Definitions

  • the invention relates to a toothbrush with a brush head consisting of a plate with bundles of bristles arranged therein on one side and a handle part connected to one end of the plate according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the brush head generally being connected straight or at an angle to the handle, which can also be angled.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to construct a toothbrush which enables the angle between the brush head and the handle part to be changed in a simple manner during use.
  • a toothbrush with an adjustable brush body is already known, the angle of which is adjustable by means of a movable half of the handle in such a way that one half of the handle is provided with a tooth which engages in corresponding gaps in the other half of the handle that the brush body is held immovably to the handle in several swivel positions.
  • This arrangement allows only an unchangeable adjustment of the brush body, while according to the invention a flexible adjustability of the brush head is required and guaranteed while brushing the teeth.
  • Each toothbrush has a brush head 1, which consists of a plate 2, in which bristle bundles 3 are inserted on one side.
  • An optionally tapered and / or provided with a projection (not shown) end 4 of the plate 2 is articulated and tensile connected to a handle 5, wherein the handle 5 can be straight (Fig. 5) or angled (Fig. 1 to 4).
  • the handle 5 consists of two mutually corresponding rigid handle parts 7, which are connected parallel to one another by means of at least two webs 8 so as to be movable relative to one another.
  • the handle parts 7 at the end 4 of the brush head 1 are articulated at a distance from one another on the upper 9 or lower 10 edge of the end 4 of the plate 2. All articulation points are designated 11.
  • Fig. 2 shows such an embodiment, in which the handle parts 7 are connected, for example, by injection molding with pendulum webs 8 ', the articulation points 11 on the handle parts 7 and on the plate 2 are thinned or notched to increase the mobility. This creates hinges.
  • the two handle parts 7 are separated by an elastic, e.g. foam-like intermediate layer 12 connected to each other, which enables a relative movement of the two handle parts 7 against each other.
  • an elastic e.g. foam-like intermediate layer 12 connected to each other, which enables a relative movement of the two handle parts 7 against each other.
  • the handle 5 has a holder 13 which is connected at the upper edge 9 to the end 4 of the plate 2 of the brush head 1 in an articulated but tensile manner.
  • the articulated connection can be made by thinning the material using a traction cable or a ball joint.
  • three handle parts 14 are arranged, the ends of which are directed towards the brush head 1 and are articulated on the three free edges of the end 4 of the plate 2, each offset by 90 °.
  • the brush head 1 can be adjusted in virtually any direction by moving individual or multiple handle parts 14.
