Description

本発明はブラシ及びブラシの製造方法に関し、例えば、平線を用いない無平線タイプのブラシ及びブラシの製造方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a brush and a method of manufacturing the brush, and, for example, relates to a brush and a method of manufacturing a brush without a flat line.

ブラシとしては、ヘアブラシ、ボディブラシ、メイクブラシ、靴ブラシ、洋服ブラシ等、種々のブラシがある。
例えば、歯ブラシとしては、図１３に示す特許文献１に示された歯ブラシが提案されている。以下に、特許文献１に示された歯ブラシについて説明する。 The brushes include various brushes such as hair brushes, body brushes, makeup brushes, shoe brushes, clothes brushes and the like.
For example, as a toothbrush, the toothbrush shown by patent document 1 shown in FIG. 13 is proposed. Below, the toothbrush shown by patent document 1 is demonstrated.

図１３に示す歯ブラシ１１は、毛束１２を二つ折りにして、その折り曲げ部を歯ブラシのヘッド部１５の表面に凹設した植毛穴１３に挿入し、毛束１２の折り曲げ部の内側に平線１４をわたし、平線１４の両端部を歯ブラシのヘッド部１５表面に固定している。この毛束１２は、前記平線１４によってヘッド部１５に固定される。
この平線１４を用いる歯ブラシ１１にあっては、ヘッド部１５は平線１４の圧入に耐えるような肉厚が必要となり、ヘッド部１５が大きくなるという問題があった。また、ヘッド部１５は樹脂で形成され、平線１４は金属で形成されるため、ヘッド部１５と平線１４を分離し、分別廃棄するのが難しいという問題があった。 The toothbrush 11 shown in FIG. 13 folds the hair bundle 12 in two and inserts the bent portion into the flocked hole 13 recessed on the surface of the head portion 15 of the toothbrush, and a flat line inside the bent portion of the hair bundle 12 14, both ends of the flat wire 14 are fixed to the surface of the head portion 15 of the toothbrush. The hair bundle 12 is fixed to the head portion 15 by the flat wire 14.
In the toothbrush 11 using the flat wire 14, the head portion 15 needs to be thick enough to withstand the press-fit of the flat wire 14, and there is a problem that the head portion 15 becomes large. Moreover, since the head part 15 is formed with resin and the flat wire 14 is formed with metal, there existed a problem that it was difficult to isolate | separate the head part 15 and the flat wire 14, and to discard separately.

そこで、前記平線１４を用いた歯ブラシ１１の問題を解決するものとして、例えば、特許文献２に示すような平線を用いない無平線タイプの歯ブラシが提案されている。
平線を用いない無平線タイプの歯ブラシについて、図１４に基づいて説明する。
この無平線タイプの歯ブラシ２０は、ヘッド部２１に植毛穴２２が形成されると共に、ヘッド部２１の背面に凹部２３が形成され、前記植毛穴２２は前記凹部２３内に開口している。そして、前記植毛穴２２に毛束２４を挿入し、前記凹部内２３に樹脂２５を充填することにより、前記毛束２４をヘッド部２１に固定している。 Then, as a thing which solves the problem of the toothbrush 11 which used the said flat wire 14, the toothbrush of the non flat wire type which does not use a flat line as shown to patent document 2 is proposed, for example.
A flat wire type toothbrush that does not use a flat wire will be described based on FIG.
In this flat-wire type toothbrush 20, a flocked hole 22 is formed in the head portion 21, a recess 23 is formed in the back of the head portion 21, and the flocked hole 22 is opened in the recess 23. Then, the hair bundle 24 is inserted into the flocking hole 22, and the recess 25 is filled with the resin 25 to fix the hair bundle 24 to the head portion 21.

更に、この無平線タイプの歯ブラシ２０の製造方法について、図１５に基づいて説明する。まず、ヘッド部２１に植毛穴２２と凹部２３が形成された歯ブラシ本体（ヘッド部２１）を成形する。
そして、図１５（ａ）に示すように、毛束保持治具３０にヘッド部２１を据付ける。この毛束保持治具３０は、ヘッド部２１の据付部３１と、据付部３１に据付けられるヘッド部２１の植毛穴２２に連なる毛束整形孔３２を備えている。 Further, a method of manufacturing the flat wire type toothbrush 20 will be described based on FIG. First, a toothbrush main body (head portion 21) in which the flocked holes 22 and the recess 23 are formed in the head portion 21 is formed.
And as shown to Fig.15 (a), the head part 21 is installed in the hair bundle holding jig 30. As shown in FIG. The hair bundle holding jig 30 includes a mounting portion 31 of the head portion 21 and a hair bundle shaping hole 32 connected to the flocking hole 22 of the head portion 21 installed in the mounting portion 31.

次に、毛束植設装置（図示せず）により、毛束保持治具３０に据付けられているヘッド部２１の植毛穴２２から毛束保持治具３０の毛束整形孔３２に、毛束２４を植設し、毛束２４の先端部を毛束整形孔３２の孔底面に押し当て整形する。   Next, a hair bundle is implanted in the hair bundle shaping jig 32 of the hair bundle holding jig 30 from the flocking hole 22 of the head portion 21 installed in the hair bundle holding jig 30 by a hair bundle implantation device (not shown). 24 is implanted, and the tip of the hair bundle 24 is pressed against the bottom of the hair bundle shaping hole 32 for shaping.

更に、毛束端面溶融装置４０により、図１５（ｂ）に示すように、ヘッド部２１の凹部２３内に出ている毛束２４の端面を溶融し、塊状部２４ａを形成する。
続いて、図１５（ｃ）に示すように、前記ヘッド部２１を有する歯ブラシと毛束保持治具３０を、搬送装置（図示せず）によって、成形装置５０に搬送し、位置決めする。
その後、図１５（ｄ）に示すように、成形装置５０の成形金型５１の注入口５２（ゲート）から導入される背面充填材（樹脂成形材）６０を、前記凹部２３内に注入して、ヘッド部２１に毛束２４を固定する。
前記充填材６０の固化後、成形金型５１を開いて歯ブラシ２０及び毛束保持治具３０を取出し、歯ブラシ２０を毛束保持治具３０から外すことにより、図１５（ｅ）に示すような、歯ブラシ２０が完成する。 Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 15 (b), the end face of the hair bundle 24 exposed in the recess 23 of the head portion 21 is melted by the hair bundle end surface melting device 40 to form a massive portion 24 a.
Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 15C, the toothbrush having the head portion 21 and the hair bundle holding jig 30 are transported to the molding device 50 by the transport device (not shown) and positioned.
Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 15 (d), a back filler (resin molding material) 60 introduced from the injection port 52 (gate) of the molding die 51 of the molding apparatus 50 is injected into the recess 23. The hair bundle 24 is fixed to the head portion 21.
After the filling material 60 is solidified, the molding die 51 is opened, the toothbrush 20 and the hair bundle holding jig 30 are taken out, and the toothbrush 20 is removed from the hair bundle holding jig 30, as shown in FIG. , The toothbrush 20 is completed.

