Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oral hygiene products technology, and in particular to a tooth pick made of bamboo pulp fiber. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, dental floss picks and toothpicks are commonly used dental cleaning tools. When using them, the tips of the floss or toothpick are moved between teeth to clean the gaps and gums. However, the main body of existing dental floss picks is primarily made of non-biodegradable materials such as plastic. Plastic is a material that cannot be completely decomposed, and people generally discard dental floss picks carelessly after use. Because the plastic material cannot be broken down, it causes environmental pollution. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to overcome at least one of the defects of the prior art, the present invention provides a bamboo pulp fiber tooth pick, the main body of which is made of biodegradable bamboo pulp fiber rod and can be degraded after use; and the tooth-picking part of the main body of the tooth pick can be used for tooth picking.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its problem is:

[0005] A bamboo pulp fiber tooth pick includes a tooth pick body made of bamboo pulp fiberboard. The tooth pick body has a handle and a tooth pick end. The tooth pick end is provided with a tooth pick part for inserting into the gaps between teeth in the oral cavity.

[0006] Furthermore, the tooth-picking end is provided with a first connecting arm and a second connecting arm, and a hollow portion is formed between the first connecting arm and the second connecting arm; dental floss is connected between the first connecting arm and the second connecting arm, and the dental floss forms the tooth-picking part.

[0007] Furthermore, the ends of the first connecting arm and the second connecting arm that are away from the dental floss are connected by an arc segment or an inclined segment.

[0008] Furthermore, the end of the hand handle away from the tooth-picking end is provided with a tooth-picking tip.

[0009] Furthermore, a bending portion is provided at the connection position between the tooth pick tip and the handle, and the bending portion is used to bend relative to the handle when the tooth pick tip is subjected to force.

[0010] Furthermore, the end of the hand handle is provided with a first recessed groove, and the tooth pick tip is connected to one side of the first recessed groove; the first recessed groove is formed as the bent portion.

[0011] Furthermore, a second recessed groove is provided on the other side of the hand handle, and the second recessed groove is disposed opposite to the first recessed groove.

[0012] Furthermore, the outer surface of the main body of the dental rod is provided with a waterproof coating.

[0013] Furthermore, the hand handle is provided with several reinforcing ribs.

[0014] Furthermore, the weight of the main body of the dental stick is 0.1g-2g.

[0015] In summary, this utility model has the following technical effects:

[0016] 1. Compared to ordinary rod-shaped or bar-shaped structures, the handle of the dental pick has a flat grip surface, making it easier for the person to hold and operate. In addition, by holding the handle, the person can insert the tooth-picking end of the dental pick into the mouth, allowing the tooth-picking part to reach into the gaps between teeth for cleaning, making operation convenient.

[0017] 2. Since the main body of the dental stick in this application is made of bamboo pulp fiber, which is biodegradable, it can naturally degrade during use, making it more environmentally friendly. The main body of the dental stick can be made by hot-pressing bamboo pulp fiber into bamboo pulp fiberboard using existing hot-pressing technology, and then cutting it. This results in a dental stick body with better strength. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0023] To better understand and implement this invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", and "outer" indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0025] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.

[0026] Example 1,

[0027] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 This utility model discloses a bamboo pulp fiber tooth pick, including a tooth pick body 10, which is made of bamboo pulp fiberboard. Specifically, the tooth pick body 10 has a hand handle 11 and a tooth pick end, which is provided with a tooth pick part that can be inserted into the gaps between teeth in the oral cavity.

[0028] When using the bamboo pulp fiber tooth pick of this invention, the handle 11 of the tooth pick body 10 has a flat hand grip compared to ordinary rod or bar structures, making it easier for the user to hold and operate. Furthermore, by holding the handle 11, the user can insert the tooth-picking end of the tooth pick body 10 into the mouth, allowing the tooth-picking part to reach into the gaps between teeth for cleaning, making operation convenient.

