Abstract

A simplified removable attachment-type shower unit is provided, in which a snap hook connection ring connected to a snap hook absorption plate formed in a snap hook is combined with the shower unit, so that the shower unit can be removably attached on a tile or mirror in a bathroom. Since the snap hook absorption plate formed in the snap hook is combined with the shower unit, the shower unit can be attached to any smooth surface. Accordingly, conventional inconveniences of an existing fixed-type shower unit hanger which has the difficulty in removing it once the hanger is attached on a wall can be solved. Thus, the removable attachment-type shower unit does not need such a conventional fixed-type shower unit hanger, and easily solves inconveniences caused by the height of a user or a directional shift of the shower unit.

Description

REMOVABLE ATTACHMENT-TYPE SHOWER UNIT

Technical Field The present invention relates to a removable attachment-type shower unit, and more particularly to, a removable attachment-type shower unit combined with a snap hook, to thereby easily and firmly be removed and attached on a tiled wall or mirror in a bathroom.

Background Art In general, each shower unit which is used in a bathroom is hung up on a shower hanger which is fixed at a tiled wall or a certain place in a bathroom. Thus, when a user showers, his or her body is directed to a shower unit which is fixed at a certain height and direction. Also, a shower unit is placed at a different height based on the height of an ordinary grown-up. As a result, in the case that a bathroom where a shower unit is installed is narrow, it is difficult to install the shower unit, or users are small persons such as children, it is difficult to use the shower unit conveniently. Also, once a shower unit is fixed, it is difficult to move it. Accordingly, when a user wishes to shower in a sit position, or change a water spraying direction, he or she should take the shower unit with one hand and wash the body. Also, tiled walls should be damaged in order to fix a shower unit hanger on a tiled wall or a certain place in a bathroom. Disclosure of the Invention To solve the above problems, it is an object of the present invention to provide a removable attachment-type shower unit with which a snap hook is combined so that the shower unit is easily removed from a shower hanger and attached at a desired position such as a tiled wall, a mirror or a glass door at any time, to thereby eradicate inconveniences of a limited place or a small person and provide users who take a shower with conveniences. To accomplish the above object of the present invention, according to the present invention, there is provided a removable attachment-type shower unit in which a snap hook 8 is connected to a shower unit 6 having a connection ring 10, to thus removably attach the shower unit

6 on his or her desired place to use it.

Brief Description of the Drawings The above and other objects and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent by describing the preferred embodiment thereof in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings in which: FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a conventional fixed-type shower unit hanger and shower unit; FIG .2 is a perspective view of a removable attachment-type shower unit using a snap hook according to the present invention; and FIG. 3 is an overall perspective view and a partial cross-sectional view of the /removable attachment-type shower unit according to the present invention.

Best Mode for Carrying out the Invention Hereinbelow, a removable attachment-type shower unit according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings . The like or same elements are assigned the like or same reference numerals all over the drawings, for convenience of explanation. FIG .2 is a perspective view of a removable attachment-type shower unit6 combined with a snap hook 8 according to the present invention. The shower unit 6 is combined with a ring 10 to which a snap hook 8 having a strong adsorption performance is connected. That is, as shown in FIG. 3, a snap hook connection ring 10 to or from which a snap hook 8 added with a stainless steel ring is connected or disconnected, is fitted with the body of the shower unit 6. Although the snap hook connection ring 10 plays an important role of connecting or disconnecting the snap hook 8 therewith or therefrom, it plays an important role of shifting the shower unit 6 to the left and right when the shower unit 6 is attached on a tiled wall or a mirror in a bathroom. That is, since a minute space is formed between the snap hook connection ring 10 and the shower unit 6, the direction of the shower unit 6 can be freely changed. Also, as shown in FIG. 3, the body portion of the shower unit 6 which is fitted with the snap hook connection ring 10 is dug inside and circumferentially as thick and wide as the snap hook connection ring 10. Also, the portion where the shower unit 6 and the snap hook connection ring 10 are combined is cylindrically formed from a shower unit connection ring 2 where a hose 14 is connected, in order to move smoothly. Also, since the snap hook connection ring 10 and the snap hook

8 are separated from each other, the snap hook whose attachment capability is lowered can be replaced by a new one. Therefore, it is preferable that several snap hooks 8 each being added with a stainless steel ring are provided together with the shower unit 6. Also, since an existing snap hook is easily attached on a wall but is not easily detached from the wall, a portion of a snap hook adsorption plate 16 is protruded as shown in FIG. 3 so that the snap hook adsorption plate 16 can be easily detached from the wall. Thus, the shower unit 6 can be firmly attached on a desired place by using the snap hook 8 without having a fixed-type shower unit hanger 12. The removable attachment-type shower unit using the snap hook is not only applied to a tiled wall in a bathroom but also applied to any place formed of a smooth material such as a mirror or glass door . Industrial Applicability As described above, the present invention provides a removable attachment-type shower unit in which a ring connected with a snap hook 8 is connected with the shower unit 6. Accordingly, the present invention solves the conventional problems that tiles in a bathroom is damaged in order to bore a bolt hole when a fixed-type shower unit hanger 12 is attached on a wall, it is difficult to install a shower unit because of a large-sized mirror in a bathroom, a user takes a shower unit with one hand because of narrowness of a bathroom and inconveniences of the height of the user, and water is splashed toward articles which should not be soaked. The removable attachment-type shower unit according to the present invention can be attached on a tiled wall, a mirror, or glass door, in a narrow bathroom.

Claims
