Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of toiletries technology, and in particular to a toothbrush holder. Background Technology

[0002] Personal hygiene is an essential part of daily life, with oral hygiene being particularly important. As a commonly used teeth-cleaning tool, the toothbrush plays a crucial role in promoting oral health.

[0003] In related fields, users place their toothbrushes in toothbrush cups after brushing their teeth for storage.

[0004] However, this storage method has the following drawbacks: after the toothbrush is used, moisture often remains on the surface and inside the toothbrush cup, and the toothbrush cup is usually a cylindrical structure with a closed bottom. In a humid environment, the toothbrush is prone to bacterial growth. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems in the prior art, this application provides a toothbrush holder.

[0006] The toothbrush holder provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] The toothbrush holder includes a base, a connecting bracket, and a storage frame. The base, the connecting bracket, and the storage frame are connected in sequence to form a hollow structure. The connecting bracket includes a first bracket and a second bracket. The first bracket and the second bracket are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the toothbrush holder. The two ends of the first bracket are fixed to the base and the storage frame, respectively.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the hollow structure allows air to flow freely between the storage frame, base and support, reducing water residue and thus reducing the possibility of bacteria growing on the toothbrush. At the same time, the hollow structure makes it convenient for users to clean the internal corners directly.

[0009] Preferably, the storage frame includes an outer frame and a barrier strip. The outer frame is arranged in a ring shape, and the two ends of the barrier strip are vertically fixed to the inner wall of the outer frame. The barrier strip divides the outer frame into two symmetrical frames, defined as the first frame and the second frame.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the outer frame is divided into two symmetrical frames, the first frame and the second frame, by means of the barrier strip, which achieves physical isolation and allows toothbrushes of different users to be stored separately, reducing the risk of cross-contamination. In addition, the barrier strip is vertically fixed to the inner wall of the outer frame, and the lateral support of the barrier strip improves the deformation resistance of the storage frame.

[0011] Preferably, the storage frame further includes an anti-slip sleeve, which is fixed to the outer peripheral wall of the outer frame.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the anti-slip sleeve improves the anti-slip function of the outer perimeter wall of the outer frame, reducing the risk of slipping when the user touches the outer perimeter wall of the outer frame.

[0013] Preferably, the outer peripheral wall of the outer frame is provided with a limiting groove, the anti-slip sleeve is fitted inside the limiting groove, and the outside of the anti-slip sleeve is in contact with the groove wall of the limiting groove.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the anti-slip sleeve is fitted into the limiting groove to achieve limiting and fixing of the anti-slip sleeve.

[0015] Preferably, the base includes a base body, a positioning frame, and a dividing strip. The lower surface of the positioning frame is vertically fixed to the upper surface of the base body and together they form a positioning groove. The dividing strip is vertically fixed to the upper surface of the base body. The two end faces of the dividing strip are fixedly connected to the two inner walls of the positioning frame, thereby dividing the positioning groove into two symmetrical grooves, which are defined as the first groove and the second groove, respectively.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the positioning groove formed by the fixed connection and mutual cooperation of the base and the positioning frame physically limits the toothbrush. The physical boundary of the groove restricts the lateral movement range of the toothbrush, reducing the chance of the toothbrush sliding out of the storage area due to external force. The dividing strip divides the positioning groove into a first groove and a second groove, reducing the probability of cross-slippage when multiple toothbrushes are stored at the same time.

[0017] Preferably, the separator strip, the base, and the positioning frame are integrally formed.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the separator strip, the seat body, and the positioning frame are integrally molded, which significantly improves the overall structural strength and resistance to deformation.

[0019] Preferably, the base further includes an anti-slip pad, which is fixed to the lower surface of the base.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the anti-slip mat improves the anti-slip function of the base. When the toothbrush holder comes into contact with the sink countertop, in a high-humidity environment, it effectively inhibits the slippage of the toothbrush holder caused by external forces and reduces the occurrence of the toothbrush holder tipping over due to the shift of the center of gravity.

[0021] Preferably, the outer edges of both the storage frame and the base are rounded.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the sharp edges of the outer edge of the storage frame and base are transformed into a smooth transition arc, reducing accidental bumps or scratches when users come into contact with the toothbrush holder.

[0023] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0024] 1. The symmetrical arrangement of the connecting bracket, along with the base and storage frame, forms a hollow structure, which enhances air circulation, reduces moisture and water stains, effectively lowers the risk of bacterial growth, and facilitates cleaning;

[0025] 2. By fixing the anti-slip sleeve to the outer perimeter of the outer frame and using anti-slip pads, the anti-slip performance is improved, reducing the risk of slipping when the user touches it;

[0026] 3. The outer frame is vertically divided into two symmetrical frames by a barrier strip, which achieves physical isolation of the toothbrush and improves the structure's resistance to deformation. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0030] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-2 This application will be described in further detail.

