Writing and reading table for a bathtub
A system and method for a device for supporting writing and reading materials such as books that are held with a spring loaded clip so the user may view the materials in the inverted position while they are in the bath tub or relaxing in bed whereby the user may orientate the device for a more comfortable view as well as fold up the device to place it in storage.
REUSABLE BATH BOMB VESSEL
A submersible vessel which can act as a reusable bath bomb delivery system is provided. The vessel may include a housing and an opening port. The interior of the housing and ports form a chamber, which can be segmented into multiple sub-chambers. Inlet one-way valve(s) and outlet one-way valve(s) are provided on the vessel. To use, the chamber is partially filled with a mixture including an effervescent material. When water is introduced through the inlet valve, it reacts with the effervescent material, releasing carbon dioxide and dissolving the other ingredients in the mixture, building pressure in the chamber. When the pressure builds to a certain level, the inlet valve(s) are closed, and the outlet valve(s) are opened. The outlet valves may be positioned such that when the fluid and gas is expelled, the force generated may cause the vessel to spin or be propelled in the bath.
FOOT SPA CONSTRUCT
Arrangements for sealing a liner about the overflow aperture of a foot spa basin are provided. In one embodiment, a tube communicating with the overflow aperture and an annular, elastomeric seal are provided. In another embodiment, a vacuum is provided. In a third embodiment, an annular ring having suction cups adapted to releasably grip the basin is provided.
INTELLIGENT DRAINAGE DEVICE
An intelligent drainage device includes a power supply unit, a water discharge key, drain assemblies, a motor drive unit and a control unit. The drain assembly, installed to a bathtub drain hole, includes a waterstop member, a stepping motor and a receiving tube. The receiving tube engages fixedly and oppositely the waterstop member and a power transmission shaft of the stepping motor. The control unit receives a start/stop signal from the water discharge key, then transmits the signal to the motor drive unit for controlling the power transmission shaft to drive the corresponding waterstop member to move upward or downward. In this device, with a simple touch at the water discharge key, the control unit would control the motor drive unit to activate the stepping motors so as to have all the drain assemblies at the respective drain holes to discharge simultaneously and rapidly the water inside a bathtub.
Voice activated self-cleaning shower with programmable settings for individuals
The inventive device disclosed in the present application is a shower that will clean itself, with rotating sprinkler heads throughout shower, at an independent time, or after receiving a voice command. In addition, the user will be able to use the voice activation feature control to set the water temperature, as well as set the water flow desired from the shower head. The starting point for water temperature and water flow for each independent user is programmed into a CPU, though during showering that temperature and water flow may be adjusted through voice commands or by interfacing with a controller. A green light on the controller indicates for the user that the desired temperature and water flow point have been reached.
Abrasive hygiene apparatus and method of use
An abrasive non-pliable hygiene apparatus for smoothing a foot and method of use. The apparatus includes an abrasion sheet, frame, and engagement sheet. The abrasion sheet is composed of a non-pliable, corrosion-resistant material with a roughened top surface designed to increase abrasion efficiency between the sheet and an epidermal surface of a foot. The abrasion sheet also has bracketing members designed to engage the frame. The frame has ridge structures designed to retain the abrasion sheet and allow for user grip. Attached to the bottom of the frame, the engagement sheet facilitates friction, retaining the placement of the apparatus during use. The frame and abrasion sheet may be one structure, having at least one additional channel disposed along a side, allowing other abrasion sheets to be attached thereto.
PORTABLE CONTAINER FOR CLEANLY STORING A LOOFAH PUFF
A portable container for cleanly containing a loofah puff in the form of a contoured sleeve. One end of the sleeve is open allowing the loofah puff to be put in or removed from the container. The opposite end is substantially closed with a central hole through which a loofah puff cord can be pulled to draw the loofah puff into the sleeve. The cord is left exposed so the container with the loofah puff inside can be hung by the cord if desired. The shape of the sleeve tends to bias the loofah puff in an ideal orientation for folded compression as the loofah puff is drawn into the container and uses the elasticity of the loofah puff to hold it within the sleeve once it is drawn all or most of the way into the sleeve. A lid closes the open end of the sleeve when desired.
Semi-open showering device
A semi-open bathing device (200) is provided, one aspect of which relates to multi-function showering device, comprising a chair assembly, a plurality of first dispensers (220/222), a supply assembly, a temperature regulator, and a waste water management assembly. In the semi-open bathing device (200), the chair assembly comprises a seat (202) with a hole (204) disposed in the center of the seat (202). A backrest (206) and two sidewalls (214) are coupled to the seat (202) respectively thereby forming a front opening for the chair assembly. The backrest (206) provides a support for the bather and the two sidewalls (214) are configured to contain the spillage of water. The plurality of first dispensers (220/222) is positioned onto the sidewalls (214) and/or the backrest (206) for dispensing water and/or air towards the bather. The supply assembly is located at backside of the backrest (206) for connecting to a water supply and an electricity supply.
Hand attachable animal washing apparatus
A hand attachable animal washing apparatus, attachable upon the hand of a user, enables singlehanded control of waterflow and application of water into the coat of an animal. Control of waterflow though a molded body member is enabled by operation of a compressible portion disposed to control a valve assembly disposed interiorly within the molded body member. A proximal arced edge is disposed projected rearwardly from the molded body member and curved downward to direct waterflow away from a user operating the device, particularly when the device is elevated above a user, as when washing a large animal such as a horse, for example. A user may thereby control and apply water to an animal with one hand while securing and comforting the animal with the other hand.
Surface attachable washing apparatus
A surface attachable washing apparatus enables easy control of water flow through a molded body member. A valve assembly, disposed interiorly within the body member, is actuated by simple depression of an overlying portion of an obverse surface of the molded body member, to toggle a valve assembly between each of a closed position and an open position. Water flow is therefore controllable by manual pressure to alternately emit and prevent water flow sprayed through each of a plurality of outlets. At least one suction cup enables selective positioning of the molded body member upon a surface distally situated relative to an existing water outlet to which the apparatus is connected. A user may therefore position the apparatus at a desired height in the bath room, for example, to correspond with a child who can then easily control of the water flow during bath time.
