Description

The The invention relates to a device for cleaning the navel.

Of the Invention has for its object to propose a device with their help to clean the navel thoroughly and gently is.

The Task is by a device with a handle, with a Haltstopp, with a stalk-shaped Element and solved with a cleaning part, wherein the stop, the stem-like Element and the cleaning part substantially in the direction of the longitudinal axis the handle are arranged one behind the other, and wherein the cleaning part so dimensioned that it is for cleaning the navel or for Cleaning the wrinkles of the belly button is appropriate. With the device according to the invention let yourself the navel thoroughly and but gently cleanse. The dimensions of the umbilical brush should be 12 cm in her Length and do not exceed 5 cm at the widest points.

The inventive umbilical brush offers the first time the possibility, Thoroughly cleanse the belly button of the human body Handling is easy, relaxed and almost intuitive. The cleaning is about it also very gentle and thorough possible.

According to preferred Embodiments of the device according to the invention is provided, that individual components form integral units. For example, e.g. the stop-stop integral part of the grab handle or the stalk-shaped element is an integral part of the grab handle. It is also envisaged that the stop and the stalk-shaped Element with the handle form an integral unit. Farther can the Haltstopp and the stalk-shaped Element form an integral unit. So it's according to one Variant of the device according to the invention provided that the individual components of the umbilical brush flow smoothly into each other or at least partially fuse together. Alternatively it will suggested that the individual components be solvable and thus interchangeable connected to each other.

A advantageous embodiment of the device according to the invention provides that the handle is dimensioned so that the device in the Use case with one hand, but preferably with two fingers one hand is operable. In principle, the handle can be any Have shape. In its dimensions, the handle should each 5 Do not exceed cm.

Farther It is proposed that the holding stop is pressure-stable and designed so is that it effectively prevents slipping of the hand in use. The holding stop can in principle have any shape. In particular, with the help of the Haltstopps an increased pressure during the Cleaning process exercised become. The stop should be in its dimensions also the Do not exceed 5 cm.

Also the stalk-shaped Element can be configured arbitrarily within wide limits. In use becomes the stalk-shaped Element with the attached cleaning part at least partially inserted into the navel, so that it can be thoroughly cleaned even in depth. The stalk-shaped Element should also be no longer than 5 cm and not wider be as 2 cm. It goes without saying that the stalk-shaped element too so short that it is largely obscured by the brush and thus visually barely visible.

Prefers it is the cleaning part to a brush or a sponge or a combination of a brush and a sponge. About that In addition, it is provided that the cleaning part is made of a material preferably made of plastic, which is suitable for personal care. The Cleaning part should not exceed 4 cm in its dimensions.

Farther beats a cheap one Development of the device according to the invention before that the device designed at least partially flexible is.

The figures 5 . 6 and 7 show in front view, in side view and in use, a preferred embodiment of the invention umbilical brush 1 ,

The umbilical brush 1 points at the upper end of the brush handle 4 a handle 2 on, which is designed in the form of a round disc of 3 cm in diameter, this disc is slightly curved inwards at the front and back, so that the fingers have a secure and pleasant grip. The handle 2 is cut off at the bottom a few millimeters wide horizontally, because here is the stop 3 orthogonal connects. The stop 3 also has the shape of a round disc of 3 cm in diameter.

Under the stop 3 is located as a round rod designed brush handle 4 5 cm in length, at the lower end of a brush 5 is attached. The brush 5 has an elliptical shape of 2.5 cm in length and 2 cm in width, but acts at the top of horizontally cut and tapered at the bottom. This shape results from the individual bristles, which are the longest in the area of the tip and the shortest at the blunt end.

All Edges are rounded and all components are inextricably linked.

The umbilical brush 1 consists of a solid plastic, the bristles of the brush 5 However, they are flexible and pleasantly soft.

For use ( 7 ) you take the umbilical brush 1 with thumb and forefinger on the handle 2 and leads the previously moistened and soaped with a little brush 5 with the help of the brush handle 4 arbitrarily deep in the belly button 6 one. Then you start this with preferably circular and / or scrubbing movements to clean, the pressure with the help of grip 2 and stop 3 can be varied.

In the figures 1 - 4 Different configurations of the umbilical brush according to the invention can be seen. In particular shows 1 different embodiments of the handle 2 , In 2 are different embodiments of the stop 3 to see. 3 shows different variants of the brush handle 4 , and in 4 are different embodiments of the brush 5 shown.
