  • Washing sponge 10 A sponge that is designed to wash the body, can be implemented using a regular sponge or using a special sponge, that is built in a manner which allows optimal spreading of the soap within the sponge, for example as close as possible to its outer surroundings.
  • the sponge should also be comfortable and pleasant to use.
  • Fig. 1 illustrates a side view of one embodiment of the sponge.
  • the sponge 10 itself may take most of the space.
  • the bottle or container
  • a mechanism 30 is used to spread the liquid soap from the container into the sponge, as closely as possible to its outer surrounding, or just making the sponge soaked properly with soap, to allow its efficient use.
  • the sponge may be held by special handles 40, or may include rigid parts which can be easily grasped in the palm.
  • the one or more handles provided with the mechanism may wrap the container or bottle, may be installed in a parallel manner to the bottle, or may connect to the bottle in various other forms.
  • the container and/or sponge may be optionally disconnected from the handle.
  • the pressing mechanism and handle may have various kinds of form and/or shape.
  • a button 50 may be used in order to emit the soap.
  • the button may be part of the handle, or may be separated from the handle, as indicated in the drawing, and connected directly to the bottle and/or to the mechanism 30.
  • the button may be placed at the top, at the rear part, at either sides of the sponge or in any other location around or within the sponge.
  • the bottle may be filled using a special opening 60, through which the liquid soap is inserted whenever necessary.
  • the whole bottle may be replaced with a new one.
  • the bottle or container may have a special, unique shape to match the sponge and/or for easy grasping and/or for efficient spread of the soap.
  • the bottle may be disposable and replaced each time it rans out, or may be refilled - both implementations are possible.
  • Fig. 3 illustrates a rear view of one embodiment of the sponge.
  • the grasping handle 40 is designed to allow easy holding in the palm. Pressing the button 50 to release soap may be done easily, using one finger.
  • the button may be located anywhere on the sponge or near or at the handle, for example as indicated in Fig. 3.
  • the sponge may be used and refilled with soap by just one hand.
  • a strap may be added to clasp the palm to the sponge.
  • the handle may be smaller than the sponge and the sponge may surround the handle, so that rubbing may be done by the sides of the sponge as well.
  • the sponge may be rectangular and/or rounded and/or may possess any kind of shape.
  • the sponge may be optionally disconnected for cleaning or in order to replace it.
  • the outer surface of the sponge 13 may be made of a different material, or may include straps, in order to better keep the sponge in its original shape, and to create a rubbing effect while using the sponge.
  • the sponge may possess a varying degree of softness/hardness, depending on a user's needs and/or the desired implementation.
  • the bottle 20 may include one or more openings in order to release the soap to the sponge.
  • a mechanism for spreading the soap 30 may be optionally included or may be implemented as a part of the bottle combined with the button to release the soap and open the openings.
  • the bottle 20 may include an internal spring or may have internal pressure, which will allow releasing the soap under pressure, thus the soap may be spread more effectively. Alternately, the whole operation of the device and the pressure built-up may be based only upon the energy which is created by pressing the button.

  • the liquid soap bottle 20 may be within the grasping handle, parallel to it, or combined with the grasping handle, as shown in this figure.
  • a vacuum suction or internal pressure means may be used with the mechanism 21, in order to spread out the soap, at the required pressure, as the user presses the button 50, using a cylinder for example.
  • a soap spreading mechanism 30 is comprised of a rigid part with one or more pipes 31, which spread the soap to different parts of the sponge 10.
  • the spreading mechanism 30, may be part of the rigid holding handle and/or may be integrated with the bottle or container. It may spread the soap directly to specific area, or using several pipes to a larger area of the sponge.
  • the pipes are within a rigid part and cannot be felt while using the sponge.
  • Optional holes 11 along the sponge which are connected to the pipes 31, allow spreading the soap better in the sponge, and closer to its outer margins.
  • Fig. 5 illustrates a side view of the sponge with external handle.
  • the pressing mechanism 50 is within a separate handle 40, which can allow holding the inner part together with the container 20, without pressing the button 50, and pressing the button by the back of the palm or separately, by holding the sponge from the handle k0.
  • Filling of the container is done through a special opening 60.
  • the holes 11 at the sponge may be connected to the bottle directly, saving the need for additional pipes.
  • Fig. 6 illustrates a side view of the sponge where the whole mechanism is integrated within the sponge.
  • the sponge comprises two parts, the main part 10 which covers the button 50 and the mechanism and container 20, and another part of the sponge
  • the button may be operated by moving it downwards, thus pressing on the sponge downwards will release soap to the sponge.
  • Fig. 7 illustrates a top and a side views of a soap filling connector for the bottle at the sponge.
  • the parts 61 and 62 can be either in the state as indicated, wherein the reservoir is closed, or the part 62 is rotated, so as to open the reservoir for filling with liquid soap.
  • a square hole 63 may be used with a suitable tool, so that, when it is pressed down against spring 67, it can be rotated so as to rotate part 62 for opening the reservoir for filling.
