Especially when brushing, if the neck part bends, the flocked part is displaced from the normal position to the back side of the head part (that is, away from the teeth and gums), and the force applied to the handle part is the flocked part. It becomes difficult to be transmitted sufficiently. As a result, it has been found that the operability of the handle portion is significantly lowered.
- the handle portion 14 side of the handle body 15 is bent closer to the flocked portion 11 side than the plane P constituting the flocked surface 12a, like the above-described toothbrush 1 of the present embodiment, Furthermore, it has been conceived that if the parameters such as the angle ⁇ formed by the straight line N and the plane P are optimized, the deflection of the head portion 12 and the neck portion 13 can be offset by the bending of the handle body 15.

FIG. 2 is a front view of the toothbrush.
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the
[ヘッド部の厚さt]
ヘッド部12の厚さtは、薄い程、口腔内操作性を高めることができるが、薄すぎると、ヘッド部12の強度が不十分になりやすい。このため、ヘッド部12の厚さtは、ハンドル体15の構成材料、曲げ弾性率等を勘案して決定できる。ヘッド部12の厚さtは、2.0mm~4.0mmの範囲に設定される。ヘッド部12の厚さtは、2.5mm~3.5mm程度であることがより好ましい。 Hereinafter, the characteristic design parameter in the
[Head thickness t]
The thinner the thickness t of the
ネック部13の最小幅W1は、小さい程、口腔内操作性を高めることができるが、小さすぎると、ネック部13の強度が不十分になりやすい。このため、ネック部13の最小幅W1は、ハンドル体15の構成材料、曲げ弾性率などを勘案して決定できる。ネック部13の最小幅W1は、3.0mm~4.5mmに設定される。ネック部13の最小幅W1は、3.5mm~4.3mm程度であることがより好ましい。 [Minimum width W1 at the neck]
The smaller the minimum width W1 of the
ネック部13の最小厚さD1は、X軸方向においてネック部13の幅が最小となる位置のネック部13の厚さとして規定することができる。すなわち、本実施形態の歯ブラシ1においては、ネック部13の延在方向に直交する断面の形状が略円形であり、X軸方向においてネック部13の幅が最小となる位置と厚さが最小となる位置とは一致する。ただし、ネック部13の延在方向に直交する断面の形状は、必ずしも円形でなくてもよく、例えば多角形状であってもよい。また、ネック部13の延在方向に直交する断面の形状は、X軸方向の位置により異なっていてもよく、ネック部13の幅が最小となる位置と厚さが最小となる位置とは必ずしも一致していなくてもよい。 [Minimum thickness D1 of neck]
The minimum thickness D1 of the
ヘッド部12の基端(ネック部13とヘッド部12との境界位置K1)から指当て部19の先端(ネック部13とハンドル部14との境界K2)間の距離aは、大きい程、植毛部11が口腔内の奥まで届き、口腔内の隅々まで清掃効果を高めることができる反面、ネック部13の撓みが大きくなる。一方、距離aは、小さい程、ネック部13の撓みを小さくできるが、植毛部11が口腔内の奥まで届きにくくなる。そこで、距離aは、ハンドル体15の構成材料、曲げ弾性率等の条件にも依るが、例えば25mm~70mm程度に設定される。 [Distance a between head base end and finger rest tip a]
The greater the distance a between the proximal end of the head portion 12 (boundary position K1 between the

ヘッド部の撓み量Aは、以下の方法(α)により測定される。
方法(α):
ヘッド部の植毛面を鉛直方向の上に向け、歯ブラシのヘッド部とネック部との境界P1の位置を固定した状態におけるハンドル体の先端の高さを基準高さとする。さらに、前記境界P1の位置を固定した状態で、ヘッド部における、植毛部の長軸方向の長さに対して植毛部の先端から10±3%の位置に200gの錘を吊り下げ、10秒後のハンドル体の先端の基準高さからの高さの変位量(単位はmm)をヘッド部の撓み量Aとする。
なお、「植毛部の長軸方向の長さ」とは、ヘッド部を平面視したときの最も先端側に位置する植毛穴の先端と、最も後端側に位置する植毛穴の後端との距離を意味する。 (Head deflection A)
The deflection amount A of the head part is measured by the following method (α).
Method (α):
The height of the tip of the handle body in a state in which the position of the boundary P1 between the head portion and the neck portion of the toothbrush is fixed with the flocked surface of the head portion facing upward is taken as the reference height. Further, with the position of the boundary P1 fixed, a weight of 200 g is suspended at a position of 10 ± 3% from the tip of the flocked portion with respect to the length in the major axis direction of the flocked portion in the head portion for 10 seconds. The amount of displacement (unit: mm) of the height of the rear end of the handle body from the reference height is defined as a deflection amount A of the head portion.
