Abstract
A baby bath-support device comprises a frame having a generally rigid body. The rigid body is adapted to be positioned on a surface of a bathing tub or sink. The frame has an opening in the upper portion. The opening comprises a peripheral edge. The opening also comprises a support panel made of a flexible material. The flexible material defines a concave support surface to support a baby laid thereon during bathing. The support panel contains perforations to allow fluid to flow through the support surface. The frame opening also comprises a connection arrangement between the frame and the support for hanging the support panel at the peripheral edge. The support panel is hung to the frame to partially cover the opening.

A baby bath-support device comprising:
- a frame having a generally rigid body adapted to be positioned on a surface of a bathing tub or sink, the frame defining an opening in an upper portion, the opening including a peripheral edge, the frame having a footprint greater than or equal to a footprint defined by the peripheral edge;
- a support panel made of a flexible material and defining a support surface adapted to support a baby laid thereon during bathing, wherein the support panel is connected by the connection arrangement all along the peripheral edge;
- and
- a connection arrangement between the frame and the support for hanging the support panel at the peripheral edge such that the support panel is hung to the frame to cover at least partially the opening.
A baby bath-support device comprising:
- a support frame having a top and a bottom, the bottom configured to be laid on a surface of a bathing tub or sink, the top defining a peripheral edge, a portion of the support frame flaring outwardly toward the bottom such that a footprint of the portion of the support frame is at least as great as a footprint defined by the peripheral edge;
- and
- a panel body being more flexible than the support body, the panel body being attached to the peripheral edge of the top, the panel body suspended from the peripheral edge.
A baby bath-support device comprising:
- a frame having a generally rigid body adapted to be positioned on a surface of a bathing tub or sink, the frame defining an opening in an upper portion, the opening including a peripheral edge, the frame having a footprint greater than or equal to a footprint defined by the peripheral edge;
- a support panel made of a flexible material and defining a support surface adapted to support a baby laid thereon during bathing, the support panel being a monolithic piece made of a thermoplastic elastomer having a plurality of holes;
- and
- a connection arrangement between the frame and the support for hanging the support panel at the peripheral edge such that the support panel is hung to the frame to cover at least partially the opening.
