Description

Vorrichtung zum Auftragen einer Lotion, Salbe od. dgl. auf den Körper Device for applying a lotion, ointment or the like on the body
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Auftragen einer Lotion, Salbe od. dgl. auf den Körper, insbesondere den Rücken, mit einem Band, dessen Enden mit beiden Händen ergreifbar sind, um es über den Körper bzw. Rücken gleiten lassen zu können, welches Band zumindest ein Element zur temporären Aufnahme und Abgabe der Lotion, Salbe od. dgl. aufweist. Eine Vorrichtung dieser Art ist aus der AT B 401473 bekannt. Das Band dieser Vorrichtung ist zwar flexibel, aber unelastisch und trägt als Auftragelement ein elastisches Schaumstoffkissen, das mit der aufzutragenden Lotion getränkt bzw. gefüllt werden kann und diese beim Zusammenpressen abgibt. Eine solche Vorrichtung kann nur mühsam bzw. unvollständig gereinigt werden, denn in dem schwammartigen Speicherkissen bleiben stets Rückstände zurück. Darüber hinaus ist die Vorrichtung aufwendig zu fertigen. Die US 5 035 523 zeigt eine ähnliche Vorrichtung, bei wel- eher das Schaumstoffauftragkissen mit Hilfe eines Klettverschlusses lösbar am Band befestigt ist, um es zu Reinigungszwecken abnehmen zu können. Die US 2002/005873 A zeigt eine weitere Vorrichtung, bei der das gesamte Band aus absorbierendem, elastischem Material gefertigt ist, wie offenzelligem Kunststoffschäum, saugfähigem Windelmaterial usw., wobei die Vorrichtung Handgriffe mit einer Aufrollautomatik für das Band aufweist. Auch diese bekannten Vorrichtungen haben die oben genannten Nachteile. Die Erfindung setzt sich zum Ziel, eine Vorrichtung zum Auftragen einer Lotion, Salbe od. dgl. auf den Körper zu schaffen, welche nach Gebrauch einfach und vollständig gereinigt werden kann, sodaß eine hygienische Wiederverwendung möglich ist. Darüber hinaus soll die Vorrichtung einfacher aufgebaut und kostengünstiger gefertigt werden können als die bekannten Konstruktionen. Diese Ziele werden bei einer Vorrichtung der einleitend genannten Art erfindungsgemäß dadurch erreicht, daß das Band zumindest abschnittsweise aus elastischem Kunststoffmaterial gefertigt und das genannte Element durch eine Gruppe von Querrillen in einer Oberfläche des elastischen Kunststoff- materials gebildet ist. Auf diese Weise wird eine neue Art von Auftragelement geschaffen, dessen Auftragfunktion auf der Auseinanderbewegung der Querrillen beim Auseinanderziehen des Bandes beruht. Nach Gebrauch können die Querrillen durch Abwischen oder Abspülen einfach und vollständig gereinigt werden, sodaß eine hygienische Wiederverwendung gewährleistet ist. Darüber hinaus ist das Auftragelement mit Hilfe desselben technologischen Schrittes herstellbar, mit dem auch das Band gefertigt werden kann, z.B. durch Gießen, Spritzgießen, Pressen, Prägen, Umformen usw., was die Fertigung wesentlich vereinfacht. Eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform der Erfindung zeichnet sich dadurch aus, daß das Band mitsamt dem genannten Element einstückig aus elastischem Kunststoffmaterial gefertigt ist. Dadurch kann die gesamte Vorrichtung in einem einzigen Ferti- gungsschritt, z.B. durch Spritzguß, hergestellt werden. Gemäß einem weiteren bevorzugten Merkmal der Erfindung wird vorgesehen, daß die Querrillen durch eine ziehharmonikaartige Ausformung eines Abschnittes des Bandes gebildet sind. Mit einer solchen ziehharmonikaartige Gestaltung kann das Austreten der Lotion, Salbe od. dgl. aus den Querrillen zwecks Auftrags auf den Körper durch proportionales Auseinanderziehen des Bandes dosiert werden. Eine weitere bevorzugte Ausführungsform der Erfindung zeichnet sich dadurch aus, daß die Breite des Bandes zu seinen Enden hin abnimmt. Dadurch können die Enden des Bandes leichter ergriffen werden, ohne es in seinem Mittelabschnitt zu verwerfen und seine Anlage am Körper zu beeinträchtigen. Aus demselben Grund ist es auch günstig, wenn bevorzugt die Enden des Bandes zu verdickten Kugeln ausgeformt und/oder die