US Patent 9220391 Sponge holder

A sponge holder allows a user both to store new dry sponges in a dry environment and to hold and dry a wet sponge. The sponge holder comprises a dry container detachably coupled to a drying container. The dry container further comprises a lid that can be opened to insert the dry sponges. The lid should partially cover the sponge holder such that water cannot permeate the dry container which keeps the dry sponges dry and free of contamination. The drying container further comprises at least one open end through which the wet sponge can be placed, vents and a reservoir in order to allow the wet sponge to dry. The drying container can be detached from the drying container allowing for portability and ease of use.
