TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of kitchen and bathroom supplies, in particular, to a soap holder. BACKGROUND

[0002] The soap holder is a device for holding soap on a washstand, a sink or the like. However, water is usually left on the surface of the soap after use, which will flow to the soap holder under the action of gravity, thereby soaking the bottom of the soap, causing the bottom of the soap to deliquesce, breed bacteria and the like, resulting in waste of the soap. In addition, when the washstand, sink or the like needs to be cleaned, the soap needs to be used with cleaning materials (such as sponges, towels or the like). If the cleaning materials are directly placed on the washstand, sink or the like, there is a problem that the cleaning materials are easily wet or the surface of the washstand or sink is dirty and messy. If the cleaning materials are placed in other positions, they need to be taken separately each time, which is inconvenient to use. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[0029] The specific embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely intended to illustrate and explain the present disclosure, and are not intended to limit the present disclosure.

[0030] In the present disclosure, the orientation words such as "inner, outer", "upper, lower", "top, bottom" used are either relative to the structure of the corresponding component itself, or are defined based on the actual use direction of the corresponding component. For example, the "upper" part and the "lower" part are based on the height direction of the soap holder when in use, i.e. the direction perpendicular to the placing surface of the soap holder, the "upper" direction is away from the placing surface, and the "lower" direction is close to the placing surface; the "outer" surface of the side part refers to the outer surface of the side part facing away from the accommodating cavity.

[0031] In addition, in the present disclosure, the terms "first", "second", etc. are used to distinguish one element from another element, and do not have sequentiality and importance. In the following description with reference to the drawings, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements, unless otherwise indicated.

[0032] Referring to Figures 1-6The soap holder according to the present disclosure exemplarily comprises a body, the body comprising a first supporting part 1, a second supporting part 3 spaced apart from the first supporting part 1, and a side part 4 connected between the first supporting part 1 and the second supporting part 3. The first supporting part 1 is configured in a hollow shape and has a first supporting surface 101. The second supporting part 3 is configured in a hollow shape and has a second supporting surface 301, and the first supporting surface 101 and the second supporting surface 301 are oppositely arranged to be selectively used for supporting a soap 2. The side part 4, together with the first supporting part 1 and the second supporting part 3, encloses a containing cavity 5 for containing a cleaning material. Here, "oppositely arranged" means that the first supporting surface 101 and the second supporting surface 301 are opposite to each other to face two opposite directions, so as to realize a double-sided selective use function of the soap holder. For example, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the first supporting surface 101 is used for supporting the soap 2, the first supporting surface 101 faces upward and the second supporting surface 301 faces downward.

[0033] Here, the present disclosure does not limit the specific structure of the "first supporting part", "second supporting part", and "side part", which can be adaptively designed according to requirements, as long as the three can enclose the containing cavity 5 for containing the cleaning material. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the "first supporting part", "second supporting part", and "side part" can be integrally injection molded. Alternatively, in some other embodiments, the "first supporting part", "second supporting part", and "side part" can also be assembled into a whole by bonding or the like.

[0034] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the cleaning material can be a sponge pad, a small towel, or the like, as long as it can be placed in the containing cavity 5, and when it is a water-absorbing material such as a sponge pad, it can also absorb the flowing soap water.

[0035] The present disclosure does not limit how the first supporting part 1 and the second supporting part 3 are configured in a hollow shape, which can be realized by the rib or grid structure mentioned below, or can also be realized by opening a plurality of through holes, which will be introduced below, as long as the liquid on the corresponding supporting surface can flow to the containing cavity 5.

[0036] By using the above technical solutions, the first supporting part 1 and the second supporting part 3 are designed as hollow shapes respectively and have supporting surfaces respectively, so that the double-side use function of the soap holder can be realized, that is, no matter whether the soap is placed on the first supporting surface 101 or the second supporting surface 301, the draining effect of the soap can be realized, that is, the soap water will flow down from the hollow part of the supporting surface, so as to avoid the soaking and deliquescence of the soap. In addition, by arranging the accommodating cavity 5, on the one hand, the placement of the cleaning material can be solved, so as to avoid the dirty and messy table surface and the inconvenient use and the like, and on the other hand, when the soap water flows down to the accommodating cavity 5, the soap water can be absorbed by the cleaning material, so as to avoid the further flow of the soap water to the placing table surface of the soap holder, thereby causing the hygiene problem, and the absorbed soap water can be fully utilized when the cleaning material is used next time, so as to avoid the waste of the soap water. In addition, the double-hollow design of the first supporting part 1 and the second supporting part 3 is more conducive to the air circulation and has high air permeability, so that the used soap 2 and the cleaning material can be quickly dried and kept in the dry state.