ところで、前記した無平線タイプの歯ブラシ２０は、予め形成されたヘッド部２１の植毛穴２２に、毛束２４を挿入し、前記凹部内２３に樹脂２５を充填することにより、前記毛束２４をヘッド部２１に固定したものであるが、その他に、歯ブラシのヘッド部と柄部（以下、ヘッド部と柄部を含めて歯ブラシ本体という）を形成する際に、毛束のヘッド部への固定を同時に行う、無平線タイプの歯ブラシも知られている。
この歯ブラシ本体の形成と毛束のヘッド部の固定を同時に行う、無平線タイプの歯ブラシについて、図１６に基づいて説明する。尚、図１４、図１５に示した部材と同一あるいは相当する部材は、同一符号を付して、その詳細な説明は省略する。 By the way, the above-mentioned non flat wire type toothbrush 20 inserts the hair bundle 24 in the flocked hole 22 of the head part 21 formed beforehand, and fills the resin 25 in the said recessed part 23, thereby the said hair bundle 24 Are fixed to the head portion 21. In addition, when forming the head portion and the handle portion of the toothbrush (hereinafter referred to as the toothbrush main body including the head portion and the handle portion), the hair bundle to the head portion There is also known a flat wire type toothbrush that performs fixation simultaneously.
A flat wire type toothbrush which simultaneously performs the formation of the toothbrush main body and the fixation of the head portion of the hair bundle will be described based on FIG.

ところで、図１４、図１５に示した従来の無平線タイプの歯ブラシにあっては、成形装置によって背面充填材（樹脂成形材）が、前記ヘッド部に形成された一つの凹部内に所定の注入圧で充填される。この注入圧は、一つの凹部全体に背面充填材を行き渡らせるために、高い注入圧で行われる。
そのため、この従来の無平線タイプの歯ブラシでは、凹部内に充填された樹脂が毛束の毛の間を通ってヘッドの表面に滲み出る虞もあり、また毛束を構成する毛の下端部同士が前記樹脂によって接着され、また毛束を構成する毛の下端部が植毛穴に接着され、毛束の所定のしなやかさが失われるという技術的課題があった。 By the way, in the conventional flat wire type toothbrush shown in FIG. 14 and FIG. 15, the back filler (resin molding material) is formed in the one recess formed in the head portion by the molding device. Filled with injection pressure. This injection pressure is performed at a high injection pressure in order to distribute the back filler throughout the entire recess.
Therefore, in this conventional flat wire type toothbrush, there is a possibility that the resin filled in the recess may leak to the surface of the head through between the hairs of the hair bundle, and the lower end of the hair constituting the hair bundle There has been a technical problem that the resin is adhered to each other by the resin, and the lower end portion of the hair constituting the hair bundle is adhered to the flocking hole, and a predetermined softness of the hair bundle is lost.

また、ヘッド部に形成された凹部側壁には前記注入圧が作用するため、肉厚な縁部Ｆ（ヘッド部２１の側面と凹部２３の内面との間の厚さ、図１４参照）を形成する必要があり、植毛穴を歯ブラシ本体（ヘッド部）の外縁部近傍に形成することができかった。即ち、歯ブラシ本体（ヘッド部）全体に毛束を形成できず、良好な使用感が得られないという技術的課題があった。   Further, since the injection pressure acts on the side wall of the recess formed in the head portion, a thick edge portion F (a thickness between the side surface of the head portion 21 and the inner surface of the recess 23, see FIG. 14) is formed. It is necessary to be able to form a flocked hole in the vicinity of the outer edge of the toothbrush body (head portion). That is, there is a technical subject that a hair bundle can not be formed in the whole toothbrush main part (head part), and a good usability can not be obtained.

また、図１６に示した従来の無平線タイプの歯ブラシにあっては、歯ブラシ本体部（ヘッド部と柄部）の成形と、毛束のヘッド部の固定が同時に行われる。
この無平線タイプの歯ブラシにおいては、図１７に示すように、植毛穴２２自体の形状が毛束２４に倣った形状になり、植毛穴２２と毛束２４との間の隙間が失われるという技術的課題があった。また、毛束２４を構成する毛の下端部２４Ａ同士が歯ブラシ本体部の形成する樹脂によって接着され、また毛束２４を構成する毛の下端部２４Ａが前記樹脂によって植毛穴２２に接着され、毛束の所定のしなやかさが失われるという技術的課題があった。 Moreover, in the conventional flat wire type toothbrush shown in FIG. 16, the molding of the toothbrush main body (the head and the handle) and the fixing of the head of the hair bundle are simultaneously performed.
In this flat wire type toothbrush, as shown in FIG. 17, the shape of the flocked holes 22 themselves conforms to the hair bundles 24 and the gap between the flocked holes 22 and the hair bundles 24 is lost. There were technical issues. Further, lower ends 24A of the bristles constituting the hair bundle 24 are adhered by a resin formed by the toothbrush main body, and the lower ends 24A of the bristles constituting the hair bundle 24 are adhered to the flocking hole 22 by the resin. There has been a technical problem that the predetermined flexibility of the bundle is lost.

上記したように、いずれの無平線タイプの歯ブラシも、毛束を構成する毛の下端部同士が樹脂によって接着され、また毛束を構成する毛の下端部が植毛穴に接着され、更には、植毛穴と毛束の間の隙間が失われる場合がある。
その結果、従来の無平線タイプの歯ブラシにあっては、毛束の所定のしなやかさが失われ、また毛間の水抜けが悪く、歯ブラシの使用感が劣るという技術的課題を有するものであった。 As described above, in any flat wire type toothbrush, the lower ends of the hairs constituting the hair bundle are adhered with resin, and the lower ends of the hairs constituting the hair bundle are adhered to the flocking hole, and further The gap between the flocking hole and the hair bundle may be lost.
As a result, in the conventional flat wire type toothbrush, it has a technical subject that the predetermined pliability of the hair bundle is lost, the water leakage between the hairs is poor, and the use feeling of the toothbrush is inferior. there were.

本発明者は、上記技術的課題を解決するためになされたものであり、水抜けが良く、また毛束の所定のしなやかさを維持できる使用感の良いブラシ及びブラシの製造方法を提供することを目的とする。   The present inventor has made the present invention to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, and to provide a brush and a method of manufacturing a brush with a good feeling of use that is good in water leakage and can maintain predetermined flexibility of a hair bundle. With the goal.

上記目的を達成するためになされた本発明にかかるブラシは、平線を用いることなく、毛束を合成樹脂製のヘッド部に植設したブラシにおいて、前記ヘッド部の表面と背面を貫通した複数の植設穴と、複数の合成樹脂製繊維からなり、前記複数の植設穴の夫々に挿通される複数の毛束と、前記複数の植設穴に挿通した夫々の毛束のヘッド部背面側の一端部に形成された、前記毛束が溶融固化した状態の塊状部と、前記毛束の塊状部が係止される係止部と、前記複数の植設穴の夫々に設けられた、前記係止部に係止された毛束の塊状部の背面側を覆い、かつ前記植設穴を閉塞する、樹脂を溶融固化した状態の複数の毛束固定部と、を備え、前記一つの毛束が一つの毛束固定部によって、前記ヘッド部に固定されていることを特徴としている。   The brush according to the present invention made to achieve the above object is a brush in which a hair bundle is implanted in a synthetic resin head without using a flat wire, and a plurality of brushes penetrating the surface and the back of the head. A plurality of hair bundles made of a plurality of planting holes and a plurality of synthetic resin fibers, each of which is inserted into each of the plurality of planting holes, and a head portion of a back of each hair bundle which is inserted into the plurality of planted holes. Provided at one end on the side, the lumped part in a state in which the hair bundle is solidified by melting, the locking part to which the lumped part of the hair bundle is locked, and the plurality of planting holes A plurality of hair bundle fixing portions covering the back side of the massive portion of the hair bundle locked to the locking portion and closing the implantation hole, the plurality of hair bundle fixing portions in a state where the resin is solidified by melting; It is characterized in that two hair bundles are fixed to the head part by one hair bundle fixing part.

