Abstract (en)

[origin: US4646491A] A partition which constitutes one wall of a shower stall has a fixedly mounted upright wall member and an upright door member which is pivotable relative to the wall member about a vertical axis between a closed position in which one upright marginal portion of the door member is adjacent to the inner side and overlies the adjacent upright marginal portion of the wall member and at least one open position in which the door member extends outwardly beyond the outer side of the wall member. The door member is coupled to the wall member by several hinges each of which is secured to the door member as well as to a discrete horizontal bar which can serve as a towel bar, which is adjacent to the outer side of the wall member and which is slidable relative to and is releasably connected with several bearings mounted on the wall member by distancing elements. One of the bearings can be anchored in or separably affixed to a further wall of the shower stall. Slidability of the bars relative to their bearings renders it possible to compensate for manufacturing and/or assembling tolerances.
