PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve problems of a conventional tongue cleaning tool which is designed to scrape off the stains by operating a handle, applying the action part at the tip end to a part in the depth of the tongue surface, and rubbing off to the front, the tool hurting the tongue or often causing people to feel vomiting each time when the position of the action part is displaced.SOLUTION: In a pair of hook-and-loop fasteners, the loop side with the surface processed densely with loop or mohair shapes is cut out suitably in identical forms. Using the two forms, with the reverse sides oppositely faced, a bag-like sheath part is made vertically in the center and sewn up in the peripheral edge, with the upper and lower parts integrated. In that sheath part, a holding part having a curve prepared in the handle point is fixedly inserted and wetted with water to make an operation part with the loop part on the side curved downward. The operation part is applied to the surface of the tongue and held between the teeth without moving it. Then, with the mouth closed, the user moves the tongue right and left and backward and forward while lightly applying the tongue to the lower face of the loop part. The tongue comes into contact with a large region of the loop-shaped single yarn. Since the pressure is dispersed, the tongue is unharmed, and since the operation part has no action, nausea is reduced, with only the stains efficiently captured, and with the cleaning tool intact.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】従来の舌の清浄用具は、柄を動作し、先端の作用部を、舌の表面の奥側一部に押し当て、手前へと引きこすり、汚れをかき出すもので、舌を痛たり作用部の位置を移し変える都度、吐き気をもよおす人が少なからずいた。【解決手段】一対の面ファスナーの内、表面をループ状やモヘア状に密集し加工が施されたメス側を適宜同形に切り抜き、2枚を用い、裏面を向かい合わせ、中央を縦長に袋状の鞘部を設け縁周りと共に縫い、上下一体化し、その鞘部に柄の先にカーブを施した支持部を差込み固定し、水でぬらし、下方にカーブした側のループ部を作用部とし、舌の表面に当て咥え、柄を支え持ち動作せず、口を閉じたまま、自ら舌を、ループ部下面に軽く押し当てながら前後左右に動作し、舌は、密集し施されたループ状の単糸の広範囲に接触し、圧力が分散され舌を痛めず、作用部を動作しないことから吐き気も軽減でき、汚れだけを効率よく絡め取り、留めるようにした。【選択図】図7
