Benefits of technology

The present patent describes new dispensers for gel soap that provide convenient and controlled release of gel soap without the need for a large container. The dispensers can be held in one's hand and used as a washing or cleaning implement. The dispensers have a valve or valves that can move from a closed position to an open position to control the dispensing of the gel soap. The outer surface of the container can be textured or have other features to improve grip and provide a better scrubbing surface. The dispensers also have a movable inner wall that can hold the gel soap and allow it to pass through the opening when activated. The dispensers may also have barrier elements to prevent the gel soap from leaking during transportation and storage.

Problems solved by technology

Using such a large, single opening container of gel soap can be inconvenient.
For example, if the container is continuously held by the user, the hand holding the container cannot be used in washing one's body, thus making it more difficult and / or time consuming to effectively shower / bathe.
If the container is periodically picked up and set down, the container can become slippery and difficult to handle.

Embodiment Construction

[0040]The term “gel soap” as used herein refers to any liquid or gel soap composition which is sufficiently flowable and has a composition (chemical make-up) sufficiently effective to facilitate personal washing and / or cleaning and / or cleansing and / or hydrating and / or conditioning to be used in accordance with the present invention. The gel soap may have a viscosity which is greater or increased relative to liquid water at the same conditions. In one example, the gel soap may have a viscosity in a range of about 2000 Cp or less to about 20,000 Cp or more, or about 5000 Cp to about 15,000 Cp. Such viscosities may be measured at room temperature or about 25° C. The gel soap may include materials which enhance or facilitate foaming and / or lathering once the material is in use in washing and / or cleaning of a human or animal body or body part.

[0041]The gel soap useful in the present dispensers may be any such gel soap suitable for use therein. For example, such gel soap may contain water...
