Hereinafter, embodiments will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. However, more detailed explanation than necessary may be omitted. For example, detailed explanations of already well-known matters or duplicate explanations for substantially the same configuration may be omitted.

It should be noted that the accompanying drawings and the following description are provided for those skilled in the art to fully understand the present disclosure, and are not intended to limit the subject matter described in the claims.

(Embodiment 1)
In the first embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, an attachment stand 10 capable of holding (installing) the nozzle attachment (attachment: oral care member) 20 is illustrated as a stand for the oral care member. ing.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the nozzle attachment 20 is detachably attached to the oral cleaning device main body (oral care device main body) 30. When the nozzle attachment 20 is attached to the oral cleaning device main body 30, for example, a liquid (water, washing water, etc.) boosted by a pump (not shown) built in the oral cleaning device main body 30 is at the tip of the nozzle 22. It is designed to be sprayed from.

Then, with the nozzle 22 of the nozzle attachment 20 attached to the oral cavity cleaning device main body 30 directed toward the oral cavity, the pressurized liquid is ejected from the nozzle 22 so that the oral cavity of the user or the like can be cleaned. It has become.

As described above, the nozzle attachment 20 and the oral cavity cleaning device main body 30 according to the first embodiment can clean the oral cavity of the user or the like by injecting the pressurized liquid from the nozzle 22 (oral). Care device).

This oral care device generally includes one oral cleaning device main body 30 and a plurality of nozzle attachments 20. In this way, while sharing one oral cleaning device main body 30, for example, each of the cohabitants such as a family member can have a dedicated nozzle attachment 20.

The attachment stand 10 according to the first embodiment is a stand for holding the nozzle attachment 20 that is not attached to the oral cleaning device main body 30, such as when the oral care device is not used.

Therefore, the attachment stand 10 according to the first embodiment can hold four (plurality) nozzle attachments 20 in one stand.

Specifically, the attachment stand 10 includes a stand body 11 as shown in FIG. The stand body 11 can be formed by using a material such as synthetic resin, so that the region R1 (contour shape in the plan view) in the plan view becomes a square shape (square shape) with rounded corners. (See FIG. 5). The stand body 11 can be used, for example, in a state of being mounted on a mounting surface 1 such as a washbasin (see FIG. 6).

The stand body 11 is formed with four (s) of holding holes 121 that extend vertically and open upward in a state where the stand body 11 is placed on the mounting surface 1.

In the first embodiment, each of the four holding holes 121 is a holding portion 12 capable of holding the nozzle attachment 20. Specifically, four holding holes 121 (holding portions 12) are formed in the central portions of each of the portions of the region R1 having a substantially square shape in a plan view.

On the other hand, the nozzle attachment 20 held by the holding portion 12 is connected to the nozzle main body (main body portion) 21 extending in one direction and the nozzle main body 21 so as to project in a direction intersecting the one direction. It is provided with a nozzle (oral insertion portion) 22 that can be inserted inside.

Then, by inserting the protrusion (held portion) 23 of the nozzle body 21 into the holding hole 121, the nozzle attachment 20 is held by the stand body 11.

In the first embodiment, the nozzle attachment 20 is attached to the oral cavity cleaning device main body 30 by inserting the protrusion 23 of the nozzle main body 21 into the insertion hole (connection portion) 31 of the oral cleaning device main body 30. ing. That is, in the first embodiment, the protrusion (held portion) 23 of the nozzle body 21 held by the holding portion 12 is inserted into the insertion hole (connecting portion) 31 of the oral cleaning device main body (oral care device main body) 30. It also serves as a connected portion to be connected (see FIGS. 2 and 3).

In the first embodiment, the engaging projection 31a formed in the insertion hole 31 of the oral cleaning device main body 30 is engaged with the engaging groove 23a formed in the protrusion 23 of the nozzle body 21. The nozzle attachment 20 is attached to the oral cavity cleaning device main body 30.

At this time, when the nozzle attachment 20 is attached to the oral cleaning device main body 30, the liquid flow path 20a formed in the nozzle attachment 20 communicates with the liquid discharge path 30a formed in the oral cleaning device main body 30. (See Fig. 3).

