Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a storage case for an electric toothbrush.

Conventionally, this type of electric toothbrush storage case is
A toothbrush storage section that stores a toothbrush, an electric toothbrush storage section that stores an electric toothbrush body that is electrically driven with a toothbrush attached, a charger storage section that stores a charger that charges the electric toothbrush body, and a cord connected to the charger. The charger storage part is separated from the toothbrush storage part by a wall in consideration of the negative effect on water after using the toothbrush. By the way, when using a toothbrush, it is preferable to always dry the toothbrush and keep it clean before use, but when using a conventional storage case, it is preferable to leave the toothbrush to dry naturally. The drawback was that drying was slow and unhygienic.

The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and an object of the present invention is to provide a storage case for an electric toothbrush that can quickly dry a toothbrush.

The present invention will be explained in detail below with reference to Examples. As shown in FIG. 1, on the front side of the storage case A, there is formed a toothbrush storage section 2 that stores a toothbrush 1 on one side, and an electric toothbrush housing section 2 that stores an electric toothbrush main body 3 across a front wall 8 on the other side. A storage section 4 is formed. The toothbrush 1 is driven by attaching and detaching its base 9 to the drive shaft 10 of the electric toothbrush main body 3, and the toothbrush storage section 2 has a puller for hanging and storing the head 11 of the toothbrush 1. A hanging portion 12 is formed. In the figure, reference numeral 13 denotes a brush cover that can be opened and closed to cover the toothbrush storage section 2 and prevent dirt and dust from adhering to the toothbrush 1. The electric toothbrush storage section 4 is formed slightly above the storage case A, and an insertion opening 14 into which the electric toothbrush main body 3 is inserted is formed on the lower surface thereof. On the back side of the storage case A, below the electric toothbrush storage section 4, a charger storage section 6 for storing a charger 5 is formed as shown in FIG. Also, on the back side of the toothbrush storage section 2 of the storage case A, there is a cord 15 connected to the charger 5.
A cord storage section 16 is formed to store the cord. The cord storage section 16 and the charger storage section 6 are separated by a rear wall 17. The front wall 8 formed between the charger storage part 6 and the toothbrush storage part 2 is formed hollow, and the toothbrush storage part 2 is provided with a hot air hole 18 which is a ventilation hole. The charger storage section 6 and the toothbrush storage section 2 are located on this front wall 8.
They are communicated through a communication port 7 inside. A plurality of hot air vents 18 are formed in the corners of the toothbrush storage part 2 at positions located on the head 11 of the toothbrush 1 when the toothbrush 1 is stored in the toothbrush storage part 2. Charger 5
As shown in FIGS. 3 and 6, it is formed into a substantially cylindrical shape, and a primary coil 19 is wound inside it. Further, a secondary coil 31 is also wound inside the base of the electric toothbrush main body 3, and the electric toothbrush main body 3 is wound inside the cylinder of the charger 5 as shown in FIG.
When the charger 5 is inserted, a voltage is induced in the secondary coil 31 by the current flowing through the primary coil 19 of the charger 5, and this voltage is rectified and supplied to the storage battery 30 so that the storage battery 30 can be charged. In the figure, 28 is a yoke, 29 is an insulator, and 33 is a motor. 6th
In the figure, 20 is a back cover, and positioning pins 21, 21 are protruded from the lower part of the back cover 20.
Insert the positioning pins 21, 21 into the positioning holes 22, 22 formed at the bottom of the back side of the storage case A, and connect the hook part 23 formed at the top of the back cover 20 to the top end of the back side of the storage case A. The back cover 20 can be attached to the back of the storage case A by fitting into the hook stopper 24 as shown in FIG. A charger holding part 25 is provided at the bottom of the back cover 20 to protrude toward the storage case A side, so that the charger 5 stored in the charger storage part 6 can be held and fixed in a predetermined position. It is set as. In the figure, 26 is a storage case A in which nails etc. are inserted.
It is a hook hole for hanging it on a wall etc., and 2
7 is an opening through which the cord 15 is inserted and taken out.

However, when you are not using toothbrush 1,
The electric toothbrush main body 3 is stored in the electric toothbrush storage part 4 and its base is inserted into the cylinder of the charger 5. At this time, the electric toothbrush main body 3 is charged by the charger 5 and is not charged. The device 5 generates some heat due to the current flowing through the primary coil 19. Therefore, the hot air in the charger storage section 6 heated by the charger 5 is sent to the toothbrush storage section 2 through the hot air hole 18 through the communication port 7 in the front wall 8, so that the toothbrush 1 can be dried. It is. In addition, by providing a back wall 17 between the charger storage section 6 and the cord storage section 16 and further covering the back side of the storage case A with the back cover 20, the charger storage section 6 is surrounded and hot air is removed. There is no escape outside of case A.

As described above, the present invention includes a toothbrush storage part that stores a toothbrush, an electric toothbrush storage part that stores an electric toothbrush main body that is driven with a toothbrush attached thereto and has a storage battery inside, and the electric toothbrush main body that is driven by the electric toothbrush main body that is installed in the electric toothbrush storage part. A charger that charges the storage battery of the electric toothbrush body when stored in the electric toothbrush body is housed therein, and the toothbrush housing section is provided with a charger housing section provided through a partition wall, and the toothbrush housing section is covered with a battery charger that charges the storage battery of the electric toothbrush body. The brush cover can be opened and closed to prevent dirt and dust from adhering to it, and the bulkhead is equipped with a ventilation hole that guides the hot air emitted from the charger into the toothbrush storage compartment when charging the electric toothbrush's storage battery. , simply store the toothbrush in the toothbrush compartment,
Compared to the conventional method of leaving the toothbrush to dry naturally, a vent provided in the partition wall allows the hot air emitted from the charger to flow into the toothbrush storage part from the charger storage part provided through a partition wall. By introducing the hot air from the charger through the vents and filling the toothbrush compartment, the toothbrush dries quickly.Furthermore, the brush cover that covers the toothbrush compartment prevents the hot air from going outside. The toothbrush has the effect of being difficult to escape and having good drying efficiency, and the brush cover can prevent dust and dust from adhering to the toothbrush, so that the toothbrush can always be used in a sanitary condition. In this way, the toothbrush that gets wet with water can be quickly dried after use, and it can also prevent dust and dust from adhering to the toothbrush, making it possible to brush the teeth comfortably. Furthermore, since the toothbrush is dried using the hot air of the charger, the storage case can have a simple structure without using complicated drying means.
