Abstract

A brush member is caused to properly face any location of a scalp. An electric brush device (1) includes an electric-brush-device main body (2) that is a drive section, and a brush member (3) operated by the electric-brush-device main body (2). The brush member (3) includes a body plate (4) formed of a flexible material, and a plurality of protrusions (5) protrudingly formed on a surface (4S) of the body plate (4). The electric-brush-device main body (2) is provided with a frame (6) that holds the peripheral edge of the body plate (4). The frame (6) is provided so as to be capable of wobbling with respect to the electric-brush-device main body (2) through the support means (7). Accordingly, even if the brush member (3) abuts a scalp (S) in a state not properly facing the scalp, the brush member (3) wobbles with respect to the electric-brush-device main body (2) depending on the abutting state of the protrusions (5), so that the brush member (3) is automatically caused to properly face the scalp (S).

Description

本発明は、電動式ブラシ装置に関するものであり、特に、頭皮の洗浄やマッサージ等に使用することができる電動式ブラシ装置に関するものである。   The present invention relates to an electric brush device, and more particularly to an electric brush device that can be used for scalp washing, massage, and the like.

従来、この種の電動式ブラシ装置として、駆動部と、この駆動部によって動作する施療部（本願発明のブラシ部に相当する）とを有し、前記駆動部に、前記施療部の基板の周縁を前記駆動部に対する位置関係が固定された状態で着脱自在に保持する枠体を設けると共に、前記基板の中心に接続して該基板の面と交差する方向にこの基板を撓ませる往復駆動手段を設け、前記施療部が、可撓性を有する材質から成る前記基板と、この基板に突出して設けられた複数の突起とで構成されるマッサージ装置が知られている。そして、このマッサージ装置では、使用者は、駆動部を把持し、突起の先端部を頭皮に押し当てて手で保持し、前記往復駆動手段によって前記施療部の基板を撓ませることで、この基板の撓みに伴って、この基板に設けられた複数の前記突起を繰り返し倒したり起こしたりさせることで相互に開閉させ、これらの相互に開閉する突起によって、揉んだり擦ったり叩いたりするように、頭皮を複雑にマッサージすることができるものである。これは、図７及び図８に示すように、駆動部１０１により駆動される施療部１０２における基板１０３が下に撓んだ湾曲凸状態と上に撓んだ湾曲凹状態との間で変形を繰り返す際、中心側から周辺側に配置された複数種類の突起１０４，１０５，１０６，１０７が、前記基板１０３の撓みに伴って動くことで、頭皮Ｓに押し当てられた前記突起１０４，１０５，１０６，１０７によって頭皮Ｓを指先で行うようにマッサージすることができるというものである（例えば特許文献１，２）。   Conventionally, this type of electric brush device has a drive unit and a treatment unit (corresponding to the brush unit of the present invention) operated by this drive unit, and the drive unit has a peripheral edge of the substrate of the treatment unit. And a reciprocating driving means for bending the substrate in a direction intersecting the surface of the substrate by connecting to the center of the substrate. There is known a massage apparatus in which the treatment portion is composed of the substrate made of a flexible material and a plurality of protrusions provided to protrude from the substrate. And in this massage device, the user holds the drive unit, presses the tip of the projection against the scalp and holds it by hand, and flexes the substrate of the treatment unit by the reciprocating drive means, As the plurality of protrusions provided on the substrate are repeatedly tilted and raised, the scalp is squeezed, rubbed and struck by the mutual opening and closing protrusions. Can be massaged complexly. As shown in FIG. 7 and FIG. 8, the treatment unit 102 driven by the drive unit 101 is deformed between a curved convex state where the substrate 103 is bent downward and a curved concave state where the substrate 103 is bent upward. When repeating, the plurality of types of protrusions 104, 105, 106, 107 arranged from the center side to the peripheral side move along with the bending of the substrate 103, so that the protrusions 104, 105, The scalp S can be massaged to be performed with the fingertips 106 and 107 (for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2).