As described above, in the first embodiment, when the nozzle attachment 20 is held by the stand body 11, the nozzle body 21 extends in the vertical direction (one direction), and the nozzle 22 extends in the vertical direction with respect to the nozzle body 21. It is designed to protrude in the direction of intersection with.

At this time, depending on the state in which the nozzle attachments 20 are inserted into the adjacent holding holes 121, the nozzles 22 of the nozzle attachments 20 may face each other.

Further, in the first embodiment, the holding portion 12 is configured to be able to rotatably hold the nozzle attachment 20, and the nozzle attachment 20 held by the holding portion 12 rotates to rotate the holding portions 12 adjacent to each other. The nozzles 22 of the nozzle attachment 20 held in the above may face each other.

Therefore, when the nozzle attachment 20 is moved downward in the vertical direction and held by the holding portion 12, if the nozzles 22 are at the same height, the adjacent nozzles 22 do not interfere with each other. It is necessary to increase the distance between the two holding portions 12.

Then, if the distance between the two holding portions 12 is increased, the attachment stand 10 becomes larger in the horizontal direction, and the place where the attachment stand 10 is placed is restricted.

Therefore, in the first embodiment, it is possible to further improve the degree of freedom of the installation location while suppressing the interference between the adjacent nozzles 22. Specifically, the attachment stand 10 can be miniaturized in the horizontal direction while suppressing interference between adjacent nozzles 22.

In the first embodiment, the stand main body 11 is provided with a base portion 111 and a protruding portion 112 protruding so that the upper surface 112a is located above the upper surface 111a of the base portion 111.

Further, in the first embodiment, the stand main body 11 is formed by integrally molding the base portion 111 and the protruding portion 112. Specifically, the shape of the stand body 11 is such that substantially rectangular parallelepiped protruding portions 112 are formed at two diagonal positions of the substantially rectangular parallelepiped base portion 111. That is, two protrusions 112 are formed on the stand body 11 so as to line up in one diagonal direction, and portions where the protrusions 112 are not formed are formed in two places so as to line up in the other diagonal direction. I am trying to do it.

Then, a holding hole 121 is formed in a substantially central portion of the upper surface 112a of each of the two protrusions 112. Further, the holding holes 121 are formed in the substantially central portion of the upper surface 111a of each of the base portions 111 formed so as to be arranged in the other diagonal directions.

Here, in the first embodiment, the nozzle attachment 20 is inserted into the holding hole 121 formed in the substantially central portion of the upper surface 111a of the base portion 111 by using the lower surface 21b formed in the lower portion of the nozzle body 21 as the base portion. It is regulated by abutting the upper surface 111a of 111. On the other hand, when the nozzle attachment 20 is inserted into the holding hole 121 formed in the substantially central portion of the upper surface 112a of the protruding portion 112, the lower surface 21b formed in the lower portion of the nozzle body 21 is brought into contact with the upper surface 112a of the protruding portion 112. It is regulated by that.

The upper surface 112a of the protruding portion 112 is located above the upper surface 111a of the base portion 111.

Therefore, the nozzle attachment 20 held by the holding portion 12 formed on the protruding portion 112 is located above the nozzle attachment 20 held by the holding portion 12 formed on the base portion 111.

By doing so, the height positions of the nozzle 22 of the nozzle attachment 20 held by the protruding portion 112 and the nozzle 22 of the nozzle attachment 20 held by the base portion 111 can be made different.

Note that the insertion of the nozzle attachment 20 into the holding hole 121 may be restricted by the bottom surface 121a of the holding hole 121. Then, the plurality of holding holes 121 may have holding holes 121 having different height positions of the bottom surface 121a. By doing so, the height position of the nozzle 22 of the nozzle attachment 20 can be changed.

As described above, in the first embodiment, the holding portion 12 includes a first holding portion 13 and a second holding portion 14 having a height higher than that of the first holding portion 13. In the first embodiment, the holding portion 12 formed on the base portion 111 corresponds to the first holding portion 13, and the holding portion 12 formed on the protruding portion 112 serves as the second holding portion 14. It is equivalent.

