【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は発光体を具備する光電池イオン歯ブラシに関するものであり、より詳しくは、光エネルギーを電気エネルギーに変換する光電池を柄というハンド部の一端に設置し、柄より歯磨き部の方向に柄と一体に形成した帯状の絶縁体の両側の方向に半円筒で形成した導電体を絶縁体を境界に設置し、1つの線上に構成された導電体部に電気的直流回路を構成する光電池の(+)極に接続する導電体の表面積より(−)極に接続する導電体の表面積を導電部にて、より広く形成し、唾液等の水分との接触で効率的に水素イオン(H)の分極作用を促進する結果還元、酸化反応の電気化学反応をより効率的に助長させることで従来の技術及び他の従来の技術の欠点を改めると同時にハンド部から連続され導電部を構成する絶縁体の先端に設置されて発光ダイオード(LED)を光電池と導電体と電気的に接続して光起電力による光を利用して歯と口腔衛生状態を確認することが簡単にできると同時に電圧の比率により2色に点灯する光の色により、適切な電圧を識別することができる様にすることにより歯及び口腔衛生状態を向上させることができる光電池と導電体と2色LEDを具備した光電池イオン歯ブラシに関するものである。本発明で言及する電気的接続と言うのは各部材要素間の直列接続または並列接続及び直列接続と並列接続の混合接続を含む。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
陰イオン及びフッ素を歯の組織に浸透させる方法で特許公告88−17(1988.2.15)の従来の技術は歯磨き部と柄を別体で構成し、この柄に1.5Vの酸化銀電池を内臓すると同時に歯磨き部の先の方向に導体部材を植設して(−)極を導体部材に接続し(+)極は電池→歯ブラシの柄の端子→手→身体→歯に至る電気回路を構成することによって低い電圧で抵抗が大きい人体を回路として利用する、この従来の技術は開知事項として水の実質的理論分解電圧である1.77Vに対し、1.5Vの電圧を利用しているために実質的理論分解の電圧より、より低い電圧で抵抗が大きい人体を電気回路の一部として利用する点に於いて充分な反応可否が憂慮される問題点があった。又、電池の特性である自然放電の現象及び使用回数と時間の経過に比例して電圧がだんだん低くなる結果、一定期間が経過後の反応と効果の可否も憂慮される点があった。そして、電池の電力が消費された後には歯ブラシの柄に設置されている、導体性材料と共に一括破棄をしなければならない材料、及び資源浪費という問題点がある。
歯ブラシとは歯面に付着した異物質を除去する物理的掃除道具と定義される。従い、歯ブラシは清潔性が重要である。しかし、この従来の歯ブラシは導体部材と歯磨き部の挿入口と連通管の結合状態に於いて挿入口と連通管の側面の間隔が無く、歯磨き後、口腔内に残存していた食べ物のかす等の異物質がはさまり残る為、非衛生的であった。又、この異物質を除去する為には毎回歯磨き部を挿入口より分離し、そうじしなければならない問題点が有る。
上記、技術の欠点を解消する方法として公告されたまた他の従来の技術の特許公告90ー7539(1990.10.15)は、やはり歯ブラシのヘッド部と歯ブラシの柄を別体で構成し、N型半導体を柄の先端より歯ブラシのヘッド部の方向に植設し光照射下にて水分の接触が並行する時、湿式光触媒反応による酸化還元反応の結果、歯の衛生効果を期待する技術である。ここで、水分というのは、光の通過性が優秀な透明な水を指す。より詳しくは、光の遮断要素が排除された条件にて、N型半導体の電解反応を期待することができるものである。しかし、現実的にN型半導体歯ブラシの歯磨きが履行されている状況を考察してみると、水+歯磨き粉+唾液+口腔内に残存する食べ物のかす等が混合された不透明な液体で形成されたうがい水がN型半導体と結合して形成された歯磨き部の貯水溝に深く、厚くN型半導体を被膜する結果、光が遮断される為、N型半導体の光触媒反応を期待することができない欠点が有った。さらに光を遮断するうがい水+歯磨き粉+唾液+口腔内に残存する食べ物のかす等の被膜層が形成されたN型半導体が光が無い暗い口腔内にて光触媒反応を期待することはとても難しい。又、他の従来の技術では、他の実施例で、N型半導体と良導体を縦方向にオミック接触させ、一端は歯ブラシの柄に内臓された電池の一極に接続し、電池の他の一極は柄に設置された良導体に接続し、電池→良導体→手→身体→歯に至る抵抗が大きい人体を電気回路として利用するこの実施例は、他の従来の技術が″発明の詳しい説明″にて自分が指摘した欠点を再現する結果を招来することになり自身の発明の矛盾という問題点が有る。
上記実施例に従う場合、電池の特性である、自然放電、及び長期的に使用する事により電力が全て消費された後は、歯ブラシに設置されている良導体と半導体迄も破棄しなければならないという材料と資源浪費という欠点が発生する事になる。
そして、又、他の従来の技術にても歯ブラシのヘッドと柄との結合状態にあり、N型半導体を中心とし、歯ブラシのヘッド部と側面の間隔が形成されていず、歯磨き後、汚れた水や異物質が引っ掛かり残存し、非衛生的という問題点が有った。又、この異物質を除去する為には、毎回歯ブラシのヘッド部を柄からはずして綺麗にしなければならない問題点が有った。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする技術的課題】
本発明の目的は、上記と同じ従来の技術、及び、他の従来の技術の問題点を解消し、より効率的な分極作用を助長し、還元、酸化反応を促進する結果、口腔内のpHの中和、プラーク、虫歯及び歯槽膿漏の原因菌を分解し、歯及び口腔衛生状態を効率的に向上させ、光電池に作用される発光ダイオード(LED)及びハンド部にて連続される絶縁体の先端に設置し光気電力の電圧を識別し、歯の健康状態を確認点検する事ができる発光体を具備する光電池イオン歯ブラシ及び、光電池電動イオン歯ブラシを提供することにある。
【0004】
上記と同じ目的を達成する為に、本発明による発光体を具備する光電池イオン歯ブラシの特徴は、射出成形行程にて、ハンド部と一体に成形された歯磨き部の方向の細い幅の帯状の絶縁体に導電体を設置し直流回路を構成し光電池の(+)極に接続される導電体の表面積より光電池の(ー)極に接続される導電体の表面積を導電部にてより広く形成し唾液との接触面積が広く構成され陰(−)電極が水素イオン(H)の吸着率を促進する結果、効率的な分極作用による還元酸化反応が招来され極大の歯みがき効果を追求する事ができる。
