Abstract

The present invention relates to a toothbrush that incorporates, in the structure thereof, toothpaste for a single use. The external appearance of the invention is that of a folded toothbrush. The bristles are on the handle and connected thereto by a resistant, but malleable, piece of material, the impelling cylinder, which on the handle side is fixed. At the base of the bristles, there is a hollow reservoir containing the paste and connected to the impeller cylinder by means of a sliding stop that will act as a push device to enable the paste to emerge at the base of the bristles by means of one or more hollows therein. The method for extracting the paste is mechanical and comprises simply the movement of opening out the brush. When the bristles are opened out and placed in a horizontal line with the handle, the impeller cylinder will likewise be opened out, the sliding stop being pushed and, in turn, pushing the toothpaste towards the base of the bristles (where the paste-exit holes are located).

Description

CEPILLO DE DIENTES DESECHABLE CON CREMA DENTAL INCORPORADA DISPOSABLE TOOTHBRUSH WITH INCORPORATED DENTAL CREAM
OBJETO DE LA INVENCIÓNOBJECT OF THE INVENTION
La presente invención, según se expresa en el enunciado de esta memoria descriptiva, se refiere a un cepillo de dientes que lleva incorporado en su estructura la crema dental para un solo uso, es decir, es desechable. Se trata de unir en uno ambos componentes de higiene bucal, por una parte; y por otra, de ofrecer la máxima esterilidad (al ser de un solo uso) a un elemento de limpieza que entra en contacto directo con una zona tan sensible a la entrada de organismos extraños en el cuerpo humano como es la boca. Aporta además la utilidad añadida de posibilitar la limpieza dental cuando el usuario no se encuentra en su hogar y no tiene a mano su propio cepillo.The present invention, as expressed in the statement of this specification, refers to a toothbrush that incorporates toothpaste incorporated into its structure for single use, that is, is disposable. It is about uniting both components of oral hygiene, on the one hand; and on the other, to offer maximum sterility (being a single use) to a cleaning element that comes into direct contact with an area as sensitive to the entry of foreign organisms into the human body as is the mouth. It also provides the added utility of enabling dental cleaning when the user is not at home and does not have his own brush at hand.
ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓNBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Se conocen otros sistemas de cepillos de dientes que contienen crema dental en su interior, pero en ninguno de ellos resulta tan sencilla su extracción, ya que con el sistema aquí descrito basta un ligero movimiento para empujar la pasta a las cerdas. DESCRIPCIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓNOther toothbrush systems that contain toothpaste are known inside, but none of them is so easy to extract, since with the system described here, a slight movement is enough to push the paste into the bristles. DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Para que la presente explicación sea más clara, dividiremos virtualmente el cepillo en dos partes: cerdas y mango. El aspecto exterior de la invención es la de un cepillo de dientes plegado. Las cerdas se encuentran sobre el mango, éste tiene un contenedor en su base superior que lo posibilita, (5) y unidas al mismo por una pieza de material resistente pero maleable, que denominaremos cilindro impulsor (1), y que en el lado del mango se encuentra fijo (2). En la base de las cerdas hay un depósito hueco que contiene la pasta (3) y que está unido al cilindro impulsor por medio de un tope deslizante (4) que actuará como empuje para que la pasta salga a la base de las cerdas (6) mediante uno o varios huecos en la misma.To make this explanation clearer, we will virtually divide the brush into two parts: bristles and handle. The external aspect of the invention is that of a folded toothbrush. The bristles are on the handle, it has a container in its upper base that makes it possible, (5) and attached to it by a piece of resistant but malleable material, which we will call the driving cylinder (1), and that on the side of the handle is fixed (2). At the base of the bristles there is a hollow tank that contains the paste (3) and that is attached to the impeller cylinder by means of a sliding stop (4) that will act as a push so that the paste leaves the base of the bristles (6 ) by one or several holes in it.
El modo de extraer la crema es mecánico, y se reduce al simple movimiento de estirar el cepillo, no necesita, por tanto, de ningún mecanismo externo. Este movimiento se puede hacer con una mano (agarrando las cerdas) mientras se sujeta el mango con la otra. Al estirar las cerdas y ponerlas en línea horizontal con el mango, el cilindro impulsor (1) se estirará también, empujando el tope deslizante (4) que a su vez empuja la pasta dental hacia la base de las cerdas (6) (donde se encuentran las salidas de la crema).The way to extract the cream is mechanical, and it is reduced to the simple movement of stretching the brush, therefore, it does not need any external mechanism. This movement can be done with one hand (grabbing the bristles) while holding the handle with the other. By stretching the bristles and putting them in a horizontal line with the handle, the drive cylinder (1) will also stretch, pushing the sliding stop (4) which in turn pushes the toothpaste towards the base of the bristles (6) (where they find the cream exits).
Por otra parte, el mango puede tener una o varias piezas de material blando pero firme en el contenedor, alineadas con las salidas del dentífrico, qμe con un movimiento hacia las mismas de las cerdas, rompan el precinto de seguridad (7) que impide que por efecto de la gravedad el dentífrico salga al exterior antes de su uso. Así, las características de está invención son:On the other hand, the handle can have one or several pieces of soft but firm material in the container, aligned with the dentifrice outlets, which with a movement towards them of the bristles, break the safety seal (7) that prevents the dentifrice from going outside before being used due to gravity. Thus, the characteristics of this invention are:
1. No necesita más qμe un ligero movimiento para empujar la pasta a las cerdas, sin necesidad de ningún mecanismo que puede resultar engorroso, o fallar.1. It does not need more than a slight movement to push the paste to the bristles, without the need for any mechanism that can be cumbersome, or fail.
2. Es un cepillo desechable y de un solo uso, incluyendo una sola dosis de dentífrico, lo cual aporta un nivel de higiene y esterilidad extra, que viene dado también por la protección previa al uso qμe aporta el contenedor de las cerdas.2. It is a disposable and single-use brush, including a single dose of toothpaste, which provides a level of hygiene and extra sterility, which is also given by the pre-use protection provided by the bristle container.
3. El hecho de que sea un cepillo desechable y de un solo uso aporta, en sí mismo, la mejora de utilizarlo fuera del hogar.3. The fact that it is a disposable and single-use brush brings, in itself, the improvement of using it outside the home.
