Description

本発明は、歯茎マッサ−ジ器に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a gum massage device.

従来から、歯茎マッサージ効果を得ることを目的として、歯ブラシの植毛を歯茎に当てた状態で手動で往復運動させたり、電動で歯ブラシを振動させて歯茎をマッサ−ジする歯茎マッサ−ジ用ブラシは広く一般に知られている。 Conventionally, for the purpose of obtaining a gum massage effect, a brush for gum massage that manually reciprocates while the flock of the toothbrush is applied to the gum, or vibrates the toothbrush by electric vibration to massage the gum. Widely known.

しかしながら、歯茎のマッサ−ジは、歯周病の予防や治療、歯を健康に保つ上で極めて重要とされているが、歯のブラッシングにばかり気を取られて歯茎のブラッシングに十分な時間がとれなかったり、ブラッシングする場合も堅い歯ブラシでは歯茎が痛くて磨けず柔らかい歯ブラシではコシが弱いため力が入らず有効なマッサ−ジがなされない場合も多い。また、マッサ−ジの力加減と歯茎の状態によっては歯茎を傷つけてしまうこともある。さらに、それなりの大きさの歯ブラシを口の中に入れてブラッシングの動作に時間をかけることも非常に苦痛である。 However, gum massage is extremely important for the prevention and treatment of periodontal disease and keeping the teeth healthy. However, only the tooth brushing is distracted and sufficient time is needed for brushing the gums. Even when brushing or brushing, a hard toothbrush has a painful gum and cannot be polished, and a soft toothbrush is weak, so there is often no force applied and effective massage is not performed. Also, depending on the force of the massage and the condition of the gums, the gums may be damaged. Moreover, it is very painful to put a toothbrush of a certain size in the mouth and spend time on the brushing operation.

そこで、本発明は、従来は億劫で継続して行うことが困難な歯茎マッサ−ジを洗面所に立たず、暇な時間にテレビを見ながら、ラジオを聞きながら、あるいは新聞、雑誌を読みながらリラックスした状態で的確に歯茎マッサ−ジを行うことを可能ならしめたものであり、誰でも手軽に簡単に歯茎のマッサ−ジ効果を効率よく得ることの出来る歯茎のマッサ−ジ器を提供することを目的としている。 Therefore, the present invention does not stand a gum massage, which is difficult to carry out continuously in the past, in the bathroom, while watching TV, listening to the radio, reading newspapers, magazines, etc. in spare time. Providing a gum massaging device that enables accurate gum massaging in a relaxed state, and enables anyone to easily and efficiently obtain gum massaging effects. The purpose is that.

上記目的を達成するため、本発明は次の構成を備えている。すなわち、動力駆動の振動や超音波振動発生機能を備えた電動歯磨き具本体に設けた出力軸に、先端が流線形のマッサ−ジ部を有するへの字形をした支柱を連設したマッサ−ジを柄部を挿着してある電動歯茎マッサ−ジ器である。マッサ−ジ部の先端は、流線形で柔軟性を有する天然ゴム、合成ゴム、シリコンゴム等の低弾性率の材料を用いたこと特徴とする。 In order to achieve the above object, the present invention has the following configuration. That is, a massage in which an output shaft provided in an electric toothpaste body having a function of generating power-driven vibration and ultrasonic vibration is connected to a column-shaped support having a streamlined mass at the tip. This is an electric gum massager with the handle portion inserted. The tip of the massage portion is characterized by using a low-elasticity material such as streamlined and flexible natural rubber, synthetic rubber, or silicon rubber.

また、柄部に連設したへの字形をした支柱の先端のマッサ−ジ部には、流線形で柔軟性を有する天然ゴム、合成ゴム、シリコンゴム等の低弾性率の材料を使用することによって歯茎を傷付けることなく押し当てた時に、より歯茎部分にフイットするようになる。
さらに、への字形をした細い支柱を柄部に連設することによって口の中で、色々な角度を取ることが出来るので歯茎の裏側や口の奥にまで容易に届き、口の中でマッサ−ジの動作を容易にとることができ、マッサ−ジ部を的確に歯茎部分に導くことができる。In addition, a low-elasticity material such as natural rubber, synthetic rubber, silicon rubber, etc., which is streamlined and flexible, should be used for the mass portion at the tip of the U-shaped support column continuously connected to the handle portion. When it is pressed without damaging the gums, it will fit more on the gums.
In addition, by connecting a thin strut with a rounded shape to the handle, it is possible to take various angles in the mouth, so it can easily reach the back of the gums and the back of the mouth, -The movement of the die can be taken easily, and the massage part can be accurately guided to the gum part.

本発明に係るマッサ−ジ器によれば、歯ブラシ等を使用することなく、への字形をした支柱の先端に装着した流線形のマッサ−ジ部の柔軟材を介して振動が歯茎に直接伝達されるので、歯茎を摩擦などで傷つけることなく、的確にこまめにマッサ−ジすることができ、歯茎の健康維持に効果的に利用することが出来る。According to the massage device according to the present invention, vibration is directly transmitted to the gums through the flexible material of the streamlined massage portion attached to the tip of the U-shaped support column without using a toothbrush or the like. As a result, the gum can be massaged accurately and accurately without damaging the gum due to friction or the like, and can be effectively used for maintaining the health of the gum.

