Definitions
- the invention relates to a hairbrush which has a mechanism for the simplified removal of hair which has become entangled between the bristles.
- Hairbrushes are well known in the art. Especially when brushing long hair, more and more hairs get caught in the brush over time and settle in the area around the bristles. The hair is very difficult to remove from the brush as it often becomes tangled and tears when you try to remove it. However, the continuous accumulation of hair is visually unattractive and undesirable for hygienic reasons.
- the object of the invention is to provide a hairbrush which enables hair caught between the bristles to be removed easily and overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art.
- the invention relates to a hairbrush with a handle and a brush head which has a plurality of bristles which protrude from an upper side of the brush head, the brush head having a base connected to the handle and a perforated screen releasably held on the base has a plurality of holes, the bristles passing through the holes of the orifice plate, and wherein the bristles are attached to a bristle pad which is received between the base and the orifice plate.
- the bristle pad is rigid and the bristles are arranged on the bristle pad in such a way that they run parallel to one another, the base having a receiving recess into which the bristle pad is inserted and is pressed against an upper stop by means of an elastic element.
- the perforated screen can be detached from the base and pulled off the bristles. Hair caught between the bristles is loosened. The perforated screen can then be put back on.
- the bristle pad When using the brush, the bristle pad can be moved downward against the restoring force of the elastic element in order to press the bristles deeper into the holes. In this way, the usual elasticity of the bristles in the depth direction is achieved, without a lack of parallelism of the bristles or bulging of the bristle pad impairing the repositioning of the removable perforated diaphragm for realizing the cleaning function.
- the brush head preferably has a generally flattened shape with two opposite flat sides, an upper side and a lower side, which, despite this designation, do not have to be exactly flat, but can also be arched, arched or complexly shaped.
- the brush head can have an approximately rectangular shape, but in another embodiment it can also have an oval shape. All intermediate solutions and also other designs are conceivable, the exact shape of the brush head not being decisive for the present invention.
- the brush also has additional bristles on the other flat side of the brush head or at another point, but this is of no importance for the present invention. Accordingly, the present description of the bristles relates only to the aforementioned plurality of bristles on bristles which protrude from one flat side of the brush head.
- detachable means that the aperture plate can be completely removed from the base, that is to say that after the detachable connection has been released, there is no longer any connection between the base and the aperture plate.
- the bristle pad is flat at least on its upper side.
- the elastic element is a cushion which is inserted into the receiving recess below the bristle pad is.
- the bristle pad preferably rests flat on the top of the cushion.
- the pad can have a constant thickness over its entire surface.
- the cushion is preferably a flat structure with a constant thickness of, for example, 0.5 to 1.5 cm. It can be made from an elastic polymer foam, for example polyurethane foam.
- the cushion can be glued to the receiving recess along the circumference and / or on its underside. In this case, in particular, it can be provided that the cushion has a waterproof cover, in particular a cover made of a plastic film.
- the total depth of the receiving recess corresponds to the sum of the thicknesses of the bristle pad and the uncompressed cushion.
- the bristles are rod-shaped structures with a preferably circular cross-section, which are inserted through holes in the bristle pad that are of corresponding shape and are preferably also circular.
- they can be made of a soft polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
- the bottom of the receiving recess is curved downwards and reinforced with a rib construction.
- the bristle pad or pillow can rest on the upper front edges of the rib construction.
- the base and the bristle pad have corresponding guide elements in order to allow vertical movement of the bristle pad relative to the base, but to prevent horizontal movement.
- suitable guide elements include vertical webs and grooves, wherein, for example, a circumferential vertical web can be arranged in the recess of the base and the bristle pad can have a corresponding, circumferential and downwardly open vertical groove.
- the base is designed in two parts and has a first frame, which is connected to the handle and forms at least the lower part of the receiving recess, and a second frame, which is placed on the first frame and at least the upper stop for the bristle pad forms, on.
- the upper frame can in particular be attached to the lower frame by means of a plug connection.
- the perforated screen is held releasably on the upper frame of the base.
- the peripheral edge of the perforated diaphragm is curved in the direction of the base and is placed over a corresponding counter-contour of the base. In this way, a positionally stable and elegant mounting of the perforated diaphragm on the base can be achieved.
