DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

With reference now to the drawings, and in particular to FIGS. 1 through 5 thereof, a new body sponge device embodying the principles and concepts of an embodiment of the disclosure and generally designated by the reference numeral 10 will be described.

As best illustrated in FIGS. 1 through 5, the compressed body exfoliating device 10 generally comprises a base 12. The base 12 is configured for being grasped by a hand 14 of the user 16. The base 12 has a circular shape 18 having a sponge surface 20 and a hand surface 22. Furthermore, the base 12 has a perimeter wall 24 protruding out from the sponge surface 20. The base 12 is configured to be within a range of sizing to fit within the palm of the hand 14 of the user 16. The base 12 is a waterproof material being configured for being liquid impervious. The waterproof material of the base 12 is meant to reduce damage to the base 12 from constant exposure to water.

A exfoliating mesh fabric 26 is adhered on the sponge surface 20 of the base 12. The exfoliating mesh fabric 26 is a mesh material 28 being configured for being soft relative to the body of the user 16. The exfoliating mesh fabric 26 is configured for retaining a liquid mixture 30 wherein the liquid mixture 30 includes soap and water. The liquid mixture 30 is used to wash the body 40 of the user 16. The exfoliating mesh fabric 26 is a strip has a first end 32 and a second end 34. The first end 32 is positioned adjacent to the perimeter wall 24 of the base 12. The exfoliating mesh fabric 26 enwinds about itself wherein the second end 34 is positioned within a center 36 of the sponge surface 20 of the base 12. The exfoliating mesh fabric 26 has a spiral shape 38 upon the sponge surface 20 of the base 12 wherein the spiral shape 38 is configured for providing equal coverage of the exfoliating mesh fabric 26 upon the surface of the body 40. The equal coverage of the exfoliating mesh fabric 26 upon the surface of the body 40 ameliorates the process of cleaning the body 40. The spiral shape 38 is configured for use upon the face 42 of the user 16.

An alternate embodiment 44 of the compressed mesh exfoliating device 10 includes the base 12 lacking a circular shape 18 and having an oval shape 46. The perimeter wall 24 of the base 12 of the alternate embodiment has a pair of heads 48 being positioned parallel relative to each other. The base 12 of the alternate embodiment 44 has a strap 50 adhered to the hand surface 22 of the base 12. The strap 50 is configured for enwrapping the hand 14 of the user 16 wherein fastening the base 12 to the hand 14 when in-use. The exfoliating mesh fabric 26 of the alternate embodiment 44 has the first end 32 and the second end 34 being positioned adjacent to a respective one of the pair of heads 48 of the perimeter wall 24. The exfoliating mesh fabric 26 of the alternate embodiment 44 is repeatedly folded from the first end 32 to the second end 34 of the exfoliating mesh fabric 26. The layered shape 52 of the exfoliating mesh fabric 26 of the alternate embodiment 44 is configured for use upon the body 40 of the user 16 rather than the face 42 of the user 16.

In use, the user 16 applies the liquid mixture 30 to the exfoliating mesh fabric 26. Subsequently, the exfoliating mesh fabric 26 washes the face 42 of the user 16. The spiral shape 38 of the exfoliating mesh fabric 26 provides equal coverage of the exfoliating mesh fabric 26 against the skin of the user 16 wherein ameliorating the exfoliation process for the skin of the user 16. Furthermore, the user 16 applies the liquid mixture 30 to the exfoliating mesh fabric 26 of the alternate embodiment 44 prior to washing the body 40 of the user 16. The user 16 can secure the base 12 of the alternate embodiment 44 to the hand 14 by inserting the hand 14 within the strap 50.

With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of an embodiment enabled by the disclosure, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by an embodiment of the disclosure.

Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the disclosure. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the disclosure to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the disclosure. In this patent document, the word “comprising” is used in its non-limiting sense to mean that items following the word are included, but items not specifically mentioned are not excluded. A reference to an element by the indefinite article “a” does not exclude the possibility that more than one of the element is present, unless the context clearly requires that there be only one of the elements.
