Pleated portable bidet

Abstract

A hand-operated a portable bidet enables users to carry and operate a bidet wherever they travel. The portable bidet is a unitary container having an aperture at one end and a compressible, pleated plastic sidewall. The bidet may be filled with water and compressed by hand to eject water from the aperture. The pleats separate several tiers of ascending diameter towards to bottom of the bidet, enabling the tiers to be collapsed into each other when the bidet was empty. This collapsibility forms a compact package which may easily be carried.

What is claimed is new and desired to be protected by Letters Patent is set forth in the appended claims: 
     
         1 . A portable bidet comprising:
 a flexible body having a top-circular end, a bottom-circular end, and a cylindrical sidewall between the top-circular end and bottom-circular end, the top-circular end being larger in diameter than the bottom-circular end, the cylindrical sidewall itself comprising
 a plurality of annular pleats enabling the cylindrical sidewall to fold in towards a center of the flexible body such that the cylindrical sidewall may fold up to at least one-hundred and thirty-five degrees at each pleat, and 
 a plurality of tiers separated by the plurality of annular pleats, each of the plurality of tiers having a tier-diameter unique differing from that of each other of the plurality of tiers; 
   an interior volume contained by the flexible body;   an aperture perforating the top-circular end and opening the interior volume to an exterior of the portable bidet;   
     
     
         2 . The portable bidet of  claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of annular pleats include a convex-fold and a concave-fold. 
     
     
         3 . The portable bidet of  claim 1 , wherein the flexible body is constructed of polyethelene terephthalate. 
     
     
         4 . The portable bidet of  claim 1 , wherein the aperture is central to the top-circular end. 
     
     
         5 . The portable bidet of  claim 2 , wherein each of the plurality of annular pleats comprise a flat annular ring between the convex-fold and the concave-fold, such that the flat annular ring provides lateral rigidity to the cylindrical sidewall when the portable bidet is deployed, each on the convex-fold and the concave-fold maintaining an angle of between sixty and one-hundred-and-ten degrees when the portable bidet is deployed.
