Sonic exfoliating glove

A sonic exfoliating glove comprising:

• a main body or glove shaped member having a hand receiving portion with a hand receiving opening therein, four finger receiving portions, and a thumb receiving portion, the main body or glove shaped member defining a palm surface overlying a palm and finger and thumb pads of a hand inserted therein;
• six exfoliating pads or elements fixedly attached to the palm surface, five of the six exfoliating pads or elements fixedly attached to the four finger receiving portions and the thumb receiving portion, one each, adjacent an end of the associated portion and generally overlying the finger and thumb pads of the respective finger or thumb, a sixth exfoliating element fixedly attached approximately centrally to the main body or glove shaped member, so as to overly a central portion of the palm, and the six exfoliating pads or elements being rigid with an abrasive outer surface or bristles extending from the outer surface;
• a wrist band attached to the hand receiving opening of the main body or glove shaped member coaxial with the hand receiving opening;
• six electric vibrating motors mounted on the wrist band, the six electric vibrating motors are energizable to vibrate at a sonic rate, the wrist band being sufficiently rigid to allow substantially all movement of the six electric vibrating motors to be transferred to the six exfoliating pads or elements;
• and
• six connecting rods or elements connected at one end to the six electric vibrating motors, one each, and at another end to the six exfoliating pads or elements, one each.

A method of fabricating a sonic exfoliating glove comprising the steps of:

• providing a main body or glove shaped member, the glove shaped member having a hand receiving portion with a hand receiving opening therein, four finger receiving portions, and a thumb receiving portion, and the glove shaped member defining a palm surface overlying a palm and finger and thumb pads of a hand inserted therein;
• providing six exfoliating pads or elements;
• fixedly attaching the six exfoliating pads or elements to the palm surface of the glove shaped member so that five of the six exfoliating pads or elements are fixedly attached to the four finger receiving portions and the thumb receiving portion, one each, adjacent an end of the associated portion and generally overlying the finger and thumb pads of the respective finger or thumb, and a sixth exfoliating element is fixedly attached approximately centrally to the main body or glove shaped member, so as to overly a central portion of the palm;
• providing at least one vibrating motor;
• fixedly mounting the at least one vibrating motor on the main body or glove shaped member;
• providing six connecting rods or elements;
• and
• connecting the six connecting rods or elements at one end to the at least one vibrating motor and at another end to the six exfoliating pads or elements, one each, whereby vibration of the at least one vibrating motor is transmitted to the six exfoliating pads or elements.
