TOOTHBRUSH WITH INTEGRAL TOOTHPASTE DISPENSER
The present application is directed towards a toothbrush which provides an integral toothpaste dispenser. The toothbrush is configured to allow the user to selectively apply amounts of toothpaste to the user's teeth. Generally, the toothbrush handle contains an internal cavity which is configured to store toothpaste. The toothpaste is dispensed by squeezing the handle, thereby compressing the internal cavity moving a portion of the toothpaste from the internal cavity to the head of the toothbrush via a conduit. The internal cavity can be refilled with toothpaste by way of an inlet located at the bottom of the handle assembly.
Paint brush device with controlled paint flow system
A paint brush device with a controlled paint flow system is an apparatus that facilitates efficient painting process, by providing the user with a paint brush with a reservoir handle. The inside of the reservoir handle contains the user's choice of paint. In order to transfer the paint to a plurality of bristles, the reservoir handle is internally connected to a soft, liquid repellent internal tube, that traverses internally from the reservoir handle towards the plurality of bristles on a removable brush head. The reservoir handle is compressible, therefore when manually compressed, paint travels from the reservoir handle to the plurality of bristles allowing the user to begin the painting process with little to no preparation. Further, the user can allow, control, and stop the paint flow via a control screw. Therefore, the paint brush device decreases preparation time as well as clean-up time efficiently.
CONTAINER FEATURES FOR SURGICAL INSTRUMENT LUBRICANT
An apparatus includes an external body, a floor attached to the external body, an applicator pad, and a cover. The external body defines an internal cavity and extends between a bottom and top end. The applicator pad extends from the floor into the internal cavity defined by the external body. The applicator pad has an absorbent material that can absorb an electro-lubricant. The applicator pad is dimensioned to be grasped by a pair of jaws of a surgical instrument. The cover is associated with the top end of the external body and partially defines the internal cavity of the external body. The cover allows the pair of jaws to enter the internal cavity via the cover to grasp the applicator pad.
Cleaning appliance
A dental cleaning appliance includes a handle and a fluid delivery system. The fluid delivery system includes a nozzle for delivering a burst of working fluid to the teeth of a user, and a moveable fluid conduit which is moveable about an axis relative to the handle. The nozzle is moveable with the fluid conduit, which is biased for movement about the axis in a direction which urges the nozzle against a user's teeth during use of the appliance.
MULTIUSE TOOTH CLEANING DEVICES AND PROCESSES FOR USING SAME
Tooth cleaning devices for portable, discrete use to improve dental hygiene as well as cosmetic appearance of teeth and processes for using same. The devices enable discrete cleaning of teeth after drinking dark-colored beverages or after eating food in social settings when conventional teeth cleaning devices are unavailable or inconvenient. In particular, these devices are designed for multiple uses, so that the same device may be used for teeth cleaning on multiple occasions.
Unit and multi dose applicators and methods of use
A dental application device having a handle having a first end, a second end, and a containment chamber disposed within the handle. The device has a dental solution disposed within the containment chamber, a receiver tip coupled to the handle at the first end, a material passage within the receiver tip that forms a conduit between the first end and a receiving end, a frangible seal that separates the containment chamber from the material passage, and a piercing cannula in fluid communication with an applicator tip and having a distal piercing end extending toward the frangible seal. The piercing cannula is moveable between a first position and a second position. When in the first position, the piercing end is spaced apart from the frangible seal, and in the second position, the piercing end punctures the frangible seal and fluidly connects the dental solution with the applicator tip.
FABRIC TREATING APPLIANCE COMPRISING A SCRUBBING TOOL
A fabric treating appliance includes a cabinet defining an interior and having a top wall defining an access opening. A cover is provided that is movable relative to the cabinet between an open position and a closed position to selectively close the access opening. A tub is located within the interior and includes and open top aligned with the access opening. A rotatable basket is located within the tub and has a loading opening aligned with the open top and the access opening. A top wall extends between the cabinet and the tub. A scrubbing tool seat recessed in the top wall.
TWIST SEAL ORAL FLUID DELIVERY DEVICE
An oral fluid delivery device includes a housing forming at least one cavity. The cavity includes at least two reservoirs, a first reservoir and a second reservoir. The device also includes an elongated neck with a distal end having at least one distal opening for passage of a fluid, a proximal end, and a channel fluidly connected to the distal opening. The device also includes a cap at the proximal end of the elongated neck. The cap includes at least one aperture aligned with the channel of the elongated neck and is rotatably coupled to the housing such that rotating the cap relative to the housing selectively aligns the aperture with a first reservoir opening to provide fluid communication between the first reservoir and the channel, or aligns the aperture with a second reservoir opening to provide fluid communication between the second reservoir and the channel.
Liquid dispensing hairbrush systems and associated devices
Hairbrushes that dispense liquid are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a hairbrush system includes a brush body, a bristle support layer, and a liquid container configured to store a liquid. The bristle support layer includes a plurality of apertures and supports a plurality of bristles extending outwardly from the brush head. In some embodiments, the hairbrush is configured to transfer the liquid from the liquid container into a chamber defined by the brush body and the bristle support layer. In operation, the hairbrush transfers the liquid from the chamber through the plurality of apertures and into the bristles when the bristle support layer is compressed.
Manual and Electric Pump Toothbrushes with Toothpaste Tube
A pump toothbrush having a toothpaste tube to dispense dentifrice material to top of bristle head is disclosed. The pump toothbrush has a pump head with a resilient button to create an internal vacuum force to draw the dentifrice material from the toothpaste tube. The toothpaste tube is supported by width-limiting fingers to prevent total collapsing of sidewalls resulting in blocking of its flow channel. A self-closing spout is used for preventing backflow. For a manual pump toothbrush the toothpaste tube has an oval-shaped shoulder for mating with the oval-shaped shoulder of a detachable handle for fastening the toothpaste tube by threads. For an electrical pump toothbrush, a detachable endcap connector is used for swinging out the toothpaste tube from its handle for replacement. A sonic vibration model uses rubber molding to minimize vibration on the handle. A dual-rotary model has two rotary bristle elements engaged by gear teeth.
