Novel Pump-Fed Mechanical Back Brush

Abstract

A hand held back brush has a rotating brush head and a reservoir for liquid soap from which the soap is actively vectored towards the skin via an active pumping mechanism.

1 . A hand held back brush with rotating brush bristles which relies on a pump to dispense liquid soap through the rotating brush to the bathers skin. 
     
     
         2 . The claim in  1  where the pump is a gear pump. 
     
     
         3 . The claim in  1  where the pump is a screw pump. 
     
     
         3 . The claim in  1  where the pump is a positive displacement pump. 
     
     
         4 . The claim in  1  where the pump is an impulse pump. 
     
     
         5 . The claim in  1  where the pump is a velocity pump. 
     
     
         6 . The claim in  1  where the pump is a multi-phase pump. 
     
     
         7 . The claim in  1  where the pump is a compression cylinder. 
     
     
         8 . The claim in  1  where the unit is made of a single body of thin walled plastic with an extended handle and a head inserted and bonded to the body with perforations and geometry made to dispense and spread a product on a subjects body using a pump feeding mechanism. 
     
     
         9 . The claim in  1  where device made to distribute a product using motion or vibration from a wind-up mechanical or non-electronic motor. 
     
     
         10 . The claim in  1  where a single or short term use device with a molded plastic handle consisting of an inner geometry and an outer geometry that can be quickly and easily adjustable to create a handle feature that can adjust lengthwise to accommodate different sizes of users or adjust to reach different areas on the body of the same user. 
     
     
         11 . A short term or single use device already claimed that uses a combination of gravity and a rolling ball to distribute product on the body of a subject. 
     
     
         12 . A short term or single use device already claimed that uses a combination of gravity and a injection molded bristles or panels made of a semi-flexible polymer to distribute product on the body of a subject. 
     
     
         13 . A timer incorporated into the already claimed device to measure out usage. 
     
     
         14 . A volumetric method of metering out a set quantity of product to the patient. 
     
     
         15 . The claim in  1  with a method of placing an insert with a specific and adjustable geometry to allow a pharmaceutical or other trained technician the ability to adjust the amount of product dispensed. 
     
     
         16 . The claim in  1  where a strap around the device to keep it attached to the wrist of the user. 
     
     
         17 . A cartridge system allowing medication or product to be added into the claimed device. 
     
     
         18 . The claim in  1  where the device is disposable and comes pre-loaded with soap or creme.
