Abstract

A shelf designed to be used in a bathing setting, such as in a shower stall that includes a first section and a second section joined together to from an outer corner with an obtuse angle and an inner corner. The shelf is outfitted with one or more holes, cutouts, prongs, catches, hooks etc. to allow for items to be placed on the shelf or suspended from the shelf. The shelf is meant to be placed on the edges of the containment wall of a shower structure such that one side of the structure is on the edge of a wall that is approximately perpendicular to another side of the containment wall. Bathing articles can be suspended from the shelf, fed through the holes of the shelf or simply placed on top of the shelf.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
I claim: 
     
         1 . A shelf for use in an irregular inner corner comprising:
 a substantially flat piece of material having a first section and a second section, wherein the first section and the second section are joined together to form an outer corner having an obtuse angle.   
     
     
         2 . The shelf in  claim 1  wherein the obtuse angle is 92.0 degrees. 
     
     
         3 . The shelf of  claim 1  wherein the obtuse angle is equal to or between 91.0 degrees and 93.0 degrees. 
     
     
         4 . The shelf in  claim 1  wherein the outer corner is rounded. 
     
     
         5 . The shelf in  claim 2  wherein the outer corner is rounded. 
     
     
         6 . The shelf in  claim 3  wherein the outer corner is rounded. 
     
     
         7 . The shelf in  claim 1  wherein the first section and the second section are joined together to form an inner corner having a right angle. 
     
     
         8 . The shelf in  claim 2  wherein the first section and the second section are joined together to form an inner corner coming together at a right angle. 
     
     
         9 . The shelf in  claim 3  wherein the first section and the second section are joined together to form an inner corner coming together at a right angle. 
     
     
         10 . A shelf for use in an irregular inner corner comprising:
 a substantially flat piece of water-resistant material having a first section and a second section;   wherein the first section and the second section are joined together to form an inner corner having a right angle and an outer corner having an obtuse angle;   wherein the inner and outer corners are rounded; and   wherein at least one of the sections features at least one cutout.   
     
     
         11 . A shelf for use in a prefabricated shower having an irregular corner comprising:
 a substantially flat piece of material having a first section and a second section wherein the first section and the second section are joined together to form an outer and an inner corner, wherein the outer corner has an obtuse angle.   
     
     
         12 . The shelf in  claim 11  wherein the obtuse angle is 92.0 degrees. 
     
     
         13 . The shelf of  claim 11  wherein the obtuse angle is equal to or between 91.0 degrees and 93.0 degrees. 
     
     
         14 . The shelf in  claim 11  wherein the outer corner is rounded. 
     
     
         15 . The shelf in  claim 12  wherein the outer corner is rounded. 
     
     
         16 . The shelf in  claim 13  wherein the outer corner is rounded. 
     
     
         17 . The shelf in  claim 11  wherein the inner corner has a right angle. 
     
     
         18 . The shelf in  claim 12  wherein the inner corner has a right angle. 
     
     
         19 . The shelf in  claim 13  wherein the inner corner has a right angle.
