Abstract
The present invention is a handheld and highly mobile device with paddle extensions adapted to be comfortably inserted at the same time between a user's toes. The paddle extensions can be moved in an up and down sliding motion for massage or cleaning of inter-toe surfaces. The paddle extensions provide massage in one embodiment and scrubbing or cleansing in another embodiment. In a cleansing embodiment, the invention device incorporates a readily cleaned or disposable glove that form-fits over the paddles. The glove is made of absorbent material with a smooth to coarse outside surface to facilitate cleaning and/or scrubbing.
Claims18
A device for inter-toe massage or cleaning comprising:
- (a) a handle adapted to be held by a user's hand at one end;
- (b) a paddle supporting body rigidly attached to another end of the handle;
- (c) four paddles having a sliding length extending parallel to each other from the paddle supporting body in a direction away from the handle;
- and
- (d) each paddle having a thickness and a width, where each width defines two leading edges adapted to permit a user to insert each of the four paddles respectively into a user's four inter-toe spaces and thereafter pull and push at the handheld end of the handle to move each paddle up and down in the inter-toe spaces.
An inter-toe massage or cleaning device comprising:
- a handle adapted to be held by a user's hand at a first end and to be releasably fixed to a separable piece at a second end;
- one or more separable pieces, each separable piece comprising the paddle support body, one or more variable width paddle extensions being rigidly fixed in a downward orientation from the paddle support body, said paddle extensions being located opposite a side of the paddle support body adapted to releasably engage the second end of the handle, said paddle extensions comprising a flattened, variable width length extending from the paddle support body, and said paddle extensions being spaced apart from each other in a parallel arrangement where two or more paddle extensions are fixed to a paddle support body;
- each paddle extension of a separable piece has a same variable width length, wherealong said length, moving proximal to distal to the paddle support body, the width of the paddle extension:
- for a first paddle extension is relatively wide in a wide width section, relatively narrow in a narrow width section, and is, at a terminal part, relatively wide in a second wide width section;
- or
- for a second paddle extension is relatively narrow in a narrow width section, relatively wide in a wide width section, and is, at a terminal part, relatively narrow in a second narrow width section.