Then, the distance p1 from the center O1 of the first holding portion 13 to the center O2 of the second holding portion 14 in the plan view is set to be the shortest distance between the plurality of holding portions 12. That is, the two holding portions 12 that are the shortest distance in the plan view are the first holding portion 13 and the second holding portion 14.

Further, the distance p2 from the center O1 of one first holding portion 13 to the center O1 of the other first holding portion 13 in a plan view is the shortest distance p1 between the plurality of holding portions 12. I try to make it bigger than. Further, the distance from the center O2 of one second holding portion 14 to the center O2 of the other second holding portion 14 in the plan view is also set to be the same as the distance p2.

That is, the two holding portions 12 that are separated from the shortest distance (distance p1) in a plan view are set to be the first holding portions 13 or the second holding portions 14.

Further, in the first embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the region R2 in which the nozzle 22 can exist when the holding portion 12 holds the nozzle attachment 20 is located in the region R1 of the stand main body 11 in a plan view. The holding portion 12 is formed on the stand main body 11 so as to fit.

By doing so, when the nozzle attachment 20 is held by the holding portion 12, the nozzle 22 protrudes to the outside (horizontally outside) of the stand body 11 regardless of the direction in which the nozzle 22 protrudes. Is made possible to suppress.

Further, in the first embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the region R3 and the region R4 partially overlap each other in a plan view. Here, the region R3 is a region in which the nozzle 22 can exist when the nozzle attachment 20 is held by the first holding portion 13. Further, the region R4 is the nozzle 22 when the nozzle attachment 20 is held by the second holding portion 14 arranged at the position closest to the first holding portion 13 in which the nozzle attachment 20 in which the region R3 is formed is arranged. Is the area where can exist.

In the first embodiment, the region R3 has a shape such that a truncated cone whose diameter is reduced upward is arranged on an upper portion of a truncated cone whose diameter is reduced downward, and the first aspect is viewed in a plan view. It is a region in a circle centered on the center O1 of the holding portion 13 (see FIG. 5). Similarly, the region R4 has a shape in which a truncated cone whose diameter is reduced upward is arranged on the upper portion of the truncated cone whose diameter is reduced downward, and in a plan view, the second holding portion 14 It is an area within a circle centered on the center O2 (see FIG. 5).

In other words, the first holding portion 13 and the second holding portion 14 are arranged so as to satisfy the relationship of p1 <2 × b. Here, b is the width in a direction orthogonal to one direction from the center O3 of the nozzle body 21 to the tip of the nozzle 22. Further, p1 is the distance from the center O1 of the first holding portion 13 to the center O2 of the second holding portion 14.

By doing so, the first holding portion 13 and the second holding portion 14 are arranged at a distance where the nozzle attachments 20 (nozzle 22) interfere with each other when held at the same height. , The size of the stand body can be reduced.

Further, in the first embodiment, when the length of the nozzle 22 in one direction is a and the height difference between the first holding portion 13 and the second holding portion 14 is x, the first The holding portion 13 and the second holding portion 14 are arranged so as to satisfy the relationship of x> a (see FIG. 6).

By doing so, it is possible to more reliably suppress the interference between the nozzles 22 of the nozzle attachment 20.

Then, the first holding portion 13 and the second holding portion 14 are arranged so as to satisfy the relationship of p1> b + c. Here, c is the length from the center O3 of the nozzle body 21 to the outer surface 21a (see FIG. 4).

By doing so, it is possible to more reliably prevent the nozzle 22 of the nozzle attachment 20 from interfering with the nozzle body 21 of the adjacent nozzle attachment 20.

Further, in the first embodiment, one first holding portion 13 and the other first holding portion 13 are arranged so as to satisfy the relationship of p2> 2 × b. Further, one first holding portion 13 and the other first holding portion 13 are arranged so as to satisfy the relationship of p2> 2 × b. Here, p2 is the distance from the center O1 of one first holding portion 13 to the center O1 of the other first holding portion 13. In the first embodiment, p2 is also the distance from the center O2 of one second holding portion 14 to the center O2 of the other second holding portion 14.

