Abstract: A shower cabinet having an entrance opening which is at least partially closed by a pivotable screen (6) made of a relatively rigid material, e.g. toughened glass. The invention deals with the problem of providing a shower cabinet that is equipped with auxiliary devices for assisting handicapped persons without detracting from the use of the cabinet as a conventional shower cabinet. This is achieved in accordance with the invention in that the screen (6) includes a stiffening or reinforcement strip (7) which is arranged along the vertical center line of the screen and the respective ends of which strip are journalled for rotation in the bottom part and the top part of that cabinet wall (2) which includes the entrance opening, and in that a raisable and lowerable seat (8) is pivotally mounted on the strip.

Abstract: A screen wall of a shower space comprises a wall section in the form of a screen which is pivoted about its vertical center line. The screen (2) is provided on one side with bow-shaped bars (8) for hanging articles for drying and can be rotated at least 180.degree. about its vertical center line. The flat side of the screen can thus face the shower space when it is used for showering. When articles have been hanged on the bars (8) for drying, the screen can be swung 180.degree. placing the bars and the articles inside the shower space where they can drip and are no longer visible from outside the shower space.
