Wet-area device and method for manufacturing wet-area device
According to one embodiment, a wet-area device includes a main part, a first layer, and a second layer. The first layer is provided on an outer surface of the main part. The second layer is provided on an outer surface of the first layer. A hardness of the second layer is greater than a hardness of the first layer. The first layer includes a first unevenness at a side of the outer surface of the first layer. The first unevenness includes a plurality of recesses and a plurality of protrusions. The second layer includes a second unevenness at a side of an outer surface of the second layer. The second unevenness includes a plurality of recesses and a plurality of protrusions. The second unevenness is arranged along the first unevenness. An average height of the first unevenness is less than an average length of the first unevenness.
Washing machine provided with movable auxiliary washing unit
A washing machine with movable auxiliary washing unit includes: a main washing machine body having an opening and a first main washing space communicated with the opening; and an auxiliary washing unit comprising a doorsets assembly configured over the opening to be pulled out or pushed in for opening or closing the opening, wherein the doorsets assembly further has an auxiliary washing space.
Portable hygiene apparatus
A portable hygiene station that is configured to be transportable so as to facilitate execution of hygiene protocols such as but not limited to hand washing at locations wherein utility infrastructure is unavailable. The portable hygiene station includes a frame wherein the frame is manufactured from a plurality of support members. The frame includes an upper portion and a lower portion that are integrally formed. The lower portion of the frame has mounted therein a first tank and a second tank.
