Dry floor bath tub
Bath tubs have been around for many hundreds of years, however the bath tub & shower combination not as long. The bath and shower combination has its conveniences, it gives the user a choice; the choice of just taking a tub bath, a shower or both. However, if the choice entails taking a shower, the results could means water on bathroom floor. Water on the floor presents a safety hazard that the elderly and very young find difficult to negotiate. Therefore there is a need to prevent water from exiting the bath tub and shower enclosure. What is new about this device or this tub & shower modification is its ability to keep bathroom floor dry, during the bathing process. It does this by redirecting the water back into the tub's own drainage system through a combination usage of shower curtains, water shields and a modified drainage system.
Dry floor bath tub attachment
This device when adapted to an ordinary bath tub, converts the tub into a system that prevents spilled water resulting from the process of taking a bath, from spilling onto the bathroom floor. This device captures the water that ordinarily would have fallen on the floor and redirects it to a reservoir tank, for holding. This tank or water holding device, stores the water until it is quickly and easily disposed by dumping it back into the tub's drainage system. There is no other system that has the ability to keep the bathroom floor completely dry when either taking a shower or a bath. With a series of shield, water trough and hoses, the water that ordinarily would have become a safety hazard on the floor, is quickly channeled off to a drain line, there to a reservoir tank from which the water would be disposed. The device is attractive, non-intrusive and light weight. It is also detachable after installation and is completely portable and transferrable.
BATHTUB DOOR SYSTEMS AND METHODS
Embodiments described herein include a bathtub that can include a U-shaped step saddle associated with a door assembly. The door assembly can include a hinge coupled with the U-shaped step saddle such that the door assembly can be transitioned between an open position and a closed position. The door assembly can include a catch and a latch to secure the door in the closed position.
Shelter cover
A shelter cover for a bathtub includes a hood, a guide, a fastener, a controller and indicator. The hood has a lower surface that extends about its periphery. The hood forming a concave body. The guide is coupled to either an interior surface or an exterior surface of the hood and extends below the lower surface. The fastener is in communication with either the hood or the guide to selectively couple the concave body to the bathtub. An interior handle is located on the interior surface of the concave body. The controller is coupled to the concave body and is in communication with the indicator. The indicator indicates the presence of a person inside the concave body to an individual exterior to the bathtub and concave body. The controller regulates operation of the indicator.
Devices and methods for water control
Disclosed are methods, devices and kits for controlling water flow when using a transfer bench, comprising a transfer bench splash guard.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR A BATHING SYSTEM
A bathing system, includes a transfer system having a carrier base and a transfer seat. A sliding of the transfer seat relative to the carrier base may facilitate transfer of the transfer seat toward or away from the tub. A first arm and a second arm of the carrier base extends into and overlaps with a first support surface and a second support surface of the tub respectively. A controller may be in operative communication with a plurality of sensors and determine whether the bathing system is in a state where it is permissible to transfer the transfer seat toward or away from the tub and if so, actuate components of the transfer system to permit the transfer of a patient in the transfer system.
Bathing Leg Restraint
A bathing leg restraint includes a pair of base members and a connector member connecting the base members. A support extends upwardly from an upper surface of each base member. A leg restraint member is affixed to an upper end of each support, such that each leg restraint member is rotatably secured to its respective support. The lower surface of each base member is securable to the inner surface of a bathing enclosure, such as a bathtub. The base members contact and support the inner thighs of the user when the user is seated upright within the bathtub. The leg restraint members can be rotated overtop of the user's legs to prevent their legs from rising out of the water. The base members and the leg restraint members maintain the user's legs in a submerged state and prevent the user from sliding downwardly toward the opposite end of the bathtub.
