A shower curtain mounting device includes: a pair of wall brackets each having a mounting body defining a recess having a concave surface; a pair of joints each of which is pivoted to a respective one of the wall brackets and each of which has a tubular rod connecting part, and a bracket connecting part protruding from the tubular rod connecting part into the recess, the bracket connecting part being rotatable about an axis relative to the mounting body and having a convex surface contacting rotatably the concave surface; and a shower curtain rod transverse to the axis and having two ends respectively extending into the rod connecting parts of the joints.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A shower curtain mounting device comprising:
 a pair of wall brackets each having a mounting body defining a recess having a concave surface;   a pair of joints each of which is pivoted to a respective one of said wall brackets and each of which has a tubular rod connecting part, and a bracket connecting part protruding from said tubular rod connecting part into said recess, said bracket connecting part being rotatable about an axis relative to said mounting body and having a convex surface contacting rotatably said concave surface; and   a shower curtain rod transverse to said axis and having two ends respectively extending into said rod connecting parts of said joints.   
   
   
       2 . The shower curtain mounting device of  claim 1 , further comprising a pair of pivot screws, each of which extends rotatably through said mounting body of a respective one of said wall brackets and into said bracket connecting part of a respective one of said joints to engage threadedly said bracket connecting part. 
   
   
       3 . The shower curtain mounting device of  claim 2 , wherein said mounting body further has two opposite surfaces, and a screw head receiving hole, said screw head receiving hole and said recess being connected alignedly to each other and opening respectively at said opposite surfaces, each of said pivot screws extending through said screw head receiving hole of one of said mounting bodies of said wall brackets and threadedly into said bracket connecting part of the respective one of said joints. 
   
   
       4 . The shower curtain mounting device of  claim 3 , wherein each of said pivot screws has a head received within said screw head receiving hole, and a threaded stem extending threadedly into said bracket connecting part of the respective one of said joints.
