| 20080313801 | TELESCOPING SHOWER FOR A BOAT - An application for a telescoping boat shower includes telescoping extensions of decreasing diameter that collapse inside of a fishing pole holder of a boat when in storage and extend upwardly from the fishing pole holder when in use. The telescoping extensions conduct water from a larger, lower telescoping extension to a smaller, upper telescoping extension where a nozzle is attached. The nozzle sprays water on a user of the telescoping shower. An adaptable fitting attaches to a bottom of the fishing pole holder, providing a water-tight seal. The adaptable fitting has a water supply fitting for attaching to a supply of water and the adaptable fitting conducts water from the water supply to the telescoping extensions. | 12-25-2008 |

| 20100058532 | PORTABLE SOLAR SHOWER - A portable solar shower includes two detachable water reservoirs. One of the reservoirs may be coupled to a water source and includes a diverter valve regulating the flow and temperature of water spayed by a shower head, and the other reservoir has a port for coupling to the shower head. When the solar shower is not in use, the reservoirs may be separated from one another to form a compact package adapted for storage or transportation. | 03-11-2010 |
| 20100299826 | MOBILE MASS DECONTAMINATION UNIT - The present invention relates to a mobile mass decontamination unit for use in nuclear, radiological, biological or chemical (NRBC) accidents for evacuating categorizing and decontaminating victims. According to the invention, the mobile unit comprises a first area (A) in which the victims are undressed, an intermediate wet decontamination area (B) by overhead or handheld shower, and a final area (C) for drying, checking and dressing; said areas being connected by at least one corridor for the able-bodied and one for patients, which unit is characterized in that:—it consists of a transportable mobile container comprising a roof panel, a floor panel, and two gable panels ( | 12-02-2010 |
| 20110094027 | Mobile Shower Unit - A collapsible and portable cleaning unit. The unit is preferably designed to provide a private shower experience that is comparable to a shower experience for a permanent shower installed at a location, such as a bathroom in a dwelling. This inventive shower unit is designed to be fully portable in a self contained collapsed mode that is substantially contained within the overall footprint of the unit. The unit includes a substantial self supporting base structure and a cap that secures to the base structure to protect the internal components and seals for storage. This unit includes a supportive base that has a pan for directing and containing water from the shower. The unit is designed to provide height clearance that is substantially comparable to showers that are in permanent facilities and/or dwellings. | 04-28-2011 |
| 20120023656 | Portable hot shower - The Portable Hot Shower provides an operational shower stall for outdoor use. The unit, an adult sized, vertical tent-like unit, featuring a canvas covering to ensure durability as well as privacy. A series of connectable polyvinyl chloride piping, PVC, is provided to facilitate the plumbing action of the unit. This material is lightweight, weather-resistant, durable, non-corrosive, and rust resistant. The piping culminates in a showerhead, similar to the types found in home bathroom stalls. The heat source stems from a copper coil situated in a steel cylinder, which rests on a propane heater. Integrally connected to the shower assembly, water circulates through the copper coil cylinder to produce hot water. The water source for the product comes from a portable water tank, an existing body of water such as a river or creek, or a water hose with spigot, if available. The entire Portable Hot Shower unit is sold in kit form, easily assembled and disassembled as needed. | 02-02-2012 |
| 20130340159 | PORTABLE COLLAPSIBLE FREE-STANDING SHOWER - A portable shower includes an enclosure that converts between a two-dimensional collapsed configuration and a three-dimensional upright configuration defining a space therein for a person. The enclosure is self-extending and free-standing in the upright configuration, and desirably has a height of at least 4 feet. The enclosure includes a liner, preferably tubular in shape when extended, and an integrally attached collapsible skeleton such as an elastic coil, preferably helical. The elastic coil has a sufficient relaxed size and spring constant to self-expand the liner when constraints are released. A water reservoir connects to a shower sprayer through a hose, and may be integrated in the wall of the enclosure. For instance, a helical sleeve around the liner may constrain both the elastic coil and the hose. A foot pump may be provided along the hose and within the enclosure for easy propulsion of water from the reservoir to the sprayer. | 12-26-2013 |
| 20150074896 | Outdoor Shower - A rigid, portable, and modular outdoor shower enclosure has a base, walls, and a shower fixture. The shower enclosure may be quickly and easily reassembled after disassembly for storage or transportation. When assembled, pegs, sockets, and gravity constrain the shower enclosure in all degrees of motion. Bolts, screws, and other means of affixing the panels to the base and frame are not necessary to make the shower enclosure rigid. The pegs and sockets are not visible when the shower enclosure is in its assembled position, giving the shower enclosure the pleasing appearance of a permanent structure. | 03-19-2015 |
| 20150113722 | RETRACTABLE SHOWER ENCLOSURE - A retractable shower enclosure includes a top frame and a bottom frame attached together with draw strings for raising and lowering the bottom frame relative to the top frame between a fully deployed position to a fully retracted position. The top frame comprised of tubing wherein the drawstrings are fed through the interior of the tubing. The top frame also includes draw string guides over which the draw strings are fed. A curtain releasably attached to the frames with fasteners such that in the fully retracted position the curtain is pleated in accordion style. | 04-30-2015 |
