  • the locking mechanism 118 can include a biasing member 126, such as a spring.
  • the biasing member 126 can bias the engagement mechanism 122 into engagement with the engagement structure 124. This can encourage the locking mechanism 118 toward the locked position. For example, in some variants, when no force is applied to the actuatable mechanism 120 by the user, then the engagement mechanism 122 is pushed toward the second support member 104 (e.g., toward the engagement structure 124). In various embodiments, the locking mechanism 118 can be spring-loaded.

  • the shroud 107 includes a curved opaque plate.
  • the shroud 107 is opaque (e.g., allows the passage therethrough of no or substantially no light).
  • the shroud 107 is translucent, thereby allowing passage therethrough of some light (e.g., less than or equal to about: 50%, 30%>, 20%>, 10%>, 5%, values between the aforementioned values, or other values).
  • the shroud 107 can be configured to enable a user to selectably obscure one or more of the shelves 103 and their contents from view. This can protect the privacy of a user by hiding certain articles on the shelves 103 from view. For example, during a party or other social occasion, the shroud 107 can hide articles on the shelves 103 from being observed by guests that use the bathroom in which the shower is located.
  • the shroud 107 can enhance the aesthetic of a shower. Users may choose to store many different articles (e.g., shampoos, body washes, razors, wash cloths, etc.) on the shelves 103, which can lead to a disorganized appearance. Also, articles on the shelves 103 may drip or otherwise cause a mess, which can further reduce the aesthetic of the shower.
  • the shroud 107 ameliorates such problems by hiding the shelves 103, as well as the articles and/or the associated mess. This can provide an organized and/or clean appearance of the shower. For example, the shroud 107 can provide a streamlined look for the shower.
  • the ability, using the shroud 107, to conceal portions of the shelves 103 and/or personal articles positioned thereon (e.g., when not in use or as desired) can confer an improved quality, feel, functionality, and/or a more luxurious, seamless and aesthetically-pleasing appearance.

Abstract

L'invention concerne divers systèmes de rayonnage, tels que des étagères de douche. Dans certains modes de réalisation, une étagère de douche comprend un élément de support allongé et une pluralité de rayons, dont chacun peut être soutenu par un mécanisme de serrage. L'élément de support peut avoir une configuration télescopique, de sorte que les extrémités supérieure et inférieure de l'élément de support peuvent être pressées contre des structures fixes supérieure et inférieure. Ledit système de rayonnage peut comprendre un capot conçu pour dissimuler, bloquer ou entourer une partie d'une étagère dans une position fermée, et permettre l'accès à cette partie de l'étagère dans la position ouverte.
