Description

The technical field to which the utility model belongs.

The present utility model relates to devices for cleaning the skin, including a body made of pumice, while the body has two opposite flat sides, fastening and working, a magnetic plate is fixed on the fastening side, and can be used to cleanse the skin, mainly the heels of a person.

State of the art.

Calluses are areas of thickened skin that can appear on the hands or feet and can be caused by constant rubbing or uneven pressure, such as from improperly fitted shoes. There is a tendency for calluses to form on the bony protrusions, and as for the feet, they are most common on the heels, on the instep of the foot and on the toes.

There are a number of known methods for reducing or removing calluses, usually based on abrading, scraping, or shearing off hardened skin. In many cases, these methods can include the first step of softening the skin by soaking the skin of the feet or hands in water, or by applying some kind of softening lotion to the hardened skin. Hardened skin can be reduced in size or removed using a device with an abrasive surface, such as a pumice stone.

A device for cleaning the skin is known, including a body made of pumice, while the body has opposite two flat sides, fastening and working, a magnetic plate is fixed on the fastening side, see patent application US2007089758 (A1) - published 2007-04-26.

This device is the closest in technical essence to the claimed utility model and is taken as a prototype for the proposed utility model.

The disadvantage of this device is that it has a flat shape and it is inconvenient for them to clean rounded parts of the human body, such as the heels. The flat shape does not maximize the adherence of the rounded heel to the device, so it takes a long time to clean the heel and reduces efficiency. In addition, there is no cushioning when using the device.

Disclosure of the utility model.

Based on this observation, the present utility model is mainly intended to provide a skin cleansing device including a body made of pumice, wherein the body has two opposite flat sides, fastening and working, a magnetic plate is fixed on the fastening side, which makes it possible to at least smooth out the above disadvantage, namely, to increase the ease of use, which is the technical task of the present utility model.

To achieve this goal, the body has a recess on the working side, made with the possibility of accommodating a human heel in it, and the fastening side is connected to a plastic plate, inside which the magnetic plate is located.

Thanks to these advantageous characteristics, it becomes possible to simplify the cleaning process and speed it up, making it convenient for the user, due to the much tighter contact between the heel surfaces and the abrasive cleaning surface.

There is an advantageous embodiment of the utility model, in which the recess is rounded at its edges.

Thanks to this advantageous feature, it becomes possible to protect the user from damage from a sharp edge.

There is a possible embodiment of the utility model, in which the plastic plate has a recess for an external counter metal plate.

Thanks to this advantageous characteristic, it becomes possible to place the device tightly on a non-metallic surface (on a tile) without gaps.

There is an advantageous embodiment of the utility model, in which a plastic plate is connected to a rubber gasket located on the outside of the device.

Thanks to this advantageous characteristic, it becomes possible to shock the device during use, since the pumice stone and the metal surface of the bathroom are hard, and the plastic is soft, it allows you to smooth out the vibration of the device during use.

There is another possible embodiment of the utility model, in which the recess is made round and its height is 20-35% of the diameter, which corresponds to the heel of an adult.

Thanks to this advantageous characteristic, it becomes possible to specially adapt the device to the average size of an adult.

Finally, there is such a variant of the utility model, in which the recess is made round and its height is 10-20% of the diameter, which corresponds to the child's heel.

Thanks to this advantageous characteristic, it becomes possible to specially adapt the device to the average size of the child.

Finally, there is a variant of the utility model in which the recess has a recess along one edge of the body.

This advantageous feature makes it possible to position the heel more comfortably.

The set of essential features of the proposed utility model is unknown from the prior art for devices of a similar purpose, which allows us to conclude that the criterion of "novelty" is met for the utility model.
