Abstract

It has a head and a handle. The head is equipped with tufts of bristles, of synthetic, natural or another origin, which form a V with the point upwards; each slope of the V forms an angle of forty-five degrees with the base where the tufts are implanted. A section in the direction of the width of the head shows a pentagonal geometric figure formed by the bristles which have a length increasing from the outside towards the centre of the brush. This type of brush, due to its shape, is the instrument of choice for efficient vertical brushing, and it makes it possible to remove dental plaque from all dental surfaces which are difficult to reach (necks, proximal faces, wisdom teeth).

Description

La présente invention marque un perfectionnement de l'ins -trumont de brossage,elle vise à faciliter et à améliorer l'hyg -lene des gencives et des dents. The present invention marks an improvement of the brushing -trumont, it aims to facilitate and improve the hyg -lene of the gums and teeth.

Le brossage traditionnel des dents se faisait horizontale ment,avec une brosse à poils de même longueur. Traditional toothbrushing was done horizontally with a bristle brush of the same length.

Actuellenert il est reconnu que le brossage vertical perme une meilleure hygiène gingivo-dentaire. Actuellenert it is recognized that vertical brushing allows better gingivo-dental hygiene.

La technique de brossage a progressé,or la conception et la fabrication des brosses à dents sont restées les mêmes. The brushing technique has progressed, but the design and manufacture of toothbrushes have remained the same.

Le problème technique posé est d'envisager la conception et la fabrication d'une brosse adaptée au brossage vertical. The technical problem posed is to consider the design and manufacture of a brush suitable for vertical brushing.

L'objet de l'invention est une brosse à dents dont la tête es-t munie de de rangées de poils paralleles entre elles et implantées à quatre vingt dix degrés (900) sur leur support
Dans le sens de la largeur de la tête,les poils,biseautés à quarante cinq degrés (45 ) sont de dimension croissante de l'ex -térieur vers le milieu de la bresse;il en résulte l'apparition de deux surfaces t@availlantes qui forment un V.The object of the invention is a toothbrush, the head of which is provided with rows of bristles parallel to each other and implanted at ninety degrees (900) on their support.
In the direction of the width of the head, the hairs, bevelled at forty-five degrees (45) are of increasing size from the outside to the middle of the bresse; this results in the appearance of two t @ availlantes surfaces which form a V.

Chaque versant du V forme un angle de quarante cinq degrés (45 ) avec le support d'implantation des poils.La surface travail -lante est considerablement augmentée grâce au biseautage. Each side of the V forms an angle of forty five degrees (45) with the support for implanting the bristles. The working surface is considerably increased by beveling.

Lors du brossage brosse est maintenue de telle façon que ses poils entrent en contact avec la gençive@ par leur surface travaillante.Le sommet du V est dirigé,vers le haut pour les dents maxillaires, et vers le bas pour les dents mandibulaires.  When brushing, the brush is held in such a way that its bristles come into contact with the genitals @ through their working surface. The top of the V is directed, upwards for the maxillary teeth, and downwards for the mandibular teeth.

Au cours du déplacement vertical de la brosse,un balayage s'effectue de de la gencive vers les surfaces triturantes des dents. During the vertical displacement of the brush, a sweep takes place from the gum towards the crushing surfaces of the teeth.

Les gencives sont stimulées par l'action de massage des poils de la brosse,les dents sont parfaitement nettoyées et en particulier dans les zones d'accés difficile c'est à dire les collets et les espaces inter-dentaires. The gums are stimulated by the massage action of the bristles of the brush, the teeth are perfectly cleaned and in particular in the difficult access areas, ie the collars and the inter-dental spaces.

Lors du brossage,l'encombrement dû àla brosse est minimum il est représenté par la largeur de la tête ceci est important, car,l'accés aux dents de s@gesse en est facilité. When brushing, the space due to the brush is minimum it is represented by the width of the head this is important, because, access to the teeth of s @ gesse is facilitated.

Les poils de la bro@se no subissent pas de déformation dans le temps ,car ils sont sollicités par un mouvement qui les ra- mène toujours vers l'axe médian de la brosse quelque soit le ver -sant utilisé lors du brossage,
Il s'ensuit une longévit de l'efficacité des poils de la broc pour l'utilisateur. The bristles of the bro @ se no do not undergo deformation over time, because they are stressed by a movement which always brings them back towards the median axis of the brush whatever the worm used for brushing,
It follows a longevity of the effectiveness of the pitcher hairs for the user.

Les figures 1-2-3 schématisent des coupes faites dans le sens de la largeur de la tête,elles représentent quelçses possibi @lités d'arrangement des touffes de poils selon la description qui a été faîte c'est-à-dire : deu: rangées (Fig.I). trois rangees(?ig2) quatre rangées (Fig3).Il est possible de réaliser des têtes de brosse avec des rangées de touffes de poils supplémentaires. Figures 1-2-3 show diagrams of cross-sections made in the width of the head, they represent some possibilities for arranging tufts of hair according to the description which has been made, that is to say: two : rows (Fig.I). three rows (? ig2) four rows (Fig3). It is possible to make brush heads with rows of additional tufts of bristles.


Sur les figures I-2-3 les angles désignés par la lettre
ant
A mesurent quarante cinq degrés et représent/l'angulation de la surface travaillante aveo la base d'implantation des touffes de poils.
In Figures I-2-3 the angles designated by the letter
ant
A measure forty five degrees and represent / the angulation of the working surface with the base of implantation of tufts of hair.

La figure 4 matérialise un segment de surface travaillante d'une brosse àquatre rangées de touffes de poils dans le sens de la largeur de la tete.  FIG. 4 shows a segment of the working surface of a brush with four rows of tufts of bristles across the width of the head.

Ce type de brosse présente l'avantage d'avoir des poils dont la longueur croit progressivement de l'extérieur vers le milieu de la brosse.Au cours du brossage , les poils de différente longueur épousent les surfaces gingivales et dentaires d'où:
Une action de massage et de nettoyage au niveau de la gencive et en particulierde la gencive marginale,des papilles interdentaires où la plaque dentaire difficile à éliminer est soulevée par les poils de la brosse.This type of brush has the advantage of having bristles whose length grows progressively from the outside towards the middle of the brush. During brushing, the bristles of different length follow the gingival and dental surfaces from where:
A massage and cleaning action on the gum and in particular on the marginal gum, interdental papillae where difficult to remove dental plaque is lifted by the bristles of the brush.

Une action de brossage sur toutes les surfaces dentaires et en particulier les collets,les faces proximales et toutes les zones dont la topographie limite l'efficacité du brossage.  A brushing action on all dental surfaces and in particular the collars, the proximal faces and all the areas whose topography limits the effectiveness of brushing.
