BATHTUB STOPPER COMBINED WITH TETHER BODY AND BATHTUB WITHOUT TETHER RING FOR CHAIN

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a bathtub stopper combined with a tether body floating on or in bathtub water and adapted to be easily drawn out, the tethering body with many usages, and a bathtub without a conventional tether ring for tethering a bathtub stopper for elimination of an inside projection. SOLUTION: The tether body with a floating means is connected to the bathtub stopper and floated on or in the bathtub water so as to be served as a drawing portion for drawing the stopper. The tether body may have multiuse functions such as a floating toy, a bath salt-retaining function, or may be formed of a natural wood, such as Japanese cypress, sawara cypress, pine, or Japanese cedar. Thus, the chain connecting the bathtub stopper and the bathtub is eliminated, and further, the tether ring for connecting the chain is eliminated from the bathtub for the bathtub without the inside projection.
