US 5,544,369 A · Portable shower/multi use stall

Abstract

A portable shower system which when disassembled is stored in its own base, to define a suitcase-like base enclosing all of the support, curtain, and hose structure for transport when not in use, and expandable to a full height, fully enclosed shower stall. The shower stall may use a variety of water sources, either by a gravity fed shower bag, or by a pressure fed system. A compartment in the hollow base serves as a waste water collection chamber. Disposal of waste water can be done by either sealing the base and transporting to a waste disposal area, or connecting a hose to the discharge port, and directing the waste water away from the front of the shower, as well as other means of evacuating waste water from the base. The shower stall may also be used as a privacy room for changing clothes or as a restroom stall, when used in conjunction with a portable toilet. The shower stall may also be used as a decontamination unit when used with optional equipment.
