Definitions
- the invention relates to a brush part for an electric toothbrush, with a support tube, on which a bristle holder with a plurality of bristles is held, and which can be plugged onto a receptacle of a handpiece of the electric toothbrush. Furthermore, the invention relates to an electric toothbrush with a handpiece and with a brush part of the above type.
- Such a brush part and such an electric toothbrush are generally known and commercially available.
- An electric motor and an accumulator are accommodated in the handpiece of the electric toothbrush.
- the bristle carrier held on the brush part is rotatably or pivotably attached to the carrier tube.
- a corresponding rotational movement generated by the electric motor is transmitted to the bristle carrier via corresponding shafts and joints.
- the bristles are set in a cleaning movement.
- the bristles can be placed on the tooth surface by a user and used to care for the teeth.
- the bristles of the brush part wear out over time, so they have to be replaced.
- the brush part can be plugged onto the handpiece and can therefore be replaced.
- the support tube of the brush part and the receptacle of the handpiece are matched to one another in such a way that they can be joined together in a form-fitting manner. In this way, the brush part is positively fixed on the handpiece.
- Attaching and, in particular, removing the brush part from the handpiece must not require too much effort from the user. For this reason, as mentioned, only a positive connection between the support tube and the receptacle is provided. A press fit or the like is not possible. As a result, the carrier tube and the receptacle usually still have some play.
- the object of the invention is to provide a brush part for an electric toothbrush, which enables a play-free connection to the handpiece, without this requiring a greater effort by the user when attaching or removing the brush part.
- the spring means ensures that the support tube and thus the brush part is arranged without play on the receptacle and thus on the handpiece. Unwanted movements of the brush part when switched on and the resulting noise and vibrations are thus reliably avoided. At the same time, the spring means do not require any special effort on the part of the user when the brush part is attached to the handpiece. Due to the resilient properties of the spring means, the user only has to overcome a small resistance in order to push back the spring means and to push the carrier tube onto the receptacle. This overcoming a resistance does not, however, represent a great effort and thus does not reduce the comfort for the user, but rather is interpreted by the user as an indication that the brush part is now correctly attached to the handpiece.
- the brush part is fixed via the spring means on the holder of the handpiece in such a way that no relative movements between the profile sleeve and the holder occur when pressed on (better when the brush head is placed on the tooth surface) and with very small pressure forces. This means that even the smallest movements of the holder are always reliably transferred to the mouthpiece.
- the spring means are either attached to the brush part or they are attached to the handpiece and / or to the receptacle and / or can be plugged onto the receptacle.
- the spring means can therefore be assigned to the component in which they are best feasible due to the design. This can be not only the brush part, but also the handpiece, and in particular the receptacle there. It is also possible that the spring means can be plugged onto the handpiece and / or onto the receptacle as a separate component.
- the spring means are assigned to the brush part, a sleeve which can be inserted into the carrier tube and which has the spring means is provided in a first advantageous embodiment of the invention.
- the spring means can thus be produced independently of the other components of the brush part, for example with regard to the choice of material.
- the spring means can also be designed in a way that is optimal for their intended function, without special boundary conditions of the other components of the brush part having to be taken into account.
- the support tube is provided with the spring means in a second advantageous embodiment of the invention. No separate component is therefore required to implement the spring means. Instead, the spring means are integrated in the support tube. This represents a particularly simple and expedient accommodation of the spring means, in particular with regard to the required material and manufacturing costs.
- the sleeve or the carrier tube has at least one web as spring means, which is provided with a bend curved in the direction of the receptacle.
- the spring means are therefore realized by means of one or more curved webs.
- This web ultimately forms a kind of bending beam, the curvature of which achieves the desired resilient properties.
- the curvature is directed from the sleeve attached to the carrier tube or from the carrier tube in the direction of the holder of the handpiece. If the receptacle is inserted into the carrier tube, the curvature is directed inwards. A certain resistance arises at the curvature of the web, which can be overcome by the user with a slight push.
- the resilient properties of the web act on the brush part in such a way that it is held in the receptacle without play. It is particularly expedient if the sleeve or the carrier tube is made of a plastic. Thus, the web is made of plastic, so that the flexibility of the plastic has an advantageous effect on the resilient properties of the web.
