この考案は、デンタルフロスを二面に亘つて張
架可能としたフロスホルダーの改良に関する。[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] This invention relates to an improvement of a floss holder that allows dental floss to be stretched across two sides.

Conventionally, as shown in Fig. 3, this kind of holder that allows the dental floss to be replaced as needed has been made by tying the tip of floss f, which has been cut to an appropriate length, to the end of one arm (a) of the holder. , Then, after stretching the floss f using the end of the other arm (b), either lock the end with your fingers or use the grip part (c).
Since the floss was used in conjunction with the floss, it not only took a lot of time to replace the floss, but also caused various problems, such as the floss easily loosening and reducing the operability of the holder. was seen.

Therefore, the present invention solves the above-mentioned problems at once by recessing floss guides at both ends of a roughly S-shaped arm and protruding a stopper on the outside of the arm near the floss guide.
〔作用〕

別の作用を奏するものである。[Function] The floss holder of the present invention has a special function in that it can easily stretch dental floss of a length necessary for cleaning between teeth in a taut state and across two sides.
以下、本案の構成を図面に示す実施例に基づい
て更に具体的に述べると、１は比較的硬質のプラ
スチツク材からなり、交互に二つの弯入部１ａ，

Hereinafter, the structure of the present invention will be described in more detail based on the embodiment shown in the drawings. 1 is made of a relatively hard plastic material, and two curved parts 1a,
1b is a generally S-shaped arm, 2 is a floss guide recessed at both ends of the arm 1, 3 is a stopper for dental floss f protruding from the outer surface of the arm near the floss guide 2, The inside thereof is made into a spherical or tapered surface, and both ends of the floss f stretched above each of the curved portions 1a and 1b of the holder can be wrapped and locked.
而して、本案フロスホルダーは、先ずデンタル
フロスｆの先端を上記一方のストツパー３に巻付
けて係止し（第２図ａ参照）、フロスガイド２に
嵌入させた後、該フロスｆに一定の張力を保持し
つゝこれをホルダーのセンターアーム１′に１〜
２回巻回し（同図ｂ参照）、更に上記フロスｆを
他方のフロスガイド２に嵌入せしめた後、ストツ
パー３に巻付けてその末端を適宜切断するだけで
充分な張力を保持した二面のフロス張りが簡単に
行えるものである（同図ｃ参照）。 Therefore, the floss holder of the present invention first wraps and locks the tip of the dental floss f around one of the stoppers 3 (see Fig. 2 a), and then inserts it into the floss guide 2, and then holds the floss f at a constant level. While maintaining the tension of 1~
After winding the floss twice (see figure b), and then inserting the floss f into the other floss guide 2, winding it around the stopper 3 and cutting the ends appropriately, a two-sided double-faced structure that maintains sufficient tension can be obtained. Flossing can be done easily (see c in the same figure).
このようにしてデンタルフロスｆの張られた本
案ホルダーは、一方のフロスを利用して歯間の挟
雑物や歯垢を除去するものであるが、使用中、上
記一方のフロスｆの汚れが著しくなつた場合に

ロスを張替えることなく未使用側のフロスが直ち
に利用できるのである。 The proposed holder with the dental floss f stretched in this way uses one floss to remove debris and plaque between the teeth, but during use, the one floss f gets dirty. If the floss gets noticeably worse, by switching the arm 1 from the front to the back, the unused side of the floss can be used immediately without having to replace the floss.
以上述べた通り本案フロスホルダーによれば、
アーム１をＳ字状にしたことゝ、その両端近くに
所定のストツパー３を設けたことゝが相俟つて、
歯間の清掃に必要な長さのデンタルフロスｆが充
分な張力を保持しつゝ、しかも二面に亘つて簡単
かつ迅速に張替えることができるものである。
As stated above, according to the main floss holder,
The combination of the fact that the arm 1 is S-shaped and that the prescribed stoppers 3 are provided near both ends of the arm 1,
The dental floss f, which has a length necessary for cleaning between teeth, maintains sufficient tension and can be easily and quickly replaced on two sides.
また本案フロスホルダーは、一本のデンタルフ
ロスｆをセンターアーム１′に巻回，支持せしめ

フロスが弛緩した場合には、把持しているアーム

等、従来のこの種フロスホルダーには期待できな
かつた優れた実用的効果を発揮するものである。 In addition, since the floss holder of the present invention is made by winding a single piece of dental floss f around the center arm 1' and supporting it in a tensioned manner, in the event that the floss loosens during use, it can be held easily. Just by pressing the floss on the arm side with your fingers, you can obtain tension on the floss on the user side, allowing for good holder operation at all times, demonstrating excellent practical effects that could not be expected from conventional floss holders of this type. It is something.
