Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INNOVATION

Everyday we use toothbrush & toothpaste for a whole life through. This innovation is for the convenience of the people on the go. Thus, this 2-in-1, toothbrush plus toothpaste is established.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INNOVATION

For years I have noticed that whenever we are going out for vacation or for business, we are always leaving something behind that toothbrush & toothpaste tube. Now I think it's time to have this innovation: 2-in-1 toothbrush plus toothpaste. No need to look for your toothpaste tube because it's already attached to your toothbrush. And it's protected by a pen-like shape cover. Compact and easy to carry or store.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE SEVERAL VIEWS OF THE DRAWING

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INNOVATION

This 2-in-1 toothbrush looks like an ordinary pen with transparent white plastic cap & cover, so you won't make a mistake that it's a pen, but a toothbrush & toothpaste tube inside.
There is a pocket clip on the cap to secure tightly to any tiny hole pocket inside your handbag or baggage. And a tiny hole on the tip of the cap for ventilation.
The cover is being used as a toothbrush handle, so it's screwed to the toothbrush.
When you pull out the cap from the toothbrush handle, you can see the toothbrush head.
This toothbrush head, prefers tiny brush head with even soft bristles. It's better when it comes out with vertical 3 to 4 bristles & horizontal 6 to 8 bristles. Small brush head can easily move around way back to the teeth of the mouth. This brush head should have a length of 3″ long (including the bristles head), as part of the toothbrush handle. Together with the handle cover will be a total of 6″ long. Since it's a tiny brush head, the handle, from there is tiny too, and gradually a little bigger at the end, with a circumstance of 2″. There is a metal ring around the end. This metal ring is useful for the cap to pull out & push in.
Remember you have pulled out the cap, now unscrew (clockwise) the handle cover, from the end of the toothbrush, there you can see the toothbrush is attached to the toothpaste tube. So unscrew (clockwise) toothpaste tube from the tooth brush & squeeze toothpaste out just over the toothbrush head as usual.
Screw (counter clockwise) back the handle cover, so it can be used as a brush handle. After finished brushing the teeth, just screw back the toothpaste to the brush head, and also the handle cover. Push back the cap to the handle cover to protect the toothbrush. A new toothpaste can be replaced if the old one is finished.
