First, referring to FIGS. 1 to 3, the toothpaste discharging toothbrush 100 of the present invention includes a toothbrush stand 200, a pumping member 300, a piston 400, and a nipple 500.

The toothbrush pole 200 is composed of a handle portion 210, an extension portion 220 and the planting portion 230, the storage unit 212 is formed in the interior of the handle portion 210 is stored toothpaste, not shown However, the outer periphery of the line / rear end is formed with a tab that can be screwed respectively, it is preferable to form a transparent material so that the remaining amount of the toothpaste stored therein can be easily visually confirmed. In addition, although the extension part 220 is not shown, a tab is formed at a rear end thereof and is detachably coupled to a tab formed at the front end of the handle part 210. The storage compartment 212 of the handle part 210 is formed therein. In communication with the) is formed a conveying path 222 for transferring the toothpaste, it is preferable that the packing portion is provided with a packing (p) to improve the sealing force. In addition, the hair transplanting unit 230 is formed at the front end of the extension 220, the brush bristle 234 shown in the broken line on the upper surface is planted and communicated with the transfer path 222 and the discharge port 232 for discharging the toothpaste ) Is provided. At this time, the discharge port 232 is preferably formed so as to be located about the center of the hair transplant unit 230 so that the toothpaste evenly discharged when brushing teeth.

Next, the pumping member 300 is coupled to the rear end of the handle portion 210 to introduce air into the storage chamber by the pumping action, the housing screwed to the tab formed on the rear end of the handle portion 210 310 and a pumping ball 320 having a front end portion provided with a valve 330 inside the housing 310 and having a rear end portion exposed to the outside and having an air inlet hole 322 formed therein. The pumping member 300 is supplied to the inside of the storage chamber 212 through the valve 330 provided at the front end by introducing the outside air into the air inlet hole 322 by the pumping operation of the pumping ball 320, Since the supplied air is not discharged in reverse, the pumping member 300 is described in the related art, and thus, further detailed description thereof will be omitted.

Next, the piston 400 is located in the storage compartment 212 of the handle portion 210 is slid by the air pumped from the pumping member 300 is transferred to the toothpaste stored in the storage compartment 212 transfer path 222 It is to be supplied to the side, the diameter of the piston 400 is formed to be slightly larger than the inner diameter of the storage compartment 212 to be coupled to the inner wall of the storage compartment 212 by a force-fitting method so as to be as close as possible, the edge close adhesion It is more preferable to provide a soft silicone material in order to improve the efficiency.

On the other hand, when the piston 400 is located inside the storage compartment 212 of the handle portion 210, the toothpaste is stored to be positioned at the front end of the piston 400, the pumping action of the pumping member 300 located in the rear end It is natural to discharge the toothpaste while sliding by, which will be described later.

Finally, the nipple (500) is coupled to the discharge port 232 of the flocking portion 230 by receiving the toothpaste discharged by the expansion action, when brushing the teeth when touching the teeth or gums externally To be discharged, and when not in contact with the toothpaste is automatically discharged to prevent the discharge, made of a flexible and soft silicone material to minimize the sense of heterogeneity when it comes in contact with the teeth or gums, "ga" and It is configured as shown in "I".

That is, the nipple 500 includes a body 510 and an upper plate member 520 and has an approximately H shape in cross section. The body 510 is formed in a cylindrical shape so that the discharge hole 512 is opened up and down is formed to store the toothpaste discharged is coupled to the lower end to the discharge port 232.

In addition, the upper plate member 520 is formed in the transverse direction at the upper end of the discharge hole 512 of the body 510 to block the discharge hole 512 but the incision cut in the center portion so that the toothpaste can be discharged ( 522 is formed. At this time, the upper plate member 520 is formed so that the center portion is convex toward the lower end of the body 510 so that the close contact between the two ends formed by the incision 522, even if the toothpaste incision 522 is It is not easily opened without permission to be stored in the body 510, and when it touches the gums or teeth, both ends of the incision 522 is opened while being displaced from each other, the toothpaste supplied into the discharge hole 512 of the body 510 When it is out of reach, it is restored immediately and is automatically controlled to prevent toothpaste discharge. On the other hand, the thickness (t ') of the upper plate member 520 is formed to be thicker than the wall thickness (t') of the body 510 is preferably to be more smoothly the intermittent action of the toothpaste introduced by the pressure. Do.

As a result, as shown in FIG. 2, the piston 400 is inserted into the storage chamber 212 formed in the handle portion 210 of the toothbrush 200 to be in close contact with the inner wall thereof, and the pumping member 300 is disposed at the rear end thereof. The nipple 500 is coupled to the discharge port 232 formed in the tuft part 230, and the storage chamber 212 formed in the handle part 210, the transfer path 222 formed in the extension part 220, and the tuft part ( The discharge port 232 formed in the 230 is coupled in a manner to seal.

