ABSTRACT:
A scrub brush intended primarily for hands and knees type scrubbing. The scrub brush has a substantially rectangular bristle block body of substantially uniform thickness. The bristle block has a rearward end and a forward end with a forwardly extending scraper thereon, terminating in a scraping edge extending transversely of the bristle block. The brush bristles extend downwardly from the bottom surface of the bristle block. A handle for the scrub brush comprises a grip extending longitudinally of the bristle block and a pair of supports which extend between the bristle block top surface and the grip near its forward and rearward ends. The grip has a gentle, longitudinal S-curve with the result that the grip forward end is spaced at a slightly greater distance from the upper surface of the bristle block than is the grip rearward end. The grip increases slightly in width and thickness from its rearward end to its rounded forward end. The configuration of the handle permits the brush to be grasped by the user's hand in a number of ways with the forward end of the bristle block facing toward or away from the user, and assures that the heel of the user's hand applies the bulk of the scrubbing force.