このように、本発明にかかるブラシにあっては、複数の植設穴の夫々に設けられた、毛束固定部によって、毛束の塊状部が固定されている。
即ち、一つの毛束が一つの毛束固定部によって、前記ヘッド部に固定されているため、仮に植毛穴に成形樹脂を充填する場合であっても、従来のような高い樹脂注入圧で充填する必要はない。
その結果、充填された樹脂が毛束の毛の間を通ってヘッドの表面へ滲み出すのを抑制でき、また毛の下端部同士の接着及び前記毛の下端部と植毛穴との接着を抑制でき、更に植毛穴自体の形状が毛束に倣った形状になるのを抑制できる。
したがって、本発明にかかるブラシは、水抜けが良く、また毛束の所定のしなやかさを維持できる使用感の良いブラシとすることができる。 As described above, in the brush according to the present invention, the lump portion of the hair bundle is fixed by the hair bundle fixing portion provided in each of the plurality of planting holes.
That is, since one hair bundle is fixed to the head portion by one hair bundle fixing portion, even if the flocking hole is filled with a molding resin, the filling is performed at a high resin injection pressure as in the prior art. do not have to.
As a result, the filled resin can be prevented from leaking through the hair bundle to the surface of the head, and the adhesion between the lower ends of the hairs and the adhesion between the lower ends of the hairs and the flocking holes can be suppressed. In addition, it is possible to suppress that the shape of the flocking hole itself becomes a shape conforming to the hair bundle.
Therefore, the brush according to the present invention can be a well-drained brush and can be a brush with a good feeling of use that can maintain a predetermined softness of the hair bundle.

また、複数の植設穴の夫々に毛束固定部が形成されるため、従来のようなヘッド部に一つの凹部が形成されている場合に比べて、凹部の肉厚な縁部が存在しないために、植毛穴をヘッド部の外縁部近傍に形成することができ、ヘッド部全体により多くの毛束を形成することができ、使用感の良いブラシを得ることができる。   In addition, since the hair bundle fixing portion is formed in each of the plurality of planting holes, there is no thick edge of the recess as compared to the case where one recess is formed in the head portion as in the prior art. Therefore, the flocked holes can be formed in the vicinity of the outer edge portion of the head portion, more hair bundles can be formed in the entire head portion, and a brush with a good feeling of use can be obtained.

ここで、前記複数の植設穴の夫々に設けられた毛束固定部が、前記ヘッド部の一部あるいは前記ヘッド部と別の閉塞部材が溶融固化した状態の毛束固定部であることが望ましい。
この毛束固定部は、前記ヘッド部の一部あるいは前記ヘッド部と別の閉塞部材が溶融固化したものであるため、樹脂を充填する場合のように樹脂が毛束の毛の間を通ってヘッドの表面に滲み出ることもなく、毛の下端部同士の接着及び前記毛の下端部と植毛穴との接着を防止することができ、また植毛穴自体の形状が毛束に倣った形状になるのを防止することができる。
その結果、水抜けが良く、また毛束の所定のしなやかさを維持できる使用感の良い歯ブラシを得ることができる。
特に、植毛穴の形状を所望の形状に維持することができるため、植毛穴と毛束との間に隙間を形成できると共に、植毛穴の面積と毛束の総面積の割合（毛束の占有率）を、所望の割合に容易になすことができ、所望の水抜け、所望の毛束のしなやかさを有するブラシを得ることができる。 Here, the hair bundle fixing portion provided in each of the plurality of planting holes is a hair bundle fixing portion in a state in which a part of the head portion or a closure member different from the head portion is solidified by melting. desirable.
Since the hair bundle fixing portion is obtained by solidifying and solidifying a part of the head portion or the closing member other than the head portion, the resin passes between the hairs of the hair bundle as in the case of resin filling. It is possible to prevent the adhesion of the lower ends of the hairs and the adhesion between the lower ends of the hairs and the flocking holes without bleeding onto the surface of the head, and the flocking holes themselves have a shape conforming to the hair bundle Can be prevented.
As a result, it is possible to obtain a toothbrush with a good feeling of use, which is good in water leakage and can maintain predetermined flexibility of the hair bundle.
In particular, since the shape of the flocking hole can be maintained in a desired shape, a gap can be formed between the flocking hole and the hair bundle, and the area of the hairdressing hole and the total area of the hair bundle (occlusion of hair bundle The ratio can be easily made to the desired ratio, and it is possible to obtain a brush with desired water loss and desired hair bundle softness.

また、前記複数の植設穴の夫々に設けられた毛束固定部の表面が、ヘッド部背面から突出していることが望ましい。即ち、固定部がヘッド部背面において凸部として形成されている。
このように、固定部の表面がヘッド部背面から突出するように構成されることにより、ヘッド部の厚さを薄くしつつ、ヘッド部（植毛穴）による毛束の保持長さを長くすることができる。 Moreover, it is desirable that the surface of the hair bundle fixing portion provided in each of the plurality of planting holes is projected from the back of the head portion. That is, the fixing portion is formed as a convex portion on the back surface of the head portion.
As described above, the surface of the fixing portion is configured to protrude from the back surface of the head portion, whereby the holding length of the hair bundle by the head portion (flocked hole) is lengthened while reducing the thickness of the head portion. Can.

更に、前記毛束の塊状部が、前記ヘッド部の表面を基準として、前記ヘッド部厚さの５０％以上の位置に配置されていることが望ましい。
尚、前記ヘッド部厚さの５０％未満の位置に配置されている場合には、ヘッド部（植設穴）による毛束の保持長さが短く、また毛の可動支点（ヘッド部表面側の植設穴の縁部と毛の接触点）が前記塊状部の近傍になるため、毛が抜け易いという弊害が生じるため、好ましくない。また、毛の可動支点が前記塊状部の近傍になるため、毛の振幅が大きくなるため、毛先が開き易くなるという弊害が生じるため、好ましくない。 Furthermore, it is preferable that the lumps of the hair bundle be disposed at a position of 50% or more of the thickness of the head portion with reference to the surface of the head portion.
In addition, when it arrange | positions in the position of less than 50% of the said head part thickness, the holding length of the hair bundle by a head part (planting hole) is short, and the movable fulcrum of hairs (head part surface side Since the edge of the planting hole and the contact point of the hair are in the vicinity of the massive portion, a bad effect that the hair is easily removed is not preferable. In addition, since the movable fulcrum of the hair is in the vicinity of the massive portion, the amplitude of the hair is increased, which causes an adverse effect that the hair tip is easily opened, which is not preferable.

また、前記ヘッド部の表面側の植設穴の開口縁が、曲面形状あるいは面取りされていることが望ましい。
前記ヘッド部の表面側の植設穴の開口縁が垂直な角部である場合には、前記角部により毛が折れ曲がり易くなり、好ましくない。これに対して、植設穴の開口縁が曲面形状あるいは面取りされている場合には、毛の折れ曲がりが抑制されると共に、製造時に毛束を挿入する際のガイドとしての機能させることができる。 In addition, it is desirable that the opening edge of the planting hole on the front surface side of the head portion is curved or chamfered.
In the case where the opening edge of the planting hole on the surface side of the head portion is a vertical corner, the hair is likely to be broken by the corner, which is not preferable. On the other hand, when the opening edge of the planting hole is curved or chamfered, bending of the hair is suppressed and the hair can be functioned as a guide when inserting the hair bundle at the time of manufacture.