[0029] It should also be noted that since the main body 10 of the dental stick in this application is made of bamboo pulp fiber in the prior art, and bamboo pulp fiber has degradable properties, it can naturally degrade during use, making it more environmentally friendly.

[0030] Of course, the aforementioned tooth stick body 10 can be made by hot-pressing bamboo pulp fibers into bamboo pulp fiberboard using existing hot-pressing technology, and then cutting it. This results in a tooth stick body 10 with better strength. Specifically, the hot-pressing process is existing technology. It can be that existing bamboo pulp fibers are pressed into a substrate, and then hot-pressed using an existing hot press machine, so that the bamboo pulp fibers are tightly bonded under high temperature and high pressure, resulting in a bamboo pulp fiber substrate with better strength.

[0031] Example 2,

[0032] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 In this embodiment, the flosser end is provided with a first connecting arm 121 and a second connecting arm 122, and a hollow portion is formed between the first connecting arm 121 and the second connecting arm 122. This allows dental floss 123 to be connected between the first connecting arm 121 and the second connecting arm 122. The dental floss 123 forms the flosser end. When cleaning teeth, the flosser end is inserted into the oral cavity, and the dental floss 123 extends into the gaps between the teeth to remove the floss. The hollow portion between the first connecting arm 121 and the second connecting arm 122 avoids gaps between teeth when the dental floss 123 is used, making cleaning between teeth more convenient.

[0033] Furthermore, the ends of the first connecting arm 121 and the second connecting arm 122 that are away from the dental floss 123 are connected by an arc segment 124. The first connecting arm 121 and the second connecting arm 122 are connected by an arc segment 124. The connection positions of the first connecting arm 121 and the second connecting arm 122 with the dental rod body 10 are all arcs, which are less likely to break than right-angle connections, thus providing better strength.

[0034] Of course, the first connecting arm 121 and the second connecting arm 122 can also be connected by an inclined section 125. The connection positions of the first connecting arm 121 and the second connecting arm 122 with the main body 10 of the dental rod are both inclined surfaces. The inclined surfaces can decompose the force at the connection position and are not easily broken, thus resulting in better strength.

[0035] Example 3,

[0036] Unlike embodiment 2, the end of the handle 11 opposite to the tooth-picking end is provided with a tooth-picking tip 111. In this way, in addition to using dental floss 123 on the tooth-picking end for cleaning between teeth, the tooth-picking tip 111 can also be used on the other end of the handle 11 for tooth picking. Users can choose to use dental floss 123 or tooth-picking tip 111 for tooth picking according to different usage needs, which combines the functions of dental floss stick 123 and toothpick stick.

[0037] Example 4,

[0038] Based on Embodiment 3, to facilitate teeth picking using the tooth-picking tip 111 at the end of the handle 11, a bending portion can be provided at the connection point between the tooth-picking tip 111 and the handle 11. That is, the tooth-picking tip 111 is connected by a bending portion. When the tooth-picking tip 111 is bent by hand, since the tooth stick body 10 is made of bamboo pulp fiber, it has a certain degree of flexibility. With the bending portion, the tooth-picking tip 111 can be bent relative to the handle 11, allowing it to be used in a bent state. After bending, it extends out of the tooth stick body 10 for teeth picking. More specifically, see... Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 A first recessed groove 112 is provided at the end of the handle 11. The tooth pick tip 111 is connected to one side of the first recessed groove 112. Based on this structure, the first recessed groove 112 can form a recess at the end of the tooth pick body 10, reducing the thickness of the connection between the tooth pick tip 111 and the handle 11. When the tooth pick tip 111 is under force, the thickness of the connection can be reduced, making it easier to bend.

[0039] Furthermore, a second recessed groove can be provided on the other side of the handle 11, and the second recessed groove is arranged opposite to the first recessed groove 112. In this way, since there are recessed structures on both sides of the end of the handle 11, the thickness of the connection between the tooth pick tip 111 and the handle 11 is thinner, making it easier to bend on both sides.

