DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a brush for cleaning and massaging a scalp.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art At an eccentric position of a substantially disk-shaped brush base,
A grip part protruding above the base is installed. In addition, since the brush head is attached to the brush base in a liquid-tight manner, an air inlet hole is provided in the brush head to ensure cushioning of the brush head.

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

[0003] In washing and massaging the scalp, it is common to use a shampoo to foam the head, then grasp the brush base by hand, press the tip of the bristle installed on the brush hair rest against the scalp and hair roots, and brush appropriately.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 to 5 show an embodiment of the present invention.
Is a front view, FIG. 2 is a right side view, FIG. 3 is a plan view, FIG. 4 is a bottom view, and FIG. FIGS. 6 to 9 show examples of the prior art. FIG. 6 is a front view, FIG. 7 is a right side view, FIG. 8 is a bottom view, and FIG.

First, referring to FIGS. 1 to 5, in the brush for scalp massage of the present invention, a brush bristle base 2 is attached to a brush base 1 in a liquid-tight manner. More specifically, the edge of the brush rest 2 is generally fitted into a circumferential groove provided in the brush base 1. An appropriate amount of bristle 3 of an arbitrary shape is provided on the brush hair rest 2 so that an appropriate stimulation is efficiently given to the scalp and hair root. The brush base 1 is formed in a substantially disk shape such as a circle or an ellipse, and a grip portion 4 having a substantially cylindrical shape such as a circle, an ellipse, or a polygon is provided at the center of the brush base 1. 4 with the upper end 5 of the gripper 4
Is formed in a substantially disc shape such as a circle, an ellipse, or a polygon having a larger diameter than the maximum diameter. The grip portion 4 and the upper end portion 5 are preferably formed integrally with the brush base 1 in consideration of productivity and cost, but may be formed as separate members and then fitted and assembled.

Further, the inside of the hair rest is generally communicated with the outside through an air introduction hole 6 provided in the brush rest 2 (as shown in FIG. 9). Hair, shampoo, etc. enter into the inside of the hair rest and give a feeling of fouling. To cope with this, in order to cope with this, the air introduction hole 6 is not provided in the brush hair rest 2 as shown in FIGS. It is preferable that the grip portion 4 is formed in a hollow shape and the air introduction hole 6 is provided in the upper end portion 5.

Referring to FIGS. 6 to 9, since the gripper 4 having a relatively complicated shape is installed at an eccentric position of the brush base 1, the gripping direction of the grip 4 and the brush base 1 must be changed. It is regulated and hinders. Also, as shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, an air inlet 6 is provided in the brush hair rest.

[0013]

As described above, the scalp massage brush of the present invention can freely grip the brush base 1 while holding the grip portion 4 between two fingers from any direction.
Since the upper end portion 5 acts so that the grip portion 4 does not separate from the two fingers, the brush base 1 can be easily and reliably gripped and held. Further, the air introduction hole 6 is not provided in the brush hair rest 2 and the air is introduced into the upper part 5 of the gripping part 4 which is securely separated from the scalp washing part where foam is formed by shampoo via the brush base and palm. Since the introduction hole 6 is provided, hair and shampoo do not enter the inside of the hair rest and do not give a dirty feeling.
