Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to the structure of a cylindrical drop receiving container that stores and stores drips falling from the handle of a toothbrush.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 In the past, during brushing, drippings and saliva drove down the handle of the toothbrush and soiled the hands of the toothbrush, the cuffs of the hand with the toothbrush, and the area around the sink. As a solution to this, conventionally, a method has been adopted in which the shape of the brush portion of the toothbrush or the portion of the brush handle that touches the lips, that is, the shape of the neck, is modified. However, these structures have not yet solved the above problems.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 This invention was devised to solve the above problems.Drips and drops of saliva run down the handle of the toothbrush during brushing, the hands with the toothbrush, the cuffs of the hands with the toothbrush, etc. Provide a container structure that receives saliva and drops so as not to stain the area around the sink.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention is a cylindrical drop receiving container for storing drips dripping from the handle of a toothbrush during tooth brushing, wherein the container has an opening at the tip and a closed bottom, and has a cylindrical shape. The bottom of the receiving container is a drop receiving container having a structure in which the flat portion or the lateral end of the end of the handle when the handle of the toothbrush is inserted is closely fitted to the inside of the container to grip the toothbrush.

Further, the present invention has a structure having a member for suppressing the swinging of the lower part of the neck of the toothbrush handle when the handle portion of the toothbrush is inserted. Alternatively, a spring or the like may be separately fitted in order to suppress this swaying motion.

[0006] Furthermore, the present invention provides a concave fitting member in which when the handle of the toothbrush is inserted, the end of the handle is closely fitted to the inside of the bottom of the cylindrical drop receiving container to fix and grip the end of the toothbrush. Is a drop receiving container having a structure provided integrally with the drop receiving container.

[Embodiment of the invention] 【Example】

 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a structure of a droplet receiving container according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 shows one embodiment of the droplet receiving container of the present invention, and is a plan sectional view taken along line AA in FIG. FIG. 3 is a plan sectional view taken along line BB of FIG. That is, the drop receiving container 3 having the above structure may be generally made of a synthetic resin, and the upper opening portion of the cylindrical container receives drops dripping from the handle 2 of the neck portion of the toothbrush during tooth brushing. Since the cartridge is housed in the cylindrical droplet receiving container 3 whose bottom is closed, the hands holding the toothbrush, the hands holding the toothbrush, and the cuffs and the surrounding washstand are not stained.

The diameter of the cylindrical droplet receiving container of the present invention may be any size as long as the inner diameter is large enough to insert and accommodate the toothbrush and not inconvenient for grasping. It only needs to cover the grip below the neck of the toothbrush.

In other words, in the present invention, a cylindrical drop receiving container 3 for receiving and storing drips dripping from the handle of the toothbrush during tooth brushing, wherein the tip of the container is open and the bottom is closed. In addition, the bottom of the cylindrical drop receiving container has a structure in which when the handle of the toothbrush is inserted, the flat portion or the lateral end at the end of the handle is closely fitted to the inside of the container and the toothbrush is gripped ( (Fig. 3).

Accordingly, the inner structure of the drop receiving container 3 may be tapered in order from the opening to the bottom of the container, and only the end portion closely grips the end of the handle 2 of the toothbrush. It may have a structure.

In the present invention, when the handle portion of the handle 2 of the toothbrush is inserted, as shown in FIG. 2, a member for suppressing the swing of the handle of the toothbrush is provided on the upper inside of the cylindrical drop receiving container. 4, or may be separately fitted with a member for suppressing the swing of the handle of the toothbrush, for example, a spring.

FIG. 4 is a vertical sectional view of a lower portion of a droplet receiving container according to another embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view taken along line BB of the droplet receiving container according to another embodiment of the present invention. FIG. According to the present invention, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, when the handle of the toothbrush is inserted, the end of the handle 2 is closely fitted to the inside of the bottom of the cylindrical drip receiving container to fix and grip the tip of the toothbrush. A structure in which the fitting member 5 is provided integrally with the droplet receiving container may be employed.

[0113]

[Effect of the invention]

 During brushing, drippings and saliva can be prevented from dripping along the handle of the toothbrush and soiling the cuffs and basins around the hands holding the toothbrush, the hands holding the toothbrush. As described above, the use of the droplet receiving container of the present invention makes it possible to brush the teeth cleanly without soiling the hands and surroundings, so that infants and sick persons with disabilities can comfortably brush their teeth.
