Abstract

The present invention relates to a kit for use in a shower enclosure with a shower curtain. The kit contains a wall component, a connecting component and a retaining component. The wall component has a back wall and at least one front wall, and is removably attachable to a wall surface of the shower enclosure.
The connecting component has both a front portion and back portion. The back portion is detachably connectable to one of said at least one front wall of the wall component by means of magnets attached thereto. Once the wall component and connecting component are connected together, they form a watertight barrier. The front portion of the connecting component contains a protrusion in the form of front spaced apart, elongated arms that are each provided with an abutting edge against which part of the shower curtain may be positioned. The retaining component is detachably connectable to the protrusion of the connecting component with the part of the shower curtain snapped in between.
The retaining component has a pair of arms with end edges that face toward each other and are sized to snap onto the abutting edges of the elongated arms of the protrusion of the connecting component with the part of the shower curtain pinched in between.

Claims (10)

1. A kit for use in a shower enclosure with a shower curtain, said kit comprising:
a wall component having a back wall and at least one front wall, the back wall being removably attachable to a wall surface of the shower enclosure;
a connecting component having a front portion and a back portion, said connecting component having its back portion detachably connectable to one of said at least one front wall of the wall component by means of magnets attached thereto, said wall component and said connecting component once connected forming a watertight barrier, the front portion of said connecting component having a protrusion in the form of two spaced apart, elongated arms that are each provided with an abutting edge against which part of the shower curtain may be positioned; and a retaining component detachably connectable to the protrusion of the connecting component with the part of the shower curtain snapped in between, said retaining component comprising a pair of arms with end edges that face toward each other and are sized to snap onto the abutting edges of the elongated arms of the protrusion of the connecting component with the part of the shower curtain pinched in between.
2.
