[Industrial applications]

 INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY The present invention is a tongue coating that also serves as a cleaning tool for the inner wall of the oral cavity that can clean dirt and bacteria that adhere to the surface of the tongue and between the gums and the inner wall of the oral cavity without damaging each tissue. It concerns a removal tool.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Traditionally, a relatively hard spatula made of bamboo or synthetic resin has been used to remove tongue coating. It is said that this spatula is used to scrape out the tongue coating on the tongue surface for cleaning. For some people, a towel is used, and the towel is put on the index finger to insert it into the mouth to wipe away dirt and bacteria that adhere between the gums and the inner wall of the oral cavity, and tongue coating that adheres to the tongue surface. , I use a toothbrush to scrape out the tongue coating. A large water jet cleaning device is used for cleaning the gums and the inner wall of the oral cavity.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, the conventional work of removing tongue coating has various problems as follows. In other words, when scraping out the tongue coating using a relatively hard spatula made of bamboo or synthetic resin, the spatula is so hard that it even damages the taste of the tongue. In addition, a hard spatula often hits the inner wall of the mouth and causes pain. A spatula made of bamboo or synthetic resin will not get wet and will not have a soft feel. Also, when using towels, it is inevitable to feel unhygienic. In the first place, tongue coating is mainly accumulated in the deep part of the tongue, not in the tip part of the tongue, but if you put a towel covered with your finger in the mouth, you will feel vomiting and will not be cleaned. As a result, the towel does not show such a tongue coating removal effect as a result. Towels are manufactured to have good water absorption for their original purpose of use, but when water is absorbed, the fibers become thick and end up sleeping, which causes a problem that the tongue coating removal action is significantly impaired. Similarly, the use of a toothbrush can damage the taste and leaves vomiting likely. The toothbrush is nothing more than a toothbrush. In addition, a large-sized hydraulic jet type cleaning device is too large in scale and tends to lack in convenience.

As described above, conventionally, there has been no rational and safe tongue coating removing device that also serves as a cleaning tool for the inner wall of the oral cavity.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned various problems, is hygienic as an object to be put in the mouth, has a soft feeling in the oral cavity, and does not cause a vomiting sensation. It is an object of the present invention to provide a tongue coating removal brush that doubles as a cleaning tool for the inner wall of the oral cavity, which can reliably remove dirt and bacteria adhering to the inside of the mouth, and tongue coating inside the oral cavity.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 Therefore, according to claim 1 of the present invention, an attachment means that can be attached to an arbitrary pattern is provided on a base in which bundle yarns are formed in an infinite number, or a base in which bundle yarns are formed in an infinite number. , It is a tongue coating removal tool that doubles as a cleaning tool for the inner wall of the oral cavity that is attached to any handle.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, a base body in which a bundle yarn is formed in an infinite number in a loop is provided with an attachment means capable of being attached to an arbitrary handle, or a base body in which a bundle yarn is formed in an infinite number in a loop shape. In a tongue coating removal tool that also functions as a cleaning tool for the inner wall of the oral cavity, which is attached to any pattern, it is characterized in that the bundle thread is a twisted thread.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, an attachment means capable of attaching a bundle yarn to an arbitrary handle is provided on a base in which the bundle yarn is formed in an infinite number, or a base in which the bundle yarn is formed into an infinite number. In a tongue coating remover which also functions as a cleaning tool for the inner wall of the oral cavity, the bundle thread is a twisted untwisted yarn.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, a base in which a bundle yarn is formed in an infinite number in a loop is provided with an attachment means that can be attached to an arbitrary handle, or a base in which a bundle yarn is formed in an infinite number in a loop. In a tongue coating removal tool that doubles as a cleaning tool for the inner wall of the oral cavity, the bundle thread is formed by assembling two or more types of single threads having different materials or thicknesses. It is characterized by that.

According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, an attachment means capable of being attached to an arbitrary handle is provided on a base in which bundle yarns are formed in an infinite number of loops, or a base in which bundle yarns are formed in an infinite number in a loop. In a tongue coating removal tool that also functions as a cleaning tool for the inner wall of the oral cavity, the bundle thread is cut at or near the top of the loop. .

[0011]

[Action]

 Since a myriad of bundle threads are formed in a loop on the substrate, it can be attached between the gum and the oral cavity wall by simply stroking between the gum and the oral cavity wall or the tongue surface. Dirt and bacteria that adhere to the tongue coating on the lingual surface can be easily trapped in the loop. Moreover, each loop is composed of multiple threads in a bundle, and the bundle of threads captures dirt and tongue coating more efficiently. The loop is elastic in its own right and is elastic and can maintain a standing posture at any time during use. Therefore, the feeling of contact in the oral cavity is extremely good, and the amount of dirt, bacteria and tongue coating captured is large. Further, when washed, the stains are well removed and the drying performance is good, which is also hygienic in this respect. Since the loop is composed of multiple bundle threads, it contains saliva and is soft and does not damage the oral cavity. Of course, the height of the loop is extremely small compared to the bristles of the brush, so it does not cause vomiting.

