Abstract
The invention relates to a toothbrush having a traditional shape, which is novel in that it includes a soft or hard exchangeable handle that supplies toothpaste and mouthwash in a single movement so that said dental care products reach the surface of the bristles following a single one-handed movement. The upper part of the brush contains an inner distribution channel which conveys the content to the bristles in such a way that the toothpaste supply system is automated.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A toothbrush of conventional appearance the head of which may be of several sizes and forms, mentioning as a way of illustration but never as a limitation round or rectangular, with long or short or mixed bristles, the novelty of which lies in the fact that the lower part, that is, the handle of the toothbrush, is comprised of a biodegradable or recyclable container serving as cartridge or dispenser with diverse specifications, according to the needs, either soft or rigid with a plunger as has been described in detail in the body of the description.
That is, the toothbrush is composed of two parts, the first being the cartridge that acts as a handle and the second one is the tube that ends on the bristles' head and the lower end of which contains a female thread which perfectly screws on the handle. The handle is a mixed or single distributor that may dispense toothpaste or toothpaste/mouthwash. The upper tube of the brush has an inner channel running along its body up to the bristles, with the necessary number of exits through which the toothpaste and the mouthwash flow until they reach the top.
2 . Toothbrush with mixed cartridge enabling automatic injection characterized in that, as has been claimed in the preceding clause, represents an innovative device which, due to its composition and channels for the distribution of the content, allows for a supply of toothpaste and/or mouthwash to the bristles above in a single movement, thus eliminating the need to carry more than one cleaning device or element, apart from being of great utility for persons with disabilities, saving time and space and allowing for a pleasant tooth brushing wherever there is a tap of water.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
