It is configured to include a brush head (26) for wiping and removing foreign matter.

Toothbrush member (20) by pushing the rear end of the bag portion (22) through the front through hole (12) of the gagged member (10) to exit the rear through hole (14) of the gagged member (10) ).

In addition, the toothbrush member 20 is assembled in a state penetrated to the gagged member 10, the user grips the rear end of the bag portion 22, pushes or pulls the bag portion 22, rotates or predetermined It may be configured to move to be inclined at an angle.

The present invention with the above configuration, as shown in Figure 2, when the toothbrush member 20 is assembled to pass through the gagged member 10, if the gagged member 10 is put into the oral cavity of a pet, the gagged member 10 By this, the pet is unable to bite the toothbrush member 20, so that the user can freely move the toothbrush member 20 in the state where the bag 22 is gripped, and accordingly, the pet through the brush part 24 It is possible to brush teeth (T) of (P) quickly and cleanly.

Meanwhile, in the present invention, the brush portion 24 of the toothbrush member 20 may be configured such that the bristles 26 are formed only on one surface of the brush support member 25, as shown in FIG. 1, but is not limited thereto. As shown in (a), the bristles 26 are formed on both sides of the brush support member 25, so that the free operation of the toothbrush member 20 by the gagged member 10 is possible, and It may be configured to simultaneously wipe the lower teeth, and also, as shown in (b) of FIG. 3, the brush support 25' is not formed in a plate shape but is formed in a circular bar shape, and a circular bar shape brush support ( The brush heads 26 are formed radially on the outer circumferential surface of the 25'), so that the brush portion 24'' is formed in a circular bar shape, so that the brush portion 24'' rotates as the user grasps the bag portion 22 and rotates it. In doing so, effective brushing of the pet's teeth can be achieved.

In addition, referring to (a) of FIG. 4, the brush portion 24 of the toothbrush member 20 of the present invention includes a bristle 26 on one surface of the brush support body 25, and the bristles 26 have a width direction It can be configured to form a v-shaped groove along. In addition, as shown in FIG. 4(c), the bristles 26 of the brush portion 24 ″ are formed in a circular rod shape formed radially from a circular brush support body, and the bristles 26 are circled at an intermediate position in the longitudinal direction. It is configured to form a v-shaped groove 26c as a columnar shape.

As described above, when the v-shaped

grooves

26a and 26c are formed in the bristles 26, as shown in FIGS. 4B and 4D, the bristles 26 forming the v-shaped

grooves

26a and 26c are formed. ) The end of the pet can be in contact with the side of the pet teeth (T) can be very effectively removed foreign matter attached to the pet teeth.

When the v-shaped groove 26a is formed in the width direction of the bristles 26, as shown in FIG. 4(b), the user may preferably operate the brush portion 24 to reciprocate or rotate in the width direction.

On the other hand, although not shown, in the present invention, the v-shaped groove 26a may be formed along the longitudinal direction of the bristles 26, and in this case, when the sole 24 moves back and forth repeatedly by user manipulation, v The end portion of the bristles 26 forming the mold groove will be in contact with the side of the pet's teeth to effectively remove foreign substances attached to the teeth.

In addition, in the present invention, the size of the front through hole 12 and the rear through hole 14 formed in the gagged member 10 may be configured to be the same, respectively, but in this embodiment, the rear through hole 14 formed in the gagged member 10 By being configured to be larger than the front through hole 12, when the user moves the rear end of the bag portion 22 up or down in the state where the bag portion 22 is gripped, the sole portion 24 is attached to the gagged member 10. As the rotational movement of the upper and lower sides is effective, effective brushing for pet teeth can be achieved.

Hereinafter, a toothbrush 2 for a pet according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6. Compared to the first embodiment, the second embodiment differs only in the shape of the gagged member 10' and the number of brush members 24-1 and 24-2 of the toothbrush member 20'. It is the same as the first embodiment.

Specifically, the gagged member 10' is formed in a circular columnar shape, and a massage protrusion 16 is formed radially on the outer circumferential surface.

In addition, the toothbrush member 20' is composed of a pair of brush members 24-1 and 24-2 formed on the bag section 22 and a pair of bag sections 22, the front and rear sides of the gagged member 10'. It can be configured to be placed in each.

With the above-described configuration, as shown in FIG. 6, the user enters the gagged member 10 ′ into the pet's mouth to prevent the pet from biting the toothbrush member 20 ′, and the user rearwards the bag 22. Grasping the wealth, while moving, it is possible to simultaneously wipe the left and right teeth (T1, T2) of the pet (P) through a pair of brush parts (24-1,24-2). Thus, when the pair of brush portions 24-1 and 24-2 simultaneously wipe the left and right teeth of the pet, the time required for the user to brush the teeth of the pet can be significantly reduced.

On the other hand, depending on the size of the pet, the distance between the left and right teeth of the pet may be different, and accordingly, the present invention is configured to be able to adjust the gap between the pair of soles 24-1 and 24-2. Can. That is, as shown in FIG. 7, the toothbrush member 20 ′ of the present invention is fixed to the first brush portion 24-1 integrally with the tip of the bag portion 22, and the first brush portion 24-1 The second sole portion 24-2 disposed rearward is configured to adjust the position along the sack portion 22, thereby adjusting the spacing between the first sole member 24-1 and the second sole member 24-2. Can be used.

To this end, a through hole (h, see FIG. 8) is formed in the front and rear directions of the brush support body 25 of the second sole portion 24-2, and the bag portion 22 is inserted into the through hole h, The second sole portion 24-2 is configured to be slidable along the sack portion 22. In addition, a plurality of position fixing screw grooves 28 are formed along the lengthwise direction of the bag portion 22, and the brush support body 25 is inwardly disposed on the rear surface of the brush support body 25 of the second sole portion 24-2. It is provided with a fixing bolt (B) that is screwed while penetrating, and the fixing bolt (B) advances along the direction of rotation so that the tip of the fixing bolt (B) invades the inside of the through hole (h) and the fixing bolt (B) By being fitted to one of the plurality of position fixing screw grooves 28, the second sole portion 24-2 may be configured to be fixed at any position in the longitudinal direction of the bag portion 22.

The user loosens the fixing bolt (B) so that the tip of the fixing bolt (B) deviates from the position fixing screw groove (28), and then moves the second sole (24-2) on the bag (22) to adjust the position. After that, by re-tightening the fixing bolt (B), the front end of the fixing bolt (B) is fitted to the position fixing screw groove (28) of the moved position of the plurality of positioning screw grooves (28), so that the first sole portion (24) The spacing of the second sole portion 24-2 relative to -1) can be fixed by positioning.

In addition, the present invention, when the separation of the gagged member 10' and the toothbrush member 20' for reasons such as washing, after releasing the fixing bolt B, the second brush member 24- 2) The bag part 22 is pulled out through the rear end and separated, and then the bag part 22 is pulled out from the gagged member 10' through the rear end of the bag part 22, and the gagged member 10' and toothbrush member ( 20') can be separated from each other.

Above, the present invention has been illustrated and described with reference to preferred embodiments for illustrating the principles of the invention, but the invention is not limited to the configurations and acts as illustrated and described. Rather, those skilled in the art will appreciate that many changes and modifications to the present invention are possible without departing from the spirit and scope of the appended claims. Accordingly, all such suitable modifications and corrections and equivalents should also be considered within the scope of the present invention.
