Publication number: 20240423767Abstract: An oral irrigator tip (120) may be configured for coupling to an oral irrigator (100) for purposes of irrigating a user's teeth, gums, and interproximal regions. The oral irrigator tip (120) may have a first end (123) having an inlet (124), a second end (125) having an outlet (126), and an internal fluid passageway (128) that extends from the inlet (124) to the outlet (126). The oral irrigator tip (120) may further have an attachment portion (130) for coupling the oral irrigator tip (120) to an oral irrigator handle (110). The outlet (126) may have a polygonal shape or the outlet (220) may be elongated or the outlet (320) may include multiple outlets (321, 322, 323) that are linearly aligned.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 10, 2021Publication date: December 26, 2024Applicant: Colgate-Palmolive CompanyInventors: Jiang ZHOU, Tonny HE, Yanmei JI

Publication number: 20240366350Abstract: An oral irrigator tip (120) for an oral irrigator (100). The oral irrigator tip (120) may be configured for coupling to an oral irrigator (100) for purposes of irrigating a users teeth, gums, and interproximal regions. The oral irrigator tip (120) contains a dispensing member (150) in its interior, and the dispensing member (150) leaches an oral care agent during use as a fluid such as water flows past the dispensing member (150) within the interior of the oral irrigator tip (120). The oral irrigator tip (120) may be a monolithic structure. The dispensing member (150) may be non-removable from the interior of the oral irrigator tip (120), such that upon depletion of the oral care agent from the dispensing member (150) the entire oral irrigator tip (120) is replaced. The dispensing member (150) may be in the shape of a torus such that the dispensing member (150) does not impede the flow of the fluid through the oral irrigator tip (120).Type: ApplicationFiled: September 10, 2021Publication date: November 7, 2024Applicant: Colgate-Palmolive CompanyInventors: Jiang ZHOU, Tonny HE

Publication number: 20240342836Abstract: A gear box having a carburized shaft and steel bearing assembly. The bearing includes an inner-race and an outer-race. The shaft includes a distal end surface extending perpendicularly from a shaft faying surface and a shaft annular beveled edge. The shaft faying surface is in intimate contact with the inner-race. The inner-race second annular face is coplanar with the distal end surface. The shaft annular beveled edge cooperates with the inner-race faying surface to define a half-V shaped groove. An annular weld joint is formed in the half-V shaped groove thereby joining the shaft to the inner-race. The outer-race includes a first width (W1) and the inner-race includes a second width (W2). W2 is wider than W1 by greater than 0 millimeters (mm) to about 10 mm.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 12, 2023Publication date: October 17, 2024Inventors: Huaxin Li, Yi Liu, Sen Jiang Zhou, Jack M. Gayney

Patent number: 12053083Abstract: An oral care implement having a head with a plurality of cleaning elements coupled thereto and extending therefrom. In the exemplified embodiment, the cleaning elements have a plurality of bristle tufts each including a plurality of bristle filaments. In one aspect, the oral care implement may include a first bristle tuft having inner and outer filaments with the outer filaments being taller than the inner filaments and a second bristle tuft having inner and outer filaments with the outer filaments being shorter than the inner filaments. The first bristle tufts may be arranged on the head in a position so as to surround the second bristle tufts, or the second bristle tufts may be arranged on the head in a position so as to surround the first bristle tufts. Distal ends of the first and second bristle tufts may be angled.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2023Date of Patent: August 6, 2024Assignee: Colgate-Palmolive CompanyInventors: Chang L.
