Tooth brush having improved efficiency of gingiva massage and plaque removal}

The present invention (Disclosure) relates to a toothbrush with improved gum massage and plaque removal efficiency, specifically can be obtained with a variety of elasticity and strength bristle effect with a single toothbrush, by the gum massage effect and a strong bristles by soft bristles It is possible to remove all plaques, evenly brush the entire complex oral structure, and get the same brushing effect as toothbrushes with various types of bristles, even for users with incorrect brushing habits. The present invention relates to a toothbrush which can provide gum massage and plaque removal efficiency.

This section provides background information related to the present disclosure which is not necessarily prior art.

Toothbrush is a very important tool for cleaning your teeth and maintaining your oral health. Proper brushing for oral health includes not only removing food debris, but also plaque removal. In addition, it is necessary to maintain the cleanliness and health of the gums supporting the teeth.

Hard bristles are useful for effectively removing plaque or food debris, which is a preliminary stage of tartar formation. However, hard bristles can damage gums and cause bleeding between teeth and gums.

On the other hand, soft bristles are useful to apply soft force to the gums to maintain effective gum health. However, if the bristles are soft, it is not suitable for many users of tartar, and there is a problem that is not effective in removing foreign matter between the gum and teeth.

In addition, for proper brushing, you need to brush in various directions depending on the location of the teeth. However, the oral structure of the human body, including the teeth, is a very complex three-dimensional shape. In addition, each person has a slightly different oral structure, and brushing habits are also different. Since the user cannot brush while visually observing, the brushing of a specific area may be incorrect depending on the brushing habit of the user.

On the other hand, the toothbrush sold on the market varies in shape, such as varying the height of the tips of the bristles or tilting the bristles themselves. Further, according to the thickness and strength of the bristles, they are sold in various ways such as fine hairs, ultrafine hairs, and high elasticity.

However, these toothbrushes have limitations in enabling effective brushing for a particular complex oral structure as a whole. Since bristles of a certain elasticity and strength are implanted at a certain angle, they cannot provide effective brushing effects for all users.

In other words, each person can provide effective brushing effect regardless of various oral structures and incorrect brushing habits, and in particular, the development of a toothbrush that can realize both the strong bristles necessary for plaque removal and the soft bristle effect to improve gum health. This is necessary.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Hereinafter, embodiments of the tooth massage and the plaque removal toothbrushes according to the present invention, which implement the improved tooth massage and plaque removal efficiency, will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

However, the intrinsic technical spirit of the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described below by the embodiments described below, and based on the intrinsic technical spirit of the present invention by the person skilled in the art It turns out that the embodiments described in the present invention encompass the range that can be easily proposed by the method of substitution or modification.

In addition, the terms used below are selected for convenience of description, and thus, in grasping the intrinsic technical spirit of the present invention, the terminology used herein is not limited to a dictionary meaning, and is properly interpreted in a meaning consistent with the technical spirit of the present invention. Should be.

1 is an enlarged perspective view of a head including a support protrusion and an embodiment of a toothbrush with improved gum massage and plaque removal efficiency according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a view illustrating a configuration and function of the support protrusion according to the present invention. .

Referring to FIG. 1, the toothbrush having improved gum massage and plaque removal efficiency according to the present embodiment includes a handle 20, a headrest 10, a support protrusion 13, and a bristle 11.

Handle portion 20 is a structure that the user grips.

The headrest 10 is disposed at one end of the handle portion 20 in a plate shape.

The support protrusion 13 is formed of a plurality of materials having different elasticities. It is hollow pillar shape having a hollow portion 12 on the inside, and is formed in a large one surface of the headrest 10.

The bristle 11 has a distal end disposed in the hollow 12 and fixed.

The support protrusion 13 may preferably include a first material 13-1 and a second material 13-2 having a lower elasticity than the first material 13-1. In addition, the first material 13-1 and the second material 13-2 may form one structure by adhering adjacently, or may be separated from each other to form a plurality of independent structures.

In addition, the toothbrush with improved gum massage and plaque removal efficiency according to the present embodiment may include support protrusions 13A and 13B having different heights.

The support protrusions 13A and 13B of different heights have different heights for supporting the bristles 11. The height of supporting the bristles 11 determines the range of displacement of the bristles. By arranging the support protrusions 13A and 13B of various heights on one headrest 10, it is possible to brush teeth evenly over the entire tooth structure of a complex uneven shape.

Referring to FIG. 2, by the first force 14-1 applied to the bristles 11, the highly elastic first material 13-1 is deformed and protrudes outward.

As described above, the first material 13-1 has greater elasticity than the second material 13-2. Pressure is applied to the bristles 11 while the user brushes their teeth. The bristles of the bristles 11 apply forces 14-1 and 14-2 to the support protrusion 13 from the inner side to the outer side. The first material 13-1 expands and contracts outward in the direction in which the first force 14-1 is applied. The deformed protruding action of the first material 13-1 causes the bristle 11 to bend more, so that the bristle 11 tip sweeps over the wider tooth surface.

On the other hand, the second material 13-2 has less elasticity than the first material 13-1. Even if the second force 14-2 is applied by the bristles 11, it is not stretched or deformed or smaller than the amount of stretch of the first material 13-1.

Therefore, in the toothbrush with improved gum massage and plaque removal efficiency according to the present invention, the amount of expansion and contraction of the support protrusion 13 varies depending on the direction of the forces 14-1 and 14-2 applied to the bristles 11 during the brushing process. As a result, the range in which the bristle 11 cleans the teeth becomes wider, and the curvature of the bristle 11 is warped.

