Benefits of technology

[0005] The present invention is a waterproof scrubbing glove which has scrubbing bristles built into the structure of the glove, as to allow the user to perform a variety of cleaning actions without the need to grip onto an external cleaning device, such as a brush, thus preventing the items from falling out of the user's hand, preventing additional strain

Problems solved by technology

A shortcoming associated with this is that the device has a tendency of slipping or falling out of the user's hand when cleaning.
This would be particularly difficult for someone who is suffering from joint problems, arthritis for example.
Many of today's existing technologies of scrubbing brushes and similar cleaning devices have awkward shapes and limited flexibility.
Bathtubs, tiles in bathrooms, and sinks for example, have hard to reach spaces and often awkward shapes.
Existing scrub brushes tend to have their bristles set on a hard surface which mak

Embodiment Construction

[0009] Taking into consideration the foregone shortcomings with the existing technology, the present invention is a stain and dirt removal waterproof scrub glove. The glove has 0.1 to 20 mm, preferably 1 to 10 mm, of brush made up of bristles, which can be made of at least one of either synthetic fiber, metal fiber and other material and which covers the surface of the glove. Examples of other synthetic fibers that can be used for the bristle on the surface of the glove include polyamide fiber, polyolefin fiber, polyester fiber and others. These materials are built into the glove structure. The glove is waterproof and covers the entire surface of a person's hand including the thumb and finger stalls. The scrubbing material can cover the entire hand portion of the glove, which includes the palm surface of the glove, as well as the side of the palm as well as the sides and tips of the finger stalls including the thumb stall. An example of uses for the side palm bristles is that it can...

Description

BACKGROUND OF INVENTION [0001] Many of today's devices that are used to clean and scrub surfaces are not attached to gloves; but are rather stand alone products, which require the user to grip them independently with their hands. A shortcoming associated with this is that the device has a tendency of slipping or falling out of the user's hand when cleaning. Another shortcoming with this is that when a user grips on to this device to clean a surface, extra pressure is required on the part of the user to scrub and clean the surface because of the added force needed to hold on to this device while at the same time applying sufficient pressure to clean a surface. This would be particularly difficult for someone who is suffering from joint problems, arthritis for example. [0002] Many of today's existing technologies of scrubbing brushes and similar cleaning devices have awkward shapes and limited flexibility. Bathtubs, tiles in bathrooms, and sinks for example, have hard to reach spaces ...
