A hook hooks onto the end of the brush-holder, and a narrow elongated are fitting between the two arms of the interchangeable insert (2) forms the piece for pushing out the brush piece.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Zahnbürste aus Kunststoff mit einem stabartigen Griff und einem am vorderen Teil eindrückbaren Bürstenelement, das nach entsprechender Abnutzung durch ein neues Element ersetzbar ist.The invention relates to a plastic toothbrush a rod-like handle and one on the front part pushable brush element that according to the corresponding Wear can be replaced by a new element.

Bei Zahnbürsten der herkömmlichen Art ist die Zahnbürste ein einziger Teil, der nach Abnutzung der Bürste gesamt als Abfall anfällt.For toothbrushes of the conventional type, the toothbrush is a single part, the total after wear of the brush as waste.

Der Nachteil derartiger Bürsten besteht darin, daß obwohl eigentlich nur die Borsten sich mit der Zeit verbrauchen, nach Abnutzung die gesamte Zahnbürste, d. h. vor allem auch mit dem in der Regel voll funktionsfähigen Griffteil, zum Abfall wird.The disadvantage of such brushes is that although actually only the bristles wear out over time, the entire toothbrush after wear, d. H. especially also with the generally fully functional handle part, becomes waste.

Dementsprechend wird auch davon abgesehen, den Griffteil hinsichtlich ästhetischer und ergonomischer Ansprüche höherwertiger zu gestalten.Accordingly, the handle part is also disregarded in terms of aesthetic and ergonomic demands to design higher quality.

Demgegenüber liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Zahnbürste zu schaffen, die es ermöglicht nach Abnützung der Borsten nur den tatsächlichen verbrauchten Bürstenteil im engeren Sinne zu ersetzen, damit den Rohstoffeinsatz und auch die Materialkosten erheblich senkt, einen wesentlichen Beitrag zur Abfallvermeidung leistet sowie durch eine beliebig vielfache Wiederver­ wendung des Griffteiles bzw. Bürstenträgers auch für verschiedene Bürstentypen einen ökonomischen Anreiz schafft zur Verbesserung der ergonomischen und optischen Formgebung (Gestaltung) des Griffteiles.In contrast, the invention is based on the object to create a toothbrush that allows after Wear of the bristles only the actual used one To replace the brush part in the narrower sense, so that Use of raw materials and also the material costs considerably lowers a significant contribution to waste prevention performs as well as by an arbitrary multiple repetition Use of the handle or brush holder also for  different brush types provide an economic incentive creates to improve ergonomic and visual Shape (design) of the handle part.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die im Kennzeichen des Patentanspruchs 1 aufgeführte Maßnahme erreicht. Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der Ansprüche.This object is achieved by the im Characteristic of claim 1 listed measure reached. Embodiments of the invention are the subject of claims.
