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.

A head for an oral-care implement, having an elongated mounting surface with an outer circumference, includes two outer rows of tufts extending from the mounting surface along a longitudinal axis and in proximity to the outer circumference and an arc-shaped toe arranged at a distal end and composed of filaments or a plurality of tufts of filaments. The tufts of the outer rows have a longitudinal extension and an elongated cross-sectional area extending substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal extension, the elongated cross-sectional area having a longer axis and a shorter axis, wherein the longer axis defines an angle α of from about 20° to about 65° with respect to the longitudinal axis, so that the tufts of the outer rows and the arc-shaped toe define an outer arc-shaped envelope.

A multi-functional hair brush comprising an elongate body including a handle segment and a bristle segment. The bristle segment of the multi-functional hair brush includes at least two types or styles of bristles, each performing a separate and different function in styling hair. In one embodiment, the multi-functional hair brush includes a round brush bristled in two different ways to perform two different functions. The two different brislings may include first bristles on a first half of the round brush to start and straighten a difficult hair, and second bristles on a second and opposite half of the round brush to finish styling the hair. In another embodiment, the handle segment of the hair brush includes an off-set handle. The off-set handle provides improved feel and comfort in handling the hair brush while styling hair.

Roller brushes for a cleaning and/or care devices, for example, for cleaning and/or care of floor coverings in the form of tiles, natural, artificial, blocks of concrete or wood, with a rotationally symmetrical cylinder which comprises a cylinder surface. At least one first plurality of a first bundle of bristles with a first brush and a second plurality of a second bundle of bristles with a second brush may be arranged on the cylinder surface. The first bundle of bristles may be different from the second bundle of bristles.

A reconfigurable modular brush has a brush head including brush-head upper and lower surfaces extending longitudinally along a brush-head axis between brush-head first and second ends. Laterally opposed brush-head first and second sides extend between the brush-head upper and lower surfaces and longitudinally between the brush-head first and second ends. A bristle array is defined by a plurality of bristles protruding from the brush-head lower surface. A brush handle includes a grip portion and a brush-head mount, the brush handle having a lengthwise extent disposed generally along a handle axis between handle proximate and distal ends. The brush head and brush-head mount are cooperatively configured such that the handle can selectively capture and retain the brush head. Moreover, the longitudinal orientation in which the brush head is captured and retained by the brush handle is selectively reversible.

Provided is a brush head for an oral cleaning device for cleaning teeth with a combination of brushing and emitting of a cleaning agent. The brush head comprises a bristle set for brushing the teeth and a nozzle for emitting the cleaning agent. When actuating the bristle set from a first configuration, which is optimized for brushing, to a second configuration, which is optimized for emitting of a cleaning agent, at least a part of the bristle 5 set is moved away from the nozzle and/or away from a path of the cleaning agent when being emitted from an orifice of the nozzle.

A toilet brush assembly including a brush, including: a handle assembly including a handle assembly proximal end and a handle assembly distal end; and a brush head that includes a plurality of tufts of bristles disposed on an outer surface of the brush head, a cavity defined by an inner surface of the brush head, and a fastener portion. The toilet brush assembly also includes a base, including a cup for receiving the brush head. The brush head selectively couples to the handle assembly distal end at the fastener portion of the brush head at a handle assembly-brush head connection; and at least one of the base and the brush head define at least one interference feature formed from a surface of the base and that contacts the tufts of bristles when the brush head is in a rest position within the cup.

A cell of a brush making device for making at least a part of a toothbrush, having a pin unit having at least one pin, a pin holding sub-unit and a pin guiding sub-unit, the pin having a first section having a first end and a second section having a second end, the first section having a holding structure, and at least one spring section arranged between the first section and the second section, the pin holding sub-unit having a holding structure that is engaged with the holding structure of the pin for fixedly holding the pin, the pin holding sub-unit and the pin guiding sub-unit being arranged for being movable along a first direction towards and away from each other, and the pin guiding sub-unit having a channel for guiding at least a portion of the second section of the pin, the channel being inclined against the first direction.

A cleaning brush for cleaning laps of siding featuring a brush base with brush elements attached to the back and top surfaces of the brush base formed to compliment a lap of siding. The cleaning brush further comprises a four direction swivel mean attached to the brush base for engaging a handle wherein the cleaning brush can be extended to various heights to engage laps of siding. When in use, the cleaning brush comes in contact with a lap of siding and is slid laterally across a lap of siding removing debris from the siding.

A head for an oral-care implement, having an elongated mounting surface with an outer circumference, includes two outer rows of tufts extending from the mounting surface along the longitudinal axis in proximity to the outer circumference, and two inner rows of tufts extending from the mounting surface and arranged between and parallel to the outer rows. The tufts of the outer rows have a longitudinal extension and an elongated cross-sectional area perpendicular thereto. The elongated cross-sectional area has a longer axis and a shorter axis, wherein the longer axis defines an angle α of about 20-65 degrees relative to the longitudinal axis. The tufts of the outer rows are inclined relative to the mounting surface by an inclination angle (β) of about 65-80 degrees. The tufts of the inner rows are inclined relative to the mounting surface by an inclination angle (γ) of about 60-85 degrees.
