  • Patent number: 5513419
    Abstract: A Shower Curtain Rod Assembly includes a stem-to-stem, double-Y shaped shower curtain rod with an integral split-track extending along almost the entire length of its bottom surface, shower curtain clips and screw-type endcaps. The shower curtain rod is suspended between two side walls of a shower or bathtub enclosure by unscrewing the endcaps. Rubber or plastic endcap pads prevent the shower curtain rod from slipping and protect the side walls from damage from preasure mounting. Shower curtain clips include an elongated base, a stem and ring-type clamps for suspending shower curtain(s) from the shower curtain rod. The base can thereby be inserted into the split-track and rotatingly secured. Conventional shower curtain(s) can be secured using the ring-type clamps.
