20110286784 | Toothbrush with integrated toothpaste and dental floss dispensers - A hand-held dental appliance provides a complete, portable dental care system. The appliance stores toothpaste in a toothpaste delivery canister. The appliance has a removable cover to protect a toothpaste dispensing toothbrush unit that is separably connected to the canister, The toothbrush unit has a brush head at the end of a stem ending with a connector for joining with a cooperating canister connector. When the brush unit and canister connectors are joined, a dispenser tip at the connector end of the canister fluidly communicates with a distributed orifice disposed within a bristle array on the brush head by means of a fluid-communicating passage in the stem leading from the joined connectors through the orifice. The orifice is overlapped by a set of resilient flaps enabling toothpaste to flow into the bristles but inhibiting backflow through the orifice. The size and shape of the canister enables it to be gripped for brushing with the brush head. The canister contains an toothpaste delivery actuator driving a movable member that forces the canister's stored toothpaste from the dispenser tip to the brush head through the stem passage. The protective cover includes a housing that receives and encloses the toothbrush unit through one open end. The other end of the cover includes a hinged lid that covers a dental floss dispenser contained inside the cover when the lid is closed. Lengths of floss can be cut from the floss dispenser by a cutter where it protrudes from an aperture adjacent to the lid. | 11-24-2011 |
