A shower head assembly comprising:
- a pipe section having a first end with a threaded female connection for attaching to a shower pipe and a second end with a threaded male connection for attaching a shower head device, said pipe section including a mounting block disposed thereon, said mounting block having a recess formed therein, said recess opening out of said mounting block at a longitudinal end of said recess and along one longitudinal side of said recess;
- and
- a hanger arm having a longitudinal axis extending along a length direction of said hanger arm, a cross section of said hanger arm taken along said longitudinal axis having a profile corresponding to a recess cross section profile for permitting said hanger arm for being inserted into said recess and held therein, said hanger arm having a longitudinal end with an enlarged cross section relative to an adjacent portion of said hanger arm, said recess having a second longitudinal end having an enlarged recess cross section relative to an adjacent portion of said recess, said enlarged recess cross section corresponding to said enlarged cross section of said hanger arm.
A shower head assembly attachable to a shower pipe for supporting clothes hangers, the shower head assembly comprising:
- a pipe section having a mounting block and a recess formed in the mounting block, said recess having longitudinal end opening opening out of said mounting block at a longitudinal end of said recess and said recess having a longitudinal side opening opening out along one longitudinal side of said recess;
- and
- a hanger arm removably insertable into the recess through said longitudinal side opening for being removably attached to the pipe section, said hanger arm projecting out of said longitudinal end opening,
- the hanger arm having a longitudinal axis extending along a length direction of said hanger arm and along said longitudinal side opening, a cross section of said hanger arm taken along said longitudinal axis having a profile corresponding to a recess cross section profile of the recess for permitting said hanger arm for being inserted into said recess and held therein, and
- the pipe section being configured to attach to the shower pipe and receive the hanger arm such that the hanger arm is supported in a non-vertical orientation against the force of gravity by the pipe section for supporting one or more clothes hangers on the hanger arm while the pipe section is attached to the shower pipe and while the hanger arm is adopting a horizontal orientation.
