Abstract
A moisture pad includes a porous pad, for example a sponge; a water bladder or reservoir; and a container for securely supporting the porous pad and the reservoir. Optionally, a lid may be provided as a closure for the container to reduce evaporation of the water. As another option, a strap can be provided for the container to allow the moisture pad to be worn on a person's body.
Claims12
A moisture pad comprising:
- a porous pad for holding a quantity of absorbed water, said porous pad wetting one or more of a user's fingers with a portion of the quantity of water absorbed therein when said porous pad having the quantity of water absorbed therein is pressed by the one or more of the users fingers;
- a reservoir for holding a quantity of water in reserve, water from said reservoir wetting said porous pad under the control of the user;
- a container for supporting said porous pad and said reservoir, wherein the container comprises a pad compartment housing said porous pad, said pad compartment and said reservoir being arranged side by side, said reservoir being separated from said porous pad by a wall, said container having opening configured to allow a user to press or squeeze said porous pad;
- a one-way valve configured to allow water originating from said reservoir to be applied to said porous pad when said one-way valve is open, wherein said reservoir is a squeezable reservoir such that water from said reservoir wets said porous pad when said reservoir is squeezed by the user while said reservoir holds at least some water;
- and
- a filling opening for said reservoir, wherein said filling opening is connected to said reservoir by an extendable conduit so that a stress placed on an attachment between the filling open and the container when squeezing said reservoir is reduced.
