Abstract
An improved portable bathing apparatus is comprised of a generally planar platform mounted on a movable cart with a flexible tub enclosure supported on the platform by a framework that may be raised and lowered. An arrangement of articulated arms driven by a mechanical linkage operates to move the framework between the tub formed and a tub collapsed position. The linkage includes a special locking mechanism to insure that the framework will maintain the formed tub enclosure.
