Definitions
- Water is fed to the shower head by means of a flexible hose, and the user generally can grip a handle that is jointly connected to the shower head in order to remove it from the sliding guide and handle it at will.
- the aim of the present invention is to eliminate such drawbacks by providing a bathroom shower set, characterized in that it comprises a panel associated with a vertical sliding guide which is fixed to the wall of the intended space, the panel being adapted to delimit a portion of space that is adjacent to said wall and being capable of accommodating at least partially a flexible hose for conveying water from a connector that protrudes from said wall to the shower head, the panel having an opening that is adapted to allow the passage of said flexible hose and being further provided with a support for the removable resting of the end of the flexible hose that is connected to the handle of the shower head.
- FIGS. 1 and 2 are perspective views of the shower set according to the invention, in two different operating situations
- FIGS. 3 and 4 are perspective views of the shower set arranged at the two end heights of its vertical stroke
- FIG. 5 is an exploded view of some elements of the shower
- FIG. 6 is an enlarged-scale view of a detail of FIG. 5 ;
- FIG. 7 is a sectional view, taken along the line VII-VII of FIG. 5 ;
- FIG. 8 is a perspective view of the shower set according to the present invention in a second embodiment
- FIG. 9 is a view of a detail of FIG. 1 .
- the reference numeral 1 designates a panel associated with a guide 2 that is fixed to a wall 3 of a space intended for the shower set, so that it can slide with respect to said wall.
- the panel 1 has a profile 4 jointly connected thereto, and said profile constitutes the element for connection to the guide 2 with a male-female mating and is provided monolithically with a stiffening strip 4 a.
- the guide 2 has such as a length as to remain always concealed behind the panel 1 along its entire stroke, according to what is shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 .
- the panel 1 is provided, at the upper edge, with a support 5 that allows the removable resting of an end 6 a of a flexible hose 6 that conveys water from a connector 7 , optionally provided with a faucet, which exits from the wall 3 , up to a head 8 with a handle 8 a of the shower set;
- the panel 1 is shaped so as to define a flat face 1 a, designed to be arranged parallel to the wall 3 , and two sides 1 b, 1 c that are extended towards said wall; while the side 1 b skims the wall 3 , the side 1 c is extended to a distance from said wall such as to define an opening that allows the passage of the flexible hose 6 .
- a portion of space is thereby delimited being comprised between the wall 3 and the face 1 a of the panel 1 and being capable of accommodating at least partially the flexible hose 6 , as shown in FIGS. 1 , 3 , 4 ; said flexible hose becomes movable by a user who, by gripping the handle 8 a of the shower head, moves the shower set into a situation such as the one shown in FIG. 2 , utilizing the possibility to pass the flexible hose through the opening provided between the wall 3 and the end of the side 1 c.
- FIG. 7 The method of association between the sliding panel 1 and the fixed guide 2 is shown in FIG. 7 ;
- the guide 2 is provided with at least one and preferably a plurality of disks 9 , which are pushed by a spring 10 into contact with the surface of the profile 4 that is jointly connected to the panel 1 , thereby causing a sliding motion of the panel 1 pushed by the user in calibrated friction conditions which allows the arrangement of said panel in the position in which it is left;
- means 11 for removable locking of the panel in the selected position are provided and comprise a threaded shank that is designed to act on a block which is not shown in the figure and is designed to provide the desired locking by friction.
- a grip handle 12 is provided, which is applied to the face of the panel 1 that is directed towards the wall 3 and is designed to be concealed from sight, and can be gripped by the user with the left hand while he grips the means 11 with the right hand, thereby achieving in optimum conditions for providing the sliding of the panel 1 along the guide 2 .
- the panel 1 has a continuous flat face 1 a, which is adapted to receive decorations of any kind; the embodiment of FIG. 8 illustrates a shower set which comprises a panel 13 that differs from panel 1 only for the presence of an opening 14 provided with a transparent strip for protecting light-emitting bodies arranged behind, and can be provided with a handle that is similar to the handle 12 described previously.
