TOOTH-BRUSH.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 4,, 1908.
Application filed July 8. 1907. Serial No. 382.787-
asiptic.
further object of the invention is to make a brush that will be adapted to be used by persons whose gums are too tender to use a bristle brush on, the rubbing surface of'this brush being made of any soft material, as for example s onge, felt or soft cloth.
In this invention the rubbing surface may be used for but one time if the person wishes, or it may be used for several tunes, but it is of such a nature that it may be renewed as often as the erson using the brush may desire, and in t 's way there is little danger of taking into the mouth on the brush germs which may lead to a serious sickness.
In the drawings ,in which like numerals of reference are applied to the same parts 1 is a side elevation of throughout, Figure 2 is an end elevation of the brush, and. Fig
I the head end of the brush.
' shell 2. This s ell 2 is open at the top for its The brush is rovided with the usual handle 1, the head eing made integral therewith and 'bein composed of a cylindrical entire length, and in the shell is inserted the rubbing fi er 3 which projects from the top my hand this 29 day of of the shell enough to make a soft rubbing body' for the teeth. This cylindrical shell is resilient material, and it has suflicient spring to hold the material tightly in its aWs, said material being forced into the same by the user of the brush when he wishes to use the same. The rubbing material may be taken out of the handle and the handle placed in boiling water to free it of any germs, the rubbing material is at hand almost any place and may be easily renewed at each using'of the brush, at the will of the person using the same. Sponge is a very suitable material to be used as the rubbing body for the reason that it swells up when wet and thus the handle holds it securely in place when being used.
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure b Letters Patent of the United States is as fol ows, the
. 'ght being reserved to such modifications as r1 fa lwithin the scope of the claims.
In a toothbrush, the combination of a head formedof thin resilient material andbeing cylindrical in shape and having a narrow slot from one end to the other, a soft material carried in the-head, and a handle integral with the head tudinally in line therefrom.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set June A. D. 1907, in
and extending longi- .made of celluloid, hard rubber or the like the presence of the two subscribing witnesses.
