Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of machinery, in particular to a toothbrush. Background Art

[0002] The brush head of an existing electric toothbrush has bristles on only one side. Since the upper and lower teeth are convex, it is difficult to effectively clean the upper and inner sides of the teeth, which easily forms a blind spot when brushing teeth. When brushing teeth, it is necessary to change the direction of the brush head many times to clean the outer and inner sides of the teeth and the surface of the molars, which is time-consuming and laborious, and easily forms a bad brushing habit. Alternatively, there are some existing wrap-around toothbrushes with bristles on three sides. When brushing teeth, the bristles of the toothbrush wrap around the teeth in a wrap-around manner. However, since the bristles on the three sides are relatively fixed, they cannot adapt to the thickness change between the incisors and molars, resulting in inconvenience in use and cannot adapt to most people. In particular, for the molars on the inner side of the oral cavity, the bristles on the upper side of the toothbrush do not change their position as the thickness change between the incisors and molars, which is not conducive to cleaning the upper surface of the teeth, especially for the grooves in the middle part of the upper surface of the molars, the cleaning effect is not good.

[0048] The first rotating shaft is in the shape of an inverted truncated cone. A mounting groove 11 is provided at the front of the brush head handle. The width of the rear part of the mounting groove is greater than the width of the upper part of the rotating shaft. The width of the front part of the mounting groove gradually decreases from top to bottom. The front part of the mounting groove is connected to the first rotating shaft hole. An embedded block 13 for inserting into the mounting groove is installed at the front of the brush head handle. The front part of the embedded block is provided with a contact surface for resisting the first rotating shaft. The contact surface is an arc surface. An insertion hole is provided on the brush head handle. A plug 12 for inserting into the insertion hole is provided at the rear part of the embedded block. The truncated cone-shaped first rotating shaft ensures the connection strength between the brush head handle and the rear brush plate. During installation, the first rotating shaft penetrates into the rear part of the mounting groove and slides into the first rotating shaft hole through the front part of the mounting groove.
