Abstract

An interdental brush with a replaceable brush body with a core and a manufacturing method thereof are provided, and relate to the technical field of tooth cleaning tools. The interdental brush includes a handle, a screw cap, a fixing block and a brush body. One end of the handle is provided with an external thread, an interior of the screw cap is provided with an internal thread mating with the external thread of the one end of the handle. One end of the fixing block abuts against the handle, and an other end extends out of the screw cap. The brush body includes a core and bristles, the core is twisted by an amorphous alloy wire, one end of the core is clamped in the fixing block, and a periphery of an other end is connected to the bristles.

Claims (10)

1. An interdental brush with a replaceable brush body with a core, comprising: a handle, a screw cap, a fixing block and a brush body, wherein one end of the handle is provided with an external thread, an interior of the screw cap is provided with an internal thread, and the external thread of the one end of the handle mates with the internal thread of the interior the screw cap; one end of the fixing block abuts against the handle, and an other end extends out of the screw cap; and the brush body comprises a core and bristles, wherein the core is twisted by an amorphous alloy wire, one end of the core is clamped in the fixing block, and a periphery of an other end is connected to the bristles;

wherein one end of the interior of the screw cap has an inclination, and another end has the internal thread mating with the external thread of the one end of the handle;

wherein the core comprises a free end and a fixing end connected with each other; the fixing end is clamped in the fixing block; and the bristles are wound around the free end of the core and distributed radially; and

wherein the fixing block comprises two clamping blocks in left-right symmetrical arrangement, and is provided with a through hole in a center for fixing the fixing end of the core, and one end of an exterior has an inclined surface mating with the inclination of the one end of the interior of the screw cap.

2. The interdental brush with the replaceable brush body with the core according to claim 1 , wherein the one end of the handle has the external thread, and an outer surface of an other end has a concave-convex pattern.

3. A manufacturing method of the interdental brush with the replaceable brush body with the core according to claim 1 , comprising following steps:

S1: spirally winding the amorphous alloy wire around a central axis to form the core, and radially implanting the bristles into the free end of the core by a hair-planting machine to form the brush body;

S2: injecting injection molding raw materials into a mold, and manufacturing the handle by an injection molding machine, wherein the one end of the handle has the external thread, and an outer surface of an other end has a concave-convex pattern;

S3: injecting the injection molding raw materials into the mold, and manufacturing the screw cap by the injection molding machine; and

S4: injecting the injection molding raw materials into the mold, and manufacturing the fixing block by the injection molding machine.
