Abstract:

A portable bathroom accessory adapted to be detachably supported along the length of the lintel or head bar of a bath stall doorway while suspending many types of hygienic equipment such as syringe and stoma irrigation devices during use or for bathroom storage. Specifically, the invention is characterized by an inverted U-shaped hanger detachably and snugly mounted upon the head bar in a stable position, wherein one leg of the hanger serves the dual function of suspending a hygienic reservoir assembly in a partially stabilized position by limiting the swinging movement of the lower free end portion of the assembly backwardly in the direction of the other hanger leg. The hanger is further characterized by its light weight, compactness, mobility, resiliency and by its suitability for use in combination with a wide range of sizes and cross-sectional shapes of head bars, thereby enabling the user to conveniently include the hanger in his or her travel baggage with the assurance that it will fit the head bars of most bathroom stalls.
