  • Patent number: 8122529
    Abstract: A cushioned bath lounger adapted for use in a bathtub, or spa, and positioned proximate to the back surface of the bathtub. The cushioned bath lounger presenting a resting place for the head and shoulders of a reclined bather. The lounger having first and second support rails anchored to each side of the bathtub. A flexible support member is positioned between and attached to each support rail. The flexible support member has a first chamber with a visco-elastic pad positioned within to support the bathers head. The flexible support member may also include a second chamber configured to be inflated by air. The air filled second chamber then provides gentle floatation support to the reclined bather when immersed in a bath. The flexible support of the lounger may be adjustably positioned between the support rails and locked in place. The lounger may also be configured such that the flexible support may glide freely along the support rails to provide a rocking motion to the reclined bather.

  • Patent number: 5158517
    Abstract: An exercising device is designed to exercise precisely the muscles, and groups of muscles, used in throwing a ball, such as in pitching a baseball. A simulated ball has a line fixed thereto, the line passing over a pulley, then receiving weights. The weights are designed to nest together to prevent relative movement therebetween. A bracket is fixable to an interior doorway to carry a pulley for directing the line for exercise. In exercising, one grips the simulated ball in the manner of the real ball, and exercises by moving the arm in the same manner one would throw the ball, thereby exercising exactly the same muscles and groups of muscles used in the sport represented by the simulated ball.