Enden des Bandes mit einer Riffelung versehen sind. Aus Sicherheitsgründen ist es besonders vorteilhaft, wenn die Ränder des Bandes abgerundet sind. Dadurch können Hautverletzungen beim Gleitenlassen des Bandes über den Körper sicher vermieden werden. Die Vorrichtung der Erfindung kann an sich aus beliebigen elastischen, hautfreundlichen und widerstandsfähigen Materialien hergestellt werden. Besonders günstig ist es, wenn das elastische Kunststoffmaterial Kautschuk oder Gummi, bevorzugt Latex, ist, weil diese Materialen besonders hautfreundlich sind. Die Erfindung wird nachstehend anhand eines in den Zeichnungen dargestellten Ausführungsbeispieles näher erläutert. In den Zeichnungen zeigt: Fig. 1 die Vorrichtung der Erfindung in einer Draufsicht, Fig. 2 in einer Seitenansicht und Fig. 3 das Detail III von Fig. 2 in vergrößertem Maßstab. In den Fig. 1 und 2 ist eine Vorrichtung 1 zum Auftragen einer Lotion, Salbe od. dgl. auf den Körper eines Benutzers, insbesondere dessen Rücken (nicht gezeigt) dargestellt. Die Vorrichtung 1 umfaßt ein Band 2, dessen Enden 3 mit beiden Hän- den ergriffen werden können, um es in an sich bekannter Weise über den Körper bzw. Rücken gleiten lassen zu können. In seinem Mittelabschnitt weist das Band 2 ein Element 4 zur temporären Aufnahme und Abgabe der Lotion, Salbe od. dgl. auf. Alternativ könnten auch mehrere Elemente 4 in beliebigen Abschnitten des Bandes 2 vorgesehen sein oder ein Element 4 erstreckt sich über die gesamte Länge des Bandes 2. Das Element 4 ist in Fig. 3 ausführlich gezeigt und umfaßt eine Gruppe von Querrillen 5 in der Oberfläche des Bandes 2. Bevorzugt sind beide Oberflächen des Bandes 2 mit Querrillen 5 versehen, wie in Fig. 3 gezeigt, obwohl dies nicht zwingend ist; im einfachsten Fall genügen Querrillen 5 in einer Bandoberfläche. Die Querrillen 5 der beiden Bandoberflächen können auf gleicher Höhe angeordnet sein oder bevorzugt versetzt, wie in Fig. 3 gezeigt, sodaß sich im Mittelabschnitt des Bandes 2 bzw. im Bereich des Elementes 4 eine ziehharmonikaartige Ausformung des Bandes 2 ergibt. Die Breite des Bandes 2 nimmt zu seinen Enden 3 hin ab, wobei die Enden 3 zu verdickten Kugeln 6 ausgebildet sind. Die Enden 3, mit oder ohne Kugeln 6, können mit einer oberflächlichen Riffelung versehen sein (nicht gezeigt) , welche das rutschfeste Ergreifen der Enden 3 erleichtert. Alternativ könnten die Enden 3 mit Handgriffen, Laschen, Ösen usw. zum leichteren Ergreifen ausgebildet oder versehen sein. Alle Ränder, Kanten und Ecken der Vorrichtung 1, so insbesondere auch die Seitenkanten 7, sind bevorzugt abgerundet. Die gesamte Vorrichtung 1 ist einstückig aus elastischem Kunst- stoffmaterial gefertigt, insbesondere hautfreundlichem und widerstandsfähigem Material, wie Kautschuk oder Gummi, besonders bevorzugt Latex oder latexähnlichen Kautschukverbindungen. Auf diese Weise kann die Vorrichtung 1 in einem Schritt durch Gießen, Spritzgießen, Prägen, Pressen oder Umformen usw. hergestellt werden. Das Element 4 wird dabei einstückig mit dem BandThe present invention relates to a device for applying a lotion, ointment or the like to the body, in particular the back, with a band, the ends of which can be gripped with both hands in order to be able to slide it over the body or back, which Band has at least one element for the temporary absorption and delivery of the lotion, ointment or the like. A device of this type is known from AT B 401473. The band of this device is flexible, but inelastic and carries as the application element an elastic foam cushion which can be soaked or filled with the lotion to be applied and which is released when pressed together. Such a device can only be cleaned laboriously or incompletely, because residues always remain in the sponge-like storage cushion. In addition, the device is expensive to manufacture. US Pat. No. 5,035,523 shows a similar device in which the foam application pad is detachably attached to the belt with the aid of a Velcro