Abstract
A light, portable, flexible vessel for bathing babies is disclosed, comprising a rigid but impact-absorbent frame adapted to be placed on and around the periphery of a conventional kitchen sink, and a removable, slip-on fabric pouch suspended therefrom and secured with a "Velcron"-type seal. The pouch is characterized by cut-offs on at least one corner and preferably is of double thickness, i.e. a sack which will easily slip over the frame.
Claims3
A baby bather comprising a waterproof bag or pouch and a substantially rectangular frame adapted to be placed therein, said pouch or bag having fastening means on its open end for fastening it to the frame while the frame is in said bag or pouch, and said frame having a non-slip, padded exterior and being of a size and shape to rest on the periphery of a conventional kitchen sink so that, when said frame is in said bag or pouch and is resting on the periphery of a kitchen sink, the exterior of the bag or pouch will form a more or less hemispherical container, capable of holding water and a baby, suspended from said frame, said frame having an extra transverse member to form an open space between said extra transverse member and the end of the frame on which the bag or pouch is fastened, through which water may pass from a faucet while the bather is resting on the periphery of a kitchen sink, said transverse member being uncovered by said pouch or bag so that said non-slip padded exterior on the extra transverse member will contact the sink, thereby inhibiting slipping of the bather and providing protection against injury of an infant in said bather.
