Abstract

A luminous flower soap is made by coupling one or more artificial flower petals, which are formed through pressing, by mixing harmless luminous paint, from which constituents noxious to the human body, such as phosphorus or zinc, have been eliminated, into a soap base.

Description

A SOAP FLOWER CONTAINING A LUMINOUS PAINT

Technical Field

[1] The present invention relates to a luminous flower soap which emits light in dark places, and more particularly, to a luminous flower soap which is made of a soap base mixed with luminous paint harmless to the human body in a mold for making an artificial flower to have the shape of a flower, so that the soap can be easily viewed in places having poor illumination or in dark places and can give out a sweet fragrance and have an aesthetic appearance, to thus render a decorative effect. Background Art

[2] As is generally known in the art, soap is made by mixing paints or dyes, capable of emitting fragrance and rendering colors, into a soap base, and forming rectangular or other shapes. Various kinds of soap, including paper soap, powdered soap, liquid soap, etc. are commercially available on the market.

[3] In a home, it is the norm that outdoor light is not introduced into a toilet. Therefore, every time it is necessary to wash the face or the hands, a light in the toilet must be repeatedly turned on, whereby power consumption is increased.

[4] Meanwhile, in the case of conventional artificial flowers, used for decorative purposes, since they are made of plastic or pieces of cloth, they cannot emit a fragrance. In order for the artificial flowers to emit a fragrance, separate capsules capable of emitting fragrance must be placed in the artificial flowers. Disclosure of Invention Technical Problem

[5] Accordingly, the present invention has been made in an effort to solve the problems occurring in the related art, and an object of the present invention is to provide a luminous flower soap which is made by mixing luminous paint, harmless to the human body, into a soap base to have the shape of a flower, so that the soap can be easily viewed in dark places and can have an aesthetic appearance to thus render a decorative effect while being capable of being used as a soap.

Technical Solution

[6] In order to achieve the above object, according to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a luminous flower soap made by mixing harmless luminous (light- accumulating) paint, from which constituents noxious to the human body, such as phosphorus or zinc, have been eliminated, into a soap base which has a usual color or is transparent, pouring the resultant mixture into a mold for making an artificial flower, pressing one or more artificial flower petals, and coupling the artificial flower petals according to size.

Advantageous Effects

[7] Thanks to the features, the luminous flower soap according to the present invention provides advantages in that, since the luminous flower soap can emit light in dark places or places having poor illumination while maintaining the function of soap, it can be used under dark circumstances without turning on a light. Also, in addition to the use as a soap, because the soap has an aesthetic appearance and emits a sweet fragrance, by variously changing the color and the kind of flower, the flower soap can be used for decorative purposes, whereby positive effects can be attained in terms of washing properties as well as interior enhancement.

Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[16] Reference will now be made in greater detail to a preferred embodiment of the invention, an example of which is illustrated in the accompanying drawings.

[17] FIG. 1 is a view illustrating a luminous flower soap according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a view illustrating the process of manufacturing the luminous flower soap shown in FIG. 1.

[18] Referring to FIG. 1, the luminous flower soap according to the present invention uses a colored soap base, which is employed when making conventional soap. The luminous flower soap according to the present invention is made by mixing luminous paint, which is harmless to the human body, into the soap base.

[19] That is to say, by pouring the melted soap base, mixed with the luminous paint, into a mold 7 for making an artificial flower and then cooling the soap base, small petals 1, intermediate petals 2 and large petals 3 are prepared. Then, by coupling the petals 1, 2 and 3 to an artificial flower support 4, the shape of a flower is formed. The size of the petals used in the luminous flower soap according to the present invention need not be limited to the small, intermediate and large sizes, as in the present embodiment, and the number of petals can be changed depending upon the kind of flower. In this regard, at least one petal can be used.

[20] The soap base employed in the present invention is not specifically limited, and the soap base employed when making a conventionally soap can be used. Depending upon the kind of flower, a soap base having a different color can be used.

[21] FIG. 2 is a view illustrating the process of manufacturing the luminous flower soap according to the present invention. A soap base 6 mixed with luminous paint is introduced into a supplier 5, and then, the melted soap base 6 is poured through a nozzle into the flower-shaped mold 7 for making a petal. Before the soap base accommodated in the mold 7 is set, a thin flower soap petal 9 is formed using a press 8. By coupling one or more flower soap petals, which are formed in this way and have different sizes, the luminous flower soap 10 according to the present invention is obtained.

Claims

[1] A luminous flower soap made by coupling one or more artificial flower petals, which are formed through pressing, by mixing harmless luminous paint, from which constituents noxious to the human body, such as phosphorus or zinc, have been eliminated, into a soap base.