[0037] In order to realize the insertion and removal of the cleaning material into and from the accommodating cavity 5, with reference to Figures 1-6 In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the body can have an insertion part 7 for inserting or removing the cleaning material, and the present disclosure does not limit the specific structure of the insertion part 7, which can be a lateral opening or the like, which will be introduced in the following embodiment.

[0038] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the inside of the body can be configured as a hollow shape to serve as the accommodating cavity 5, the upper part of the body can serve as the aforementioned first supporting part 1, and the lower part of the body can serve as the aforementioned second supporting part 3, and the first supporting part 1 and the second supporting part 3 can be formed with a rib or grid structure respectively. It should be explained that the "upper part" and "lower part" here refer to the upper side part and the lower side part of the body, and the specific structure thereof can be adaptively designed according to actual needs.

[0039] The present disclosure does not limit the specific structure of the body, and two embodiments will be specifically introduced below to facilitate the understanding of the present scheme, and of course, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, specifically:

[0040] First embodiment:

[0041] With reference to Figures 1-3, the side portion 4 can be annular, the first supporting portion 1 and the second supporting portion 3 can respectively include a plurality of parallel and spaced ribs 8, wherein, in the up-down direction, the ribs 8 can be spaced from the side portion 4, and both ends of the ribs 8 are bent and extend towards the side portion 4 to connect the side portion 4, and the gap between one of the edges of the plurality of ribs 8 and the side portion 4 can form the above-mentioned insertion portion 7. In addition, in some other embodiments, the cleaning material can also be inserted and taken out through the gap between two adjacent ribs 8, that is, the gap between two adjacent ribs 8 forms the above-mentioned insertion portion 7. In this embodiment, by arranging two adjacent ribs 8 to be spaced from each other to form the above-mentioned hollow shape, the water draining function and the ventilation of the soap holder can be ensured.

[0042] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the ribs 8 can be integrally formed with the side portion 4. The rib 8 structure is more conducive to deforming the body to extrude and rub the inside cleaning material when an external force is applied to the body, and the deformation range of each rib 8 is larger and more flexible relative to the entire plane.

[0043] Further, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the ribs 8 of the first supporting portion 1 and the ribs 8 of the second supporting portion 3 can be staggered in the arrangement direction of the ribs 8. By designing in this way, on the one hand, the structure of the soap holder can be more stable, and on the other hand, when deformed by applying an external force to rub the cleaning material, the staggered structure can ensure that the extrusion position of the cleaning material is more widely distributed, thereby improving the cleaning sufficiency and cleaning efficiency.

[0044] When the ribs 8 of the first supporting portion 1 and the ribs 8 of the second supporting portion 3 are staggered in the arrangement direction of the ribs 8, according to the embodiments shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the number of ribs 8 of the first supporting portion 1 can be five, and the number of ribs 8 of the second supporting portion 3 can be four, and the four ribs 8 of the second supporting portion 3 are arranged between two adjacent ribs 8 of the first supporting portion 1 in turn. In this case, the insertion portion 7 can be formed by the gap between one of the four ribs 8 of the second supporting portion 3 located at the outermost side and the side portion 4, and the gap size is larger than the gap size between one of the five ribs 8 of the first supporting portion 1 located at the outermost side and the side portion, which is more conducive to the insertion and taking out of the cleaning material.

[0045] Second embodiment:

[0046] Referring to Figures 4-6In this embodiment, the side portion can be a semi-enclosing structure to form the insertion portion 7, and the first supporting portion 1 and the second supporting portion 3 can be respectively configured as a grid structure. The grid structure itself can form the hollowed-out shape to meet the water draining and ventilation functions. In this embodiment, the grid structure and the semi-enclosing structure can be integrally formed, or can be assembled to form an integral whole. In this embodiment, the unsealed position of the semi-enclosing structure is the insertion portion of the body, which is actually a lateral opening.