- the inside of the peripheral edge and the mating contour are shaped to correspond to one another and can preferably have a course with a curved cross-section. In general, they are inclined inwards so that removal and placement of the perforated diaphragm are not hindered.
- the perforated diaphragm is preferably flat.
- the perforated diaphragm is held releasably on the base by means of a latching connection.
- the perforated diaphragm and the base preferably have at least two pairs of corresponding latching means in the form of corresponding latching projections and latching recesses in order to hold the perforated diaphragm in a form-fitting manner on the base.
- the locking projections and locking depressions preferably run approximately in the plane of the brush head.
- the perforated screen can have latching projections directed inwards, that is to say towards the center of the brush head, and the base can have latching recesses that are open to the outside, that is to say facing away from the center of the brush head.
- the corresponding locking projections and locking depressions are arranged on the circumferential edge of the perforated diaphragm and on the mating contour of the base.
- Two pairs of corresponding locking means can be arranged on the long sides of the brush head.
- the long sides of the brush head regardless of their or its precise shape, are those circumferential sections which run approximately in the direction of extension of the handle.
- the two corresponding pairs of latching means are preferably arranged centrally on the longitudinal sides, which means that they are located in the middle third and preferably in the middle quarter of the respective longitudinal sides.
- tactile depressions are arranged on the base in the corresponding area of the longitudinal sides of the brush head.
- the tactile indentations allow the user to insert thumb and index or middle finger into the two opposite tactile indentations and thus lift the aperture plate upwards, whereby a certain inward pressure can optionally be exerted to release the latching means.
- Another pair of corresponding locking projections and locking depressions can be arranged on the end face of the brush head.
- the end face of the brush head is that circumferential section which connects the longitudinal sides on the side of the brush head opposite the handle.
- a latching connection at the end can provide additional support and is automatically released when the lateral latching connections are loosened.
- the perforated screen and the brush pad can be made of a rigid plastic material such as polycarbonate (PC) or polypropylene (PP).
- the base can be made of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), for example.
- ABS acrylonitrile butadiene styrene
- the handle can be connected in one piece to the base and made of the same material. However, it can also be a separate component that can be made from other materials such as wood.
- the figure shows an exploded view of a brush according to the invention, the brush head of which has a base with a lower frame 1 and an upper frame 2, a bristle pad 5, a cushion 6 and a perforated screen 7 as essential components.
- the base therefore comprises a lower frame 1 in the form of a vertical and circumferential web on which the bristle pad 5 is placed in such a way that it moves in a guided movement within a recess which is defined in the base and is enclosed by the lower frame 1, can be moved up and down in a guided manner.
- the bristle pad 5 Underneath the bristle pad 5 thus stretched, a cavity is created in the area enclosed by the lower frame 1, into which a flexible foam cushion 6 can be inserted.
- the flat bristle pad 5 can thus yield downwards when the brush is used due to the cavity created by the lower frame 1.
- the flat bristle pad 5 is made possible to use the same high level of user comfort as is available with conventional brushes with a curved bristle pad.
- the removable aperture plate 7 is attached to an upper frame 2 of the base. It contains holes that are slightly larger than the circumference of the bristles. As a result, hairs and residues accumulated between the bristles can easily be removed when the perforated diaphragm 7 is removed.
- the foam cushion 6 inserted into the cavity created by the lower frame 1 fulfills two functions: On the one hand, it serves as a flexible base for the bristle pad 5 and thus creates a pleasant feeling for the user. On the other hand, its elasticity ensures that the bristle pad 5 returns to its original state after use. This ensures that the bristles remain vertical and the removable perforated screen 7 can still be removed and put on without any problems.
- the upper frame 2 comprises pins which are inserted into holes 3 in the area of the lower frame 1 to connect the upper frame 2 and the lower frame 1 or to connect the base.
- the upper frame 2 forms an additional guide for the bristle pad 5 and at the same time serves as an upper stop. Furthermore, the upper frame accommodates 2 latching recesses 10, into which corresponding latching projections of the perforated screen 7 can latch.
- the upper frame 2 thus represents the connecting element between the base and the removable perforated panel 7.
