Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to a vibrating toothbrush. And more particularly to a vibrating toothbrush having a threaded coupling structure that connects a toothbrush head to a vibrating toothbrush body and transmits vibrations from the vibrating toothbrush body to a toothbrush head.
2. Description of the Related Art Generally, a vibrating toothbrush is a mechanism that cleans teeth by vibrating bristles that receive vibration power as the vibration motor provided therein oscillates. Such a vibrating toothbrush includes a toothbrush head portion in which bristles are planted and a toothbrush body that can be held by a user, and a vibration motor and a battery are mounted on the toothbrush body. That is, in the case of a vibrating toothbrush having the above-described structure, a storage portion is provided in the toothbrush body for easy storage of the vibration motor and the battery.
On the other hand, since the battery is typically circular or cylinder-shaped, the toothbrush body has an internal structure of a shape corresponding to the battery for accommodating the battery therein. At this time, the toothbrush body is provided with a switch which is operated to selectively supply power to the vibration motor.
In order to reduce the cost of the user, the vibration toothbrush has been developed in order to facilitate the replacement of the toothbrush head and the battery as described above.
The conventional technique as described above includes the 'Vibration toothbrush' of Korean Utility Model No. 20-0418868.
1, the vibration toothbrush is capable of preventing the
The above-described coupling structure requires a plurality of manufacturing steps due to the complexity of the coupling structure when manufacturing the
In addition, the joining structure using the
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above problems of the prior art and it is an object of the present invention to provide a toothbrush body having a screw connection structure that minimizes the possibility of fatigue fracture by minimizing fatigue accumulation due to a radial impact while maintaining the connection between the toothbrush head portion and the toothbrush body And to provide a vibrating toothbrush.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a vibrating toothbrush having a screw-coupling structure that enables cost reduction through a simple manufacturing process.
According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a portable terminal comprising: a lower cap having a receiving space formed therein, a receiving space formed in the receiving space, and a first female threaded portion having an inner diameter formed therein; And a second female screw portion having an insertion groove and a thread formed on an inner diameter of the insertion groove; And a connecting member having a connecting member body and a connecting member having a first male thread portion and a second male thread portion protruding from both side ends in the longitudinal direction of the connecting member body and formed with threads on the outer circumferential surface, Wherein the first threaded portion and the second threaded portion are fastened together in a threaded manner.
Here, the axial cross section of the thread is a right-angled triangle in which an oblique surface is formed in a direction opposite to the insertion direction of the first male thread portion or the second female thread portion.
The tooth surface may include a vertical surface formed vertically from the oblique surface and the vertical surface when the lower cap or the toothbrush head portion and the connecting member are separated from each other. And the second female screw portion is supported so as to be prevented from being detached.
And an engaging groove formed at a side edge of the lower cap and the toothbrush head in a coupling direction, respectively; And a latching protrusion formed on both side edges of the connecting member so as to be engaged with the latching groove when the lower cap and the toothbrush head unit are coupled with the connecting member.
And a tooth protrusion formed to protrude from a side end of the threaded tooth formed on an inner circumferential surface of each of the lower cap and the toothbrush head, And a fitting groove formed on an outer circumferential surface of the connecting member so as to cooperate with the fitting protrusion.
In the vibrating toothbrush having the above-described structure according to the present invention, when a force is applied in a direction in which the lower cap or the toothbrush head part and the connecting member are separated from each other, Or the second female screw portion can be prevented from being detached.
In addition, since it is fastened in a threaded manner, durability against fatigue fracture due to radial force externally applied can be improved.
