Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dental floss picks, and in particular to dental floss picks with anti-slip handles. Background Technology

[0002] Dental floss picks are dental cleaning products with pre-applied floss, making them convenient for users. Compared to traditional toothpicks, they are easier to use and suitable for people who are not good at using traditional toothpicks. They can also more easily reach between teeth and remove food debris.

[0003] Chinese patent discloses a dental floss pick (authorization announcement number CN208876842U). The patented technology includes: a dental floss pick body, with a first support and a second support extending from the front end of the dental floss pick body, and at least one dental floss disposed between the first support and the second support; at least one protrusion is disposed on at least one side wall of the second support; and the dental floss pick body is provided with an anti-slip area, which can clean dirt on multiple sides of the teeth and improve the ease of use of the dental floss pick.

[0004] While this patented technology offers the advantage of ease of use, it still has some shortcomings. During use, the small handle of the floss pick makes it slippery and easy to lose control when hands are wet. Excessive or uneven force during use can also cause it to slip and fall off. The fallen floss pick becomes contaminated and cannot be used directly, increasing the number of replacements and resulting in waste, which affects the user experience and effectiveness. Therefore, those skilled in the art have provided floss picks with non-slip handles to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content

[0005] 1. Technical Solution

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] This utility model is a dental floss stick with a non-slip handle, comprising,

[0008] Dental floss picks include a mounting head, a handle located at the lower end of the mounting head, and a dental floss body fixed inside the mounting head;

[0009] The anti-slip structure includes a first and a second retainer sleeved on the outside of the handle, a spring fixed between the first and second retainers, two sets of first straps on the outer wall of the first retainer, two sets of second straps on the outer wall of the second retainer, a female hook and loop fastener on the outer wall of the first strap, a female hook and loop fastener on the outer wall of the second strap, and anti-slip textures evenly distributed on the outer walls of the first and second retainers.

[0010] as well as;

[0011] The toothpick structure includes a storage slot inside the mounting head and a toothpick body located inside the storage slot.

[0012] Furthermore, silicone particles are provided on both the front and rear sides of the lower end of the handle in an equidistant manner;

[0013] Specifically, silicone can be used to rub the tongue coating to clean it.

[0014] Furthermore, a rubber ring is sleeved on the outer wall of the dental floss body, and a connecting strip is provided at one end of the rubber ring. The inner wall of the mounting head is provided with symmetrically distributed operating grooves corresponding to the connecting strip.

[0015] Specifically, the rubber ring moves on the outside of the floss body by gripping the connecting ring, thereby scraping away and cleaning food debris adhering to the floss body. The operating groove makes it easy for the operator to operate the connecting strip located inside the mounting head.

[0016] Furthermore, each of the handles has symmetrically distributed positioning holes inside, and both the first and second retaining shells have positioning blocks that slide into the positioning holes on their inner walls. A ball bearing is rotatably installed inside one end of each positioning block.

[0017] Specifically, when the first and second retainers are fitted onto the outside of the handle, the positioning block is inserted into the positioning hole to position the first and second retainers, preventing them from slipping off the outside of the handle. At the same time, the ball bearings slide on the outside of the handle, facilitating the movement of the positioning block on the outside of the handle during the assembly of the first and second retainers, and reducing the resistance when the positioning block contacts the handle.

[0018] Furthermore, the spring is provided with symmetrically distributed and slidably inserted positioning pins and positioning cylinders. One end of the positioning pin is connected to the inner wall of the first retaining case, and one end of the positioning cylinder is connected to the second retaining case.

[0019] Specifically, during the extension and retraction process, the spring is limited by the sliding of the positioning pin inside the positioning cylinder, preventing the spring from shifting outward.

[0020] Furthermore, one end of the toothpick body is provided with an installation ball, and both ends of the installation ball are provided with a rotating shaft that is rotatably installed on the inner wall of the storage groove. The inner wall of the storage groove is provided with a card seat, and one end of the installation ball is provided with a card block.

[0021] Specifically, the mounting ball rotates inside the storage slot via a pivot, which in turn drives the toothpick body to rotate. The mounting ball is positioned inside the holder by a locking block.

[0022] 2. Beneficial effects

[0023] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this utility model are:

[0024] This invention allows the installation head to be operated by gripping the handle, which in turn drives the floss body to squeeze the gaps between teeth, thus carrying out food debris from the gaps.

[0025] Meanwhile, a protective structure can be attached to the outside of the handle, with two sets of straps (one and two) to attach to the fingers, increasing the force-bearing surface of the hand and improving the stability when gripping. This avoids the problem of the handle easily coming loose due to its small size, which would increase the number of replacements. The anti-slip structure is modular and can be used as needed, improving the flexibility of using dental floss picks. The anti-slip structure is also reusable, reducing resource consumption.

[0026] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description