また、このような電動式ブラシ装置において、駆動部の枠体に対して基板の縁を摺動自在に設けたものも知られている（例えば特許文献３）。   In addition, such an electric brush device is also known in which the edge of the substrate is slidably provided with respect to the frame of the drive unit (for example, Patent Document 3).

従来技術にあっては、使用者は、複数の突起１０４，１０５，１０６，１０７を頭皮Ｓに数多くほぼ均等に当てるためには、前記施療部１０２が頭皮Ｓに対して正対するように前記駆動部１０１を保持する必要がある。   In the prior art, in order to apply a plurality of protrusions 104, 105, 106, and 107 to the scalp S almost evenly, the user drives the treatment unit 102 so as to face the scalp S. The part 101 needs to be held.

しかしながら、頭皮は頭頂部では上向き、頭側部では横向きとなっており、このような頭皮に前記施療部が正対するように前記マッサージ装置本体を保持するには、頭皮の位置によって前記施療部の向きを変えるようにする必要があるが、手首をひねったり前記駆動部を持ち直したりしなければ、前記施療部を頭皮に正対させることができないという虞があった。また、人間の頭部は単純な形状ではないため、従来のマッサージ装置では、頭部の表面、即ち頭皮を良好にマッサージ或いは洗浄することができないという虞があった。   However, the scalp is facing upward at the top of the head and sideways at the side of the head, and in order to hold the massage device body so that the treatment part faces the scalp, the position of the treatment part depends on the position of the scalp. Although it is necessary to change the direction, there is a possibility that the treatment part cannot be directly opposed to the scalp unless the wrist is twisted or the drive part is re-pick up. Further, since the human head is not a simple shape, there is a concern that the conventional massage device cannot satisfactorily massage or clean the surface of the head, that is, the scalp.

本発明が解決しようとする課題は、駆動装置にブラシ部を接続して、このブラシ部の突起を頭皮に押し当てて頭皮を指先で行うように洗浄又はマッサージする電動式ブラシ装置において、頭部のいかなる箇所の頭皮に対しても、前記ブラシ部の突起を正対できるようにすることである。   The problem to be solved by the present invention is to connect a brush unit to a driving device, press the projection of the brush unit against the scalp, and wash or massage the scalp so that it is performed with a fingertip. It is intended to allow the protrusions of the brush part to be directly opposed to the scalp at any location.

請求項１の発明は、駆動部と、この駆動部によって動作するブラシ部とを有し、このブラシ部が、可撓性を有する材質から成る基板と、この基板の表面に突出して設けられた複数の突起とで構成され、前記駆動部に、前記基板の周縁を保持する枠体を設けた電動式ブラシ装置において、前記枠体が前記駆動部に対し支持手段を介して可動に設けられ、前記枠体が環状で且つ弾性変形可能に構成されていることを特徴とする電動式ブラシ装置である。 The invention of claim 1 has a drive part and a brush part operated by the drive part, and the brush part is provided so as to protrude from the surface of the substrate and a substrate made of a flexible material. In the electric brush device that includes a plurality of protrusions, and the driving unit is provided with a frame body that holds the periphery of the substrate, the frame body is movably provided to the driving unit via a support unit , The electric brush device is characterized in that the frame is annular and configured to be elastically deformable .

また、請求項２の発明は、前記支持手段が、軸及びこの軸と接続される軸受部とから構成されると共に、前記軸の揺動中心軸線が、前記基板の中心軸線に対して交差することを特徴とする請求項１記載の電動式ブラシ装置である。   According to a second aspect of the present invention, the support means is composed of a shaft and a bearing portion connected to the shaft, and the swing center axis of the shaft intersects the center axis of the substrate. The electric brush device according to claim 1.

請求項１の発明によれば、前記突起の当接状態に起因して、前記ブラシ部を支持する枠体が前記支持手段によって前記駆動部に対して動くので、前記ブラシ部が頭皮に正対する状態に自動修正できる。   According to the first aspect of the present invention, the brush member is opposed to the scalp because the frame that supports the brush portion moves relative to the drive portion by the support means due to the contact state of the protrusion. Can be automatically corrected to the state.

