Description of the Invention: [Technical Field to which the Invention pertains] Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an improvement of a toothbrush. The priority of the present application is based on the priority of Japanese Patent Application No. 2010-068132, the entire disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference. t 4 mark 3 BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Generally, a toothbrush is attached to a planting hole previously provided at the head of the grip member, and the bristles of nylon and polybutylene dicarboxylate (PBT) are spliced by a flat wire. Fixed and manufactured. Because the hair bundles that are implanted are folded in a flat line, it becomes difficult to fall off from the planting hole. As a material of the head, polypropylene (PP) is widely used in terms of cost and formability. Incidentally, in order to easily carry out each corner of the oral cavity with a toothbrush, particularly the brushing of the posterior teeth, the thickness of the head of the hair bundle is preferably thin. For example, in Patent Document 1, the operability in the oral cavity is promoted as a toothbrush which proposes a handle member composed of a polyacetal resin and which simultaneously thins the head to 3 to 4 mm. [Prior Art Document] [Patent Document] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. Hei 7-143914. [Brief Description of the Invention] Summary of the Invention Problems to be Solved by the Invention 201143675 However, even in the toothbrush described in Patent Document 1, the operability in the oral cavity is insufficient, and a brush may be generated. Further, if the head is thinned, the folding strength of the head may be lowered. Further, as the strength is lowered, there is a situation in which the appearance is poor due to cracks or whitening at the edge portion of the head. The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and it is intended to provide a toothbrush which is excellent in operability in the oral cavity and which has sufficient strength in the case where the hair bundle is not easily detached from the planting hole. Means for Solving the Problem A first aspect of the invention of the present application includes a slightly plate-shaped head having a plurality of planting holes on a hair-planting surface, and folding the hair bundles of the bristles into a head. In the flat line therebetween, the aforementioned hair-planting hole is inserted, thereby implanting the hair bundle into the toothbrush which is disposed in the aforementioned planting hole, the thickness of the head is 2.0 to 4.0 mm, and the outermost planting of the head width direction The toothbrush with the shortest distance between the hair and the edge is 0.4~0.9mm. According to a second aspect of the invention, in the toothbrush of the first aspect, the head of the toothbrush is a toothbrush composed of a polybutylene terephthalate resin. EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION In the toothbrush of the present invention, the hair bundle is less likely to fall off from the planting hole, and is excellent in handleability in the oral cavity. Further, since it has sufficient strength, it is possible to prevent the head from being reduced in folding strength and appearance. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS Fig. 1 is a side view showing an embodiment of a toothbrush of the present invention. Fig. 2 is a plan view showing the enlarged surface of the head of the toothbrush shown in Fig. 1 201143675. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Embodiments for Carrying Out the Invention An embodiment of a toothbrush according to the present invention will be described. The toothbrush of this embodiment is shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 . The toothbrush 1' of the present embodiment has a grip member 1a and a tuft lb; wherein the grip member ia is provided with a head portion 10, and the tufts lb are implanted in the planting pockets u provided at the head portion 1b. The grip member 1a has a head portion 10, a grip portion 2b that is gripped during use, and a neck portion 3配置 disposed between the head portion 1〇 and the grip portion 2〇. In the present embodiment, the grip member la, the head portion 10, the grip portion 2, and the neck portion 30 are made of the same resin. As the resin constituting the grip member la, for example, polybutylene terephthalate resin (PBT), polypropylene resin (PP), polyacetal resin (p〇M), and polycyclohexane can be used. A part of polycyclohexane dimethylene terephthalate (PCA) substituted with an iso-g-acid. Further, as the resin constituting the grip member la, a resin