上記目的を達成するためになされた本発明にかかるブラシの製造方法は、上記ブラシの製造方法において、複数の貫通した植設穴と、前記係止部とを備えるヘッド部を樹脂成形により形成する工程と、前記ヘッド部形成工程の後、複数の合成樹脂製繊維からなる毛束を、前記植設穴に挿通する工程と、前記植設穴に毛束を挿通する工程の後、ヘッド部の背面側における毛束の一端部を、溶融固化し、塊状部を形成する工程と、前記塊状部の形成工程の後、前記塊状部を前記係止部に係止する工程と、前記複数の植設穴の夫々に形成され、かつ溶融した樹脂により前記塊状部の背面側を覆い、前記溶融した樹脂が固化することにより前記毛束を前記ヘッド部に固定する、複数の毛束固定部を形成する工程と、を備え、前記毛束固定部を形成する工程では、前記一つの毛束が一つの毛束固定部によって、前記ヘッド部に固定されることを特徴としている。   In the brush manufacturing method according to the present invention made to achieve the above object, in the brush manufacturing method, a head portion including a plurality of penetrating planting holes and the locking portion is formed by resin molding. And after the step of forming the head portion, the step of inserting a hair bundle made of a plurality of synthetic resin fibers into the planting hole and the step of inserting the hair bundle into the planting hole; A step of melting and solidifying one end of the hair bundle on the back side to form a massive portion; a step of locking the massive portion to the locking portion after the step of forming the massive portion; A plurality of hair bundle fixing portions are formed which are formed in respective holes and cover the back side of the massive portion with a molten resin, and the molten resin is solidified to fix the hair bundle to the head portion. Forming the hair bundle fixing portion The extent, the one tuft is by one tuft fixed portion, and characterized in that it is fixed to the head portion.

このように、本発明にかかるブラシの製造方法は、複数の植設穴の夫々に形成され、かつ溶融した樹脂により前記塊状部の背面側を覆い、前記溶融した樹脂が固化することにより前記毛束を前記ヘッド部に固定する、複数の毛束固定部を形成する工程を備えている。そして、一つの毛束が一つの毛束固定部によって、前記ヘッド部に固定されるようになされるため、仮に植毛穴に成形樹脂を充填する場合であっても、従来のような高い樹脂注入圧で充填する必要はない。
その結果、充填された樹脂が毛束の毛の間を通ってヘッド表面へ滲み出すのを抑制でき、また毛の下端部同士の接着及び前記毛の下端部と植毛穴との接着を抑制でき、更に植毛穴自体の形状が毛束に倣った形状になるのを抑制できる。
したがって、本発明にかかるブラシにあっては、水抜けが良く、また毛束の所定のしなやかさを維持できる使用感の良いものとすることができる。 Thus, in the method for producing a brush according to the present invention, the bristles are formed in each of the plurality of planting holes, and the back side of the massive portion is covered with the molten resin, and the molten resin solidifies by the solidified resin. Forming a plurality of hair bundle fixing portions for fixing the bundle to the head portion. Then, since one hair bundle is fixed to the head portion by one hair bundle fixing portion, even in the case where a molding resin is temporarily filled in a flocking hole, a conventional high resin injection is carried out. There is no need to fill with pressure.
As a result, the filled resin can be prevented from leaking between the hairs of the hair bundle to the head surface, and adhesion between the lower ends of the hairs and adhesion between the lower ends of the hairs and the flocking holes can be suppressed. Furthermore, it can be suppressed that the shape of the flocking hole itself becomes a shape conforming to the hair bundle.
Therefore, in the brush according to the present invention, it is possible to have good water leakage and a good feeling of use capable of maintaining the predetermined flexibility of the hair bundle.

また、複数の植設穴の夫々に毛束固定部が形成されるため、従来のようなヘッド部に一つの凹部が形成されている場合に比べて、凹部の肉厚な縁部が存在しないために、植毛穴をヘッド部の外縁部近傍に形成することができ、ヘッド部全体により多くの毛束を形成することができ、使用感の良いブラシとすることができる。   In addition, since the hair bundle fixing portion is formed in each of the plurality of planting holes, there is no thick edge of the recess as compared to the case where one recess is formed in the head portion as in the prior art. Therefore, the flocked holes can be formed in the vicinity of the outer edge portion of the head portion, more hair bundles can be formed in the entire head portion, and a brush with a good feeling of use can be obtained.

ここで、毛束固定部を形成する工程において、前記毛束固定部は、前記複数の植設穴の夫々に、溶融した樹脂が注入充填され、前記樹脂が固化することにより、前記毛束固定部が形成されることが望ましい。
このように、複数の植設穴の夫々に、個別に毛束固定部が設けられるため、従来のブラシのように高い樹脂注入圧で充填する必要はなく、低い樹脂注入圧で十分充填することができるため、充填された樹脂が毛束の毛の間を通って、ヘッド表面へ滲み出すのを抑制することができる。 Here, in the step of forming the hair bundle fixing portion, in the hair bundle fixing portion, the molten resin is injected and filled in each of the plurality of planting holes, and the resin is solidified to solidify the hair bundle. It is desirable that a part be formed.
As described above, since the hair bundle fixing portion is individually provided in each of the plurality of planting holes, it is not necessary to fill with a high resin injection pressure as in the conventional brush, and sufficient filling with a low resin injection pressure Thus, the filled resin can be prevented from exuding to the head surface through the spaces between the hair bundles.

また、前記ヘッド部形成工程において、前記ヘッド部の背面側の複数の植設穴の夫々に、植設穴の周囲を囲うように壁部を形成し、前記毛束をヘッド部に固定する工程において、前記壁部を溶融固化し、前記ヘッド部の背面側の複数の植設穴の夫々に、前記塊状部の背面側を覆う毛束固定部を形成することが望ましい。
このように、ヘッド部の背面側の植設穴の周囲を囲うように形成された壁部を形成し、この壁部を溶融固化することにより、容易に塊状部の背面側を覆うことができ、前記毛束を前記ヘッド部に確実に固定することができる。
特に、植毛穴の形状を所望の形状に維持することができるため、植毛穴と毛束との間に隙間を形成できると共に、植毛穴の面積と毛束の総面積の割合（毛束の占有率）を、所望の割合に容易になすことができ、所望の水抜け、所望の毛束のしなやかさを有するブラシを得ることができる。 In the head portion forming step, a wall portion is formed in each of the plurality of planting holes on the back side of the head portion so as to surround the periphery of the planting hole, and the hair bundle is fixed to the head portion. Preferably, the wall portion is melted and solidified, and a hair bundle fixing portion covering the back surface side of the massive portion is formed on each of the plurality of planting holes on the back surface side of the head portion.
As described above, by forming a wall formed so as to surround the periphery of the planting hole on the back side of the head, and melting and solidifying the wall, the back side of the massive portion can be easily covered. The hair bundle can be reliably fixed to the head portion.
In particular, since the shape of the flocking hole can be maintained in a desired shape, a gap can be formed between the flocking hole and the hair bundle, and the area of the hairdressing hole and the total area of the hair bundle (occlusion of hair bundle The ratio can be easily made to the desired ratio, and it is possible to obtain a brush with desired water loss and desired hair bundle softness.

また、前記毛束をヘッド部に固定する工程において、前記ヘッド部の背面側の複数の植設穴の夫々に、前記ヘッド部の背面側の植設穴の周囲を囲うようにヘッド部と別の閉塞部材を配置し、前記閉塞部材を溶融固化し、前記ヘッド部の背面側の複数の植設穴の夫々に、前記塊状部の背面側を覆う毛束固定部を形成することが望ましい。
この場合においても、容易に塊状部の背面側を覆うことができ、前記毛束を前記ヘッド部に確実に固定することができ、植毛穴の形状を所望の形状に維持することができるため、所望の水抜け、所望の毛束のしなやかさを有する使用感の良いブラシとすることができる。 Further, in the step of fixing the hair bundle to the head portion, the plurality of planting holes on the back side of the head portion separately from the head portion so as to surround the periphery of the planting holes on the back side of the head portion. It is desirable that the closure member is disposed, the closure member is melted and solidified, and a hair bundle fixing portion covering the back surface side of the massive portion is formed in each of the plurality of implantation holes on the back surface side of the head portion.
Also in this case, the back side of the massive portion can be easily covered, the hair bundle can be securely fixed to the head portion, and the shape of the flocked hole can be maintained in a desired shape, It is possible to make a brush with a desired feeling of use having desired water leakage and flexibility of desired hair bundle.

