Patent ID: 7144088

Claim:
A method of manufacturing mess sponges, comprising the steps of: (a) preparing a long-bar shaped sponge having continuous wavy pedals; (b) coiling and folding a first wavy pedal along an external periphery of said continuous wavy pedal of said sponge; (c) coiling and folding a second wavy pedal in an opposite direction with a distance from said first wavy pedal, wherein the distance from said second wavy pedal being larger than that from said first wavy pedal, and said two coiling and folding processes defining a central section; (d) repeating step (c) according to the length of said sponge to fold and press said central section with a distance from said second wavy pedal; (e) using a binder to wind said central section after completing step (d), and arranging a wrinkle produced during winding said binder to keep said binder in a loose condition; (f) passing an end of a rope through said binder, and the other end being tied into a knot and pressing said knot against said central section, and then pressing said binder against said central section to constitute a configuration having a plurality of pedals; (g) arranging said plurality of pedals near said central section, and folding a pedal disposed within said pedals outward to form a spiral member, and said remaining pedals being separated; and (h) cutting off a section remained after tying said binder to form a complete flower shape.