【0005】
【問題を解決する為の手段】
上記の従来の技術と本発明の違う点は、従来の技術では、酸化還元反応を誘導するエネルギー源が一般の電池である点に対し、本発明は天恵の無限なる資源である光を利用し、導電部の導電体形成と構成に於いて従来の技術は、電池の(ー)極は導体部材に接続し、電池の(+)極は抵抗が大きい人体を電気回路として利用し、個人の抵抗差による反応と効果の可否が憂慮された点に対し、本発明は導電体帯状の一側には光電池の(+)極に接続される導電体を設置し他方の側では光電池(−)極に接続される導電体を設置し電気的直流回路を構成する導電部にて(+)極の導電体表面績より(−)極の導電体の表面的をより広く形成して光電池より適切な電圧の供給を受ける導電体は口腔内外の場所と位置は不問いであり、水素イオン(H)を効率的に吸着する結果、分極作用と酸化、還元反応が加速的に発揮されより効果的な歯磨き効果を期待する事ができる点である。
導電体に適切な電圧を供給し使用者に合った適切な電圧を産出する方法で通電の強弱を識別し、選択する事ができる発光体の点灯に必要な適切な電圧を獲得する方法としては、使用者が歯磨きをする時、ハンド部の一端に設置された光電池の表面積を広く持つか、隠して狭く持って、光が当る面積を自由に調節し使用者に合った電圧供給を受ける事ができる。本発明による実施例の光電池は、縦10mm×横40mm×高さ1.1mmで、10個のセル(Cell)で形成されていて、ここで受ける電圧は5Vであり、出力18Wの近紫外線をよく放射する蛍光灯を1.5mの距離から光照射を実施し獲得した測定値である。
【0007】
そして、従来の技術では、挿入口を中心として連通管との結合状態に於いて、挿入口と連通管の側面の間隔が無く、歯磨きの後、汚れた水が残り非衛生的な点と毎回歯磨き部を分離して掃除をしなければならない不便な点に対し、本発明は柄から歯磨き部の方向に連続してある絶縁体及び導電体で構成される線上形の導電部の直径と歯磨き部からハンド部方向に導電部長さ位連通され連通穴の直径を各々大きくて小さく構成して、歯磨き部を導電部に結合した時、導電部と歯磨き部内部の方の間に円形の間の間隔が1mmに形成される構成である。そして歯磨き部の連通穴は直径方向で適切な大きさの複数個の穿孔を構成することで異物質の流通路及び水液の移動通路を作ることにより、うがい水の異物質が残らない様になり、水液の移動通路としての役割により、効率的な還元、酸化反応が発揮される点が従来の技術と違う本発明の特徴である。
【0008】
上記、他の従来の技術と本発明が異なる点は、他の従来の技術にては、酸化、還元反応を発揮させる方法として、光触媒反応をするN型半導体を利用しているが貯水溝にあるN型半導体が歯磨きをする時できる水+歯磨き粉+唾液+飲食物の残りかす等で混合されている、不透明な水が貯水溝の深さと厚みで比較的厚い層を形成しN型半導体を被膜し、光を遮断する状態で、光が無い口腔内にての光触媒反応を期待することができない点に対し、本発明は上記の従来の技術に於いて記述したのと同様ハンド部の片側に光電池と導電部と電気的回路を構成する(+)極回路を形成する導電体の表面積より(ー)極を形成する導電体の表面積を導電部にてより広く形成することによって水素イオン(H)の分極作用が促進される結果、導電体を被膜するうがい水の被膜層の厚さに関係なく効率的な、還元、酸化反応が発揮される点である。
【0009】
そして、上記他の従来の技術の他の実施例である、電池→良導体→N型半導体で一極を形成する場合、電池の電力が全て消費された後には、本体に設置した各種の導体性材料と共に半導体まで廃棄しなければならない材料と資源浪費の問題点に対し、本発明は天恵の無限なる、光エネルギーを電源として活用し、光電池の半永久性を考慮し、絶縁体と組み合わさってる歯磨き部と導電部を別に形成し、着脱式の結合分離型に構成する事によって、資源有効活用に寄与する事ができる点と、他の一極を電池→良導体→手→身体→歯に至る抵抗が大きい人体を電気回路として利用するのに対し、本発明は導電部に(+)極と(ー)極が形成された電気的直流回路を形成し、効率的な還元、酸化反応を期待する事ができる点である。
又、他の従来の技術もやはり、挿入部とN型半導体が公設された本体との結合された状態にあっては、N型半導体と結合された挿入部との側面の間隔が形成されていず、汚れたうがい水が染み込むのが放置され、非衛生的な点に対し、本発明は歯磨き部と導電部の結合で構成されている1mm間隔のイオン部を形成し異物質が残存することができる可能性を排除し、水液の移動通路としての役割による、分極作用及び還元、酸化反応で、歯、及び口腔衛生が向上される点である。
【0010】
本発明の他の目的は、ハンド部と一体に形成され歯磨き部の結合で導電部を構成する絶縁体の先端に光電池に作用する発光体すなわち,発光ダイオード(LED:Light Emitting Doide)を設置し発光する光の色で光起電力の電圧を識別し使用者に適切で適合した電圧を供給する発光体を具備した光電池イオン歯ブラシを提供しようというものである。この発光ダイオード(LED)の(ー)極は基板の抵抗器を経由して導電部で陰電極を形成する導電体に接続されている。発光ダイオード(LED)の(+)極は陽電極を形成する導電体に接続され導電部では還元酸化反応が発揮されると同時に発光ダイオード(LED)では光を発揮し美的要素を加えることによって新鮮感を誘発する為、子供達の好奇心を誘導して歯みがきを助長すると同時に鏡を見ながら口腔内のすみずみまで発光ダイオード(LED)の光で歯の衛生状態の確認点検が容易であり歯及び口腔衛生を効率的に向上させ維持する事ができる。
【0011】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、添付図面を参考にして本発明を詳細に説明すると次の様になる。
図1ないし図2は、本発明の第1実施例として導電部の先端に発光体を具備した光電池イオン歯ブラシを図にしたものである。柄(1)を含むハンド部(2)の片側に光電池(3)を設置し、この光電池(3)の上に0.5mmの高さで間隔を形成した後、光通過性と外部衝撃を考慮して、透明性と緩衝性が良好な保護フイルム(4)を設置した後、縁をゴムで圧搾して固定させた。