尚、ヘッド部の一部、あるいは植設穴が配置されたヘッド部と別の閉塞部材を溶融固化し、前記塊状部の背面側を覆い、前記毛束を前記ヘッド部に固定する固定部を形成する場合には、成形金型を必要としないため、安価に製造することができる。   In addition, a part of the head portion or a closing member other than the head portion in which the planting hole is disposed is melted and solidified to cover the back side of the massive portion, and a fixing portion for fixing the hair bundle to the head portion In the case of forming, since it does not require a molding die, it can be manufactured inexpensively.

本発明によれば、水抜けが良く、また毛束の所定のしなやかさを維持できる使用感の良いブラシ及びブラシの製造方法を得ることができる。   According to the present invention, it is possible to obtain a brush and a method of manufacturing a brush with a good feeling of use, which is excellent in water loss and can maintain predetermined flexibility of the hair bundle.

尚、図１は、本発明にかかる歯ブラシの一実施形態を示す斜視図であり、（ａ）は歯ブラシの背面側からみた斜視図であり、（ｂ）は歯ブラシの表面側からみた斜視図である。また図２は、図１（ａ）のＩ−Ｉ断面図である。更に、図３は植設穴の拡大図である。 Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described based on FIGS. 1 to 8. In the description of this embodiment, a toothbrush is described as an example.
1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of the toothbrush according to the present invention, (a) is a perspective view seen from the back side of the toothbrush, (b) is a perspective view seen from the front side of the toothbrush is there. FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line I-I of FIG. Furthermore, FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of the planting hole.

図中、符号１は歯ブラシを示し、符号２は歯ブラシ１の柄を示し、この柄の先端部分に歯ブラシ３が設けられる歯ブラシヘッド（以下、ヘッド部という）４が形成されている。前記歯ブラシ３は、複数本の合成樹脂製繊維５からなる毛束５Ａを、前記ヘッド部４の複数個所に植設することにより形成される。   In the drawings, reference numeral 1 denotes a toothbrush, and reference numeral 2 denotes a handle of the toothbrush 1. A toothbrush head (hereinafter referred to as a head portion) 4 on which the toothbrush 3 is provided is formed at the tip of this handle. The toothbrush 3 is formed by implanting hair bundles 5A made of a plurality of synthetic resin fibers 5 in a plurality of places of the head portion 4.

また、図２に示すように、前記ヘッド部２の背面側における毛束５Ａの一端部には、塊状部５Ｂが形成されている。この塊状部５Ｂは、毛束５Ａが溶融固化した状態で形成される。
更に、前記ヘッド部４には、毛束５Ａが挿通し、保持される複数の植設穴６が形成されている。前記植設穴６の上端部には、前記植設穴６の他の部分（小径部）よりも径が大きい大径部６ｂが形成されている。尚、この大径部６ｂは植設穴６の一部を構成するものであり、植設穴６と連通している。即ち、この大径部６ｂは、前記大径部６ｂ（底面部）と植設穴（小径部）６の境界部に、いわゆる段部である係止部６ａを形成するものである。また、前記係止部６ａは前記塊状部５Ｂが係止されるように構成されている。
尚、前記大径部６ｂは係止部６ａが形成できる程度の径を有していれば良く、必要以上に径を大きくすることは、ヘッド部２に形成される植設穴６の数を少なくすることを意味し、好ましくない。 Further, as shown in FIG. 2, a massive portion 5B is formed at one end of the hair bundle 5A on the back side of the head portion 2. The massive portion 5B is formed in a state in which the hair bundle 5A is melted and solidified.
Further, the head portion 4 is formed with a plurality of planting holes 6 through which the hair bundle 5A is inserted and held. The upper end portion of the planting hole 6 is formed with a large diameter portion 6 b having a diameter larger than that of the other portion (small diameter portion) of the planting hole 6. The large diameter portion 6 b constitutes a part of the planting hole 6 and is in communication with the planting hole 6. That is, the large diameter portion 6b forms a locking portion 6a, which is a so-called stepped portion, at the boundary between the large diameter portion 6b (bottom surface portion) and the planting hole (small diameter portion) 6. The locking portion 6a is configured to lock the massive portion 5B.
The large diameter portion 6b only needs to have a diameter that allows the locking portion 6a to be formed, and making the diameter larger than necessary means the number of the planting holes 6 formed in the head portion 2 It means to reduce, which is not preferable.

この植設穴６は、ヘッド部４の表面４ａ側と背面４ｂ側とを貫通して形成され、植設穴６（大径部６ｂ）の背面側の開口部を、毛束固定部７によって覆うことによって、前記毛束５Ａはヘッド部４に固定される。尚、この毛束固定部７は、ヘッド部４の一部が溶融固化した状態のものである。   The planting hole 6 is formed by penetrating the surface 4 a side and the back surface 4 b side of the head portion 4, and the opening on the back surface side of the planting hole 6 (large diameter portion 6 b) is formed by the hair bundle fixing portion 7 The hair bundle 5A is fixed to the head portion 4 by covering. The hair bundle fixing portion 7 is a state in which a part of the head portion 4 is melted and solidified.

前記毛束固定部７は、ヘッド部４の背面４ｂから突出した凸部として形成されている。このように、毛束固定部７の表面がヘッド部４の背面から突出するように構成するのは、ヘッド部４の厚さを薄くしつつ、植設穴６による毛束５Ａの保持長さを長くするためである。
特に、前記塊状部５Ｂが、前記ヘッド部４の表面４ａから前記ヘッド部厚さｔ１の５０％以上の位置（寸法ｔ２）に、配置されていることが望ましい。
このヘッド部の厚さとは、ヘッド部の最大厚さをいい、毛束固定部７はヘッド部４の背面４ｂから突出した凸部として形成されている場合には、ヘッド部４の表面から毛束固定部７の凸部表面までの寸法を言う。
尚、前記ヘッド部厚さの５０％未満の位置に配置されている場合には、ヘッド部４（植設穴６）による毛束の保持長さが短く、また毛の可動支点Ｐ（ヘッド部表面側の植設穴の縁部と毛の接触点）が前記塊状部５Ｂの近傍になるため、毛が抜け易いという弊害が生じるため、好ましくない。また、毛の可動支点Ｐが前記塊状部５Ｂの近傍になるため、毛の振幅（振れ）が大きくなり、毛先が開き易くなるという弊害が生じるため、好ましくない。 The hair bundle fixing portion 7 is formed as a convex portion protruding from the back surface 4 b of the head portion 4. As described above, the surface of the hair bundle fixing portion 7 is configured to protrude from the back surface of the head portion 4 because the thickness of the head portion 4 is reduced and the holding length of the hair bundle 5A by the planting hole 6 To make the
In particular, it is desirable that the massive portion 5B be disposed at a position (dimension t2) of 50% or more of the head portion thickness t1 from the surface 4a of the head portion 4.
The thickness of the head portion means the maximum thickness of the head portion, and in the case where the hair bundle fixing portion 7 is formed as a convex portion protruding from the back surface 4 b of the head portion 4, hair from the surface of the head portion 4 The dimension up to the convex surface of the bundle fixing portion 7 is referred to.
When the head portion 4 is disposed at a position less than 50% of the thickness of the head portion, the holding length of the hair bundle by the head portion 4 (planting hole 6) is short, and the movable fulcrum P of the hair (head portion The contact point between the edge of the surface-side planting hole and the hair is in the vicinity of the massive portion 5B, which is not preferable because the hair is easily removed. Further, since the movable fulcrum point P of the hair is in the vicinity of the massive portion 5B, the amplitude (deflection) of the hair is increased, which causes an adverse effect that the hair tip is easily opened, which is not preferable.

