Abstract: A support device useful for holding height-adjustable hand-held showers and other devices includes a support slider (1), displaceable along a support bar (2), having a releasable clamping device (3) for fixing the support slider on the support bar. The clamping device (3) has two clamping jaws (8a, 8b) capable of being expanded elastically from a clamping position reducing the clamping gap to a sliding position increasing the clamping gap, which jaws encompass the support bar (2) at least partially, and define a clamping gap (7) between them. An operating unit (50), in an operative position, retains the clamping jaws in a clamping gap increasing sliding position, while the clamping jaws assume their clamping position in an initial position of the operating unit.