また、前記支持手段を、軸及びこの軸と接続される軸受部とで構成し、前記軸の揺動中心軸線を、前記基板の中心軸線に対して交差させたことで、前記軸を中心に、前記枠体に保持された前記ブラシ部を頭皮に対し自動的に正対させることができる。   Further, the support means is constituted by a shaft and a bearing portion connected to the shaft, and the swing center axis of the shaft intersects the center axis of the substrate, so that the shaft is the center. The brush part held by the frame can be automatically opposed to the scalp.

更に、前記枠体を弾性変形可能に構成したことで、頭皮の形状に合わせて前記枠体が弾性変形するので、前記ブラシ部の突起を頭皮に対して良好に接触させることができる。   Furthermore, since the frame body is configured to be elastically deformable, the frame body is elastically deformed according to the shape of the scalp, so that the protrusions of the brush portion can be satisfactorily brought into contact with the scalp.

Has been. The bottom surface portion 2 </ b> B has a bottom plate 9 and a cover body 11. The bottom plate 9 is formed in an elliptical shape in plan view, and its outer periphery is fixed to the bottom edge of the case main body 2A. The bottom plate 9 has a circular shape penetrating in the vertical direction in the center portion of the bottom plate 9. A window hole 10 is formed, and the cover body 11 that covers the window hole 10 and can be expanded and contracted is provided. The cover 11 is provided so as to seal the window hole 10 in a watertight manner by a bellows-like film made of a flexible material such as rubber, synthetic rubber, or elastomer. A reciprocating drive means 12 for reciprocating the central portion of the substrate 4 in the vertical direction is provided inside the electric brush device body 2. The reciprocating drive means 12 includes a motor 13 as a drive source, a crank 15 connected to a motor shaft 13A of the motor 13 via a reduction gear mechanism 14, and a yoke 16 coupled to an eccentric shaft 15A of the crank 15. The rod 16A formed integrally with the yoke 16 is provided. Thus, in the present embodiment, a so-called Scotch-yoke mechanism is employed, but a crank mechanism may be employed. Note that a connection relay member 17 is integrally attached to substantially the center of the cover body 11. The connection relay member 17 sandwiches and fixes the cover 11 between the upper surface side thereof and the lower end of the rod 16A, and a hook 17A is provided on the lower surface side thereof. A hook receiving portion 4B provided on the central upper surface is detachably connected. Therefore, the connection relay member 17 is reciprocated in the vertical direction by converting the rotational motion of the motor 13 into reciprocal motion between the crank 15 and the yoke 16. Thereby, the position where the hook receiving portion 4B is provided becomes the maximum amplitude portion in the substrate 4, and the amplitude is twice the eccentric distance F from the central axis of the crank 15 to the eccentric shaft 15A (2F). It becomes. A virtual center axis X is formed in the vertical direction through the hook receiving portion 4B and the connection relay member 17. In addition, a battery 18 for supplying electric power to the motor 13 is provided inside the electric brush device main body 2, and the motor 13 is provided on the upper surface of the electric brush device main body 2. A switch 19 is provided for operating.