また、図３に示すように、前記ヘッド部４の表面側の植設穴６の開口縁６ｃが、曲面形状あるいは面取りされている。前記ヘッド部４の表面側の植設穴６の開口縁６ｃが垂直な角部である場合には、前記角部により毛５が折れ曲がり易くなり、好ましくない。これに対して、植設穴６の開口縁６ｃが曲面形状あるいは面取りされている場合には、毛５の折れ曲がりが抑制されると共に、製造時に毛束５Ａを挿入する際のガイドとしての機能させることができる。   Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the opening edge 6 c of the planting hole 6 on the surface side of the head portion 4 is curved or chamfered. When the opening edge 6c of the planting hole 6 on the front surface side of the head portion 4 is a vertical corner, the bristles 5 are easily bent by the corner, which is not preferable. On the other hand, when the opening edge 6c of the planting hole 6 is curved or chamfered, bending of the hair 5 is suppressed, and it functions as a guide when inserting the hair bundle 5A at the time of manufacture be able to.

また、図５（ａ）に示すように、前記毛束固定部７は、前記ヘッド部４の背面側の植設穴６（大径部６ｂ）の周囲を囲うように形成された、外形が円筒状あるいは円錐台形状（中心部に植設穴６が形成された）の壁部４ｃを溶融固化して形成される。外形が円筒状あるいは円錐台形状の壁部４ｃの場合、上方からヒータのような加熱溶融装置を押し当てることにより、容易に毛束固定部７を形成することができる。
尚、前記壁部４ｃは、植設穴６の全周を囲うように形成する必要はなく、植設穴６の一部を囲うものであっても良い。即ち、前記壁部４ｃは、溶融して前記植設穴６（大径部６ｂ）の開口部６ｂ１を塞ぎ、前記塊状部５Ｂを固定できるものであれば良い。 Further, as shown in FIG. 5 (a), the hair bundle fixing portion 7 is formed so as to surround the periphery of the planting hole 6 (large diameter portion 6b) on the back surface side of the head portion 4. It is formed by melting and solidifying the wall portion 4c having a cylindrical or frusto-conical shape (in which the implantation hole 6 is formed in the center). In the case of the cylindrical or frusto-conical wall portion 4c, the hair bundle fixing portion 7 can be easily formed by pressing a heating and melting device such as a heater from above.
The wall portion 4 c does not have to be formed to surround the entire circumference of the planting hole 6, and may partially surround the planting hole 6. That is, the wall portion 4c may be any as long as it can melt and close the opening 6b1 of the planting hole 6 (large diameter portion 6b) and fix the massive portion 5B.

また前記ヘッド部４は、ポリプロピレン樹脂、ポリアセタール樹脂、ポリオキシメチレン樹脂等の樹脂で、歯ブラシ１の柄２と一体に形成される。また、前記ヘッド部４は、例えば、幅６〜１５ｍｍ、長さ１５〜３５ｍｍ、厚さ２〜７ｍｍに形成される。   Further, the head portion 4 is formed integrally with the handle 2 of the toothbrush 1 with a resin such as a polypropylene resin, a polyacetal resin, or a polyoxymethylene resin. Moreover, the said head part 4 is formed in width 6-15 mm, length 15-35 mm, and thickness 2-7 mm, for example.

また、ヘッド部４に植設された合成樹脂製繊維５は、例えば、ヘッド部４の表面から９〜１４ｍｍの長さに形成される。前記歯ブラシ３を構成する合成樹脂製繊維５の素材としては、６，６−ナイロン，６−ナイロン、１２−ナイロン、６，１０−ナイロン、６，１２−ナイロン等のポリアミド系樹脂、ポリエチレン、ポリプロピレン等のポリオレフィン系樹脂、ポリエチレンテレフタレート、ポリブチレンテレフタレート、ポリトリメチレンテレフタレート等のポリエステル系樹脂が用いられている。   The synthetic resin fiber 5 implanted in the head 4 is, for example, 9 to 14 mm in length from the surface of the head 4. The material of the synthetic resin fiber 5 constituting the toothbrush 3 is a polyamide resin such as 6,6-nylon, 6-nylon, 12-nylon, 6,10-nylon, 6,12-nylon, polyethylene, polypropylene And polyester resins such as polyethylene terephthalate, polybutylene terephthalate, and polytrimethylene terephthalate.

この歯ブラシ部３を構成する合成樹脂製繊維５としては、図４（ａ）で拡大した模式図で示すように、先端に向かうにしたがって径が徐々に小さく形成され、先端部に先細りのテーパ面５ａ１が形成されたテーパ繊維５ａと、図４（ｂ）で拡大した模式図で示すように、円柱状の繊維（非テーパ繊維）５ｂとを含んでいる。
このテーパ繊維５ａのテーパ面５ａ１長さＸは、合成樹脂製繊維の先端から１〜５ｍｍの範囲に形成されている。 As shown in the schematic view enlarged in FIG. 4A, the synthetic resin fiber 5 constituting the toothbrush portion 3 is formed such that the diameter gradually decreases toward the tip, and the tapered surface is tapered at the tip. It includes a tapered fiber 5a in which 5a1 is formed, and a cylindrical fiber (non-tapered fiber) 5b as shown in a schematic view enlarged in FIG. 4 (b).
The tapered surface 5a1 length X of the tapered fiber 5a is formed in the range of 1 to 5 mm from the tip of the synthetic resin fiber.

このようにテーパ繊維５ａのテーパ面５ａ１長さＸが、合成樹脂製繊維の先端から１〜５ｍｍの範囲に形成したのは、歯周ポケット等の掃き出し効果と、歯面の清掃効果を考慮したものである。その結果、中程度の歯周炎を患っている患者に対応した歯ブラシとすることができる。
即ち、テーパ面５ａ１長さＸが１ｍｍ未満の場合、テーパ繊維５ａが歯周ポケットの深部まで侵入せず、前記ポケット奥の清掃が不十分になる。一方、テーパ面５ａ１長さＸが５ｍｍを超える場合、毛先（テーパ繊維）が細くなり過ぎ、歯周ポケット内の汚れを掃き出し難く、また、腰（曲げに対する反発力）が弱く、歯面を磨く効果も低下するため、好ましくない。 Thus, the taper surface 5a1 length X of the taper fiber 5a is formed in the range of 1 to 5 mm from the tip of the synthetic resin fiber in consideration of the sweeping effect of the periodontal pocket etc. and the cleaning effect of the tooth surface. It is a thing. As a result, a toothbrush corresponding to a patient suffering from moderate periodontitis can be obtained.
That is, when the tapered surface 5a1 has a length X of less than 1 mm, the tapered fiber 5a does not penetrate to the deep part of the periodontal pocket, and the cleaning of the back of the pocket becomes insufficient. On the other hand, if the tapered surface 5a1 has a length X of more than 5 mm, the tips (tapered fibers) become too thin and it is difficult to sweep out dirt in the periodontal pocket, and the waist (reflexion force against bending) is weak. It is not preferable because the polishing effect is also reduced.

