Abstract:
A bathing chair assembly that allows access to genital and perianal regions of a bather includes a seat. A plurality of legs is coupled to and extends substantially perpendicularly from a bottom of the seat. The legs are configured to support the seat substantially parallel to a substantially horizontal surface, positioning the seat to support the bather. A backrest that is coupled to and extends from a rear edge of the seat is configured to support a back of the bather who is positioned on the seat. A void that is centrally positioned in the seat is configured to allow a user access to the genital and perianal regions of the bather.

Claim (Index 16):
A bathing chair assembly comprising:\n a seat, the seat being substantially rectangularly shaped, the seat comprising a pair of plates, each plate extending from the rear edge to a front edge along a respective opposing side edge of the seat, the plates defining a gap positioned substantially equally distant from the opposing side edges of the seat, the void comprising the gap defined by the first plate and the second plate; a plurality of legs coupled to and extending substantially perpendicularly from a bottom of the seat wherein the legs are configured for supporting the seat substantially parallel to a substantially horizontal surface positioning the seat for supporting a bather, the plurality of legs comprising eight legs positioned singly at each corner of each of the pair of plates; a backrest coupled to and extending from a rear edge of the seat wherein the backrest is configured for supporting a back of the bather positioned on the seat; a void centrally positioned in the seat wherein the void is configured for allowing a user access to genital and perianal regions of a bather positioned on the seat; a pair of rear crossbars, each rear crossbar being coupled to and extending between the legs positioned on an associated plate proximate to the rear edge of the seat; a pair of front crossbars, each front crossbar being coupled to and extending between the legs positioned on an associated plate proximate to the front edge of the seat, one front crossbar and an associated rear crossbar extending past an associated opposing side edge of the seat; a pair of side crossbars, each side crossbar being coupled to and extending between the legs positioned on an associated plate proximate to the respective opposing side edge of the seat wherein each side crossbar, an associated rear crossbar, and an associated front crossbar define a frame to which an associated plate is coupled; a pair of first rods coupled singly to and extending perpendicularly from the one front crossbar and the associated rear crossbar extending past the associated opposing side edge of the seat; and a second rod coupled to and extending between the first rods distal from the respective plate.