更に、前記基板４には、前記枠体６とシート６Ｅとブラシ部３とで囲まれる領域の内外を連通する小貫通孔状の第一連通部２１及び第二連通部２２が設けられる。そして、前記領域には、前記連通部２１，２２に連通すると共に前記基板４の撓みに応動するシャンプーの収容体２６が設けられる。また、前記中心軸線Ｘを中心として、複数の小突起２７が環状に並べて設けられていると共に、これらの小突起２７同士を接続するように、環状壁２８が設けられている。また、前記基板４の表面４Ｓからの前記環状壁２８の突出寸法は、前記小突起２７の突出寸法より小さくなっている。なお、前記小突起２７と環状壁２８によって、前記基板４が内外に区画される。そして、前記第二連通部２２は、前記小突起２７と環状壁２８によって囲まれた区域に形成されている。一方、前記第一連通部２１は、前記小突起２７と環状壁２８の外側の区域に形成されている。   Furthermore, the substrate 4 is provided with a first through-hole communication portion 21 and a second communication portion 22 each having a small through hole communicating with the inside and outside of a region surrounded by the frame body 6, the sheet 6 </ b> E, and the brush portion 3. In the region, a shampoo container 26 that communicates with the communication portions 21 and 22 and responds to the bending of the substrate 4 is provided. A plurality of small protrusions 27 are provided in a ring shape around the central axis X, and an annular wall 28 is provided so as to connect the small protrusions 27 to each other. Further, the projecting dimension of the annular wall 28 from the surface 4S of the substrate 4 is smaller than the projecting dimension of the small protrusion 27. The substrate 4 is partitioned inward and outward by the small protrusions 27 and the annular wall 28. The second communication part 22 is formed in an area surrounded by the small protrusions 27 and the annular wall 28. On the other hand, the first continuous portion 21 is formed in a region outside the small protrusion 27 and the annular wall 28.

前記収容体２６は、前記基板４の撓みに応動して、圧縮及び復元を繰り返すことで、前記シャンプーを前記各連通部２１，２２から吸引したり吐出したりさせるようになっている。なお、前記収容体２６は、実施例では弾性体である連続気泡型の発泡ポリウレタンや発泡ゴム等から成る合成スポンジ或いは海綿（天然スポンジ）等によって形成されており、図２に示すように、前記基板４が下に撓んだ湾曲凸状態のときに、前記収容体２６はほぼ非圧縮状態或いはやや圧縮状態となって、前記枠体６とシート６Ｅと基板４の上面との間に介在している。即ち、前記基板４が下に撓んだ湾曲凸状態のときに、前記収容体２６の上面２６Ａは前記枠体６の下面６Ｂ及びシート６Ｅに接するか或いは近接し、前記収容体２６の下面２６Ｂは前記基板４の上面に接するか或いは近接し、更に前記収容体２６の外周２６Ｃは前記基板４の縁４Ａに接するか或いは近接している。一方、前記収容体２６の中心部には、前記中心軸線Ｘに沿って貫通孔２６Ｄが形成されている。そして、この貫通孔２６Ｄを通して、前記フック受け部４Ｂと前記フック１７Ａが接続できるように構成されている。   The container 26 is adapted to repeatedly compress and restore in response to the bending of the substrate 4, thereby sucking and discharging the shampoo from the communicating portions 21 and 22. The container 26 is formed of a synthetic sponge or sponge (natural sponge) made of open-cell foamed polyurethane, foamed rubber, or the like, which is an elastic body in the embodiment, and as shown in FIG. When the substrate 4 is in a curved convex state bent downward, the container 26 is almost uncompressed or slightly compressed, and is interposed between the frame 6, the sheet 6 </ b> E, and the upper surface of the substrate 4. ing. That is, when the substrate 4 is curved and bent downward, the upper surface 26A of the container 26 is in contact with or close to the lower surface 6B and the sheet 6E of the frame body 6, and the lower surface 26B of the container 26. Is in contact with or close to the upper surface of the substrate 4, and the outer periphery 26 </ b> C of the container 26 is in contact with or close to the edge 4 </ b> A of the substrate 4. On the other hand, a through-hole 26 </ b> D is formed in the central portion of the container 26 along the central axis X. The hook receiving portion 4B and the hook 17A can be connected through the through hole 26D.