The “length in the major axis direction of the flocked portion” refers to the tip of the flocked hole located on the most distal side when the head portion is viewed in plan and the rear end of the flocked hole located on the most rear end side. Means distance.
ヘッド部22は、平面視において、先端29からネック部24に向かうに従い幅方向に広がり、次いで同等の幅で延び、次いで幅方向に狭まり、ネック部24との境界P1に至るものである。ネック部24は、境界P1からハンドル部26に向かい略同一径で延び、次いで拡径して、ハンドル部26との境界P2に至るものである。 This will be described more specifically with reference to the
In plan view, the
なお、例えば、ヘッド部とネック部が同じ幅で形成された歯ブラシのように、前記境界P1の位置の特定が困難な場合がある。この場合には、長さL1に対して、ハンドル体210の先端29から17.5%の位置(例えば、長さL1が180mmの場合、ハンドル体210の先端29から31.5mmの位置)を境界P1とする。 The boundary P1 in the
In addition, for example, like the toothbrush in which the head portion and the neck portion are formed with the same width, it may be difficult to specify the position of the boundary P1. In this case, a position 17.5% from the
図4Aに示すように、歯ブラシ21を、植毛面220が鉛直方向の上を向くようにして、ネック部最細部の位置(境界P1)の位置で治具2100を用いて固定する。この際、ハンドル体210の先端29の高さを基準高さH0とする。
次いで、図4Bに示すように、200gの錘2102を、Sの位置に吊り下げ、10秒後のハンドル体210の先端29の高さを測定し、その高さをH1とする。前記Sは、ヘッド部22における、植毛部の長軸方向の長さL4(図3A)に対して、植毛部先端から10±3%の位置である。例えば植毛部が19mmの場合、Sは植毛部先端から2.0mmの位置である。
次いで、H1とH0との差の絶対値をa(単位はmm)として求める。前記aは例えばハイトゲージ等で測定される。測定は室温25±3℃で行う。
上記測定を5回行い、上記変位量aの平均値をヘッド部22の撓み量Aとする。 The deflection amount A of the
As shown in FIG. 4A, the
Then, as shown in FIG. 4B, a
Next, the absolute value of the difference between H 1 and H 0 is obtained as a (unit is mm). The a is measured by, for example, a height gauge. The measurement is performed at room temperature 25 ± 3 ° C.
The measurement is performed five times, and the average value of the displacement amount a is defined as the deflection amount A of the
なお、撓み量Aは、ヘッド部の材質(つまりハンドル体の材質)の曲げ弾性率やヘッド部の厚さ、幅等を調整することで調整される。 The deflection amount A is preferably 0.4 to 3.0, more preferably 0.4 to 2.5, and still more preferably 0.4 to 2.0. The deflection amount A is preferably 0.5 to 3.0, more preferably 0.5 to 2.5, and further preferably 0.5 to 2.0. When the amount of deflection A is in the above range, the
The deflection amount A is adjusted by adjusting the bending elastic modulus of the material of the head part (that is, the material of the handle body), the thickness, width, etc. of the head part.
ネック部の撓み量Bは、以下の方法(β)により測定される。
方法(β):
ヘッド部の植毛面を鉛直方向の上に向け、歯ブラシのネック部とハンドル部との境界の位置を固定した状態におけるハンドル体の先端の高さを基準高さとする。前記固定した状態においてさらにヘッド部における、植毛部の長軸方向の長さに対して植毛部の先端から50±3%の位置に200gの錘を吊り下げ、10秒後のハンドル体の先端の前記基準高さからの高さの変位量(単位はmm)をネック部の撓み量Bとする。 (Bend amount of neck part B)
The amount of deflection B of the neck portion is measured by the following method (β).
Method (β):
The height of the tip of the handle body in a state where the flocked surface of the head portion is directed vertically upward and the boundary position between the neck portion and the handle portion of the toothbrush is fixed is defined as the reference height. In the fixed state, a weight of 200 g is suspended at a position of 50 ± 3% from the tip of the flocked portion with respect to the length in the major axis direction of the flocked portion in the head portion, and the tip of the handle body after 10 seconds is suspended. A displacement amount (unit: mm) of the height from the reference height is defined as a deflection amount B of the neck portion.
なお、ネック部とハンドル部が同じ幅で形成された歯ブラシのように、前記境界P2の位置の特定が困難な場合がある。この場合には、長さL1に対して、ハンドル体210の先端29から42.2%の位置(例えば、長さL1が180mmの場合、ハンドル体210の先端29から76.0mmの位置)を境界P2とする。 The boundary P2 between the neck portion and the handle portion is an end point of the diameter expansion of the neck portion, that is, a curved line forming both ends of the straight line forming both edges of the widening portion or both edges of the widening portion in plan view. This is the position where the direction changes. If it is FIG. 3A, it is a position which changes from the straight line or curve R2 which forms the both edges of the part which the width | variety in a neck part spreads in the planar view of a neck part and a handle | steering-wheel part to the curve which becomes narrow gradually.
