Description

antibacterial toothbrush

[0001] The present invention relates to an antibacterial toothbrush, and more particularly, to an antibacterial toothbrush having an antibacterial effect in which a bronze organic thin plate having antibacterial, sterilizing, and non-toxic functions is mounted on the head portion where toothbrush bristles are planted.

[0002]

[0003] In general, when looking at the properties of bronzeware, it was revealed that dishes made of bronzeware have a sterilizing effect, as well as the function of preserving the taste of food by reacting with toxic substances, and when storing lettuce or vegetables, they have the function of keeping them fresh for a longer time than when stored in a regular refrigerator.

[0004] According to academic reports, along with research results showing that brass eliminates 99.9% of food poisoning bacteria, "when a brass plate (30cm wide x 30cm long), the material used for brass bowls and spoons, was placed in a 200-liter aquarium, 99.9% of vibrio bacteria were eliminated from fish after 40 hours, and 90% of vibrio bacteria in shellfish disappeared after 48 hours," interest in traditional brassware (bronze-based utensils) has been renewed.

[0005] The toothbrushes we use have a lot of food residue on them, and even if we clean them thoroughly, there are still traces of food residue left behind. If we do not clean our toothbrushes properly, there is a risk of bacteria growing, and these bacteria can even cause gum disease.

[0006] In order to have a hygienic toothbrush, a separate toothbrush UV sterilizer is being purchased and used.

[0007]

[0008] Korean Patent No. 10-2183589 (registered on November 20, 2020) introduces an “eco-friendly toothbrush with improved antibacterial performance.”

[0009] The above-mentioned eco-friendly toothbrush with improved antibacterial performance is composed of toothbrush bristles, a head portion, and a handle portion, wherein the toothbrush bristles contain charcoal, the handle portion and the head portion contain straw, the head portion is integral with the handle portion, the head portion is bent to form an acute angle of more than 10° and less than 20° with respect to the longitudinal direction of the handle portion, and the charcoal is contained in an amount of 10 to 20% by weight based on the total weight of the toothbrush bristles.

[0010] However, the eco-friendly toothbrush with improved antibacterial performance mentioned above does not include a configuration that provides antibacterial and sterilizing effects to the head portion where the toothbrush bristles are planted.

[0011]

[0012] Accordingly, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an antibacterial toothbrush in which a bronze-based thin plate is bonded to the head of a toothbrush body using a high-frequency bonding method, so that when washing with water after brushing teeth, residual toothpaste, food residue, etc. are effectively removed by the bronze-based thin plate mounted on the head, and also the sterilizing and antibacterial effects of the bronze-based thin plate prevent viruses and bacteria from propagating in food residue caught in the toothbrush bristles.

[0013] Another object of the present invention is to provide an antibacterial toothbrush in which a bronze organic foil in the form of a foil is bonded to the head of the toothbrush body using a high-frequency bonding method.

[0014] Another object of the present invention is to provide an antibacterial toothbrush in which a bronze organic material deposition layer is formed by spraying the bronze organic material onto the head of the toothbrush body.

[0015] Another object of the present invention is to provide an antibacterial toothbrush in which a flat bronze-organic wire is mounted on the head of the toothbrush holder.

[0016] Another object of the present invention is to provide an antibacterial toothbrush in which a plurality of bronze organic chips formed in a cylindrical shape are inserted into the head of the toothbrush body.

[0017] Another object of the present invention is to provide an antibacterial toothbrush in which the toothbrush handle is formed of bronze.
