Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning tools, and in particular to a cup rim brush. Background Technology

[0002] In daily life and work, water cups are frequently used utensils, and their cleanliness directly affects the user's health. As the part that comes into direct contact with the human mouth, the rim of the cup is very prone to leaving tea stains, coffee stains, and lipstick marks, especially on the rims of cups used by female users. These stains not only affect appearance but may also breed bacteria, posing a potential threat to human health. Therefore, it is particularly important to focus on cleaning the rim of the cup.

[0003] However, common brushes on the market often fail to apply precise pressure to the rim of a cup, resulting in poor cleaning and requiring users to spend considerable time and effort repeatedly wiping, leading to low cleaning efficiency. Furthermore, most common brushes are limited in function, only meeting the cleaning needs of certain areas of the cup and unable to thoroughly clean the entire cup, including the rim, body, and bottom. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a brush that can effectively clean both the rim and the entire cup. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a cup rim brush that is designed to clean the cup rim area efficiently and reliably.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A cup brush includes an inner bone rod, a U-shaped fork at the bottom of the inner bone rod, a handle that wraps around the inner bone rod, and a silicone brush head that wraps around the U-shaped fork. The silicone brush head includes two silicone core pillars that respectively wrap around the fork arms of the U-shaped fork, and silicone bristles arranged around the outer peripheral wall of the silicone core pillars. A cleaning channel is formed between the two silicone core pillars to allow the cup rim or cup body to be inserted. The length of the silicone bristles located between the two silicone core pillars is shorter than that of the silicone bristles located on other parts of the silicone core pillars.

[0007] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the silicone bristles on the silicone core are arranged in layers from top to bottom, with each layer of silicone bristles arranged around the circumference of the silicone core.

[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, under vertical projection, the silicone bristles of adjacent layers are arranged in an alternating pattern.

[0009] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, silicone bristles are provided on the bottom end surface of the silicone core post.

[0010] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the handle is a silicone handle and is integrally formed with the silicone brush head.

[0011] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the top of the silicone handle is provided with a hanging hole. The beneficial effects of this utility model are: the cup brush provided by this utility model can precisely conform to the shape of the cup rim through a unique cleaning clamp, allowing the silicone bristles to fit tightly against the rim, concentrating the cleaning force on the rim, greatly improving the cleaning effect, eliminating the need for repeated wiping by the user, saving cleaning time and effort, and significantly improving cleaning efficiency.

[0016] This utility model provides a cup rim brush. To make the purpose, technical solution, and effects of this utility model clearer and more explicit, the following describes this utility model in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0017] Please see Figs. 1 to 3 This utility model provides a cup rim brush, including an inner bone rod 11, a U-shaped fork 12 disposed at the bottom end of the inner bone rod 11, a handle 2 that wraps around the inner bone rod 11, and a silicone brush head 3 that wraps around the U-shaped fork 12. The silicone brush head 3 includes two silicone core pillars 31 that respectively wrap around the fork arms of the U-shaped fork 12, and silicone bristles 32 arranged around the outer peripheral wall of the silicone core pillars 31. A cleaning channel 4 is formed between the two silicone core pillars 31 to allow the cup rim or cup body to be inserted.

[0018] When using this cup rim brush for cleaning, the user holds the handle 2, which encloses the inner core rod 11, and uses the stable grip provided by the handle 2 to control the brush. When cleaning the cup rim, the cup rim is inserted into the cleaning channel 4 formed between the two silicone core pillars 31. Since the outer peripheral wall between the two silicone core pillars 31 is covered with silicone bristles 32, the cup rim is in close contact with the silicone bristles 32. The user applies force through the handle 2, which drives the silicone brush head 3 to move, allowing the silicone bristles 32 to perform all-round, multi-angle friction cleaning of the cup rim, effectively removing residual tea stains, coffee stains, lipstick marks, and other stains. In fact, the cup rim brush can clean the cup body at the same time as cleaning the cup rim, improving cleaning efficiency.

[0019] When cleaning the cup body or bottom, insert the silicone brush head 3 into the cup 5. At this time, the silicone bristles 32 on the bottom surface of the silicone core 31 will first contact the bottom of the cup. The user applies pressure through the handle 2 and rotates or moves it back and forth, which moves the entire silicone brush head 3. The silicone bristles 32 on the outside of the silicone core 31 then scrub the stains on the inner wall of the cup body.

[0020] Furthermore, the length of the silicone bristles 32 located between the two silicone core pillars 31 is shorter than that of the silicone bristles 32 located on other parts of the silicone core pillars 31, that is, the silicone core pillars 31 are provided with long silicone bristles and short silicone bristles.