By doing so, it is possible to prevent the nozzle attachments 20 from interfering with each other even when they are held at the same height.

Note that d shown in FIG. 4 is one of the portions located above the upper surface of the stand body 11 (the upper surface 111a of the base portion 111 or the upper surface 112a of the protruding portion 112) while being held by the holding portion 12 of the nozzle body 21. It is the length of the direction.

If the configuration of the attachment stand 10 is the above-described configuration, it is possible to further improve the degree of freedom of the installation location while suppressing the interference between the nozzle attachments 20.

As a stand for oral care members, it is also possible to use an attachment stand that can hold (install) an electric toothbrush attachment (attachment: oral care member) 20A.

7 and 8 show an example of the electric toothbrush attachment 20A. The electric toothbrush attachment 20A shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 is detachably attached to the electric toothbrush main body (oral care device main body) 30A.

The attachment 20A of the electric toothbrush has a main body portion 21A extending in one direction and a brush portion (oral insertion portion) that is connected to the main body portion 21A so as to project in a direction intersecting one direction and can be inserted into the oral cavity. ) 22A and. Then, by inserting the vibrator (connecting portion) 31A oscillatingly formed in the electric toothbrush main body 30A into the recess (held portion) 23A of the main body 21A, the attachment 20A of the electric toothbrush becomes the electric toothbrush main body 30A. It is designed to be attached to. At this time, the engaging projection 23aA formed in the recess 23A is engaged with the engaging groove 31aA provided in the vibrator 31A.

Then, when the electric toothbrush attachment 20A shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 is attached to the electric toothbrush body 30A and the power is turned on by operating a switch (not shown), the brush is linked to the vibration of the vibrator 31A. The part 22A vibrates.

As described above, the electric toothbrush attachment 20A and the electric toothbrush body 30A shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 are devices (oral care devices) capable of brushing the teeth of the user or the like by electrically vibrating the brush portion 22A. be.

The oral care device shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 also includes one electric toothbrush main body 30A and a plurality of electric toothbrush attachments 20A. That is, while sharing one electric toothbrush main body 30A, a plurality of people can have a dedicated electric toothbrush attachment 20A.

If the attachment stand that holds the attachments 20A of the plurality of electric toothbrushes is made like the attachment stand 10 described above, the degree of freedom of the installation location is further improved while suppressing the interference between the attachments 20A of the electric toothbrushes. It becomes possible.

When the attachment 20A of the electric toothbrush shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 is held on the attachment stand, it is preferable to form a holding protrusion instead of the holding hole 121 and use this holding protrusion as a holding portion. In this way, the concave portion (held portion) 23A of the main body portion 21A held by the holding portion also serves as the connected portion connected to the vibrator (connecting portion) 31A of the electric toothbrush main body (oral care device main body) 30A. be able to.

However, similarly to the attachment stand 10 described above, it is also possible to make the holding hole formed in the stand body function as a holding portion. In this case, by inserting the lower end portion of the main body portion 21A into the holding hole, the attachment 20A of the electric toothbrush is held by the attachment stand.

Then, the plurality of holding portions formed on the attachment stand for holding the attachments 20A of the plurality of electric toothbrushes can be formed so as to satisfy the same conditions as the attachment stand 10 described above.

In the attachment 20A of the electric toothbrush, the length in one direction of the brush portion 22A is a, and the width in the direction orthogonal to one direction from the center O4 of the main body portion 21A to the tip of the brush portion 22A is b. Further, the length from the center O4 of the main body 21A to the outer surface 21aA is c, and the length in one direction of the main body 21A, that is, the position above the upper surface of the stand main body while being held by the holding part in the main body 21A. The length of the portion to be formed in one direction is d (see FIG. 9).

Further, as a stand for the oral care member, it is also possible to use a stand capable of holding (installing) the toothbrush (oral care member) 20B.
