Traditionally, the tools used to wash the body in the bathroom include towels, nylon towels, loofahs, and pots. Blocks made of urethane sponge were known. Of these, loofah, polyurethane The tongue sponge block can be held in hand and washed, and is gentle on the skin. Cleansing hard-to-reach areas, such as the back, although it is irritating and preferred. It was inconvenient for Also, towels and nylon towels can sting the skin like loofahs. It lacked vigor and was not comfortable to hold in the hand for cleaning.

0003 On the other hand, Utility Model Publication No. 63-43993 discloses a low-foaming synthetic resin material formed into a rectangular shape. The main body is covered with a synthetic resin hard flexible net-like material that has a hard feel, and is stacked on top of each other. Put them together, glue the edges on both sides, sandwich a soap bag inside, and make a ring of any length. A cleaning tool for bathing with soap is disclosed in which strings are attached to both side edges of the main body.

0004 However, the above-mentioned soap-containing bath cleaning tools are sized to make it easy to clean the back. If the size is too large to hold in your hand, if you make it easy to hold in your hand, it will be too big to hold in your hand. , there was a problem that it was too small for cleaning the back.

[Problem that the idea aims to solve]

The inventors of the present invention completed the present invention as a result of intensive research in view of the above-mentioned problems. Its purpose is to provide moderate irritation to the skin and to stimulate the back. It is suitable for cleaning hard-to-reach areas, such as areas, and is also suitable for cleaning by hand. We provide clean bath cleaning tools.

[0006]

[Means to solve the problem] The above purpose is to develop multiple sponge blocks made of polyvinyl acetal porous material. Insert a string from the top to the bottom approximately in the center of the string, and form a ring of arbitrary length at both ends of the string. At the same time, place a sponge block at an appropriate position between the ring part of the string and the sponge block. At least one of the bath cleaners is equipped with a slidable stopper for securing the Therefore, at least one pair of opposing surfaces of each sponge block are parallel and flat. This is achieved by a bath cleaning tool characterized by a surface.

[0007] Furthermore, the above-mentioned purpose is to provide the above-mentioned bath cleaning tool with At least one pair of surfaces are parallel and flat, and the sponge blocks are compatible with each other. A bath cleaning tool characterized in that at least one pair of surfaces are surfaces that fit together. achieved by.

[0008] Each sponge block can be assembled as an integrated object by overlapping its flat surfaces. can be handled. In addition, if each sponge block has surfaces that fit together, By overlapping the mating surfaces of the screws, the integrated state is maintained with a small force. can do.

[0009] Polyvinyl acetal (hereinafter abbreviated as "PVAt")-based polyvinyl acetal used in the present invention The pores are made of PVA obtained by crosslinking polyvinyl alcohol with aldehydes. This is a porous structure made of T-based resin. In this invention, PVAt-based porous The pores of the body preferably have a continuous pore structure, and the porosity is preferably 80 to 9. 5% by volume, and preferably has an average pore diameter of 300 to 2000 microns.

0010 PVAt-based porous materials with too large average pore diameters are too irritating to the skin. If it is too small, it will lack elasticity, and if it is too small, it will be too flexible and lack stimulation. That is, By keeping the average pore diameter within the above range, it has excellent cleaning effects and moderate irritation to the skin. can be obtained.

[0011] PVAt-based porous materials are flexible and elastic when wet, but hard when dry. Becomes an embodiment. Therefore, if you want to use it as a bath cleaning tool, dry it immediately. It must be kept moist. In this invention, approximately the center of the sponge block is A hole is perforated for the string to pass through, and water can enter through this hole. A dry sponge block absorbs water from both the inside and outside, so it quickly becomes damp. Becomes moist.

0012 The stopper of this invention is attached between the ring part of the string and the sponge block, and can be used as needed. The sponge block is clamped and fixed with a stopper. Stops are usually both Both are slidable, but it is sufficient if at least one of them is slidable. Also, the spon Stops may be placed between the diblocks.