[0031] This application discloses a toothbrush holder. (See also...) Figure 1 A toothbrush holder includes a base 1, a connecting bracket, and a storage frame 6. The base 1, connecting bracket, and storage frame 6 are connected sequentially to form a hollow structure. The base 1 is used to support the toothbrush, the connecting bracket is used to fix the base 1 and the storage frame 6, and the storage frame 6 is used to restrict the placement of the toothbrush and distinguish the toothbrush placement area.

[0032] Specifically, the base 1 includes a base body 11, a positioning frame 12, and a partition strip 13. The lower surface of the positioning frame 12 is vertically fixed to the upper surface of the base body 11 and together they form a positioning groove. The positioning frame 12 is arranged in a ring shape, and the inner wall of the positioning frame 12 and the upper surface of the base body 11 together form a positioning groove.

[0033] In addition, the separator 13 is integrally formed with the base 11 and the positioning frame 12, which improves the overall structural strength and resistance to deformation.

[0034] Meanwhile, the partition strip 13 is fixed to the upper surface of the base 11. The partition strip 13 is horizontally set, and the two end faces of the partition strip 13 are fixedly connected to the two inner walls of the positioning frame 12, thereby dividing the positioning groove into two symmetrical grooves, which are defined as the first groove 2 and the second groove 3 respectively.

[0035] Specifically, the positioning frame 12 is composed of two semi-circular ends and a middle rectangular segment. The diameter of the semi-circular ends is the same as the width of the rectangular segment. The two semi-circular ends and the middle rectangular segment are smoothly transitioned to form a closed loop. The contour structure of the base 11 matches the contour structure of the positioning frame 12. The contour size of the positioning frame 12 is smaller than the contour size of the base 11. The lower surface of the positioning frame 12 is vertically fixed to the upper surface of the base 11. The outer edge of the lower surface of the positioning frame 12 and the outer edge of the upper surface of the base 11 form a connecting surface.

[0036] This demonstrates that the positioning groove formed by the fixed connection and mutual cooperation between the base 11 and the positioning frame 12 provides a physical limit for the toothbrush. The physical boundary of the groove limits the lateral movement range of the toothbrush, reducing the occurrence of the toothbrush sliding out of the storage area due to external force.

[0037] Furthermore, since the positioning frame 12 and the upper surface of the base 11 together form a positioning groove, and the inner wall of the positioning frame 12 and the upper surface of the base 11 together form the side wall and bottom surface of the positioning groove, forming a closed constraint boundary, the cross section of the separator 13 is semi-circular, the radius of the semi-circle is smaller than the height of the positioning frame 12, and the length of the separator 13 is the same as the diameter of the two semi-circular ends of the positioning frame 12. The separator 13 is vertically fixed to the upper surface of the base 11 and fixed at the central axis of symmetry of the positioning frame 12 and the base 11. Since the two end faces of the separator 13 are fixed to the two inner walls of the positioning frame 12, the positioning groove is divided into two symmetrical independent grooves, which are defined as the first groove 2 and the second groove 3, respectively. The setting of the separator 13 dividing the positioning groove into the first groove 2 and the second groove 3 reduces the probability of cross-slip when multiple toothbrushes are stored at the same time.

[0038] In addition, the base 1 also includes an anti-slip pad 14, which is fixedly attached to the lower surface of the base 11. The anti-slip pad 14 enhances the anti-slip function of the base 1. When the toothbrush holder comes into contact with the sink countertop, it effectively suppresses the slippage of the toothbrush holder caused by external forces in a high humidity environment, and reduces the occurrence of the toothbrush holder tipping over due to the shift of the center of gravity.

[0039] In addition, the storage frame 6 includes an outer frame 61 and a barrier strip 62. The outer frame 61 is arranged in a ring shape, and the two ends of the barrier strip 62 are vertically fixed to the inner wall of the outer frame 61. The barrier strip 62 divides the outer frame 61 into two symmetrical frames, defined as the first frame 7 and the second frame 8.

[0040] Specifically, the outer frame 61 is also composed of two semi-circular ends and a middle rectangular segment. The diameter of the semi-circular ends is the same as the width of the rectangular segment. The two semi-circular ends and the middle rectangular segment are smoothly transitioned to form a closed loop. The outline dimensions of the outer frame 61 match the outline dimensions of the base 11. The inner wall of the outer frame 61 forms a complete constraint boundary.