次に、前記構成について、その作用を説明する。頭皮Ｓを洗浄したりマッサージしたりする場合、まず使用者は、予め前記収容体２６に適量の水を含ませておく。なお、水は前記電動式ブラシ装置１を水に浸けることで、前記各連通部２１，２２を介して前記収容体２６に吸収される。そして、前記基板４の表面４Ｓを上向きとし、前記小突起２７と環状壁２８に囲まれた区域に適量のシャンプーを乗せる。この際、前記小突起２７と環状壁２８で囲まれた区域に乗せられた前記シャンプーは、過剰に乗せない限り、前記小突起２７と環状壁２８の外側の区域に流れ出すことはない。そして、少量のシャンプーは、前記第二連通部２２から前記収容体２６側に染み込む。   Next, the effect | action is demonstrated about the said structure. When cleaning or massaging the scalp S, the user first puts an appropriate amount of water in the container 26 in advance. In addition, water is absorbed by the container 26 through the communication portions 21 and 22 by immersing the electric brush device 1 in water. Then, an appropriate amount of shampoo is placed on the area surrounded by the small protrusions 27 and the annular wall 28 with the surface 4S of the substrate 4 facing upward. At this time, the shampoo placed on the area surrounded by the small protrusion 27 and the annular wall 28 does not flow out to the area outside the small protrusion 27 and the annular wall 28 unless it is excessively placed. A small amount of shampoo penetrates from the second communicating portion 22 into the container 26 side.

次に、前記スイッチ１９を操作すると、前記電池１８から電力が給電されることで、前記モータ１３が作動して前記モータ軸１３Ａが回転する。この回転に伴い、前記モータ軸１３Ａに前記減速歯車機構１４を介して接続された前記クランク１５が回転し、このクランク１５及びこのクランク１５の偏心軸１５Ａと結合した前記ヨーク１６によって、前記モータ軸１３Ａの回転運動が往復運動に変換され、前記ヨーク１６と一体に形成されたロッド１６Ａの下端に取り付けられた前記接続中継部材１７が上下に往復動する。そして、前記基板４は、前記接続中継部材１７に設けられた前記フック１７Ａに接続された前記フック受け部４Ｂ、即ち、前記基板４の中央が最大振幅箇所となるように、従来技術と同様に下に撓んだ湾曲凸状態と上に撓んだ湾曲凹状態との間で変形を繰り返し、その前記最大振幅個所における振幅は、前記クランク１５の中心軸から偏心軸１５Ａまでの偏心距離Ｆの２倍（２Ｆ）となる。   Next, when the switch 19 is operated, electric power is supplied from the battery 18, whereby the motor 13 is operated and the motor shaft 13 </ b> A is rotated. Along with this rotation, the crank 15 connected to the motor shaft 13A via the reduction gear mechanism 14 rotates, and the motor shaft is coupled by the crank 15 and the yoke 16 coupled to the eccentric shaft 15A of the crank 15. The rotational movement of 13A is converted into a reciprocating movement, and the connection relay member 17 attached to the lower end of the rod 16A formed integrally with the yoke 16 reciprocates up and down. Then, the substrate 4 is the same as in the prior art so that the hook receiving portion 4B connected to the hook 17A provided on the connection relay member 17, that is, the center of the substrate 4 is the maximum amplitude portion. The deformation is repeated between a curved convex state bent downward and a curved concave state bent upward, and the amplitude at the maximum amplitude portion is an eccentric distance F from the central axis of the crank 15 to the eccentric shaft 15A. Double (2F).