[0047] With reference to Figure 2 and Figure 4 In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the first supporting surface 101 or the second supporting surface 301 can be configured as a shape gradually recessed downward from the edge position to the central position. Alternatively, the first supporting surface 101 and the second supporting surface 301 can be both configured as a shape gradually recessed downward from the edge position to the central position. It should be explained that the "recessed downward" herein refers to the recess from one supporting surface to the other supporting surface. In this way, for the supporting surface on which the soap 2 is placed, on the one hand, it is beneficial to the stability when the soap 2 is placed on the supporting surface, avoiding sliding off the supporting surface; on the other hand, this structure is beneficial to the soap water on the supporting surface to move to the central position under the action of gravity and flow to the accommodation cavity 5 through the hollowed-out position. Conversely, for the supporting surface facing the placement table, the configuration of the shape gradually recessed downward from the edge position to the central position means the shape gradually raised upward from the edge position to the central position, so as to avoid the cleaning material placed in the accommodation cavity 5 from contacting the placement table, keeping the placement table dry and clean.

[0048] With reference to Figures 1-6 In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the first supporting surface 101 and the second supporting surface 301 can be respectively distributed with a plurality of protrusions 6, or one of them can be distributed with a plurality of protrusions 6. The protrusions 6 arranged on the supporting surface, on the one hand, can be used for anti-skid, i.e., increasing the friction between the soap 2 and the supporting surface, avoiding the soap 2 from sliding off the supporting surface; on the other hand, the protrusions 6 can also play the role of small-area supporting the soap 2, thereby being more beneficial to the water draining of the soap 2. In addition, when the soap holder and the cleaning material are used as a whole for cleaning, the protrusions 6 can also increase the friction with the surface to be cleaned, improving the cleaning efficiency; in addition, when the soap holder is used as a massage tool, the protrusions 6 also have the effect of massaging acupoints, making the soap holder have multiple functions. Of course, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the outer surface of the side portion 4 can also be distributed with a plurality of protrusions 6, and the distribution position of the protrusions 6 in the present disclosure is not limited, which can be adaptively designed according to the actual use requirements.

[0049] It should be explained that in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the protrusions 6 can be integrally formed with the body. Alternatively, they can be assembled on the body by bonding or the like.

[0050] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the body can be configured as an elastic structure to rub against the cleaning material in the accommodating cavity 5 when the body is elastically deformed. In this way, when the inner wall of the accommodating cavity 5 or the cleaning material in the accommodating cavity 5 needs to be cleaned, the body can be kneaded by applying an external force to rub the inner wall of the accommodating cavity 5 against the cleaning material, which is convenient and efficient, and effectively solves the problem of difficulty in cleaning the inner wall of the accommodating cavity 5. Specifically, in the two embodiments of the present disclosure, when an external force is applied to the body, the ribs 8 or the grid structure of the soap holder will be twisted to rub against the cleaning material inside the accommodating cavity 5, thereby easily removing soap residues and other contaminants. Of course, since the thickness of the side surface of the ribs 8 and the grid structure is small, when the ribs 8 or the grid structure of the soap holder are twisted, the cleaning material can also clean the side surface of the ribs 8 or the side surface of the hollow holes of the grid structure. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the body can be made of rubber material, so that it has elasticity and good durability.

[0051] In some embodiments, the soap holder can also include a cleaning material formed of a water-absorbing material. For example, it can be a sponge pad.

[0052] The preferred embodiments of the present disclosure are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present disclosure is not limited to the specific details of the above-described embodiments. Within the technical concept of the present disclosure, various simple modifications can be made to the technical solutions of the present disclosure, and these simple modifications all belong to the protection scope of the present disclosure.

[0053] In addition, it should be noted that each specific technical feature described in the above specific embodiments can be combined in any appropriate manner without contradiction. In order to avoid unnecessary repetition, the present disclosure will not further describe various possible combinations.

[0054] In addition, various different embodiments of the present disclosure can also be combined in any appropriate manner, as long as they do not deviate from the idea of the present disclosure, and they should also be considered as disclosed by the present disclosure.
