BATHTUB WITH LINER Filed May 5, 1961 IN VEN TORS ROBE??? G-CQOK BY 5 VAN B. CocK ATTORNE VS United States Patent 3,045,254 BATHTUB WITH LINER Robert G. Cook, Rte. 2, and Evan B. Cook, Rte. 3,
both of Urbana, Ohio Filed May 5, 1961, Ser. No. 108,075 Claims. (Cl. 4-173) This invention relates to a novel combination of bathand walls of the tub, as well as the tops of .the tub walls and provides yielding and non-slip protection and comfort for the user of the tub, which renders the liners especially suitable for use in hospitals and nursing homes.
Another object of the invention is the provision of a combination of the character indicated above, wherein novel and improved means are provided for securing the liner in place in the tub and non-shiftably relative to surrounding tub or other bathroom walls, and for secura-ble engagement with the hook flange on the access side wall of the tub.
A further object of the invention is the provision of a more comfortable and eflicient bathtub liner which is composed of an outer semi-flexible impervious plastic layer, and an inner supporting layer of compressible material, such as foam rubber.
A still further object of the invention is the provision of a tub liner of the character indicated above, wherein the outer layer lends itself to being colored and/or embossed with designs whereby-the appearance of the tub, and hence that of the bathroom, is rendered attractively decorative.
Other important objects and advantageous features of the invention will be apparent from the following description and the accompanying drawings, wherein, for purposes of illustration only, a specific form of the invention is set forth in detail.
In the drawings:
FIGURE 1 is a schematic perspective view of a combination of the present invention installed in an alcove of a bathroom;
FIGURE 2 is an enlarged vertical longitudinal section taken through FIGURE 1;
FIGURE 3 is a further enlarged fragmentary vertical transverse section taken on the line 33 of FIGURE 1; and
FIGURE 4 is a fragmentary vertical section on the scale of FIGURE 3, taken on the line 4-4 of FIGURE 2.
Referring in detail to the drawings, wherein like numerals designate like parts throughout the several views, a bathroom alcove it) has a longitudinal wall 12 and transverse walls 14, and set into the alcove is a tub 16 equipped with a liner 1 8, in accordance with the present invention. The bath tub 16 has a bottom wall 20, head and foot end walls 22 and 24-, respectively, an inner side wall 26, and an outer or access side wall 28. The tub walls 22, 24 and 26 have laterally outwardly extending substantially plain horizontal flanges 30, on their upper edges. The access side ,wall 28 has a l-aterally outwardly extending horizontal flange 32'. which terminates in a The liner 18 comprises an elongated pan-shaped form having a bottom wall 38 to lie flat upon the tub bottom 3,045,254 Patented July 24, 1962 ice wall 20, ahead end Wall 40 to. conform to and cover the tub head end wall 22, a foot end wall 42 to conform to and cover the tub afoot end wall 24, an inner side wall 44 to conform to and cover the tub side wall 26, and an outer side wall 46 to conform to and cover the outer or access side wall 28 of the tub.
The walls 4%}, 42 and 44- have, on their upper edges, lateral flanges 48, to bear conformably upon and cover the tube wall flanges 30. The liner flanges 48 are on the outer layer only of the liner 18 and are continuous around their related liner walls, and terminate in free edge portions 50 which, as shown-in FIGURES 2 and 4, are inserted upwardly between the alcove walls and their tile coverings 36, from their lower edges 52, and preferably secured in place, as by means of cement (not shown).
The liners access wall 46 has, along its upper edge, and continuous with the flanges 4t} of the liner, a lateral flange 54, on the outer liner layer only, which conforms to and overlies the tub access wall flange 32, as shown in FIG- URE 3. The flange 54 terminates in a U-shaped free edge portion 56 which extends around the hook flange 34, and has a retaining strap or bar 58, which engages retainably in the groove 69 defined between the outer surface of the tub access wall and the hook flange 34.
The liner 18 is composed of an outer or upper layer 62 of semi lexible water impervious sheet material, such as the type of plastic materials used in the molding of pails, dishpans, and the like; and an inner or lower layer 64, adhered to the layer 62 of compressible material, such as foam rubber. The compressible layer 64 is of sufficient cross section and density to provide substantial cushioning for occupants of the tub :16, without undue collapse thereof. The surface of the plastic outer layer 62 has inherent anti-slip characteristics which prevent sliding and slipping by occupants of the tub.
Although there has been shown and described a prefer-red form of the invention, it is to be understood that the invention is not necessarily confined thereto, and that any change or changes in the structure of and in the relative arrangements of components thereof are contemplated as being within the scope of the invention as defined by the claims appended hereto.
