Definitions

  • This invention relates to towel holder devices, particularly those suitable for application to a radiator.
  • Known devices comprise a horizontal bar, the ends of which support the means for securely fixing the device to the radiating elements of the radiator.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a towel holder device of universal type, ie which can be adapted to a wide range of radiators of different dimensions or type (for example radiators with circular conduits or with roughly elliptical conduits), is very easy to apply, and is of low cost.
  • the invention attains said object by a towel holder device comprising a horizontal telescopic bar the ends of which are fixed to two opposing, mutually specular profiled brackets, for coupling to the radiating elements of the radiator. Inside the bar there is provided a traction or compression means, but preferably traction, having its ends fixed to said brackets to pull or push the brackets against said two elements of the radiator.
  • FIG 1 shows the towel holder device 1, which comprises a telescopic bar 2 to the ends of which there are fixed two equal brackets 3 and 4 its for fixing it to the radiating elements 5 of the radiator.
  • the telescopic bar 2 is formed with two tubular components (tubes) 20 and 21, of which the tube 21 is of smaller diameter than the tube 20 and is inserted into it. Inside the telescopic bar 2 there is positioned an elastic means such as a tension spring 6 the ends of which are fixed to two rings 7 and 8.
  • Said rings 7 and 8 are fixed by known means to the inner surface of the two outer ends (ie the ends most distant apart) of the tubes 20 and 21 respectively. They also have a threaded central hole 70 and 80 respectively. Specifically, the ring 7 is forced into the outer end of the tube 20, whereas the ring 8 is fixed by a screw 10 to a plate 8' fixed to the outer end of the tube 21.
  • the fixing brackets 3 and 4 have a shaped rear part 30 and 40 respectively which is of arched concave profile and is substantially complementary to the profile of the radiating elements 5 of the radiator, so that it is able to grip these elements.
  • the brackets 3 and 4 are fixed to the ends of the bar 2, for example (as shown in Figures 1-5) by screws 9 and 10, which are screwed respectively into the rings 7 and 8 through the holes 31 and 41 respectively.
  • the spring 6 is mounted inside the telescopic bar 2 prestretched so that it tends to urge the two brackets 3 and 4 towards each other, these having their concavities facing each other.
  • the device is mounted on the radiator very easily and quickly, by simply pulling the two brackets 3 and 4 apart, fitting them about two elements 5 (sufficiently spaced apart) of the radiator, then releasing them onto these. At that point the spring 6 maintains the two brackets pulled with force against the elements 5, this force being sufficient to maintain the device and the radiator rigidly connected together, even when relatively heavy towels etc. are placed on the bar 2.
  • the surface of the concavity defined by the brackets 3 and 4 is covered with a thin layer 45 of elastomeric material, able both to increase adhesion between the brackets and the elements 5, and to prevent scratching of the surface of these latter.
  • a thin guide sleeve to prevent rubbing and scratching on the outer surface of the inner tube 21.
  • Figures 3 and 4 show two different alternative appearances of the brackets 3 and 4.
  • the towel holder device 1 can be provided with optional extras, as shown in Figures 6 and 7, which project from the brackets 3 and 4.
  • FIG 5 shows the towel holder device 1 provided with a support 12 for a toilet roll.
  • Figure 7 shows two clothes hanger pegs 13 and 14 of different shapes applied to the ends of the towel holder device 1.
  • said accessories 12, 13, 14 can be formed by extensions to the tubes 20 and/or 21 projecting outwards from the brackets 3 and 4.
  • a second telescopic bar 2a carried by the brackets 3 and 4, it being substantially equal to the first, but without being provided with an elastic means in its interior.
  • the elastic means 6 can operate under compression instead of under tension.
  • the shape of the rear parts 30 and 40 is reversed with respect to that illustrated.
  • the elastic means can also consist of a means other than a spring, for example an elongate element of elastomeric material, or a so-called gas spring, or other technically equivalent means.
  • the means for pulling/pushing the brackets 3, 4 comprises a screw 81, the head 82 of which abuttingly engages axially against a disc 83 fixed to the outer end of one of the components (for example the outer component 20) of the telescopic bar 3.
  • the final end of the shank 84 of the screw is engaged in a threaded hole provided in an element 85 axially constrained to the other component 21 of the bar.
  • the element 85 is free to slide axially within the tube 21 but without rotating relative to it.
  • it presses against a disc 86 fixed to the inner end of the inner tube 21 by way of an interposed spring 88. In this manner, the element 85 is axially constrained to the tube 21 in a partially elastic manner, to achieve between the device 1 and the radiator elements 5 a fixing which is at least partially elastic.