この合成樹脂製繊維としては、直径が０．１０ｍｍ〜０．２５ｍｍ程度のものが適度な弾力が得られると共に、曲がりや折れなどの抑制効果も有しており、歯ブラシの歯ブラシとして好適に利用することができる。
前記直径は、テーパ繊維５ａ及び非テーパ繊維５ｂ共に、好ましくは０．１５ｍｍ〜０．２５ｍｍのものが良い。尚、前記テーパ繊維５ａの直径は、円柱部（テーパ面５ａ１が形成されていない部分）の径である。 As the synthetic resin fiber, one having a diameter of about 0.10 mm to 0.25 mm can obtain appropriate elasticity, and also has a suppressing effect such as bending or breaking, and is suitably used as a toothbrush of a toothbrush be able to.
The diameter of each of the tapered fibers 5a and the non-taper fibers 5b is preferably 0.15 mm to 0.25 mm. In addition, the diameter of the said taper fiber 5a is a diameter of a cylindrical part (part in which the taper surface 5a1 is not formed).

また、前記合成樹脂製繊維は円柱状以外に、その断面形状が楕円形状、星型形状、まゆ型形状、十字型形状、多角形型形状のいずれであっても良い。   The synthetic resin fiber may have any of an elliptical shape, a star shape, a cocoon shape, a cross shape, and a polygonal shape in addition to the cylindrical shape.

また、合成樹脂製繊維５が集合した一つ束の繊維の数は、適宜設定することができるが、通常一つの植毛穴６から飛び出る本数として２０〜５０本のものを好適に利用することができる。また、前記歯ブラシ１の柄２の先端部に植設される繊維束５Ａ（植毛穴６）の数は、適宜設定することができるが、通常１４箇所〜４０箇所植設されるものを好適に利用することができる。   Moreover, the number of fibers in one bundle in which the synthetic resin fibers 5 are gathered can be set as appropriate, but it is preferable to normally use 20 to 50 fibers as the number jumping out from one flocking hole 6 it can. Further, the number of fiber bundles 5A (flocked holes 6) implanted at the tip of the handle 2 of the toothbrush 1 can be set as appropriate, but preferably 14 to 40 are usually implanted. It can be used.

以上のように構成された歯ブラシにあっては、平線を用いることなく、植設穴６に挿通した毛束５Ａの一端部に形成された塊状部５Ｂを、ヘッド部４の一部を溶融固化した状態の毛束固定部７によって固定される。そのため、従来の歯ブラシのように一つの凹部内に樹脂を充填しないため、前記毛束を固定する固定部とヘッド部の界面が存在せず、固定部が脱落するという弊害を防止することができる。   In the toothbrush configured as described above, the lump portion 5B formed at one end of the hair bundle 5A inserted into the planting hole 6 is melted at a part of the head portion 4 without using a flat wire. It is fixed by the hair bundle fixing part 7 in a solidified state. Therefore, since the resin is not filled in one recess as in the conventional toothbrush, the interface between the fixing portion for fixing the hair bundle and the head portion does not exist, and the problem that the fixing portion falls off can be prevented. .

また、前記歯ブラシは、歯ブラシ本体部（ヘッド部と柄部）の形成と毛束のヘッド部への固定が同時に行われる従来の歯ブラシと異なり、毛の下端部同士が接着されることはなく、また毛の下端部が歯ブラシ本体部（ヘッド部）に接着されることもない。
また、前記歯ブラシの植毛穴は、前記従来の歯ブラシのように毛束に倣った形状にならず、毛の下端部と歯ブラシ本体部（ヘッド部）との間に隙間が形成される。
その結果、水抜けが良く、また毛束の所定のしなやかさを維持できる使用感の良い歯ブラシを得ることができる。
特に、また植毛穴の形状を所望の形状に維持することができるため、植毛穴と毛束との間に隙間を形成できると共に、植毛穴の面積と毛束の総面積の割合（毛束の占有率）を、所望の割合に容易になすことができ、所望の水抜け、所望の毛束のしなやかさを有する歯ブラシを得ることができる。 Further, unlike the conventional toothbrush in which the formation of the toothbrush main body (head portion and handle portion) and the fixation of the hair bundle to the head portion are simultaneously performed, the lower ends of the hairs are not adhered to each other. Further, the lower end of the hair is not adhered to the toothbrush main body (head).
Further, the flocking hole of the toothbrush does not follow the shape of the hair bundle as the conventional toothbrush, and a gap is formed between the lower end of the hair and the toothbrush main body (head).
As a result, it is possible to obtain a toothbrush with a good feeling of use, which is good in water leakage and can maintain predetermined flexibility of the hair bundle.
In particular, since the shape of the flocking holes can be maintained in a desired shape, a gap can be formed between the flocking holes and the hair bundle, and the area of the hairdressing hole and the total area of the hair bundle (hair bundle The occupancy rate can be easily made in a desired ratio, and a toothbrush having desired water loss and desired hair bundle softness can be obtained.

次に、本発明にかかる歯ブラシの製造方法の一実施形態について説明する。
まず、図５（ａ）に示すように、複数の貫通した植設穴６と、前記植設穴６の上部に設けられた大径部６ｂの底面に形成された係止部６ａとを備えるヘッド部４を有する歯ブラシ１を樹脂成形により形成する。
前記ヘッド部４を有する歯ブラシ１を形成した後、図５（ｂ）に示すように、複数の合成樹脂製繊維５からなる毛束５Ａを、前記植設穴６に挿通する。このとき、前記植設穴６の表面側の開口縁（開口部６ｃ）が曲面形状あるいは面取りされている。
そのため、植設穴６の表面側の開口縁（開口部６ｃ）は、前記毛束５Ａを挿入する際のガイドとして機能し、前記毛束５Ａを前記植設穴６に容易に挿通することができる。 Next, an embodiment of a method of manufacturing a toothbrush according to the present invention will be described.
First, as shown in FIG. 5 (a), a plurality of penetrating planting holes 6 and a locking portion 6a formed on the bottom of a large diameter portion 6b provided on the top of the planting hole 6 are provided. The toothbrush 1 having the head portion 4 is formed by resin molding.
After the toothbrush 1 having the head portion 4 is formed, as shown in FIG. 5 (b), the hair bundle 5 A made of a plurality of synthetic resin fibers 5 is inserted into the planting hole 6. At this time, the opening edge (opening 6c) on the surface side of the planting hole 6 is curved or chamfered.
Therefore, the opening edge (opening 6c) on the surface side of the planting hole 6 functions as a guide when inserting the hair bundle 5A, and the hair bundle 5A can be easily inserted into the planting hole 6 it can.

前記植設穴６に毛束５Ａを挿通した後、図５（ｃ）に示すように、ヘッド部４の背面側における毛束５Ａの一端部を、加熱溶融装置８により、溶融、固化し、塊状部５Ｂを形成する。
この加熱溶融装置８としては、一般的に用いられているヒータのような加熱溶融装置、あるいはインパルスウェルダー（ＩＰＷ）を用いることができる。
前記ヒータを用いる場合には、毛束５Ａの一端部に近接（非接触）させて加熱溶融するため、塊状部５Ｂの形状の形を整えることができない。そのため、後の工程の押し込み工程で、塊状部５Ｂを大径部６ｂ内に収容することができない虞がある。
一方、インパルスウェルダー（ＩＰＷ）を用いる場合には、加熱チップ８ａを有し、前記加熱チップ８ａに接触させることにより、塊状部５Ｂを形成するため、その形状を整えることができ、塊状部５Ｂを大径部６ｂ内に収容できないという弊害を防止することができる。 After the hair bundle 5A is inserted into the planting hole 6, one end of the hair bundle 5A on the back side of the head portion 4 is melted and solidified by the heating and melting device 8, as shown in FIG. The massive portion 5B is formed.
As the heating and melting apparatus 8, a heating and melting apparatus such as a commonly used heater or an impulse welder (IPW) can be used.
In the case of using the heater, the shape of the massive portion 5B can not be adjusted because it is heated and melted in proximity to (not in contact with) one end of the hair bundle 5A. Therefore, there is a possibility that the massive portion 5B can not be accommodated in the large diameter portion 6b in the pushing process in the later process.
On the other hand, in the case of using an impulse welder (IPW), the heating chip 8a is provided, and the massive portion 5B can be formed by bringing the massive portion 5B into contact by contacting the heating tip 8a. The adverse effect that it can not be accommodated in the large diameter portion 6b can be prevented.

