carried by the water into the drainpipe in some embodiments the aperture will be sized so that the drain stopper can pass through its central aperture and be screwed into place fig1 a 15c illustrate one such embodiment some embodiments will be made out of material that does not rust such as stainless steel aluminum or plastic other embodiments could be made of any sort of material in some cases it might be coated so as to prevent rust or other sorts of corrosion that might occur from contact with the water and other materials that might be found within a sink or tub for example in some cases a metal device could be used that is covered with a plastic or rubber coating on it to prevent corrosion the inventive device can either be disposable or it could be designed to be removed cleaned and reinserted into the drain one advantage that some embodiments made according to the instant disclosure might have over other devices is that they can be placed in drains where they are hidden from immediate view and thus can be made to be largely unnoticeable if that is desired this is unlike most other products of this type which would be configured to be situated outside of the drain of course situating a device external to the drain means that it can potentially be dislodged by an errant foot or by other means that being said in some embodiments the support member might be sized to be larger than the drain mouth and rest atop it with legs that extend downward along the outer perimeter of the drain and the catching members extending inwardly away from the wall of the drain and toward its center in this.
