Abstract
Seat is journalled on an annular bearing, and is centrally apertured to permit cleansing of the invalid's personal parts. The seat is journalled, as aforesaid, on a track which is movable horizontally relative to a basic frame. Accordingly, the seat can be moved from an overhung disposition relative to an edge of a bathtub, to a centered disposition in the middle of the bathrub, and the seat can be turned from an outwardly-facing disposition thereof to a disposition turned ninety degrees therefrom. Limbs fixed to the frame support the frame within a bathrub, and an outwardly-extending arm is provided to engage an edge of the bathtub to insure against the apparatus tilting due to the weight of the invalid, especially when set upon the seat in the overhung disposition.
