageous implementation, the guide groove 4 has a groove cross-section which comprises at least two transversely spaced guide grooves 18, 19 on one of two opposite groove sides 16 and at least one guide groove 20 on the other groove side 17, as shown in the Fig. 4 and 6 In the embodiment shown, according to the Fig. 3 and7 The carriage 14 has, on two opposite carriage sides 21, 22, guide members 18', 19', 20' engaging in the guide grooves 18, 19, 20, with a contour corresponding to a contour of the guide grooves 18, 19, 20, wherein the guide members 18', 19', 20' slide or roll along the guide grooves 18, 19, 20. In the present case, the guide grooves 18, 19, 20 and the guide members 18', 19', 20' have a semicircular contour. The guide members 18', 19', 20' are preferably arranged in the form of hemispheres, fixed or rotatably on the carriage sides 21, 22, so that the guide members 18', 19', 20' can slide or roll along the associated guide grooves 18, 19, 20, as in Fig. 7 can be seen. For this purpose, in the example shown, the carriage has two spaced-apart guide members 18', 19', 20' for each guide groove 18, 19, 20. In alternative embodiments, the guide groove 4 has essentially flat surfaces or groove sides, or only one guide groove, or at least two guide grooves on both opposite groove sides.

[0038] In a structurally and functionally advantageous embodiment, the sanitary object holding device 3 has an adjustable braking device 23, which comprises a brake shoe element 24 that can be pressed against the guide groove 4 with an adjustable pressure force. For this purpose, in the embodiment shown, the braking device 23 has an adjusting element 32, e.g. a screw, via which the pressure force can be adjusted, as in Fig. 1BThis allows a user to adjust the braking effect of the braking device 23 as needed by actuating the adjusting element 32 accordingly. Depending on the requirements and application, the braking effect of the braking device 23 in the guide groove 4 can be provided or at least supported by a positive and / or non-positive interaction of corresponding braking contact surfaces on the brake shoe element 24, on the one hand, and the guide groove 4, on the other. In alternative embodiments, the braking device 23 engages the radial circumferential side 27 of the wall rod 2.

[0039] As the illustrated and other embodiments mentioned above make clear, the invention provides a sanitary wall mounting device that offers advantages over conventional wall mounting devices, particularly with regard to functionality, structure, ease of use, and / or maintenance effort. The wall mounting device according to the invention offers a simple solution for quickly and easily dismantling the sanitary object holding device 3 from the wall rail 2 for maintenance or cleaning. The assembly and disassembly of the sanitary object holding device 3 can be achieved by simply pivoting the wall rail 2 from the operating position to the maintenance position with comparatively few manual steps, without having to remove the wall rail 2 from the rail holder unit 1 or having to remove the rail holder unit from the wall.
