Abstract
A bathing tool for securing a cleaning object by a fixing object primarily uses upper and lower contacting members to secure the cleaning object, and the cleaning object is compressed to form an accommodating space, such that the fixing object can be secured into a fixed position simultaneously. Such arrangement can save the traditional process of having a hole on the cleaning object and the contacting members, and effectively enhance the effect of securing the fixing object and prevent the cleaning object from being improperly pulled and damaged.
Description
- The present invention relates to a bathing tool for securing a cleaning object by a fixing object, more particularly to a structure for effectively securing a cleaning object by a fixing object for taking baths.
- Taking a bath, soap bubbles alone is unable to efficiently remove dirt from our body. The cuticle cells attached to the surface of the skin require a bathing tool to clean our skin effectively. Furthermore, our hands produce some oil or grease, which obstructs production of bubbles. Therefore, designing bathing tools generally includes meshes, which can give smaller bubbles and efficiently uses the soap to clean our body skin.
- Present bathing tools roughly divide into meshed bath balls or body sponges. After bathing, the tools need rinsing and drying to prevent contamination. Therefore, a bathing tool usually comes with a fixing object to hold the bathing tool when taking a bath, and afterwards hang at an appropriate dry place. However, the present way of attaching to the fixing object is improper, because it is necessary to make a hole in the sponge and pass the fixing object through the hole. When taking a bath, the user generally squeezes the sponge to produce a substantial deformation, and thus may break the meshed structure near the hole damaging the sponge.
- To solve such a problem, bathing tool manufacturers usually adopt washed unwoven cloth to wrap around the body sponge. Such arrangement not only reduces the deformation of the sponge, but also improves the cotton texture by the loose lines and excellent breathability of washed unwoven cloth. However, the way of fixing it with a fixing object is yet to improve; the sponge still has a hole for the attachment. The washed unwoven cloth separating sponge from fixing object can only delay the damage to the sponge. If users (particularly children) pull the bath tool too much, the body sponge damages and the washed unwoven cloth will be torn.
- The primary objective of the present invention is to solve the aforementioned problems and eliminate the drawbacks of cited prior art. The present invention eliminates the shortfalls of passing the fixing object through the cleaning object. Upper and lower contacting members (washed unwoven cloth) combine with the cleaning object (body sponge), such that the cleaning object is compressed to form an accommodating space. The fixing object can be secured into position simultaneously to enhance the effect of securing the fixing object, and prevent the cleaning object from being pulled and damaged improperly.
- The details and technical contents of this invention will be described together with the following figures:
-
FIG. 1 is a perspective diagram of the appearance of the present invention. -
FIG. 2 is an illustrative diagram of the fixing object encompassing the cleaning object according to the present invention. -
FIG. 3 is an illustrative diagram of the upper and lower contacting members being combined together according to the present invention. -
FIG. 4 is an illustrative diagram of combined structure of the present invention. -
FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional diagram of the position 5-5 as shown inFIG. 4 . - Please refer to
FIG. 1 for the illustrative diagram of the disassembled parts of the structure of the present invention. In the figure, thebathing tool 10 of the present invention comprises acleaning object 11, afixing object 12 coupled to thecleaning object 11, upper and lower contactingmembers cleaning object 11. Thecleaning object 11 could be a general elastically compressible body sponge; thefixing object 12 could be a rope; and the upper and lower contactingmembers - Refer to
FIG. 2 . In accordance with this invention, thefixing object 12 surrounds the exterior of thecleaning object 11, and preferably surrounds thefixing object 12 at the middle. Then, the upper andlower contact members FIG. 3 . Thermal compression technology is adopted for fixing the joint. Thecleaning object 11 is compressed during the connecting process of the upper and lower contactingmembers cleaning object 11 compresses to fit theaccommodating space 111 and surrounds thefixing object 12, such that thefixing object 12 can be securely coupled into theaccommodating space 111 as shown inFIG. 5 . - Please refer to
FIG. 4 forbathing tool 10 assembly. Since thefixing object 12 is combined with thecleaning object 11 by encompassing thecleaning object 11, the connecting surface is larger than the traditional hole thus giving a more secure connection. Theaccommodating space 111 produced by thecleaning object 11 during compression further aids connection and will not damage the integrity of thecleaning object 11. Therefore, unlike the traditional improper way of exerting force through a hole, the present invention will not damage thecleaning object 11. The upper and lower contactingmembers fixing object 12 through the combining process; when thefixing object 12 is pulled, the upper and lower contactingmembers members - While the present invention has been described in connection with what is considered the most practical and preferred embodiment, it is understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments but is intended to cover various arrangements included within the spirit and scope of the broadest interpretation and equivalent arrangements.
