Solution Overview

Problem

There is a need for a discreet, convenient, and easily disposable personal hygiene product that can provide a pleasant flavor and effective cleaning for the genital area, especially in situations where access to proper hygiene materials is limited, such as before sexual encounters.

Innovation Solution

A personal hygiene towelette with a textile fabric body impregnated with a consumable cleaning solution containing a cleaning agent and a flavoring agent, housed in a sealed pouch that can be easily carried and used for genital cleansing.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of operation

If traditional hygiene products (soap, water, towels) are used for genital cleansing, then effective cleaning can be achieved, but the product becomes bulky, requires extensive preparation, and cannot be conveniently carried or disposed of

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveconvenience of useVSAvoidpreparation requirements

Core Design Contradiction:

Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines multiple functions (cleaning, moisturizing, flavoring, and disposal) into a single integrated towelette product. The textile body is impregnated with cleaning solution containing surfactants, moisturizers, and flavoring agents, eliminating the need for separate bottles, towels, and preparation steps.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The invention employs a disposable towelette that is used once and then discarded. This eliminates the need for washing and storing reusable towels, and the sealed packaging allows it to be carried conveniently without requiring extensive preparation or specialized facilities for disposal.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #27Cheap short-living objects (Disposable)

2Ease of operation

If genital area is flavored with lubricants or sprays, then pleasant flavor can be achieved, but the product becomes difficult to carry discreetly and requires access to storage facilities

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvediscreet portabilityVSAvoidflavoring delivery

Core Design Contradiction:

Ease of operationVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the flavoring function with the cleaning function in a single towelette. The flavoring agents are impregnated into the textile body along with cleaning solutions, allowing simultaneous cleaning and flavoring in one discreetly carried product without requiring separate storage facilities.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Ease of manufacture

If reusable hygiene products are used, then cost-effectiveness can be improved, but cleaning and storage facilities are required which may not be accessible

Engineering Contradiction:

Improveproduct simplicityVSAvoidenvironmental adaptability

Core Design Contradiction:

Ease of manufactureVSAdaptability or versatility

Solution Approach 1:

The invention uses a disposable towelette with sealed packaging that requires no cleaning or storage facilities. The product is designed for single use in any environment, including locations where traditional hygiene facilities are unavailable, such as restrooms or outdoor settings.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #27Cheap short-living objects (Disposable)

4Quantity of substance

If the towelette is made larger to provide sufficient cleaning solution, then cleaning effectiveness is improved, but the product becomes harder to carry discreetly

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvecleaning solution capacityVSAvoidtowelette size

Core Design Contradiction:

Quantity of substanceVSVolume of moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent uses a thin, flexible textile body that can be impregnated with cleaning solution. The flexible nature allows the towelette to be folded into a compact form for discreet carrying, while still providing sufficient cleaning solution coverage when unfolded for use.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #30Flexible shells and thin films

Solution Approach 2:

The towelette utilizes the dimensional space created by folding and unfolding. When carried, it occupies minimal space in a folded state; when used, it expands to provide full coverage area, effectively transitioning between compact storage and functional size.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

AI summary

A personal hygiene towelette includes a consumable cleaning solution that includes a cleaning agent and a flavoring agent, as well as a textile fabric body, for example a nonwoven textile fabric body, impregnated with the cleaning solution. A personal hygiene assembly including the towelette may further include a sealed housing that houses the personal hygiene towelette.
