AI Technical Summary
Conventional hairbrushes transfer force directly from the handle to the scalp, lacking effective dampening mechanisms to soften the brushing experience.
A hairbrush design featuring an elastic connecting element in the form of a bellows between the handle and brush head, allowing the brush head to move elastically relative to the handle, thereby dampening pressure and pulling forces.
The elastic bellows mechanism reduces pressure and pulling forces during brushing, providing a gentler treatment of the scalp.

Abstract
Description
Technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a hairbrush for the care of the scalp and hair. State of the art
[0002] Conventional hairbrushes typically have a rigid connection between the handle and the brush head. This means that the force exerted by the user is transferred almost directly to the scalp. Some brushes are known to have air cushions or elastic bristle fields. However, these solutions do not affect the force transmission between the handle and the brush head as a whole. Object of the invention
[0003] The invention is based on the objective of providing a hairbrush in which the forces occurring during brushing are dampened before they reach the brush head, in order to enable gentler treatment of the scalp. Solution to the task
[0004] The problem is solved by a hairbrush with a handle (1) and a brush head (2), wherein an elastic connecting element (3) is arranged between the handle (1) and the brush head (2). This connecting element is designed as a bellows and allows a spring-like movement of the brush head relative to the handle.
[0005] During use, the brush head can move elastically relative to the handle, thus dampening pressure and pulling forces. After the pressure is released, the brush head automatically returns to its original position due to the elastic properties of the bellows. Example of implementation
[0006] The handle (1) is elongated and serves to ensure safe handling of the hairbrush. The brush head (2) has a bristle field (4). This bristle field can consist of plastic pins (5), in particular nylon pins, as well as natural bristles (6), for example boar bristles.
[0007] The bellows (3) arranged between the handle (1) and the brush head (2) is preferably made of an elastic material such as rubber or elastomer and allows a springy movement of the brush head during the brushing process.
