Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to an interdental brush holder capable of holding an interdental brush for cleaning an interdental portion at a predetermined position such as a washstand.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there has been known an interdental brush having a brush provided on a distal end side, which is used by pinching a base thereof. Such an interdental brush is effective for cleaning interdental areas that require delicate manipulation of the hands. However, when the user stores the interdental brush in the case after using the interdental brush, it takes time to hold the case and insert the interdental brush into the case. Also, it was sometimes difficult to insert the interdental brush into the case when inserting it from the tip of the interdental brush into the insertion slot of the case held by the hand. Furthermore, although the interdental brush is wet with water and humid, there is a possibility that air permeability may be insufficient in the case. Also, if the user places the interdental brush sideways (longitudinally) on a washbasin, etc., the interdental brush brush will not drain well even after a long period of time and moisture will remain. There is a risk that dust and the like will arrive and become unsanitary.

[Embodiment of the invention]

 Hereinafter, an embodiment in which the present invention is applied to an interdental brush holder will be described. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the interdental brush holder according to the present embodiment as viewed obliquely from the front. FIG. 2 is a plan view of the interdental brush holder. As shown in FIG. 1, the interdental brush holder 1 includes a support portion 2 and a wire portion 3 as an interdental brush holding portion. The support portion 2 is a plate member having a substantially rectangular shape (see FIG. 2) in a plan view and having a predetermined thickness, for example, made of synthetic resin, wood, or the like, and has two support holes 2a, 2a at predetermined intervals on its upper surface. The rear side surface is a fastening portion 2 to which a double-sided tape having a release paper adhered to one surface is attached. The wire portion 3 is made of a linear member, for example, a vinyl-coated wire, and is spirally wound in a vertical direction, and has a winding portion 3a in which the diameter of the lower winding is smaller than the diameter of the upper winding. An extension 3b extending in the tangential direction at the upper end of the winding portion 3a, a bent portion 3c bent substantially at right angles to the extension 3b (see FIG. 2), and an end of the bent portion 3c. It is composed of a fixing end 3d whose part is bent substantially vertically downward. Then, the end portions 3d, 3d of the wire portion 3 are inserted into the support holes 2a, 2a of the support portion 2, and are fixed to form the interdental brush holder 1.

Hereinafter, insertion and holding of the interdental brush into the interdental brush holder will be described. First, the user fastens the interdental brush holder 1 to a predetermined position such as a washstand with the fastening portion 2b of the support portion 2 by peeling off, for example, double-sided tape release paper. Then, after using the interdental brush, an interdental brush is set up from a low portion on the near side of the wire portion 3 of the interdental brush holder 1 and inserted to a predetermined depth from the brush tip. The insertion end side of the interdental brush is engaged because the diameter of the lower part of the winding part 3a is small. The interdental brush is held by the interdental brush holder 1, the water attached to the interdental brush falls downward, and the moisture is also ventilated and easily dried, so that it is maintained in a comfortable state until the next use.

In adopting the shape of the wire portion in the above embodiment, the inventor made a trial production of the wire portion. Hereinafter, the results of the trial production will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 3 is a plan view of the interdental brush holder 1 in which the trial wire portion 3 is fixed to the support portion 2. The wire portion 3 is fixed to the support portion 2 at the end of an extension 3b tangentially extending at the upper end of the winding portion 3a. For this reason, the higher part of the winding part 3a comes to the near side of the user, and the lower part becomes the other side, so that it is difficult to insert the interdental brush, and when inserting the interdental brush. Easy to make mistakes in eye measurement. In consideration of the above results, in the present invention, the extension 3b extending in the tangential direction at the upper end of the winding portion 3a of the wire portion 3 is bent substantially at a right angle, and fixed to the support portion 2 at the end 3d of the bent portion 3c. I am trying to do it. As a result, the front side of the user is lower than the opposite side, so that the interdental brush can be easily inserted and erroneous eye measurement is reduced. In the above-described embodiment, the bent portion 3c is provided substantially at a right angle to the extension 3b extending in the tangential direction at the upper end of the winding portion 3a (see FIG. 2). As shown, the angle of the bent portion 3c may be from 0 to 90 degrees with respect to the tangential direction of the upper end of the winding portion 3a. In addition, in the above-described embodiment, the interdental brush holder 1 is provided with the two wire portions 3, but may be provided at one location as shown in FIG. In the above-described embodiment, a double-sided tape is attached to the support portion 2. Instead, a suction cup made of rubber or the like is attached to the support section 2, and the suction cup is used to adsorb to a sink or the like. It may be. Further, in the above-described embodiment, the interdental brush holder 1 is fixed to the washstand or the like at the fixing portion 2b of the support portion 2, but the interdental brush holder 1 is not fixed. Alternatively, the support section 2 may be placed on a washstand or the like.
