Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A brush head of a toothbrush comprising:
 a head body having a mounting surface and multiple mounting holes defined in the mounting surface; and   multiple hair assemblies mounted respectively in the mounting holes and each hair assembly comprising   at least one bundle of soft hairs mounted in a corresponding one of the mounting holes and having a hardness; and   a bundle of hard hairs mounted in the corresponding mounting hole, enclosed by the at least one bundle of soft hairs and having a hardness larger than that of the soft hairs.   
   
   
       2 . The brush head as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the mounting holes are circular; and
 each hair assembly has one bundle of soft hairs being annular and mounted around the bundle of hard hairs of the hair assembly.   
   
   
       3 . The brush head as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the mounting holes are ellipsoid;
 each hair assembly has two bundles of soft hairs being mounted respectively at two ends of the corresponding ellipsoid mounting hole; and   the bundle of hard hairs of each hair assembly is enclosed between the two bundles of soft hairs of the hair assembly.   
   
   
       4 . The brush head as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein
 the mounting holes comprises multiple circular first mounting holes and multiple ellipsoid second mounting holes;   the hair assemblies comprises multiple first hair assemblies mounted respectively in the circular first mounting holes and multiple second hair assemblies mounted respectively in the ellipsoid second mounting holes;   each first hair assembly has one bundle of soft hairs being annular and mounted around the bundle of hard hairs of the first hair assembly;   each second hair assembly has two bundles of soft hairs being mounted respectively at two ends of the corresponding ellipsoid second mounting hole; and   the bundle of hard hairs of each second hair assembly is enclosed between the two bundles of soft hairs of the second hair assembly.   
   
   
       5 . The brush head as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein
 the first mounting holes are arranged in two parallel lines; and   the second mounting holes are arranged around the first mounting holes.   
   
   
       6 . The brush head as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the head body further comprises multiple massage elements mounted on and protruding from the mounting surface of the head body. 
   
   
       7 . The brush head as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein the massage elements comprises multiple massage rods arranged in two lines; and
 the hair assemblies are mounted between the two lines of the massage rods.   
   
   
       8 . The brush head as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein each massage rod has a flat top. 
   
   
       9 . The brush head as claimed in  claim 6 , the head body further comprises multiple third mounting holes; and
 each third mounting hole has one bundle of soft hairs mounted in the third mounting hole.   
   
   
       10 . The brush head as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein the massage elements comprises two massage plates parallel with each other and two curved massage panels; and
 the hair assemblies are mounted between the massage plates.   
   
   
       11 . The brush head as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the head body further comprises multiple massage elements mounted on and protruding from the mounting surface of the head body. 
   
   
       12 . The brush head as claimed in  claim 11 , wherein the massage elements comprises multiple massage rods arranged in two lines; and
 the hair assemblies are mounted between the two lines of the massage rods.   
   
   
       13 . The brush head as claimed in  claim 12 , wherein each massage rod has a flat top. 
   
   
       14 . The brush head as claimed in  claim 11 , wherein the massage elements comprises two massage plates parallel with each other and two curved massage panels; and
 the hair assemblies are mounted between the massage plates.   
   
   
       15 . The brush head as claimed in  claim 4 , the head body further comprises multiple third mounting holes; and