- ribs 4 are formed within the cavity formed by the lower frame 1, which ribs form a grid on the bottom of the cavity created by the first frame 1 inside the base. As a result, they stabilize all sides of the lower frame 1 and secure the entire structure below the bristle pad 5.
- the bristle pad 5 is flat and rigid. This would normally be associated with low elasticity and low user comfort. Due to the vertical displaceability and the elastic pretensioning by means of the cushion 6, the flat bristle pad 5 offers an equally high level of user comfort as the curved bristle pads of known hairbrushes.
- the upper frame 2 contains three locking recesses 10. So that the perforated diaphragm 7 can be used this can connect three locking depressions 10 to the hairbrush, it contains a total of three locking projections 9 which engage in the locking depressions 10.

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Haarbürste, die einen Mechanismus zur vereinfachten Entfernung von Haaren aufweist, die sich zwischen den Borsten verfangen haben.The invention relates to a hairbrush which has a mechanism for the simplified removal of hair which has become entangled between the bristles.
Haarbürsten sind im Stand der Technik allgemein bekannt. Insbesondere beim Bürsten von langen Haaren verfangen sich im Laufe der Zeit immer mehr Haare in der Bürste und setzen sich im Ansatzbereich der Borsten ab. Die Haare sind nur sehr schwer aus der Bürste zu entfernen, da diese oft verknoten und beim Versuch einer Entfernung reißen. Das fortlaufende Ansammeln von Haaren ist aber optisch unschön und auch aus hygienischen Gründen unerwünscht.Hairbrushes are well known in the art. Especially when brushing long hair, more and more hairs get caught in the brush over time and settle in the area around the bristles. The hair is very difficult to remove from the brush as it often becomes tangled and tears when you try to remove it. However, the continuous accumulation of hair is visually unattractive and undesirable for hygienic reasons.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Haarbürste bereitzustellen, die eine einfache Entfernung von zwischen den Borsten verfangenen Haaren ermöglicht und die Nachteile aus dem Stand der Technik überwindet.The object of the invention is to provide a hairbrush which enables hair caught between the bristles to be removed easily and overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art.
Vor diesem Hintergrund betrifft die Erfindung eine Haarbürste mit einem Griff und einem Bürstenkopf, der eine Vielzahl an Borsten aufweist, die von einer Oberseite des Bürstenkopfes abstehen, wobei der Bürstenkopf eine mit dem Griff in Verbindung stehende Basis und eine lösbar an der Basis gehaltene Lochblende mit einer Vielzahl an Löchern aufweist, wobei die Borsten durch die Löcher der Lochblende verlaufen, und wobei die Borsten an einem Borstenpad befestigt sind, welches zwischen der Basis und der Lochblende aufgenommen ist. Erfindungsgemäß ist vorgesehen, dass das Borstenpad starr ist und die Borsten so am Borstenpad angeordnet sind, dass sie parallel zueinander verlaufen, wobei die Basis eine Aufnahmevertiefung aufweist, in die das Borstenpad eingelegt ist und anhand eines elastischen Elements gegen einen oberen Anschlag gedrückt wird.Against this background, the invention relates to a hairbrush with a handle and a brush head which has a plurality of bristles which protrude from an upper side of the brush head, the brush head having a base connected to the handle and a perforated screen releasably held on the base has a plurality of holes, the bristles passing through the holes of the orifice plate, and wherein the bristles are attached to a bristle pad which is received between the base and the orifice plate. According to the invention it is provided that the bristle pad is rigid and the bristles are arranged on the bristle pad in such a way that they run parallel to one another, the base having a receiving recess into which the bristle pad is inserted and is pressed against an upper stop by means of an elastic element.
Nach einer Benutzung bzw. nach mehreren Benutzungen der Bürste kann die Lochblende von der Basis gelöst und von den Borsten abgezogen werden. Dabei werden zwischen den Borsten verfangene Haare abgelöst. Im Anschluss kann die Lochblende wieder aufgesetzt werden.After one use or after several uses of the brush, the perforated screen can be detached from the base and pulled off the bristles. Hair caught between the bristles is loosened. The perforated screen can then be put back on.
