Description

Multi-face vibration cleaning toothbrush

Technical Field

The present invention relates to a multi-sided cleaning toothbrush using vibration.

Background

The present invention relates to a multi-surface cleaning toothbrush using vibration, which includes a mode of moving toothbrush bristles using ultrasonic waves and sound waves. In order to maintain the health of human teeth, it is very important to remove foreign substances between the teeth by brushing the teeth. However, it is important to brush the teeth in any way, and a plurality of teeth are continuously arranged in an arc shape, and if each gap is not completely cleaned, foreign substances cannot be removed even though the teeth are brushed, and the remaining foreign substances become tartar, causing inflammation of gums, and if the teeth are not completely brushed, caries may be generated.

The conventional method of brushing teeth in a direction perpendicular to the teeth is commonly used, and the method causes a person to feel that the teeth are brushed cleanly from the standpoint of the person brushing the teeth, but actually, the effect of removing foreign matters between the teeth is not very remarkable. In order to improve the effect of removing foreign substances between teeth, it is necessary to brush teeth in the same direction as the direction in which the teeth stand, and it is also necessary to insert bristles between the teeth during brushing, and to use an interdental brush or the like.

In addition, since the teeth are polyhedral, it is difficult to brush the back or the upper surface of the teeth, especially, the back or the innermost molars and gum of the anterior teeth, because of the structure in the mouth.

Recently, a vibrating toothbrush is used to remove foreign substances between teeth by vibration, and thus a certain effect is exhibited in removing foreign substances, but brushing behind front teeth, or behind the innermost molars or other teeth, etc., is not easy because of the same structure as that of the conventional toothbrush except for the vibrator.

The "multi-surface cleaning toothbrush" originally registered in korean utility model registration No. 200391922 is intended to clean three surfaces of teeth, and korean patent registration No. 10-1661108 "sonic wave vibration tooth cleaner" is developed according to the structure of teeth, does not need to form a tooth socket shape into which teeth are inserted, is easy to replace bristles, can brush three surfaces at the same time, and provides a toothbrush cleaned by vibration. However, the former requires a tooth-by-tooth floor brush, which is still laborious, and it is difficult to brush teeth in a straight line because human teeth have portions arranged along a curved line and also have portions arranged along a straight line. In addition, the latter has the disadvantage of being difficult to place in the mouth due to its large size.

Disclosure of Invention

Problems to be solved by the invention

The present invention has been made to overcome the above-mentioned problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a multi-sided cleaning toothbrush which can clean teeth inside the mouth comprehensively by using vibration.

Means for solving the problems

Drawings

Fig. 1 to 6 are diagrams illustrating an embodiment of the present invention.

Best mode for carrying out the invention

A multi-face vibration cleaning toothbrush has a plurality of bristles 12 arranged in a plurality of rows on a base 11 of an elastic material, the base 11 being divided into three parts along its length direction to

The toothbrush has an I-shaped pattern in which the toothbrush is extended long and a U-shaped pattern in which the toothbrush is bent round, and the head 14 is coupled to a handle 16 of the toothbrush, so that the toothbrush can be easily cleaned along the arrangement of the teeth.

Detailed Description

The present invention will be described in detail with reference to the following accompanying drawings. Fig. 1 is a drawing showing an example of a toothbrush part of a vibrating multi-sided washing toothbrush according to the present invention. The pattern shown in the drawing is only an example, and a color with a clear contrast is selected for distinguishing colors or other components, and the scope of the right is not limited.

Bristles 12 are planted on the upper surface of the bottom 11, and bristles 12 are planted on the upper surface of the bristle fixing part 13 in order to fix the bristles 12. The bottom 11 is made of elastic material, and when the cymbal is stretched to the front or the back, the shape of the letter "I" is bent to be close to the shape of the letter "U", and the shape of the letter "I" is similar to that of a cymbal.

Since it is difficult to directly implant the bristles 12 in the bottom part 11, the bristles 12 are fixed to the upper surface of the bristle fixing part 13. The bristle fixing part 13 may be used for teeth, toothbrushes, etc. other than silicone, and may be made of any material that can fix bristles. Further, the bristle fixing part 13 may be deformed according to the movement of the base 12, and it is preferable to use a material having a certain degree of elasticity.

In the embodiment, the bristles 12 are grouped into 1 group of 2 rows, 6 rows of bristles are planted in total, and the number of bristles is different according to adults, children, infants or purposes of use.

In addition, the bristles used in the drawing are similar to those of a toothbrush generally used, and the same bristles as those used for an interdental brush may be used, in which case it may be easier to remove foreign substances between teeth, and other bristles of different shapes may be used.

Bristles may be planted on the upper surface of the base 11 without the bristle fixing part 12 according to the kind of bristles. For this reason, it is preferable to use a material having good elasticity and elasticity for the bottom. In addition, the tip portions of the bristles may be attached to the base 11 after being melted at high temperature.

