摘要:
The present invention relates to a dental care device for detection and removal of plaque automatically and independently, comprising: a) a motion controlled and pressure sensitive plaque removal head having at least one array of bristles; b) a plaque detection unit adapted to capture images of the teeth and gums, wherein said plaque detection unit includes an imaging device and a light source with specific wavelength for illumination said teeth and gums; and c) a plaque detection engine adapted to process the captured images in order to detect plaque infected areas on said teeth, and accordingly to generate instructions for automatically guiding said motion controlled plaque removal head, thereby executing all the necessary movements for automatically and independently removing the plaque from said teeth while minimizing abrasiveness by controlling the pressure applied and avoiding brushing to clean areas of the teeth and gums.
摘要:
A cosmetic applicator includes bristles or tines with selectively changeable durometer to allow the relative flexibility or stiffness to be adjusted by the user. The bristles or tines are made directly from or incorporate within their structure piezoelectric ceramic fibers. The relative flexibility or stiffness of the piezoelectric fibers can be adjusted by subjecting the fibers to an electric current, or an electric or magnetic field, to cause the fibers to gain or lose flexibility. Stiffness or softness of the applicator can thus be adjusted to be suitable for different application operations such as depositing cosmetic product or combing and clump removal.

An improved cleaning element, specifically designed for rotary brushes for motor vehicle washing systems, is made by using components of a velvety material which is suitably flocked by either a direct process or by coupling with velvety materials or velvets.
摘要:
Eine Zahnbürste weist einen Handgriff (1) und einen borstentragenden vorderen Kopfteil (3) auf, der mittels eines Halsteils (3) mit dem Handgriff (1) verbunden ist. Zwischen dem Kopfteil (3) und dem Handgriff (1) ist eine den Kopfteil (3) in Schwingung versetzende mechanische Vibrationsvorrichtung (10) angeordnet, die ein als Exzenter ausgebildetes Vibrationselement (11) aufweist, das von einem an das Vibrationselement (11) angrenzenden Antriebsmotor (15) angetrieben ist, der mit einer im Handgriff (1) untergebrachten elektrischen Energiequelle verbindbar ist. Das Vibrationselement (11) sitzt auf einer Welle (15a) des Antriebsmotors (15) und ist um eine sich in Längsrichtung der Zahnbürste erstreckende Drehachse drehbar. Zwischen dem Vibrationselement (11) und dem Handgriff (1) sind Halsteilzonen (7), die eine elastisch nachgiebige Materialkomponente aufweisen, vorhanden. Diese Halsteilzonen (7) wirken schwingungsdämpfend und/oder bilden einen elastisch auslenkbaren Bereich.
