Portable vapour bath
First Claim
1. A portable vapour bath comprising a double-tapered contoured superstructure and interior having a top, bottom, front, rear and plurality of sides;
- having disposed upon its front an opening closed by a closure member said closure member being disposed at an angle to both the normal horizontal and vertical planes;
said front and rear having a top and bottom, said front and rear extending in planes substantially diverging from one another, each plane diverging from the normal vertical plane, proximate the top of the vapour bath to a position intermediate the top and bottom of said vapour bath whereat said front and rear extend in planes substantially converging towards one another and toward the vertical plane proximate the bottom of the vapour bath, said front being inclined from said top at an angle to both the normal horizontal and vertical planes away from the rear to a position intermediate its top and bottom and thereafter sloping to its bottom at an angle to both the normal horizontal and vertical planes in the opposite direction towards the rear;
the rear sloping from its top at an angle to both the normal horizontal and vertical planes towards a position intermediate its top and bottom away from the front and thereafter sloping to its bottom in the opposite direction at an angle to both the normal horizontal and vertical planes towards the front;
having disposed in its top an opening located above a seating means disposed upon the bottom of the vapour bath;
having affixed adjacent the bottom thereof a separated source of wet or dry heat, wherein said bottom portion has at least one opening to allow entry of said wet or dry heat into the vapour bath;
wherein said portable vapour bath will, because of its contoured shape, said contouring providing diverging and converging planes, ensure close contact of wet or dry heat forwardly, rearwardly, top and bottom, with the user'"'"'s body located within the bath chamber upon a seat securely fastened to the interior bottom of said superstructure.

Abstract
A portable vapor bath comprising a contoured superstructure and interior having a top, bottom, front, rear and plurality of sides; having disposed upon its front an opening closed by a closure member; said front and rear having a top and bottom said front and rear extending in planes substantially diverging from one another proximate the top of the vapor bath to a position intermediate the top and bottom of said vapor bath whereat said front and rear extend in planes substantially converging towards one another proximate the bottom of the vapor bath, said front being inclined from said top at an angle to both the normal horizontal and vertical planes away from the rear to a position intermediate its top and bottom and thereafter sloping to its bottom at an angle to both the normal horizontal and vertical planes in the opposite direction towards the rear; the rear sloping from its top at an angle to both the normal horizontal and vertical planes towards a position intermediate its top and bottom away from the front and thereafter sloping to its bottom in the opposite direction at an angle to both the normal horizontal and vertical planes, towards the front; having disposed in its top an opening located above a seating means disposed upon the bottom of the vapor bath; having affixed adjacent the bottom thereof a separate source of wet or dry heat, wherein said bottom portion has at least one opening to allow entry of said wet or dry heat into the vapor bath; wherein said portable vapor bath will, because of its contoured shape, ensure close contact of wet or dry heat forwardly, rearwardly, left and right, with the user'"'"'s body located within the bath chamber upon a seat securely fastened to the interior bottom of said superstructure.

- having disposed upon its front an opening closed by a closure member said closure member being disposed at an angle to both the normal horizontal and vertical planes;
said front and rear having a top and bottom, said front and rear extending in planes substantially diverging from one another, each plane diverging from the normal vertical plane, proximate the top of the vapour bath to a position intermediate the top and bottom of said vapour bath whereat said front and rear extend in planes substantially converging towards one another and toward the vertical plane proximate the bottom of the vapour bath, said front being inclined from said top at an angle to both the normal horizontal and vertical planes away from the rear to a position intermediate its top and bottom and thereafter sloping to its bottom at an angle to both the normal horizontal and vertical planes in the opposite direction towards the rear;
the rear sloping from its top at an angle to both the normal horizontal and vertical planes towards a position intermediate its top and bottom away from the front and thereafter sloping to its bottom in the opposite direction at an angle to both the normal horizontal and vertical planes towards the front;
having disposed in its top an opening located above a seating means disposed upon the bottom of the vapour bath;
having affixed adjacent the bottom thereof a separated source of wet or dry heat, wherein said bottom portion has at least one opening to allow entry of said wet or dry heat into the vapour bath;
wherein said portable vapour bath will, because of its contoured shape, said contouring providing diverging and converging planes, ensure close contact of wet or dry heat forwardly, rearwardly, top and bottom, with the user'"'"'s body located within the bath chamber upon a seat securely fastened to the interior bottom of said superstructure. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11)
