Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Zahnbürste mit allgemein quaderförmigen Bürstenkopf dessen Bürstenhaare auf einem plattenförmigen Abschnitt eines Tragstücks aus Kunststoff befestigt sind, das mittels eines scharnierartigen Gelenks mit einem allgemein stab-oder stangenförmigen als einseitig offener Hohlkörper ausgebildeten Haltestück aus Kunststoff verbunden und aus einer Anschlagstellung in dieses Haltestück schwenkbar ist, wobei in den freien Kanten der Seitenwände des Haltestücks im Bereich von dessen Stirnwand je eine Ausnehmung derart ausgebildet ist, daß das Tragstück in in das Haltestück eingeklappter Stellung untergreifbar ist.The invention relates to a toothbrush with a generally cuboid-shaped brush head, the brush hairs of which are attached to a plate-shaped section of a support piece made of plastic, which is connected by means of a hinge-like joint to a generally rod-shaped or rod-shaped holding piece made of plastic, which is designed as a hollow body that is open on one side, and from a stop position into this holding piece can be pivoted, a recess being formed in the free edges of the side walls of the holding piece in the region of its end wall in such a way that the support piece can be gripped under in the position folded into the holding piece.

Eine derartige zusammenklappbare Zahnbürste ist durch die US-A-13 78 044 bekannt. Bei dieser Zahnbürste wird das Tragstück mit Bürstenkopf in das Haltestück eingeklappt. In eingeklappter Stellung ist der den Bürstenkopf aufnehmende Hohlraum des Haltestücks über einen zwischen Tragstück und Seitenwänden des Haltestücks ausgebildeten umlaufenden offenen Spalt mit der Umgebung verbunden. Dieses hat zu Folge, daß in dem Haltestück sich ansammelnde Feuchtigkeit mit Zahncremeresten z.B. aus dem Bürstenkopf aus dem Haltestück herausfließen und die Umgebung verschmutzen kann. Dieses kann nur verhindert werden, wenn der dem Bürstenkopf zugeordnete bauchige Abschnitt des Haltestücks so gehalten oder gelagert wird, daß sich die Flüssigkeit im tieferen Bereich des bauchigen Abschnitts ansammelt. Dieses stellt einen erheblichen Nachteil dar, da beim Transport der Zahnbürste in z.B. Reisgepäck die genannte das Auslaufen von Flüssigkeit verhindernde Lage der zusammengeklappten Zahnbürste nicht eingehalten werden kann. Ein weiterer Nachteil dieser Zahnbürste besteht darin, daß das Haltestück und das Tragstück nicht zerstörungsfrei voneinander getrennt werden können. Haltestück und Tragstück sind durch einen Stift oder Bolzen verbunden. Wenn dieser entfernt werden soll, ist eine Beschädigung der die Lager aufnehmenden Seitenflansche des Haltestücks nicht zu vermeiden. Aus diesem Brunde unterbleibt bei dieser bekannten Zahnbürste die Zerlegung in die Einzelteile mit der Folge, daß eine Reinigung des Haltestücks und des Tragstücks im Bereich des Gelenks nur schwierig und unvollkommen durchgeführt werden kann. Nach der FR-A-15 75 958 ist eine weitere zusammenklappbare Zahnbürste bekannt, bei der im zusammengeklappten Zustand die an der Bürste befindliche Flüssigkeit von einem Schwamm auf dem Boden des Haltestücks aufgesogen werden soll. Dieses begründet im Gebrauch außerordentlich ästhetische und praktischen Nachteile. Da der Schwamm zusätzlich mit Zahncremeresten versetzt werden kann, vermittelt diese Zahnbürste den Benutzern einen unhygienischen Eindruck.Such a collapsible toothbrush is known from US-A-13 78 044. With this toothbrush, the support piece with the brush head is folded into the holding piece. In the folded position, the cavity of the holding piece which receives the brush head is connected to the surroundings via an all-round open gap formed between the supporting piece and the side walls of the holding piece. This has the consequence that moisture accumulating in the holding piece with toothpaste residues e.g. can flow out of the brush head from the holding piece and contaminate the environment. This can only be prevented if the bulbous section of the holding piece assigned to the brush head is held or stored in such a way that the liquid collects in the lower region of the bulbous section. This is a considerable disadvantage, since when the toothbrush is transported in e.g. Luggage can not comply with the stated position of the folded toothbrush to prevent leakage of liquid. Another disadvantage of this toothbrush is that the holding piece and the support piece cannot be separated from one another without being destroyed. The holding piece and support piece are connected by a pin or bolt. If this is to be removed, damage to the side flanges of the holding piece that receive the bearings cannot be avoided. For this reason, this known toothbrush does not break down into the individual parts, with the result that cleaning of the holding piece and the supporting piece in the region of the joint can be carried out only with difficulty and incompletely. According to FR-A-15 75 958, another collapsible toothbrush is known, in which, when collapsed, the liquid on the brush is to be soaked up by a sponge on the bottom of the holding piece. This creates extremely aesthetic and practical disadvantages in use. Since toothpaste residues can also be added to the sponge, this toothbrush gives users an unsanitary impression.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht darin, eine zusammenklappbare Zahnburste der eingangs genannten Auf so auszubilden, daß in zusammengeklappter Stellung das Tragstück für den Bürstenkopf ausreichend zu dem Haltestück abgedichtet ist, wobei das Tragstück zur Reinigung der Zahnbürste ohne das Haltestück zu beschädigen leicht von diesem lösbar und nach der Reinigung anschliessend wieder leicht mit dem Haltestück verbindbar sein soll.The object of the invention is to form a collapsible toothbrush of the type mentioned in such a way that in the collapsed position the support piece for the brush head is sufficiently sealed to the holding piece, the supporting piece for cleaning the toothbrush being easily detachable from it and without damaging the holding piece after cleaning should be easily connectable to the holding piece again.

