Grand EZ-Strainer/Stopper

Abstract

A flat flexible and centrally opened drain stopper which can cover any sort of drain and can completely surround the edge of a drain passage to cease the accumulation of hair and other debris from entering a drainage entry with its flat surface or widely distributed pegs depending on the application. The GrandEZ-Strainer/Stopper is placed around the circumference of a drain opening prior to the flow of waste water within a bathroom basin such as a sink, shower, or bathtub. This device is simple, safe, durable, easy to use, and will aid in eliminating the problem of having clogged drains.

1 . The present invention is flat and flexible with an open center, that surrounds and covers the circumference of drains entrances to prevent hair and other debris from entering and clogging drain systems in a bathroom environment. 
     
     
         2 . The strainer/stopper is comprised of a 100 percent food safe silicone material that rests flush and firmly against any bathroom utility, such as a sink, bathtub, or shower. This device will not cause any harm to the person using the device or bathroom utility. 
     
     
         3 . The base of the hair strainer/stopper is a circular surface that serves as a resting place for the trapping posts or a flat surface depending on the application. The pegs are widely distributed across the base and will serve as a barrier or trapper that will collect hair and debris from the waste water. These pegs are numerous enough and off-set into three separate rows that will serve as the defense mechanism to trap the hair and debris before it attempts to enter a drain passage. 
     
     
         4 . The removal and installation of this invention is quite simple due to the flexibility of the silicon that fits easily over an existing pop-up stopper. 
     
     
         5 . The GrandEZ-Strainer/Stopper may be designated for any size bathroom utility using an existing pop-up stopper or strainer that rests inside a drain entrance.
