Back scrubber

Abstract

Implementations of a back scrubber are provided. The back scrubber may be used to scratch, scrub, wash, apply moisturizer, and/or massage a user's back or a portion thereof. In some implementations, the back scrubber comprises a top surface, a bottom surface, a front surface, side surfaces, and a back surface. In some implementations, a cover may be used in conjunction with the back scrubber to provide a washing and/or scrubbing surface. In some implementations, the front surface may be contoured based on the anatomy of a human back. In some implementations, a rib may be located on the front surface of the back scrubber. In this way, a user may be able to better scrub the small of the back and/or other adjacent surfaces. In some implementations, the back scrubber may be used with a mount. The mount may be used to secure the back scrubber to a suitable surface.

1 . A back scrubber comprising:
 a top surface, a bottom surface, a front surface having a rib thereon, a first side surface, a second side surface, and a back surface;   wherein the front surface is contoured to make contact with a human back.   
     
     
         2 . The back scrubber of  claim 1  wherein the front surface has an S-shaped contour. 
     
     
         3 . The back scrubber of  claim 1  wherein the front surface of the back scrubber has an upper portion, a middle portion, and a lower portion, wherein the front surface is configured so that the upper portion makes contact with a user's shoulders and the lower portion makes contact with the small of the user's back during use. 
     
     
         4 . The back scrubber of  claim 1  wherein the rib extends from the bottom surface along at least a portion of the front surface of the back scrubber. 
     
     
         5 . The back scrubber of  claim 1  wherein the rib has a first end and a second end, at least one end of the rib is tapered. 
     
     
         6 . The back scrubber of  claim 1  further comprising a cover configured to overlay at least the front surface and the rib of the back scrubber. 
     
     
         7 . The back scrubber of  claim 1  further comprising a cover configured to fit on the back scrubber, the cover having a top surface, a bottom surface, a front surface, a first side surface, and a second side surface, wherein the front surface of the cover overlays the front surface and the rib of the back scrubber. 
     
     
         8 . The back scrubber of  claim 7  wherein the cover further comprises an opening configured to receive the back scrubber therein. 
     
     
         9 . The back scrubber of  claim 8  wherein the cover further comprises a drawstring secured about the opening, the drawstring is configured to constrict the opening of the cover about the back scrubber and thereby secure the cover in place. 
     
     
         10 . The back scrubber of  claim 1  further comprising a mount having a first side and a second side, wherein the first side of the mount is configured to be removably secured to the back surface of the back scrubber and the second side of the mount is configured to be secured to a wall. 
     
     
         11 . The back scrubber of  claim 10  wherein the second side of the mount includes a plurality of suction cups thereon. 
     
     
         12 . A back scrubber comprising:
 a top surface, a bottom surface, a front surface, a first side surface, a second side surface, a back surface, and a rib extending from the bottom surface along at least a portion of the front surface;   a removable cover configured to overlay at least the front surface and the rib of the back scrubber; and   a mount having a first side and a second side, wherein the first side of the mount is configured to be removably secured to the back surface of the back scrubber and the second side of the mount is configured to be secured to a wall;   wherein the front surface of the back scrubber is contoured to make contact with a human back during use.   
     
     
         13 . The back scrubber of  claim 12  wherein the front surface of the back scrubber has an upper portion, a middle portion, and a lower portion, wherein the front surface is configured so that the upper portion makes contact with a user's shoulders and the lower portion makes contact with the small of the user's back. 
     
     
         14 . The back scrubber of  claim 12  wherein a top surface of the rib is flat. 
     
     
         15 . The back scrubber of  claim 12  wherein the cover further comprises an opening configured to receive the back scrubber therein. 
     
     
         16 . The back scrubber of  claim 15  wherein the cover further comprises a drawstring secured about the opening, the drawstring is configured to constrict the opening of the cover about the back scrubber and thereby secure the cover in place. 
     
     
         17 . The back scrubber of  claim 12  wherein the second side of the mount includes a plurality of suction cups thereon. 
     
     
         18 . A method of using the back scrubber of  claim 12 , the method comprising:
 securing the second side of the mount to a wall;   orienting the back scrubber so that the bottom surface is closest to the ground and the back surface is facing the first side of the mount; and   pressing the back surface of the back scrubber against the first side of the mount.