【0012】
射出成形の工程でハンド部(2)と同体の帯状に形成された歯磨き部(8)に連続された導電部(5)を構成する絶縁体(6)の帯状の一側に導電体(5a)を設置し抵抗器(9)の一端に接続した後この抵抗器(9)のもう一方の一端をハンド部(2)に設置された光電池(3)の(−)極に電気的に接続し導電体(5b)は絶縁体(6)の他の一方側に設置し光電池(3)の(+)極に電気的に接続する導電部(5)で(−)極に構成された導電体(5a)の表面積を(+)極に構成された導電体(5b)の表面績より2倍以上の広さで構成される事が望ましいが効率的な電解反応を誘導する為には適切な比率で構成しなければならない。上記構成に於て光電池(3)に光があたれば光起電力による電流は導電部(5)を構成する絶縁体(6)に 設置された導電体(5a,5b)に導電され導電部(5)に形成された水液移動通路(10)にて水液等と接触し還元酸化反応による光電気化学反応が発揮される。そして絶縁体(6)の先端に設置された発光ダイオード(7)は導電体(5a,5b)に電気的に接続され光電池(3)に光が照射されると常時的に点灯される様に構成したものである。
【0013】
水液の電解反応に於いて、電位差による水素イオン(H)の還元反応による酸化反応が進行することによって電流の強さに比例して水素イオン(H)化を促進する方法として水液に反応する、陰電極の表面積を陽電極の表面積よりも、より広く形成し、効率的な還元、酸化反応を発揮させようとするものである。本発明に伴う水素イオン(H)の電解反応の促進の為の方法の2要素である電流の強さは光電池(3)の表面を広く持つか、隠して持って、光気電力を調節して獲得することができると同時に直流回路が構成される、電動部(5)の陰電極の表面積を陽電極の表面積より、より広く形成し加速的なイオン反応を期待することができる点である。
陰電極での反応:2H+2e→H↑ [1]
陽電極での反応:HO→1/2O+2H+2e [2]
電反応 :HO→H+1/2O [3]
上記1式ないし3式のイオン反応式の為には、陰電極の表面積を陽電極の表面積より導電部(5)にて、より広く形成することによって歯みがき効果を期待する事ができる。また陰電極と陽電極の電位差を期待して陰電極と陽電極の表面積比率を同じにするか陽電極の表面積を広くすることもできる。後方の方法提案する事ができるが効率的な実施例ではない。
【0014】
図3の(ア)と(イ)は本発明の第1実施例にともなうA−A線とB−B線による縦断面図である。
導電部(5)と絶縁体(6),導電体(5a,5b)が線上に形成した状態で円形に形成される水液移動通路(10)を1mmの間隔を形成することにより、汚れたうがい水が残らない様になり、唾液等の水液がこの水液移動通路(10)を経由する間、光電池イオン反応が発揮される。
【0015】
図4,5は本発明による第2実施例を表わしている。この実施例では第1実施例による類似類型に20を加えた。柄(21)というハンド部(22)の一側と他の一側に光電池(27,27a)を内設し電気的に接続して、ON−OFFスイッチ(23)及び導電部(24)と電気的に接続して、柄(21)で歯磨き部(26)に連続して導電部(24)持ち導電体(24a,24b)を受容する絶縁体(25)の先端に発光ダイオード(28)を設置し一端は導電体(24a)に接続して他方の一端は導電体(24b)に接続することによって上記第1実施例と同じ電気的に形成した直流回路に発光ダイオード(28)が接続されスイッチ(23)によってコントールされる発光体を設置した光電池イオン歯ブラシを形成するものである。
【0016】
図6,7は本発明による第3実施例を表わしている。この実施例では第1実施例の類似類型の材料に30を加えた。第3実施例ではより効率的な光電池化学反応を創出する為の導電体(33a)の構成に関する事として1個の線上に直流回路を構成する陰電極+陽電極+陰電極を構成しすなわち,上記第1実施例にて第2実施例にて実施した陰電極の表面積を陽電極の表面積より広く形成し陰電極と陽電極の形成によって直流回路を構成する点において第3実施例では陰電極+陽電極の形成に陰電極をもう1つ設置し直流回路を構成してより効率的な光電池化学反応を創出しようとするものである。
図6に表わした様に導電体(33b)に絶縁体(33c)をさし込み組立てた後、導電体(33d)を絶縁体(33c)の上にさして組立て絶縁体(33e)を導電体(33d)の上にさして組立てた後、導電体(33f)を絶縁体(33e)の上にさした後絶縁体で形成されたナット(33g)で導電体(33b)のボルトにネジ組立てで圧着させて異物質の流入が防止されると同時に導電体(33a)が構成される。発光ダイオード(34)を導電体(33b)と導電体(33d)に電気的に連結した後、導電体(33a)を光電気(35)に電気的に連結させハンド部(32)に装着した後にインサート射出をしながら望ましくないうがい水の流入を排除する導電部(33)が形成される。本実施例では使われる絶縁体の材料は通常のプラスチックまたはゴムを射出成形して組立てたものである。
【0017】
図7は、図6のC−C線による縦断面図である。
図8は本発明による第4実施例を図示したものでこの実施例では第1実施例の類似類型の材料に40を加えて説明する。第4実施例は発光体を具備した導電体に直流回路を形成し光起電力で作動する光電池イオン歯ブラシに於て小型電動モーター(43)をハンド部(42)に内させ微細な振動を発揮させながら歯及び口腔衛生の効果をより一層創出しようというものである。ハンド部(42)の一端に設置したON−OFFスイッチ(44)をつけると電動モーター(43)が作動すると同時に絶縁体(46)に形成された。導電体(45a,45b)に導電され絶縁体(46)の先端に設置した発光ダイオード(47)に電気的に連結され発光ダイオード(47)を点灯させると同時に導電体(45a,45b)では光電池化学反応が発揮さる。
【0018】
図9は本発明による第5実施例を表わす。この実施例では第1実施例の類似類型の材料に50を加えて説明する。
