Description

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a soap basket for holding bar soap, particularly for holding wet soap in a bathroom.

[Technical background of the invention and its problems]

A wet bar of soap is slippery. In the bathroom,
There is a shallow recess formed on the bathroom cabinet or on the convex edge of the bathtub for placing a wet bar of soap. However, the recesses are usually quite shallow to avoid water accumulation, so that wet soap bars still tend to slip out. Soap dishes are commonly used to hold wet bars of soap. Soap dishes usually have drainage holes to allow the soap solution to drain out. However, these drainage holes tend to quickly become clogged with soap sludge, thus causing water to accumulate in the soap dish and constantly soaking the soap.

[Purpose of the invention]

The present invention aims to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks of the prior art and provide a soap basket that can be easily hung on the bathroom wall and can prevent wet soap bars from being soaked in water.

[Summary of the invention]

The present invention comprises a basket, a soap holder, and a hanging plate, and the basket has a grill-like shape formed by a plurality of longitudinal frame members and a plurality of transverse frame members cross-coupled with the longitudinal frame members. It consists of a frame device, a basket collar with a hooking member, and a plurality of mounting lugs at selected locations of said longitudinal or transverse frame member at the bottom of the basket, said soap support being symmetrically a fork arranged in two rows apart from each other, the lower portions of which are connected by a frame structure, and a fork having a mounting hole that engages with the protrusion of the car and a hole in which the vertical or horizontal frame member fits at the lower end; The hanging plate has means for hanging a basket.

The invention also includes a container-like adapter that can be accommodated within the soap holder and can contain water.

[Embodiments of the invention]

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 6.

As shown in FIG. 1, the soap basket of the present invention is
This is a basket assembly including a basket 1, a soap support 2, and a hanging plate 3. As shown in FIG. 2, the car 1 includes a tray-shaped grill-like frame member 11 having a large number of vertical and horizontal frame members 15 and 14 that are spatially arranged and joined at their intersections.
It includes a collar 12 along the upper edge of. A number of installation protrusions 13, 13A are selected on the horizontal frame member at the bottom of the basket 1 so as to correspond to the bottomed installation holes 222, 231 of the soap support 2, which will be described later (FIG. 3). It is provided at various points. One side of the flange 12 is formed into an L shape with a tongue 121 bent downward.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the soap support 2 includes a large number of bar members 22 arranged in two rows spaced apart from each other, each bar member being arranged approximately upright; The first row of bar members is spatially arranged to correspond with the opposite or second row of bar members. The soap supports 2 face each other 2
The interval between the upper ends of the bar members is larger than the interval between the lower ends, making it easy to place one bar of soap immediately between the two rows of bar members 22. Each rod member 22
has a roughly cylindrical rod 22B and a ridge 22A formed along the inside of the rod 22B, and the lower end of the rod 22B is connected to the lower end of the other rod of the opposite row of rods. The cross-shaped bottom frame structure has two rows of bar members 22 which are connected by a guard member 21.
is formed between the lower ends of. A protrusion 23 is provided at the intersection of the squeezing member 21 for supporting one bar of soap placed between the two rows of bar members 22 of the soap holder 2.
are provided, and as shown in FIG. 3, each protrusion 23 is
It has a bottomed installation hole 231 that coincides with one of the installation protrusions 13A shown in FIG.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the soap support 2
At the lower end of the rod body 22B of each rod member 22, there is a bottomed installation hole 222 that matches one of the installation protrusions 13.
and a pair of forks 221 integrally formed with and extending from the lower end of rod 22B, the forks 221 having holes 223 in which the transverse frame members 14 fit snugly.
The fork 221 is also provided with a protrusion 221A projecting from the inner end of the fork 221 to hold the transverse frame member 14, and when the support 2 is placed in the car 1, the bottomed installation of the bar member 22 is prevented. The holes 222 engage the corresponding mounting projections 13, and each transverse frame member 14 has a hole 2 in the fork 221.
23, and at the same time the bottomed mounting hole 231 of each projection 23 engages the corresponding mounting projection 13A.

The soap support 2 is preferably made of a plastic or rubber material so as to have a certain degree of elasticity.

Mounting protrusion 1 on the bottom frame structure of car 1
3 and 13A are arranged to correspond to the bottomed installation hole 222 of the bar member 22 and the bottomed installation hole 231 of the protrusion 23 of the support 2, respectively, as described above. To assemble the soap support 2 to the basket 1, the bottomed portion of the bar member 22 is aligned by aligning the hole 223 of the fork 221 with the corresponding transverse frame member 14 as shown in FIG. The installation hole 222 and the bottomed installation hole 231 of the protrusion 23 of the support 2 first correspond to the installation protrusion 13,1.
3A and are arranged in line with each other. When the support 2 is then pushed downward, each pair of forks 221 slides elastically into the corresponding transverse frame member 14 as shown in FIG. and the bottomed installation holes 231 of the protrusions 23 are matched with each of the installation protrusions 13 and 13A on the bottom of the car 1. The support 2 is removed from the car 1 by pulling it upwards. At that time, Folk 22
1 is elastically expanded to form a transverse frame member 1
4 is released, and the lower ends of member 22 and projection 23 are removed from projections 13 and 13A.

The hanging plate 3 is a flat plate 31 as shown in FIG.
and a number of parallel vertical ribs 32 provided on one side of the plate 31, each rib 32 having a tip 33.
and a notch 34, into which the tongue 121 of the cage collar 12 engages. The plate 31 has two installation holes 35.
, through which a headed screw or nail (not shown) passes to fix the hanging board 3 to the wall.

As shown in FIG.
It can be hung on the hanging plate 3 by interlocking the two tongues 121.

By incorporating the soap holder 2 into the basket 1 and hanging the basket 1 from the hanging board 3 fixed to the bathroom wall, you can store a single wet soap bar inside the soap holder without worrying about soaking the soap in water. can be conveniently placed.

As shown in FIG. 6, the soap basket of the present invention has the following features:
By placing a container-shaped adapter 4 that can hold water in the basket 1, it can be converted into a walled bottle. The container-shaped adapter is a soap supporter 2.
a side wall 43 having a hole 41 corresponding to the bar member 22;
and the bottom part 4 resting on the top of the protrusion 23 of the soap support 2.
2, the container-shaped adapter 4 can be placed in the basket 1 without removing the soap support 2.

〔Effect of the invention〕

According to the basket assembly of the present invention, the soap support made of a bar member is mounted inside the basket made of a grill-like frame structure, and the bar soap support can be easily hung on the bathroom wall. Not only is the soap bar securely held within the bar so that it does not slip out, but it also prevents the soap bar from being submerged in water, making it extremely convenient. Further, if necessary, a container-shaped adapter can be housed in the soap holder to use it as a walled bottle.
