  • Publication number: 20210137320
    Abstract: A system and method for increasing the volume for showers bounded by shower curtains and/or shower curtain liners. This system uses a curved outward shower curtain liner device. This device generally comprises a foldable body, comprising a flexible, water impermeable, material configured with the body left sides and body right sides capable of reversibly folding and unfolding from a first shorter folded width to a second longer unfolded width. The shower curtain liner body further comprises a plurality of rigid or semi-rigid supports disposed from top to bottom. At least some of these supports are configured to be capable of assuming a curved state. In this curved state, portions of the support in between the support top and bottom assume a curvature with a displacement of at least six inches, thus causing the shower curtain liner to take a curved state, effectively increasing the volume of the shower.

  • Publication number: 20180344099
    Abstract: A curved outward shower curtain liner includes a body having opposing side ends, an upper end and a lower end opposing the upper end. The body for the horizontal model/version can vary in thickness and be made from various usually flexible and/or foldable materials between the side ends. The body for the horizontal model/version is configured for opening from either side to side toward either side collapsing into a bunch when a force is applied onto either end toward the other end. The lower end for the horizontal model/version is configured for substantially remaining in place without response to vertical forces. The body for the vertical model/version can vary in thickness and be made from various usually flexible and/or foldable materials between the upper and lower end. The body for the vertical model/version is configured for opening from the lower end toward the upper end collapsing into a bunch/folding (like accordion window blinds) when a force is applied onto either end toward the other end.