fastener in order to be able to remove it for cleaning purposes. US 2002/005873 A shows a further device in which the entire band is made of absorbent, elastic material, such as open-cell plastic foam, absorbent diaper material, etc., the device having handles with an automatic roll-up device for the band. These known devices also have the disadvantages mentioned above. The invention aims to provide a device for applying a lotion, ointment or the like to the body, which can be easily and completely cleaned after use, so that hygienic reuse is possible. In addition, the device should be of simpler construction and more economical to manufacture than the known constructions. These goals are achieved with a device of The type mentioned in the introduction is achieved according to the invention in that the band is made at least in sections from elastic plastic material and said element is formed by a group of transverse grooves in a surface of the elastic plastic material. In this way, a new type of application element is created, the application function of which is based on the movement of the transverse grooves when the tape is pulled apart. After use, the cross grooves can be easily and completely cleaned by wiping or rinsing, so that hygienic reuse is guaranteed. In addition, the application element can be produced using the same technological step with which the strip can also be produced, for example by casting, injection molding, pressing, embossing, shaping, etc., which considerably simplifies production. A preferred embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the band together with the said element is made in one piece from elastic plastic material. As a result, the entire device can be manufactured in a single production step, for example by injection molding. According to a further preferred feature of the invention, it is provided that the transverse grooves are formed by an accordion-like formation of a section of the band. With such an accordion-like design, the lotion, ointment or the like can be metered out of the transverse grooves for the purpose of application to the body by proportionally pulling the tape apart. Another preferred embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the width of the band decreases towards its ends. This makes it easier to grasp the ends of the band without discarding its middle section and affecting its abutment on the body. For the same reason, it is also advantageous if the ends of the band are preferably formed into thickened balls and / or the ends of the band are provided with corrugations. For safety reasons, it is particularly advantageous if the edges of the band are rounded. This safely prevents skin injuries when the tape is slid over the body. The device of the invention can be manufactured per se from any elastic, skin-friendly and resistant materials. It is particularly favorable if the elastic plastic material is rubber or rubber, preferably latex, because these materials are particularly kind to the skin. The invention is explained below with reference to an embodiment shown in the drawings. In the drawings: FIG. 1 shows the device of the invention in a plan view, FIG. 2 in a side view and FIG. 3 shows detail III from FIG. 2 on an enlarged scale. 1 and 2 show a device 1 for applying a lotion, ointment or the like to the body of a user, in particular his back (not shown). The device 1 comprises a band 2, the ends 3 of which can be gripped with both hands in order to be able to slide it over the body or back in a manner known per se. In its central section, the band 2 has an element 4 for temporarily receiving and dispensing the lotion, ointment or the like. Alternatively, several elements 4 could also be provided in any section of the band 2 or one element 4 extends over the entire length of the band 2. The element 4 is shown in detail in FIG. 3 and comprises a group of transverse grooves 5 in the surface of the band 2. Both surfaces of the