"Toilet cockscomb cleaning brush"

The present invention relates to a toilet cleaning brush which, due to the special cut of the bristles, ensures better accessibility to the toilet flush rims and is thus intended to fulfil its function in households and/or other areas/facilities, particularly from a hygienic point of view.

Most of the toilet brushes with rim cleaners available on the market today are characterized by the fact that an additional toilet rim cleaner made from a wire loop or a round wire brush is attached to the side of the brush head. However, such additional brushes make cleaning more difficult due to their asymmetrical design and can easily lead to the toilet brush becoming jammed accidentally. The result is that the rim cleaners often bend or break.

The aim of this innovation is therefore to significantly improve and simplify handling, especially in the area of toilet rim cleaning.

This object is achieved according to the invention by the features characterized in claim 1 of this utility model application. The advantage of this innovation is that the rim of the sink can be cleaned effortlessly by simply cutting the bristles, thus making the additional attachment of an additional rim cleaning brush superfluous.

An example of the innovation is shown in the drawing and is described in more detail below. It shows:

Fig. 1, a schematic representation of the toilet tap comb cleaning brush with a tap comb that runs transversely to the handle direction in the front area of the brush.

Fig. 2, a schematic representation of the toilet tap comb cleaning brush with a tap comb that runs the entire height of the brush in the longitudinal direction of the brush handle.

Fig. 3, a side view of a toilet tap comb cleaning brush, cleaning a toilet flush rim.

The toilet tap comb cleaning brush (Fig. 1) is fitted with bristles (1) which are shaped in such a way that they form a comb (2) and use this comb to enable the toilet flush rim to be cleaned perfectly and easily. The tap comb (2) can be inserted into the brush head (3) as a single piece together with the entire bristles (1) or as a separate component. Furthermore, the tap comb (2) can be made in a wide variety of designs and can be fixed in a wide variety of areas of the brush head (3) or the entire bristles (1). The comb (2) can be formed in the upper area, in the middle area or in the lower area of the entire bristles (1). However, it is also possible to form the tap comb (2) so that it runs in the longitudinal direction of the brush head (Fig. 2). It is also possible to design the tap comb (2) and the rest of the bristles (1) in different colors. The design of this toilet tap comb cleaning brush also allows it to be easily immersed in a wide variety of downpipes. In any case, the toilet tap comb cleaning brush is easy and inexpensive to manufacture. The lack of additional wire brushes means that longer, wear-free use can be guaranteed.

The cockscomb (2) can consist of a different material (e.g. sponge) instead of bristles in at least one part. The cockscomb (2) can be designed as a separate component so that it is attached to the brush head (3) by snapping, gluing, welding or screwing.

The bristles of the overall bristle assembly (1) and/or the cockscomb (2) can be arranged at the same angle to each other and/or at different angles to each other or to the direction of the brush head (3).

The handle (4) and the brush head (3) can be made in one or two parts - i.e. interchangeable - and should preferably be made of plastic. Bristles made of plastic and/or other materials can be used for the entire bristle (1) and/or the cock's comb (2).
