A hair brush apparatus comprises a handle, an outer frame extending from the handle, and an inner frame, each with proximal and distal ends. Each of the outer frame and the inner frame includes a plurality of parallel prongs with ends and channels that are disposed in alternating arrangement, whereby the outer and inner frame prongs are interleaved together. A suspension assembly comprises a base suspension member attaching the outer frame proximal end to the inner frame proximal end. At least one prong suspension member attaches at least one inner frame prong end to at least one outer frame channel. The suspension assembly enables relative movement of the inner frame with respect to the outer frame in at least two axes, selected from a longitudinal, lateral and transverse axis. A control member can be used to manipulate the movable inner frame in any direction as desired by the user.

A personal care brush includes a brush head portion and handle portion with an exposed groove for receiving a first container that stores one to six doses of a facial or oral care product. The groove leads to a channel that runs through the brush head to an opening at a bristle frame side of the brush head. A pushing member is manually advanced along the groove to push product from the first container into the channel and out through the opening. A member located at a backside of the brush head is movable relative to an axis of the toothbrush. The member has a first position for personal care applications and a second position for facilitating exposure of the channel for channel cleaning.

There is herein provided a hair brush comprising a body portion formed from a material having a first flexibility; and a bristle mount formed from a material having a second, lesser, flexibility, coupled to the body portion, the bristle mount comprising a plurality of mount sections, each mount section having at least one bristle mounted thereon, wherein the mount sections are movable relative to one another in three dimensions such that the relative flexibility of the overall bristle mount is greater than the second flexibility, thereby enabling the bristle mount to substantially replicate bending or flexing of the body portion. Such a brush is highly flexible yet effective and may be easily adapted or shaped by a user to conform to the contours of, for example, a head or body.

A make-up brush system includes a mandrel having a first end and a second end. The first end includes a gripping surface for engagement with a hand of a make-up artist and the second end being shaped and dimensioned for selective engagement with a plurality of make-up brushes. A plurality of make-up brushes is provided. Each of the plurality of make-up brushes includes a first end and a second end, the first end including a functional component of the make-up brush and the second end including a coupling member shaped and dimensioned for selective engagement with the second end of the mandrel. The system also includes a case both supporting and sanitizing the various components of the present invention. The case includes a tray supporting the plurality of make-up brushes in accessible positions within the case.

The invention takes advantage of an elasticity of brush bristles and an axial movement of the brush assembly with respect to a brush housing to configure the brush in a retracted or an expanded position. The brush with retractable bristles allows for both an easy removal of hair and/or debris on the bristles simply by the axial movement of the brush assembly and a replacement of the brush bristles when the brush bristles are damaged or dirty. The brush with retractable bristles is configured to be used with an electric tool which enables a rotation of the brush.

An oral cleaning device comprises a body which carries a set of projections. An actuator device is associated with one or more of the projections in the form of an electroactive polymer structure for adjusting a position of the associated one or more projections. This enables dynamic control of the cleaning function.

The double action cleaning tool of the present invention includes a dynamic double action dual brush head and a handle. The dynamic double action dual brush head includes two brush heads rotatably attached to a brush head base, allowing the brush heads to independently rotate about the axis in which it is rotatably attached to the brush head base. A mechanical device capable of storing and releasing energy is connected between the two brush heads, which is rigidly attached to the brush head base. The double action cleaning tool stores energy in the form of potential energy in the mechanical energy storage device of the dynamic double action dual brush head during the sweeping stroke of the double action push broom. At the end of the sweeping stroke, the stored potential energy is converted into kinetic energy and rotates the dual brush, thereby providing an additional sweeping motion.

A washing brush to wash a container having a long length. The washing brush includes a handle part, a shaft part connected to the handle part, a sliding part configured to slide along the shaft part, a strip part coupled to the lower end part of the shaft part and lower part of the sliding part, a brush part attached to the outside of the strip part; and a position adjusting part configured to adjust a relative position of the shaft part. The sliding part is pressed to spread the strip part and the spread can be varied by the position adjusting part by adjusting the relative position of the sliding part with respect to the shaft part. A washing brush is provided that can simply and quickly wash a cylindrical container by allowing a washing part to be spread according to the shape of a container.

An attachment including a casing having an air inlet for receiving an airflow from a hair styling apparatus, a hair engaging member, supported by the casing, and adapted to move relative to the casing between a first position and a second position under the action of an over-centre mechanism. First and second airflow outlets are formed between the casing and the hair engaging member when the hair engaging member is in the first and second position, respectively.
