A toothbrush includes a brush head having a capsule receiving zone sized to receive a dentrifice capsule. A plurality angled bristles may retain the capsule in such zone. Loading of such toothbrush with a capsule may be performed with a dispenser including a toothbrush manipulation element adapted to move a retention structure associated with the brush head, and dispensation element adapted to deliver the capsule into the receiving zone. Such dispenser may include a desiccant material disposed to receive moisture from a capsule storage container. A dispenser may further include a plurality of toothbrush insertion apertures each adapted to receive a portion of a different toothbrush, so as to enable multiple users each having different toothbrushes to use the same dispenser without requiring contact between multiple brushes and single capsule interface surface of the dispenser.

An oral care implement for dispensing an oral care agent includes a housing, reservoir therein containing an oral care fluid, and an electrical circuit comprising first and second electrodes connected to an onboard power source. Each electrode is in contact with the oral care fluid in the housing. An actuator, operably coupled to the power source, is configured to both selectively energize the circuit and activate dispensing of the oral care fluid. An electrical charge is applied to the oral care fluid by activating the actuator when dispensing the oral care fluid. When the fluid comprises a peroxide based tooth whitening agent, the dispensed fluid pH is increased by the electrical charge which improves the efficacy of the whitener. In one embodiment, the implement is a modular system including a powered base unit and one or more interchangeable cartridges each having a reservoir containing an oral care fluid.

A dispensing paintbrush includes a handle, a brush head connected to the handle, and bristles attached to the brush head to apply a fluid to a surface. A coupler is attached to the handle and is configured to connect to a fluid source. A nozzle is attached to the coupler and is configured to dispense the fluid to the bristles. The nozzle extends within the bristles and terminates at a position from the brush head that is less than one half the length of the bristles.

The toothbrush will be either prefilled with toothpaste as a single unit or the toothbrush will have a changeable toothpaste cartridge that will attach to the toothbrush.

The toothpaste will release with a push or a press of a button/lever/slide or any other way necessary to allow toothpaste to expel through an opening either manually or electronically in the brushing area.

The present invention relates to an apparatus for coloring hair comprising: (a) a housing, for holding the packing system of the coloring mixture, for coloring hair; (b) a lid, attached to said housing; (c) a power spring, located underneath said lid, for pressuring said packing system, within said housing, for squeezing the color mixture from said packing system; (d) a base having at least 2 compartments which receive and store some of said squeezed color mixture from said packing system; and (e) at least 2 tines, each having a conduit fixed within, and each tine is independently movably connected, at its upper part, to said base, for combing said hair and dividing said hair strands into groups of the required width while at the same time distributing and applying said coloring mixture to said hair roots of said separated strands through said conduits, fixed within said tines.

This invention discloses a liquid dispensing hair brush for dispensing hair oil from a plurality of holes disposed on the top plate of the brush portion. The device further includes a handle portion with an elongated cavity that houses one or more oil chambers. Each oil chamber has a front end that is operationally coupled to a valve mechanism that controls the flow of oil into the brush head. The brush portion can be removably attached to the front end wall of the of the handle portion. Additionally, each oil chamber can contain different oil.

A brush (200) for delivering a glutinous substance (168) to a workpiece (170) from an end-effector (102) is disclosed. The brush (200) comprises a body (202), having a rotational axis (238) and comprising a first channel (208) that comprises an inlet (209) and a first outlet (280). The inlet (209) is coaxial with the rotational axis (238) and the first outlet (280) is offset from the rotational axis (238). The brush (200) also comprises tufts (222), extending from the body (202) and each comprising at least one bristle (220) and a tip (227). The brush (200) further comprises a first tube (210), communicatively coupled with the first outlet (280) of the first channel (208) of the body (202).

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.

Brush applicators including hair brush applicators and containers for dispensing dry shampoo are provided. In one embodiment, a brush applicator includes a body having one or more channels to distribute material to a bristle assembly. The bristle assembly can include a plurality of bristle and brush elements. The brush elements may be interspersed with the bristle elements and can each include a shaft and end (e.g., tip). Another embodiment is directed to a brush applicator including a container coupled to a body. The container retains at least one material including powder, liquids and solutions. Another embodiment is directed to a brush applicator configured for application of dry shampoo to hair.

An oral care implement that dispenses an oral care agent during use and a method of assembling such an oral care implement. The method may include contacting a suction tool to a supporting member and then contacting the supporting member to a dissolvable element to form a sub-assembly. Next, the sub-assembly may be inserted into a cavity of a head portion of an oral care implement. Then, the suction force applied by the suction tool onto the sub-assembly may be released to leave the sub-assembly in the cavity of the head portion. Finally, an oral cleaning member may be coupled to the head portion of the oral care implement.