[0011] When the bundled yarn is a twisted yarn formed by twisting and when it is a twisted yarn that is not twisted, a feeling in use, dirt in the oral cavity, capture of bacteria and tongue coating on the tongue surface are captured. The amount and holding state are slightly different. Furthermore, when the bundle yarn is configured as an aggregate of two or more types of single yarns having different materials or thicknesses, the rigidity and elasticity of the loop of the single yarn can be changed according to the adhesion of dirt. It is possible.

When the bundle yarn is cut at or near the top of the loop, it has both the above-mentioned action as a loop and the action as a brush, but unlike a brush in a conventional toothbrush. , The length of the brush itself can be reduced. Moreover, in the case where a large number of bundled yarns are woven in a loop shape on the substrate, it is significantly different from the conventional toothbrush in that the brush-implanted portion is not required, and it is possible to obtain a tongue coating removal tool that also functions as an extremely thin oral cavity wall cleaning tool. I can.

【Example】

 Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described, but the present invention is not limited to this embodiment.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the first embodiment, and FIG. 2 is an explanatory view of the usage thereof. In this embodiment, a plurality of synthetic resin threads are bundled into a loop-shaped bundle thread 20, As an attachment means that can be woven innumerably on the cloth base 1 and can be attached to any pattern, an adhesive layer 3 is formed on the back surface of the cloth base 1, and a release paper 4 is provided on the surface of the adhesive layer 3. It is a tongue coating removal tool 5 that also serves as an oral cavity wall cleaning tool.

In the method of use of this embodiment, the release paper 4 of the tongue coating removal tool 5 is peeled off, and the handle portion of the toothbrush 6 is formed as an arbitrary handle on the surface of the adhesive layer 3 as shown in FIG. 2, for example. The back surface of 10 is used by being attached to the tip portion. In such an application example, there is an advantage that it can be used not only as the oral cavity wall cleaning tool and tongue coating removal tool 5 but also as the toothbrush 6.

In this embodiment, a plurality of tongue coating removal tools 5 can be formed on the same sheet, and each can be separated by a cutting line. In the use example of FIG. 2, the tongue coating remover 5 is attached to the back end of the handle 10 of the toothbrush 6, but it may be applied to the front end of the handle 10. The base 1 may be made of synthetic resin or the like other than cloth. It is also preferable to interpose an elastic foaming resin layer or the like between the substrate 1 and the adhesive layer 3 in order to softly hit the tongue coating removal tool 5 on the tongue surface.

Next, FIG. 3 is a plan view of the second embodiment, in which the area of the tip portion of the synthetic resin handle portion 13 of the thread tooth 8 is molded wide and a plurality of synthetic resin threads are formed therein. It is a tongue coating removal tool 5 that also functions as a cleaning tool for the inner wall of the oral cavity, which is formed by arranging innumerable bundles of loop-shaped bundled threads 20. That is, this embodiment is one in which a large number of loop-shaped bundled yarns 20 are planted in the base 1 portion at the tip of the handle 13 like a conventional toothbrush. The base 1 and the handle 13 may be integrally molded. Similarly, this embodiment may be applied to an interdental brush.

Next, FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the third embodiment, but this embodiment uses a tool for cleaning the inner wall of the oral cavity and a tool exclusively for removing tongue coating. The structure is such that a plurality of elastic cloth yarns are bundled and twisted together to form a loop-shaped twisted yarn 21, and the loop-shaped twisted yarns 21 are woven innumerably on the cloth base 1 and the tip of the handle 11 is formed. A tongue coating removal tool 50 that also functions as a cleaning tool for the inner wall of the oral cavity is formed by adhering to the part.

Since this embodiment is a tool for cleaning the inner wall of the oral cavity and a tool exclusively for removing tongue coating, it is extremely easy to use and is not limited to the upper and inner surfaces of the tongue, but also the side and back sides of the tongue, and the inner wall of the oral cavity. It is designed so that any cleaning can be done well. The synthetic resin handle 11 may be, for example, a plate-like body having elasticity of about 1 mm in thickness. That is, regarding the formation of the loop-shaped twisted yarn 21, the weaving method of the above-described second embodiment may be followed.

Next, FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the fourth embodiment, but this embodiment is a tool for cleaning the inner wall of the oral cavity and a tool exclusively for removing tongue coating, as in the third embodiment, and has the configuration. A plurality of synthetic resin yarns are bundled together and twisted to form a loop-shaped twisted yarn 21, and the loop-shaped twisted yarns 21 are woven innumerably on the fabric base 1 and attached to the tip portion of the synthetic resin tube 12. It is an oral cavity wall cleaning tool and tongue coating removal tool 51 which is wound 360 degrees and adhered. Since the tube 12 is hollow, the solid fragrance 7 such as mint can be inserted into the hollow portion of the tip end where the looped twisted yarn 21 is wound.

