Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Bürste, insbesondere eine Bürste für die Körperpflege, speziell für die Gesichtspflege.The present invention relates to a brush, in particular a brush for personal care, especially for facial care.
Im Stand der Technik ist eine Bürste für die Gesichtspflege bekannt. Diese hat einen Handgriff, der einen Antrieb in sich aufnimmt, dessen Antriebswelle mit einem drehbar gelagerten Träger verbunden ist, der eine Vielzahl von Borstenbündeln hält, so dass bei der Drehung des Trägers und Andrücken der Borstenbündel mit ihren reinigungsseitigen Enden gegen die Oberfläche der Haut eine schrubbende bzw. massierende Bewegung vollzogen wird (z. B.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt das Problem zugrunde, eine verbesserte Bürste, insbesondere für die Gesichtspflege, anzugeben.The present invention is based on the problem of providing an improved brush, in particular for facial care.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird in der vorliegenden Erfindung eine Bürste gemäß Anspruch 1 definiert. Diese Bürste hat mehrere Träger, die Reinigungselemente aufweisen. Als Reinigungselemente in diesem Sinne werden beispielsweise Borstenfilamente umfassende Borstenbündel oder Reinigungselemente aus einem weichelastischen Kunststoff wie beispielsweise TPE, verstanden. Solche Reinigungselemente können jeweils für sich oder in Kombination miteinander an dem Träger vorgesehen sein. Jeder Träger hat üblicherweise mehrere solcher Reinigungselemente, die bevorzugt im Wesentlichen auf der gesamten Oberfläche des Trägers vorgesehen sind und diese Oberfläche durchragen. Dabei können die Reinigungselemente mit an sich bekannten Verfahren zur Befestigung von Reinigungselementen an einem Träger mit diesem Träger verbunden sein, beispielsweise mittels Ankern oder ankerlos (vgl. beispielsweise
Die Träger, vorzugsweise jeder Träger, ist verschwenkbar an einem Gehäuse gelagert. Dazu haben die entsprechenden Träger jeweils eine Welle, die bevorzugt einteilig an dem Träger ausgebildet ist und um deren Achse der Träger schwenkt. Als Schwenken wird dabei streng genommen eine Rotationsbewegung um die entsprechende Achse um weniger als 360° verstanden. So können Anschläge vorgesehen sein, die eine echte Drehbewegung verhindern. Allerdings kann der Träger zusammen mit der Achse auch rotieren, wobei eine solche rotierende Bewegung als verschwenkbar im Sinne von Anspruch 1 anzusehen ist. Das Merkmal bedeutet insbesondere, dass der Träger beweglich für eine rotatorische Bewegung um die durch die Welle gebildete Achse gelagert ist. Die Verschwenkbarkeit bzw. Drehbarkeit des Trägers ergibt sich dadurch, dass die Träger üblicherweise verdrehfest mit der dem Träger jeweils zugeordneten Welle verbunden sind, wobei die Welle schwenkbar bzw. drehbar in dem Gehäuse gelagert ist. Mit der drehenden Welle wird auch der Träger gedreht oder geschwenkt. Der Träger ist üblicherweise aus Kunststoff, in der Regel einer Hartkomponente wie PP, ABS, PA, PBT oder PE, gebildet. Zur Herstellung des Trägers und zur Verbindung des Trägers mit den Reinigungselementen kann jede, insbesondere aus dem Bereich der Zahnbürsten bekannte Technik zur Anwendung kommen. Gleiches gilt für die dort verwendeten Materialien für den Träger und/oder die Reinigungselemente. Das Gehäuse besteht bevorzugt ebenfalls aus Kunststoff. Erfindungsgemäß stützt das Gehäuse eine gemeinsame Antriebswelle ab, die für die Träger vorgesehen ist und die mit den Wellen der Träger antriebsgekoppelt ist. Die Kopplung erfolgt dabei üblicherweise über Zahnräder, bevorzugt über ein Getriebe, welches eine Unter- oder Übersetzung haben kann, um die Drehzahl eines Antriebs zu der Antriebswelle gegenüber der Drehzahl der Welle der Träger zu verändern. Das Gehäuse kann dabei auch gleichzeitig Handgriff sein oder diesen ausbilden, wobei der Handgriff in an sich bekannter Weise den Antrieb zu der Antriebswelle aufweisen kann. Dieser Antrieb kann batteriebetrieben sein. Bei dieser Ausgestaltung sind die Batterien innerhalb des Handgriffs vorgesehen. Alternativ kann der Antrieb netzgebunden und aus dem Gehäuse ein Kabel herausgeführt sein, mit dem