Electric powered automatic bath brush and massager

Abstract

The electric powered automatic bath brush and massager comprises of two main components connected by a spring core enclosed in a flexible tube. The first stationary main component is mounted on the wall and contains two electric motors, the first electric motor moves a moving block up and down along two parallel tracks in the first main component through a gear set with a belt. A rotatable brush that can be handheld is connected to the first stationary main component through a spring core enclosed within a flexible tube to a second electric motor in the first main component. The rotatable brush can also be affixed to the moving block on the first stationary main component to allow hands-free movement of the rotatable brush by the electric motor through the gear set with the belt. The two electric motors may be controlled with either a remote control or a hard-wired control switch.

What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . An electric powered automatic bath brush and massager comprising: 
 a main component generally in a U-shape configuration with two opposing parallel tracks;    a moving block with a holder slidably engaged in the opposing parallel tracks in the main component;    a moving gear enclosed in the main component and rotably attached to the moving block;    a gear set enclosed in the main component pulling a belt in the main component wherein the belt is engaged to the moving gear to move the moving gear along with the moving block along the opposing parallel tracks;    a first electric motor engaged to the gear set to drive the gear set and controlled by a control panel; and    a second electric motor engaged to a spring core connected to a rotatable brush with a means to affix it to the holder in the moving block and controlled by the control panel;    wherein the rotatable brush can be hand-held to scrub and massage a user's body and can also be affixed to the moving block in the main component to effortlessly scrub and massage the back of the user.    
     
     
         2 . An electric powered automatic bath brush and massager as in  claim 1 , wherein the rotatable brush comprises of a circular brush base with handle attached to a flexible tube enclosing the spring core, a gear axis attached to the end of the spring core and engages a gear wheel in the circular brush base with handle, a brush cover with gears engaged to said gear wheel and supported by a spring that urges the brush cover away from engagement to the gear wheel, and a foam pad retained on the brush cover by an elastic band, wherein when the brush cover is pressed toward the brush base with handle the brush cover would rotate and scrub and massage the user's body surface that is in contact with the foam pad covering the brush cover.  
     
     
         3 . An electric powered automatic bath brush and massager as in  claim 1 , wherein the electric motors are energized by alternating currents (AC).  
     
     
         4 . An electric powered automatic bath brush and massager as in  claim 1 , wherein the electric motors are energized by direct currents (DC).  
     
     
         5 . An electric powered automatic bath brush and massager as in  claim 1 , wherein the control panel is connected to the electric motors with a wire.  
     
     
         6 . An electric powered automatic bath brush and massager as in  claim 1 , wherein the electric motors are remotely controlled by the control panel.  
     
     
         7 . An electric powered automatic bath brush and massager as in  claim 1 , wherein the main component is attached to a wall.  
     
     
         8 . An electric powered automatic bath brush and massager comprising: 
 a main housing with two opposing parallel tracks;    a moving block with a holder slidably engaged in the opposing parallel tracks in the main housing;    a moving gear enclosed in the main housing and rotably attached to the moving block;    a gear set enclosed in the main housing pulling a belt in the main housing wherein the belt is engaged to the moving gear to move the moving gear along with the moving block along the opposing parallel tracks;    a first electric motor engaged to the gear set to drive the gear set and controlled by a control panel; and    a second electric motor engaged to a spring core connected to a rotatable brush with a means to affix it to the holder in the moving block and controlled by the control panel;    wherein the rotatable brush can be hand-held to scrub and massage a user's body and can also be affixed to the moving block in the main housing to effortlessly scrub and massage the back of the user.    
     
     
         9 . An electric powered automatic bath brush and massager as in  claim 8 , wherein the rotatable brush comprises of a circular brush base with handle attached to a flexible tube enclosing the spring core, a gear axis attached to the end of the spring core and engages a gear wheel in the circular brush base with handle, a brush cover with gears engaged to said gear wheel and supported by a spring that urges the brush cover away from engagement to the gear wheel, and a foam pad retained on the brush cover by an elastic band, wherein when the brush cover is pressed toward the brush base with handle the brush cover would rotate and scrub and massage the user's body surface that is in contact with the foam pad covering the brush cover.  
     
     
         10 . An electric powered automatic bath brush and massager as in  claim 8 , wherein the electric motors are energized by alternating currents (AC).  
     
     
         11 . An electric powered automatic bath brush and massager as in  claim 8 , wherein the electric motors are energized by direct currents (DC).  
     
     
         12 . An electric powered automatic bath brush and massager as in  claim 8 , wherein the control panel is connected to the electric motors with a wire.  
     
     
         13 . An electric powered automatic bath brush and massager as in  claim 8 , wherein the electric motors are remotely controlled by the control panel.  
     
     
         14 . An electric powered automatic bath brush and massager as in  claim 8 , wherein the main component is attached to a wall.
