Character member for identifying toothbrush {Character Member For Identifying Toothbrush}

The present invention relates to a character member for identification of the toothbrush, and more particularly, to provide a character member having a unique shape and detachably mounted to the handle portion of the toothbrush to enable identification of each user.

Healthy and clean teeth are essential to modern society, and in order to maintain these teeth, modern people generally brush their teeth with a toothbrush at least once a day. In view of personal habits and personal relationships, many people brush their teeth regularly after meals, not only at home, but also in groups such as offices or factories.

In households with two or more people, the toothbrushes of family members are usually stored together in the bathroom sink. In the case of offices or factories, the number of members is much higher and the number of washing places is used much more. Therefore, an individual stores a toothbrush and takes it to a washing place to brush teeth.

To brush your teeth with the primary purpose of cleanliness is not to mix toothbrushes with others. However, due to the structural features of the small toothbrush, which consists of a tofu with raised hair and a handle used to hold the toothbrush, the method for self-identification is not easy. Moreover, it is very difficult to identify the toothbrush as a type of product because the types of products are limited and it is common to purchase toothbrushes of family members at once, especially at home.

On the other hand, in a place such as an office or a factory is generally separated from the work place and washing place, carrying a toothbrush for brushing teeth is not only inconvenient, but also unfavorable in terms of working environment.

Therefore, the present invention aims to solve these problems of the prior art and technical problems that have been requested from the past.

That is, an object of the present invention is to provide a toothbrush mounting character member which can be easily mounted on a toothbrush and can be easily distinguished from the toothbrush of another person by the shape of various characters desired by the user.

First, one example of a conventional toothbrush is shown in side view in FIG. Toothbrush 100 is basically composed of a head portion 120 is raised to the head 110 and the handle portion 130 formed integrally therewith. In order to prevent slipping during brushing of the front, rear, left and right reciprocating motions, the handle 130 may be attached with a non-slip member 140 having a large coefficient of friction in some cases. In addition, a structure for preventing slipping by roughening both surfaces of the handle 130 is also widely used. In addition, as shown in Figure 1, by forming a flexible bent portion 160 in the connection portion 150 between the head 120 and the handle portion 130 requiring elasticity has also been developed a structure to facilitate brushing more easily. . However, as described above, due to the simple structure of the toothbrush 100, it is difficult to install accessories for discriminating from others. In addition, there is a disadvantage in that it is difficult to install a separate identification member due to the shape and size of the various handle 130 for each product.

2 is a perspective view of a toothbrush mounting character member 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Character member 200 of the present invention is the mounting portion 210 is inserted into the end of the handle portion 130 of the toothbrush 100, the protrusion 220 is integrally formed in the mounting portion 210, and the protrusion 220 Is fastened to the) is composed of a character unit 230 to express a unique shape.

Mounting unit 210 is configured in a resilient form, it can be easily mounted and fixed to the end of the handle 130 having a variety of sizes and shapes for each product. In addition, it is configured to be removable so that it is possible to remove and install according to the user's intention. The mounting portion 210 can be a variety of structures, looking at a specific example as follows.

First, in FIG. 2, the mounting portion 210 is formed integrally with the protrusion 220, and is composed of a cylindrical main body 212 protruding convexly and an insertion part 214 recessed into the main body 212. And the insertion portion 214 is made of a resilient material. The elastic material is, for example, ethylene-propylene diene monomer rubber (EPDM), natural rubber (NR), styrene-butylene rubber (SBR), butadiene rubber (BR), chloroprene rubber (CR), nitrile-butadiene Rubber (NBR), fluororubber, acrylic rubber, silicone rubber, butyl rubber and the like. The end 216 of the insert 214 is slightly open so that the end of the handle 130 can be easily inserted.

Another possible specific example is shown in FIG. 3, wherein the mounting portion 210 ′ is formed as a cylindrical body 212 ′ integrally with the protrusion 220 and an insertion protrusion 218 on the cylindrical inner surface of the body 212 ′. ) Is formed. The insertion projection 128 is inclined so that the shape of the projection toward the rear, the handle 130 is easy to insert, but is configured to be difficult to be separated. In addition, the insertion protrusion 128 is made of a resilient material as in the above-described example, and unlike the cylindrical body 212 ′ having a fixed diameter, the insertion protrusion 128 may vary according to the shape and size of the handle 130.

On the other hand, the protrusion 220 serves to connect the mounting portion 210 to the character portion 230, it may be simply a cylindrical shape or a shape that implements a variety of shapes and / or shapes on the surface. In some cases, the inside of the handle 130 may be empty so that a part of the handle 130 may be introduced. As shown in FIG. 3, the upper end of the protrusion 220 is formed with a fastening fixing part 222 having a larger diameter so that the character part 230 can be fixed. The protrusion 220 may be a resilient material such as the mounting portion 210 or may be a rigid material. Preferably, it is easy to mold and is made of a light and cheap polymer resin, and examples thereof include polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), polycarbonate (PC), acryl-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS) and the like. Although it may be mentioned, it is not limited to this.

Returning to FIG. 2, the character unit 230 is an element that serves to provide characteristics of the toothbrush 100 that can be distinguished from other toothbrushes, and may be implemented in various forms. That is, a cartoon character, an entertainer / athlete character, an abstract character embodying the characteristics of a family member, etc. may be possible, and in some cases, a unique character of an actual user may be implemented. The family member character is a character expressed by abstractly representing the members of the family as grandfather, grandmother, father, mother, son, daughter, etc., so that it is easy to recognize who represents the family members at one time.

Character member 200 is mounted on the end of the handle portion 130 does not interfere with the use at all. In addition, the pubic hair 110 is located on the opposite side of the sprouting head 120, there is no problem in hygiene. In the state attached to the toothbrush 100, the insertion portion 214 of the mounting portion 210 is stretched in accordance with the size of the handle 130, so it is hardly distinguished from the cylindrical body 212.

5 is a side view of the toothbrush 100 mounted with the character member 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention over the toothbrush pole 300 and a partially enlarged view thereof. Toothbrush 100 is generally hung on the toothbrush pole 300 so that the pulp 110 is directed upward, when using the character member 200 of the present invention, it is also possible to hang using the character member 200. To this end, the catching hole 240 is perforated in the rear of the character member 200, it may be hooked so that it can be inserted into the hook 310 protruding from the toothbrush pole (300). In order to prevent the character member 200 from being easily detached in the locked state, the end portion 312 of the hook may be bent upwardly. However, the above hook method is only an example, and a plurality of hooks 310 are arranged on the side of the toothbrush 300 at a predetermined distance, and the method is hung by hanging the character member 200 in such a gap.