本発明にかかる歯茎マッサ−ジ器の一実施の形態を図１に示す。
まず、基本構成の一つとして図１に示すように動力駆動の振動や超音波振動発生機能を備えた電動マッサ−ジ具本体（１）に設けた出力軸（２）に、先端が流線形のマッサ−ジ部（５）を装着したへの字形をしたマッサ−ジ部支柱基台（４）を連設したマッサ−ジ柄部（３）の開口部（７）を挿着する。電動マッサ−ジ具本体（１）で発生した振動がマッサ−ジ柄部（３）とへの字形をしたマッサ−ジ部支柱基台（４）を経て、への字形をしたマッサ−ジ部支柱基台（４）の先端に装着してある流線形で柔軟性を有するマッサ−ジ部（５）の天然ゴム、合成ゴム、シリコンゴム等の低弾性率の柔軟材を介して直接歯茎に伝達されることを特徴とする電動歯茎マッサ−ジ器である。An embodiment of a gum massage device according to the present invention is shown in FIG.
First, as shown in FIG. 1, the tip of the basic structure is streamlined to the output shaft (2) provided in the main body (1) of the electric massage tool having a function of generating power-driven vibration and ultrasonic vibration. The opening portion (7) of the massage pattern portion (3) provided with a mass-shaped mass support column base (4) connected to the massage portion (5) is inserted. A massage portion having a U-shape, with vibrations generated in the electric massage tool body (1) passing through the mass-shaped pattern portion (3) and the mass support column base (4). Directly attached to the gums through a low elasticity flexible material such as natural rubber, synthetic rubber, silicon rubber, etc. of the streamlined and flexible massage portion (5) attached to the tip of the support base (4) An electric gum massage device that is transmitted.

先端が流線形のマッサ−ジ部（５）は、流線形の直径が１．８〜２．２ｃｍで長さが１〜１．５ｃｍ程度のシリコンゴム等の柔軟材が適当である。
マッサ−ジ部（５）の先端を流線形でシリコンゴム等の低弾性率の柔軟材を使用することによって電動歯茎きブラシの様にマッサ−ジの力加減や歯磨き時間により歯茎を傷つけることなく、また、電動歯茎きブラシの様にブラシ部分が大きくなく、小さな流線形の形をしているので口内で的確に歯茎をマッサ−ジすることが出来る。For the massage portion (5) having a streamline tip, a flexible material such as silicon rubber having a streamline diameter of 1.8 to 2.2 cm and a length of about 1 to 1.5 cm is suitable.
The tip of the massage part (5) is streamlined and uses a soft material with low elastic modulus such as silicone rubber, so that the gums are not damaged by the force of the massage or the brushing time like an electric gum brush. Also, unlike the electric gum brush, the brush portion is not large and has a small streamline shape, so that the gum can be accurately massaged in the mouth.

への字形をしたマッサ−ジ部支柱基台（４）の支柱は、線径が２ｍｍ程度の鉄、ステンレス等の金属や軽金属等が適当であるがへの字形をしたマッサ−ジ部支柱基台（４）として耐えられる他の材料を使用することも出来、また、線径は、１．５〜３ｍｍ程度でも良い。への字形をしたマッサ−ジ部支柱基台（４）の支柱の先端の角度は３０度程度が適当であるが３０〜５０度の間の角度でも良い。
また、への字形をしたマッサ−ジ部支柱基台（４）の支柱は、電動歯磨きブラシの支柱よりほそく、先端は角度がついてへの字形をしているので、口の中で先端が流線形のマッサ−ジ部（５）を容易に操作でき、さらに口の奥の歯茎にも的確に誘導できる。The support column base (4) with a U-shaped shape is suitable for a metal or light metal such as iron or stainless steel with a wire diameter of about 2 mm, but with a U-shaped mass support column base. Other materials that can withstand the table (4) can be used, and the wire diameter may be about 1.5 to 3 mm. The angle of the tip of the support of the mass-shaped support column base (4) having a rounded shape is suitably about 30 degrees, but may be an angle between 30 and 50 degrees.
In addition, the brace-shaped mass support column base (4) has a column-shaped support (4) that is closer to the end of the electric toothpaste brush and has an angled tip. The linear massage portion (5) can be easily operated, and can be accurately guided to the gums at the back of the mouth.

歯茎マッサ−ジ具（８）は、電動マッサ−ジ具本体１と一体成形であっても、或いは着脱自在に装着して使用するものであっても良い。The gum massage tool (8) may be integrally formed with the electric massage tool body 1 or may be used by being detachably mounted.

また、歯茎マッサ−ジ具（８）は、一般に市販されている電動歯磨き機の替えブラシと同じ位の長さなので、電動歯磨き機のブラシに替えて装着しても違和感なく歯茎マッサ−ジをすることもできる。The gum massage tool (8) is about the same length as the replacement brushes for electric toothbrushes that are generally available on the market. You can also
