ABSTRACT:
A shower curtain deflector can be produced economically and installed easily without assembly. The deflector is of a simple design that attaches rotably to the shower curtain rod with an elongated portion which pushes the shower curtain away from the user due to counterweighted portion which hangs on the tub side of the shower curtain. Because the device hangs directly from the shower curtain support rod it is simple to install, does not interfere with a user's ability to get into the shower and leave the tub quickly, and does not pose a danger should the user fall against the curtain or have to push his/her way out through the curtain. A user only need use two units to effectively restrain the shower curtain. Because the device is small and simple, it is inexpensive and easy to manufacture and package.
