Toothbrush cup, flip-open

Flip-open toothbrush cup with mirror

The flip-open, almost 8 cm toothbrush cup is stored in a small yellow can. After opening the white lid including an attached mirror, five plastic rings on a stand can be lifted up to create a toothbrush cup. The diagonal form and increasing sizes of the plastic rings ensure its stability, since the rings fit into each other, creating a conical cup. After being used, applying a little pressure to the cup folds it together for storage. The space-saving construction was very useful on journeys, since it could fit into a toiletry bag or a trouser pocket. The folded cup was available in many different colours.