That is, when brushing teeth with one toothbrush, both gum massage effect and plaque removal effect are possible.

In addition, even when the same bristle 11 is implanted in one toothbrush, the same effect as the toothbrush in which various kinds of bristles were planted can be obtained.

3 is a view showing a first embodiment of the support protrusion according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 3, in the support protrusion 13 according to the present embodiment, the first material 13-1 and the second material 13-2 are alternately along the columnar outer circumferential surface of the support protrusion 13. Can be arranged. The first material 13-1 and the second material 13-2 that are alternately arranged are stretched to different sizes in accordance with the directions of the forces 14-3 and 14-4.

In the general brushing method, the user grasps the handle 20 and reciprocates the headrest 10 in a specific direction. When the user reciprocates the headrest 10 along the directions of the forces 14-3 and 14-4, different brushing effects can be obtained according to the direction of the reciprocating movement.

4 is a view showing a first embodiment of the plurality of material arrangement combinations of the support protrusions of FIG. 3.

Referring to FIG. 4, the arrangement direction of the first material 13-1 and the second material 13-2 according to the present embodiment may be arranged differently depending on the position of the support protrusion 13.

In the first type arrangement A shown in FIG. 4, the arrangement directions of the first material 13-1 and the second material 13-2 of the different supporting protrusions 13 are the same. In this case, in order to obtain another brushing effect, it is necessary to change the reciprocating direction of the headrest 10 itself.

In the second type arrangement B shown in FIG. 4, the arrangement directions of the first material 13-1 and the second material 13-2 of the adjacent supporting protrusions 13 are different. Even if the reciprocating direction of the headrest 10 is maintained in one specific direction, the elasticity of the support protrusion 13 is different. Therefore, the bending characteristics of the bristles 11 fixed to the respective support protrusions 13 are different, and different brushing effects can be obtained.

 The bristles 11 are fixed to the hollow part 12, and the hollow part 12 is fixed to the headrest 10. The force applied to the bristles 11 depends on the reciprocating movement of the headrest 10. In order to change the reciprocating direction of the headrest 10, since the grip form of the handle 20 or the reciprocating direction of the user's arm must be changed, brushing teeth becomes very cumbersome.

By fusing the combination of the various arrangements A and B shown in FIG. 4, even if brushing while maintaining a specific angle, the first brim 13-1 and the second bridging material 13-2 exhibit different elasticities. Warpage and elastic properties of

In addition, referring to FIGS. 3 to 4, even with a user having an incorrect brushing habit, a more improved brushing effect can be provided.

5 is a view showing another embodiment of the headrest in the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 5, in the headrest 10 according to the present embodiment, a plurality of materials including a plurality of materials 10-1, 10-2, and 10-3 having different elasticities are alternately stacked.

As the protruding directions of the support protrusions 13, 13A, and 13B are bent in the brushing process, the displacement range of the bristles 11 may be more randomly extended.

In addition, the headrest 10 may further include a massage protrusion 10-4 formed on the opposite side on which the support protrusions 13, 13A, and 13B are formed. Massage protrusion 10-4, the pressure is applied to the gums during the brushing process to massage.

On the other hand, a support protrusion is disposed on one surface of the headrest, and a massage protrusion is formed on the rear surface, and the support protrusion and the massage protrusion are preferably arranged to correspond one to one.

In this case, the bristles planted inside the support protrusions are fixed to the massage protrusions.

According to this, the increase in the thickness of the headrest for the bristles of bristles can be alleviated.

This may improve an uncomfortable feeling that may occur as the thickness of the headrest increases (for example, the movement of the headrest in the mouth is not free or a problem of stimulating the cheek meat). Of course, the thin thickness of the headrest also has the advantage of forming a beautiful appearance.

6 is a view showing a second embodiment of the support projection according to the present invention, Figure 7a to 7b is a view showing an embodiment in which the support projection of Figure 6 embedded in the headrest.

6, the support protrusion 13 which concerns on this embodiment is the triangular shape which faces the outer peripheral surface of columnar shape, and the 1st material 13-1 and the 2nd material 13-2 which differ in elasticity are different. ) Are alternately placed.

As described above, the first material 13-1 has greater elasticity than the second material, and as the first material 13-1 moves in the protruding direction of the support protrusion 13, the degree of bending of the support protrusion may increase nonlinearly.

7A to 7B, the other end of the support protrusion 13 is disposed to be embedded on one surface of the headrest 10. In this case, the hollow part 12 includes a hair follicle extending from the hollow part 12 so that one surface of the headrest is recessed.

Since the support protrusion 13 is embedded in the headrest 10, the bristles 11 may also be embedded and fixed on one surface of the headrest 10. Therefore, the height of the tip of the bristles 11 exposed in one direction may be lowered.

In addition, referring to FIG. 7B, the headrest fixing plate 10 -B may be formed of the same material as the first material 13-1. The headrest fixing portion 10-B fixes the position of the first material 13-1 and can prevent the separation of the second material 13-2.

The support protrusion 13 can keep the height of the bristles low by lowering the buried position of the bristles by the recessed depth. On the other hand, the headrest buffer and the headrest fixing portion, while fixing the position of the support protrusion, there is an advantage that can also maintain the elasticity of the buried support protrusion (13) portion.
