BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a brush with a cleaner for a pet or person having a brush pin that can be moved back and forth with respect to a brush base.
[0002]
[Prior art]
When using a brush for pets or the like, the hair loss gets entangled with the brush pin of the brush while preparing the hair, and it is necessary to remove the hair loss from the brush pin or the brush pedestal part each time. Japanese Patent No. 192125 proposes a hair brush that can easily remove hair remaining between combs after combing hair. This hair brush is equipped with a slide plate that lifts the hair remaining in the comb on the flocked surface side of the brush pin and a stopper so that the slide plate does not come off. By removing the slide plate, hair loss can be easily removed. It is supposed to be possible. Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2000-175740 also proposes a hair brush that easily removes hair loss as described above. The brush pedestal of the brush pin is divided into rows, and each divided portion can be moved separately. It is said that hair loss can be easily removed.
[0003]
Furthermore, since brush pins stand upright on the brush pedestal, and a large space for the brush is required for carrying, a proposal for a hair brush that can shrink the brush body is disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 57-172534. Has been. This hair brush is said to be able to shrink the entire brush by implanting brush pins on a bendable brush substrate and bending the brush substrate.

[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Thus, in order to remove the hair entangled with the brush pin and the brush pedestal or to make the brush easy to carry, the above proposal has been made. However, in the hair brush described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 11-192125, it is easy to remove hair loss by lifting the movable plate upward, but since the bundle of hair loss remains as it is by leaving the brush base, It remains tangled and requires the fingers to be put into many brush pins. In addition, the hair brush described in JP-A-2000-175740 divides the brush pedestal part and releases part of the hair brush to make it easier to remove hair loss. It is difficult to remove. Therefore, these hair brushes are not sufficient to remove hair loss. On the other hand, since these brush pins remain upright, they are bulky and have low portability.
[0005]
Further, in the hair brush described in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 57-172534, the brush body itself contracts and is compact and excellent in portability. However, no consideration is given to removing hair loss.
As described above, these hair brushes do not solve the problem that it is difficult to remove hair loss and the problem that portability is low.
The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and it is possible to remove most of hair loss in a single operation without having to manually remove hair entangled in the brush pin or using an auxiliary tool. In addition, the brush pin can be reduced and stored in the brush pedestal so that it is not troublesome to remove the hair entangled with the brush pin, and a brush that is convenient to carry is obtained. With the goal.

By pulling the ring portion 7, the movable brush body 12 is in a contracted state, and the brush pin 3 is accommodated in the casing 25. Next, the ring portion 7 and the rod portion 8 are tilted toward the grip 2 to make it compact. Then, by reverse operation at the time of use, the movable brush body 12 is set in a discrete state, and the brush pin 3 protrudes from the casing 25 and returns to the use state.
[0020]
Since the casing 25 is composed of the removable brush frame 4 and the brush pedestal portion 5, the casing 25 is convenient for cleaning and can always maintain a hygienic state. In addition, parts are easily replaced when damaged.
When used for pets such as dogs and cats, the hair often comes off when the hair-growth operation is performed, and these hairs get entangled with the brush surface such as the brush pin 3, so it is necessary to clean each time. By using the brush of the present invention, most hair loss can be easily removed with a single operation. In particular, specialists who handle pets need to prepare the hair of a dog or the like in a short time. Therefore, the use of the brush of the present invention makes the work easier and less time-consuming. When not in use, the movable brush body 12 can be stored in a contracted state, so that a convenient place for carrying can be reduced.
[0021]
Since the grip 2 has a side-curved shape, it is easy to hold and does not get tired even if it is held for a long time. When the hole 21 provided at the tip of the grip 2 is hung on a hook or the like, it can be installed at a predetermined place when not in use, which is convenient. Since the casing 25 has rounded corners and has a rounded shape as a whole, the casing 25 has a good feeling when held in the hand and does not damage the outer surface of a pet such as a dog or cat. Moreover, it can be made the thing excellent in the designability by changing the color of each member.
[0022]
In the above-described embodiment, a large number of brush pins and a single operation member are attached to the inner plate, and the interval and the number of brush pins are fixed. Therefore, the roughness of the brush pins cannot be changed. Here, a plurality of inner plates such as two or three are provided in the casing, and brush pins and operation members are attached to the inner plates, respectively, as in the first embodiment. And it can also be set as embodiment which each brush pin attached to this inner plate operates independently on a brush surface by curving each inner plate independently by each operation member.
[0023]
In such an embodiment, since the roughness of the brush pin can be changed by the pulling operation member, the interval between the brush pins can be adjusted without preparing a plurality of brushes. Can be obtained.
Moreover, you may use the brush concerning this invention not only for pets but for people.
The embodiment of the present invention is as described above, but the design can be changed according to various other embodiments.