To brush three sides of the teeth, the base 11 is folded into three parts, such a shape being shown in fig. 2. The number and kinds of bristles 12 formed on each side of the bottom 11 folded in three may be different, and the folded portion and the folded angle of the bottom 11 may be different according to necessity.

In this state, the vibrator is activated before brushing teeth, and then brushing teeth is performed, and the operation and structure of the vibrator have been described. However, when the vibrator is activated, the bristles 12 attached to three sides vibrate while removing foreign substances adhered to the teeth or between the teeth.

However, as shown in fig. 2, when the head is used in a folded state, the head is also elongated, and when a part in line with the teeth is brushed, the brush part is preferably bent in accordance with the shape of the front teeth when brushing the front teeth side.

Fig. 3 shows a model of teeth in which the front tooth side is curved and the molar side is in a linear state, so that it is important that the pattern of the toothbrush is changed according to the arrangement of the teeth in order to brush each tooth.

FIGS. 4 and 5 show a configuration in which bristles 12 are planted on a base 11, and the bristles are seen to be bent in a U-shape using a material having elasticity, according to an embodiment of the present invention, which is closer to an actual product.

Fig. 4 shows a state that the bottom 11 is bent according to the shape of the front teeth, and can be bent as shown in the drawing because the bottom 11 is made of an elastic material, and can brush each gap between the teeth because the bristles are operated by the vibrator in the bent state.

Fig. 5 shows that the bottom 11 forms an "I" shape. The bristles shown in fig. 4 and 5 are only one example, and the original bristles may be used as in the case of bristles or interdental brushes, etc., which are generally used. The interdental brush configuration is particularly advantageous in order that the bristles may enter between the teeth.

Fig. 6 shows a configuration in which the brush part is made circular. In fig. 6, the left side is a state in which the push button 15 of the handle portion 15 is pulled, and the right side is a state in which the push button of the handle portion 16 is pushed. When the button part 15 is pulled and the 1 st wing 17 and the 2 nd wing 18 are in a straight line, the button is pushed, the 1 st wing 17 rotates slightly rightward, and the 2 nd wing 18 rotates more than the 1 st wing, forming a v-shape. The 1 st wing 17 and the 2 nd wing 18 are combined with the head 14 shown in fig. 2,3, etc., and the head is in a straight line in the unfolded state of the 1 st wing 17 and the 2 nd wing 18, and the head is in a U shape as shown in fig. 3 in the v-shaped state. The two modes can be switched by stretching and pushing a button under the handle portion 16, the configuration shown in fig. 5.

In fig. 7, the 1 st wing 17 and the 2 nd wing 18 are shown, which may be the same as shown in fig. 6, or may be in combination with each wing as shown in fig. 6. In fig. 7, the 1 st wing 17 forms the 1 st rotation shaft 19 and then forms the 1 st hanging shaft 21, and the 2 nd wing 18 forms the 2 nd rotation shaft 20 and then forms the 2 nd hanging shaft 22. The 1 st rotation shaft 19 and the 2 nd rotation shaft 20 rotate about the same rotation shaft, and rotate about a rotation shaft formed in the handle portion 16. In addition, the 1 st hanging scroll 21 and the 2 nd hanging scroll 22 are operated by the hanging port 23 formed at the end of the button 15, and when the hanging port 23 is pushed or pulled in a state of being hung on the 1 st hanging scroll 21 and the 2 nd hanging scroll 22, the 2 nd hanging scroll 22 is in a circular shape without a hook, so that the pushing or pulling can be smoothly performed. The 1 st hanging shaft 21 is divided into an upper part and a lower part, a protruding part is arranged in the middle, and the shape of the ellipse middle part is concave, when the button 15 is pushed, the hanging interface 23 does not touch the uppermost end of the 1 st hanging shaft 21, but touches the protruding part, during the period, the inner side of the 2 nd hanging shaft 22 touches the hanging interface 23, and the 2 nd wing 18 rotates. When the button is pushed further inward, the hanging port 23 touches the end of the inner side of the 1 st hanging shaft 21, and the 1 st wing 17 rotates. That is, the 1 st blade 17 rotates later than the 2 nd blade 18, and the distance of movement is shortened, thereby forming a V-shape. The stretching operation will be reversed from the above description, and the "I" shape will be formed again.

By such a configuration, the head of the toothbrush is formed in an "I" shape or a "U" shape, and in each case, the toothbrush is put in accordance with the front tooth side or molar side model, and the teeth can be washed from the face by activating the vibrator. The head of the toothbrush can be replaced at any time, the toothbrush can be manufactured according to a simple structure, and the manufacturing unit price is also reduced.

