Definitions

  • This invention relates to an apparatus for the application of tanning compositions to a person, and more particularly, to an apparatus adapted for use in a home or salon for the spray application of sunless tanning compositions to the human body and having an attached dressing room.
  • tanning booths With respect to sunless tanning booths, they apply a tanning fluid to the user, which may take as long as two to four minutes to dry. In such situations, it is desirable for the tanning fluid to dry completely before the user dresses, in order to keep the application even.
  • the customer shouldn't have to remain in the sunless tanning booth while the tanning fluid dries, both because it is inconvenient for them, and because it increases the time a single customer needs a single sunless tanning booth, thereby reducing the number of sessions that can be sold per day per booth.
  • tanning booths are used by salons or other commercial settings which sell "sessions" to consumers. If such salons wish to permit their customers to undress before using a tanning booth, they typically provide private facilities.
  • One way such facilities are provided is by placing the tanning booth within a larger enclosed area allowing room for the customer to undress and dress.
  • this arrangement limits access to the booth since typically only one customer at a time is permitted.
  • this arrangement may require substantially more space than is actually required for the customer to comfortably undress and store their things while using the tanning booth. The additional space required for such facilities may substantially increase overhead costs.
  • An alternate arrangement is to provide multiple changing rooms for undressing and dressing at a distance separate from the booth.
  • the tanning booth is provided in a separate private area.
  • the user must travel from a dressing room to the location of the booth.
  • the user typically wears a robe, towel, sandals or similar temporary body and/or foot covering.
  • the user Before using the booth, the user must then still enter the private booth area and disrobe. After use, the user must then re-robe and travel back to the changing room before dressing.
  • This arrangement reduces the time each user spends alone in the booth area, but requires additional changing #179320 3 areas and the user's discomfort of traveling in potentially public areas while only partially clad.
  • the present invention addresses these and other problems associated with providing private facilities for customers of sunless tanning booths.
  • a first embodiment apparatus for applying a sunless tanning composition to a human comprises a booth, a coating sprayer, and a dressing room.
  • the booth is suitable for containing a user, and the coating sprayer is mounted within the booth and contains a sunless tanning composition including a sunless tanning agent for spraying at least portions of the user.
  • the dressing room is attached to the booth and has an ingress to the booth.
  • a second embodiment comprises a dressing room attachable to a booth for spray applying a sunless tanning composition to a human user.
  • the dressing room comprises a privacy enclosure; a means for allowing a user to transfer from the privacy enclosure to a booth in privacy; and, a means for allowing a user to exit from the privacy enclosure into the surrounding environment.
  • Certain other embodiments include a heater and a blower for providing more rapid and even drying of tanning solution. Certain embodiments include a seat, a towel rack, a shelf, a clothing hook, a shoe rack, or some combination of these, in order to provide for convenient dressing and undressing.
  • the booth features three or more active spray nozzles on an arm with none of the active spray nozzles oriented to spray in a direction substantially toward any other active spray nozzle, or a foot rinser mounted near the bottom of the booth, or both.
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view of a preferred embodiment of the present invention with a combined sunless tanning booth and dressing booth.
  • Figure 2 is a right side elevation of a preferred embodiment combined sunless tanning booth and dressing booth according to the present invention.
  • Figure 3 is a left side elevation of a preferred embodiment combined sunless tanning booth and dressing booth according to the present invention.
  • Figure 4 is a front elevation of a preferred embodiment combined sunless tanning booth and dressing booth according to the present invention.
  • Figure 5 is a rear elevation of a preferred embodiment combined sunless tanning booth and dressing booth according to the present invention.
  • Figure 6 is a top view of a preferred embodiment combined sunless tanning booth and dressing booth according to the present invention.
  • Figure 7 is a plan view of a preferred embodiment combined sunless tanning booth and dressing booth according to the present invention.
  • Figure 8 is a perspective view of an interior corner of a preferred embodiment dressing booth suitable for use in a combined sunless tanning booth and dressing booth according to the present invention.
  • Figure 9 is a perspective view of an alternative embodiment combined sunless tanning booth and dressing booth according to the present invention. #179320 6
  • a combined sunless tanning booth and attached dressing room according to the present invention provides convenient, space efficient privacy for users to dress and undress, and assists in faster drying of the tanning solution on the user, making the tanning process more convenient and efficient.
