The components in the figures are not necessarily to scale, emphasis instead being placed upon illustrating the principles of the invention. Moreover, in the figures, like referenced numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the different views.

[0019] FIG. 1 is a view of a hygienic cleaning brush according to an embodiment of the disclosure.

[0020] FIG. 2 is a view of a hygienic cleaning brush according to an embodiment of the disclosure.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0021] FIG. 1 is an aspect view 100 of a hygienic cleaning brush according to an embodiment of the disclosure. The hygienic cleaning brush 100 may include a brush 101. The brush 101 may include bristles 103 of varying length and cross-sectional dimension, depending on the hygienic cleaning brush use. Smaller nubs on the brush 101 may be used for smaller crevices, such as between the toes. Longer bristles may be advantageous for cleaning other crevices or orifices such as the intergluteal cleft, a gluteal fold or an anal area. The hygienic cleaning brush 100 may include a handle 102 where the handle comprises a groove running along a length of the handle 102. In one embodiment, the handle 102 may be an elongate body, with a concave curvature. The hygienic cleaning brush 100 may include the brush 102 at one end of the handle 102, and the brush 102 may be configured to clean a crevice on the human body.

[0022] In one embodiment, the hygienic cleaning brush 100 could be made of silicone or another material such as plastic or rubber. The length of the handle 102 may be varied in dimension as needed for convenience.

[0023] In one embodiment, the size of brush 101 may vary in length and circumference depending on the needs of the user.

[0024] In one embodiment, the bristles 103 on the brush 101 could vary in length and could be nubs but go all the way around to allow water flow to be minimized or maximized depending on which direction the handle 102 faces.

[0025] In one embodiment, the hygienic cleaning brush 100 has a length of the handle approximately 18 inches, and gently curved to allow for the reach to body parts desired to be cleaned and has a concave area the length of the handle 102 on one side to help flowing water, such as in the shower, to flow directly to the end of the hygienic cleaning brush 100 for rinsing areas during cleaning. In one embodiment, the hygienic cleaning brush 100 may be used in standing water such as a bathtub just for the additional reach help. The handle is wider at the grip and narrower at the base allowing more water to be caught and directed to the cleaning area.

[0026] In one embodiment, the base of the brush 101 is approximately two inches long and includes a inch diameter brush 101 covered completely all the way around in soft, super flexible inch silicone, dull ended bristles. The hygienic cleaning brush 100 may be cleaned with soap and water.

[0027] The hygienic cleaning brush 100 may be used for cleaning between toes, between folds of skin or anywhere externally. The hygienic cleaning brush 100 may be advantageous in its ability to get water into tighter areas to rinse more thoroughly after washing with soaps or other body rinses using the soft, flexible, rounded brush 101 at the end which is more comfortable for cleaning. In an embodiment, the hygienic cleaning brush 100 may be used in the shower for water flow but can still be used in a bath to reach hard to reach places. The hygienic cleaning brush may allow people with mobility and reach impairments to thoroughly clean the intergluteal cleft, gluteal fold and anal area.

[0028] FIG. 2 is an aspect view 200 of a hygienic cleaning brush according to an embodiment of the disclosure. The hygienic cleaning brush 200 may include a brush 201. The brush 201 may include bristles 203 of varying length and cross-sectional dimension, depending on the hygienic cleaning brush use. Smaller nubs on the brush 201 may be used for smaller crevices, such as between the toes. Longer bristles may be advantageous for cleaning other crevices or orifices such as the intergluteal cleft, a gluteal fold or an anal area. The hygienic cleaning brush 200 may include a handle 202 where the handle comprises a groove running along a length of the handle 202. In one embodiment, the handle 202 may be an elongate body, with a concave curvature. The hygienic cleaning brush 200 may include the brush 202 at one end of the handle 202, and the brush 202 may be configured to clean a crevice on the human body.

[0029] In one embodiment, the hygienic cleaning brush 200 includes a substantially circular or oval hole 204 at an end of the handle 202. The substantially circular or oval hole 204 may be configured to allow the hygienic cleaning brush 200 to be hung on a hook or allow a hanging attachment to be inserted into the hole 202.

[0030] In one embodiment, the hygienic cleaning brush 200 could be made of silicone or another material such as plastic or rubber. The length of the handle 202 may be varied in dimension as needed for convenience.

[0031] In one embodiment, the size of brush 201 may vary in length and circumference depending on the needs of the user.

[0032] In one embodiment, the bristles 203 on the brush 201 could vary in length and could be nubs but go all the way around to allow water flow to be minimized or maximized depending on which direction the handle 202 faces.

[0033] In one embodiment, the hygienic cleaning brush 200 has a length of the handle approximately 18 inches, and gently curved to allow for the reach to the area desired to be cleaned and has a concave area the length of the handle 202 on one side to help flowing water, such as in the shower, to flow directly to the end of the hygienic cleaning brush 200 for rinsing areas during cleaning. In one embodiment, the hygienic cleaning brush 200 may be used in standing water such as a bathtub just for the additional reach help. The handle 202 is wider at the grip and narrower at the base allowing more water to be caught and directed to the cleaning area.

[0034] In one embodiment, the base of the brush 201 is approximately two inches long and includes a inch diameter brush covered completely all the way around in soft, super flexible inch silicone, dull ended bristles. The hygienic cleaning brush 200 may be cleaned with soap and water.

[0035] In an embodiment, the hygienic cleaning brush 200 may be used from the front of the body or from behind the body. The hygienic cleaning brush 200 may be used for cleaning between toes, between folds of skin or anywhere externally. The hygienic cleaning brush 200 may be advantageous in its ability to get water into tighter areas to rinse more thoroughly after washing with soaps or other body rinses using the soft, flexible, rounded brush 201 at the end which is more comfortable for cleaning. In an embodiment, the hygienic cleaning brush 200 may be used in the shower for water flow but can still be used in a bath to reach hard to reach places.