柄(51)というハンド部(52)一端に3段スイッチ(53)と光電池(54)を設置し、ハンド部(52)の内部には小型蓄電池(55)と小型電動モーター(56)と逆流防止ダイオード(55a)を具備した電子回路基板を内装した。附属品たちは相互電気的に接続されていてスィッチの作動によって電子回路基板に取附されたプログラムによって必要する部分に電源が認可になる構成である。光電池(54)に光が照射される状態でこの歯ブラシを使う時スイッチ(53)を1段につけると蓄電池(55)の電力は電動モーター(56)を駆動させると同時に光電池の電力は電子回路基板を経由して導電部(57)の導電体(57a,57b)に直流回路の電気が認可になる。絶縁体(58)に設置した導電体(57a,57b)が光電池(54)の起電力に導電され電気的に連結された発光ダイオード(59)を点灯させる電気的接続で効率的な歯みがき効果を追求する事ができる。スイッチ(53)を2段目につけると光電池(54)で発生させる光起電力は逆流防止ダイオード(55a)を経由して蓄電池(55)に電気的に接続させる結果、充電をする様に構成した。スイッチ(53)を3段目につけると絶縁状態で過充電を防止する電気的接続を構成した。
【0019】
上記、第1、2、3、4、及び第5実施例に於て発光体を具備する光電気イオン歯ブラシ及び光電気電動イオン歯ブラシは合成樹脂等で形成され、導電体はステンレスなど電気を通じることができる物質なら十分で絶縁体は合成樹脂及びゴムなどを射出成形して構成した。そして、光電池の半永久性を考え歯磨き部を別に形成し、着脱組み立て型であり親環境的にもふさわしい実施例である。又、第1実施例ないし、第5実施例に於いては、導電部及びハンド部の一端に具備されている、発光ダイオードは、電圧の強弱によって色が 変換される2色LEDを設置したが元素周期律表第3族と第5族の元素を組み合わせ赤、オレンジ色、黄色、青、緑等の色を構成し消費者の趣向に呼応して販売促進に寄与する事も望ましい実施例である。
【0020】
【特許の効果】
以上で記述した通り、本発明は発光体を具備した光電池イオン歯ブラシに関するものであり、『特許の効果』に関しては従来の技術と違う従来の記述に対し、本発明を対比して説明をする。
【0021】
従来の技術の実施例に伴う欠点としては、電池の寿命の有限性で材料が浪費される点、低い電圧で抵抗が大きい人体を電気回路として利用している点、水の実質的理論分解の電圧である、1.77Vに足らない電圧を利用する点、連通管に思わしくない異物質がうがい水の残存する点、毎回歯磨き部分を分離してそうじをしなければならない点等、本発明の実施例で是正すると同時に、より効率的な歯及び口腔衛生状態を向上させようとしている。従来の技術に対し、本発明の第1の効果では、電解反応を発揮させる方法で、光電池を利用し、天恵の資源を有効に活用すると同時に自然放電及び、電力消費等で、電圧が弱くなる問題点が無く、電源の有限性で使用中に歯ブラシ及び、材料等を廃棄しなければならなかった資源浪費の問題点が無い半永久的寿命の光電池を利用し、抵抗が大きい人体を導体に電気回路の一部として利用した従来の技術の欠点を解消し、使用者各各の人体抵抗が克服され、使用者に丁度良い電圧を供給することができる。そして、水の電解反応に必要な実質的、最小理論分解電圧に相応する電圧、又は、電解反応の加速化に必要な、それ以上の電圧を光照射率に対応される、光電池の表面を広く持ったり、隠して持って周辺の条件に関係無く必要な電圧を持続的に供給する事ができ、効率的な分極作用が創出できると同時に、従来の技術の欠点が是正される。
【0022】
従来の技術に対し、本発明の第2の効果としては、導電体の構成に於いて、細い1個の線上に直流回路を形成し、水液移動通路を形成する導電部にて陽電極の表面積より陰電極の表面積をより広く形成させ、効率的な電解反応の核心要素である電圧の強さにイオン反応の面積を比例的に広げ、効率的な分極作用による還元酸化を招来すると同時に、従来の技術である、抵抗が大きい人体を導体として利用してきた欠点が解消されるものである。
【0023】
又、本発明による第3実施例(図6)にて表す通り導電体(33b,33d,33f)と絶縁体(33c,33e,33g)の上記、実施例による順次的結合により、導電部(33a)が形成される細い1つの帯状に陰電極+陽電極+陰電極を形成し、陰電極の表面積を陽電極の表面積より、より広く構成し、水素イオン(H)のイオン化を促進する電気的直流回路を構成し、より効率的な光電池化学反応を期待することができる。
本発明の第3の効果として、本発明の第1実施例ないし、第5実施例に表す通り、導電部を構成する絶縁体及び導電体の先端に2色発光ダイオード(LED:Light Emitting Diode)を設置し電気的に導電体に接続して電圧の比率によって赤,黄,青,緑等に点灯するものである。上記の構成によって発光する色で使用者はどの程度の電圧が光電池から発生しているのかを識別することができ、発光した色によって自分に適切な電圧であるかどうかを目で確認する事ができるものである。又、歯磨き後、鏡を見て暗い口腔内を照らし、心配される歯の衛生状態を観察することもできる。又、口腔内外にてうがい水の唾液が混ざった中に光を発揮することにより、清純感や新鮮感を感じることができることからも、子供達の歯磨きの欲求を助長する事もでき、ショールーム又は、マーケット内での陳列状態で色がある光を発揮し視線を誘導する為、販売促進効果も期待する事ができる。
【0024】

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Of the band-shaped insulator formed onBoth sidesFrom the surface area of the conductor connected to the (+) pole of the photovoltaic cell that constitutes the electrical DC circuit in the conductor part formed on one line with the conductor formed as a semi-cylinder in the direction (-) The surface area of the conductor connected to the pole is formed wider at the conductive