Definitions

  • the nets which may be utilized according to the invention possess resilient, i.e. rebounding or springy properties, and consist of hard-elastic, thermoplastic, hydrophobic material.
  • the resilient propertiesv arise from the combined effect of the flexibility and rigidity of the net. They must be such that, when the Vsoap is used, those parts of the net which project beyond the surface'of the soap, or stand away from it, immediately spring back into shape after being bent. v
  • the lathering is primarily caused in that, by the reciprocal movement of the soap solution and the resilient net of hydrophobic material in the presence of air, soap lamellae form in the meshing of the net, which turn into lather.
  • the net must be flexible and yet sutliciently rigid in order that the soap solution forming upon use of the soap may be able to form soap lamellae with the net.r
  • This surprising effect of the net may be determined, for example, on the rone hand by immersing the net partially in the soap solution and moving the soap solution by shaking, and on the other hand by moving the net up and down by the action of bending forces in the still soap solution.
  • the lathering is unexpected and surprisingly great in both cases.
  • the modification of volume of the hollow areas is caused by pressure forces acting from the exterior.
  • Covers of semirigid, plastic or tlexible material, or of rubber have also been proposed, which comprise either sharp-edged, perforated rims with projections in the form of knobs, outwardly conically broadened holes or cellular recesses in the form of ribs crossing at right-angles.
  • the rims and the knobs are intended -for massage, and the holes or recesses act as suction cups which produce lather with the application of pressure.
  • the lather is not formed by the deformation of hollow areas, but by the pressureless cooperation of air, soap solution and a thin, resilient net.
  • the object of the invention is a soap article consisting of soap and a net and being immediately ready for use, and which is characterized by that it contains at least one bar of soap permanently enclosed in a net made of a hydrophobic, thermoplastic highpolymer having a substantially smooth exterior on all sides, said net further possessing resilient properties upon use of the soap and advantageously being produced by extrusion, and having slip-fast meshes of an average Width of l to 20 millimeters.
  • nets with the required properties is known [cf. Kunststoffe, volume 51 (1961), p. 801].
  • 'Ihey may be produced from a suitable polyvinylchloride plastisol over a turning engraved roller with perpetual solidilication of the paste.
  • the nets may also be produced by sealing extruded and drawn monotls.
  • Woven nets are also suitable provided they have the required resilient properties in use and provided the meshes are slip-fast.
  • Such nets are preferably used which may be produced by direct extrusion of a monoiil made from a thermoplastic high polymer in net form. By means of contrarotating apparatus, .a direct sealing of the monotil is obtained and tubular nets or at nets are produced in or multi-'edged cross-section.
  • the meshes may be rhomboid, circular, or of any other shape [see Kunststoffsrundschau, volume (1959), p. 78; yModern Plastics,
  • Tubular nets are particularly advantageous, which are produced entirely by extrusion of a thermoplastic synthetic substance.
  • the knots are formed simultaneously with the threads by an extrusion step by means of imly constituted, hard-elastic, highmolecular products, preft erably fully synthetic high polymers such as polyvinyl chloride,.polyvinylidene chloride, polyacrylonitrile, polyvinyl formal, polycarbonates, polyamides, polyesters, and in particular polyolefins such as .polyethylene Vand. polypropylene.
  • the average diameter, or the average greatest cross-sectionaldimension, respectively, of the thread is, generally 0.1 to 2, andV preferably 0.25 to 1.2 millimeters. millimeter is employed, the resilient properties necessary for the production oflather are lost, whereas with a larger diameter than 2 millimeters the force necessary to flex the net is too great.
  • the mesh width of the net must be such with a given thread thickness that the described resilient properties are on hand when Ithe .soap enclosed therein is used.
  • the net possesses an average mesh Width of 1 to ,20, preferably 4 to 15 millimeters; It is advantageous to'use tubular-nets obtained by extrusion which preferably Vhave a rhomboid mesh form with a mesh Width of 4 to l5 millimeters, a thread thickness of 0.3 to 1 millimeter, and inv slack state an average -tube diameter of 2 to 10 centimeters.
  • Nets with rhomboid meshes have a smaller surface in slack state than'in extended state. When such a net isextended, it contracts as a result ofthe tensile stress' ⁇ perpendicular to# the longitudinal, direction.
  • the 'surfaces of the nets'used in accordancefwith the invention are smooth, that is tosay no projecting parts are present,V
  • the nets may comprise smallirounded thickenings at the crossings of the-threads, which' generally do not exceedthe double or triple of the thread rcoss-section,
  • the thermoplastic mass may furthercontain dyestuifs in order to give the net a coloured appearance.
