Abstract
An electrically driven toothbrush that includes a switch lever engaged with a hole for switching a motor on and off, the hole being defined through an end wall of a dry cell cap. The switch lever includes a manipulation control portion, a revolving shaft portion, a spherical operating portion, and a lever portion, all formed integrally by a flexible member. The toothbrush includes an electric circuit-connecting terminal structure for joining the motor and dry cell in communication with one another, which terminal structure is formed by first and second terminal members. The first and second terminal members each includes a platelike L-shaped main body, and the platelike main body of the second terminal member is resilient so as to return to a predetermined L-shape when no external forces are exerted thereon.
