Submersible bath lounger

Abstract

A submersible bath lounger includes a base section having a soft padded area and a plurality of traction units configured to secure the lounger to a bottom portion of a bathtub. The submersible bath lounger also includes an adjustable back section having an integrated headrest and lower back support area and a hinge section disposed between the base and back sections in order to provide a means for adjusting the angle of the back section, and a frame assembly positioned within each of the base section and back section for providing rigidity to the lounger.

1 . A submersible bath lounger comprising:
 a base member having a front surface, a back surface, a left edge, a right edge, a top edge and a bottom edge;   a base frame interposed between said front and back surfaces, said frame terminating along a periphery of said top edge and being positioned so as to form a gap between each of the left and right edges;   one or more traction members positioned on the base member, said traction members being configured to prevent lateral and vertical movement of the lounger inside a tub;   a top member having a front surface that includes a concave portion forming a headrest, a back surface, a left edge, a right edge, a top edge and a bottom edge;   a top frame interposed between said front and back surfaces of the top member, said top frame terminating along a periphery of the bottom edge of the top member and being positioned so as to form a gap between each of the left and right edges of said top member; and   a waterproof hinge section connected to each of said top and bottom frames, said hinge section being configured to facilitate pivotal movement between the base member and the top member,   wherein each of said top member and base member are constructed from a waterproof material configured to bend.   
     
     
         2 . The submersible bath lounger of  claim 1 , wherein each of said top member and base member is constructed from at least one of a waterproof plastic foam, neoprene and closed cell foam. 
     
     
         3 . The submersible bath lounger of  claim 1 , wherein said top member is constructed from a fabric mesh material having a foam headrest positioned thereon. 
     
     
         4 . The submersible bath lounger of  claim 1 , wherein said gap section is configured to flex in a vertical direction so as to allow the lounger to fit within a non-standard sized bathtub. 
     
     
         5 . The submersible bath lounger of  claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of holes positioned within each of said top and base members, said holes being configured to allow water to flow from the back of the device to the front and vise versa. 
     
     
         6 . The submersible bath lounger of  claim 1 , wherein each of said one or more traction members is positioned between the top and bottom surface of the base member, and a combined weight of the one or more traction members is sufficient to prevent the lounger from becoming buoyant. 
     
     
         7 . The submersible bath lounger of  claim 1 , wherein the one or more traction members includes at least one of a bag of weighted pellets and a suction cup. 
     
     
         8 . The submersible bath lounger of  claim 1  wherein said top member further includes at least one of a lumbar support positioned on the front surface and tub support positioned on the back surface. 
     
     
         9 . The submersible bath lounger of  claim 1  wherein said base member includes a concave area configured to act as a permanent bolster for the knees of a user. 
     
     
         10 . The submersible bath lounger of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a hook configured to hang the device in a vertical manner when not in use.   
     
     
         11 . The submersible bath lounger of  claim 10 , wherein said hook is telescopic. 
     
     
         12 . The submersible bath lounger of  claim 11 , wherein said hook is secured to the bottom edge of the base member via a secondary hinge. 
     
     
         13 . The submersible bath lounger of  claim 12 , wherein said hook is configured to rotate beneath the base member to as to create an adjustable bolster for the legs of a user. 
     
     
         14 . The submersible bath lounger of  claim 1 , wherein each of said top and base members include a plurality of channels each having multiple openings, said channels being configured to be connected to at least one of an external pump and spa jet apparatus. 
     
     
         15 . A submersible bath lounger comprising:
 a base member having a front surface, a back surface, a left edge, a right edge, a top edge and a bottom edge;   a base frame interposed between said front and back surfaces, said frame terminating along a periphery of said top edge and being positioned so as to form a gap between each of the left and right edges;   one or more traction members positioned on the base member, said traction members being configured to prevent lateral and vertical movement of the lounger inside a tub;   a top member having a front surface that includes a concave portion forming a headrest, a back surface, a left edge, a right edge, a top edge and a bottom edge;   a top frame interposed between said front and back surfaces of the top member, said top frame terminating along a periphery of the bottom edge of the top member and being positioned so as to form a gap between each of the left and right edges of said top member;   a waterproof hinge section connected to each of said top and bottom frames, said hinge section being configured to facilitate pivotal movement between the base member and the top member; and   an entertainment unit having at least one speaker and an input/output device, said entertainment unit being positioned within the headrest,   wherein each of said top member and base member are constructed from a waterproof material configured to bend.   
     
     
         16 . The submersible bath lounger of  claim 15 , wherein said input/output device is configured to wirelessly communicate with an external entertainment console.
