Abstract
An adjustable mount for removable attaching a showerhead to a water supply pipe includes a mounting bracket made of resilient material and having a mounting flange which is sized and shaped to clamp the water supply pipe upon applying an external force. The adjustable mount further includes a holder for the showerhead and an attaching assembly for releasably attaching the holder to the mounting bracket. The attaching assembly has a knob formed on either the holder or the mounting bracket frictionally engaging a recess formed on the other element. Upon inserting the knob in the recess, the bracket and the holder are displaceable relative to one another between a release position, wherein they are freely detachable, and a series of locking positions, wherein their displacement is arrested upon ceasing an external torque.