このように、前記基板４が下に撓んだ湾曲凸状態と上に撓んだ湾曲凹状態との間で変形を繰り返すことで、前記基板４と枠体６の下面６Ｂとシート６Ｅの間の空間が圧縮、復元を繰り返すことになり、この結果、前記収容体２６は前記基板４の撓みに応動して圧縮、復元を繰り返す。そして、前記収容体２６が圧縮状態から復元する際に、前記基板４と枠体６の下面６Ｂとシート６Ｅの間の空間が減圧状態となることで、前記環状小突起２７と環状壁２８の内側区域に乗せられた前記シャンプーが前記第二連通部２２から吸引されて前記空間内に流入し、前記収容体２６に収容される。逆に、前記収容体２６が圧縮される際に、この収容体２６に収容された前記シャンプーは、前記第二連通部２２より噴出されることとなる。なお、前記シャンプーは、前記第二連通部２２を通して押し出される際に空気と混じり合うことで泡立つ。そして、このように前記収容体２６の変形が繰り返されることで、前記シャンプーが徐々に前記収容体２６の中央から外周側に広がってゆき、これによって、前記第一連通部２１からも、泡立てられた前記シャンプーが押し出されることになる。このように、湾曲凸状態と湾曲凹状態との間で繰り返される前記基板４の変形に応動して前記収容体２６が圧縮、復元を繰り返すことで、前記小突起２７及び環状壁２８の内側区域に乗せられた前記シャンプーは、泡立てられて、前記ブラシ部３全体から外部に供給される。なお、前記シャンプーは、前記連通部２１，２２を通過する際に細かく泡立てられることになる。そして、前記シャンプーは、前記連通部２１，２２の孔の径が小さい程、細かく泡立てられることになる。   In this way, the substrate 4 is repeatedly deformed between the curved convex state where the substrate 4 is bent downward and the curved concave state where the substrate 4 is bent upward. The space 26 is repeatedly compressed and restored. As a result, the container 26 is repeatedly compressed and restored in response to the bending of the substrate 4. When the container 26 is restored from the compressed state, the space between the substrate 4, the lower surface 6 </ b> B of the frame 6 and the sheet 6 </ b> E is in a reduced pressure state, so that the annular small protrusion 27 and the annular wall 28 are The shampoo placed on the inner area is sucked from the second communication portion 22 and flows into the space, and is accommodated in the accommodating body 26. Conversely, when the container 26 is compressed, the shampoo accommodated in the container 26 is ejected from the second communication portion 22. The shampoo is foamed by being mixed with air when pushed out through the second communication portion 22. Then, the deformation of the container 26 is repeated in this manner, so that the shampoo gradually spreads from the center of the container 26 to the outer peripheral side. The applied shampoo will be pushed out. In this way, the container 26 repeatedly compresses and restores in response to the deformation of the substrate 4 repeated between the curved convex state and the curved concave state, so that the inner area of the small protrusion 27 and the annular wall 28 is obtained. The shampoo placed on is bubbled and supplied to the outside from the entire brush unit 3. The shampoo is finely bubbled when passing through the communication parts 21 and 22. And the said shampoo will be bubbled finely, so that the diameter of the hole of the said communication parts 21 and 22 is small.

このように、前記シャンプーが泡立てられた状態で、使用者は、前記電動式ブラシ装置本体２を把持し、前記突起５の先端部を前記頭皮Ｓに押し当てて手で保持する。これにより、主として前記突起５は、前記中心軸線Ｘを中心としてその内側方向に傾斜したり、或いはその後起立したりすることを繰り返すことで、前記頭皮Ｓを擦って洗浄したり、刺激を与えてマッサージしたりすることができる。   Thus, in a state where the shampoo is foamed, the user holds the electric brush device main body 2 and presses the tip of the protrusion 5 against the scalp S and holds it by hand. As a result, the protrusion 5 mainly rubs the scalp S by being inclined inwardly with respect to the central axis X, or is erected afterwards, and gives a stimulus. You can massage.

