Abstract (en)
[origin: GB2316301A] A hairbrush comprises a head 1, provided with bristles 10, and a handle 3 which are connected together via an interconnecting portion 2. The interconnecting portion 2 comprises two open-ended hollow cylinders 21, 22 which extend from the head 1 and handle 3 respectively and telescopically overlap to provide a journal bearing arrangement. A resilient flexible member 25 is located within the overlapping hollow cylinders 21, 22, and is attached at both ends 27 to the head 1 and handle 3 respectively and acts to bias the head 1 and handle 3 into a particular rotational orientation with respect to one another while allowing the head to rotate relative to the handle during use.
