Abstract
Description
DESCRIPTION
La présente invention concerne un objet utilisé pour le nettoyage de la langue. Il relève de l'hygiène bucco-dentaire.DESCRIPTION
The present invention relates to an object used for cleaning the tongue. It is related to oral hygiene.
Le nettoyage de la langue n'a pas jusqu'alors été envisagé comme moyen de prévention des maladies bucco-dentaires; et pourtant tous les travaux récemment faits dans ce domaine prouvent l'intérêt de l'élimination, sur la langue, des flores bactériennes variées de la bouche, des débris alimentaires, des débris de la plaque dentaire, des débris des caries, des débris des poches parodontales, des produits de dégradation liés à la consommation de tabac sous quelque forme que ce soit, et des cellules mortes des parois buccales et des gencives. L'élimination de tous ces débris sur les surfaces des dents et des gencives -et
seulement sur ces surfaces- n'est pas suffisant.Cleaning of the tongue has not hitherto been considered as a means of preventing oral diseases; and yet all the work recently done in this field proves the interest of eliminating, on the tongue, various bacterial flora from the mouth, food debris, debris from dental plaque, debris from caries, debris from periodontal pockets, breakdown products related to tobacco consumption in any form, and dead cells of the mouth walls and gums. Removal of all this debris on the surfaces of teeth and gums -and
only on these surfaces- is not enough.
Vu la complexité de sa surface, la langue apparaît comme un réservoir important et un foyer de diffusion des colonies bactériennes (très souvent pathogènes) liées aux débris cités. Elle abrite tous les éléments favorisant la mauvaise haleine et provoquant la reconstitution de la plaque dentaire (cause majeure des caries et des poches parodontales et de nombreuses autres pathologies buccales ou même générales).Given the complexity of its surface, the tongue appears to be an important reservoir and a focal point for the spread of bacterial colonies (very often pathogenic) linked to the cited debris. It houses all the elements promoting bad breath and causing the reconstitution of dental plaque (major cause of cavities and periodontal pockets and many other oral or even general pathologies).
Le nettoyage de la langue est donc un élément important d'une hygiène bucco-dentaire complète et la garantie d'une haleine fraîche.Cleaning the tongue is therefore an important element of complete oral hygiene and the guarantee of fresh breath.
L'objet selon l'invention permettra un enttoyage effectif de la langue, ce qui, jusqu'à présent, n'a pas été correctement résolu.The object according to the invention will allow effective enttoyage of the language, which, until now, has not been correctly resolved.
Il se présente sous l'aspect d'une coupelle semi-ovalaire, pleine, prolongée par un manche (Fig. 1, Fig.2 et Fig.5).It appears as a semi-oval cup, full, extended by a handle (Fig. 1, Fig.2 and Fig.5).
Intégrée à la coupellet (1, Fig.1), fermant la partie opposée au manche (2, Fig.1), se trouve une raclette rectiligne (3, Fig. 1) dont l'angle avec la coupelle est défini (5 à 25 degrés) pour une efficacitée maximum du raclage.Integrated into the cup (1, Fig. 1), closing the part opposite to the handle (2, Fig. 1), is a straight squeegee (3, Fig. 1) whose angle with the cup is defined (5 to 25 degrees) for maximum scraping efficiency.
L'ensemble coupelle-raclette est clos (1, Fig.2) pour parfaire la collecte des débris enlevés.The cup and squeegee assembly is closed (1, Fig. 2) to complete the collection of the debris removed.
La raclette elle-même est caractérisée par sa minceur et par un bord d'attaque arrondi mais bien biseauté (1, Fig.4) pour accroître au maximum ses qualités raclantes.The squeegee itself is characterized by its thinness and by a rounded but well bevelled leading edge (1, Fig. 4) to maximize its scraping qualities.
Le dos plein de la coupelle possède une partie plate (1, Fig.3), ce qui permet à l'objet de sécher le mieux possible lorsqu'il est posé, entre deux utilisations, sur cette partie, l'oxygène de l'air et la lumière favorisant l'aseptie.The full back of the cup has a flat part (1, Fig. 3), which allows the object to dry as best as possible when it is placed, between two uses, on this part, the oxygen of the air and light favoring aseptic.
Les surfaces de l'objet selon l'invention sont lisses permettant ainsi un séchage et un nettoyge plus septiques (Fig. 1 et Fig.2).The surfaces of the object according to the invention are smooth, thus allowing more septic drying and cleaning (Fig. 1 and Fig.2).
L'objet seln l'invention peut être représenté par: -la figure 1 qui représente l'ensemble en vue cavalière par dessous; - la figure 2 qui représente l'ensemble en vue cavalière par dessus; - la figure 3 qui représente l'ensemble vu de profil; - la figure 4 qui rcprésente la coupelle en coupe verticale ; - la figure 5 qui représente l'ensemble vu par la face dorsale.The object according to the invention can be represented by: FIG. 1 which represents the assembly in a view from below; - Figure 2 which shows the assembly in a view from above; - Figure 3 which shows the assembly seen in profile; - Figure 4 which represents the cup in vertical section; - Figure 5 which shows the assembly seen from the dorsal side.
Lcs dimcnsions correspondent aux dimensions uselles des brosses à dents dites adulte , junior ou enfant . The dimensions correspond to the usual dimensions of so-called adult, junior or child toothbrushes.
Le matériau utilisé est un polymère injectable transparent ou opaque, coloré ou non; ou tout autre matériau disponible pour la réalisation d'un tel objet. The material used is a transparent or opaque injectable polymer, colored or not; or any other material available for making such an object.
