ABSTRACT:
A shower bench apparatus includes a positively engagable non-tipping chair and an easily operable clamping mechanism for attaching the apparatus to the side of a bathtub. The seat of the chair includes a pair of front hook-like brackets for engaging a first rail of the bench and a pair of craddle-like brackets near the rear of said seat for engaging the second rail of the bench. Locking screws are used to positively attach the rear craddling brackets to the second rail. It is virtually impossible to tip the chair over backwards due to the positive engagement of the front hook brackets. The chair may be reversed 180.degree. and repositioned with a minimum of effort. The device is readily clampable to the edge of a bathtub by means of a clamping mechanism driven by a single, easily manipulatable knob.
