not that anyone seems to use them这个句子对吗

In front of the chairs are deep sinks with a showerhead and long metal tube attached to the copper taps with screws, not that anyone seems to use them.

请问:not that anyone seems to use them.是定语从句吗?怎么感觉好像少了些什么?

      not that 是一个习惯用法,用来表示说话人前面所说的事也没什么大不了,并没有暗示什么。(used to state something said before is not important and you are not suggesting something.) 可译为“并非……”,“并不是说……”。是说话人对前面说过的话的一个补充说明。通常前面有逗号或破折号。可理解是I am not suggesting that + 从句变化而来的惯用语。肯定不是定语从句。从功能上讲,对前面整句话作补充说明,起的是状语的作用(评注性性状语----说话人对自己句子的评论、解释)。

      She hasn't written—not that she said she would. 她没写信,她也并没说过要写。

      I saw him with some other woman, not that I care. 我看见他和别的女人在一起,其实我也不在乎。