Erfindungsgemäß erfolgt die Lösung der Aufgabe dadurch, daß das Tragstück und das Haltestück als Spritzgußteil derart ausgebildet sind, daß das Gelenkstück und die Seitenwände des Tragstücks bei in den Hohlkörper des Haltestücks geschwenktem Bürstenkopf an der Innenseite der Seitenwände des Haltestücks anliegen und daß die zur Lagerung der Lagerzapfen des Gelenkstücks bestimmten freien Endabschnitte der Seitenwände des Haltestücks elastisch ausgebildet sind.According to the invention, the object is achieved in that the support piece and the holding piece are designed as an injection molded part such that the joint piece and the side walls of the support piece bear against the inside of the side walls of the holding piece when the brush head is pivoted into the hollow body of the holding piece, and that they are used for storing the Bearing pins of the joint piece certain free end portions of the side walls of the holding piece are formed elastically.

Wie in den Figuren 1 bis 4 dargestellt, besteht die Zahnbüste 1 aus einem Haltestück 7 und einem Tragstück 5 mit Bürstenkopf 3. Das Tragstück 5 ist an dem dem Bürstenkopf 3 abgewandten Endabschnitt um ein Gelenk 6 schwenkbar mit dem Haltestück 7 verbunden. Das Haltestück 7 ist als Hohlkörper 9 ausgebildet. Bei aus dem Hohlkörper ausgeschwenktem Tragstück 5 befindet sich die Zahnbürste 1 in ihrer Gebrauchsstellung. Bei Nichtgebrauch kann das Tragstück 5 um das Gelenk 6 in den Hohlkörper 9 eingeschwenkt werden, wodurch die Länge der Zahnbürste 1 etwa halbiert wird.As shown in Figures 1 to 4, the toothbrush 1 consists of a holding piece 7 and a support piece 5 with a brush head 3. The support piece 5 is pivotally connected to the holding piece 7 at the end portion facing away from the brush head 3 about a joint 6. The holding piece 7 is designed as a hollow body 9. When the support piece 5 is pivoted out of the hollow body, the toothbrush 1 is in its position of use. When not in use, the support piece 5 can be pivoted about the joint 6 into the hollow body 9, whereby the length of the toothbrush 1 is approximately halved.

