Abstract
For vaginal cleaning a sponge- like cleaning head (2) is mounted to a plastic style (4). For disposable application, this can be readily impregnated with a with a cleaning agent. The handle may be a tube, through which the detergent can be pumped to -and later evacuated from- said cleaning head by means of a compressible and self resetting body, as e.g. a rubber ball ( 9 ), mounted to the end of the tube.
Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention refers to the hygienic purpose of vaginal cleaning and, more precisely, the cleaning of the inner vagina together with the sheath forecourt.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION For vaginal cleaning so far mainly small shower heads and cleaning basins like Bidets are offered. However, with the latter only the range of the sheath forecourt is reached.
Instead, particularly after a phase of the rule bleeding or after sexual intercourse, the cleaning of the inner vagina may be desired.
Furthermore, in all cases a water drain is necessary with said devices. If this is not available - e.g. on journeys - these means may not be applied.
PRIOR ART There are a great number of propositions for preventing body fluids to drip from the vagina, like sanitary napkins and a variety of tampons are known. These might prevent unpleasant appearances, but leave the question of internal hygiene and cleanliness unanswered.
On the other hand, quite a few vaginal showers or douches are known for vaginal cleaning, as in US 5.304.116 and 4.894053 and 3.817.247 and 10.967.353.
However, these devices always demand a toilet to be used or some kind of a drain during or after treatment.
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED
It therefore is the task of the present invention to find a cleaning means that works without water drain and that moreover provides a sense of cleanliness and freshness. INVENTIVE STEP
The inventive step here is to apply a cleaning means that is anatomically adapted and wherein a cleaning fluid can be pumped into a cleaning head and also retraced, so to avoid a drain.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The task of cleaning without water installation is achieved by means of a sponge-like cleaning head on top of plastic style, formed like a Tampon, the absorbent part of which is soaked with a cleaning agent.
This may be applied and consequently the cleaning head removed and both parts washed or -in particular the cleaning head- replaced. In another embodiment of this invention, the handle is a pipe, so that cleaning agent can be pumped out of a compressible end piece, e.g. a removable syringe or rubber ball , to be pressed into and later again evacuated from the cleaning head.
In a further embodiment, in addition to cleaning agents, essential oils may be added for more agreeable exhalation, whereas also perfusion-enhancing or slightly irritant substance may be administered for libidinous climax.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION & DRAWINGS
Fig. 1 demonstrates the components of said cleaning device 1 , comprising the cleaning head 2 with the outer soft sponge 10, the integrated hard sponge 11 , and a thread 3 therein for the tubular style 4, that has another thread 5 matching the former one. The tubular style 4 preferably is made of transparent plastic, carrying a handle 6 with another thread 7 thereon to match the thread-piece 8, mated to a detachable syringe rubber balloon 9.
