Abstract

A kit for providing either a dry wipe, a wet wipe, or a warm wet wipe, on-demand, is provided. The kit may comprise a first container comprising dry wipes disposed therein, a second container comprising a heat-generating composition disposed therein, and a third container comprising a cleaning composition disposed therein.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A kit for providing a dry wipe, a wet wipe, or a warm wet wipe, on-demand, the kit comprising:
 (a) a first container for storing and dispensing a dry wipe and comprising at least one dry wipe disposed therein;   (b) a second container for storing and dispensing a heat-generating composition and comprising the heat-generating composition disposed therein, the heat-generating composition comprising at least one heating agent; and   (c) a third container for storing and dispensing a cleaning composition and comprising the cleaning composition disposed therein, the cleaning composition being exothermically reactable with the heat-generating composition.   
   
   
       2 . The kit according to  claim 1  wherein the first, second, and third container are packaged in a common package or held in assembly. 
   
   
       3 . The kit according to  claim 1  wherein the kit further comprises graphics, charts, visuals cues, indicia or combination thereof for communicating to a consumer that the kit provides either dry wipes by pulling out wipes from the first container, and/or wet wipes by dispensing the cleaning composition from the third container onto the dry wipes from the first container, and/or warm wet wipes by dispensing the cleaning composition from the third container and the heat-generating composition from the second container onto the dry wipes from the first container. 
   
   
       4 . The kit according to  claim 1  wherein the second and/or third container(s) are selected from the group consisting of spray bottles, pump-dispensers, foaming pump-dispensers, sticks, roll-on dispensers, tubes, bottles, and combinations thereof. 
   
   
       5 . The kit according to  claim 5  wherein the second and/or third container(s) are actuable by a user, such that a predetermined amount of the heat-generating composition and/or a predetermined amount of cleaning composition is dispensed with each actuation. 
   
   
       6 . The kit according to  claim 1  wherein the second and/or third containers are selected from the group consisting of spray bottles, pump-dispensers, foaming pump-dispensers, sticks, roll-on dispensers, tubes, bottles, combinations thereof, and wherein the second and/or third container are adapted to be actuated by a user, such that a predetermined amount of the heat-generating composition and/or a predetermined amount of cleaning composition are dispensed with each actuation, and wherein the kit comprises a set of instructions for communicating to a consumer a relationship between the number of actuations of the third container and the wetness of the wipes after the cleaning composition has been applied to the dry wipes. 
   
   
       7 . The kit according to  claim 1  wherein the second and/or third containers are selected from the group consisting of spray bottles, pump-dispensers, foaming pump-dispensers, sticks, roll-on dispensers, tubes, bottles, combinations thereof, and wherein the second and/or third container are adapted to be actuated by a user, such that a predetermined amount of the heat-generating composition and/or a predetermined amount of cleaning composition are dispensed with each actuation, and wherein the kit comprises graphics, charts, visuals cues, indicia or combinations thereof for communicating to a consumer a relationship between the number of actuations of the second container and a temperature increase of the wipes after the heat-generating compositions and cleaning composition have been applied to the dry wipes. 
   
   
       8 . The kit according to  claim 1  wherein the kit comprises a fourth container for receiving at least one of the heat-generating composition dispensed from the second container and the cleaning composition dispensed from the third container, the fourth container being able to help a user impregnate the dry wipes with at least one of the heat-generating composition, the cleaning composition, or a mixture of these. 
   
   
       9 . The kit according to  claim 1  wherein the heat-generating composition is anhydrous. 
   
   
       10 . The kit according to  claim 1  wherein the at least one heating agent is selected from the group consisting of salts of calcium, magnesium, aluminum, sodium, and potassium; zeolites; metals; slaked lime; quick lime; glycols; and combinations thereof. 
   
   
       11 . The kit according to  claim 1  wherein the cleaning composition is in a liquid, solid or concentrated form.
