- Figs. 3(a) to 3(c) are enlarged views showing the structure of the mixed bristle bundles 70.
- each mixed bristle bundle 70 is anchored to the conductor 14 through an anchoring surface 13, which is the surface of the head 11.
- the anchoring surface 13 is a planar surface extending along a longitudinal direction of the electric toothbrush 1.
- each mixed bristle bundle 70 includes conductive bristles 30 and insulative bristles 40.
- the insulative bristles 40 are formed from a flexible insulative resin, such as polyamide resin or polybutylene terephthalate.
- each conductive bristle 30 includes a core 31.
- the core 31 is formed from a flexible conductive resin such as a carbon-containing polyamide resin or carbon-containing polybutylene terephthalate.

- the conductive bristles 30 have a height from the anchoring surface 13, or reference plane, of the head 11 that differs from that of the insulative bristles 40. More specifically, the height from the anchoring surface 13 to the distal portion of each insulative bristle 40 is greater than the height from the anchoring surface 13 to the distal portion of each conductive bristle 30. The difference in height results in a pit 34 being defined at the tip of each conductive bristle 30.
- a direction in which the conductive bristles 30 and insulative bristles 40 extend is referred to as a height-wise direction.
- the anchoring surface is not flat, hypothetical planes extending in the longitudinal direction of the electric toothbrush 1 are set along, or defined by, the anchoring surface. The surface of the head 11 opposite to the anchoring surface 13 is then set as a base plane. The hypothetical plane located at the highest position from the anchoring surface 13 is selected as the reference plane.
- the anchoring surface 13 is a planar surface extending along the longitudinal direction of the electric toothbrush 1.
- the highest position of anchoring surface 13 is the same throughout the entire anchoring surface 13. Accordingly, the anchoring surface 13 conforms to the reference plane.
- the toothpaste 80 When the toothpaste 80 includes conductive medicinal components, the current draws ions toward oral tissues. When the ions produce a sterilization effect, the ions sterilize the mouth. Cetylpyridinium chloride is one example of an electrolytic medicinal component.
- the electric toothbrush 1 of the second embodiment differs from that of the first embodiment in the structure of the head 11. Otherwise, the electric toothbrush 1 of the second embodiment has the same structure as the first embodiment. The differences will now be discussed. Like or same reference numerals are given to those components that are the same as the corresponding components of the first embodiment. Such components will not be discussed.
- the head 11 includes conductive bristle bundles 50 and insulative bristle bundles 60 to remove dental plaque.
- the conductive bristle bundles 50 and insulative bristle bundles 60 each includes a basal portion, which is anchored to the conductor 14 through the anchoring surface 13, which is a surface of the head 11.
- the conductive bristle bundles 50 and the insulative bristle bundles 60 are alternately arranged in the longitudinal direction of the head 11.
- Insulative bristle bundles 60 are arranged at distal and basal ends of the head 11 in the longitudinal direction so that the conductive bristle bundles 50 are arranged inward from the insulative bristle bundles 60.
- the anchoring surface 13 is a planar surface extending in the longitudinal direction of the electric toothbrush 1.
- each conductive bristle bundle 50 includes conductive bristles 30.
- Each conductive bristle 30 is electrically connected to the conductor 14.
- each insulative bristle bundle 60 includes insulative bristles 40.
- the height of the conductive bristle bundles 50 from the anchoring surface 13, or reference plane, of the head 11 differs from that of the insulative bristle bundles 60. More specifically, the height h from the anchoring surface 13 to a distal portion of each insulative bristle bundle 60 is greater than the height from the anchoring surface 13 to a distal portion of each conductive bristle bundle 50. The difference in height results in a pit 34 being defined at the tip of each conductive bristle bundle 50.
- the toothpaste 80 includes electrolytic medicinal components, current acts to draw the medicinal components toward oral tissues.
- the medicinal components produce a sterilization effect, the mouth is sterilized.
- the toothbrush of the second embodiment has the advantages described below.
- the electric toothbrush 1 of the third embodiment differs from that of the second embodiment in the structure of the head 11. Otherwise, the electric toothbrush 1 of the third embodiment has the same structure as the second embodiment.
- the differences will now be discussed.
- Like or same reference numerals are given to those components that are the same as the corresponding components of the first embodiment. Such components will not be discussed.
- the height h from the anchoring surface 13 to the distal portion of each insulative bristle bundle 60 is greater than that from the anchoring surface 13 to the distal portion of each conductive bristle bundle 50.
- the difference in height forms a pit 34 at the tips of the conductive bristle bundle 50.
- the insulative bristle bundles 60 are arranged at the longitudinal distal and basal ends of the head 11.
- the conductive bristle bundles 50 are arranged between the insulative bristle bundles 60.
- the conductive bristle bundles 50 are continuously anchored between the insulative bristle bundles 60 at the two ends.
