The bottom of the slipper device has a section at the heel and/or toe that is of an abrasive, scrubbing material which is attached to or attached over a section of absorbent material. This invention allows the user to scrub scuff marks and particles off the floor and dry the floor without bending to use the hands.
Claims17
A foot scrubbing mopping device to be worn on at least one foot of a user, said foot scrubbing mopping device comprising:
- an inner layer having a bottom region and an upper region defining an opening, for receiving the foot such that said upper region is adjacent a top of the foot and said bottom region is adjacent a bottom of the foot;
- an absorbent material covering at least a central portion of said bottom region of said inner layer, for mopping;
- and
- a scrubbing material covering a toe region of said bottom region of said inner layer, wherein said scrubbing material extends directly beneath toes of said user and wherein an outer bottom surface of said scrubbing material forms a continuous plane or unbroken surface with an outer bottom surface of said absorbent material such that downward pressure applied by said toes causes said scrubbing material to scrub a surface directly beneath said toes.
A foot scrubbing mopping device to be worn on at least one foot of a user, said foot scrubbing mopping device comprising:
- an inner layer having a bottom region and an upper region defining an opening, for receiving the foot such that said upper region is adjacent a top of the foot and said bottom region is adjacent a bottom of the foot;
- an absorbent material covering at least a central portion of said bottom region of said inner layer, for mopping;
- a scrubbing material covering a toe region of said bottom region of said inner layer, wherein said scrubbing material extends directly beneath toes of said user and wherein an outer bottom surface of said scrubbing material forms a continuous plane or unbroken surface with an outer bottom surface of said absorbent material such that downward pressure applied by said toes causes said scrubbing material to scrub a surface directly beneath said toes;
- a second scrubbing material covering a heel region of said bottom region of said inner layer, wherein said second scrubbing material extends beneath the heel of said user and wherein an outer bottom surface of said scrubbing material forms a continuous plane or unbroken surface with an outer bottom surface of said absorbent material such that downward pressure applied by said heel causes said scrubbing material to scrub a surface beneath said heel;
- an outer layer covering said upper regions of said inner layer, said inner layer being a waterproof layer;
- and
- said inner waterproof layer, said outer layer and said bottom layer being attached at an outer perimeter around the bottom of said mopping device and said outer layer and said inner waterproof layer being additionally attached at an upper outer perimeter of said mopping device around said opening.
