Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1197176A2] The present invention relates to a screen for a shower above a shower tray. There is described a shower screen which includes means to lift the screen out of contact with a surface, such as the edge of a shower tray. The screen is mounted for vertical movement between upper and lower positions upon an element including a spindle having an annular collar towards the upper end thereof and wherein the spindle engages a pivot mount through a vertical spindle shroud. An actuating member is slidably mounted upon the spindle shroud and includes adjacent upper and lower internal communicating annular chambers, the upper chamber being of greater diameter than the lower chamber. The spindle shroud includes at least a pair of equally spaced apertures for receipt of respective engagement means. In the lower panel position, each engagement means engages the annular collar of the spindle, a respective aperture of the spindle shroud and the lower annular chamber of the actuating member. In the upper panel position, the engagement means is disengaged from the annular collar of the spindle. The panel is biased into the upper position by means of a biasing means and the engagement means are biased into the lower panel configuration by means of a spring member. <IMAGE>
