  • Publication number: 20160135579
    Abstract: A head for an oral care implement has at least a first row of tufts including a plurality of filaments having free ends and fixed ends being opposite the free ends and being fixed on a mounting surface of the head. The filaments of the at least first row of tufts extend from the mounting surface of the head in different length extensions thereby defining with the filaments' free ends an upper top cleaning surface in the form of a continuous wave-shape. Each filament has a longitudinal axis and a cross-sectional area extending in a plane that is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The filaments of the longest length extension have a cross-sectional area being smaller than the cross-sectional area of the filaments of the shortest length extension.

  • Publication number: 20070062968
    Abstract: A pack of tissues includes multiple interfolded tissues arranged in a stack and an external envelope enclosing the stack. The external envelope includes a dispensing orifice and the tissues are folded so as to include a leading panel, an optional central panel, a trailing panel, a leading fold and an optional trailing fold, wherein the leading fold separates the leading panel from the central panel and the optional trailing fold separates the optional central panel from the trailing panel. The stack has a first tissue and an second tissue, the second tissue being positioned next to the first tissue in the stack and further away in the stack from said dispensing orifice. The tissues are interfolded so as to have an overlapping portion of the first tissue under a portion of the second tissue. The surface area of the overlapping portions is not constant throughout the stack; preferably it increases with the distance to the dispensing orifice.

  • Publication number: 20070062966
    Abstract: A pack of wipes including multiple wipes arranged in a stack and an external envelope enclosing the stack. The external envelope includes a dispensing orifice and the wipes are folded so as to include a leading panel, a central panel, a trailing panel, a leading fold and a trailing fold, wherein the leading fold separates the leading panel from the central panel and the trailing fold separates the central panel from the trailing panel. The stack has a first wipe and a second wipe. The first wipe is placed closest to the dispensing orifice and the second wipe is positioned next to the first wipe in the stack, wherein the removal of the first wipe through the dispensing orifice induces a portion of the central panel of the second wipe and a portion of the leading panel of the second wipe to protrude from the dispensing orifice and to stay in contact to each other.
