DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a towel bar whose length can be changed according to the size of a counterpart to be attached.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional towel bar is provided with brackets at both ends of a rod, and is attached to a washstand or the like to which the bar is attached by using the brackets. In the conventional towel bar, the spacing between the brackets at both ends is a fixed size, and various sizes having different bracket spacings are prepared in consideration of the different size of the attachment partner. For example, when a counterpart to be attached is a vanity stand and a towel bar is attached to the front side of a washbasin or a cabinet, the opening dimensions of the vanity stand are 500 mm, 600 mm, and 750 mm. A plurality of types of towel bars are prepared according to the size of the frontage.

[0003]

However, preparing towel bars of various sizes with different bracket intervals increases the manufacturing cost, requires more time for inventory management, and causes an order error. . Therefore, the present invention
In order to solve the above problem, it is an object of the present invention to provide a towel bar capable of adjusting a bracket interval according to a dimension of an attachment partner without using a tool such as cutting.

[0004]

The means adopted by the present invention according to the first aspect of the present invention so that the bracket interval can be adjusted can be covered by inserting a rod and an end of the rod. With left and right brackets with insertion holes,
A towel bar with a bracket, wherein an insertion hole of each bracket has a hole length capable of changing an insertion dimension of the rod, and an interval between left and right brackets can be changed. In order to be able to cope with the opening dimension (500 to 750 mm) of the vanity to be attached, the interval between the left and right brackets may be adjusted by at least 250 mm.

In the present invention, the distance between the left and right brackets can be changed according to the size of the mating partner by changing the insertion dimension of the end of the rod inserted into the insertion hole of each bracket. Further, since the rod is inserted into the insertion holes of the left and right brackets so as to cover the left and right ends, the entire length of the rod along the longitudinal direction is also changed.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, in order to easily prevent movement and rotation of the rod, at least one of the brackets is provided with a screw that connects the vicinity of the entrance of the insertion hole and the rod. The towel bar with a bracket according to claim 1, which is connected. In order to hide the screw, a screw may be provided on the side facing the attachment part of the attachment partner.

In the present invention, at least one of the brackets and the rod are connected to each other with screws, so that the rod can be prevented from moving or rotating. Since the vicinity of the entrance of the insertion hole and the rod are connected with the screw, even if the distance between the left and right brackets is changed, both can be reliably connected with the screw.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, the rod and the insertion hole are curved at the same curvature so as to correspond to the curved attachment portion of the attachment partner. 2 is a towel bar with a bracket according to 2.

In the present invention, by bending the rod and the insertion hole at the same curvature, it is possible to correspond to the curved attachment portion.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A towel bar with a bracket according to the present invention (hereinafter referred to as "the towel bar of the present invention") will be described below based on an embodiment shown in the drawings.

1 and 2 show an embodiment of the towel bar of the present invention. FIG. 1 (A) shows a state in which the towel bar of the present invention is attached to a front side of a basin to be attached. 1B is a perspective view showing a state where left and right brackets and a rod are separated, and FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional plan view.

The towel bar 1 of the present invention comprises a rod 2 for hooking a towel or the like, and left and right brackets 3 and 3 having insertion holes 4 into which the respective ends 2a of the rod 2 can be inserted and covered. Consists of Each bracket 3 has an outer fitting portion 5 provided with an insertion hole 4 and an attaching portion 8 of a washbasin 8 to be attached.
The connection part 7 is connected to an attachment part 6 to be joined to a. The insertion hole 4 of the outer fitting portion 5 has a hole length B that allows the insertion dimension A of the rod 2 to be changed, so that the distance C between the left and right brackets can be changed. The insertion hole 4 of the outer fitting portion 5 has a bottom 4a so that the end face of the rod body 2 fitted outside cannot be seen. The towel bar 1 of the present invention is provided with a space C between the left and right brackets 3, 3 so as to be able to correspond to each frontage dimension (500 mm, 600 mm or 750 mm) of a vanity table (not shown) provided with a washbasin 8. At least 250 mm can be adjusted.

The attachment portion 6 of the bracket 3 is joined to a surface of a basin 8 made of ceramics or synthetic resin by a suction cup or a surface of a cabinet of a vanity table (not shown) by screwing or bonding. It is formed in a shape such as a possible board shape. The rod body 2 is formed in a rod shape from a material such as metal, synthetic resin, or wood.

The towel bar 1 of the present invention has an invisible back side (a side facing the attachment portion 8a of the washbasin 8 to be attached) near the entrance of the insertion hole 4 of each bracket 3 and the rod 2
Are connected by a screw 9. The connection by the screw 9 near the entrance of the insertion hole 4 is based on the distance C between the brackets 3 and 3.
This is to ensure that the screws 9 can be connected even when the maximum is set. The connection by the screw 9 may be performed between at least one of the brackets 3 and the rod 2. The towel bar 1 of the present invention can prevent movement and rotation of the rod 2 in the rod longitudinal direction by connecting the bracket 3 and the rod 2 with the screw 9.

In the towel bar 1 of the present invention, the rod 2 and the insertion hole 4 of each bracket 3 are curved at the same curvature so as to correspond to the curved mounting portion 8a of the washbasin 8 to be mounted. It is. The rod 2 and the insertion hole 4 can of course be formed linearly without being curved.

When attaching the towel bar 1 of the present invention to the basin 8 according to the present embodiment, the towel bar 1 is set so as to correspond to a frontage dimension (500 to 750 mm) of a vanity table (not shown).
With the distance C between the left and right brackets 3,3 adjusted, the brackets 3,3 and the rod 2 are connected with screws 9,9, and a suction cup of the brackets 3,3 is attached to the attachment area 8a of the basin 8. Attach the attachment portions 6 and 6 to complete the attachment. The towel bar 1 of the present invention is inserted into the insertion holes 4 and 4 of the left and right brackets 3 and 3 so as to cover the left and right ends 2a and 2a of the rod 2, so that the rod 2 is cut or the like. The entire length D along the longitudinal direction of the rod 2 can be changed without the need.

[0017]

According to the towel bar of the present invention, by changing the length of the rod inserted into the insertion hole of each bracket, the distance between the left and right brackets can be changed according to the dimensions of the mating partner. In addition, since the overall length can be adjusted, the above-mentioned problem of the conventional towel bar can be solved at once.

In the towel bar according to the second aspect of the present invention, movement and rotation of the rod can be easily prevented by screw connection.

The towel bar according to the third aspect of the present invention can correspond to a curved attachment portion.