この際、頭皮Ｓに前記ブラシ部３を正対させることにより複数の前記突起５を頭皮Ｓに均等に当接させる必要があるが、使用者はこの状態を正確に視認できないので、前記電動式ブラシ装置本体２を把持した状態では、前記ブラシ部３は頭皮Ｓに対して大まかに対向する状態となる。しかしながら、前記ブラシ部３が頭皮Ｓに正対していない（前記中心軸線Ｘが頭皮Ｓに対して傾斜している）状態にあっては、図２の矢印Ｚに示すように、前記ブラシ部３が前記電動式ブラシ装置本体２に対して前記軸８の揺動中心軸線Ｙを中心に揺動することで、前記ブラシ部３が自動的に頭皮Ｓに正対した状態で当接できるようになるので、複数の前記突起５によって、頭皮Ｓを均一に洗浄したりマッサージしたりすることができる。   At this time, it is necessary to bring the plurality of protrusions 5 into equal contact with the scalp S by making the brush portion 3 directly face the scalp S. However, since the user cannot accurately recognize this state, In a state where the brush device main body 2 is gripped, the brush portion 3 is roughly opposed to the scalp S. However, in a state where the brush portion 3 does not face the scalp S (the central axis X is inclined with respect to the scalp S), as shown by an arrow Z in FIG. Oscillates around the oscillation center axis Y of the shaft 8 with respect to the electric brush device main body 2 so that the brush portion 3 can automatically come into contact with the scalp S in a state of facing the scalp S. Therefore, the scalp S can be uniformly washed or massaged by the plurality of protrusions 5.

なお、人間の頭部は、実際には単純な形状ではないので、前記ブラシ部３が頭部表面、即ち頭皮Ｓに正対しただけでは、必ずしも突起５によって頭皮Ｓが良好に洗浄されたりマッサージされたりするとは限らない。しかしながら、前述したように、前記枠体６が弾性変形可能に構成されているので、前記ブラシ部３を頭皮Ｓに押しつけることで、頭皮Ｓの形状に応じて前記ブラシ部３の基部４が撓み、この基部４の撓みに応じて、前記ブラシ部３を固定している前記枠体６も撓むことになる。なお、前記枠体６は、その両端が湾曲するように変形したり（図４（ｂ））、捻れるように変形したり（図４（ｃ））することができる。このように、前記ブラシ部３の基部４を頭皮Ｓの形状に応じて変形させることができるので、前記突起５によって、頭皮Ｓをより良好に洗浄したりマッサージしたりすることができる。   Since the human head is not actually a simple shape, the scalp S is not necessarily cleaned well or massaged by the protrusions 5 when the brush part 3 is just facing the head surface, that is, the scalp S. It is not always done. However, since the frame 6 is configured to be elastically deformable as described above, the base portion 4 of the brush portion 3 bends according to the shape of the scalp S by pressing the brush portion 3 against the scalp S. In response to the bending of the base portion 4, the frame body 6 fixing the brush portion 3 is also bent. The frame body 6 can be deformed so that both ends thereof are curved (FIG. 4B) or deformed so as to be twisted (FIG. 4C). Thus, since the base part 4 of the brush part 3 can be deformed according to the shape of the scalp S, the scalp S can be cleaned and massaged better by the protrusions 5.

以上のように、前記実施例では、電動式ブラシ装置本体２と、この電動式ブラシ装置本体２によって動作するブラシ部３とを有し、このブラシ部３が、可撓性を有する材質から成る基板４と、この基板４の表面４Ｓに突出して設けられた複数の突起５とで構成され、前記電動式ブラシ装置本体２に、前記基板４の周縁を着脱自在に保持する枠体６を設け、前記枠体６を、前記電動式ブラシ装置本体２に対し支持手段７を介して揺動可能に設けたことにより、前記ブラシ部３が頭皮Ｓに正対していない状態で突起５が当接したとしても、前記突起５の当接状態に応じて前記ブラシ部３が前記電動式ブラシ装置本体２に対して揺動するので、前記ブラシ部３が頭皮Ｓに正対するように自動修正でき、前記ブラシ部３の複数の突起５を頭皮Ｓに均一に当接させて、頭皮Ｓを良好に洗浄或いはマッサージすることができる。   As mentioned above, in the said Example, it has the electric brush apparatus main body 2 and the brush part 3 which operate | moves by this electric brush apparatus main body 2, and this brush part 3 consists of a material which has flexibility. A substrate 4 and a plurality of projections 5 provided so as to protrude from the surface 4S of the substrate 4 are provided, and a frame body 6 is provided on the electric brush device body 2 for detachably holding the periphery of the substrate 4. By providing the frame body 6 so as to be swingable with respect to the electric brush device main body 2 via the support means 7, the protrusion 5 comes into contact with the brush portion 3 not facing the scalp S. Even so, since the brush portion 3 swings with respect to the electric brush device main body 2 according to the contact state of the protrusion 5, it can be automatically corrected so that the brush portion 3 faces the scalp S, Uniformity of the plurality of protrusions 5 of the brush part 3 on the scalp By abutment, it can be favorably cleaned or massaging the scalp S.

