Abstract
A personal care implement comprises a head and a handle, the head being repeatedly attachable to and detachable from the handle. The personal care implement exhibits a sound when the head gets attached to or detached from the handle, thereby providing a signal of secure attachment or detachment. The sound is characterized by a tonal component of about 4000 Hz to about 6000 Hz, preferably over a time length of about 0.1 s to about 0.3 s, on a tonality frequency vs. time analysis.

Use of a sound characterized by a tonal component of about 4000 Hz to about 6000 Hz over a time length of about 0.1 s to about 0.3 s on a tonality frequency vs. time analysis (Hearing Model), for providing a signal of securely attaching and/or detaching a head (16, 1114) to and from a handle (12, 112, 1112) of a personal care implement (10, 100, 2000).
A personal care implement (10, 100, 2000) comprising a head (16, 1114) and a handle (12, 112, 1112), the head (16, 1114) being repeatedly attachable to and detachable from the handle (12, 112, 1112), the personal care implement (10, 100, 2000) exhibiting a sound when the head (16, 1114) gets attached to and/or detached from the handle (12, 112, 1112), thereby providing a signal of secure attachment or detachment, the sound being characterized by a tonal component of about 4000 Hz to about 6000 Hz, over a time length of about 0.1 s to about 0.3 s on a tonality frequency vs. time analysis (Hearing Model).
A sound for providing a signal of securely attaching and/or detaching a head (16, 1114) to and from a handle (12, 112, 1112) of a personal care implement (10, 100, 2000), the sound being characterized by a tonal component of about 4000 Hz to about 6000 Hz over a time length of about 0.1 s to about 0.3 s on a tonality frequency vs. time analysis (Hearing Model), wherein the sound is characterized by a tonal component of about 4800 Hz to about 5400 Hz over a time length of about 0.12 s to about 0.28 s on a tonality frequency vs. time analysis (Hearing Model).
