Definitions

  • This device would screw into the faucet of any standard bathtub. As indicated by the enclosed sketch the device would be equipped with a 24 oz bubble bath reservoir. The control would have a rubber seal between the hot and cold-water channels for temperature control. From the controller one could program it for a digital water temperature, bath size in gallons, and bubble bath(BB) settings by oz. if desired. It is also equipped with a low bubble bath indicator. There would be a built in timer, thermostat, and flow meter to measure the temperature, time, and bath size. The device will be made of stainless steel construction to prevent risk of rust.

Abstract

The bath control device is a device that would screw onto your bath tub faucet which can be programmed to automatically run a set amount of bath water at set temperature with a set bubble bath amount(optional) every day at a set time. It will be equipped with an overflow sensor that will prevent the tub from overflowing. The bath control remote that accompany this unit will be an option to start and stop bath water anytime outside of the programmed time by a push of a button from a remote location.

Description

  • This device would screw into the faucet of any standard bathtub. As indicated by the enclosed sketch the device would be equipped with a 24 oz bubble bath reservoir. The control would have a rubber seal between the hot and cold-water channels for temperature control. From the controller one could program it for a digital water temperature, bath size in gallons, and bubble bath(BB) settings by oz. if desired. It is also equipped with a low bubble bath indicator. There would be a built in timer, thermostat, and flow meter to measure the temperature, time, and bath size. The device will be made of stainless steel construction to prevent risk of rust. With both faucets left in the full open open position after the unit installation, the bath will automatically run each day at the programmed time and temperature to the exact amount of water and bubble bath. It is also equipped with a remote control which can be used instead of the timer.
  • The unit will screw onto any standard bath faucet by FIG. 2 of the enclosed drawing. It will be fill with liquid bubble bath thru fill hole indicated by FIG. 1. The BB will be optional. The temperature, time, BB, and bath size will be set by the digital control panel indicated in FIG. 3 ; there is also a low level LED on this panel for the BB. This device will be powered by 2 AA batteries. The overflow sensor indicated by FIG. 5 will automatically shut the water off so it will never over flow if the tub is not drained prior to start of water flow.
  • The bath control device remote (FIG. 4) will be an alternative to by pass the programmed settings. The bath can be started and stopped from remote location by the push of a button at any time. It will automatically flow to programmed temperature and BB settings. It will be powered by 2 AAA batteries.
