    For this reason, in the conventional shower head holding structure, when taking a shower, there is a problem that the body must be brought close to the wall surface and take a cramped posture. However, it is difficult for a person who is difficult to take a leaning posture to take a shower while sitting on a chair.

    In addition, in the conventional shower head holding structure, the shower head is held at a certain height and angle by the shower hook, so there is a disadvantage that the shower discharge height and discharge direction cannot be adjusted. There is inconvenience that usability is bad.

    Therefore, the present invention provides a shower head having a held portion on the proximal end side of the main body to which the shower hose is connected and a water discharge portion for discharging hot water supplied by the shower hose on the distal end side of the main body. In the shower head holding structure for holding the shower head on the wall surface of the bathroom, the flexible member having an appropriate rigidity and bendable, the support member for supporting the one end side of the flexible member on the shower hook on the bathroom wall surface, and A holding clip member that holds and holds the held portion of the shower head on the other end side of the flexible member.

    The shower head holder according to the present invention can hold the shower head separated from the wall surface of the bathroom by an appropriate distance, so there is no need to take a tight posture by bringing the body close to the wall surface when taking a shower. You can take a shower with an easy posture. Moreover, since the shower head holder of this invention can change the height and angle of a shower head arbitrarily by bending a flexible member, it adjusts the water discharge height and water discharge direction of a shower according to a physique. It is possible to improve the feeling of use.

    In the shower head holder of the present invention, one end of a flexible member having moderate rigidity and flexibility is supported by a shower hook on the bathroom wall surface by a support member, and a shower clip member is provided on the other end of the flexible member. By holding and holding the held portion of the head, the shower head can be held at an appropriate distance from the bathroom wall, and the height and angle of the shower head can be held by bending the flexible member. Can be changed arbitrarily.

    Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1, 2 and 3 show the first embodiment. 2 and 3, 5 is a bathroom, 6 is a floor surface, 4 is a wall surface, 7 is a chair, 8 is a person taking a bath, 2 is a shower head, and 24 is a shower hose.
