The cabinet is provided with suitable means 36 whereby the curtain may handles 3 by which it may be'readily moved be drawn out to extend substantially 55 from place to place as desired and has a throughout the length of the ring 27' or res tract-ed into folds as desired. The lower section 24 of the support 23 is incorporated in the frame of the cabinet 1 and the remaining sections 24 are of suitable length to fit within suitable openings or hangers formed for their reception in the cabinet 1 when the structure is demounted. The bracket 26, ring 27, spray pipe 28and nozzle 29 are adapted to be placed within the cabinet 1 as in the curtain 35 and pipe 22, whenever it is desired to pack the. several elements in a limited space.
The handle l4, 16 for operating the pump 13 may, if desired, be made to fold or may be formed in parts joined together otherwise than as shown provided it is so formed as to be folded or demounted so as not to project above the top of the cabinet when not in use.
The cabinet instead of being closed upon all sides may, if desired, be constructed with the sides and top thereof openexcept for a suitable enclosing framework for supporting the tank and pump and serving to retain the remaining elements in place when demounted and disposed therein. Suitable supporting members appropriately placed to receive each of the elements such as the sections 24, spray pipe and nozzle, et'c., are preferably positioned in the interior of the cabinet or frame 1 for-properly supporting these elements therein in such a manner as to provide a compact assembly of the ele ments so arranged astobe most readily accessible.
A pan 38, which in the present instance is of circular form and provided with flaring sides 89 ispositioned below the spray nozzle 29. Anannular section of canvas or other suitable material 40'is secured to the flaring sides 39-0 the, pan by means of brackets 41, whereby an additional effective area is given to the pan 38, and the canvas member 40 extends upwardly therefrom to form in efiect an extension of the flaring sides 39.
The loweredge of the canvas 40 extends downwardly over the inner portion of the wall 39 to apoint adjacent to the base of the pan as shown in Fig. 4. The brackets 41 each comprise a base portion 42 fitting with in a loop 43 carried by the pan, prongs 44 adapted to engage over the upper edge of the wall 89, and an outwardly inclined elongated portion 45 adapted to engage a loop 46 in the canvas member 40 to hold the canvas in extended position when in use.
When the parts of the apparatus are in position for use the lower end of the curtain 35 is positioned within the canvas member weaves 40 and terminates somewhat above the base of the pan 36.
The canvas member 40 cooperates with the lower portion of the curtain 35 to prevent the water from the spray nozzle from lpieing splashed from the pan 38 upon the oor.
In the operation of our improved structure, the tank 6 is filled or partially filled with water of the desired temperature, the valve 9 is closed and the lever 14 actuated to place the tank under the desired pressure. The sections 24 are assembled and the bracket 26 carrying the spray pipe 28, spray nozzle 29, and ring 27 is'placedin position upon the upper member 24 when the parts assume the position shown in Fig. 1, the pan 38 and canvas 40 having previously been placed in position below the spray nozzle. The apparatus is now ready for use, and upon extending the curtain 35 and opening the valve 31 the water from the tank 6 will be forced through the pipe 22 and spray nozzle 29. hen the apparatus is not in use the parts may be placed in the cabinet 1, thus occupying a minimum space and presenting the general appearance of an'ordinary closed cabinet.
I The term frame as employed in the appended claim is intended to cover either an enclosed or partially enclosed cabinet, either with or without side doors and with or without a removable or hinged cover, or a frame with open sides and top for supporting the tank and pump and provided with spaces adapted to receive the sections 24, spray pipe, nozzle and curtain supporting ring when the parts are demounted.
What we claim is:
In a portable and demountable bath structure, a frame provided with separate compartments and having a space therein for storing .the demountable elements, a tank carried by the frame and secured in one of the said compartments, a pump carried by the frame and located in another of said compartments and permanentlyconnected with said tank for placingthe. tank under pressure, a demountable spray, a flexible pipe connecting said tank and spray, a demountable supportcarried by said frame and supporting the spray when in operative position, said spray and support being demountable to permit their being stored within the frame when not in use.
In testimony whereof we have afiixed our signatures. LUCIEN J. B. TALBOT. I VITAL A. LECUIVRE.
