Portable hygiene device

Abstract

A personal hygiene device includes a bottle body portion configured to hold fluid, and an elongated portion, connected to the bottle body portion. In some embodiments, the elongated portion includes a brush and an orifice configured to release the fluid. In other embodiments, the elongated portion is designed to be inserted into a body cavity and does not include a brush.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A personal hygiene device comprising:
 a bottle body portion configured to hold fluid;   an elongated portion, connected to the bottle body portion, having an orifice configured to release the fluid; and   a brush disposed on the elongated portion.   
     
     
         2 . The personal hygiene device of  claim 1 , wherein brush is disposed on an outer surface of the elongated portion. 
     
     
         3 . The personal hygiene device of  claim 1 , wherein brush is disposed at a tip of the elongated portion. 
     
     
         4 . The personal hygiene device of  claim 1 , wherein the elongated portion is integrally coupled to the bottle body portion to form a single device. 
     
     
         5 . The personal hygiene device of  claim 1 , wherein the elongated portion is removeably coupled to the bottle body portion. 
     
     
         6 . The personal hygiene device of  claim 5 , further comprising a connector that connects and hermetically seals the bottle body portion to the elongated portion. 
     
     
         7 . The personal hygiene device of  claim 1 , wherein strands of the brush form a band around the elongated portion. 
     
     
         8 . The personal hygiene device of  claim 1 , wherein strands of the brush comprise one of silicon, rubber, and soft plastic. 
     
     
         9 . The personal hygiene device of  claim 1 , wherein at least a portion of the bottle body portion comprises a material that is sufficiently flexible to be squeezed in order to force out the fluid. 
     
     
         10 . The personal hygiene device of  claim 1 , wherein the orifice is disposed at a tip of the elongated portion. 
     
     
         11 . The personal hygiene device of  claim 1 , wherein the orifice is disposed along the outer surface of the elongated portion. 
     
     
         12 . The personal hygiene device of  claim 1 , wherein the elongated portion is curved around an axis of curvature perpendicular to a lateral axis of the elongated portion. 
     
     
         13 . The personal hygiene device of  claim 1 , wherein the elongated portion is bent at an angle between 30 degrees and 90 degrees. 
     
     
         14 . The personal hygiene device of  claim 1 , further comprising a valve disposed within the elongated portion, configured to open in response to rising fluid pressure exerted by fluid pushed out from the bottle body portion. 
     
     
         15 . The personal hygiene device of  claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the bottle body portion proximate to the elongated portion, and the thickness of the bottle body portion at the bottom of the bottle body portion, is greater than the thickness of the bottle body portion at the central portion of the bottle body portion. 
     
     
         16 . The personal hygiene device of  claim 1 , wherein the brush is configured to cleanse a rectal area of a user after a toilet use. 
     
     
         17 . A personal hygiene assembly comprising:
 a bottle body portion configured to hold fluid; and   an elongated portion, removeably coupled to the bottle body portion.   
     
     
         18 . The personal hygiene assembly of  claim 17 , wherein the elongated portion comprises a device selected from a group consisting of a first device having an orifice configured to release the fluid and a second device having no orifice. 
     
     
         19 . The personal hygiene assembly of  claim 18 , wherein the second device comprises a stretchy material. 
     
     
         20 . The personal hygiene assembly of  claim 17 , wherein the elongated portion is configured to be inserted into a body cavity.
