Patent attributes
A toothbrush head may include a brush section with bristles thereon, a stem extending from the brush section and a coupling member mountable to inside the stem. The coupling member may have a body that has an opening for receiving a drive shaft of an electric toothbrush handle into the coupling member, and a handle coupling section extending from the body and having a wall and an aperture within the wall for receiving the drive shaft. The wall has at least two longitudinal slits and a resilient wall between the two slits, where the resilient wall may engage with the drive shaft when the drive shaft is inserted into the coupling member. At least a portion of the body of the coupling member and at least a portion of the stem may each have a cone shape that corresponds to each other to achieve a coupling.
