Problems solved by technology

This can be difficult and even dangerous for those with reduced mobility due to injury or impairment, as the user must straddle the shower wall one leg at a time while balancing on one foot
While this is easily accomplished by a person of normal health and strength, physical impairment and age can rapidly reduce a person's ability to perform such daily activities

Embodiment Construction

[0011] Smart shower cubicles (SSC) are enclosed cubicles that include a water-air spray system (WANS) that sprays soapy water / air, pure water / air, respectively, for washing, rinsing or drying purposes or air alone. The SSC contains a water tank with heater and sensors, a water pump and an air compressor to spray out the water / air mixture. Pipe / hose system with electronic valves to connect with WANS. The SSC is supported by an electronic control system that controls washing, rinsing, drying, water flow rate, air flow rate and pressure.

[0012] The SSC is provided with a height adjustable mesh chair (HANC) which is safe and comfortable without obstructing the wash, rinse and dry cycle. The SSC does not require connection to an external water / drainage system as it contains both the water tank and the drainage tank. Therefore, SSCs are considered portable systems.

[0013] The smart shower cubicle 100 of the present invention provides dignity, independence and privacy to the ...

Abstract

Smart shower cubicles (SSC) (100) are closed cubicles provided with a water-air spray system (WANS) which sprays soapy water / air, respectively, for washing, rinsing or drying purposes. Pure water / air or air alone. The SSC (100) includes a water tank (104) with heater and sensors, a water pump (218), an air compressor (220) for spraying out the water / air mixture, and pipes with electronic valves for connection to the WANS / hose system. The SSC (100) is supported by an electronic control system that controls washing, rinsing, drying, water flow rate, air flow rate and pressure. The SSC (100) is provided with a height adjustable mesh chair (HANC) (110) which provides both safety and comfort without interfering with wash, rinse and dry cycles. The SSC(100) does not require connection to the water / drainage system as it contains both the water tank and the drainage tank. Therefore, the SSC (100) is considered a portable system.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to shower systems, and more particularly to an intelligent shower cubicle that provides enclosed cubicle portable shower assemblies for the elderly and disabled. Background technique [0002] For those with reduced mobility, including the elderly and disabled, entering and exiting a typical shower can be difficult. Most shower enclosures include raised walls for containing water inside the shower enclosure. This wall is an obstacle for some users because it requires the user to step over the wall to enter the bathroom. For those with reduced mobility due to injury or impairment, this can be difficult, even dangerous, as the user must straddle the shower wall one leg at a time while balancing on one foot. While this is easily accomplished by a person of normal health and strength, physical impairment and age can rapidly reduce a person's ability to perform such daily activities. [0003] Therefore, there is a n...
