Description

  

  Brosse pour dentiers.    L'objet de l'invention est une brosse pour  le nettoyage de dentiers.  



  On remarque que souvent les dentiers  sont recouverts d'une pellicule grasse formée  de résidus d'aliments et y adhérant d'une  manière extrêmement forte, en particulier à  l'intérieur des crochets, s'il y en a. Une telle  pellicule est dangereuse pour l'hygiène de la  bouche, parce qu'elle fermente et s'acidifie  facilement en donnant une mauvaise odeur,  en déminéralisant les dents naturelles qui  peuvent rester et en provoquant des caries  rapides et désastreuses.  



  La brosse selon l'invention est établie  de manière 'à permettre un nettoyage effectif  et rationnel des dentiers par enlèvement de  la pellicule en     question.    Elle présente dans  ce but deux groupes allongés de soies, cha  que groupe ayant longitudinalement une for  me bombée et les deux groupes étant séparés  par un sillon relativement large.  



  Le dessin annexé représente, à titre  d'exemple, une forme d'exécution de la brosse.  Les     fig.    1 et 2 en sont une vue de face  et une élévation latérale;    La     fig.    3 en est une coupe par la ligne       III-III    de la     fig.    1;  Les     fig.    4, 5, 6, 7 se rapportent à son  emploi.  



  Cette forme d'exécution, faite par exemple  en bois, en celluloïd, comporte un corps a de  forme rectangulaire et un manche     b    de forme  générale triangulaire pouvant être solidement  saisi à la main.  



  Le corps a porte deux groupes c d de  soies qui ont, vus de face, la forme générale  d'un rectangle à angles arrondis de grande  surface et sont parallèles. l'un à l'autre.  Chacun des groupes de soies a une forme  bombée aussi bien dans le sens longitudinal  que dans le sens transversal. Ils sont séparés  par un sillon e moins large qu'eux.  



  Dans celle des extrémités du corps a qui  est opposée au manche b sont vissés, de       façon    amovible, deux organes<I>f</I>     g    présentant  des soies et ayant, l'un la forme d'un tronc  de cône rectiligne, l'autre celle d'un tronc de  cône dont la partie supérieure est recourbée;  ils servent au nettoyage intérieur des crochets  des dentiers et au nettoyage des parties  palatines     difficilement    accessibles.      Le manche b présente un trou h permet  tant de suspendre la brosse pour la faire  sécher.  



  Les     fig.    4 et 5 montrent qu'en faisant  aller et venir cette forme d'exécution on  peut nettoyer longitudinalement et transver  salement la face inférieure de la voûte     r    du  palais du dentier i d'une façon énergique et  complète, la longueur de chaque groupe étant  choisie en conséquence.

   Chacun des groupes  <I>c d</I> de soies peut néanmoins être introduit  séparément de l'autre dans l'une des     cavités     (dites     "vestibules")    de la face supérieure de  cette voûte     r        (fig.    6) pour la débarrasser de  la pellicule; sa forme bombée longitudinale  facilite sa pénétration dans n'importe     quelle     partie des dentiers, sans lui imposer une  fatigue trop grande. Enfin les ,organes f g  peuvent être enfilés dans les crochets     7c        (fig.    7)  pour enlever la partie de la pellicule qui s'y  trouve; ils peuvent aussi servir au nettoyage  des parties palatines difficilement accessibles.

    On se rend compte ainsi que la forme d'exé  cution, grâce aux dispositions prises,     permet     un nettoyage complet et énergique de toutes  les parties du dentier.  



  Les brosses mises dans le commerce pour  raient ne pas avoir d'organes f pour les  dentiers partiels et pourraient être pourvues  d'organes f pour les dentiers complets. Il y  aurait donc des brosses avec et saris organes f.  



  La forme et les dispositions du corps de  la brosse et du manche, des groupes de soies  et des organes disposés à l'extrémité avant  du corps, le nombre de ceux-ci ainsi que la  largeur du sillon peuvent différer suivant les  besoins de ceux qui ont été indiqués: Les    groupes de soies peuvent ne pas présenter  transversalement une forme bombée : le ou  les organes f peuvent être fixés à demeure  au corps; il peut y avoir un seul de ces  organes; le manche peut avoir une forme  ovoïde; son<B>trou</B> peut être supprimé.



  Dentures brush. The object of the invention is a brush for cleaning dentures.



  We notice that dentures are often covered with a greasy film formed from food residues and adhering to them in an extremely strong way, especially inside the hooks, if there are any. Such a film is dangerous for the hygiene of the mouth, because it ferments and acidifies easily, giving a bad odor, demineralizing the natural teeth that may remain and causing rapid and disastrous caries.



  The brush according to the invention is designed so as to allow effective and rational cleaning of dentures by removing the film in question. It has for this purpose two elongated groups of bristles, each group having a longitudinal convex shape and the two groups being separated by a relatively wide groove.



  The accompanying drawing shows, by way of example, an embodiment of the brush. Figs. 1 and 2 are a front view and a side elevation; Fig. 3 is a section through the line III-III of FIG. 1; Figs. 4, 5, 6, 7 relate to its use.



  This embodiment, made for example of wood, of celluloid, comprises a body a of rectangular shape and a handle b of generally triangular shape which can be firmly grasped by hand.



  The body has two groups c d of bristles which, when seen from the front, have the general shape of a rectangle with rounded angles of large surface and are parallel. to one another. Each of the groups of bristles has a convex shape both in the longitudinal direction and in the transverse direction. They are separated by a furrow less wide than them.



  In that of the ends of the body a which is opposite to the handle b are screwed, removably, two members <I> f </I> g having bristles and having, one in the shape of a rectilinear truncated cone, the other that of a truncated cone, the upper part of which is curved; they are used for cleaning the inside of denture hooks and for cleaning difficult-to-access palatal parts. The handle b has a hole h so that the brush can be hung up to dry.



  Figs. 4 and 5 show that by moving this embodiment back and forth, the underside of the arch r of the denture's palate i can be cleaned longitudinally and transversely in an energetic and complete manner, the length of each group being chosen Consequently.

   Each of the <I> cd </I> groups of bristles can nevertheless be introduced separately from the other into one of the cavities (called "vestibules") of the upper face of this arch r (fig. 6) to free it. film; its curved longitudinal shape facilitates its penetration into any part of the dentures, without imposing too much fatigue on it. Finally, the organs f g can be threaded into the hooks 7c (FIG. 7) to remove the part of the film which is there; they can also be used for cleaning difficult to access palatal parts.

    We thus realize that the form of execution, thanks to the measures taken, allows a complete and energetic cleaning of all the parts of the dentures.



  Brushes put on the market might not have f-organs for partial dentures and could be provided with f-organs for full dentures. So there would be brushes with and saris organs f.



  The shape and arrangement of the body of the brush and the handle, of the groups of bristles and of the members arranged at the front end of the body, the number of these as well as the width of the groove may differ according to the needs of those who have been indicated: The groups of bristles may not have a rounded shape transversely: the organ (s) f may be permanently attached to the body; there can be only one of these organs; the handle may have an ovoid shape; its <B> hole </B> can be deleted.