[0040] Furthermore, since the main body 10 of the dental floss stick is made of bamboo pulp fiber, and the thickness of the connection position is reduced by setting a concave structure on both sides, the dental floss tip 111 can be bent and broken off from the main body 10 under sufficient external force. The dental floss tip 111 and the dental floss stick 123 can be used separately, which makes the use more flexible.

[0041] Example 5, based on any of the above examples,

[0042] See Figure 4 In this embodiment, several tooth stick bodies 1010 are provided, arranged side by side and spaced apart. Adjacent tooth stick bodies 1010 can be connected by connecting ribs 1313, forming a seam between them. The connecting ribs 1313 within the seam connect the adjacent tooth stick bodies 1010 into a single structure. This allows for packaging of several tooth stick bodies 1010 side by side, and also enables carrying a row of tooth stick bodies 10. When using a tooth stick body 10 individually, force can be applied to two adjacent tooth stick bodies 10 to break the connecting ribs 13, allowing the use of only one tooth stick body 10.

[0043] Of course, since the main body 10 of the tooth stick is made of bamboo pulp fiber, the connecting rib 1313 connecting two adjacent main bodies 10 of the tooth stick can also be made of bamboo pulp fiber during processing, which also makes it easier to break the connecting rib 1313.

[0044] Furthermore, it should be noted that in this embodiment, the tooth-picking end provided with the tooth-picking part can be a tooth-picking tip 111, see [reference]. Figure 4 It can also be a dental floss 123 structure; you can choose the specific one based on the actual situation.

[0045] Example 6, based on any of the above examples,

[0046] In this embodiment, the outer surface of the dental stick body 10 is provided with a waterproof coating. The waterproof coating can be formed by water-based coating in the prior art or by waterproof membrane layer in the prior art, which enables the dental stick body 10 to have a certain waterproof performance after it is made.

[0047] Furthermore, the handle 11 is provided with several reinforcing ribs, which are spaced apart on the handle 11 to increase the surface friction of the handle 11 and prevent slippage. In addition, since the main body 10 of the toothbrush in this embodiment is formed by hot pressing bamboo pulp fiber, the strength of the handle 11 can be enhanced by providing reinforcing ribs.

[0048] Furthermore, the weight of the main body 10 of the dental stick is 0.1g-2g, and within this weight range, the density of the bamboo pulp fiberboard used to make the main body of the dental stick is in the range of 0.66g / cm³. 3 -1.33g / cm 3 Within this numerical range, the tensile strength of the dental rod body in this application can be achieved in the range of 7KN / ㎡-75KN / ㎡, resulting in a dental rod body with high strength and light weight. See the examples in Table 1 below for details:

[0049] Serial Number weight g <![CDATA[Density: g / cm 3 > Tensile strength kN / m2 1 0.2 0.66 7 2 0.4 0.66 13 3 0.6 0.66 24 4 1 0.66 35 5 1.2 0.66 48 6 1 1.33 55 7 1.2 1.33 75 8 2 1.33 135

[0050] Table 1

[0051] As shown in Table 1 above, this application uses bamboo pulp fiber to make the main body of the dental stick. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure the strength of the main body. With the dimensions of the main body remaining constant, the higher the density of the main body, the greater its weight and tensile strength. Specifically, the applicant tested the product on an existing tensile testing machine, as shown in Examples 1-8 above. Example 1 shows that with lower density, the product is lighter and has lower tensile strength. For example, in Examples 2, 3, 4, and 5, and Examples 6, 7, and 8, with the same density, the heavier product has a higher tensile strength than the lighter product. See Examples 4 and 6; with the same weight, higher density results in higher tensile strength. See also: products with higher density have higher tensile strength than those with lower density. Considering actual production costs, the preferred weight of the main body in this application is between 0.1g and 2g, and the preferred density is 0.66g / cm³. 3 -1.33g / cm 3 That would be the best.

[0052] The technical means disclosed in this utility model are not limited to those disclosed in the above embodiments, but also include technical solutions composed of any combination of the above technical features. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications are also considered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
