PROTECTIVE BARRIER FOR A SINK
This present invention relates to a reusable and flexible sink cover/barrier that allows individuals to use a sink without worry of toothpaste, stray hair and other debris staining the sink surface. The reusable and flexible cover features a silicone configuration that closely adheres to the ceramic sink surface via a pressure sensitive adhesive. The cover comes in the form of a roll that can be easily unrolled to deploy over the sink surface, and that may be easily and quickly wiped clean with a towel or cleaning wipe after each use and then simply rolled up for the next time use is required. In another arrangement, the cover can be discarded after a single use. The cover offers a simple protection means for bathroom sinks and countertops.
SINK TOP ACCESSORY
An accessory item for a sink top is configured to increase the working surface area surrounding the sink. The sink top accessory includes multiple panels preferably made from silicone rubber, each panel having a rigid integrated frame structure. The panels are connected to each other using living hinges, which enable the accessory to be folded for storage. In use, the sink top accessory sits over the sink without obstructing use of the sink faucet, and operates to turn a large portion of the sink into usable work space by operating to extend the counter area around the sink into the sink, thus increasing the working surface area of the same.
Surface protection assembly
A surface protection assembly to protect the surface of an article such as bathtubs, urinals, sinks, and utensils. The surface protection assembly includes a thin, flexible protective layer configured to attach onto a surface of the article. The protective layer is made of clingy plastic material. The protective layer enables a user to handle the article without a risk of the article's surface being deteriorated. The protective layer could be readily removed from the article surface along with the accumulated dirt or bacteria, after each usage.

Advanced Basin Liner Apparatus, Method, and System
The disclosure concerns liners that can be adapted to one or more types of wash basins. A novel aspect of this invention is the flexibility of the liners which may be adapted and easily cut to adjust to the shape and size of a variety of different designs. In some embodiments the liners may be perforated such that items may be cleaned on them and the liners easily drained. In some such embodiments, the liners may incorporate attachment means including but not suction cups, adhesives, or magnets to temporarily affix one or more liners to the surface of the basin or one another. Other embodiments may include grooves to fit around magnets. In certain preferred embodiments, the liner may be a one size fits all liner that may be disposable such that a user can throw it away it with any contents therein, in some embodiments being biodegradable or recyclable.

HAIR-SHAVINGS COLLECTING SHEET
Apparatus and associated methods relate to a hair-shavings collecting sheet that includes at least four peel-back adhesives, in an exemplary embodiment, in each corner on the surface of one side of the sheet to releasably couple the sheet to a surface, such as a bathroom sink, where the adhesive may be optional for use due to the peel-off cover on the adhesives. In an illustrative example, the sheet may be formed of a polymer and made of (oxo-) biodegradable or recycled materials. The sheet may include multiple different adhesive locations disposed around the sheet, for example. In some implementations, the adhesive may have complementary release liners. A sheet with adhesive may securely but releasably keep the sheet in place, thus preventing spillage of shaved hair.

Connector for bridging disposable flexible liner installed in a spa basin and the spa basin for overflow drainage through aperture in wall of the spa basin
A connector for use with a disposable flexible liner installed in a spa basin is provided to bridge between an overflow opening provided in the liner and an overflow aperture provided in an upright wall of the basin, so that when the soaking solution containable in an interior volume of the basin exceeds a prescribed height, the soaking solution is enabled to drain out of the interior volume through the liner at the communicated openings/apertures. A conduit formed by the connector for insertion into the basin to bridge between the communicated openings/apertures is arranged for a friction fit in an overflow throat extending from the overflow aperture defined in the basin.
