A bath tub lifter, comprising a seat element (1), a lifting apparatus (4) for raising and lowering the seat element (1) between a lower operating end position and an upper operating end position, and a scissor lift arrangement (10) having two pairs of scissor lifts with scissor elements, wherein, in the operative state, respectively two scissor elements are coupled to each other such that they are mutually pivotable about a bearing axis.

An adjustable bathroom handrail assembly is provided with a pair of elongate vertical handles with mounting hardware to mount to an upright support surface and spaced apart from the upright support surface. An adjustable horizontal bar extends between the pair of vertical handles, and a locking mechanism connects the at least one adjustable horizontal bar and one of the pair of elongate vertical handles. A locking mechanism is located at an intersection of the horizontal bar and the one of the elongate vertical handles. A method for installing and adjusting wall-mount hardware installs a pair of elongate vertical handles to an upright support surface. The ends of a horizontal bar are installed onto the pair of elongate vertical handles. A locking mechanism on the horizontal bar is disengaged to adjust the horizontal bar to a location along the pair of elongate vertical handles.

The present invention relates to a bath seat. The bath seat has a top, a front end, and a back end opposite thereof. The top extends between the front end and the back end of the bath seat. The top includes a centrally disposed channel. The channel includes an enlarged first end, a second end opposite thereof, and a connecting portion connecting the ends of the channel together. The second end of the channel aligns with one of the front end and the back end of the seat. Fluid entering into the channel is directed to the second end of the channel, past said one of the front end and the back end of the seat and thereby drains from the seat.

The apparatuses and methods of making and using the same are directed to bathing apparatus to support an object while bathing the object with a fluid. The bathing apparatus may comprise a support assembly constituting a support structure of the apparatus; a support surface to support the object, the support surface supported by the support portion; and a fluid catch disposed on at least three sides of the support surface, the fluid catch serving as a basin for the fluid in such manner to contain the fluid separate from the support surface.

A walk-in tub design that can also act as a standard bathtub via a hub that can be moved out of the way, and is capable of converting from a standard walk-in shower to a standard bathtub in the lowered position.

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 spa (100) with built-in seating is disclosed. The spa (100) includes a pool body (10) partially enclosing a water cavity (11), and a seating assembly (20). The seating assembly (20) includes an inflatable bench (23) attached to a floor of the pool body (10), and an inflatable backrest (25) attached to the inflatable bench (23) by at least one attachment assembly (31) having an adjustable length such that a user can adjust a position of the inflatable backrest (25) relative to the inflatable bench (23).

An improved bath seat for a young child or infant is provided. The bath seat has a plurality of rigid, extendable and retractable, stabilizing arms that include pivotable, spring-loaded suction cups at or near their ends that are engageable by means of suction with a wall of the bathtub to prevent the bath seat from tipping.

A transfer seating assembly for facilitating transitioning of a user to a shower enclosure or tub includes a plate, a plurality of legs, and a seat. The legs are engaged to and extend substantially perpendicularly from a bottom of the plate. Each leg comprises a plurality of nested sections so that the leg is selectively extensible. The legs can be selectively extended to position the plate in a substantially horizontal position and at a desired height. The seat is rotationally and slidably engaged to a top of the plate and can be selectively and fixedly engaged to the plate. A user positioned in the seat can selectively slide the seat, and the user, from proximate to a first end to proximate to a second end of the plate. The user also is positioned to rotate the seat, and the user, relative to the plate.

A baby bathing system including a bathing tub, having a reservoir and a bath basin connected to the reservoir by a weir discharging bath water from the reservoir into the bath basin. A baby bath support insert is received within the bath basin downstream of the reservoir, the baby bath support insert having a flexible seat and a base projection projecting from the flexible seat towards the bath basin. The base projection is conformally seated against an interior surface of the bath basin and supports the flexible seat raised from the interior surface of the bath basin with the baby bath support insert received in the bath basin. The base projection includes at least one aperture extending through the base projection and disposed so that bath water from under the flexible seat communicates through the base projection with outer sides of the bath basin.