elektrischer Strom bis zu dem Antrieb geführt werden kann.The carrier, preferably each carrier, is pivotally mounted on a housing. For this purpose, the respective carriers each have a shaft, which is preferably formed integrally on the carrier and pivots about the axis of the carrier. As a pivoting is strictly speaking a rotation about the corresponding axis understood by less than 360 °. Thus, stops may be provided which prevent a true rotational movement. However, the carrier can also rotate together with the axis, wherein such a rotating movement is to be regarded as pivotable in the sense of claim 1. In particular, the feature means that the carrier is movably supported for a rotational movement about the axis formed by the shaft. The pivotability or rotation of the carrier results from the fact that the carrier usually rotationally with the carrier respectively associated Shaft are connected, wherein the shaft is pivotally mounted or rotatably mounted in the housing. With the rotating shaft and the carrier is rotated or pivoted. The carrier is usually made of plastic, usually a hard component such as PP, ABS, PA, PBT or PE. For producing the carrier and for connecting the carrier to the cleaning elements, it is possible to use any technique known in particular from the field of toothbrushes. The same applies to the materials used there for the carrier and / or the cleaning elements. The housing is preferably also made of plastic. According to the invention, the housing supports a common drive shaft which is provided for the carriers and which is drive-coupled to the shafts of the carriers. The coupling is usually carried out via gears, preferably via a transmission, which may have a lower or a translation to change the speed of a drive to the drive shaft relative to the rotational speed of the shaft of the carrier. The housing can also be a handle or form this at the same time, wherein the handle in a conventional manner can have the drive to the drive shaft. This drive can be battery operated. In this embodiment, the batteries are provided within the handle. Alternatively, the drive can be network-connected and led out of the housing a cable, with the electric current can be performed up to the drive.
Der Antrieb kann so ausgebildet sein, dass er eine gleichmäßige Rotationsbewegung an die Antriebswelle und damit die Träger vermittelt. Alternativ kann der Antrieb auch oszillierend mit reversierender Drehbewegung betrieben werden oder hochfrequent vibrierend betrieben werden. Insbesondere bei der zuletzt genannten Ausgestaltung werden die Träger bevorzugt lediglich um einen Winkelbereich verschwenkt und nicht gedreht.The drive can be designed so that it gives a uniform rotational movement of the drive shaft and thus the carrier. Alternatively, the drive can also be operated oscillating with reversing rotary motion or operated high-frequency vibrating. In particular, in the latter embodiment, the carrier are preferably pivoted only by an angular range and not rotated.
Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung kann mit gleicher reinigungsaktiver Fläche wie die Bürste aus dem Stand der Technik betrieben werden, insbesondere um das Gesichtsfeld zu massieren und/oder zu reinigen. Durch das Aufteilen der Reinigungselemente auf verschiedene Träger kann sich indes die reinigungsaktive Oberfläche der Reinigungselemente besser an die Kontur der zu reinigenden Oberfläche anpassen. So wird die empfindliche Gesichtshaut weniger strapaziert, wodurch Rötungen im Gesicht aufgrund der Reinigung mit der erfindungsgemäßen Bürste vermindert oder ganz vermieden werden können.The solution according to the invention can be operated with the same cleaning-active surface as the brush of the prior art, in particular to massage the visual field and / or to clean. By dividing the cleaning elements on different carriers, however, the cleaning-active surface of the cleaning elements can better adapt to the contour of the surface to be cleaned. Thus, the sensitive facial skin is less strained, whereby redness in the face due to cleaning with the brush according to the invention can be reduced or avoided altogether.
