AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention is about a system that combines a soap and a fabric. The fabric is embedded in the soap and extends from it. The invention also includes a method of making the integrated soap and fabric by positioning the fabric in a mold and then adding the soap to the mold. This invention provides a unique and useful combination of soap and fabric that has improved functionality and aesthetic appearance.

Problems solved by technology

Bringing piecemeal bars of soap and washcloths for personal use at places like gyms, hotels and the like is cumbersome, inconvenient, messy and unhygienic.
Bar soaps and liquid soaps can be heavy and spill into or otherwise mess up your bag or suitcase.
For one, there may be a concern that the washcloth is not sufficiently clean, since washcloths can be an active breeding ground for germs and other contagions.
The house soup may be cloyingly scented, may irritate the user's skin, or not be very effective.
