Abstract:
Bath tubs have been around for many hundreds of years, however the bath tub & shower combination not as long. The bath and shower combination has its conveniences, it gives the user a choice; the choice of just taking a tub bath, a shower or both. However, if the choice entails taking a shower, the results could means water on bathroom floor. Water on the floor presents a safety hazard that the elderly and very young find difficult to negotiate. Therefore there is a need to prevent water from exiting the bath tub and shower enclosure. What is new about this device or this tub & shower modification is its ability to keep bathroom floor dry, during the bathing process. It does this by redirecting the water back into the tub's own drainage system through a combination usage of shower curtains, water shields and a modified drainage system.

Claim (Index 3):
I am claiming that the modified bath tub and shower system will prevent water from falling onto the floor from the bathing process by capturing and redirecting the water to the tub's own drainage system, where shower curtains block and directs splashing and spilled downward into a trough partially created by a four inch high shield which also serves to keep the bottom end of curtains immobilized//\n the captured water accumulates in a housing area embedded within the side of the tub, where it would be drained off by way of the trough into a drain hole made by penetrating the bed of the trough near the front of the tub// the water is drained from the trough to the top portion of the tub's modified trap, by way of a drain line and the movement of the water through the system would be propelled by the force of gravity// the modified trap is so, because it is designed and constructed in a way that allows the drain hose to be attached, which in turn allows the water to exit the system through the tub's own drainage line.