band 2 are preferably provided with transverse grooves 5, as shown in FIG. 3, although this is not mandatory; in the simplest case, transverse grooves 5 in a band surface are sufficient. The transverse grooves 5 of the two belt surfaces can be arranged at the same height or preferably offset, as shown in FIG. 3, so that in the central section of the belt 2 or in the area of the element 4 there is an accordion-like shape of the band 2. The width of the band 2 decreases towards its ends 3, the ends 3 being formed into thickened balls 6. The ends 3, with or without balls 6, can be provided with a superficial corrugation (not shown), which facilitates the non-slip gripping of the ends 3. Alternatively, the ends 3 could be designed or provided with handles, tabs, eyelets, etc. for easier gripping. All edges, edges and corners of the device 1, in particular also the side edges 7, are preferably rounded. The entire device 1 is made in one piece from elastic plastic material, in particular skin-friendly and resistant material, such as rubber or rubber, particularly preferably latex or latex-like rubber compounds. In this way, the device 1 can be produced in one step by casting, injection molding, embossing, pressing or forming, etc. The element 4 is in one piece with the tape
2 mitgeformt. Alternativ könnte auch nur das Element 4 aus elastischem Kunststoffmaterial gefertigt sein und die an dieses anschließenden Abschnitte des Bandes 2 aus flexiblem, jedoch unelastischem Material bestehen. Die Funktionsweise der Vorrichtung ist wie folgt. Vor Ge- brauch wird die aufzutragende Lotion, Salbe od. dgl. in die Rillen 5 des Elementes 4 eingebracht, wie in Fig. 3 bei 8 angedeutet. Die Vorrichtung 1 wird nun mit beiden Händen an den Enden2 molded. Alternatively, only the element 4 could also be made of elastic plastic material and the sections of the band 2 adjoining it could be made of flexible but inelastic material. The device operates as follows. Before use, the lotion, ointment or the like to be applied is introduced into the grooves 5 of the element 4, as indicated at 8 in FIG. 3. The device 1 is now with both hands at the ends
3 ergriffen und z.B. über den Rücken gezogen und über diesen hin- und herbewegt, wobei gleichzeitig das Band 2 etwas gedehnt wird. Durch das Dehnen des Bandes 2 und des Elementes 4 verringert sich die Tiefe der Rillen 5, sodaß die Lotion, Salbe od. dgl. an der Oberfläche des Elementes 4 austritt und auf den Körper abgegeben bzw. aufgetragen wird. Durch Variieren der Dehnung des Bandes 2 bzw. des Elementes 4 kann das Auftragen dosiert werden. Nach Gebrauch kann die gesamte Vorrichtung 1, insbesondere das Element 4, z.B. unter einem Wasserstrahl abgespült oder einfach mit einem Tuch abgewischt werden. Die Vorrichtung der Erfindung eignet sich zum Auftragen jeder beliebigen Art von Lotion, Salbe od. dgl. mit ausreichender Zähigkeit und/oder ausreichendem Haftvermögen, welche eine temporäre Verankerung zwischen den Rillen 5 gestattet. Beispielhafte Anwendungsgebiete sind das Auftragen von Sonnenmilch, pflegenden Cremes, Heilsalben od. dgl. 3 gripped and pulled over the back, for example, and moved back and forth, while at the same time the band 2 is slightly stretched. By stretching the band 2 and the element 4, the depth of the grooves 5 is reduced, so that the lotion, ointment or the like escapes from the surface of the element 4 and is applied to the body. The application can be metered by varying the stretch of the band 2 or of the element 4. After use, the entire device 1, in particular the element 4, can, for example, be rinsed off under a water jet or simply wiped off with a cloth. The device of the invention is suitable for applying any type of lotion, ointment or the like with sufficient toughness and / or sufficient adhesion, which permits temporary anchoring between the grooves 5. Exemplary areas of application are the application of sun milk, nourishing creams, healing ointments or the like.