Die Wellen der Träger erstrecken sich bevorzugt im Wesentlichen parallel zueinander und parallel zu der Achsrichtung der Antriebswelle. Dabei sind die Antriebswelle und die Wellen der Träger üblicherweise über ein Planetengetriebe miteinander gekoppelt, wodurch die Drehbewegung der zentralen und gemeinsamen Antriebswelle auf einfache Weise auf sämtliche Träger übertragen werden kann. Bevorzugt sind zwischen zwei und sechs Träger vorgesehen und exzentrisch zu der Antriebswelle angeordnet.The shafts of the carriers preferably extend substantially parallel to one another and parallel to the axial direction of the drive shaft. The drive shaft and the waves of the carrier are usually coupled together via a planetary gear, whereby the rotational movement of the central and common drive shaft in a simple manner to all carriers can be transferred. Preferably, between two and six carriers are provided and arranged eccentrically to the drive shaft.
Gemäß einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der vorliegenden Erfindung sind die Träger elastisch gegenüber dem Gehäuse gelagert, und zwar derart, dass jeder Träger relativ zu einer Achsrichtung der Welle verschwenkbar ist. Der tellerförmige Träger kann dementsprechend abhängig von der tatsächlich auf den Träger wirkenden äußeren Belastung verschwenken, so dass sich die an dem Träger vorgesehenen Reinigungselemente möglichst vollflächig gegen die zu überstreichende Oberfläche legen. Dabei bleiben die mit der Antriebswelle kämmenden Enden der Wellen im Eingriff mit der Antriebswelle. So kann die Welle aufgrund ihrer Elastizität während des Antriebs gekrümmt werden. Der die Welle üblicherweise überragende Träger hat dementsprechend eine Drehachse, die gegenüber der Drehachse des antriebsseitigen Endes der Welle verschwenkt ist. Der Verschwenkwinkel kann bis zu 30°, gegebenenfalls auch nur bis zu 20° betragen. Die Welle des Trägers kann auch in einer elastischen Hülse abgestützt sein, die eine gewisse Beweglichkeit der in dem Gehäuse gelagerten Welle relativ zu dem Gehäuse zulässt und dementsprechend die gewünschte Schwenkbewegung.According to a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, the carriers are elastically mounted relative to the housing, in such a way that each carrier is pivotable relative to an axial direction of the shaft. The plate-shaped carrier can accordingly pivot depending on the outer load actually acting on the carrier, so that the cleaning elements provided on the carrier lie as against the surface to be swept as completely as possible over the entire area. The ends of the shafts, which mesh with the drive shaft, remain in engagement with the drive shaft. Thus, the shaft can be curved due to their elasticity during the drive. The shaft usually superior to the carrier accordingly has an axis of rotation which is pivoted relative to the axis of rotation of the drive-side end of the shaft. The swiveling angle can be up to 30 °, if necessary only up to 20 °. The shaft of the carrier can also be supported in an elastic sleeve, which allows a certain mobility of the shaft mounted in the housing relative to the housing and, accordingly, the desired pivoting movement.
Bei der Bürste haben die Träger bevorzugt eine kreisrunde Grundfläche und sind tellerförmig ausgebildet. Der Durchmesser der Träger liegt bei zwischen 10 und 25 mm. Die an dem Träger vorgesehenen Reinigungselemente sind bevorzugt Borstenbündel, die durch Borstenfilamente mit einer Filamentstärke von 2 bis 8 mils gebildet sind.In the case of the brush, the carriers preferably have a circular base surface and are dish-shaped. The diameter of the carrier is between 10 and 25 mm. The cleaning elements provided on the carrier are preferably bristle bundles formed by bristle filaments having a filament thickness of 2 to 8 mils.
