The curved surface shape of the tip 45a of the conical protrusion 45 for scraping sebum and the curved surface shape of the tip 42a of each tip projection 42 of the spatula projection 41 are formed to have the same small diameter (for example, a radius of 0.6 mm). In addition, the curved surface shape of the tip 46a of the cone-shaped projection 46 for massage is formed to have a larger diameter (for example, a radius of 1.2 mm) than the curved surface shape of the tip 45a of the cone-shaped projection 45 for scraping sebum. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 4, the tip 42a of each tip projection 42 of the spatula-like projection 41, the tip 45a of the cone-like projection 45 for scraping sebum, and the tip 46a of the cone-like projection 46 for massage are spatula shaped. The protrusions 41 are arranged on substantially the same line along the long axis direction X of the middle part 41a having an elliptical cross section.

  The base 41b of the spatula-shaped protrusion 41, the root 45b of the cone-shaped protrusion 45 for scraping the sebum, and the root 46b of the cone-shaped protrusion 46 for massage are formed to have the same diameter. Further, in the present embodiment, the bottom board 40 and the protrusions 41, 45, 46 are resin molded products integrally formed of elastomer resin. The elastomer resin is a general term for rubber-like elastic resins, and examples thereof include olefin elastomers, styrene elastomers, polyester elastomers, urethane elastomers, and acrylic elastomers. In this embodiment, a styrene type elastomer is used. The styrene-type elastomer has good transparency, and when the scalp washing brush 10 is commercialized, the styrenic elastomer has a good appearance, and can also have good cleaning performance and massage performance for the scalp. In order to determine the shape, dimensions, etc. of each of the protrusions 41, 45, 46, a scalp cleaning brush 10 was prototyped using an RP (Rapid Prototyping) device using three-dimensional CAD data, and the cleaning effect and The massage effect can be evaluated. The RP apparatus is an apparatus that uses stereolithography technology, and if a molding die is not required and three-dimensional CAD data is available, a prototype can be produced in a short period of time. In such a case, for example, an acrylic elastomer for an RP device can be used. The elastomer contains a rubber-like resin and can be sufficiently used for performance evaluation of a prototype of the scalp washing brush 10 of the present invention.

  According to the scalp washing brush 10 of the embodiment described above, the root portion 41b of the spatula-shaped protrusion 41 is formed in a circular cross section, and the cross section is circular from the root portion 41b side to the midway portion 41a side (tip surface 41c side). A pair of tip protrusions 42, 42 having a tip 42a chamfered in a curved shape are formed in a cone shape on the tip surface 41c of the middle portion 41a of the cross section ellipse. Accordingly, since the spatula-like projection 41 is bent and deformed from the base portion 41b and is difficult to bend, even if the hair gets in the way at the time of cleaning, the pair of tip projections 42, 42 of the spatula-like projection 41 is formed on the scalp skin and pores. It is possible to surely remove the sebum discharged from the pores at each of the tips 42a by the bending deformation of the pair of tip projections 42, 42, and to clean the pores and the background.

  Further, a plurality of spatula protrusions 41 project in parallel from the center of the brush surface 30a of the base 11 to both sides (outer circumferential direction side) with a predetermined interval in parallel, and a spatula shape located inside each row. The position of each tip 42a is arranged on an arc line so that the height of the pair of tip projections 42, 42 of the spatula-like projection 41 positioned outside the height of the pair of tip projections 42, 42 of the projection 41 is higher. As a result, the tips 42a of the pair of tip projections 42, 42 of all the spatula projections 41 are pressed reliably and easily along the curved surface of the scalp to efficiently remove sebum and clean pores. be able to.

  In addition, a plurality of cone-shaped projections 45 for scavenging sebum and a plurality of cone-shaped projections 46 for massage are arranged alternately between the spatula-shaped projections 41, 41 in each row, so that the removal of sebum and the cleaning of pores are efficient. It can be performed well and scalp massage can be performed efficiently.

  Furthermore, the base 11 is composed of a synthetic resin base body 20 having a handle portion 22 and a synthetic resin substrate 30 mounted in a mounting opening 25 formed on the bottom surface side of the base body 20. Each of the protrusions 41, 45, 46 is integrally formed on the bottom plate 40 made of an elastomer resin so that the bottom plate 40 is sandwiched between the base body 20 and the substrate 30, and a plurality of formed on the substrate 30 is formed. The base portions 41b, 45b, 46b of the projections 41, 45, 46 are inserted into the insertion holes 31, 35, 36, and the projections 41, 45, 46 are projected outward from the lower surface 30a of the substrate 30. Thus, the number of parts constituting the scalp washing brush 10 can be reduced as much as possible, so that the overall structure can be simplified, the cost can be reduced, and the mounting opening 25 can be reduced. moisture It is possible to prevent the intrusion of dust or the like can be clean using scalp washing brush 10 of the present invention.

  Further, the upper surface 20a of the base body 20 is formed in a curved convex surface, and the handle portion 22 is formed in the shape of left and right ears of the animal from one end side to the center portion of the upper surface 20a, and protrudes integrally through the plate-like support portion 21. In addition, a tail portion 23 having an animal tail shape is integrally formed on the other end of the upper surface 20a of the base body 20, and a flat portion is formed on the rear end portion and the tail portion 23 of the ear-shaped handle portion 22. By forming 22a and 23a, respectively, the aesthetic appearance of the base body 20 can be enhanced. In addition, since the flat portions 22a and 23a can function as a support portion, it is possible to place the base 11 on its own with the projections 41, 45, and 46 facing upward and place them on the mounting table D or the like. (See FIG. 10 (b)). Thus, by providing the flat portions (support portions) 22a, 23a on the upper surface 20a side of the base body 20, the brush surface 30a can be stored and the protrusions 41, 45, 46 can be stored. The deformation and damage of the tips 42a, 45a, 46a can be prevented.
