发明名称 Swiveling seat assembly
摘要 The present invention teaches a swiveling seat assembly for use on an outer wall of a bathtub. The seat assembly has a frame, a swiveling base that is connected to the top of the frame, and a seat that is connected to the swiveling base. The swiveling seat assembly can be placed on an outer wall of a standard size bathtub. A lower footing of an outer side member of the frame contacts a ground surface, and a top member inner surface of the frame contacts an outer wall top surface of the standard size bathtub, and an inner side member inner surface contacts an outer wall inner surface of the standard size bathtub. A user can sit upon the seat assembly, and swivel 360 degrees.

主权项 1. A swiveling seat assembly (100) for safe, and comfortable use on an outer wall (520) of a bathtub, the seat assembly (100) consisting of: (a) A frame (200) consisting of an outer side member (210), a lower footing (530), an outer side member inner surface (212), a top member (220), a top member inner surface (222), a top member outer surface (224), an inner side member (230), an inner side member inner surface (232), a first inner curve (241), a second inner curve (242), and a plurality of mounting holes (500) disposed in the top member (220), wherein the inner side member (230) is shorter than the outer side member (210); (b) A swiveling base (300) consisting of a lower base (310) connected to an upper base (320) via a rotational member (330), the lower base (310) consisting of a plurality of mounting holes (500) disposed therein, the upper base (320) consisting of a plurality of mounting holes (500) disposed therein, wherein the lower base (310) is attached to the top member outer surface (224) via fasteners (510) through the plurality of mounting holes (500) disposed in the lower base (310), through the plurality of mounting holes (500) disposed on the top member outer surface (224), wherein the upper base (320) rotates 360 degrees on a horizontal plane with respect to the lower base (310) via the rotational member (330); (c) A seat (400) consisting of a top sitting surface (410) and a bottom mounting surface (420), the seat (400) consisting of a plurality of mounting holes (500) disposed on the bottom mounting surface (420), the seat (400) is connected to the upper base (320) via fasteners (510) through the plurality of mounting holes (500) disposed in the upper base (320), through the plurality of mounting holes (500) disposed on the bottom mounting surface (420);wherein a swiveling seat assembly (100) can be placed on an outer wall (520) of a standard size bathtub, wherein the lower footing (530) of the outer side member (210) nonslidably interfaces with a ground surface (540), wherein a top member inner surface (222) nonslidably interfaces with a outer wall top surface (522) of the standard size bathtub, wherein an inner side member inner surface (232) nonslidably interfaces with an outer wall inner surface (524) of the standard size bathtub, wherein a user can sit upon the seat assembly (100), wherein the user sitting on the seat assembly (100) can swivel 360 degrees,wherein the first inner curve (241) connects the outer side member inner surface (212) and the top member inner surface (222), wherein the second inner curve (242) connects the top member inner surface (222) and the inner side member inner surface (232),wherein a non-slip pad (532) begins adjacent to the lower footing (530), and is continuously disposed on and spans the outer side inner surface (212), the first inner curve (241), the top member inner surface (222), the second inner curve (242) and the inner side member surface (232), and terminates at an inner side member bottom edge (231).