In der Anwendung der Bürste kann das Borstenpad gegen die rückstellende Kraft des elastischen Elements nach unten bewegt werden, um die Borsten tiefer in die Löcher zu drücken. Auf diese Weise wird die gewohnte Elastizität der Borsten in Tiefenrichtung erreicht, ohne dass durch eine fehlende Parallelität der Borsten bzw. Auswölbung des Borstenpads ein Rückaufsetzen der abnehmbaren Lochblende zur Realisierung der Reinigungsfunktion beeinträchtigt würde.When using the brush, the bristle pad can be moved downward against the restoring force of the elastic element in order to press the bristles deeper into the holes. In this way, the usual elasticity of the bristles in the depth direction is achieved, without a lack of parallelism of the bristles or bulging of the bristle pad impairing the repositioning of the removable perforated diaphragm for realizing the cleaning function.
Der Bürstenkopf hat vorzugsweise eine generell abgeflachte Gestalt mit zwei gegenüberliegenden Flachseiten, einer Oberseite und einer Unterseite, die trotz dieser Bezeichnung nicht exakt flach sein müssen, sondern auch aufgewölbt, eingewölbt oder komplex geformt sein können. Was die Gestalt in Draufsicht betrifft, so kann der Bürstenkopf eine ungefähr rechteckige, in einer anderen Ausführungsform aber auch eine ovale Gestalt haben. Alle Zwischenlösungen und auch andere Gestaltungen sind denkbar, wobei die genaue Formgebung des Bürstenkopfes für die vorliegende Erfindung nicht entscheidend ist.The brush head preferably has a generally flattened shape with two opposite flat sides, an upper side and a lower side, which, despite this designation, do not have to be exactly flat, but can also be arched, arched or complexly shaped. As far as the shape in plan view is concerned, the brush head can have an approximately rectangular shape, but in another embodiment it can also have an oval shape. All intermediate solutions and also other designs are conceivable, the exact shape of the brush head not being decisive for the present invention.
Es kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Bürste auch noch zusätzliche Borsten an der anderen Flachseite des Bürstenkopfes oder an einer weiteren Stelle aufweist, was aber für die vorliegende Erfindung ohne Bedeutung ist. Entsprechend bezieht sich die vorliegende Beschreibung der Borsten nur auf die genannte Vielzahl der Borsten an Borsten, die von der einen Flachseite des Bürstenkopfes abstehen.It can be provided that the brush also has additional bristles on the other flat side of the brush head or at another point, but this is of no importance for the present invention. Accordingly, the present description of the bristles relates only to the aforementioned plurality of bristles on bristles which protrude from one flat side of the brush head.
Lösbar im Rahmen der Erfindung bedeutet, dass die Lochblende vollständig von der Basis abgenommen werden kann, dass also nach einem Lösen der lösbaren Verbindung keine Verbindung mehr zwischen der Basis und der Lochblende besteht.In the context of the invention, detachable means that the aperture plate can be completely removed from the base, that is to say that after the detachable connection has been released, there is no longer any connection between the base and the aperture plate.
In einer Ausführungsform ist das Borstenpad zumindest an seiner Oberseite flach.In one embodiment, the bristle pad is flat at least on its upper side.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform handelt es sich bei dem elastischen Element um ein Kissen, das unterhalb des Borstenpads in die Aufnahmevertiefung eingelegt ist. Das Borstenpad liegt in dieser Ausführungsform vorzugsweise flach an der Oberseite des Kissens auf. Das Kissen kann eine konstante Dicke über seine gesamte Fläche aufweisen. Bei dem Kissen handelt es sich vorzugsweise um ein flächiges Gebilde mit konstanter Dicke von beispielsweise 0,5 bis 1,5 cm. Es kann aus einem elastischen Polymerschaum, beispielsweise Polyurethanschaum gefertigt sein. Das Kissen kann entlang dem Umfang und/oder an dessen Unterseite mit der Aufnahmevertiefung verklebt sein. Insbesondere in diesem Fall kann vorgesehen sein, dass das Kissen eine wasserdichte Umhüllung, insbesondere eine Umhüllung aus einer Kunststofffolie aufweist.In a preferred embodiment, the elastic element is a cushion which is inserted into the receiving recess below the bristle pad is. In this embodiment, the bristle pad preferably rests flat on the top of the cushion. The pad can have a constant thickness over its entire surface. The cushion is preferably a flat structure with a constant thickness of, for example, 0.5 to 1.5 cm. It can be made from an elastic polymer foam, for example polyurethane foam. The cushion can be glued to the receiving recess along the circumference and / or on its underside. In this case, in particular, it can be provided that the cushion has a waterproof cover, in particular a cover made of a plastic film.
