Description

Dual tension-adjustable floss holder

[0001] The present invention relates to a dental floss holder capable of dual tension adjustment, and more particularly, to a dental floss holder for fixing a dental floss for removing foreign substances located between teeth, wherein the dental floss tension can be dually adjusted and maintained by a winding portion for maintaining dental floss tension and a dual dental floss tension maintenance means rotatably connected to the winding portion for maintaining dental floss tension, thereby doubly adjusting the tension of the dental floss that may become loose or weak during use, thereby preventing dental floss waste.

[0002] According to the World Health Organization (WHO)'s oral health survey of each country, the average number of cavities experienced by 12-year-old children in Korea is 33, more than double the global average of 161.

[0003] The number of times Koreans brush their teeth per day is 235, which is significantly higher than the 197 times in Japan.

[0004] The reason why the incidence of gum disease is high despite frequent brushing of teeth can be attributed to low information about the use of dental floss.

[0005] Currently, in European countries and most developed countries, it is recommended to use dental floss after meals to remove food stuck between teeth.

[0006] While the use of dental floss holders and dental floss is high in some Asian countries, authorities still find that toothpicks are used more often after meals than dental floss due to a lack of awareness and communication about how to use them.

[0007] As you may know, dental floss is useful for removing food particles between teeth, and can also be useful for removing plaque if you have gum disease.

[0008] The dental floss holder is a tool that is formed in a Y shape to make the use of dental floss easier.

[0009] Typically, dental floss holders are used by fixing dental floss to the two ends of a Y shape to achieve the desired tension.

[0010] However, dental floss holders using conventional technology have the following problems.

[0011] Conventional dental floss holders simply hold the floss in place, and when the floss becomes loose due to use, it has the problem of hindering the removal of foreign substances between teeth.

[0012] Additionally, if the floss does not maintain the desired tension, the floss must be removed and a new floss must be fixed and used again, which reduces the usability of the floss.

[0013] In addition, the part of the dental floss holder where the dental floss is hung is inserted into the user's mouth for use. However, in the case of conventional technology, this part is always exposed to the outside, so it is contaminated with external contaminants, etc., and needs to be washed when reused, which is a problem that makes use inconvenient.

[0014] Additionally, conventional dental floss holders often pulled out more floss than necessary, causing the problem of floss waste.

[0015] Considering this, a dental floss holder was proposed in Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2020-0052539 (Publication date: (2020.05.15.)).

[0016] In view of this, a conventional general dental floss holder comprises a head including a pair of ribs each having a hook formed at the tip thereof for hooking dental floss, a body having a winding hole formed through the middle of the head, a locking pole formed around the winding hole, and an insertion hole formed at the bottom for attaching and detaching a dental floss container, a winding portion that is rotatably inserted and installed into the winding hole of the body, a part of the locking pole is hooked and fixed, a part of the dental floss coming out of the dental floss container is hooked and rotates together, and a cutter formed around the winding wheel and provided for removing used dental floss.

[0017] In addition, the locking pole is formed in a cantilever shape that is elastically deformable with one end thereof as the center, and a locking projection is formed at the tip thereof to protrude in the longitudinal direction of the locking pole, and a locking groove is formed in the cylindrical insertion portion of the winding wheel at a predetermined interval along a trajectory that comes into contact with the locking projection when the winding wheel rotates, so that the winding wheel is fixedly provided by inserting the locking projection into the locking groove.

[0018] And, the winding wheel is configured to include a penetrating member that penetrates the winding hole and has penetrating slits at both ends, a fixing projection formed protruding on one side to be fitted into the penetrating slit formed at one end of the penetrating member, a rotating handle including the locking groove formed around the fixing projection, a fixing member that is fitted into the penetrating slit formed at the other end of the penetrating member, and a joint that is fitted into the fixing member.

[0019] However, the conventional dental floss holder configured in this way has the disadvantage of easily losing the tension of the dental floss because the tension of the dental floss is maintained in one winding part as described above.

[0020] Accordingly, the present invention has been devised to solve the above-described problem, and is a dental floss holder that fixes a dental floss for removing foreign substances located between teeth, wherein the tension of the dental floss is doubly adjustable and maintained by a winding portion for maintaining dental floss tension and a double dental floss tension maintenance means rotatably connected to the winding portion for maintaining dental floss tension, thereby doubly adjusting the tension of the dental floss that may become loose or weak during use, thereby preventing dental floss waste. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a dental floss holder capable of dual tension adjustment.

[0021] Other objects of the present invention will become clear as the technology progresses.