  • a combined sunless tanning booth and attached dressing room according to the present invention is convenient for use in tanning salons, health clubs, gyms, homes, etc., because it eliminates the need for dedicated rooms for each user, or for the user to travel between the tanning booth and a dressing area, wearing towels, robes, or other temporary coverings.
  • the present invention allows a free standing and self contained apparatus, making it suitable for use outdoors, for example on a beach.
  • the present invention includes a changing room attached directly to a sunless tanning booth.
  • the changing room includes a privacy enclosure and two exits.
  • One exit allows entry or exit directly to or from the tanning booth, while the second exit allows entry to or from the outside area. Movement from the changing room to the booth is allowed while maintaining the user's privacy, and the tanning booth also preferably does not provide outside visibility, in order to continue to maintain the user's privacy.
  • the changing room connects to the door of the sunless tanning booth, and encloses sufficient space for the user to step into and out of the sunless tanning booth, to close the door between the sunless tanning booth and the changing room, and to comfortably dress and undress.
  • such a changing room includes four substantially opaque walls.
  • the changing room includes three walls plus a common wall shared with the tanning booth.
  • the tanning booth wall with an entry/exit to the tanning booth serves as the forth wall and one of the entries/exits from the changing room.
  • the changing room further includes its own ceiling and/or floor separate from a surrounding ceiling or an underlying support or floor.
  • the changing room may include a non-slip treatment such as a textured floor or a non-slip carpet or tape.
  • a seat such as an integrally-molded chair or bench, to facilitate the user's comfort and safety while drying feet and changing clothes, for example, while putting on or removing shoes and/or socks.
  • the changing room may also preferably include appropriate storage space and devices, including, for example, shelves, hooks for hanging clothes, shoe racks, and towel racks.
  • the changing room may include heating and/or blowing units. These may assist any sunless tanning fluid to dry on the user's body more rapidly before the user dresses.
  • this can reduce the time needed to permit the user to complete their tanning session by as much as two to four minutes.
  • the heating and blowing units can also be used to help keep the changing room at a comfortable temperature, since the comfort range is likely to be somewhat higher for users who have undressed.
  • Figures 1 through 7 illustrate a first embodiment of the present invention with a combination sunless tanning booth and changing room, shown generally at 100.
  • the combination sunless tanning booth and changing room 100 includes a dressing booth 110 attached to a sunless tanning booth 120.
  • the changing room 100 and tanning booth 120 may be integrally formed, but are preferably attachable and detachable to facilitate assembly and transportation.
  • the walls, floor and ceiling of apparatus 100 may be constructed of any convenient material to provide privacy as well as structural stability and resistance to water or staining by the tanning composition.
  • suitable materials include, without limitation, Plexiglas®, fiberglass, shatter resistant non-transparent #179320 8 glass with metal framing, stainless steel, aluminum, plastic, plasticized or sheathed particle board and the like.
  • the tanning booth 120 includes a spray apparatus adapted to operate within the booth 120.
  • the spray apparatus is connected to a suitable supply to provide a sunless tanning agent to be sprayed on a user.
  • the tanning booth 120 may be of any convenient form, provided the spray apparatus is supported, and preferably such that the booth protects the surrounding area from over-spray.
  • the accompanying figures show booths with square cross-sections, although it is understood that rectangular, cylindrical, oval, or irregularly shaped booths, may also be suitable.
  • tanning booth 120 includes a foot rinse aimed at foot target areas for preventing excess spray from settling on the user's feet.
  • the floor of the booth 120 is provided with at least one drain.
  • the floor preferably includes a suitable form to provide a support surface for a user standing in the booth, while excess fluid may freely drain away from the feet of the user.
  • a suitable floor is a molded floor with recessed channels leading from all regions of the floor to at least one drain, with the channels being narrow enough and deep enough for a user to comfortably stand on the floor without waste fluid in the channels contacting the user's feet.
  • Another example of a suitable floor is a floor having a mat to support a user, with a fluid collection reservoir under the mat with at least one drain therein.
  • a tanning booth 120 in a combination sunless tanning booth and changing room 100 can include any appropriate features of a sunless tanning booth.
  • the tanning booth 120 comprises a first arm moveably mounted within the booth, with three or more active spray nozzles on the arm with none of the active spray nozzles oriented to spray in a direction substantially toward any other active spray nozzle. #179320 9