Bevorzugt ist, dass die Gesamttiefe der Aufnahmevertiefung der Summe der Dicken von Borstenpad und nicht komprimiertem Kissen entspricht.It is preferred that the total depth of the receiving recess corresponds to the sum of the thicknesses of the bristle pad and the uncompressed cushion.
In einer Ausführungsform handelt es sich bei den Borsten um stabförmige Gebilde mit vorzugsweise kreisrundem Querschnitt, die durch korrespondierend geformte und entsprechend vorzugsweise ebenfalls kreisrunde Löcher im Borstenpad gesteckt sind. Sie können beispielsweise aus einem weichen Polyvinylchlorid (PVC) gefertigt sein.In one embodiment, the bristles are rod-shaped structures with a preferably circular cross-section, which are inserted through holes in the bristle pad that are of corresponding shape and are preferably also circular. For example, they can be made of a soft polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
In einer Ausführungsform ist der Boden der Aufnahmevertiefung nach unten ausgewölbt und mit einer Rippenkonstruktion verstärkt. Borstenpad bzw. Kissen können auf den oberen Stirnkanten der Rippenkonstruktion aufliegen.In one embodiment, the bottom of the receiving recess is curved downwards and reinforced with a rib construction. The bristle pad or pillow can rest on the upper front edges of the rib construction.
In einer Ausführungsform weisen die Basis und das Borstenpad korrespondierende Führungselemente auf, um eine vertikale Bewegung des Borstenpads relativ zur Basis zu erlauben, eine horizontale Bewegung aber zu unterbinden. Eine leicht schräge, aber im Wesentlichen vertikale Bewegung bei beispielsweise einer einseitigen Druckbeaufschlagung der Borsten soll von den Führungselementen ebenfalls erlaubt sein. Beispiele geeigneter Führungselemente umfassen vertikale Stege und Nuten, wobei beispielsweise in der Ausnehmung der Basis ein umlaufender Vertikalsteg angeordnet sein kann und das Borstenpad eine korrespondierende, umlaufende und nach unten offene Vertikalnut aufweisen kann.In one embodiment, the base and the bristle pad have corresponding guide elements in order to allow vertical movement of the bristle pad relative to the base, but to prevent horizontal movement. A slightly inclined, but essentially vertical movement, for example when pressure is applied to the bristles on one side, should also be permitted by the guide elements. Examples of suitable guide elements include vertical webs and grooves, wherein, for example, a circumferential vertical web can be arranged in the recess of the base and the bristle pad can have a corresponding, circumferential and downwardly open vertical groove.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist die Basis zweiteilig ausgebildet und weist einen ersten Rahmen, der mit dem Griff verbunden ist und zumindest den unteren Teil der Aufnahmevertiefung bildet, und einen zweiten Rahmen, der auf den ersten Rahmen aufgesetzt ist und zumindest den oberen Anschlag für das Borstenpad bildet, auf. Der obere Rahmen kann insbesondere anhand einer Steckverbindung am unteren Rahmen befestigt sein. In dieser Ausführungsform ist vorzugsweise vorgesehen, dass die Lochblende am oberen Rahmen der Basis lösbar gehalten ist.In a preferred embodiment, the base is designed in two parts and has a first frame, which is connected to the handle and forms at least the lower part of the receiving recess, and a second frame, which is placed on the first frame and at least the upper stop for the bristle pad forms, on. The upper frame can in particular be attached to the lower frame by means of a plug connection. In this embodiment it is preferably provided that the perforated screen is held releasably on the upper frame of the base.