The third embodiment described above has been shown to be able to clean the side surface and the back side of the tongue very easily as its application, but there is no contact with the tip back part of the handle 11 made of synthetic resin. In order to do so, the structure of this embodiment is more preferable. Further, according to this configuration, since the loop-shaped twisted yarn 21 is wound around the tip portion of the tube 12 by 360 degrees, the tongue coating can be cleaned without worrying about the direction of the loop-shaped twisted yarn 21, and the tube 12 can be rotated. A method of cleaning can also be adopted. Incidentally, it is also preferable to cover the present embodiment with a cover made of a synthetic resin having good ventilation, and it is possible to attach the fragrance 7 to this cover side. Further, instead of a hollow body such as the tube 12, instead of a rod-shaped body, the tip portion is processed like a toothpick to remove the food waste clogged between the teeth, and then the inner wall of the oral cavity is cleaned and the tongue coating is removed. It is possible to do so.

In the present invention, the bundle yarn is formed in an infinite number in a loop on the base body, but the bundle yarn and the base body are basically arbitrary materials, and other than synthetic resin, It is possible to use a natural fiber or the like in which the loop does not lie down even when it is strongly wet, and the pattern regarding the planting or weaving of the loop on the substrate or other forming method is completely arbitrary.

In particular, regarding the loop formation pattern on the above-mentioned substrate, in addition to regularly arranging the loops one by one in one row, the loops may be slightly shifted for each row, or the rows may be overlapped, or at all. You are free to make it random. In order to capture tongue coating more efficiently, it is considered preferable to arrange the loops so that the loops are slightly shifted row by row. Alternatively, what is shown in FIG. 6 is such that when the loops 2 are formed on the substrate 1, the arrangement direction (arrangement angle) of the loops is changed every two rows. This arrangement angle is basically arbitrary, but as a result of various studies, in the case of an arrangement in the vicinity of about 45 degrees, better results can be obtained for the cleaning effect.

Further, it is also preferable to provide a bactericidal agent (disinfectant) or an odor adsorbent on the loop 2 and other parts of the present invention. It is also good to give loop 2 antibacterial treatment beforehand. It is also preferable to apply a disinfectant, a fragrance, or the like on the back side of the tip of the handle 11 of the third embodiment with respect to the side where the looped twisted yarn 21 is formed.

In the example in which the bundle yarn is configured as an aggregate of two or more types of single yarns having different materials or thicknesses, the rigidity and elasticity of the single yarn loop are changed according to the adhesion of dirt. In addition, the bundle thread is cut at or near the top of the loop (in this case, exactly two hooks face each other to form a loop, but basically the loop is In the above example, the action as a loop and the action as a brush can be combined, and in the case where the bundle yarns are woven in an infinite number in a loop on the base, the brush is planted. Unlike conventional toothbrushes, the structure does not require a brush planting part, and the brush itself and the handle can be made thinner.

[0026]

[Effect of device]

 As described above, the present invention aims to provide a tool for removing tongue coating that also serves as a rational and safe oral wall cleaning tool, and can be attached to an arbitrary pattern on a base body in which bundle threads are formed innumerably in a loop shape.

At this time, planting or weaving or other forming means is adopted for forming the loop-shaped body, and the bundle yarn is formed by twisting the bundle yarn or by not twisting the bundle yarn. A thread, a thread composed of two or more kinds of single threads having different materials or thicknesses, and a thread cut at or near the top of the loop can be arbitrarily adopted. .

With this configuration, the loop can easily capture dirt and bacteria accumulated between the gum and the inner wall of the oral cavity, and tongue coating adhered on the lingual surface, or the food residue attached to the tooth. It is also possible to clean nicotine / tar stains due to smoking adhered between the anterior teeth and gums and the inner wall of the oral cavity, and the bundle of threads forming the loop can more efficiently capture these contaminants. The loop has elasticity by itself, has a waist, can maintain a standing posture at any time during use, has a good feeling of contact in the oral cavity, and has good dirt removal during cleaning and good drying performance. It is hygienic, and the loop contains saliva and is soft and does not hurt the oral cavity. The height of the loop is so small that it does not cause vomiting.

As a result, according to the present invention, all the conventional problems are solved, it is hygienic as an object to be put in the mouth, the feeling in the oral cavity is soft, and the feeling of vomiting is not generated, and It was possible to provide a tongue coating removal brush that doubles as a cleaning tool for the inner wall of the oral cavity, which can reliably remove the tongue coating and other substances.