  • soaps there come in question in particular those bars of soap which are used in the ⁇ household and which are employed for toilet use and to ⁇ clean textiles.
  • soaps are curd soap, Castile soap, ne soaps,
  • the thread of the net may have a round, oval Y steps therefor. If a thread diameter of less than 0.1
  • the soaps may contain ⁇ the usual additives, such as glycerine, super-fatting agents, scents, dyestuifs or sodium poly phosphates.
  • Synthetic soaps, so-called syndets which are composed offatty alcohol sulphate or fatty acid condensation products, also come in consideration
  • a particularly valuable improvement yin the fieldv of soap industry by means of the invention consists, in particular in the field of compositions for skin care, in that hard soaps Lather surprisingly forms much more readily with-'hard soaps than with soft soaps, that is tosayY thel reverse of the effect obtained when using soap Without a net.
  • the closing of the net is permanent, that is to say such ⁇ that it can no' longer be opened fwitho'ut taking special For instance, thepermanent closing. is effected by mechanical means, suchas by binding with threads or ties, with clips, with strong tensile force by means ⁇ of springsor rubber cbands, or-With metal clips.
  • the net is advantageously closed byV hot-sealing. 'When using mechanicaly closing means, one must namely take care that they fulfil the Vrequirement'of maintaining an over-allsmooth exterior surface,.that is tosay that they cause no .undesired rubbing and no catching.
  • the points of fusion should be as rounded as possible.y It is advantageous to enclose the soap in an endless tubular net, whereby a continuous hotsealing possible by means ofmechanical devices, if desired leaving anintermediate vportion therebetween.
  • Flat ortubular nets having kconnected net-likeperforated and non-perforated sections are also suitable' because a welded seam cam easily be performed. If sack-shaped nets are used, ⁇ Which are obtained by sealingV the one end of a tubular net, ⁇ in order that thev sealing is on the inside the sack may be ,turned inside out,'the soap inserted, and the other net endtagain appropriately closedV by sealing.
  • impressionV of a sign or a name may be performed together f with the sealing; moreover, a foil, a ring, a hook or a ilexible projection in the form of a thread, a cord or a chain, may be connected with vthey netv by sealing.
  • the projection may serve tohang up the soap enclosed in the net or to attach .the Asame to'the'faucet or the rear-wall of a Wash basin. In'.both' cases the removal of the soap is therebyy hindered.
  • the exibleprojection may also be connected with the net merely .by knotting;l
  • the soap enclosed Yinthe net is appropriatelyvhung on a hookV over the wash basin, the.' bath tub, the Wash trough or the soap dish,ipreferably yby a mesh inthe-net.
  • the Water can thereby drip off and the greasiness usually arising when keeping the soap in a dish orithe like does not occur.
  • the soap is always at hand, immediately ready vfor use,and is in a dry, hygienic and thus attractive state. T ovmeet the requirementfor immediate soaping effect, it usuallysuffices, in .particular with hard soaps, to enclose the same in a single net.
  • Thel preparatiorrof the. soap yproduct according to the invention is effected such that the: soap per se is enclosed free for'movement from the start and that this condition is not only attained with the progressive reduction in size of the bar or bars arising from use of the soap.
  • free movement it is meant that the soap or the net may easily be moved or adjusted into another position.
  • the soap is advantageously enclosed in the net such that a wedge-shaped or arcuate gusset with a length of 1 to 5 centimeters is formed.
  • the presence of projecting net parts with resilient properties, or such which stand away from the soap, as well as the free movement of the net and the soap may be considerai to be the principal causes for the increased lathering when using the soap.
  • FIG. 1a shows such a net in slack condition
  • FIG. 1b the same net extended to twice the size shown in FIG. la
  • FIG. 1c the said net extended to three times the size shown in FIG. la.
  • FIG. lb The bar of soap is preferably enclosed in the net such that the latter assumes the shape according to FIG. lb.
  • the net may alternately assume the shape illustrated in FIGS. 1a, 1b or 1c, whereby the lathering is equally promoted.
  • FIGURE 2 shows a net such as is obtained by extruding and sealing monols, in accordance with British Letters Patent No. 836,555 and 836,556. Slight thickenings are present where the threads join.
  • FIGURE 3 the soap product of the invention is shown hung up and attached.
  • 1 is a device for hanging up the soap, attached to the faucet by a loop means and having a hook 2, on which one mesh of the net is hung.