- FIG. 1 shows a schematic longitudinal section of an exemplary embodiment of a brush part according to the invention for an electric toothbrush
- FIG. 2a to 2c each schematically show a longitudinal section, a top view and a cross section of a sleeve of the brush part of FIG. 1.
- FIG. 1 shows an electric toothbrush 1 which has a brush part 2 and a handpiece 3.
- the brush part 2 is plugged onto the handpiece 3, but can, for example, be removed from the handpiece 3 for replacement and replaced by another brush part 2.
- the brush part 2 has an elongated carrier tube 4, at the end facing away from the handpiece 3 a bristle carrier 5 protrudes approximately at right angles.
- the bristle carrier 5 is provided with a plurality of bristles 6.
- the handpiece 3 At its end facing the brush part 2, the handpiece 3 has a receptacle 7 onto which the brush part 2 is attached.
- an electric motor and an accumulator are also accommodated.
- a rotary or pivoting movement generated by the electric motor is transmitted to the bristle carrier 5 via shafts, couplings, gears and the like, which thereby rotates or Pivots about an axis approximately parallel to the bristles 6.
- a sleeve 8 is provided in the end of the brush part 2 facing the handpiece 3.
- the carrier tube 4 is approximately cylindrical and the sleeve 8 is inserted into the carrier tube 4 there.
- the sleeve 8 is secured in the carrier tube 4 against rotation, for example by webs or the like engaging in grooves. Furthermore, the sleeve 8 is secured against being pulled out of the carrier tube 4 by latching means or the like.
- the sleeve 8 is cylindrical and has a substantially circular cross section. On its outer wall 9, the sleeve 8 has two circumferential ring webs 10, 11, at least one of which can serve as a latching means.
- the sleeve 8 has two slots 12, 13, between which a web 14 is formed.
- the web 14, as can be seen in particular in FIG. 2a, is provided with a curvature or bend. This is oriented towards the inside, ie towards smaller diameters and thus towards the receptacle 7 of the handpiece 3.
- At least the web 14 is made of a flexible or elastic material.
- the entire sleeve 8 is made of a plastic.
- the web 14 thus forms a bending beam with resilient properties.
- the web 14 thus has the function of spring means.
- the inner wall 15 of the sleeve 8 is adapted in terms of its cross-sectional shape and its diameter to the outer wall 16 of the receptacle 7, so that the receptacle 7 can be inserted into the sleeve 4 in a form-fitting manner.
- the sleeve 8 and the receptacle 7 have cross-sectional shapes designed in such a way that the sleeve 8 and thus that Brush part 2 can only be plugged onto the receptacle 7 and thus onto the handpiece 3 in a certain rotational position.
- the receptacle 7 of the handpiece 3 must be inserted into the sleeve 8 of the brush part 2.
- the sleeve 8 is in turn inserted into the carrier tube 4 of the brush part 2. If the receptacle 7 reaches the inwardly projecting bend of the web 14, this creates a certain resistance. The resistance is overcome by pushing back the bending of the web 14. Then the receptacle 7 can be fully inserted into the sleeve 8. The brush part 2 is thus completely attached to the handpiece 3.
- two or more webs 14 can also be present.
- the web or webs 14 do not have to be fastened on both sides, but it is also possible to clamp the web or webs 14 only on one side.
- the slits 1 2, 13 forming the webs 14 can also be realized by thinning the sleeve 8, so that the sleeve is completely closed on its circumference.
- the spring means can also be let into the sleeve 8 as general elastic components.
- the spring means are arranged directly on the support tube 4, so that the sleeve 8 is not required at all.
- This can e.g. be realized in that the web or webs 14 are attached directly to the support tube 4. At least the web (s) 14 or the entire carrier tube 4 are then made in particular from a plastic, as a result of which the desired resilient properties are achieved.
- the spring means are not assigned to the brush part 2, but rather to the handpiece 3. It is possible that the spring means are attached directly to the handpiece 2 or to the receptacle 7. It is also possible for the spring means to be plugged onto the receptacle 7, for example in the form of a sleeve or the like. Furthermore, the spring means can be designed such that they not only generate a force in the radial direction outwards, but also also a force in the tangential direction. As a result, tangential movements of the brush part when switched on can be avoided and vibrations and noises can be further reduced.