また、前記枠体６が、軸８及び軸受部８Ａから構成される前記支持手段７によって接続されると共に、前記軸８の揺動中心軸線Ｙを、前記基板４の中心軸線Ｘに対して直交させることで、前記軸８を揺動中心軸線Ｙとして、前記枠体６に保持された前記ブラシ部３を頭皮Ｓに対し自動的に正対させることができる。   Further, the frame body 6 is connected by the support means 7 including the shaft 8 and the bearing portion 8A, and the swing center axis Y of the shaft 8 is orthogonal to the center axis X of the substrate 4. By doing so, the brush portion 3 held by the frame body 6 can be automatically faced to the scalp S with the shaft 8 as the oscillation center axis Y.

更に、前記枠体６が枠状で且つ弾性変形可能に構成されていることで、頭皮Ｓの形状に応じて前記枠体６、ひいては前記枠体６に取り付けられた前記ブラシ部３が弾性変形するので、前記ブラシ部３の突起５を頭皮Ｓに対して良好に接触させることができる。 Further, since the frame body 6 has a frame shape and is configured to be elastically deformable, the brush body 3 attached to the frame body 6 and eventually the brush body 6 according to the shape of the scalp S is elastically deformed. Therefore, the protrusion 5 of the brush part 3 can be brought into good contact with the scalp S.

図６は実施例２を示しており、前記実施例１と同一部分には同一符号を付して、その詳細な説明を省略する。実施例２の支持手段７´においては、電動式ブラシ装置本体２の底面部２Ｂから、一対の支柱状の吊下部材７´Ａをそれぞれ下向きに設け、この吊下部材７´Ａの下部に、軸８´を介して枠体６の上面に形成された軸受部６´Ｆを回動自在に接続したものであり、前記軸８´の揺動中心軸線（図示せず）は中心軸線（図示せず）に対して直交している。   FIG. 6 shows a second embodiment. The same parts as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof is omitted. In the support means 7 'of the second embodiment, a pair of support-like suspension members 7'A are provided downward from the bottom surface portion 2B of the electric brush device body 2, and the suspension members 7'A are provided below the suspension members 7'A. , A bearing portion 6'F formed on the upper surface of the frame body 6 via a shaft 8 'is rotatably connected, and a swing center axis (not shown) of the shaft 8' is a center axis ( (Not shown).

従って、前記突起５の当接状態に応じて前記ブラシ部３が前記電動式ブラシ装置本体２に対して軸８´を揺動中心として揺動するので、前記ブラシ部３が頭皮Ｓに正対するように自動修正できる。   Accordingly, the brush portion 3 swings with respect to the electric brush device main body 2 about the shaft 8 'as a swing center in accordance with the contact state of the protrusion 5, so that the brush portion 3 faces the scalp S. Can be corrected automatically.

以上のように本発明に係る電動式ブラシ装置は、以上の実施例に限定されるものではなく、発明の要旨の範囲内で種々の変形実施が可能である。例えば、上記実施例では、頭皮等の洗浄及びマッサージに使用可能な電動式ブラシ装置について述べたが、人体のあらゆる箇所に対して使用可能なマッサージ装置に適用しても良い。   As described above, the electric brush device according to the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various modifications can be made within the scope of the gist of the invention. For example, in the above-described embodiment, the electric brush device that can be used for cleaning and massaging the scalp and the like has been described. However, the present invention may be applied to a massaging device that can be used for any part of the human body.