portion, and hydrogen ions (H+As a result of promoting the polarization action of), the electrochemical reaction of the reduction and oxidation reaction is promoted more efficiently, thereby improving the drawbacks of the conventional technique and other conventional techniques, and at the same time, the conductive part is formed continuously from the hand part. It is easy to check the teeth and oral hygiene status by using the light generated by the photovoltaic power by connecting the light emitting diode (LED) with the photovoltaic cell and the conductor. A photovoltaic cell, a conductor, and a two-color LED that can improve the dental and oral hygiene conditions by making it possible to identify an appropriate voltage according to the color of light that is lit in two colors according to the ratio of The present invention relates to an ion toothbrush. The electrical connection referred to in the present invention includes a series connection or a parallel connection between the member elements and a mixed connection of the series connection and the parallel connection.
[0002]
[Prior art]
  The conventional technique of Patent Publication 88-17 (1988.2.15) is a method in which anion and fluorine are infiltrated into a tooth tissue, and a toothbrush portion and a handle are separately formed, and 1.5 V silver oxide is added to the handle. At the same time that the battery is built in, a conductor member is implanted in the direction of the toothpaste, and the (−) pole is connected to the conductor member, and the (+) pole is the battery → the terminal of the toothbrush handle → the hand → the body → the electricity leading to the teeth By constructing a circuit, a human body having a low voltage and a large resistance is used as a circuit. This conventional technology uses a voltage of 1.5 V as a matter of knowledge, compared to 1.77 V, which is a substantial theoretical decomposition voltage of water. Therefore, there is a problem that there is a concern about whether or not sufficient reaction is possible in using a human body having a lower voltage and a higher resistance as a part of the electric circuit than the voltage of the practical theoretical decomposition. In addition, as a result of the spontaneous discharge phenomenon, which is a characteristic of the battery, and the voltage gradually decreasing in proportion to the number of times of use and the passage of time, there is a concern about the reaction and the effectiveness of the effect after a certain period of time. And after the electric power of a battery is consumed, there exists a problem of the material which must be discarded collectively with the conductive material installed in the handle of a toothbrush, and a waste of resources.