In einer Ausführungsform ist vorgesehen, dass der Umfangsrand der Lochblende in Richtung der Basis gewölbt und über eine korrespondierende Gegenkontur der Basis gelegt ist. So kann eine positionsstabile und formschöne Lagerung der Lochblende auf der Basis erreicht werden. Die Innenseite des Umfangsrandes und die Gegenkontur sind korrespondierend zueinander geformt und können vorzugsweise einen im Querschnitt gekrümmten Verlauf haben. Generell sind sie nach innen geneigt, dass eine Abnahme und ein Aufsetzen der Lochblende nicht behindert werden.In one embodiment it is provided that the peripheral edge of the perforated diaphragm is curved in the direction of the base and is placed over a corresponding counter-contour of the base. In this way, a positionally stable and elegant mounting of the perforated diaphragm on the base can be achieved. The inside of the peripheral edge and the mating contour are shaped to correspond to one another and can preferably have a course with a curved cross-section. In general, they are inclined inwards so that removal and placement of the perforated diaphragm are not hindered.
Im Bereich der Löcher und abgesehen von dem Umfangsrand ist die Lochblende vorzugsweise flach.In the area of the holes and apart from the peripheral edge, the perforated diaphragm is preferably flat.
Insbesondere ist vorgesehen, dass die Lochblende anhand einer Rastverbindung lösbar an der Basis gehalten ist. Vorzugsweise weisen die Lochblende und die Basis dazu wenigstens zwei Paare an korrespondierenden Rastmitteln in Form von korrespondierenden Rastvorsprüngen und Rastvertiefungen auf, um die Lochblende formschlüssig an der Basis zu halten. Die Rastvorsprünge und Rastvertiefungen verlaufen vorzugsweise in etwa in der Ebene des Bürstenkopfes. Beispielsweise kann die Lochblende nach innen, also zur Mitte des Bürstenkopfes hin gerichtete Rastvorsprünge und die Basis nach außen offene, also von der Mitte des Bürstenkopfes abgewandte Rastvertiefungen aufweisen. Vorzugsweise ist dabei vorgesehen, dass die korrespondierenden Rastvorsprünge und Rastvertiefungen am Umfangsrand der Lochblende und an der Gegenkontur der Basis angeordnet sind.In particular, it is provided that the perforated diaphragm is held releasably on the base by means of a latching connection. For this purpose, the perforated diaphragm and the base preferably have at least two pairs of corresponding latching means in the form of corresponding latching projections and latching recesses in order to hold the perforated diaphragm in a form-fitting manner on the base. The locking projections and locking depressions preferably run approximately in the plane of the brush head. For example, the perforated screen can have latching projections directed inwards, that is to say towards the center of the brush head, and the base can have latching recesses that are open to the outside, that is to say facing away from the center of the brush head. It is preferably provided that the corresponding locking projections and locking depressions are arranged on the circumferential edge of the perforated diaphragm and on the mating contour of the base.
Zwei Paare an korrespondierenden Rastmitteln können an den Längsseiten des Bürstenkopfes angeordnet sein. Bei den Längsseiten des Bürstenkopfes handelt es sich, unabhängig von deren bzw. dessen genauer Formgebung, um diejenigen Umfangsabschnitte, die in etwa in Erstreckungsrichtung des Griffs verlaufen. Die zwei korrespondierenden Paare an Rastmitteln sind vorzugsweise mittig an den Längsseiten angeordnet, was bedeutet, dass sie sich im mittleren Drittel und vorzugsweise im mittleren Viertel der jeweiligen Längsseiten befinden.Two pairs of corresponding locking means can be arranged on the long sides of the brush head. The long sides of the brush head, regardless of their or its precise shape, are those circumferential sections which run approximately in the direction of extension of the handle. The two corresponding pairs of latching means are preferably arranged centrally on the longitudinal sides, which means that they are located in the middle third and preferably in the middle quarter of the respective longitudinal sides.
Weiter vorzugsweise sind im entsprechenden Bereich der Längsseiten des Bürstenkopfes Tastvertiefungen an der Basis angeordnet. Die Tastvertiefungen ermöglichen es dem Benutzer, Daumen und Zeige- oder Mittelfinger in die beiden gegenüberliegenden Tastvertiefungen einzulegen und so die Lochblende nach oben abzuheben, wobei gegebenenfalls zum Lösen der Rastmittel zusätzlich ein gewisser nach innen gerichteter Druck ausgeübt werden kann.More preferably, tactile depressions are arranged on the base in the corresponding area of the longitudinal sides of the brush head. The tactile indentations allow the user to insert thumb and index or middle finger into the two opposite tactile indentations and thus lift the aperture plate upwards, whereby a certain inward pressure can optionally be exerted to release the latching means.