Der Hohlkörper 9 besteht aus einer Grundplatte 10, an der rechtwinklig zwei Seitenwände 11, 12 und eine Stirnwand 13 ausgebildet sind (Fig. 5). An den der Stirnwand 13 abgewandten Endabschnitten 16, 17 der Seitenwände 11, 12 ist je eine Durchbrechung 18, 19 ausgebildet, die als Lagerung für das Gelenk 6 dient. Der dem Bürstenkopf 3 abgewandte Endabschnitt des Tragstücks 5 ist verdickt als Gelenkstück 22 ausgebildet, an dem beidseitig je ein Lagerzapfen 20, 21 angeordnet ist. Diese Lagerzapfen 20, 21 sind in die Durchbrechungen 18, 19 einführbar, die als Lager 15 für die Lagerzapfen 20, 21 dienen. An der den Bürsten abgewandten Fläche des Tragstücks 5 ist im Bereich des Gelenkstücks 22 ein Absatz ausgebildet, der an einem Anschlag 25 des Haltestücks 7 zur Anlage bringbar ist. Die Stirnkante 24 der Grundplatte des Haltestücks 7 ist gegenüber den Durchbrechungen 18, 19 zurückversetzt angeordnet und dient als Anschalg 15 für den Absatz 23. Durch die Anlage des Absatzes 23 an der Sirnkante 24 ist die Gebrauchsstellung der Zahnbürste 1 festgelegt, da in diesem Fall das Tragstück 5 sich in einer Ebene mit dem Haltestück 7 befindet.The hollow body 9 consists of a base plate 10 on which two side walls 11, 12 and an end wall 13 are formed at right angles (FIG. 5). On the end sections 16, 17 of the side walls 11, 12 facing away from the end wall 13, an opening 18, 19 is formed, which serves as a bearing for the joint 6. The end section of the support piece 5 facing away from the brush head 3 is formed as a thickened joint piece 22, on each of which a bearing pin 20, 21 is arranged. These journals 20, 21 can be inserted into the openings 18, 19, which serve as bearings 15 for the journals 20, 21. On the surface of the support piece 5 facing away from the brushes, a shoulder is formed in the area of the joint piece 22, which can be brought into abutment against a stop 25 of the holding piece 7. The Front edge 24 of the base plate of the holding piece 7 is set back with respect to the openings 18, 19 and serves as a bellows 15 for the heel 23. The position of the heel 23 on the front edge 24 defines the position of use of the toothbrush 1, since in this case the support piece 5 is in one plane with the holding piece 7.

Um das Tragstück 5 aus dem Haltestück 7 ausschwenken zu können, sind in den freien Kanten 26, 27 der Seitenwände 11, 12 im Bereich der Stirnwände 13 des Haltestücks 7 Ausnehmungen 28, 29 ausgebildet. Die Tiefe der Ausnehmung 28, 29 ist derart bemessen, daß das Tragstück 5 in in das Haltestück 7 eingeklappter Stellung untergreifbar ist.In order to be able to pivot the support piece 5 out of the holding piece 7, 7 recesses 28, 29 are formed in the free edges 26, 27 of the side walls 11, 12 in the region of the end walls 13 of the holding piece. The depth of the recess 28, 29 is dimensioned such that the support piece 5 can be gripped under in the position folded into the holding piece 7.

Vorzugsweise ist die Zahnbürste 1 als Spritzgußteil ausgebildet, da dieses ein Fertigung mit engen Toleranzen ermöglicht. Hierdurch ist sichergestellt, daß das Gelenkstück 22 und die Seitenkanten 30, 31 des Tragstücks 5 bei in den Hohlkörper 9 geschwenktem Bürstenkopf 3 an den Seitenwänden 11, 12 und der Grundplate 10 anliegen. Der Hohlkörper 9 ist somit weitgehend geschlossen, so daß eine Verschmutzung des Umfeldes der Zahnbürste 1 mit pastenhaltigen Rückständen verhindert wird. Sofern eine Reinigung der Zahnbürste 1 erforderlich ist, kann das Tragstück 5 leicht von dem Haltestück 7 getrennt werden. Hierzu ist es lediglich erforderlich, eine der Seitenwände 10, 11 im Bereich der Endabschnitte 16, 17 leicht aufzubiegen, so daß die Lagerzapfen 20, 21 durch Verkanten des Tragstücks 5 aus den Durchbrechungen 18, 19 entnommen werden können.The toothbrush 1 is preferably designed as an injection molded part, since this enables production with narrow tolerances. This ensures that the joint piece 22 and the side edges 30, 31 of the support piece 5 rest against the side walls 11, 12 and the base plate 10 when the brush head 3 is pivoted into the hollow body 9. The hollow body 9 is thus largely closed, so that contamination of the area around the toothbrush 1 with pasty residues is prevented. If cleaning of the toothbrush 1 is required, the support piece 5 can easily be separated from the holding piece 7. For this purpose, it is only necessary to slightly bend one of the side walls 10, 11 in the region of the end sections 16, 17, so that the bearing journals 20, 21 can be removed from the openings 18, 19 by tilting the support piece 5.