  A toothbrush is defined as a physical cleaning tool that removes foreign substances adhering to the tooth surface. Therefore, cleanliness is important for toothbrushes. However, this conventional toothbrush has no gap between the side of the insertion port and the communication tube in the connection state of the conductor member and the insertion port of the toothbrushing portion and the communication tube, so that the food residue remaining in the oral cavity after brushing, etc. Because the foreign substance remained trapped, it was unsanitary. In addition, in order to remove this foreign substance, there is a problem that the toothbrushing portion must be separated from the insertion opening every time and cleaned.
  The above-mentioned patent publication 90-7539 (1990.10.15), which has been published as a method for solving the technical shortcomings, also comprises a toothbrush head part and a toothbrush handle as separate bodies. N-type semiconductor is implanted from the tip of the handle in the direction of the head of the toothbrush, and when water contacts in parallel under light irradiation, it is a technology that expects a dental hygiene effect as a result of the redox reaction by wet photocatalytic reaction. is there. Here, moisture refers to transparent water with excellent light transmission. More specifically, the electrolytic reaction of the N-type semiconductor can be expected under the condition where the light blocking element is excluded. However, considering the situation where N-type semiconductor toothbrushes are actually being brushed, it was formed with an opaque liquid mixed with water + toothpaste + saliva + food residue remaining in the oral cavity. As a result of coating the N-type semiconductor deeply and deeply in the water storage groove of the toothpaste portion formed by combining the N-type semiconductor with the gargling water, the light is blocked, so that the photocatalytic reaction of the N-type semiconductor cannot be expected. There was. Furthermore, it is very difficult to expect a photocatalytic reaction in a dark oral cavity where light is blocked by an N-type semiconductor in which a coating layer such as gargle water + toothpaste + saliva + residue in the oral cavity is formed. In another conventional technique, in another embodiment, an N-type semiconductor and a good conductor are in ohmic contact with each other in the vertical direction, and one end is connected to one electrode of a battery built in a handle of a toothbrush. In this embodiment, the pole is connected to a good conductor placed on the handle, and a human body having a high resistance from battery → good conductor → hand → body → tooth is used as an electric circuit. This leads to a result of reproducing the faults pointed out by him, and there is a problem of contradiction of his invention.
  In the case of following the above-described embodiment, after the electric power is consumed due to spontaneous discharge and long-term use, which are characteristics of the battery, the good conductor and the semiconductor installed in the toothbrush must be discarded. And the waste of resources will occur.
  Also, in other conventional techniques, the head and handle of the toothbrush are in a coupled state, the center of the N-type semiconductor is not formed, and the distance between the head portion and the side surface of the toothbrush is not formed. Water and foreign substances were caught and remained, and there was a problem of unsanitary. Moreover, in order to remove this foreign substance, there was a problem that the head part of the toothbrush had to be removed from the handle every time it was cleaned.
[0003]
[Technical Problem to be Solved by the Invention]
  The object of the present invention is to eliminate the problems of the same conventional technique as described above and other conventional techniques, promote more efficient polarization action, and promote reduction and oxidation reaction. Neutralization of plaque, bacteria that cause dental decay and alveolar pyorrhea, improve teeth and oral hygiene efficiently, light-emitting diodes (LEDs) that act on photovoltaic cells and insulators that are continuous in the hand It is intended to provide a photovoltaic ion toothbrush and a photovoltaic electric ion toothbrush provided with a light emitting body that can be installed at the tip of the battery to identify the voltage of photovoltaic power and check and check the health condition of the teeth.
[0004]
  In order to achieve the same object as described above, the feature of the photovoltaic ion toothbrush having the light emitter according to the present invention is that the thin band-shaped insulation in the direction of the toothpaste part integrally formed with the hand part in the injection molding process. A conductor is installed on the body to form a DC circuit, and the surface area of the conductor connected to the (−) electrode of the photovoltaic cell is made wider at the conductive part than the surface area of the conductor connected to the (+) electrode of the photovoltaic cell. The contact area with saliva is wide and the negative (-) electrode is hydrogen ion (H+As a result of promoting the adsorption rate of), a reduction and oxidation reaction due to an efficient polarization action is induced, and a maximum brushing effect can be pursued.
[0005]
[Means for solving problems]
  The difference between the above conventional technique and the present invention is that, in the conventional technique, the energy source for inducing the oxidation-reduction reaction is a general battery, whereas the present invention uses light which is an infinite resource of blessing. Of the conductive partConductor formation andIn the conventional technology, the (-) pole of the battery is connected to the conductor member, and the (+) pole of the battery uses a human body having a high resistance as an electric circuit, and whether or not the reaction and the effect due to the individual resistance difference are possible. However, in the present invention, a conductor connected to the (+) electrode of the photovoltaic cell is installed on one side of the conductor band, and a conductor connected to the (−) electrode of the photovoltaic cell is installed on the other side. Conductor that is installed to form a surface of the (−) electrode conductor more widely than the surface of the (+) electrode conductor in the conductive part constituting the electrical DC circuit, and receives a suitable voltage supply from the photovoltaic cell. The position and position inside and outside of the oral cavity are unquestionable, and hydrogen ions (H+As a result of efficient adsorption, the polarization action, oxidation and reduction reactions are accelerated, and a more effective toothbrushing effect can be expected.
