  • Patent number: 10327540
    Abstract: An effective assembly for a toothbrush holder is achieved by applying a biasing member's force to cause two portions of an enclosure, each receiving one of two rollers. In this way, the biasing action can be used both for the roller action as well as for keeping the enclosure closed around the toothbrush head.

  • Publication number: 20180084901
    Abstract: A toothbrush holder enclosure is provided which includes: a back plate, a resilient clamp, a front cover and a sanitation agent dispenser. The back plate and front cover form a housing. The clamp is made of a resilient material giving it a springy property and shaped to urge two clamp arms towards one another in order for the clamp to grip a toothbrush. Two rollers at the tips of the clamp arms engage a toothbrush head inserted in the clamp as the clamp is spread apart from the clamped position to a deviated state. With the toothbrush inserted, the rollers exert pressure on a neck of the toothbrush to hold the toothbrush fast in place with bristles generally oriented and generally aligned with a dispensing orifice supplied with sanitation agent from a reservoir of the dispenser. An actuator causes sanitation agent to issue from the dispensing orifice.

  • Patent number: 9596960
    Abstract: A toothbrush holder enclosure is provided which includes a three parts: a back plate, a resilient clamp and a front cover. The back plate and front cover form a housing. The clamp part has an inverted “U” shape and is made of a resilient material giving it a springy property. The clamp is shaped to urge two clamp arms towards one another in order for the clamp to grip a toothbrush. Two rollers at the tips of the clamp arms engage a toothbrush head inserted in the clamp as the clamp is spread apart from the clamped position to a deviated state. With the toothbrush inserted, the rollers exert pressure on a neck of the toothbrush to hold the toothbrush fast in place. The rolling engagement action of the rollers permits gripping toothbrushes having heads fitted with rubber sides.
