Shower head fixture
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current mobile shower heads have limited adjustability, allowing only leftward or rightward adjustment, which does not meet the diverse height requirements of users.
Innovation Solution
A shower head fixture with a fixing assembly and shower assembly, featuring a global head connection mechanism with a semicircular clasp structure, magnetic fixation, and a top spray support for adjustable and stable installation on walls or top spray supports, enabling up and down adjustment and quick detachment.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a seat and handle connection mechanism is used for mobile shower heads, then the shower head can be easily attached and detached, but the adjustment angle is limited to leftward or rightward only
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies a universal joint mechanism that enables dynamic multi-directional adjustment of the shower head. The joint allows the shower head to move freely in multiple directions (up, down, left, right) while maintaining secure attachment, transforming the static single-axis adjustment into a dynamic multi-axis system that adapts to various user needs.
2Adaptability or versatility
If a universal joint mechanism is added to enable multi-directional adjustment, then the adjustment angle is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The universal joint mechanism serves multiple functions simultaneously: it provides multi-directional adjustment, maintains secure attachment, and enables easy repositioning. By integrating these functions into a single joint component rather than separate mechanisms, the patent achieves multi-functionality without proportionally increasing complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The universal joint acts as an intermediary component between the shower head body and the mounting bracket. This intermediate element simplifies the overall design by providing a standardized interface that handles all adjustment movements, reducing the need for multiple separate adjustment mechanisms.

AI summary
A shower head fixture is provided, which relates generally to bath installations and includes a fixing assembly and a shower assembly. The fixing assembly includes a global head seat and a fixing holder, wherein the global head seat is movably provided on the fixing holder through a global head connection mechanism. The global head seat has an embedded portion; the shower assembly has a clasp portion which is fastened to the embedded portion. The shower head fixture can not only be quickly fixed and detached, but be adjusted up and down according to the required height of users.