  • the soap enclosed in the net is designated by 3, the arcuate gusset by 4 and the sealing joint by 5.
  • the net is exibly attached for movement by a securing means 6 to the wall at 7.
  • the securing means is sealed with the net ends at 8.
  • FIGURE 4 a soap enclosed in the net is illustrated, a ring 9 being attached to the net by sealing.
  • the net is closed by .a welded seam 10.
  • FIGURE 5 shows three soap balls 11, permanently enclosed in a sack, the one closure 12 of which is inside the net.
  • FIGURE 6 shows an oval bar of soap 3 secured to an irremovable holder 13 in the manner usual in restaurant wash-rooms, the said holder being mounted on the wall or to any appropriate appliance present.
  • the net slipped over the bar of soap 3 is drawn together and bound fast at the upper end 14 and sealed at the lower end 15 of the bar of soap, but is sufficiently loose and movable around the fixed piece of soap that an increased lathering is obtained in accordance with the method ofthe invention.
  • lather forms with the repeated llexing of the ends of the net or with the repeated pressure against the bar of soap of the parts of the net standing away from the soap.
  • soap articles of the invention i.e. the soaps enclosed in the net
  • the soap articles of the invention may be packed in a suitable manner in paper or carboard; if desired, the packing may consist of a water-soluble foil.
  • Example 1 A rectangular toilet soap weighting about g. is enclosed in a knotless tubular net which is obtained by direct extrusion of polyethylene. (cf. FIGURE lb). Both ends of the tube are closed by hot-sealing. The average cross-section of the thread is 0.3 mm. and the average mesh size of the rhomboid meshes 5 rnm. The diameter of the tube in slack state is about 3 cm. and the weight of 1 meter of tube is 7.5 g. The net contracts perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the tube and perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the rhomboid such that the soap is. surrounded in its longitudinal axis by the net, substantially without any intermediate space. The net is somewhat longer than the soap, however, so that there is a space, i.e. a gusset of about 2 cm. at each end.
  • Example 2 To determine the lathering, 3 bases are used, each having a surface dimension of 400 cm.2:
  • a 72% olive oil soap is used having the following dimensions: 6 X 3 x 1.5 cm. This is enclosed in a tubular net in accordance'with Example 1, the net having a length of 7-8 cm. The above said bases are wetted with water, whereupon the soap enclosed in the net is moved back and forth thereon. In all cases a layer of lather immediately forms, surprisingly also on smooth surfaces, which said layer of lather covers the base.
  • the product of the invention may also be used in the cleaning of textiles with particular advantage in that it makes the use of a scrubbing board superfluous.
  • lather If a hard Castile soap is used, the net enclosing the soap for free movement therein, lather can be produced by light reciprocal movement on rounded members such as pipes or tubs, and even on edges. If a knife is moved over a spot where the net stands away from the surface ,of the soap, lather forms in a short time.
  • Example 3 A Castile soap weighing about 400 g. is used, which iS enclosed in a tubular net produced by hot-sealing a monotil of polyethylene and having small thickenings at the crossings of the threads (cf. FIGURE 2).
  • the average mesh size of the net is l0 mm.
  • the average cross-section of the thread is 0.2 mm.
  • the diameter of the tube is about l0 cm.
  • the net encloses the bar of soap loosely and its openings are mechanically permanently closed.
  • a mans shirt of a cotton fabric is wetted with water and spread out on a flat, smooth Surface.
  • the textile material is treated, in particular the cuffs and the collar, by passing the soap enclosed in the net back and forth over the same. Lather immediately forms and vin a short time the treated surface iscovered Withflather.
  • Example 4 A Castile soap weighing about 250 g. and having a total fatty acid content of 82% is enclosed in a tubular net obtained by direct extrusion of polypropylene ⁇ having an average mesh size of 12 mm., an average thread cross- ,section of-0.5 mm. and a tube diameter .of about8 cm.,
  • Example 5 The advantageous effect of enclosing bars of soap in a net is particularly evident when using hard soap and soap which does not lather readily.
  • a net. is used suchas that described in Example 1.
  • a Castile soap which Ihas been stored for a long time and having a fatty acid content of 72% is used and on the other hand a transparent glycerine containing soap.
  • a transparent glycerine containing soap In'the absence of a net, only a slowly occuring lathering is noted when Soaping textile fabrics or ones hands. If :the soap is enclosed in a net, this latter readily glides over the hard surfacev of the soap and immediately causes, contrary to all expectations, substantial amounts of lather.
