1. Shower Curtain Assembly 

Summary

A shower curtain assembly is designed to provide users with a much wider shower space than provided by traditional shower curtains. The shower curtain assembly prevents the curtain from moving inward, eliminates water spilling onto the floor through the gaps between the vertical edges of the shower curtain and side-walls, and even allows the user to sit on the top periphery of the bathtub near the curtain when the shower is in use. The shower curtain can be as easily manipulated as a traditional one.

Problems the Product Solves

Current shower curtains are an inconvenience to the consumer. Generally, the space of a shower closure is narrow, especially for two people, as a result of its inherent structure. The shower curtain is often drawn into the shower enclosure when the shower is in use due to the partial vacuum created by the water spray within the shower enclosure, further decreasing the space and inconveniencing the user. For a shower facility with a traditional shower curtain, the water may spill onto the floor through the gaps between the vertical edges of the shower curtain and side-walls, and the user cannot sit on the top periphery of the bathtub if desired.

Structure Description

The shower curtain assembly is simply comprised of a shower curtain support rod that bows outward from a shower enclosure along its length, end brackets, hooks, a shower curtain, main weights, and small weights. The main weights are attached to the lower portion of the curtain. When the shower curtain is closed, the main weights force the shower curtain to follow the shape of the support rod; a main portion of the shower curtain will be kept away from the shower enclosure due to the shape of the support rod which provides more space to users than with a conventional shower curtain. The main weights and bowed shape of the shower curtain prevent the shower curtain from moving inward when the shower is in use. Small weights with much less mass than the main weights are attached near the bottom edge of the shower curtain to prevent the bottom edge of the curtain from moving outward and passing over the top periphery of the bathtub during the process of opening and closing the shower curtain, as well as ensuring that the bottom edge of the shower curtain stays within the bathtub when the shower is in use.

Unique Characteristics
  • Much wider shower space for consumers than provided by traditional shower curtains
  • Prevents the curtain from moving inward
  • Eliminates water spilling onto the floor through the gaps between the shower curtain and sidewalls
  • Allows the user to sit on the top periphery of a bathtub

Two High Bathroom Tissue Dispenser 
  

Summary

Two High Bathroom Tissue Dispenser provides consumers with an easier method to load, store, replace, and remove toilet tissue rolls. Unlike current dispensers that hold only a single roll or rely on precise placement of the toilet paper spindle, this product will house two rolls of toilet paper without a spindle mechanism. When the current roll is empty, the consumer simply lifts and closes the supports on the outside of the housing. This simple action drops the stored roll into the proper position while allowing the spent roll core to fall into the core holder for removal. Manufacturing and use of this product are easier due to the simple, user-friendly design.

Problems the Product Solves

In homes and businesses, having an accessible spare roll of toilet paper is an absolute necessity. Often, replacing the spent core with a fresh roll of toilet paper requires effort. The spindle mechanism that is required to hold the roll in the desired location is often tricky to correctly position on the first attempt. This frustrating task can lead to the roll and spindle falling to the floor, or even into the toilet itself. Additionally, in current dispensers that hold two rolls vertically, it can be difficult to dispense toilet paper due to the contact between the two rolls and the holder.

Structure Description

Two High Bathroom Tissue Dispenser offers consumers an easier way to replace and dispense toilet tissue in their home or place of business. This dispenser eliminates the unwieldy spindle mechanism found on most toilet roll dispensers while offering a means of easily storing and replacing a toilet paper roll as desired. This unit simply consists of the durable housing, left and right supports, and top cover. The simple act of opening the supports allows the empty roll core to fall to the bottom of the housing. And the spare full roll then falls into position for use. This roll can then be secured by simply placing the exterior supports back into their closed position. By closing the supports, the tissue will move up slightly to form a gap between the tissue and the internal bottom surface of the housing, eliminating the friction that commonly occurs with traditional dispensers. The special structure of the lower portion of the supports makes this dispenser suitable for bathroom tissue rolls with various outside diameters. A fresh spare roll can be dropped into the top of the dispenser while removing the empty roll core. Dimensions, materials, and components may vary according to manufacturing needs.

Unique Characteristics

  • More user-friendly than current products
  • Simpler
  • Easy to replace and dispense the tissue
  • Good for tissue rolls with various outside diameters
