Splash protector for bathtub/shower stall with display device
Abstract
A splash guard for preventing water spray from the shower head from wetting the bathroom floor. The splash guard is easily removable from the short wall of the shower stall or bathtub. The splash guard has a substantially vertical member and a slanted member that attaches to the vertical member via a substantially horizontal base member. The vertical and slanted members in conjunction with the base unit form a channel. The base member is slanted such that water captured flows downwards and into the shower stall or bathtub. The upper part of the vertical member has a graphical display that is removable and contains still graphics, moveable graphics and interactive graphics with audio and video signals. Attached to the parts of the splash guard are cords that allow the user to hang the device up for storage during non-use. The shower curtain can be secured to the vertical member, which also assists in the prevention of water spray from wetting or reaching the bathroom floor.
