Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a portable sanitary toothbrushing kit that can be carried in a handbag or pocket when going out.

Various proposals have been made regarding portable tooth filling kits, but few of these kits have been found to be satisfactory.

Many of the follow-up kits have extremely complex structures, making them impractical and expensive to manufacture. These types of kits have various complex passageways for draining toothpaste or powder from a toothpaste container of the type contained within the kit to the toothpaste portion of the kit. These devices are not useful because the toothpaste dries in the passages and blocks them after one use of the tooth pad. In other devices, a hollow space is provided to accommodate a separate dentifrice container. However, this requires a toothpaste container that can be passed through and received in a hollow cavity, resulting in additional expense and the need for special filling and packaging machinery. The present invention provides a toothpaste kit that eliminates the above-mentioned disadvantages.According to the present invention, a toothbrushing kit is provided which is detachably attached to one end of the main arm and the main body, and which covers the toothbrushing kit. A sleeve or cover that fits snugly around a part of the main part, a handle part that has a hollow part inside and is provided at the edge of the main part, and a toothpaste that is arranged to fit snugly in the hollow part. A toothpaste container, which is a container made of a flexible material and has a mouth and a cap at one end, from which toothpaste is pushed out onto the tooth bulges, and a closure at the other end, and which is disposed within the opening □. The expansion member has a cylindrical expansion member that expands the wall of the toothpaste container, or the expanded wall of the toothpaste container is pressed into the hollow part and comes into close contact with the hollow part, so that the toothpaste container cannot be used when not in use. A toothbrushing kit is provided in which the toothbrushing container is arranged such that the toothbrushing container is properly held within the hollow space.

More particularly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a dentifrice kit having the above-mentioned advantages, wherein the cylindrical expansion member is formed as a threaded collar for installation in the side wall of the dentifrice container, the collar having the above-mentioned advantages. The side wall is expanded to bring the toothpaste container into close contact with the hollow part. Furthermore, a closure plug is provided for closing the toothpaste container. The collar has an outwardly extending flange forming a threaded opening to prevent the toothpaste container from being inserted into the hollow part beyond a predetermined limit. The closure has a diameter sufficient to receive the mouth of a conventional toothpaste tube so that the toothpaste container can be refilled with toothpaste as needed. The novel features of the invention are set out in the claims.

The toothpaste kit according to the present invention and its advantages in use will be explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Referring to FIG. 1, a dentifrice kit according to the present invention includes a main body 10 having a tubular handle 12 in which an inner hollow portion 14 is provided.

A neck portion 16 is provided at the upper end of the net portion 10, and the neck portion 16 extends upward.

The capital 16 has a projection 18 offset with respect to the central axis of the main thorax 10 (FIG. 2). The tooth bulge 20 has a generally conically enlarged end shaft 22 with a recess 24 formed therein for receiving the protrusion 18 therethrough.
The protrusion 18 only needs to have a shape that allows it to be firmly fixed in place and removed from the recess by applying force. By forming the tooth pad in this manner, it can be discarded when the tooth pad is worn out. Since this toothpump is a standard type that is typically used as an electric toothpaste, it can be easily obtained at a store when replacing the toothpump. A tubular protective sleeve 26 is placed over the tooth pad 20 and fits snugly around the main body 10 so that the tooth pad 20 is not in use.
is protected by sleeve 26.

A toothpaste container 28 made of flexible plastic is placed within the hollow portion 14 of the handle 12.

The upper end of the container 28 is provided with an externally threaded mouth 30 and a conventional internally threaded closure cap 32. Therefore, when the paste toothpaste in the container 28 is removed, the cap 32 is removed and the container 28, that is, the tube is pressed, and the toothpaste is forced out through the mouth portion 32. A collar 34 having an outer diameter larger than the inner diameter of the container 28 is inserted into the lower end of the container 28, and the collar 34 is fixed by a suitable method, such as by solvent, ultrasonic welding, or an equivalent method. Ru.

Collar 34 is large enough to slightly swell or expand the flexible material of the container, so that container 28
The area 4 is in close contact with the hollow turtle 4. color 34
has a sekiguchi 36 which is threaded on the inside, and the sekiguchi 36
is large enough to accommodate the outlet of a typical tube toothpaste (not shown). Therefore, the container 28 can be easily filled repeatedly with toothpaste from a regular tube toothpaste at home. A closure plug 38 is formed to close the lower end of the container 28. Since the obturator 38 is threaded on its outer periphery, the obturator 38 can be threadedly engaged with the inner threads of the collar 34. It is desirable that the occluding plug 38 has an uneven edge so that it can be rotated or removed. If necessary, a compressible sealing member such as a rubber ring may be provided to prevent toothpaste from flowing out of the plug 38 so that the portion is dissolvable. To prevent the toothpaste container 28 from being over-inserted into the hollow portion 14, a stop is preferably provided. In the case of the present invention, the stop extends outwardly from the collar 34 to the handle 1.
2 includes a flange or rim 40 arranged to engage the lower end of the 2. Providing the rim 40 in this way prevents the container 28 from being inserted excessively into the hollow portion 14 and damaging the container 28 or preventing the bran toothpaste from leaking out.
The method of using the toothpaste set of the present invention is self-evident.

If you wish to use a toothpaste, remove the sleeve from one end of the main body 10 and insert the toothpaste container 228 from the other end.
Remove. Next, the cap 32 is removed and a small amount of paste toothpaste is pushed out from the mouth part 30 onto the toothbrush. The cap is then reattached to the container, and the container is reinserted into the hollow part 14. When filling the toothpaste container 28 with toothpaste, it is sufficient to simply remove the closure, insert the outlet of a conventional tube toothpaste into the closure, and fill the container 28 with paste toothpaste. After filling, the closure plug is tightly screwed onto the collar 34 again. Therefore, according to the present invention, since it is possible to use a replaceable standard toothbrush that is already commercially available, the toothbrush can be replaced as necessary.

Furthermore, since a refillable toothpaste container is used according to the present invention, the user can use the toothpaste according to his/her preference.
You no longer have to use only toothpaste that comes in a specific type of tube. Due to the offset position of the protrusion 18 with respect to the central axis of the main chest, the toothbrush is also placed offset to one side with respect to the central axis of the main chest, thereby making it possible to considerably reduce the overall size of the toothpaste set. It becomes possible.

In another embodiment of the toothbrushing set of the present invention, the occluding stopper 38
and a blocking plug 38a is used instead of the collar 34 (fourth
(see figure).

The plug 38a is coupled to the lower end of the tube 28 by welding or the like. In this case, tube 28 is disposable, but toothpaste can be poured into the tube through spout 30 using a suitable device, such as a filling tube screw (not shown) that can be attached to a regular toothpaste tube. It could also be refilled. The obturator 38a acts to force the lower end of the tube 28 apart so that the obturator 38a aligns snugly against the handle 12. The above description merely illustrates preferred embodiments of the invention.

Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described above, and various modifications to the present invention are, of course, within the scope of the claims.
