Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oral hygiene products, specifically to an adaptive toothbrush. Background Technology

[0002] A toothbrush is a cleaning product with a handle. It is used to apply toothpaste to the brush head and then repeatedly brush all parts of the teeth. Usually, the toothbrush and toothpaste are separate; toothpaste needs to be applied to the brush head before brushing.

[0003] Traditional toothbrushes are usually made in one piece, including the handle and the bristles at the end of the handle. While these toothbrushes can meet the user's needs for cleaning teeth, the handle has a certain degree of rigidity. When different users apply different gripping forces to press the handle while brushing their teeth, the uncertainty in force control can easily lead to excessive force, causing severe wear and deformation of the bristles or even scratching the teeth. This results in a poor user experience and greatly reduces the portability and safety of using the toothbrush. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides an adaptive toothbrush. By designing an adaptive toothbrush, even if the user applies too much force during brushing, the toothbrush can automatically adjust to a suitable position through the flexible and resilient properties of its own part. This avoids excessive force from causing severe wear and deformation of the bristles or even scratching the teeth, greatly improving the safety and portability of the toothbrush and providing a better user experience.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides an adaptive toothbrush, including a grip and a cleaning part, with a flexible part provided between the grip and the cleaning part. One end of the flexible part is attached to the end of the grip, and the other end of the flexible part is attached to the tail of the cleaning part. The cleaning part includes a receiving cavity, bristles disposed inside the receiving cavity, and a massage part disposed on the back of the receiving cavity. This utility model connects the grip and the cleaning part through the flexible part, realizing an elastic connection between the grip and the cleaning part. Furthermore, it allows for convenient and quick flexible adjustment of the squeezing force between the cleaning part and the teeth according to the amount of force applied by the user during brushing, making operation more convenient and efficient.

[0006] An expansion sleeve is fitted inside the receiving cavity, and a fixing plate is embedded inside the expansion sleeve. Brush bristles are located at the lower part of the fixing plate. This utility model can seal the gap between the fixing plate and the receiving cavity after the fixing plate is inserted into the receiving cavity through the expansion sleeve, which greatly increases the tightness of the installation between the fixing plate and the receiving cavity and the portability of the detachable connection between the fixing plate and the receiving cavity, making it more convenient to use.

[0007] The tough part is a connector made of thermoplastic elastomer or thermoplastic rubber. Thermoplastic elastomer, or TPE material, is a new type of environmentally friendly material with a soft and comfortable surface, anti-slip properties, and recyclability. It is also relatively safe, non-toxic, and odorless, and easier to process. Moreover, the surface of TPE material is smooth, delicate, anti-slip, and non-sticky, making toothbrushes more comfortable and safer to use. Thermoplastic rubber, or TPR material, is a material that combines the elasticity of rubber and the processing characteristics of thermoplastic plastics. It has a good feel, temperature resistance, and recyclability. It not only has the high elasticity and high resilience of rubber, but also the injection molding characteristics of thermoplastic plastics, which means that vulcanization is not required during the manufacturing process, and it can be directly processed and molded. TPR material is also more environmentally friendly and safer, and it also meets the current pursuit of sustainable development in society.

[0008] The massage section includes multiple massage columns evenly arranged on the back of the receiving cavity. This invention can achieve oral and tongue massage while brushing teeth by using the massage columns on the back of the receiving cavity, which greatly improves the comfort and experience of using the toothbrush.

[0009] The massage column is made of silicone.

[0010] The expansion sleeve is a rubber sleeve.

[0011] The grip is made of plastic, and an anti-slip sleeve is fitted on the outside of the grip. The anti-slip sleeve should be made of non-slip and wear-resistant rubber. The anti-slip sleeve is fitted on the outside of the plastic rod. The protective sleeve can effectively prevent the user from slipping while holding the grip to brush their teeth, which greatly improves the user's grip comfort and makes operation more convenient.

[0012] In summary, compared with the prior art, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0013] 1. This utility model improves the traditional one-piece toothbrush design by connecting the grip and cleaning parts through a flexible part. This not only ensures the portability and stability of the user when holding the grip while brushing, but also allows the flexible part to adaptively adjust the squeezing action between the cleaning part and the teeth according to the user's excessive brushing force. This greatly improves the portability and comfort of brushing and makes operation more convenient.

[0014] 2. This utility model can achieve flexible connection between the cleaning part and the grip part by using a tough part made of thermoplastic elastomer or thermoplastic rubber. At the same time, it can also adaptively adjust the squeezing action of the bristles on the cleaning part against the teeth according to the different brushing force of the user, thereby improving the service life of the bristles and better preventing the teeth from being scratched, resulting in a better user experience.

[0015] 3. This utility model can effectively protect and prevent slippage of the grip by using a small rubber sleeve supported by rubber material, thus avoiding slippage when the user holds the grip while brushing teeth, and greatly improving the user's grip comfort.

[0016] 4. This utility model can seal the gap between the fixing plate and the receiving cavity after the fixing plate is inserted into the receiving cavity through the expansion sleeve, which greatly increases the tightness of the installation between the fixing plate and the receiving cavity and the portability of the detachable connection between the fixing plate and the receiving cavity, making it more convenient to use.
