Shower curtain ring assembly

Abstract

A shower curtain ring assembly includes multiple curtain ring units each have a ring and a clamping portion extending from the ring, the shower rod extends through the rings. Each clamping portion includes two extensions with an entrance defined between two distal ends of the two extensions and a slot is defined in the two extensions so as to accommodate the first and second parts and the shower curtain. The shower curtain includes first and second collars connected thereto and the first and second collars are engaged with a periphery of the passage. The first and second collars push the two extensions outward so as to be retained between the passage between the extensions. Therefore, the shower curtain can be connected to or removed from the shower rod without removing the shower rod from the rings.

1 . A shower curtain assembly comprising:
 a shower curtain having multiple connection areas defined therein which are located at even distance from each other, the shower curtain including a first side and a second side;   multiple connection units located corresponding to the connection areas respectively and each connection unit comprising a first part and a second part, the first part having a first side connected to the first side of the shower curtain and the second part having a first side connected to the second side of the shower curtain so that the shower curtain is clamped between the first and second parts, a first collar extending from a second side of each of the first parts and a second collar extending from a second side of each of the second parts, and   multiple curtain ring units each having a ring and a clamping portion extending from the ring, a shower rod extending through the rings, each clamping portion including two extensions with an entrance defined between two distal ends of the two extensions, a passage defined by the two extensions, a slot defined in the two extensions and accommodating the first and second parts and the shower curtain, the first and second collars engaged with a periphery of the passage, the entrance between the two extensions including a first opening and a second opening, the first opening being located closer to the center of the passage than the second opening, a distance between two opposite ends of the first opening being smaller than a distance between two opposite ends of the second opening, an inner diameter of the passage being larger than the distance between two opposite ends of the first opening, the first and second collars being sized to pass through the second opening and to push the two extensions outward so that the first and second collars pass through the first opening and are engaged with the passage.   
     
     
         2 . The assembly as defined in  claim 1 , wherein each of the connection areas of the shower curtain includes multiple apertures which are located in a circular form. 
     
     
         3 . The assembly as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein each of the first part includes a first disk which has a first hole defined centrally therethrough, multiple protrusions extend from the first side of each first disk and extend through the apertures of the connection area corresponding thereto, each of the second part includes a second disk which has a second hole defined centrally therethrough, multiple reception holes are defined through each second disk and the protrusions are engaged with the reception holes. 
     
     
         4 . The assembly as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein each of the protrusion includes an enlarged head at a distal end thereof so as to form a restriction portion between the protrusion and the enlarged head. 
     
     
         5 . The assembly as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the rings of the curtain ring unit are enclosed rings and the shower rod extends through the rings. 
     
     
         6 . The assembly as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the rings of the curtain ring unit are C-shaped rings and the shower rod is hooked by the C-shaped rings.