- the pit 34 is formed to extend continuously at the tips of the conductive bristle bundles 50. In other words, a group of pits form the single large pit 34.
- the toothpaste 80 includes electrolytic medicinal components, current acts to draw the medicinal components toward oral tissues.
- the medicinal components produce a sterilization effect, the mouth is sterilized.
- the toothbrush of the second embodiment has the advantages described below.
- each mixed bristle bundle 70 has the same height.
- the mixed bristle bundles 70 may have different heights. More specifically, the height of the conductive bristles 30 from the reference plane and the height of the insulative bristles 40 from the reference plane may be different in each mixed bristle bundle 70.
- the height of one mixed bristle bundle 70 from the reference plane and the height of another mixed bristle bundle 70 from the reference plane may be different.
- the mixed bristle bundles arranged at the basal portion, distal portion, and middle portion of the head 11 in the longitudinal direction may be taller than the other mixed bristle bundles.
- the mixed bristle bundles arranged at the basal portion and distal portion of the head 11 may be taller than the mixed bristle bundles arranged therebetween.
- the height of the conductive bristles 30 may be the same as the height of the insulative bristles 40 in each mixed bristle bundle 70.
- the anchoring surface 13 is a planar surface extending in the longitudinal direction of the brush body 10 but may be modified as described below. Referring to Fig. 10 , the anchoring surface 13 may be curved so that the mixed bristle bundles 70 at the middle part, or peak, of the head 11 in the longitudinal direction are the tallest, and the mixed bristle bundles 70 become shorter from the middle portion toward the two ends of the brush body 10. In this case, when the basal portions of the mixed bristle bundles 70, which have the same height, are embedded with the same depth in the head 11, the height from the reference plane to the tip differs between the mixed bristle bundles 70 that are arranged adjacent to each other.
- the height of the conductive bristles 30 from the reference plane is less than the height of the insulative bristles 40 from the reference plane.
- the height of the conductive bristles 30 from the reference plane may be greater than the height of the insulative bristles 40 from the reference plane.
- pits are formed at the tips of the insulative bristles 40. Accordingly, toothpaste applied to the tips of the conductive bristles 30 is consumed before the toothpaste held in the pits of the insulative bristles 40.
- the tips of the conductive bristles 30 directly contact the gum and prevent toothpaste from interfering with the contact between the conductive bristles 30 and gum.
- the height of the conductive bristles 30 from the reference plane is less than the height of the insulative bristles 40 in each mixed bristle bundle 70.
- the conductive bristles 30 from the reference plane may be taller than the insulative bristles 40 in each mixed bristle bundle 70. This forms pits at the tips of the insulative bristles 40.
- the toothpaste 80 applied to the tips of the conductive bristles 30 is consumed before that held in the pits of the insulative bristles 40. This obtains the advantages described above.
- each conductive bristle 30 extends from the coating 33. This allows for the core 31 to enter gaps such as periodontal pockets and sterilize bacteria in a concentrated manner with chlorine. Further, the projection of the core 31 increases the energized area. This increases the electric massaging effect. Moreover, portions other than the distal portion 32 of the core 31 are covered by the coating 33, which is in insulator to supply current to the distal portion of the core 31 in a concentrated manner. This further improves the electric massaging effect.
- the height of the conductive bristle bundles 50 from the reference plane is less than the height of the insulative bristle bundles 60 from the reference plane.
- the height of the conductive bristle bundles 50 from the reference plane may be greater than the height of the insulative bristle bundles 60 from the reference plane. This case also obtains the same advantages as the modifications described above. Further, when the user applies the toothpaste 80 to the head 11 before brushing his or her teeth, the toothpaste 80 is easily received in the pits.
- the tall insulative bristle bundles 60 are arranged at the basal, distal, and middle portions of the head 11 in the longitudinal direction.
- tall conductive bristle bundles 50 may be arranged at the middle portion, and tall insulative bristle bundles 60 may be arranged at the basal and distal portions.
- tall conductive bristle bundles 50 may be arranged at the basal and distal portions, and tall insulative bristle bundles 60 may be arranged at the middle portion.
- the conductive bristles 30 have the same height, and the insulative bristles 40 have the same height. In other words, the bristles have only two levels of height. However, the bristles may have three or more levels of height.
- the conductive bristle bundles 50 anchored at the middle portion may be shorter than the other conductive bristle bundles 50. This limits the medicinal components from escaping from the conductive bristle bundles 50.
- the brush body 10 includes the head 11 and the brush stem 12.
- the brush stem 12 may be excluded from the brush body 10.
- the portion corresponding to the excluded brush stem 12 may be formed integrally with the grip 20.
- the head 11 and the grip 20 may be separate elements.
- the electric toothbrush is applied to an oscillation type electric tooth but may also be applied to a rotary type toothbrush that rotates part of a head to which bristles are anchored.
- the present invention may also be applied to a toothbrush that does not have a function for oscillating the head or a function for rotating the head.