having an appropriate rigidity and toughness is preferable, and a resin having a flexural modulus of 1900 MPA or more and a tensile breakage ratio of 80% or more is preferable. Here, the term "bending modulus" means the enthalpy measured in accordance with ISO 178; the term "tensile breakage rate" means enthalpy measured in accordance with ISO 527-1, 2. As long as the aforementioned flexural modulus is 1900 MPA or more and the aforementioned tensile breakage ratio is 80 °/. In the above case, the toughness of the grip member 1a becomes sufficiently high, and even if the head portion 10 of 201143675 is thinned, the impact is less likely to be broken, and the broken surface is prevented from becoming a corner. The upper limit of the flexural modulus and the tensile breakage rate is not particularly limited, and may be any resin which is usually used, and has a flexural modulus of 5,000 MPA or less and a tensile breakage ratio of 500% or less. From the viewpoint that the above-mentioned flexural modulus and tensile breakage rate can be easily satisfied, a polybutylene terephthalate resin is preferred. Further, the polybutylene terephthalate resin is excellent in chemical resistance and heat resistance. Therefore, the toothbrush 1 using the polybutylene terephthalate resin in the grip member la is less deteriorated even in a long period of use, and since the hair bundle 1b is firmly fixed even by a flat wire, it is not easily broken. And can become higher quality. Polybutylene terephthalate resin is a thermoplastic polyester produced by polycondensation reaction using terephthalic acid or dinonyl phthalate and 1 '4 butanediol as a raw material, for example, For example, DURANEX manufactured by Polyplastics Co., Ltd., NOVADURAN manufactured by Mitsubishi Engineering-Plastics Corporation, TORCON manufactured by Toray Inc., and the like can be used. The head portion 10 is a slightly flat portion, and the hair bundles 1b are implanted in a plurality of planting hairs 11' which are disposed on the hair-growing surface 10a. In the present embodiment, the hair-growing surface 10a of the head portion 10 has a substantially rectangular shape, and the two edges 12 in the width direction are parallel to each other and along the longitudinal direction of the grip member la, and the edge 13 on the foremost end side is formed in a curved shape. The thickness T of the head 10 is 2.0 to 4.0 mm, and preferably 2.5 to 3.5 mm. If the thickness T of the head 卩 is less than 2 mm, the head folding strength will be low. 6 201143675 When the tooth is being brushed, the head 10 is damaged. In addition, it becomes impossible to ensure that the hair bundle is maintained in a flat line. The full planting hole of lb is 〖depth. On the other hand, if the thickness T of the head portion 10 exceeds 4 mm, the operability in the oral cavity may become insufficient. The shortest distance w between the outermost planting hole 11a and the edge 12 in the width direction of the head portion 10 (the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction) (hereinafter, this distance W is referred to as "edge width W"). 0.4~〇_9mm, preferably 〇.6~〇8mm. When the width W of the edge of the head 10 is less than 〇4 mm, the head is not strong enough to withstand the folding, and the stress generated by the planting of the hair is deformed at the edge portion of the head. When the edge width W exceeds 0.9 mm, the edge width W becomes wider with respect to the thickness T of the head, and finally, when brushing the teeth or the like, the head 1 contacts the tooth and the buccal mucosa, and the operability is lowered, and the brush becomes Poor touch. Further, in the head portion 10, the shortest distance between the planting pocket ub on the longitudinal most distal end side of the head portion 10 and the edge 13 on the distal end side is preferably 0.4 to 0.9 mm. When the shortest distance between the plucking hole lib and the edge 13 on the distal end side is less than 0.4 mm, the head has a defect strength of less than 0.9 mm, and if it is more than 0.9 mm, the operability in the oral cavity is lowered. The grip portion 20 is a rod-shaped portion having a length that the user can grip. In the grip portion 20, the soft resin may be partially or entirely covered in order to improve the grip. As the soft resin, a soft resin having a hardness (JIS K6253 hardness test, test condition JISA) of 5 to 100 is preferable, and a soft resin of 20 to 60 is more preferable. As long as the hardness of the soft resin is 5 or more, it has sufficient softness and the grip property is further improved. 