  As a method of obtaining the appropriate voltage necessary for lighting the light emitter that can identify and select the current intensity by supplying the appropriate voltage to the conductor and producing the appropriate voltage suitable for the user When the user brushes his / her teeth, the surface area of the photovoltaic cell installed at one end of the hand part should be wide or concealed, and the area where the light will strike should be adjusted freely to receive a voltage supply suitable for the user. Can do. The photovoltaic cell of the embodiment according to the present invention is 10 mm long × 40 mm wide × 1.1 mm high, and is formed of 10 cells (cells). The voltage received here is 5 V, and the near-ultraviolet ray with an output of 18 W is received. This is a measured value obtained by irradiating a fluorescent lamp that radiates well from a distance of 1.5 m.
[0007]
  In the conventional technique, there is no gap between the insertion port and the side surface of the communication tube in the connection state with the insertion port as the center, and after the toothbrushing, dirty water remains and unsanitary points and every time. In contrast to the inconvenience of having to clean the toothpaste part, the present invention provides a diameter and toothpaste of a linear conductive part composed of an insulator and a conductor continuous in the direction from the handle to the toothpaste part. When the toothbrushing part is connected to the conductive part, the diameter between the conductive part and the inside of the toothpaste part is between the circles. The interval is formed to be 1 mm. And the communication hole of the toothpaste part is made up of a plurality of perforations of appropriate size in the diametrical direction to create a foreign substance flow path and a water liquid movement path so that no foreign substance remains in the gargle. Thus, it is a feature of the present invention that differs from the prior art in that an efficient reduction and oxidation reaction is exerted by the role of the movement path of the aqueous liquid.
[0008]
  The difference between the above and other conventional techniques is that the present invention uses an N-type semiconductor that undergoes a photocatalytic reaction as a method for demonstrating oxidation and reduction reactions. An N-type semiconductor is mixed with water + toothpaste + saliva + food and drink residue that can be used when brushing teeth, and opaque water forms a relatively thick layer with the depth and thickness of the water storage groove. In contrast to the fact that the photocatalytic reaction cannot be expected in the oral cavity without light in the state of coating and blocking light, the present invention is one side of the hand part as described in the above prior art. The surface area of the conductor forming the (−) electrode is larger than the surface area of the conductor forming the (+) electrode circuit that constitutes the electrical circuit with the photovoltaic cell and the conductive part. H+As a result, the reduction and oxidation reactions are efficiently performed regardless of the thickness of the coating layer of the gargle water coating the conductor.
[0009]
  And when forming one pole by battery-> good conductor-> N type semiconductor which is another example of the above-mentioned other conventional technology, after all the power of the battery is consumed, various conductive properties installed in the main body In response to the problem of material waste and resources that must be disposed of together with semiconductors, the present invention uses infinite blessings, uses light energy as a power source, considers the semi-permanence of photovoltaic cells, and combines toothpaste with an insulator. It is possible to contribute to the effective use of resources by forming the detachable part and the conductive part separately and configuring it as a detachable coupling separation type, and the other pole is resistance from battery → good conductor → hand → body → tooth In contrast to using a large human body as an electric circuit, the present invention forms an electric DC circuit in which a (+) electrode and a (−) electrode are formed in a conductive part, and an efficient reduction and oxidation reaction is expected. It is a point that can do things.
  In addition, in other conventional techniques, when the insertion portion and the main body where the N-type semiconductor is publicly connected are connected, a side surface interval between the insertion portion combined with the N-type semiconductor is formed. In contrast, the dirty gargling water is left to penetrate, and in contrast to the unsanitary point, the present invention forms an ionic portion having a 1 mm interval composed of a combination of a toothpaste portion and a conductive portion, and foreign substances remain. It is a point that teeth and oral hygiene are improved by the polarization action, reduction, and oxidation reaction due to the role as a movement path of the aqueous liquid.
[0010]
  Another object of the present invention is to install a light emitting diode (LED: Light Emitting Diode) that acts on the photovoltaic cell at the tip of an insulator that is formed integrally with the hand part and that constitutes the conductive part by coupling the toothpaste part. It is intended to provide a photovoltaic ion toothbrush with a light emitter that identifies the voltage of the photovoltaic power by the color of the emitted light and provides a suitable and suitable voltage for the user.The (−) pole of the light emitting diode (LED) is connected to a conductor forming a negative electrode at a conductive portion via a resistor of the substrate. The (+) electrode of the light-emitting diode (LED) is connected to a conductor forming a positive electrode, and a reduction oxidation reaction is exhibited in the conductive part. At the same time, the light-emitting diode (LED) emits light and is refreshed by adding an aesthetic element. In order to induce a sense of sensation, the curiosity of the children is induced to promote brushing of the teeth, and at the same time, it is easy to check and check the hygiene of the teeth with the light of the light emitting diode (LED) while looking through the mirror. In addition, oral hygiene can be efficiently improved and maintained.