Ein weiteres Paar an korrespondierenden Rastvorsprüngen und Rastvertiefungen kann an der Stirnseite des Bürstenkopfes angeordnet sein. Bei der Stirnseite des Bürstenkopfes handelt es sich um denjenigen Umfangsabschnitt, der die Längsseiten an der dem Griff gegenüberliegenden Seite des Bürstenkopfes verbindet. Eine stirnseitige Rastverbindung kann zusätzlichen Halt bringen und löst sich bei Lösen der seitlichen Rastverbindungen automatisch.Another pair of corresponding locking projections and locking depressions can be arranged on the end face of the brush head. The end face of the brush head is that circumferential section which connects the longitudinal sides on the side of the brush head opposite the handle. A latching connection at the end can provide additional support and is automatically released when the lateral latching connections are loosened.
Die Lochblende und das Bürstenpad können aus einem starren Kunststoffmaterial wie beispielsweise Polycarbonat (PC) oder Polypropylen (PP) gefertigt sein. Die Basis kann beispielsweise aus Acrylnitril-Butadien-Styrol (ABS) gefertigt sein. Der Griff kann sich einteilig an die Basis anschließen und aus demselben Material gefertigt sein. Er kann sich aber auch um ein separates Bauteil handeln, das aus anderen Materialien wie beispielsweise Holz gefertigt werden kann.The perforated screen and the brush pad can be made of a rigid plastic material such as polycarbonate (PC) or polypropylene (PP). The base can be made of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), for example. The handle can be connected in one piece to the base and made of the same material. However, it can also be a separate component that can be made from other materials such as wood.
Weitere Einzelheiten und Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus dem nachfolgend anhand der einzigen Figur dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel.Further details and advantages of the invention emerge from the exemplary embodiment illustrated below with reference to the single figure.
Die Figur zeigt eine Explosionsansicht einer erfindungsgemäßen Bürste, deren Bürstenkopf als wesentliche Bestandteile eine Basis mit einem unteren Rahmen 1 und einem oberen Rahmen 2, ein Borstenpad 5, ein Kissen 6 und eine Lochblende 7 aufweist.The figure shows an exploded view of a brush according to the invention, the brush head of which has a base with a lower frame 1 and an
Normale Haarbürsten verfügen über ein gewölbtes Borstenpad, welches bei der Benutzung nachgibt und einen hohen Benutzerkomfort ermöglicht. Bei einem flachen Borstenpad, wie es im Rahmen der Erfindung erforderlich ist, damit die Haare entfernende Lochblende problemlos aufgesetzt und entfernt werden kann, wäre dieser Komfort normalerweise nicht gewährleistet. Daher umfasst die Basis einen untere Rahmen 1 in Form eines vertikalen und umlaufenden Stegs, auf den das Borstenpad 5 in einer Weise aufgesetzt wird, dass es in einer geführten Bewegung innerhalb einer Ausnehmung, die in der Basis definiert und vom unteren Rahmen 1 umschlossen ist, in geführter Weise auf und ab bewegt werden kann. Unterhalb des so aufgespannten Borstenpads 5 entsteht ein Hohlraum in dem vom unteren Rahmen 1 umschlossenen Bereich, in den ein nachgiebiges Schaumstoffkissen 6 eingelegt werden kann. Somit kann das flache Borstenpad 5 bei Benutzung der Bürste aufgrund des durch den unteren Rahmen 1 erzeugten Hohlraums nach unten nachgeben. Folglich wird für das flache Borstenpad 5 einen gleichwertig hohen Benutzungskomfort ermöglicht, wie er bei herkömmlichen Bürsten mit gewölbtem Borstenpad vorhanden ist.Normal hairbrushes have a curved bristle pad, which gives way when used and allows a high level of user comfort. In the case of a flat bristle pad, as is required within the scope of the invention, so that the perforated diaphragm which removes hair can be put on and removed without problems, this comfort would normally not be guaranteed. The base therefore comprises a lower frame 1 in the form of a vertical and circumferential web on which the
