To protect dental health, it is common in the dental community that brushing is impossible and debris between teeth is indispensable. Therefore, the use of dental floss is becoming more and more popular mainly in developed countries, but the conventional dental floss is mainly used for two-finger grip. This method requires the use of reciprocating and vertical movements of the fingers in a limited space in the oral cavity. Uncomfortable. In addition, the dental floss was wound around both fingers to maintain a certain length of the intended operation was also a waste of dental floss. For this reason, various shapes of dental floss fixing devices have been introduced in consideration of the oral structure, and dental floss feeding and fixing devices having a dental floss supply function have been developed.

The conventional dental floss fixing device developed so far is inconvenient for the user because its structure is not suitable for the oral cavity structure or the dental floss supply device is not attached. It is composed of heavy weight and not easy to produce. In addition, since it is not structured to cut the used floss immediately, there is a limit of unsanitary lighting in the next use, many people are reluctant to use even while recognizing the importance of using the floss. Therefore, the present invention seeks to provide a dental floss feeding and fixing device that is designed to be suitable for the oral cavity structure, and is attached to a feeding device and a cutting device so that the handle is simple and easy to handle so that the correct dental floss can be used without much effort.

Referring to the structure of the present invention with reference to the drawings Figure 1 is a perspective view of the dental floss supply and fixing device according to the present invention and Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view showing the configuration of the present invention.

As shown, the floss supply and fixing device according to the present invention is composed of a handle portion 1 and the floss hook portion 15, the left side of the handle portion 1 of the cylindrical dental floss (2) This is provided and the support shaft (3) for inserting the floss skein (8) therein is rolled out. At the base of the support shaft 3, a support rib 4 is provided to induce a reaction force corresponding to the compression force by the compression rib 6 in the dental floss lid 5 to be described later. On the outer side of the open cylinder of the dental floss 2, a thread is installed to be engaged with the dental floss lid 5. The floss cap 5 is prepared for the purpose of opening and closing function of the floss compartment (2) and the operation control of the floss skein (8), the inner periphery of the female thread to be fastened to the floss compartment (2). In addition, the compression rib 6 having the same size as the support rib 4 radius is installed at its inner center to suppress the operation of the dental floss 8 embedded in the floss box 2 when fully tightened. At this time, in order to achieve reliable operation suppression, the space between the support ribs 4 and the compression ribs 6 in the fully engaged state should be designed to be narrower than the width of the floss stem 8 as the restraint object. And the dental floss cap (5) is formed so that it can be simply turned like a switch operation by forming a protrusion knob (7) for convenient and perfect pressure. At the top of the handle portion 1, a handle cover 11 capable of disassembling and disassembling is installed so that the dental floss 9 embedded in the dental floss 2 is easily taken out and the extracted dental floss 9 is not contaminated.

On the lower right side of the handle part 1, a screw rod 12 having a male screw is protruded and a hollow fixing knob 13 having a female screw is installed to be fastened thereto. This is to ensure that the end portion of the dental floss wound on the auxiliary hook rod 15 to be described later wound on the screw rod 12 to be completely tightened with the fixing knob 13 so as not to be released. A cutter 14 is installed at the lower middle of the handle part 1 so that the dental floss used to remove the interdental dirt is immediately cut to be used for hygienic dental floss.

The dental floss hanger 15 is a portion to remove the dirt by inserting the dental floss drawn out from the handle 1 into the interdental and spoke to the right of the handle 1. The floss hanger (15) at the bottom right of the first hanger (16), the first hanger is installed, the second hanger (17) is installed at the bottom of the middle, and the base hanger (17) at the base of the auxiliary hanger rod in both directions 18 is installed. In addition, the dental floss hanger 15 forms an open guide groove 19 therein as shown in FIG. 4 so that the dental floss drawn from the handle 1 is guided without being separated to the tip of the rear hook 17. In particular, between the hooking stand 17 and the above-described fixing knob 13 is provided a space for the insertion of the cheeks, which is a obstacle factor when removing the interdental dirt of the molar portion. That is, after inserting the sundae 16 to the hook 17 into the oral cavity and pulling it outward (toward the cheeks), the inside of the cheek meat is pushed outward by the hook 17 and between the hook 17 and the molar teeth. This will allow you to insert dental floss.

The auxiliary hanger rod 18 is a dental floss fixed to the floss compartment (2) through the guide groove 19 of the dental floss hanger (15) to come to the sundae 16 and the hook 17 and then by hand It is a pull-up device. This auxiliary hanger rod 18 is maintained to maintain the required tensile force and installed on both sides so that both left-handed and right-handed can be easily wound floss.
