Definitions

  • the mat preferably provides the grip enhancing surfaces on at least the front and back of the handle or at at least two locations on the front or the back of the handle or at least one location at the front or back of the handle and at at least one side of the handle.
  • the mat provides grip enhancing surfaces at three or four separate locations on the handle.
  • the grip enhancing surfaces of the mat may also afford grip enhancing configurations, for example ribs, preferably inclined diagonally to the handle.
  • a toothbrush handle having a head portion carrying or adapted to carry a bristle configuration is characterised in that the handle has grip enhancing configurations on at least two separate locations of the handle.
  • Figure 2 is a plan view of the embodiment of Figure 1 from the bristle side
  • the four embodiments embody a number of separate and separately usable aspects including that of having the teeth engaging ends of the bristles not lying in a plane parallel to the surface of the handle in which the bristles are embedded and the teeth engaging ends of at least a proportion of the bristles lying adjacent to each other occupying a curved plane when the toothbrush is viewed in side elevation. All four embodiments show this aspect.
  • the group 95 affords a teeth engaging surface 97 which is closely similar in profile to the surface 57.
  • the group 95 has a first row of five tufts 98, a second row of four tufts 99 and two side tufts 100 and 101 and a central rear tuft 102.
  • the tufts 98 are shorter than the tufts in row 82, but the tufts in row 99 are about the same height as those in row 82.
  • the teeth engaging surface afforded by the bristles as whole is thus wavy or sinusoidal but is not a continuous surface having breaks in level between the end tufts of adjacent groups, i.e. 63, 68, 66 of group 55 and row 78 of group 75 and row 82 of group 75 and row 98 of group 95.
  • the tufts in the group 195 and in the array 175-184 can all be of the same length so that only a single curved surface is provided, namely by the bristles 158 to 171 and 172 and 173.
  • the outer bristles namely tufts 161 and 168 are longer than tufts 175 and 176; tufts 160 and 169 are longer than tufts 177 and 178; tufts 159 and 170 are longer than tufts 179-181; and tufts 158 and 171 are longer than tufts 182-184.
  • tufts 363, 365 and 364 are the same height and are slightly longer than the tufts in the rows 400, 420, 440 and 460.
  • the ratio of the heights of these tufts 363, 364, 365 to the longer rows 400 etc is 1.04:1 or more broadly 1.02:1 to 1.3:1; whilst their ratio to the shorter rows 380, 410 etc. is 1.2:1 or more broadly 1.1:1 to 1.5:1.
  • Figures 31 and 32 are views similar to Figures 6 and 7 but showing the bristle configuration of a first modification of the embodiment of Figure 25.
  • the group 355 has a pair of transversely disposed tufts 361 and 363 and three transversely disposed tufts 363, 364 and 365.
  • the ratio of the heights of these bristles in the tufts 361, 365 to the longer rows 400 etc is 1.14:1 or more broadly 1.04:1 to 1.4:1; whilst their ratio to the shorter rows 380, 410 etc. is 1.28:1 or more broadly 1.2:1 to 1.6:1.
  • the bristles 361, 362, 363, 364, 372, 373 and 374 form a four sided figure.
  • the height of the highest bristles in the tufts 361 - 365 close to the head end of the bristle configuration is 3.2 units when measured in a direction perpendicular to the_surface 46.
  • the height of the bristles in the tufts 380 is 2.9 units when measured in a direction perpendicular to the surface 46.
