There is described an apparatus for determining a level of a liquid to be contained in a container, comprising: a body extending along a longitudinal axis, the body being insertable within the container; and a level sensor unit secured to the body for detecting the level of the liquid along the longitudinal axis of the body.

A compact self-service pet wash is provided. The compact self-service pet wash includes an equipment room, and a foldable wash tub. The equipment room has a depth that defines the storage depth of the pet wash. The equipment room provides the means to control and supply the wash tub with rinse water, wash solution mix and dry air to wash a pet in the wash tub.

An economical and effective process for the complete removal of soap scum and dirt from surfaces such as those in showers and bathtubs without any scrubbing has been defined. This patent application defines cleaning devices that make the said process easy, practical, and automated. The said devices employ the previous referenced process and ultimately eliminates the chore of cleaning the showers and bathtubs.

Aspects of embodiments of the contemplated invention disclose a bath tub having a distal end, a proximal end, a left side connecting the distal and proximal ends from a first direction and a right side connecting the distal and proximal ends from a second direction. The bath tub derives its advantage over existing bath tubs in that it provides placement of bathing supplies, items and accessories within recessed cavities found in the bath tub thereby allowing for a more relaxing bathing experience for users and an organized storage for the bathing supplies, items and accessories.

An aromatic misting system for use with a bathtub comprises a reservoir having an open top end in which a removable cover structure is disposed. The cover structure has an orifice through which an aromatic mist is discharged. A liquid atomizing piezoelectric element is sealingly secured at a bottom end of the reservoir. The cover structure has a switch actuator when disposed at one position. When the cover is positioned at a second closed position, the reservoir is closed and the switch is not actuated. When there is hot water in the bathtub, the aromatic mist created in the reservoir is drawn out by the hot air generated by hot water placed in the bathtub adjacent the cover orifice, thus creating a temperature differential between the hot air and the cooler mist generated in the reservoir wherein the mist is drawn out by the temperature differential and propagates into a misty cloud over the bathtub.

A tension rod storage kit, comprising a tension rod, a tray and an optional pouch, and a plurality of attachment means for securing the kit to two parallel walls and, optionally, to one wall perpendicular to both of the parallel walls.

A device for bathing infants aids the development of infants by allowing them freedom of movement appropriate to their stage of development. In one embodiment, a basin has an inclined surface with a drainage hole and a plug. In a second embodiment, a basin has a substantially flat bottom and walls shaped to allow the baby to sit in different positions transversely and longitudinally. Preferably, the bottom of this seated baby basin has feet to raise it off the bottom of the adult shower or bathtub. The basin has a perimeter comprising a flexible wall connected to an upper frame and a lower frame, adapted to allow an infant to sit, bend, kneel, walk, or crawl. Preferably, the tension of the flexible wall such as mesh fabric or the equivalent contributes to the good mechanical behavior of the periphery.

A cleaning apparatus suitable for wiping and sterilizing bathtubs and showers is presented. The cleaning apparatus contains a pole, a handle, a lanyard, a cleaning head, and a fastening element. The pole contains a first end and a second end. The first end and the second end are terminally positioned opposite to each other along the pole. The handle is connected adjacent to the first end. The cleaning head is connected adjacent to the second end, opposite to the handle through the fastening element. The lanyard is connected to the handle, opposite to the second end.

A fog generator assembly includes a water vapor generator, a fragrance dispenser, and a mixing element fluidly coupled to the water generator and the fragrance dispenser. The mixing element is configured to mix a fog of water vapor from the water vapor generator with a fragrance from the fragrance dispenser to produce an aromatic fog.

A method of making a safe egress bathtub providing safe egress by reducing slide forces extended on a user's feet upon a slippery bathtub floor, wherein the formed bathtub has a limited rectangular footprint, and an optimized floor space is formed with a substantially planar base with a length and width that define the limited rectangular footprint and a front wall, a back wall, a first side wall and a second side wall integral with and extending substantially vertically upwards from the substantially planar base. Each of the front, back, first side wall and second side wall have minimal wall thicknesses to define the optimized floor space and the front wall has a substantially planar inwardly, cantilevered upper apron deck in a substantially parallel relation to the substantially planar base.
