Splash Shield Patents (Class D23/307)
  • Patent number: 8096093
    Abstract: An easily-installed groutless wall tile plank backsplash system includes plural lower tile planks positioned edgewise spaced from each other in a horizontal direction of a wall in a lower plane. Plural upper tile planks have a decorative surface and edge finish, optionally three-dimensional, and are positioned edgewise spaced apart from each other in a second, upper plane. The lower and upper planks are configured such that facing inner edges of two nearest neighbor adjacent lower planks in the lower plane are covered by a single upper plank positioned over the inner edges of the adjacent lower planks in the upper plane. The planks are secured by an adhesive without mechanical fasteners, substantially reducing installation time. In order to custom fit a wall space, the spacing between adjacent upper planks and adjacent lower planks is variable. For emphasis, a lower tile plank can be a large decorative mural tile plank.

  • Patent number: 4944050
    Abstract: A combined shower splash guard member with a shower curtain holder is provided by a molded, generally triangularly-shaped, and modified, one piece body having two straight legs that intersect at a vertex of the triangle, and a third, web-like leg that extends between the free ends of said first two legs of the splash guard. Means for holding the one piece body to a mounting for the body is provided by an adhesive strip of a length to be secured to the entire outer surface of the two straight legs of the splash guard. To accommodate the departure from the desired perpendicularity of the legs of the splash guard, a gusset means is provided in the web of the splash guard which permits the web of the one-piece body to be varied from its normally intended size and shape.
