Embodiment Construction

[0022] figure 1 A collapsible bathtub 101 according to the invention is shown in an unfolded state. The bathtub comprises a bottom 102 and four side walls 103a, 103b, 103c, 103d. The tub also includes a bottom flexible bendable connection 104 and a side flexible bendable connection 105, a portion of the bottom is folded around the bottom bendable connection, some of the side walls are folded around the side bendable connections, in addition, The edge of the tub forms a flexible edge bendable connection 106 around which two different side walls can be folded.

[0023] figure 2 The collapsible tub is shown in a half folded state and the bottom 102 is shown folded around the bottom flexible collapsible link 104 so that part of the bottom lifts between side walls 103a and 103b while side walls 103b and 103d surround the side walls The flexible bendable connection part 105 is folded, and the edge flexible bendable connection part 106 is also folded at the same time, so that the...
