Abstract

A spa apparatus including a frame, a basin received in the frame, and an adjustable leg rest coupled to the frame. The adjustable leg rest is configured to slide between a first retracted position and a second extended position. The adjustable leg rest is selectively lockingly engaged by a fixation member to hold the adjustable leg rest in the desired position relative to the frame.

Claims (29)

1. An apparatus comprising:

a frame, the frame including at least one collar coupled to the frame, and at least one collar engaging member coupled to the frame, the collar engaging member having an aperture therethrough and the at least one collar extending at least partially though the collar engaging member aperture;

a basin received in the frame;

an adjustable leg rest slidably coupled to the frame, the adjustable leg rest having an elongate member coupled to a leg support, the elongate member having a longitudinal groove extending along at least a portion of the outer surface of the elongate member, the elongate member extending through and being slidably engaged with the at least one collar; and

a fixation member, the fixation member engagably engaged with at least a portion of the frame, the fixation member being engagable between a first position wherein the fixation member does not engage the elongate member and a second position wherein a free end of the fixation member engages the groove of the elongate support member.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the frame further comprises a vertical portion having a first end and a second end, a first horizontal portion coupled to the first end of the vertical portion, and a second horizontal portion coupled to the second end of the vertical portion.

3. The apparatus of claim 2 wherein the at least one collar extends through an aperture in the first horizontal portion of the frame.

4. The apparatus of claim 3 wherein the collar engaging member is coupled to the vertical portion of the frame.

5. The apparatus of claim 4 wherein the collar engaging member has a first portion and a perpendicularly disposed second portion and the at least one collar extends through an aperture in the first portion of the collar engaging member.

6. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the fixation member further comprises a handle coupled to a threaded rod.

7. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the adjustable leg rest is positionable between a first retracted position and a second extended position.

8. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the leg support has a top surface and wherein at least a portion of the top surface is concave.

9. The apparatus of claim 1 further comprising at least one cover section coupled to the frame.

10. The apparatus of claim 1 further comprising at least one wheel coupled to the frame.

11. The apparatus of claim 1 further comprising at least one stationary leg rest coupled to the frame.

12. An apparatus comprising:

a frame, the frame including at least one rod retaining portion, the rod retaining portion having a generally hollow cylindrical configuration;

a basin received in the frame;

an adjustable leg rest slidably coupled to the frame, the adjustable leg rest having an elongate member coupled to a leg support, the elongate member extending through and being slidably engaged with the at least one rod retaining portion; and

a fixation member, the fixation member coupled to the rod retaining portion and engagably engaged with at least a portion of the adjustable leg rest, the fixation member being engagable between a first position wherein the fixation member does not engage the elongate member and a second position wherein the fixation member engages the outer surface of the elongate support member.

13. The apparatus of claim 12 wherein the frame further comprises a vertical portion having a first end and a second end, a first horizontal portion coupled to the first end of the vertical portion, and a second horizontal portion coupled to the second end of the vertical portion.

14. The apparatus of claim 13 wherein the rod retaining portion further comprises a sleeve coupled to the frame between the first horizontal portion and the second horizontal portion wherein at least a portion of the sleeve extends outwardly from the first horizontal portion of the frame.

15. The apparatus of claim 14 wherein the fixation member further comprises a clamp having an upper circumferential clamp portion coupled to a lower circumferential clamp portion, the upper circumferential clamp portion having an adjustment member.

16. The apparatus of claim 15 wherein the lower circumferential clamp portion engages the outer surface of the sleeve and the upper circumferential clamp portion is engagable between a first position wherein the upper circumferential clamp portion does not engage the elongate member and a second position wherein the upper circumferential clamp portion engages the outer surface of the elongate support member.

17. The apparatus of claim 16 wherein the adjustable leg rest is positionable between a first retracted position and a second extended position.

18. The apparatus of claim 12 wherein the leg support has a top surface and wherein at least a portion of the top surface is concave.

19. The apparatus of claim 12 further comprising at least one cover section coupled to the frame.

20. The apparatus of claim 12 further comprising at least one wheel coupled to the frame.

21. The apparatus of claim 12 further comprising at least one stationary leg rest coupled to the frame.