Fig. 8 shows another embodiment, in which the configuration of the 1 st and 2 nd hitching shafts is different from that shown in fig. 6. As shown in FIG. 3, when the teeth of a person are washed from the left side to the right side, it is preferable that the toothbrush is changed in the order of "I" shape- "U" shape- "I" shape in order to completely clean the teeth. For this purpose, it is preferable to move the 1 st wing at 12-2-6 points and the 2 nd wing at 6-10-12 points. Such movement is different according to the patterns of the 1 st hanging scroll 21 and the 2 nd hanging scroll 22, and as described above, the time for which the inner wall is subjected to the force is different when the 1 st hanging scroll 21 and the 2 nd hanging scroll 22 are pulled or pushed. To maintain 3 positions, the 1 st and 2

nd hitching shafts

21 and 22 are divided into three parts, and the distance moved by the 1 st wing 17 and the 2 nd wing 18 is different according to the time of touching each part. If the patterns of the 1 st hanging scroll 21 and the 2 nd hanging scroll 22 are changed, the motion can be made in various positions as required.

Figure 9 shows another embodiment showing the joining of the base 11 at the 1 st wing 17 and the 2 nd wing 18. In order to move the 1 st wing 17 and the 2 nd wing 18, the handle portion is provided with a button which can be deformed into various shapes for use.

Fig. 10 shows another embodiment, instead of using buttons to move wings 1 and 2, using bearings to move the bristle sections more freely. However, when using bearings, excessive movement, for example, may cause brushing anomalies.

Fig. 11 shows another embodiment in which gears are used to make the moving distances of the 1 st blade 17 and the 2 nd blade 18 different when the 1 st blade 17 and the 2 nd blade 18 are operated. The gear attached to the 1 st wing 17 and the gear attached to the 2 nd wing 18 have different sizes or numbers of revolutions from each other, and if the number of revolutions of the 2 nd gear 25 is more than the number of revolutions of the 1 st gear 24, as a result, the 2 nd wing 18 will move more, possibly to become the same form as fig. 4. In the present invention, when moving the 1 st wing 17 and the 2 nd wing 18, if a gear is used, the distance of movement of each wing can be made different by adjusting the density or the sparseness of the screw thread of the gear located at the center. With this configuration, the angle formed by the wings can be made different.

Figure 12 also shows another embodiment, using springs to effect movement of wing 1, 17 and wing 2, 18. As described above, if the 1 st wing 17 and the 2 nd wing 18 respectively move to and from two positions, the original position can be returned by the restoring force when the pushing or stretching force disappears after the pushing or stretching by the spring as shown in the figure. The 2 nd wing 18 on the left side in fig. 7 is normally in a stretched state, and when the button holding the 2 nd wing 18 is pushed, it can return to the upper side by the restoring force, and the 1 st wing can move in the same principle. The position where the restoring force is generated can be changed if the direction of operation of the spring is reversed.

FIG. 13 shows another embodiment, showing a head down attachment configuration. Since the teeth of a person face each other in the vertical direction, if the two heads are attached to each other as shown in fig. 13, the lower teeth and the upper teeth can be brushed simultaneously, and the respective heads can move independently of each other.

Fig. 14 shows another embodiment, in which a 1 st hanging shaft 21 and a 2 nd hanging shaft 22 are formed at a 1 st wing 17 and a 2 nd wing 18, respectively, a 1 st rotating shaft 19 and a 2 nd rotating shaft 20 are attached together to rotate around the rotating shafts, a 2 nd wing 18 is disposed on the 1 st wing 17, and the 1 st wing 17 and the 2 nd wing 18 can be divided into a bottom portion where bristles are planted and a rotation portion formed by the 1 st rotating shaft 19 and the 1 st hanging shaft 21. The rotation portion is formed from the bottom portion toward the lower surface of the threshold, and the boundary portion between the rotation portion and the bottom portion is formed in a circular shape so that the 2 nd wing 18 placed thereon can rotate. The 1 st hanging scroll 21 forms an arc shape along the rotation axis, the 2 nd hanging scroll 22 presents a hole shape, the 2 nd wing 18 is arranged on the 1 st wing to rotate, the adjusting end 31 capable of rotating left and right is formed at the end of the button 15, the adjusting end 31 is fixed on the 2 nd hanging scroll 22 and can move in the space of the 1 st hanging scroll, when the adjusting end 31 moves left and right at the end of the button, the 2 nd wing 18 is arranged on the 1 st wing to move, the 1 st wing 17 and the 2 nd wing 18 can be positioned at different positions according to the degree of hanging the adjusting end 31 on the 1 st hanging scroll 21, if the 1 st wing 17 moves, the position of the 1 st hanging scroll 21 also changes, and the degree of moving is different from that of the 2 nd wing 18 because the 1 st hanging scroll 21 is in a long shape. Fig. 14 shows only the 1 st wing, the 2 nd wing, the button and the adjustment end 31. The rotation part may be formed at any one of the 1 st wing or the 2 nd wing side.

Figures 15, 16, 17 show the movement of wing 1, 17 and wing 2, 18 based on the movement of the button and adjustment end 31. The positions of the 1 st wing 17 and the 2 nd wing 18 can be changed according to the patterns of the 1 st hanging scroll 21 and the 2 nd hanging scroll 22.