  In the electrolytic reaction of liquid water, hydrogen ions (H+) By a reduction reaction of hydrogen ions (H) in proportion to the strength of the current.+) As a method for accelerating the formation, the surface area of the negative electrode that reacts with an aqueous solution is formed to be wider than the surface area of the positive electrode so that efficient reduction and oxidation reactions can be exhibited.

[Patent effect]

[0021]
  Disadvantages associated with the prior art examples are that the material is wasted due to the finite life of the battery, that a human body with a low voltage and high resistance is used as an electric circuit, and that a substantial theoretical decomposition of water is required. The use of a voltage that is less than 1.77 V, a point where foreign substances that are not expected to remain in the communication pipe remain in the gargle, and that the toothbrushing part must be separated and cleaned each time. At the same time as correcting in the examples, we are trying to improve more efficient teeth and oral hygiene. The first effect of the present invention over the prior art is that the method uses an electrolysis reaction, uses a photovoltaic cell, effectively uses natural resources, and at the same time reduces the voltage due to natural discharge and power consumption. There is no problem, the use of a semi-permanent lifetime photovoltaic cell that does not have the problem of wasteful resources that had to be discarded during use due to the finite nature of the power supply. The drawbacks of the prior art used as a part of the circuit can be solved, the human body resistance of each user can be overcome, and a good voltage can be supplied to the user. Then, the surface of the photovoltaic cell corresponding to the light irradiation rate can be widened by applying a voltage corresponding to the minimum theoretical decomposition voltage necessary for the electrolytic reaction of water or a voltage higher than that required for accelerating the electrolytic reaction. The necessary voltage can be continuously supplied regardless of the surrounding conditions by holding or concealing, and an efficient polarization action can be created, and at the same time, the disadvantages of the conventional technology are corrected.

The conventional drawback of using a human body with high resistance as a conductor is solved.

In addition, it is possible to feel the purity and freshness by demonstrating light while the saliva of gargle is mixed inside and outside the oral cavity. In addition, it can be expected to have a sales promotion effect because it emits colored light in the display state in the market and guides the line of sight.
[0024]
  As a fourth effect of the present invention with respect to the prior art, it relates to the water / liquid movement path formed in the conductive portion. In the prior art, the side surface spacing is smooth in the coupled state of the conductor member and the communication pipe. As a result, unintentional gargle water remained after brushing and unsanitary points. In the present invention, a water-liquid transfer passage was formed in the conductive part to facilitate the flow of gargle water, resulting in cleanliness. While at the same time eliminating the disadvantages of the prior art. As a result of efficient reduction and oxidation reaction in the conductive part by smooth circulation of the water liquid in the water-liquid movement passage, it is possible to expect an efficient tooth and oral hygiene condition.
[0025]
  From the drawbacks of other prior art embodiments, the use of an N-type semiconductor as a means of exerting an electrolysis reaction makes it possible for gargle water mixed with saliva to form a deep, thick film in the reservoir groove. A point where a light blocking layer is formed and a photocatalytic reaction cannot be expected, a theoretical theoretical decomposition voltage of water of 1.77 V is not generated in the above environment, an ohmic contact between an N-type semiconductor and a good conductor and battery connection In the case of the embodiment using a human body having a large resistance as a conductor, after the battery is consumed, the N-type semiconductor must be discarded together with the conductive material, and the insertion part is only a transparent synthetic resin. This is because the aesthetic factors are reduced because of the need to use, and undesired foreign substances remain in the reservoir and the insertion part, and it is necessary to clean each time with an unsanitary point. They are overcome by embodiments.
[0026]
  In the present invention, since the energy source necessary for the chemical reaction of the photovoltaic cell is obtained from the photovoltaic cell installed at one end of the hand part, and the negative electrode is wider in the conductive part, the direct current circuit is constructed, so the thickness of the coating layer of the gargle and the oral cavity Regardless of the brightness of the inside, depending on the brightness of the light, the surface area of the photovoltaic cell can be widened or concealed to obtain an appropriate voltage, and an efficient photovoltaic cell chemical reaction can be exhibited. . Another problem is that the aesthetic factors are limited because the other conventional technology had to use only a transparent synthetic resin for the insertion part, and it goes against fashionable toothbrushes in modern society. On the other hand, the present invention can provide a fashion toothbrush that has a configuration of a DC circuit using a photovoltaic cell and is not limited by the selection of the material for the toothpaste.
[0027]
  In addition, in another conventional technique, as a supplementary measure of the above-described embodiment, a general battery is built in the handle in another embodiment, and a good conductor and an N-type semiconductor are brought into ohmic contact, and then connected to the cathode of the battery. As an example to reproduce the shortcomings of the conventional technology that uses the human body as a conductor, after all the battery power has been consumed, the toothbrush body, a good conductor of various materials, and the semiconductor must be discarded in a lump. On the other hand, the present invention contributes to the effective use of resources, such as the fact that it can be used semipermanently by using a photovoltaic cell having a semipermanent lifetime.
  Compared to other conventional techniques, the second effect of the present invention is that the N-type semiconductor and the water storage groove are coupled to each other even in the other conventional techniques, and since no gap is formed, foreign substances in gargle water are not present. As a result, in contrast to the unsanitary point, the present invention can maintain a clean and foreign substance by forming a water-liquid movement passage, and can lead to an efficient reduction and oxidation reaction in the conductive part. That is the point.