[0021] When the cup rim is inserted into the cleaning channel, the shorter silicone bristles 32 can fit more closely to the edge and inside of the rim, quickly and accurately targeting stains. This avoids the longer silicone bristles 32 dispersing cleaning power due to excessive bending when cleaning the rim, thus more efficiently removing residual tea stains, lipstick marks, and other stains, significantly improving the precision and effectiveness of cleaning the rim. The longer silicone bristles 32 are located on the outside of the silicone core 31 and can be used to scrub and clean the cup body.

[0022] In addition, the shortened length of the silicone bristles 32 between the two silicone core pillars 31 effectively narrows the gap between them. This narrower gap, combined with the shorter bristles, allows the brush head's cleaning channel to more tightly and securely grip the cup rim. During cleaning, the brush head is less prone to deformation or wobbling due to force, ensuring a precise fit to the cup rim and preventing the bristles from becoming loose due to excessive gaps, thus maintaining cleaning effectiveness.

[0023] The cup brush provided by this utility model can precisely fit the shape of the cup rim through the unique cleaning channel 4, so that the silicone bristles 32 fit tightly with the cup rim, concentrate the cleaning force on the cup rim, greatly improve the cleaning effect, eliminate the need for repeated wiping by the user, save cleaning time and effort, and significantly improve cleaning efficiency.

[0024] Specifically, the silicone bristles 32 on the silicone core 31 are arranged in layers from top to bottom, with each layer of bristles 32 surrounding the circumference of the silicone core 31. On one hand, the layered bristle structure enhances the bristles' elastic deformation capability. When cleaning water cups 5 with different diameters and curvatures, the bristles can adaptively adjust to the shape of the cup wall. Whether it's the rim of a narrow-mouthed cup or the body and bottom of a wide-mouthed cup, the bristles can closely conform to the surface, reaching deep into crevices and corners, effectively cleaning hard-to-reach areas. This greatly improves the applicability of the cup brush to different water cups 5, expanding the product's range of applications. On the other hand, it significantly increases the contact area between the bristles and the rim, body, and bottom of the cup. During cleaning, more bristles can simultaneously contact and rub against stains, more efficiently removing stubborn tea stains, coffee stains, and other dirt. Compared to ordinary, evenly distributed bristles, the cleaning power is stronger.

[0025] In vertical projection, the silicone bristles 32 of adjacent layers are staggered. During cleaning, the staggered bristles generate friction in different directions. Compared to the unidirectional cleaning force of neatly arranged bristles, this arrangement more effectively breaks down stubborn stains such as dried tea stains and coffee stains. Simultaneously, the staggered bristles can flexibly adjust their direction and angle under pressure, better adapting to the irregular curved surface of the cup 5. Whether it's a straight or curved cup, it can fit snugly against the cup wall, improving cleaning flexibility and adaptability.

[0026] Preferably, the bottom surface of the silicone core 31 is provided with silicone bristles 32. When the entire cup brush is placed in the cup, it applies precise force in a unique position perpendicular to the bottom of the cup. The silicone bristles 32 at the bottom of the cup brush can quickly and powerfully break down stubborn stains such as limescale and tea stains.

[0027] In this embodiment, the handle 2 is a silicone handle 2 and is integrally formed with the silicone brush head 3, with no connection gaps, which can effectively prevent moisture and dirt from entering the connection area between the handle 2 and the brush head. During long-term use, the handle 2 and the brush head will not loosen or fall off due to frequent bending and pulling, effectively avoiding the problem of shortening the product's service life due to damage to the connection structure, and enhancing the overall stability and durability of the cup brush.

[0028] The silicone handle 2 has a hanging hole 21 at its top. The hanging hole 21 is designed to allow users to hang the handle 2 on wall hooks, storage shelves, or other locations, which helps with the storage and drying of the cup brush.

[0029] Cup rim brushes often retain food residue and saliva after use, creating a breeding ground for bacteria. Cup rim brushes made of antibacterial silicone, with their low surface energy and non-polar properties, effectively inhibit the adhesion and proliferation of harmful bacteria such as E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus. During cleaning, the antibacterial silicone bristles and brush head reduce bacterial residue on the cup rim, minimizing the possibility of cross-contamination. The smooth surface of the antibacterial silicone is also stain-resistant, making it difficult for dirt and bacteria to adhere. For daily cleaning and maintenance, users only need to rinse with water or wipe with a small amount of detergent to quickly remove stains from the surface of the cup rim brush and restore it to a clean state.
