ES2208117A1 - Case for dental cleaning device and corresponding dental cleaning device - Google Patents

Abstract

The invention relates to a case for a dental cleaning device and to the corresponding dental cleaning device. More specifically, the invention relates to a dental cleaning device comprising a support bearing a flavoured dental tape. The ends of said tape are connected to wide-open U-shaped arms. The inventive cleaning device, which is made from a flexible material, also comprises a handle-forming projecting element. The distance separating the aforementioned U-shaped arms enables the floss to be moved such as to rub the inner portion of the teeth. According to the invention, the surface of the tape floss is uneven, which facilitates the rubbing action. The dental cleaning device is disposed in a case having a lateral configuration corresponding to the shape of the cleaning device. The case includes a unit-dispensing device with a non-return means comprising a preferably-plastic strap which enables cleaners to be slid out of the case while preventing already-extracted cleaners from being reinserted therein. The invention is suitable for use in the production of dental cleaning devices which are disposed in cases.

Description

Case for dental cleaners and cleaner corresponding dental.

The technical sector of this invention is the of dental cleaners.

Indication of prior art

It is known the dental cleaning device that It is formed by a dental floss support. There are of type permanent, or combined with a handle. In most of the cases they have a thread support configuration so that it allows Insert it in the dental interstices.

The toothbrush holder case is set up as a set with corresponding cleaners, intended to be consumed and discarded, cleaners and case, guaranteeing the hygiene of the whole.

The structure of the set comprises a case, which is configured by a prismatic body, an interior wall mobile and a fixed cover between which said cleaners are arranged, the movable wall being pressed by strips that tend to bring the set of cleaners to the fixed cover 11.

Said fixed cover 11 has at one end a recess 15 cooperating with a notch or recess 14 made in the container body, to facilitate removal of the cleaner correspondent. Inside the cover 11 has a strap 12 separated by its end 13 so that said separation prevents re-entry of a cleaner removed or partially removed.

The cleaners are well constituted in a single body, preferably injection, or through the glued or welded with two sheets between which the tape is arranged Dental 17 between points 21 and 22 of said cleaner.

A preferred configuration is led to out by arranging the base of the "U" at an angle as shown in figure 5 with 19.1 so that greater material thinness constitutes stiffness and elasticity similar, so that more items fit in a single case occupying the same volume.

The cleaners are provided in one embodiment. preferably, of said angle arrangement of the base material of the "U" 19.1. This assumes that its small elevation tracts during the removal of a cleaner unit, to the next, partially, until the cleaner removed, overcomes the recess 15, in which, when released, it stops betraying on said next Unit.

Base 24 has conventional devices of wall fixing, such as a two-sided adhesive tape, a simple adhesive coating, or a pair of holes. The Union from the base to the case takes place by incorporating complementary prominences to corresponding cavities, or guides conventional.