It may be difficult to specify the position of the boundary P2 like a toothbrush in which the neck portion and the handle portion are formed with the same width. In this case, the position of 42.2% from the
ネック部24の撓み量Bの測定において、歯ブラシ21を治具2100で固定する位置は、境界P2である。また、Sは、植毛部の長軸方向の長さに対して、植毛部先端から50±3%の位置である。例えば植毛部が19mmの場合、Sは先端から9.5mmの位置である。
そして、ヘッド部の撓み量Aの測定方法と同様に、錘2102を吊り下げる前の基準高さH0と、錘2102を吊り下げて10秒経過後の高さH1との差の絶対値(単位はmm)を求める。測定は室温25±3℃で行う。この測定を5回行い、その平均値をネック部24の撓み量Bとする。 The deflection amount B of the
In the measurement of the deflection amount B of the
Similarly to the method of measuring the deflection amount A of the head portion, the absolute value of the difference between the reference height H 0 before the
なお、撓み量Bは、ネック部の材質(つまりハンドル体の材質)の曲げ弾性率やネック部の最小径、境界P2の断面形状等を調整することで調整される。 The deflection amount B is preferably 2.1 to 5.0, more preferably 2.3 to 4.5, and even more preferably 2.5 to 4.0. When the bending amount B is in the above range, the neck portion is appropriately bent, an appropriate cushioning property is expressed, and the contact comfort of the flocked portion against the gum is further improved. Moreover, if the amount of deflection B is equal to or greater than the lower limit, the hair can reach all corners of the oral cavity such as the back of the back teeth, and the cleaning power in the oral cavity is further enhanced. Furthermore, the penetration property of the hair to a periodontal pocket improves and the cleaning power of a periodontal pocket is improved more. It becomes easy to suppress that the intensity | strength of a neck part falls that the deflection | deviation amount B is below the said upper limit. Furthermore, the
The bending amount B is adjusted by adjusting the bending elastic modulus of the neck portion material (that is, the handle body material), the minimum diameter of the neck portion, the cross-sectional shape of the boundary P2, and the like.
また、撓み量Aと撓み量Bとの差(B-A)は、1以上が好ましく、1.5以上が好ましく、2以上がさらに好ましい。(B-A)が前記下限値以上であると、ヘッド部22に対してネック部24の撓み量を大きく保て、クッション性が高められ歯肉に対する当たり心地が良好となり、使用者が歯肉へのマッサージ効果を実感しやすくなる。
また、(B-A)は、4以下が好ましく、3以下がより好ましい。(B-A)が前記上限値以下であると、ヘッド部22に対してネック部24の撓み量が大きくなりすぎず、口腔内での操作性が高められやすくなる。さらに、使用者が歯ブラシ21を使用した際に軟弱と感じるのを抑制しやすくなる。
(B-A)は、1~4が好ましく、1~3がより好ましい。
また、撓み量Bと撓み量Aの比(B/A)は、1.5~5.0が好ましく、1.8~4.8がより好ましい。 The deflection amount A and the deflection amount B are preferably A <B. When A <B, the operability of the
Further, the difference (BA) between the deflection amount A and the deflection amount B is preferably 1 or more, preferably 1.5 or more, and more preferably 2 or more. When (BA) is equal to or more than the lower limit value, the amount of bending of the
Further, (BA) is preferably 4 or less, more preferably 3 or less. When (BA) is equal to or less than the upper limit, the amount of bending of the
(BA) is preferably 1 to 4, and more preferably 1 to 3.
The ratio (B / A) of the deflection amount B and the deflection amount A is preferably 1.5 to 5.0, more preferably 1.8 to 4.8.
次に、口腔内にヘッド部22を挿入し、ハンドル部26を押圧しながら、植毛部を清掃対象部位に摺動させる。ハンドル部26に加えられた力が、ネック部24を介してヘッド部22に伝えられ、さらにヘッド部22から植毛部に伝えられることで、植毛部は清掃対象部位に圧力を掛けながら清掃する。この際、ヘッド部の撓み量Aと、ネック部の撓み量Bとの積(A×B)が0.8~10であると、ヘッド部とネック部が協調する適度な撓みが得られる。その結果、歯ブラシ21のヘッド部22に植設された用毛を奥歯の奥等の口腔内の隅々まで届けさせやすく、口腔内の清掃力が高められる。さらに、歯周ポケットに用毛を進入させやすく、歯周ポケットの清掃力が高められる。加えて、適度な撓みが得られることで、植毛部のしなやかさとクッション性が向上し、植毛部の歯肉に対する当たり心地が良好となり、歯肉に対する良好なマッサージ効果が得られ、使用感が高められる。 When the
