It is tightened by a spring 6 at the lower end of and is adjusted to stop at an arbitrary height position. A head support part 6 is fixed to the upper end of the head support tube 4, and the lower part of the shower head 7 fits into the head support part 6, and is detachable. A flexible hose 8 is connected to the shower head 7, and the tip of the hose 8 is inserted through the head support pipe →, and the base is connected to a hot water supply pipe 9. Note that a shower hook 10 is fixed above the wall recess 2.

In the above configuration, when using the shower for bathing, hair washing, etc., and when changing the height position of the shower outlet depending on the sitting height of the user, grasp the head support tube 6 at the upper end of the head support tube 4. When the head support tube 4 is moved up and down by the spring 6 of the hose support tube 3, the
, and the shower head 7 stops at that position.

Note that the adjustment length is within the range of the difference in length between the hose support tube 3 and the head support tube 4.

Also, when cleaning the bathtub or taking a shower while standing, hold the shower head 7 with your hand.
Pull out the shower base 8 and use it. When the shower head 7 is fixed in the pulled out state, it is hung on the upper shower hook 10. After use, the shower hose 8 is stored while sliding inside the head support tube 4, and the shower head 7 is stored in the head support part 6.

As described above, according to this embodiment, the shower head 7 is structured to be able to move up and down, and the hose 8 connecting the shower head 7 and the hot water supply pipe connection port is inserted through the support pipe 4.
Since the shower can be pulled out only when necessary, it can be set to the optimal height according to the user's sitting height, and the hose is stored in the support tube when the shower is not in use, giving it an excellent appearance. .
