Abstract:
1. A disposable perineum cleaning device, consisting of: a liquid reservoir of a resilient synthetic material having an open top thereof, and a depression on a bottom thereof; a combination including a reservoir cap, a discharge tube, and a spray nozzle, said combination being releasably mounted on said open top through locking means, with cleaning liquid being forced, upon pressing said liquid reservoir, from said liquid reservoir through an opening in said reservoir cap into said discharge tube and successively into said spray nozzle; said reservoir cap being releasably attached to said reservoir through locking means and having an opening where the bottom end of said discharge tube is inserted; said discharge tube having one bottom end inserted in said opening of said reservoir cap, and being connected with said spray nozzle at the top end; a tissue holder comprising a stem portion and a clamp portion; said stem portion being releasably attached at its base through fastening means to said depression within said liquid reservoir, said stem portion being connected at the opposite end of said stem portion to said clamp portion through a connecting structure; said connecting structure comprising a lower arm, an upper arm and a flexing wall, said lower arm being attached to said stem portion at one extremity and to the lower half of said clamp portion at the other extremity, said upper arm being connected to the upper half of said clamp portion at one tip and being shaped into a lever at the other tip, said upper arm and said lower arm being parallel to each other and being connected through said flexing wall, which runs perpendicular to said lower arm and said upper arm and which causes said clamp portion to open when said lever is depressed thereby bending said flexing wall, and to close when said lever is released and said flexing wall returns to a straight position; said clamp portion consisting of two matching halves, with said lower half of said clamp portion being attached to said lower arm of said connecting structure, and said upper half of said clamp portion being attached to said upper arm of said connecting structure.
