Definitions

  • the subject-matter of the invention is a new form of a toothbrush.
  • the toothbrushes are commonly produced in a form of the head provided with horsehair and fitted to a stiffened hand grip.
  • toothbrushes are produced in a form of one-block hand grip furnished with the element covered with horsehair, which is introduced into the structure of the toothbrush or attached to it.
  • the head fitted to the hand grip is a disposable element guaranteeing preservation of hygiene.
  • the cleaning medium is applied directly on horsehair from a tube or from any other type of container.
  • the realization consists in forming a space for the paste in the structure of the toothbrush hand grip.
  • the toothbrush can be used as long as there is the paste in the container. Flexibility of the material, from which the hand grip is made, results in that the pressure necessary for tooth cleaning deforms the hand grip (in this case being the tube) and initiates further discharge of the paste during tooth cleaning.
  • the hand grip of such toothbrush is made of a stiff material, what guarantees a sufficient pressure during tooth cleaning; and only a part of it is made of a flexible material to facilitate squeezing out of the paste. It is also applicable to place a piston in a part of the toothbrush hand grip, which is pressed in direction towards the toothbrush head in a way according to the patent description CN 2691359 . This makes possible to use the whole content of the container with the paste.
  • the toothbrush equipped with the container to deposit the paste has been described; the described toothbrush has such the hand grip that can be folded and thanks to this it can be used for example in the trip (because of its small dimensions after folding).
  • the toothbrush according to the invention has a solid body containing at least two lengthwise bend lines and at least two, preferably three, crosswise bend lines.
  • the lengthwise bend lines are preferably symmetrical ones and their shape is close to a sinusoid.
  • the container On the end of the toothbrush body there is the container to deposit the medium applied in tooth cleaning, which is terminated in a small hole to be opened by removal of a fragment of the toothbrush body.
  • the container is formed in a way that facilitates proportioning of the paste, for example by means of side forming of its shape.
  • the rounded head provided with horsehair enabling effective cleaning of tooth surface and ensuring protection against cuts or scratches.
  • the toothbrush in accordance with the invention is made of stiff paper or plastic subjected to quick biodegradation on which any information (i.e. advertisement) can be printed.
  • the subject-matter according to the invention has been presented in the figures where Fig.1 shows the folded toothbrush before its application from a side view, Fig.2 shows the folded toothbrush from top view, Fig.3 shows the unfolded toothbrush from a side view and Fig.4 shows the unfolded toothbrush from a top view.
  • the body 1 of the toothbrush has lengthwise bend lines 2, two crosswise bend lines 3 and additional lengthwise bend line 4 on its surface, which are useful during packaging and application of the said toothbrush.
  • the lengthwise bend lines 2 are shaped symmetrically and their shape is close to a sinusoid.
  • the container 4 to deposit the cleaning medium is placed which is provided with the plug 5 to be ripped off and having such a form, which facilitates portioning of the paste (by squeezing).
  • the toothbrush head 6 On the opposite end of the body 1 the toothbrush head 6 is situated. On the plane opposite in relation to the container 4, it is provided with horsehair 7 to clean teeth.
  • the toothbrush in accordance with the invention complies with all hygienic and sanitary requirements determining the usefulness of toothbrushes for hygiene of oral cavity. Moreover, thanks to its small dimensions when folded - it ensures comfort of application and a high functional quality.
  • the surface of the toothbrush according to the invention can also be a carrier of overprinted advertisements of e.g. hotels, dentist's consulting rooms or other institutions.
