Abstract

Bei einer geteilten Zahnbürste mit auswechselbaren Bürstenköpfen (5) weist das Griffteil (3) ein abgewinkeltes, zungenförmiges, konisches Verbindungsstück (1) auf, das in einem konischen Hohlraum (8) des Bürstenkopfes paßt. Der Bürstenkopf (5) ist in zwei entgegengesetzten Stellungen auf das abgewinkelte Verbindungsstück (1) aufsteckbar. Dadurch kann der Bürstenkopf (5) in zwei verschiedene Winkelstellun­ gen zu dem Griffteil (3) gebracht werden, wodurch sich unterschiedliche Berührungsebenen mit den zu reinigenden Zahnflächen ergeben. With a split toothbrush with replaceable Brush heads (5), the handle part (3) has an angled, tongue-shaped, conical connecting piece (1), which in a conical cavity (8) of the brush head fits. The Brush head (5) is in two opposite positions the angled connector (1) can be plugged on. Thereby can the brush head (5) in two different angular positions gene brought to the handle part (3), whereby different levels of contact with those to be cleaned Tooth surfaces result.