Die abnehmbare Lochblende 7 ist an einem oberen Rahmen 2 der Basis befestigt. Sie beinhaltet geringfügig größer als der Umfang der Borsten dimensionierte Löcher. Dadurch lassen sich beim Abnehmen der Lochblende 7 zwischen den Borsten angesammelte Haare und Rückstände mühelos entfernen.The
Das in den durch den unteren Rahmen 1 erzeugten Hohlraum eingelegte Schaumstoffkissen 6 erfüllt zwei Funktionen: Zum einen dient es als nachgiebige Unterlage des Borstenpads 5 und erzeugt damit ein angenehmes Gefühl für den Benutzer. Zum anderen sorgt es durch seine Elastizität dafür, dass das Borstenpad 5 nach der Benutzung wieder in den Ursprungszustand zurückkehrt. Dadurch wird gewährleistet, dass die die Borsten vertikal bleiben und die abnehmbare Lochblende 7 weiterhin problemlos entfernt und aufgesetzt werden kann.The foam cushion 6 inserted into the cavity created by the lower frame 1 fulfills two functions: On the one hand, it serves as a flexible base for the
Der obere Rahmen 2 umfasst Stifte, die zum Zusammenschluss des oberen Rahmens 2 und des unteren Rahmens 1 bzw. zum Zusammenschluss der Basis in Löcher 3 im Bereich des unteren Rahmens 1 gesteckt werden. Der obere Rahmen 2 bildet eine zusätzliche Führung für das Borstenpad 5 und dient gleichzeitig als oberer Anschlag. Des Weiteren beherbergt der obere Rahmen 2 Rastvertiefungen 10, in welche korrespondierende Rastvorsprünge der Lochblende 7 einrasten können. Der obere Rahmen 2 stellt so das verbindende Element zwischen der Basis und der abnehmbaren Lochblende 7 dar.The
Am etwas nach unten ausgewölbten Boden der Basis sind innerhalb des durch den unteren Rahmen 1 gebildeten Hohlraums Rippen 4 ausgebildet, die am Boden des durch den ersten Rahmen 1 erzeugten Hohlraums innerhalb der Basis ein Gitter bilden. Dadurch stabilisieren sie alle Seiten des unteren Rahmens 1 und sichern die gesamte Konstruktion unterhalb des Borstenpads 5 ab.On the bottom of the base, which bulges slightly downwards,
Das Borstenpad 5 ist flach und starr. Dies würde normalerweise mit geringer Elastizität und einem niedrigen Benutzerkomfort einhergehen. Durch die vertikale Verschiebbarkeit und die elastische Vorspannung anhand des Kissens 6 bietet das flache Borstenpad 5 aber einen gleichwertig hohen Benutzerkomfort wie gewölbte Borstenpads bekannter Haarbürsten.The
Da Bürsten gelegentlich auch mit Wasser gereinigt werden, ist es wichtig, dass die gesamte Bürste wasserfest ist. Um daher zu verhindern, dass das Schaumstoffkissen 5 bei Kontakt mit Wasser schimmelt oder anderweitig beeinträchtigt wird, kann es von einer wasserdichten Kunststofffolie vollständig ummantelt und so von Umwelteinflüssen abgeschirmt werden.Since brushes are occasionally cleaned with water, it is important that the entire brush is waterproof. In order to prevent the
Um die Fixierung der Lochblende 7 an der Bürste zu ermöglichen, enthält der obere Rahmen 2 drei Rastvertiefungen 10. Damit sich die Lochblende 7 unter Verwendung dieser drei Rastvertiefungen 10 mit der Haarbürste verbinden kann, enthält sie insgesamt drei Rastvorsprünge 9, welche in die Rastvertiefungen 10 einrasten. An den Seiten der Basis sind Tastvertiefungen 8, nämlich je eine pro Seite angebracht. Diese ermöglichen es dem Benutzer, die Lochblende 7 durch einen sanften Druck mit einer Kombination aus Daumen und Zeige- bzw. Daumen und Mittelfinger anzuheben.In order to make it possible to fix the
