  • the remaining maintenance fluid can be used for at least Another oral care regimen can be used without in the meantime there is a risk that the care fluid will leak.
  • the tank section has a particular groove-shaped Deepening into which the care section when not in use is at least partially preferably receivable in such a way that the care head is arranged in the region of the fluid outlet.
  • This configuration enables the use of a comparatively simply designed cover cap, since the one to be closed by the cover cap Fluid outlet and the one to be at least partially covered at the same time Lay the care head close together. A simple and inexpensive Manufacturing and a further space saving are thus made possible.
  • the oral care device According to a further embodiment of the oral care device according to the invention are the tank section, the care section and the cover cap to a compact overall body with minimal space requirements can be assembled, the one of projections substantially free from the outside Surface.
  • the oral care device can be easily handbags or even bags of clothing and thus transported can be easily taken to any occasion.
  • the cover cap with a projection designed in particular as a plug provided that the fluid outlet of the Closes the tank section.
  • a projection designed in particular as a plug provided that the fluid outlet of the Closes the tank section.
  • the care section when not in use, preferably in the area of the care head attached cover cap held captive.
  • the cover cap thereby serves not just as a closure and cover, but at the same time also as a holding element for the care section, and thus ensures simple way for the cohesion of all individual parts of the invention Oral care device.
  • the cap is preferred when in use snapping onto a floor area preferably opposite the fluid outlet of the tank section attachable. This is the cover cap useful even while using the oral care device by it enlarges the tank section and in this way one for the User creates more manageable grip body.
  • cover cap can not be lost, which in particular with regard to a possibly desired multiple use is an advantage.
  • the Flow connection between the cavity and the fluid outlet opening the tank section and the care section can be screwed together. A technically problem-free and yet stable and simple handling of the coupling of the two parts is created by it.
  • a fluid inlet opening of the Care section in the assembled state by a preferred cover plate formed integrally on the tank section and / or by a can be canceled by coupling the care section with the tank section Fluid barrier closed.
  • the oral care device according to the invention becomes a Achieved advantageous effect aesthetically.
  • This effect also has a psychological benefit for the user because it contains the care fluid to be used in oral care before Use sees.
  • the use of a colored care fluid can do this Increase effects.
  • the oral care device according to the invention is a disposable article especially for airlines and railroad companies, restaurants, etc., their Customers and guests a simple and inexpensive way to Want to offer oral care, advantageous because of the simple structure of the oral care device according to the invention their mass production at low Unit costs enabled.
