Cleaning Supply Belt

Abstract

A cleaning supply belt useful for carrying cleaning supplies, especially heavy trigger-type spray bottles of cleaning fluid, in a stable and comfortable manner for long periods of time. The supply belt includes a flexible, narrow waistbelt with a pair of large, flat, fabric load panels mounted in spaced fashion on each hip side of the waistbelt. Each load panel includes at least a lower central spray bottle pouch designed to receive and support a fluid spray bottle reservoir, and to hold it at an outward cant. The load panels conform to and substantially cover the hips of the wearer, while leaving the front and back of the waistbelt (and the wearer) uncovered and well-ventilated.

1 . A cleaning supply belt comprising:
 a relatively narrow, soft, flexible waistbelt configured to be secured around the waist, the belt having a front portion, side hip portions, and a back portion;   two spaced, separate, substantially flat fabric load panels having upper ends attached along substantially the entire length thereof to opposite hip sides of the waistbelt, with spacing between respective front and rear sides of the load panels sufficient to leave the front and back of the waistbelt uncovered, each load panel comprising an integral spray bottle pouch on an outer face of the panel at a lower central portion of the panel, wherein the load panels are made from a flexible, conforming, sturdy fabric able to drape over a wearer's hips.   
     
     
         2 . The cleaning supply belt of  claim 1 , wherein the load panels are circumferentially adjustable on the waistbelt. 
     
     
         3 . The cleaning supply belt of  claim 1 , wherein the load panels are removably attached to the waistbelt. 
     
     
         4 . The cleaning supply belt of  claim 1 , further including stop structure on at least one of the waistbelt and the load panels to maintain the load panels in a spaced relationship on the belt substantially centered over the side hip regions of the belt. 
     
     
         5 . In combination with a pair of cleaning fluid spray bottles, a cleaning supply belt comprising:
 a relatively narrow, soft, flexible waistbelt configured to be secured around the waist, the belt having a front portion, side hip portions, and a back portion;   two spaced, separate, substantially flat fabric load panels having upper ends attached along substantially the entire length thereof to opposite hip sides of the waistbelt, with spacing between respective front and rear sides of the load panels sufficient to leave the front and back of the waistbelt uncovered, each load panel comprising an integral spray bottle pouch on an outer face of the panel at a lower central portion of the panel, each spray bottle pouch including a spray bottle therein, wherein the load panels are made from a flexible, conforming, sturdy fabric able to drape over a wearer's hips.   
     
     
         6 . The combination of  claim 5 , wherein the spray bottle pouches have a height approximating the height of a fluid reservoir portion of the spray bottles, such that spray heads of the spray bottles are uncovered above the spray bottle pouches. 
     
     
         7 . The combination of  claim 6 , wherein the load panels include a horizontal pocket located above an upper end of the spray bottle pouches adjacent the uncovered spray head portions of their respective spray bottles. 
     
     
         8 . The combination of  claim 5 , wherein the spray bottle pouches are configured to hold their respective spray bottles with an outward cant such that heads of the spray bottles are angled away from outer faces of their respective panels. 
     
     
         9 . The cleaning supply belt of  claim 5 , further including stop structure on at least one of the waistbelt and the load panels to maintain the load panels in a spaced relationship on the belt substantially centered over the side hip regions of the belt.
