Abstract

The holder for dental floss is made of plastics and is hoop-shaped and has an overall length of 105 mm including the finger knob. The body of the holder has a diameter of 3 mm and the ends (A,B) are formed in a ball shape of diameter 5 mm which have from outside to inside a 2 mm slot. The distance from the inner edge of one slot to that of the other is 86 mm. A thread of conventional dental floss has loops at either ends of it and an overall length of approximately 82 mm. The loops are fed into the slots in the ends of the holder and due to the length of the floss being shorter than the distance between the ends of the holder the floss is held under tension.

Description

ProduktbeschreibungProduct description Kunststoffbügel mit HandknaufPlastic bracket with hand knob

Länge gesamt 105 mm incl. Handknauf, ohne Handknauf 90 mm
Höhe gesamt 25 mm incl. Handknauf, ohne Handknauf 20 mm
Handknauf im Durchmesser 10 mm

Total length 105 mm including hand knob, without hand knob 90 mm
Total height 25 mm including hand knob, without hand knob 20 mm
Hand knob with a diameter of 10 mm
Thickness of the plastic bracket 3 mm in diameter

Der Bügel ist an den Enden A und B mit einer Kugel versehen, Durchmesser 5 mm, die von außen nach innen 2 mm eingeschlitzt sind. (siehe Punkt Aa und Bb der beiliegenden Zeichnung) Abstand von Innenkante (C) zu Innenkante (D) des Schlitzes beträgt 86 mm.The bracket is provided with a ball at ends A and B, Diameter 5 mm, which are slotted 2 mm from outside to inside. (see points Aa and Bb of the attached drawing) The distance from the inside edge (C) to the inside edge (D) of the slot is 86 mm.

Dazu ein Faden aus herkömmlicher Zahnseide, an den Enden mit einer Schlinge/Schlaufe versehen, im Durchmesser ca. 6-7 mm. Gesamtlänge des Zahnseidenfadens mit Schlinge/Schlaufe ca 82 mm.With a thread of conventional dental floss, at the ends provided with a noose / loop, with a diameter of approx. 6-7 mm. Total length of the dental floss thread with loop is approx. 82 mm.

Die Gesamtlänge des Zahnseidenfadens ist deshalb kürzer als der Abstand von C nach D, damit der eingelegte Zahnseidenfaden auf Spannung gehalten wird. The total length of the dental floss thread is therefore shorter than that Distance from C to D, so that the inserted dental floss thread on Tension is held.  

Handhabunghandling

Die Benutzung der Zahnseide wird durch diesen Bügel einfach und unproble­ matisch, zusätzlich erleichtert durch den Handknauf.The use of dental floss is easy and unproblematic with this bracket matic, additionally relieved by the hand knob.

Einlegen und austauschen der Zahnseide:
Der Bügel wird mit Daumen und Zeigefinger an den Punkten A und 13 leicht zusammengedrückt (gebogen), die Schlaufen/Schlingen an den Punkten C u. D eingelegt, anschließend wird der Druck von den Punkten A und B genommen. Dadurch, daß die Gesamtlänge des Zahnseidenfadens geringer ist, als der Abstand von Punkt C zu Punkt D, sitzt der Zahnseidenfaden auf Spannung.
Inserting and replacing the dental floss:
The bow is slightly pressed together with your thumb and forefinger at points A and 13 (bent), the loops / loops at points C and. D is inserted, then the pressure is removed from points A and B. Because the total length of the dental floss is less than the distance from point C to point D, the dental floss is tensioned.
