Abstract
The Shower Wand Scrubber is the only product of its kind that securely attaches to the shower wand head valve adapter attachments that aid in cleaning hard-to-reach areas of the body. This unprecedented product is uniquely designed to have different types of attachments such as exfoliating scrubbing clothes, loofas, sponges or a massager with ease allowing the water to flow from the shower wand head through the attached device. This innovative, top-quality product eliminates the need for users to buy individual wands, scrubbers, or loofahs and allows users to better cleanse themselves.
Description
BACKGROUND

Showering on a daily basis often does not equate to a full body, completely clean, experience as some areas are a challenge to access when bathing. Although individuals may use a scrubber, or some other accessory, there's still a lot to be desired when it comes to ensuring every shower yields a full body cleansing. There have been no products available as original equipment or as an aftermarket to address this problem.


An apparatus to help you achieve a completely clean full body experience when showering, especially in those hard to reach areas, is not being met by any known device or system at present. There have been no products available as original equipment or as an aftermarket to address this problem either.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The main purpose of the shower wand scrubber is to provide users with a multi-functional extendable shower wand with an interchangeable head attachment to ensure individuals are able to bathe hard-to-reach areas of the body, with ease.

Throughout the description, similar reference numbers may be used to identify similar elements depicted in multiple embodiments. Although specific embodiments of the invention have been described and illustrated, the invention is not to be limited to the specific forms or arrangements of parts so described and illustrated. The scope of the invention is to be defined by the claims appended hereto and their equivalents.


DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Reference will now be made to exemplary embodiments illustrated in the drawings and specific language will be used herein to describe the same. It will nevertheless be understood that no limitation of the scope of the disclosure is thereby intended. Alterations and further modifications of the inventive features illustrated herein and additional applications of the principles of the inventions as illustrated herein, which would occur to one skilled in the relevant art and having possession of this disclosure, are to be considered within the scope of the invention.



FIG. 1 is a front perspective view of the shower wand scrubber showing: shower wand P, O-ring referenced as A, lock tab referenced as B1, spray changer referenced as C, stop ball valve referenced as D, inner shaft referenced as E, half turn lock nut referenced as F, expandable handle referenced as G, flexible hose referenced as H, in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure. The orifice V1 allows water to be concentrated in a single stream via the spray changer C from distributed many smaller holes to a concentrated stream through a single center hole or orifice.



FIG. 2 is a left side perspective view of the shower wand scrubber showing: shower wand P, O-ring referenced as A, lock tab referenced as B1, spray changer referenced as C, stop ball valve referenced as D, half turn lock nut referenced as F, flexible hose referenced as H, interchangeable head referenced as I, puff loofah attachment referenced as J, rubber grip referenced as K, exfoliating cloth scrubber with sponge referenced as L, rubber scrubs for pets referenced as M, massage attachment referenced as N, bristles attachment referenced as O, in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure. The orifice V1 in the shower head P allows water to be concentrated in a single stream via the spray changer C. Each of the attachments J, L, M, N and O comprise a center orifice V2 to pass a concentrated stream of water. Each of the attachments J, L, M, N and O also comprise lock notches B2 complementary to the lock tabs B1 on the shower head P. The shower head also comprises rubber nubs Q for further attachment of the various shower head attachments.



FIG. 3 is a bottom perspective view of the shower wand scrubber showing: interchangeable head referenced as I, shower wand referenced as P, rubber nubs outlet referenced as Q, interlocking indentation referenced as R with retaining ridges X, in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure. Also, an elastic strap S holds a user's hand against a back of the users hand and palm to the shower head to facilitate control of the shower head in scrubbing use.


The present disclosed shower wand scrubber, also known as “Shower Wand Scrubber”, offers a modern alternative option that allows users to employ the shower wand head as a scrubber to thoroughly wash all areas of the body;


thus, eliminating the need to buy limited secondary supplies, i.e., an independent wooden scrubber. Expanding on the initial design of an average shower head, the Shower Wand Scrubber introduces a novel shower head that conveniently attaches to the shower valve adapter, giving users more length to access areas of the body that are typically hard-to-reach such as the upper and lower back, legs, etc. which allows for a cleaner and more enjoyable shower experience. With the Shower Wand Scrubber, users will be able to interchangeably attach a wide variety of attachments that include an exfoliating cloth scrubber with a sponge, a massage attachment, a puff loofah attachment and a bristles attachment for the primary shower head. Moreover, the Shower Wand Scrubber can be used for pets and comes with rubber scrubbing attachments specifically designed for that purpose. After usage of an attachment, one can simply run the water to rinse off the piece and then twist it off to hang and, ultimately, dry.


Although the operations of the method(s) herein are shown and described in a particular order, the order of the operations of each method may be altered so that certain operations may be performed in an inverse order or so that certain operations may be performed, at least in part, concurrently with other operations. In another embodiment, instructions or sub-operations of distinct operations may be implemented in an intermittent and/or alternating manner.
