Patent Application

The present invention relates to a system. More particularly, the present invention relates to a child shower system.
Showering is an important aspect of personal hygiene. For young children, it may be difficult for them to operate a shower. Due to the height of the shower head and the temperature adjustment knob in most showers, the children are unable to adjust the shower head or the adjustment knob to have a comfortable experience. If a child attempts to adjust either the shower head or the temperature knob out of reach, they could end-up severely injury themselves in the process.
Thus, it is common for the parents to assist the child in showering by adjusting both the shower head and the temperature knob according. However, a parent may have to constantly adjust both features of the shower to the child's desire. There are shower heads that may be removed from a support holder which may bring the water flow closer to the child, however it may be difficult for smaller children to operate these types of shower heads to have an effective shower. This may leave the parents opting to bathe the child in a bathtub as opposed to them operating the shower for the child.
Unfortunately, bathing has some negative consequences. First, that the child will be sitting in the still bathe water for an extended amount of time. The longer the child sits in the bath water, the more oils, dirt, and other debris accumulate therein from the child's skin. Sitting in a bathtub with such debris for an extended amount of time may result in the child suffering from a bacterial infection.
Additionally, while in the bathtub the parent must be positioned in such a way that they may reach the child to bathe them. Typically, this includes laying on the bathroom floor and extending themselves over the edge of the bathtub. It is common for a parent sitting in such a position to experience pain or cramping from being crouched down near the bathtub. Finally, most children want to begin to have some independence while in they are showering and providing them a safe way to do so will limit the concerns stated above.
In order to address these concerns, the present invention will provide users with a child shower system with a shower head and a temperature adjustment knob positioned to be in reach of a child while in the shower.
In view of the foregoing disadvantages inherent in the known types of child shower systems now present in the prior art, the present invention provides a child shower system wherein the same may be utilized for providing convenience for a user when using a child shower system.
The present system comprises a child shower system having a housing having a front surface and a rear surface, the rear surface of the housing includes one or more fasteners, a child shower attachment extending from the front surface of the housing, a water temperature adjustment knob disposed on the front surface of the housing, the water temperature adjust knob includes a plurality of identifiable settings and an actuator button, a plurality of electronic components disposed on the housing, a hose disposed on a top surface of the housing, and a shower hook-up including a pair of shower heads and a hook-up, the pair of shower heads include a first shower head and a second shower head, wherein the hook-up connects with a water line located within each of the pair of shower heads, thereby allowing the housing adapted to be removably secured to an existing shower line, and wherein the child shower attachment is affixed to an adjustable arm that moves up and down along a vertical axis.
Although the characteristic features of this invention will be particularly pointed out in the claims, the invention itself and manner in which it may be made and used may be better understood after a review of the following description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings wherein like numeral annotations are provided throughout.
