Splash guard apparatus for shower curtains

摘要

A splash guard apparatus for a shower curtain includes a base member, a clamping wall member connected to the base member, a movable connection assembly connected to the base member, and a clamp assembly connected to the movable connection assembly. The clamp assembly includes a connection portion connected to the movable connection assembly and includes a damping portion connected to the connection portion at a juncture portion. The base member has a length and a width, and the length is substantially greater than the width. A quantity of adhesive material may be located on a back side of the base member for connecting the base member to a wall. In one embodiment, a threaded bolt is connected to the base member, and a helical spring is mounted on the threaded bolt. In another embodiment, a hinge assembly is connected between the base member and the clamp assembly. With another embodiment, a first spring retention portion is connected to the base member; a second spring retention portion is connected to the connection portion of the damp assembly; and a helical spring is connected between the first spring retention portion and the second spring retention portion. With another embodiment, a flat spring is connected to the base member and is located between the base member and the connection portion of the clamp assembly. Each spring provides a bias force for clamping the damping portion of the damp assembly against the clamping wall member.
