This application claims priority to Chinese patent application number 202010186266.5, filed Mar. 17, 2020. Chinese patent application 202010186266.5 is incorporated herein by reference.
The present disclosure relates to kitchen parts and bathroom parts, and in particular relates to a wall mount bracket device configured to remove a hanging device in multiple directions.
Existing wall mount bracket devices, such as hand-held shower wall mount bracket devices, comprise a wall mount bracket and a hand-held shower, and the wall mount bracket is secured to the wall. The wall mount bracket comprises an insertion hole that penetrates up and down, and the insertion hole comprises an opening that penetrates both in and out and up and down. An inner wall of the insertion hole narrows from top to bottom, and the hand-held shower is detachably disposed in the insertion hole. The hand-held shower can be locked and positioned by its own weight due to the narrowing layout. The hand-held shower is locked by its own weight, and the hand-held shower can be only upwardly removed. Since the hand-held shower can be only removed in one direction, inconvenience is brought to the user.
The present disclosure provides a wall mount bracket device in which a hanging device is configured to be removed in multiple directions, which overcomes the deficiencies of the wall mount bracket device in the background.
In order to solve the aforementioned technical problems, a technical solution of the present disclosure is as follows.

The hanging groove 11 is penetrated up and down (i.e., in a vertical direction) and is disposed on the wall mount bracket 1. The hanging groove 11 comprises a positioning groove 111 and an opening 112 configured to be in communication with the positioning groove 111 and face forward. The positioning groove 111 and the opening 112 cooperate to define a structure having a small entry and a big body, and a diameter of the small entry is smaller than a diameter of the big body. A portion of the opening 112 is disposed with an enlarged opening 113 disposed above one or more positioning mechanisms 12.
The one or more positioning mechanisms 12 comprise one or more positioning members 121 and one or more elastic bodies 122. The one or more positioning members 121 are configured to move between an extended position disposed in the hanging groove 11 and a retracted position that retract the extending relative to the wall mount bracket 1. The one or more elastic bodies 122 abut the one or more positioning members 121 to enable the one or more positioning members 121 to be disposed in the hanging groove 11 due to an elastic force of the one or more elastic bodies 122. When the one or more positioning members 121 are in the extended position, the one or more positioning members 121 are in a positioned state. When the one or more positioning members 121 are in the retracted position, the one or more positioning members 121 are in a relief state. In this embodiment, the one or more positioning members 121 are configured to be slidably connected to the wall mount bracket 1 back and forth. The one or more positioning members 121, when disposed in the extended position, pass through a bottom of the positioning groove 111 in a forward direction to be disposed in the positioning groove 111. Two positioning mechanisms 12 of the one or more positioning mechanisms are disposed in the wall mount bracket 1, and the two positioning mechanisms 12 are disposed left and right (i.e., in a lateral direction) and separated from each other. In some embodiments, the wall mount bracket 1 comprises a wall mount bracket body 13 and a wall mount bracket outer cover 14. The wall mount bracket outer cover 14 is secured to the wall mount bracket body 13, and the securing is, for example, securing by a screw. The wall mount bracket outer cover 14 comprises the hanging groove 11, and the wall mount bracket outer cover 14 comprises one or more mounting holes 141 penetrating the wall mount bracket outer cover 14 in the forward direction and a rearward direction. The one or more positioning members 121 are slidably connected to inner sides of the one or more mounting holes 141, and the one or more elastic bodies 122 are disposed in the one or more mounting holes 141. The one or more elastic bodies 122 are, for example, springs, and the one or more elastic bodies 122 are disposed in the one or more mounting holes 141. First ends of the one or more springs abut concave grooves of rear surfaces of the one or more positioning members 121, and second ends of the one or more springs abut the wall mount bracket body 13. The wall mount bracket body 13 is secured to a wall through a ball head 15 and a screw nut 16. As required, the wall mount bracket 1 can be disposed with a water inlet passage configured to be in communication with a water source, and the hand-held shower 20 is in communication with the water inlet passage through a hose.
A rear surface of the hanging device 2 protrudes to define the hanging portion 21. The hanging portion 21 comprises a head portion 211 and a neck portion 212 secured to the head portion 211 and the rear surface of the hanging device 2. The head portion 211 cooperates with and is connected to the positioning groove 111. The neck portion 212 cooperates with and is connected to the opening 112, and the hanging portion 21 cooperates with the hanging groove 11 to move up and down along the hanging groove 11. The hanging portion 21 is slidably disposed in the hanging groove 11, and the one or more positioning members 121, when disposed in the extended position, are configured to support the head portion 211 to enable the hanging device 2 to be positioned on the wall mount bracket 1 (i.e., prevent the hand-held shower 20 from falling downward under a weight of the hanging device). The hanging device 2 comprises a shower body 22 and a water outlet cover 23 configured to be assembled to the shower body 22, and water spray can be switched through the water outlet cover 23. A rear side of the shower body 22 is secured to a connecting portion 220. The connecting portion 220 partially extends out of a rear surface of the shower body 22, and the extended portion of the connecting portion 220 defines the hanging portion 21.
A guiding mechanism 100 is disposed between the hanging portion 21 and the one or more positioning members 121. When the hanging device 2 is downwardly pulled out, the guiding mechanism 100 is configured to abut the one or more positioning members 121 to move from the extended position to the retracted position. After the one or more positioning members 121 are retracted by overcoming the elastic force of the one or more elastic bodies 122, the hanging device 2 is downwardly pulled out, so that the hanging device 2 can be removed even in a downward direction. Moreover, as the head portion 211 cooperates with the hanging groove 11, when other directional forces are applied (that is, except for in an upward direction and the downward direction), two side walls of the hanging groove 11 interact with the hanging portion 21 of the hand-held shower 20 to perform a self-lock function and to prevent the hand-held shower 20 from falling downward due to accidental application force.
At least one of ends of the one or more positioning members 121 or a bottom wall of the head portion 211 is disposed with guiding surfaces 101 or 102, and the guiding mechanism 100 comprises the guiding surface. Ends of the one or more positioning members 121 are ball head ends 123, and ball walls of the ball head ends 123 define first guiding surfaces 101. An outer peripheral wall of the head portion 211 defines an outer rotating wall 213, and the outer rotating wall defines a second guiding surface 102.
In this embodiment, the head portion 211 is configured to be disposed in or separated from the hanging groove 11 through the enlarged opening 113, and a center of the enlarged opening 113 is higher than a center of the head portion 211 supported by the one or more positioning members 121 when the hanging device 2 is disposed the wall mount bracket 1.
The wall mount bracket device of this embodiment functions as follows. After the hand-held shower 20 is disposed on the wall mount bracket 1, the hand-held shower 20 is positioned by the one or more positioning members 121 of the one or more positioning mechanisms 12 to ensure that the hand-held shower 20 is positioned and hung on the wall mount bracket 1. When the hand-held shower 20 is placed, referring to