On the other hand, if the brief description of the method for filling the toothpaste in the toothpaste discharge toothbrush 100 of the present invention coupled as described above, first separating the handle portion 210 and the extension portion 220 and the handle portion 210 Toothpaste is to be charged through the storage compartment 212 of the. Then, when the piston 400 located in the storage compartment 212 approaches the pumping member 300 located at the rear end by being pushed by the toothpaste to be filled, the filling is completed and the separated extension 220 is recombined to complete. do. At this time, since the handle portion 210 is formed of a transparent material, the filling amount of the toothpaste and the sliding of the piston 400 can be easily checked with the naked eye, and thus it will be convenient to use.

Now, the operation relationship of the toothpaste discharge toothbrush of the present invention discussed above will be described.

Figure 5 is a longitudinal cross-sectional view showing the operation of the toothpaste discharge toothbrush according to an embodiment of the present invention, "a" to "ra" of Figure 6 is a part showing the operating relationship of the nipple by the enlarged portion A of FIG. It is an enlarged view.

First, referring to FIG. 5, the toothpaste 600 is filled in the manner described above toward the front end portion of the piston 400 inserted into the storage compartment 212 formed in the handle portion 210. At this time, in order to brush teeth, the user repeatedly pumps the pumping ball 320 of the pumping member 300 coupled to the rear end of the handle part 210 to supply external air into the storage chamber 212. Then, the piston 400 located in the storage compartment 212 is slid toward the tip end portion by the air pressure, and the toothpaste 600 stored in the storage compartment 212 passes through the feed path 222 of the extension part 220. Is discharged to the discharge port 232.

Subsequently, the toothpaste 600 discharged to the discharge port 232 flows into the body 510 discharge hole 512 of the nipple 500 to which the nipple 500 is coupled, and is stored therein. This will be described with reference to FIG. 6.

The toothpaste 600 discharged from the discharge port 232 flows into the nipple 500, that is, the discharge hole 512, as shown in FIG. 6. However, the introduced toothpaste 600 is blocked by the upper plate member 520 formed at the upper end of the discharge hole 512 of the nipple 500 and is not discharged to the outside and stored in the discharge hole 512. At this time, although the incision 522 is formed in the upper plate member 520, the incision 522 is formed to be convex toward the lower end of the body 510 as the portion thereof goes toward the center thereof. It is natural that the shape is intimately downward and is not easily opened.

In addition, when a larger amount of toothpaste is discharged from the discharge port 232 by the pumping operation of the pumping member 300 repeatedly and flows into the discharge hole 512 of the body 510, the upper plate member curved downward by the pressure. 520 is gradually pushed upward, but even in the process of being pushed up, the incision 522 is more closely contacted so that the toothpaste 600 is not discharged, so the body 510 is eventually expanded as "I" and therein. It will be stored a large amount of toothpaste (600). In addition, when the upper plate member 520 is formed thicker than the wall thickness of the body 510, the body before the incision 522 is opened because the upper plate member 520 is more firm even if toothpaste is supplied by excessive pressure. As the 510 is further expanded to accommodate the toothpaste supplied by the pressure, it is natural that the crackdown on the discharge operation of the toothpaste is made more smoothly.

When the toothpaste 600 is stored in the nipple 500 by the pumping operation, the user stops the pumping operation and starts brushing teeth. At this time, even if the pumping operation is stopped, the toothpaste 600 is stored in the nipple 500 as it is to be aware that it is not necessary to discharge the supplied air to the outside again to prevent the toothpaste continues to discharge as in the prior art. When the user starts brushing teeth, the top end of the nipple 500 directly touches the gum or teeth, and soon moves up and down or up and down like "D" and "D" according to the brushing operation. Then, the ends of the cutout 522 formed in the upper plate member 520 will be shifted from each other, and a small amount of toothpaste 600 will be discharged to the outside so that the user can brush their teeth.

Then, when the teeth are finished, the nipple 500 is no longer in contact with the gums or teeth, the incision 522 of the upper plate member 520 has the internal pressure and the restoring force in the structural structure so as to be quickly restored. Closely together to prevent the toothpaste 600 is discharged. At this time, when brushing again, the external air is already introduced into the storage compartment 212 of the handle portion 210, so that the compressed state is maintained by the pumping operation of about one or two times. Since it is supplied back into the body 510 of the nipple 500, it allows for a convenient and effective brushing.

Meanwhile, in the conventional case, the toothpaste may be discharged more than necessary due to the pressure after supplying the toothpaste, and the air is discharged to the outside to stop the toothpaste discharge. Because toothpaste is supplied, it should be recognized that there is a big difference in how to use it.

In addition, the top plate member 520 formed in the nipple 500 can minimize the curing of the toothpaste after use, thereby minimizing the curing of the toothpaste, so that it can be used sanitarily compared to the prior art.

The foregoing has outlined rather broadly the features and technical advantages of the present invention in order to better understand the claims of the invention which will be described later. Additional features and advantages that constitute the claims of the present invention will be described in detail below. It should be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the disclosed concepts and specific embodiments of the invention can be used immediately as a basis for designing or modifying other structures to accomplish the invention and similar purposes.

In addition, such modifications or altered equivalent structures by those skilled in the art as a basis for modifying or designing the structures and embodiments of the invention disclosed in the present invention to other structures for carrying out the same purposes of the present invention are patents Various changes, substitutions and changes may be made without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention as set forth in the claims.