図７に基づいて、インパルスウェルダー（ＩＰＷ）を用いて塊状部５Ｂを形成する場合について説明する。
前記したように、インパルスウェルダー（ＩＰＷ）を用いる場合には、加熱チップ８ａを有し、前記加熱チップ８ａには所定形状のキャビティ８ａ１が形成されている。この加熱チップ８ａを、図７（ａ）に示す状態から下降させる。そして、図７（ｂ）に示すように、キャビティ８ａ内に毛束５Ａの一端部を収容し、加熱溶融する。このとき、毛束５Ａの一端部は、前記キャビティ８ａによって成形され、所定形状の塊状部５Ｂとすることができる。 The case where the massive portion 5B is formed using an impulse welder (IPW) will be described based on FIG.
As described above, in the case of using an impulse welder (IPW), a heating chip 8a is provided, and a cavity 8a1 having a predetermined shape is formed in the heating chip 8a. The heating chip 8a is lowered from the state shown in FIG. 7 (a). And as shown in FIG.7 (b), the one end part of the hair bundle 5A is accommodated in the cavity 8a, and it heat-melts. At this time, one end of the hair bundle 5A can be formed by the cavity 8a to form a massive portion 5B having a predetermined shape.

更に、図５（ｄ）に戻って説明する。
図５（ｄ）に示すように、合成樹脂製繊維（毛）５の毛束５Ａを切断した後、図６（ａ）に示すように、押しピン９で、前記大径部６ｂの底面によって形成された係止部６ａまで前記塊状部５Ｂを押し込み、前記塊状部５Ｂを係止部６ａに係止させる。
尚、この押し込み工程では、押しピン９で塊状部５Ｂを押し込む法を説明したが、本発明はこれに限定されるものではなく、空気を噴射するノズルを設け、該空気を塊状部５Ｂに噴射し、塊状部５Ｂを押し込んでも良い。 Furthermore, it returns to Drawing 5 (d) and explains.
As shown in FIG. 5D, after cutting the hair bundle 5A of the synthetic resin fiber (hair) 5, as shown in FIG. 6A, with the push pin 9, depending on the bottom surface of the large diameter portion 6b. The massive portion 5B is pushed to the formed locking portion 6a, and the massive portion 5B is locked to the locking portion 6a.
In this pressing step, the method of pressing the massive portion 5B with the push pin 9 has been described, but the present invention is not limited to this, and a nozzle for jetting air is provided to jet the air to the massive portion 5B. Alternatively, the massive portion 5B may be pressed.

前記塊状部５Ｂの押し込み工程の後、図６（ｂ）に示すように、毛束固定部７を形成する。この毛束固定部７の形成には、インパルスウェルダー（ＩＰＷ）を用いる。
この毛束固定部７の形成工程を、図８に基づいて説明する。前記したように、インパルスウェルダー（ＩＰＷ）は加熱チップ８ｂを有し、前記加熱チップ８ｂには所定形状のキャビティ８ｂ１が形成されている（図８（ａ）参照）。 After the pressing process of the massive portion 5B, as shown in FIG. 6B, the hair bundle fixing portion 7 is formed. An impulse welder (IPW) is used to form the hair bundle fixing portion 7.
The process of forming the hair bundle fixing portion 7 will be described based on FIG. As described above, the impulse welder (IPW) has the heating chip 8b, and the cavity 8b1 having a predetermined shape is formed in the heating chip 8b (see FIG. 8A).

図８（ｂ）に示すように、この加熱チップ８ｂを下降させ、キャビティ８ａ内に壁部４ｃを収容し、加熱溶融する。このとき、キャビティ８ａ内の形状に対応して、壁部４ｃは塊状部５Ｂの背面側を覆う方向に倒れ、前記大径部６ｂの上部開口部６ｂ１を塞ぎ、塊状部５Ｂを固定する毛束固定部７が形成される。即ち、前記塊状部５Ｂは、前記壁部４ｃが加熱溶融され固化することにより、ヘッド部４内に埋設され、固定される。
図８（ｃ）に示すように、前記加熱チップ８ｂを上昇させることにより、ヘッド部４（歯ブラシ１）が完成する。 As shown in FIG. 8B, the heating chip 8b is lowered, the wall 4c is accommodated in the cavity 8a, and it is heated and melted. At this time, corresponding to the shape in the cavity 8a, the wall portion 4c falls in the direction covering the back side of the massive portion 5B, closes the upper opening 6b1 of the large diameter portion 6b, and fixes the massive portion 5B. The fixing portion 7 is formed. That is, the massive portion 5B is embedded and fixed in the head portion 4 when the wall portion 4c is heated and melted and solidified.
As shown in FIG. 8 (c), the head 4 (toothbrush 1) is completed by raising the heating tip 8b.

このように、ヘッド部４の一部（壁部４ｃ）を溶融固化することにより、毛束固定部７が形成されるため、従来の歯ブラシのような毛束を固定する固定部とヘッド部の界面が存在せず、機械的強度を増大させることができる。
また、従来の歯ブラシのように成形金型５０を必要としないため、安価にヘッド部４（歯ブラシ１）を製造することができる。
しかも、前記歯ブラシは、従来の歯ブラシのように、毛束を構成する毛の下端部同士が接着されることはなく、また毛の下端部が歯ブラシ本体部（ヘッド部）に接着されることもない。また、前記歯ブラシの植毛穴は、歯ブラシ本体部（ヘッド部と柄部）の形成と毛束のヘッド部への固定が同時に行われる従来の歯ブラシと異なり、毛束に倣った形状にならず、毛の下端部と歯ブラシ本体部（ヘッド部）との間に隙間が形成され、植毛穴の形状を維持することができる。
その結果、水抜けが良く、また毛束の所定のしなやかさを維持できる使用感の良い歯ブラシとなすことができる。 Thus, since the hair bundle fixing portion 7 is formed by melting and solidifying a part (the wall portion 4c) of the head portion 4, the fixing portion for fixing the hair bundle like the conventional toothbrush and the head portion There is no interface and mechanical strength can be increased.
Moreover, since the shaping | molding die 50 is not required like the conventional toothbrush, the head part 4 (toothbrush 1) can be manufactured cheaply.
Moreover, in the toothbrush, the lower ends of the bristles constituting the tufts are not adhered to each other as in the conventional toothbrush, and the lower ends of the bristles may be adhered to the toothbrush main body (head). Absent. Further, unlike the conventional toothbrush in which the formation of the toothbrush main body (head portion and handle portion) and the fixation of the hair bundle to the head portion are simultaneously performed, the flocking hole of the toothbrush does not have a shape following the hair bundle. A gap is formed between the lower end portion of the hair and the toothbrush main body (head), and the shape of the flocked hole can be maintained.
As a result, it is possible to make the toothbrush easy to use, and to have a good feeling of use that can maintain the predetermined flexibility of the hair bundle.