[0041] Furthermore, the barrier strip 62 is elongated, with its length being the same as the diameter of the semicircle. Both ends of the barrier strip 62 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer frame 61 via the geometric center axis of symmetry. The upper surface of the barrier strip 62 is flush with the upper surface of the outer frame 61, forming a continuous and smooth plane. The barrier strip 62 divides the annular space of the outer frame 61 into two independent storage areas, defined as the first frame 7 and the second frame 8, respectively, achieving physical isolation. This allows for the separate storage of toothbrushes from different users, reducing the risk of cross-contamination. The barrier strip 62 is fixed to the inner wall of the outer frame 61, and its lateral support enhances the deformation resistance of the storage frame 6.

[0042] Reference Figure 2 In addition, the storage frame 6 also includes an anti-slip sleeve 611. The outer peripheral wall of the outer frame 61 is provided with a limiting groove 612. The anti-slip sleeve 611 is fitted into the limiting groove 612. The side wall of the anti-slip sleeve 611 contacts the groove wall of the limiting groove 612. The anti-slip sleeve 611 is fixed to the outer peripheral wall of the storage frame 6 through the limiting groove 612.

[0043] The outer frame 61 has a circumferentially provided limiting groove 612 on its outer side wall. The width of the limiting groove 612 is adapted to the thickness of the anti-slip sleeve 611 to ensure that the anti-slip sleeve 611 is fully embedded in the limiting groove 612 without being exposed. The anti-slip sleeve 611 is an annular elastic element. The inner diameter of the anti-slip sleeve 611 is smaller than the width of the limiting groove 612 to form the clamping force required for interference fit, thereby reducing the probability of the anti-slip sleeve 611 falling off.

[0044] On the other hand, the connecting bracket includes a first bracket 4 and a second bracket 5. The first bracket 4 and the second bracket 5 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the toothbrush storage rack. The two ends of the first bracket 4 are fixed to the base 1 and the storage frame 6, respectively.

[0045] The first support 4 and the second support 5 are long cylindrical cross-sections with a circular shape. The upper plane of the first support 4 and the second support 5 are vertically fixed to the lower surface of the storage frame 6, and the lower plane of the first support 4 and the second support 5 are vertically fixed to the lower surface. The first support 4 and the second support 5 are distributed symmetrically on both sides of the toothbrush storage rack.

[0046] This demonstrates that the openwork structure allows air to flow freely between the storage frame 6, the base 1, and the connecting bracket, reducing water residue and thus lowering the possibility of bacteria growth on the toothbrush. At the same time, the openwork structure makes it convenient for users to directly clean the internal corners.

[0047] In summary, the base 1 and the storage frame 6 form a mirror-symmetric structure with the axis of the barrier strip 62 and the divider strip 13 as the symmetry reference. The first frame 7 and the second frame 8 are parallel to and match the contours of the first groove 2 and the second groove 3, which further limits the toothbrush and restricts the lateral movement range of the toothbrush, reducing the toothbrush from sliding out of the storage area due to external force.

[0048] In addition, the outer edges of the storage frame 6 and the base 1 are both rounded 9, and the sharp edges of the outer edges of the storage frame 6 and the base 1 are transformed into smooth arcs, reducing the accidental bumps or scratches that may occur when users come into contact with the toothbrush holder.

[0049] The implementation principle of a toothbrush storage holder according to an embodiment of this application is as follows:

[0050] The toothbrush holder disclosed in this application has a hollow structure formed by the base, connecting bracket and storage frame, which allows air to flow freely between the storage frame, base and bracket, reducing water residue and thus reducing the possibility of bacteria growing on the toothbrush. At the same time, the hollow structure makes it convenient for users to clean the internal corners directly.

[0051] The base includes a seat, a positioning frame, and a divider. The seat and the positioning frame together form a positioning groove for holding the toothbrush. The divider divides the positioning groove into two independent grooves, the first groove and the second groove, reducing the probability of cross-slippage when multiple toothbrushes are stored at the same time. The one-piece molding of the positioning frame and the divider improves the overall structural strength and resistance to deformation.

[0052] Meanwhile, an anti-slip pad is provided on the lower surface of the base, which enhances the stability of the storage rack in high humidity environments and reduces slippage or tipping caused by external forces.

[0053] The storage frame consists of an outer frame and a barrier strip. The barrier strip divides the space of the outer frame into two independent areas, the first frame and the second frame, reducing the risk of cross-contamination. In addition, the storage frame is equipped with an anti-slip sleeve, which enhances the anti-slip function of the outer wall of the outer frame and reduces the risk of slipping when the user touches the outer wall of the outer frame.

[0054] The connecting bracket includes a first bracket and a second bracket, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the storage rack to firmly connect the base and the storage frame, ensuring the stability and durability of the entire structure.

[0055] For user safety and convenience, the outer edges of both the storage frame and the base are rounded to reduce the risk of accidental injury from sharp edges.

[0056] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
