Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of toiletries, and in particular to a composite interdental brush. Background Technology
[0002] Dental floss can reach the gaps between teeth that toothbrushes cannot reach, effectively removing food debris and plaque. Regular flossing can prevent cavities and gum disease.
[0003] like Figure 1 The dental floss 20 shown has a main working part made of a thin thread 21 made of nylon or polyester fiber. When using it, the thin thread 21 is moved to the top of the tooth and slid down into the gap between the teeth. The thin thread 21 is driven to slide and clean food debris and plaque from the tooth surface. In order to ensure that the dental floss 20 can enter the gap between the teeth smoothly, the diameter of the thin thread 21 is small, which also results in a small contact area between the thin thread 21 and the teeth and low cleaning efficiency. Figure 2 The interdental brush 30 consists of a wire 31 and a brush 32 fixed to the surface of the wire 31. The brush 32 can efficiently remove stains from between teeth. However, due to the presence of the brush 32, the working part of the interdental brush 30 cannot enter the gaps between teeth as smoothly as dental floss 20. When using it, the wire 31 needs to be inserted into a larger gap at the root of the tooth. This process will press on the gums. Therefore, if you are not careful when using the interdental brush 30, the wire 31 may pierce the gums and cause bleeding.
[0004] Given the aforementioned problems with existing dental floss and interdental brushes, it is necessary to design an interdental cleaning tool that offers both effective cleaning and ease of use. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a composite interdental brush that can quickly clean food debris and plaque from between teeth while avoiding damage to the gums during use.
[0006] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0007] A composite interdental brush, comprising: a plastic handle, a handle sleeve, and a cleaning line;
[0008] The plastic rod includes an integrally formed grip and an arc-shaped support. The arc-shaped support has two mating ends. The cleaning line is located on the arc-shaped support. The two mating ends are used to keep the cleaning line taut. The outer wall of the grip has a sliding groove.
[0009] The inner wall of the sleeve is provided with a protrusion, the sleeve is used to wrap the grip part, and the protrusion is embedded in the groove;
[0010] The cleaning line includes a transition section and two main cleaning sections. The main cleaning sections are located on the cleaning line at the position where they contact the docking end. The thickness of the transition section is less than the thickness of the main cleaning sections, and the main cleaning sections are provided with bristles.
[0011] In one embodiment, the end of the grip is provided with a cleaning hook.
[0012] In one embodiment, the sleeve has a single-sided opening structure, and the grip portion is slidably disposed within the sleeve.

[0034] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 This utility model provides a composite interdental brush 10, which includes: a plastic rod 100, a rod sleeve 200 and a cleaning line 300.
[0035] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 The plastic rod 100 includes an integrally formed gripping part 110 and an arc-shaped support part 120. The arc-shaped support part 120 is provided with two docking ends 121. The cleaning line 300 is provided on the arc-shaped support part 120. The two docking ends 121 are used to keep the cleaning line 300 taut. The outer wall of the gripping part 110 is provided with a sliding groove 111.
[0036] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 6 The inner wall of the sleeve 200 is provided with a protrusion 210, the sleeve 200 is used to wrap the grip part 110, and the protrusion 210 is embedded in the groove 111;
[0037] Please see Figure 5 The cleaning line 300 includes a transition section 310 and two main cleaning sections 320. The main cleaning sections 320 are located on the cleaning line 300 at the contact point with the docking end 121. The thickness of the transition section 310 is less than the thickness of the main cleaning sections 320, and the main cleaning sections 320 are provided with bristles 321. Preferably, the transition section 310 and the main cleaning sections 320 are integrally formed.
[0038] When using, first insert the plastic rod 100 into the rod sleeve 200, and adjust the extension length of the plastic rod 100 according to the user's usage habits. Hold the rod sleeve 200 and place the bow-shaped support part 120 into the mouth. Adjust the position so that the cleaning line 300 moves between two teeth. Align the transition part 310 with the gap between the teeth and apply slight force to allow the transition part 310 to slide into the gap between the teeth. At this time, push the plastic rod 100 to allow the main cleaning part 320 to enter the gap between the teeth and use the bristles 321 on it to clean the dirt in the gap between the teeth.
[0039] It should be noted that the transition section 310 is the thinnest part of the cleaning line 300, which aligns the transition section 310 with the interdental space, allowing the cleaning line 300 to easily enter or leave the gap between teeth. Compared with the existing interdental brush 30, the soft cleaning line 300 replaces the hard wire 31, making it less likely to damage the gums during the cleaning process. In addition, the arched support 120 can keep the cleaning line 300 taut, allowing the bristles 321 to make smooth contact with the tooth surface, thus improving cleaning efficiency.
[0040] The above-mentioned composite interdental brush 10 has the following beneficial effects:
[0041] 1. The center of the cleaning line 300 is a smooth transition part 310, which makes it easy for the cleaning line 300 to be inserted into the gap between teeth. The two ends of the transition part 310 are the main cleaning parts 320 with bristles 321, which allows the cleaning line 300 to be easily inserted into the gap between teeth and to efficiently clean the dirt in the gap between teeth using the bristles 321.
[0042] 2. The sleeve 200 and the plastic rod 100 are slidably connected. Applying force can push the plastic rod 100 out of the sleeve 200, effectively extending the plastic rod 100. This makes it easier for the user to move the bow-shaped support 120 to the teeth that need to be cleaned. The sleeve 200 and the plastic rod 100 are detachable. After cleaning, the plastic rod 100 can be removed, and the sleeve 200 can be reused, making it environmentally friendly and convenient.
[0043] Please see Figure 4 In one embodiment, the end of the gripping part 110 is provided with a cleaning hook 112, which can remove larger food residues from between the teeth.
[0044] In one embodiment, the sleeve 200 has a single-sided opening structure, and the grip portion 110 is slidably disposed within the sleeve 200. The single-sided opening structure facilitates user assembly and disassembly.
[0045] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 Preferably, the plastic rod 100 also has an adjustment part 130, which is located on the grip part 110 and protrudes outside the rod sleeve 200. The surface of the adjustment part 130 is provided with first anti-slip stripes 131. This facilitates the user in adjusting the extension length of the plastic rod 100.
[0046] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, the outer wall of the sleeve 200 is provided with a second anti-slip stripe 220, which makes it easier for the user to hold and increases the friction between the outer wall of the sleeve 200 and the fingers, making it less likely to slip during the teeth cleaning process.
[0047] Please see Figure 7The bow-shaped support 120 has cleaning teeth 122 on the side facing away from the 300 cleaning line. The cleaning teeth 122 are used to clean the tongue coating.
