  • Patent number: 8137018
    Abstract: A bath sponge with integrated soap and a method of making the bath sponge. The method of making the bath sponge includes providing an assembly device formed with a base and two vertical posts. A polyethylene net is inserted over the top of the vertical posts and then the net is cut to a desired size. Folds are made in the net. Soap granules are poured into the net and are held within the folds, thereby remaining in the interior of the net. A rope is then tied around the net between the two posts, thereby stretching the rope so that the center of the net is joined thereby. The net is stretched making the folds alternate inside and outside of the net. The bath sponge is used for personal cleaning and bathing and allows the user to wash without the need for a separate soap.

  • Publication number: 20090089954
    Abstract: A bath sponge with integrated soap, the kind of sponges that are used for the skin care and cleaning, used when bathing or washing a zone of the body is described and made by a method that includes an assembly device formed with a base and two vertical posts, wherein a polyethylene net is inserted top to bottom down to the lower end of the vertical posts and, thereafter, the net is cut. As a consequence of the sliding of the net, folds are made in which soap granules or particles are poured, either scented or unscented, and, as a consequence of the folds, the soap granules or particles are held within the folds, remaining in the interior of the net. Subsequently, a rope, with a knot previously made in one of its ends, is passed around the net with the rope serving as a tying thread around the net and between the two posts, stretching the rope in such a manner that the center of the net is joined thereby. Then, another knot is made to assure that the thread which holds the net is fixed in place.
