Foot washing apparatus including a base, a housing with a first arm extending vertically from the base so as to generally divide an upper surface of the base into a toe area and a heel area, and a second arm having a lower surface extending generally horizontally from the first arm, the lower surface of the second arm overlying the toe area. A soap dispensing assembly includes a receptacle for receiving a pressurized soap can, an activating lever for dispensing soap, a conduit system for carrying dispensed soap from the soap can to brushes carried by the apparatus, and a stabilizing handle extending upwardly form the base. A trigger mechanism is carried by a grip and coupled to the activating lever by a link for moving the activating lever to the activated position.

This invention relates to a novel personal care product including an upper product end, a housing at the upper product end, the housing having a top opening and an outer wall, a treatment sheet disposed over the top opening of the housing; and one or more windows disposed in the outer wall of the housing. Fluid flows through the windows or through a plurality of apertures in the treatment sheet or both. The fluid flow removes debris from a lower surface of the treatment sheet, a cavity of said housing, or both. The fluid flows in a direction parallel to the treatment sheet into and/or out of the one or more windows. The windows can be a polygonal or round shape and can have rounded corners. The windows may oppose each other. The outer wall is along an outer surface of the upper end of the product.

A bathing chair apparatus for safe and effective washing includes a base having a base platform and a plurality of base legs. A plurality of feet is coupled to the base. A lower body has a lower base portion coupled to the base platform and a leg portion extending from the lower base portion. The leg portion has a plurality of leg apertures. An upper body has an upper base portion pivotably coupled to the base platform and a back portion. The upper base portion and the back portion have a plurality of upper apertures. A plurality of nozzles is in fluid communication with the plurality of leg apertures and the plurality of upper apertures. A plurality of feeder tubes is coupled to the plurality of nozzles. A supply hose is in fluid communication with the plurality of feeder tubes and is engaged with a faucet.

A handwashing device that provides an incentive for proper handwashing is presented. The handwashing device contains a housing, a brush layer, a processing unit, an activation element, an indicator element, and a timer switch. The housing is positioned within the brush layer. The processing unit is positioned within the housing. The processing unit, the activation element, the indicator element, and the timer switch are electronically connected to the processing unit. In the preferred embodiment, the housing may take the form of a rigid and waterproof electronics enclosure that houses the electronic components that constitutes the handwashing device. Additionally, the housing serves as a mounting implement for the brush layer to attach along where the brush layer conforms to the shape of the housing. In the preferred embodiment, the housing is constructed out of a light permeable material, such as, but not limited to translucent polycarbonate, or any other suitable material.

A method for controlling display of a user interface for optimizing performance in using a personal care appliance is provided including: receiving a user info or regimen; receiving a protocol or routine to use the appliance; receiving an appliance status related to a user's usage of the appliance; comparing the appliance status to a target usage of the appliance in the protocol or routine; and controlling display of an indicator of the user's performance based on the comparison.

A personal care appliance is provided that includes a brushhead for use in skincare; an appliance body having a motor assembly for oscillating the brushhead, wherein the brushhead or a portion of the motor assembly that is configured to oscillate includes a marking; and a brush encoder configured to detect the marking, and determine the oscillation of the brushhead.

A system to promote optimum performance of a personal care appliance is provided including: a personal care appliance having an appliance status; and a client device, in communication with the appliance, including circuitry configured to compare the appliance status with the protocol for using the appliance, control display of an indicator based on the comparison.

The present disclosure is intended to provide a buttock wiping device configured so that pressure on the buttocks in wiping can be adjusted and a buttock wiping arm used for the buttock wiping device. The present disclosure relates to a wiping arm whose operation is controlled by a buttock wiping device for wiping the buttocks with a wiping material. The wiping arm includes an arm portion, a head portion configured to press the wiping material against the buttocks, and a force sensor configured to detect force when the wiping material is pressed against the buttocks. The force sensor is a strain gauge, a load cell, or a semiconductor pressure sensor.