201143675 Specific examples of the soft resin include a polyolefin-based thermoplastic elastomer, a poly-cage 1, a vinyl-ruthenium thermoplastic elastomer, a polyamine phthalate-based thermoplastic elastomer, and a thermoplastic elastomer. , 2-polybutadiene-based thermoplastic elastomers! · Bio-ethylene-vinyl acetate-based thermoplastic elastomers, polyvinyl chloride-based thermoplastics, ij1 raw, natural rubber-based thermoplastic elastomers, fluorine-based thermoplastic elastomers A trans-polyisoprene-based thermoplastic elastomer or the like. When the polybutylene terephthalate tree ruthenium is used as the resin constituting the grip member la, it is preferable to use a polyfluorene-based thermoplastic elastomer as the soft resin from the viewpoint of compatibility. Examples of the polyester-based thermoplastic elastomer include Hytrel manufactured by DU PONT-TORAY CO., LTD., and pRIMALL® Y manufactured by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation. The neck portion 30' is a portion that connects the head portion 1'' to the grip portion 2''. The width of the neck 30 is less than the width of the head 1 。. Since the width of the neck 3〇 is smaller than the width of the head 10, it becomes easy to insert the head 10 into the oral cavity. The tuft lb is composed of the bristles which are folded in half, and the flat line which is inserted between the bristles which are folded in is inserted into the planting hole 11, thereby being fixed to the head 10. Examples of the material of the bristles include polydecylamine (for example, nylon 6-12, nylon 6-10, 12 nylon, etc.), polyester (for example, polyethylene terephthalate, poly Polypropylene terephthalate, polybutylene terephthalate, etc., polypropylene, elastomer, natural materials, and the like. Moreover, these materials can be combined. The cross-sectional shape of the bristles is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include a circular shape, a triangular shape, a square shape, a hexagonal shape, a petal shape, and an arc shape. Moreover, these shapes may be combined. Further, the bristles may be processed into a wave shape, a twist shape, or a meander shape in advance 8 201143675 and the like. The outer diameter of the bristles is preferably 3 to 15 mils (i.e., ο"% to 〇 38 lmm), more preferably 5 to 10 mils (i.e., 0.127 to 0.254 mm). Further, each of the bristles may be a normal hair having a similar diameter except for the rounded hair tip at the tip end of the bristles, or may be a tapered hair which is tapered toward the outer diameter of the catastrophic end. It is also possible to mix the ordinary hair with the tapered hair, or to change each of the hairs. The tapered hair system has a good penetration into the narrow gap and can achieve a soft touch. It is more suitable for brushing and massaging the tooth neck. For example, the taper hair which is tapered at both ends of the Japanese Patent Publication No. Hei 6-141923, and the one end of which is described in JP-A-57-50220, is tapered. The tapered bristles of the stalks of the stalks of the stalks of the stalks of the stalks of the stalks of the stalks of The tapered hairs of the core-sheath structure described in Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. H1 178542. The length of the bristles is preferably 7 to ISmm, more preferably 8 to 13 mm. Further, the lengths of the bristles may be the same or not, and may not be the same. The brushing surface formed by the front end of the whole hair bundle lb, for example, a plane parallel to the hair-planting surface U)a; or a plane inclined with respect to the hair-planting surface (10); gradually along the longitudinal direction relative to the hair-planting surface 1Ga Separate or gradually approach a curved surface, convex surface, concave surface, or wavy concave and convex surface. From the point of view of the above-mentioned easy-to-sweep, it is preferable to use a plane or a curved surface which is inclined from the front end toward the rear end toward the center of the hair-planting face. 201143675 The length of the aforementioned flat wire is preferably such that the bristles can be surely fixed without causing cracks and whitening at the head portion 10. Specifically, it is better to have a flat line with a length of 0.3 to 0.5 mm longer than the hairy hole. The height of the flat wire is not particularly limited, and it is preferably in the range of 0.9 to 2.0 mm in order to ensure sufficient penetration strength and at the same time ensure hairiness. Further, for the same reason, the thickness of the flat wire is preferably 0.20 to 0.25 mm. Further, the angle of penetration of the aforementioned flat wire is suitably selected to avoid cracking and whitening, and is 5 to 80 with respect to the longitudinal