Abstract

"ESCOVA DE DENTES, E, PROCESSO DE POSSIBILITAR A UMA CERTA ESCOVA DE DENTES PODER SER IDENTIFICADA" Uma escova de dentes (10) inclui um cabo (12), uma cabeça (14) que se estende a partir do cabo, e uma multiplicidade de cerdas (16) que se estendem a partir da cabeça. Pelo menos uma porção da escova de dentes é de uma primeira cor antes que a porção seja exposta a líquido pela primeira vez. A porção muda para uma segunda cor depois que a porção tenha sido exposta a líquido por um período de tempo que é menor do que o tempo acumulado que se passa durante cinco utilizações típicas da escova de dentes para escovar os dentes de uma pessoa. A mudança em cor é provocada pela remoção da escova de pelo menos parte da porção pelo líquido. A mudança em cor é perceptível pelo olho humano sem auxílio. Também, a escova de dentes pode ser identificada dentre uma ou mais outras escovas de dentes que parecem substancialmente idênticas a certas escovas de dentes quando vista com o olho humano sem auxílio, por meio da utilização de fixadores de cerdas de diferentes materiais."TOOTH BRUSH, E, PROCESS OF ENABLING A RIGHT TOOTH BRUSH CAN BE IDENTIFIED" A toothbrush (10) includes a handle (12), a head (14) extending from the handle, and a multiplicity bristles (16) extending from the head. At least a portion of the toothbrush is a first color before the portion is exposed to liquid for the first time. The portion changes to a second color after the portion has been exposed to liquid for a period of time that is less than the accumulated time that passes during five typical uses of the toothbrush to brush a person's teeth. The change in color is caused by removing the brush from at least part of the portion by the liquid. The change in color is noticeable to the human eye without assistance. Also, the toothbrush can be identified among one or more other toothbrushes that look substantially identical to certain toothbrushes when viewed with the human eye without assistance, through the use of bristle holders of different materials.
