Abstract

An example adjustable brush may include a brush head and a handle extending from the brush head. The brush head may include a first plurality of teeth extending along a rotation axis and a second plurality of teeth extending along the rotation axis. The second plurality of teeth may be rotatable independently of the first plurality of teeth about the rotation axis.

Claims (37)

1. An adjustable brush comprising:

a brush head, the brush head including:

a first plurality of teeth extending along a rotation axis; and

a second plurality of teeth extending along the rotation axis, the second plurality of teeth being rotatable independently of the first plurality of teeth about the rotation axis;

a handle extending from the brush head;

wherein the brush head further comprises a carriage extending along the rotation axis, the first and second pluralities of teeth extending from the carriage; and

wherein the carriage further comprises a rotatable shaft extending along the rotation axis.

2. The adjustable brush of claim 1 , wherein the first plurality of teeth are rotatable about the rotation axis.

3. The adjustable brush of claim 1 , wherein at least a portion of the carriage is rotatable about the rotation axis.

4. The adjustable brush of claim 1 , wherein the rotatable shaft extends through the first plurality of teeth and the second plurality of teeth.

5. The adjustable brush of claim 4 , wherein a rotation of the rotatable shaft in a first rotation-direction results in a corresponding rotation of the second plurality of teeth.

6. The adjustable brush of claim 5 , wherein a rotation of the rotatable shaft in a second rotation-direction results in a corresponding rotation of the first plurality of teeth and the second plurality of teeth, the second rotation-direction being opposite the first rotation-direction.

7. The adjustable brush of claim 1 , wherein the second plurality of teeth is evenly distributed between the first plurality of teeth.

8. The adjustable brush of claim 1 , further comprising a knob, wherein a rotation of the knob causes a corresponding rotation of at least the second plurality of teeth about the rotation axis.

9. An adjustable brush comprising:

a brush head;

a handle extending from the brush head;

a first plurality of teeth and a second plurality of teeth, at least a portion of the first plurality and second plurality of teeth extending from the brush head;

a knob, a rotation of the knob causes a corresponding rotation of at least the second plurality of teeth about a rotation axis, the second plurality of teeth being rotatable independently of the first plurality of teeth;

wherein the brush head further comprises a carriage extending along the rotation axis, the first and second pluralities of teeth extending from the carriage; and

wherein the carriage further comprises a rotatable shaft coupled to the knob and extending along the rotation axis.

10. The adjustable brush of claim 9 , wherein the first plurality of teeth are rotatable about the rotation axis.

11. The adjustable brush of claim 9 , wherein at least a portion of the carriage is rotatable about the rotation axis.

12. The adjustable brush of claim 9 , wherein the rotatable shaft extends through the first plurality of teeth and the second plurality of teeth.

13. The adjustable brush of claim 12 , wherein a rotation of the rotatable shaft in a first rotation-direction results in a corresponding rotation of the second plurality of teeth.

14. The adjustable brush of claim 13 , wherein a rotation of the rotatable shaft in a second rotation-direction results in a corresponding rotation of the first plurality of teeth and the second plurality of teeth, the second rotation-direction being opposite the first rotation-direction.

15. The adjustable brush of claim 9 , wherein the second plurality of teeth is evenly distributed between the first plurality of teeth.

16. An adjustable brush comprising:

a brush head, the brush head including:

a first plurality of teeth extending along a rotation axis; and

a second plurality of teeth extending along the rotation axis, the second plurality of teeth being rotatable independently of the first plurality of teeth about the rotation axis;

a handle extending from the brush head;

wherein the handle has an elongated length which extends transverse to the rotation axis.

17. The adjustable brush of claim 16 , wherein the first plurality of teeth are rotatable about the rotation axis.

18. The adjustable brush of claim 16 , wherein the brush head further comprises a carriage extending along the rotation axis, the first and second pluralities of teeth extending from the carriage.

19. The adjustable brush of claim 18 , wherein at least a portion of the carriage is rotatable about the rotation axis.

20. The adjustable brush of claim 18 , wherein the carriage further comprises a rotatable shaft extending along the rotation axis.