direction of the grip member la. The range is good, to 15~30. The range is better. The angle of the above-mentioned flat line is the same for all the flat lines, and it may be different. As the material of the flat wire, metal, plastic, or the like can be used. From the viewpoint of strength, productivity, and cost, it is preferable that metal is preferable, and brass or aluminum is more preferable. On the other hand, the surface of the flat wire is formed such that it is not easily detached from the planting hole 1 and grooves and fine irregularities are formed. In the present embodiment, the planting hole 11 is formed in a circular shape and arranged in a lattice shape on the hair-growing surface 10a of the head portion 10. The shape of the depth direction of the hair-planting hole 11 may be a cylindrical shape having no change in the shape in the depth direction, or may be a tapered shape which becomes smaller toward the lower hole diameter, and a shape having a height difference in the middle of the hole is also formed. can. Further, the shape of the depression and the taper may be different, and a chamfering process of about 3 mm may be applied to the bottom of the planting hole 11. The hole diameter of the opening portion of the planting hole 11 is preferably 1 〇 to 2. mm (i.e., the area 〇·75 to 3.l mm 2 ). By arranging the hair bundles at such a hole diameter, the touch of the tooth portion 10 201143675 is improved, and a toothbrush having a high insertion force into the thin gap of the interdental portion can be made. In the case of the toothbrush 1 described above, since the thickness T of the head portion 10 is 2.0 mm or more and the edge width W is 0.4 mm or more, sufficient strength can be secured, and as a result, the head endurance strength can be prevented from being lowered and the appearance is poor. Further, in the case of the toothbrush 1, since the thickness T of the head portion 10 is 4.0 mm or less and the edge width W is 0.9 mm or less, contact between the head portion 10 in the oral cavity can be prevented, and as a result, the oral operability is excellent. Further, in the case of the toothbrush 1, since the tufts 1b are fixed to the planting pockets 11 by the flat wires, they are less likely to fall off. Furthermore, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. The head 10, the grip portion 20, and the neck portion 30 may be formed of the same resin. Further, the head portion 10 is preferably in the above-described range with the same thickness as the whole, and a portion of the neck portion 30, preferably 1/3 or less of the length of the head portion 10, may be thickened as in the above embodiment. . By making the neck portion 30 of the head 10 thick, it is possible to smoothly connect with the neck portion 30. Further, in the toothbrush of the present invention, the neck portion 30 may also be omitted. That is, the grip member may be constituted by the head portion 10 and the grip portion 20. Further, the head portion 10 and the hair-planting surface 10a may not be slightly rectangular, and may be, for example, a circular shape or a rounded shape. The shape of the opening portion of the planting hole 11 may be a polygonal shape such as a circle, a triangle, a square or the like, and other shapes, other than the circular shape. Further, all of the hair-planting holes 11 can be formed into the same opening shape, and the shape of the opening of the 201143675 can be combined with two or more. The configuration pattern of the hair-planting hole 11 may be a staggered in-line, or may be a curved arc-shaped planting hole on the central side of the head portion 10 at the end portions on both end sides in the width direction of the head portion 10. The group mode is also available. In the case of the group of the planting hairs having the arc shape as described above, the hair bundle lb is easily adhered to the tooth neck portion. In order to improve the real feeling of the tooth surface, it is preferable that the hair bundle lb which is planted in the arc-shaped planting hair group is longer than the hair bundle lb which is planted in the hair-planting hole other than the aforementioned hair-planting group. In this case, the difference in the average bristle length is preferably 0.3 to 2.0 mm, and more preferably 0.5 to 1.5 mm. In the case of the present invention, the hair bundles 1b themselves may be formed in an arc shape, and in this case, the arc-shaped hair bundles 1 b provided at the end portions on both end sides in the width direction of the head portion 10 are grown. Hair bundles 1 b other than the others are preferred. Examples In the following examples, the following resins were used.
