LOTION DISTRIBUTION DEVICE

Abstract

A lotion distribution device is configured to apply lotion to a back area that is unreachable by human hands. The lotion distribution device includes an applicator twisted and tied to form a left loop and a right loop. The applicator has a porous property that enables the applicator to store the lotion. The human hands can hold the left loop and the right loop to apply the applicator and thus the lotion to the back area.

Description

BACKGROUND

The embodiments herein relate generally to devices configured to spread lotion.

Prior to embodiments of the disclosed invention, it was impossible for a user to spread lotion onto one's back without the assistance of another person. Embodiments of the disclosed invention solve this problem.

SUMMARY

A lotion distribution device is configured to apply lotion to a back area that is unreachable by human hands. The lotion distribution device includes an applicator twisted and tied to form a left loop and a right loop. The applicator has a porous property that enables the applicator to store the lotion. The human hands can hold the left loop and the right loop to apply the applicator and thus the lotion to the back area.

In some embodiments, the applicator is made from a single piece of perforated polyvinyl chloride film. The single piece of perforated polyvinyl chloride film can have a plurality of perforations wherein the plurality of perforations store the lotion.

A process for apply lotion to a back area that is unreachable by human hands includes the following steps. First, obtaining an applicator wherein the applicator has a porous property that enables the applicator to store the lotion. Next, twisting and tying the applicator to form a left loop and a right loop. Then, applying the lotion to the applicator. After that, grasping the left loop and the right loop with the human hands such that one hand is above shoulders and another hand is below the shoulders. Finally, rubbing the applicator across the back area which dispenses the lotion from the applicator across the back area.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES

The detailed description of some embodiments of the invention is made below with reference to the accompanying figures, wherein like numerals represent corresponding parts of the figures.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an embodiment of the invention shown in use.

FIG. 2 is a perspective view of an embodiment of the invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF CERTAIN EMBODIMENTS

By way of example, and referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, one embodiment of lotion distribution device 10 comprises applicator 14 twisted and tied to form left loop 16 and right loop 16.

User 12 desires to apply lotion 20 to back area 18 which cannot be reached be human hands of user 12. Lotion distribution device 10 solves that problem. User 12 can apply lotion 20 into lotion distribution device 10, and then hold left loop 16 with a left hand and right loop 16 with a right hand such that one hand is above the user's shoulders and one hand is below the user's shoulders. User 12 can then rest applicator 14 against back area 18. User 12 then rubs applicator 14 across back area 18 to dispense lotion 20 onto back area 18 which could not otherwise be reached by the hands of user 12.

In some embodiments, applicator 14 is made of a single piece of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) film which is twisted and tied to form left loop 16 and right loop 16. The single piece of PVC film can be a perforated film with perforations of various sizes that can accommodate various kinds of lotion. In some embodiments, a single piece of perforated polyvinyl chloride film comprising a plurality of perforations can use the plurality of perforations store the lotion. Regardless, the film should have a porous property that enables the applicator to store the lotion. That porous property can also be accomplished, to a lesser degree, by inserting lotion into the folds of applicator 14.

Persons of ordinary skill in the art may appreciate that numerous design configurations may be possible to enjoy the functional benefits of the inventive systems. Thus, given the wide variety of configurations and arrangements of embodiments of the present invention the scope of the invention is reflected by the breadth of the claims below rather than narrowed by the embodiments described above.
