A back-invigorator device of the present disclosure has a back-invigorator implement coupled to a first end of a first shaft, the first shaft having a first hinge mechanism on a second end. The back-invigorator device further has a handle coupled to a first end of a second shaft, the first and second shafts detachably coupled together via the first hinge mechanism and a second hinge mechanism on a second end of the second shaft such that the back-invigorator implement can be replaced by another back invigorator implement.

The present invention is concerned with an electric utility brush having a flexible drive shaft, and in particular an electric toothbrush having a substantially spherical head mounted on the flexible drive shaft and which can be driven rotationally in at least two different orientations in order to provide comprehensive brushing capabilities.

In some embodiments an oral care implement herein may be embodied as a toothbrush having a head disposed at a distal end of a handle. The head may include a fixed bristle support and at least two movable bristle supports, movable relative to the fixed bristle support and relative to each other. An actuator is disposed to actuate the movable bristle supports between a brushing position in which bristles on the fixed bristle support and the movable bristle supports are substantially parallel and an interdental cleaning position in which the movable bristle supports are moved relative to each other such that the bristles on the movable bristle supports are angled toward each other. In the interdental cleaning position, the bristles may form a point or similar bristle tip, which may be useful for interdental cleaning.

What is disclosed is tool holder and spray nozzle on an extension pole. In a preferred embodiment the device uses an extension pole with a brush retention mechanism on the end of the pole. The extension pole has a spray brush on the end of the pole configured to spray stain or paint in front of the brush as the brush travels along a deck or other substrate.

An oral care implement having a handle, a head, and at least one movable cleaning element coupled to the head. The movable cleaning element may be used as an interdental cleaner. The movable cleaning element may be positioned within a loop formed by fixed cleaning elements on the head. The movable cleaning element may be coupled to an actuator that moves the movable cleaning element between a first position wherein a distal tip of the movable cleaning element is spaced a first distance from a front surface of the head and a second position wherein the distal tip of the movable cleaning element is spaced a second distance from the front surface of the head, the second distance being greater than the first distance. The movable cleaning element may maintain the first and second positions until subsequent actuation of the actuator.

A dental cleaning device includes a bite plate to clamp an upper and a lower arch in a predetermined bite position; a track fixed to the bite plate to provide a dental arch movement; and a carrier holding dental instruments thereon and moving along the track.

An oral care implement in one embodiment includes an elongated body comprising a head portion supporting plurality of tooth cleaning elements and a handle portion. The tooth cleaning elements are disposed on longitudinally extending bristle carrier sections hingedly coupled together about a common pivot axis. The axis may be formed by a flexible web. A slidable actuator mounted in the handle portion is mechanically coupled to the bristle carrier assembly by an elongated operating rod. Moving the actuator in opposing rearward and forward directions opens or folds the bristles on the carriers outwards or inwards respectively about the common pivot axis. In the folded position, the bristles are configured for interdental cleaning of the teeth. In the open or extended position, the bristles are configured for general purpose cleaning of the teeth.

A paint brush system, including a number of bristles held together inside the paint catch funnel and at also a bristles holder of the base providing a paint catch funnel circumferentially and about a lower enclosed area about each of the bristles, therein forming of the catch funnels of the base of the paint brush; whereas the paint catch funnel is connected to the upper part of the head, and between a bottom head and the top connector of the flex accordion-like neck, the neck is inserted and locked into the bottom head; at the bottom of the flex accordion-like neck, linearly repeatedly and extensively an element and also providing a transversely aspect of the flex accordion-like element and providing from an uppermost to a bottommost, and of the repeatedly element accordion ends; and further a threaded nonslip handle is provided at the end of the paint brush system.
