[0002] When using a personal care device, people often control its functions via buttons located inside the handle.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0065] To make the features and advantages of this application more obvious and easy to understand, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of this application.

[0066] The terms "first," "second," "third," and the like in the specification and claims of this application and the accompanying drawings are used to distinguish between different objects, not to describe a particular order. Furthermore, the terms "including," "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus comprising a series of steps or elements is not limited to the listed steps or elements, but may optionally include steps or elements not listed, or may optionally include other steps or elements inherent to the process, method, product, or apparatus.

[0067] Please refer to Figure 1, which exemplarily shows a schematic diagram of the structure of a handle provided in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 1, the handle is applied to a personal care device and may include: a housing 110, N detection modules 120, and a controller 130. Among them:

[0068] The housing 110 has a receiving cavity 111, and a detection area 121 corresponding to the plurality of detection modules 120 is provided on the housing 110. The detection area 121 of the housing 110 is a seamless structure.

[0069] N detection modules 120 are located in the accommodating cavity 111. The detection module 120 generates a valid signal when it detects that the distance between the object and the detection module 120 meets the preset condition. The above-mentioned N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2. The above-mentioned preset condition can be that the detection module 120 detects that the distance between the object and the detection module 120 is less than or equal to the first preset distance threshold, or it can be the distance between the detection module 120 and the detection area 121 corresponding to the outer surface of the housing 110, for example, when the user's hand touches the detection area 121, the distance between the hand and the detection module 120, which is not specifically limited in this application. The above-mentioned first preset distance threshold can be 1mm, 2mm, 5mm, 10mm, etc., which is not specifically limited in this application.

[0070] The above-mentioned N detection modules 120 may include any one or more permutations and combinations of ultrasonic modules, photoelectric sensors, and piezoelectric sensors. The above-mentioned N detection modules 120 may also include other contact sensors in addition to the above-mentioned three modules. This application does not make specific limitations on this.

[0071] When the detection module 120 is a photoelectric sensor, its corresponding detection area 121 is a light-transmitting structure formed on the housing 110. When the photoelectric sensor detects that the distance between the object and the photoelectric sensor blocks the light in the detection area 121 of the light-transmitting structure, a valid signal will be generated.

[0072] When the detection module 120 is an ultrasonic module, Figure 1B As shown, the detection module 120 may include a transmitting unit 122 and a receiving unit 123. In this case, there is no need to perform special processing on the detection area 121 of the housing 110 corresponding to the detection module 120, such as no light-transmitting or thinning processing. The detection module 120 can transmit ultrasonic waves to the outside of the detection area 121 through the transmitting unit 122, and when the ultrasonic waves encounter an object 140 outside the detection area 121 and the distance between the ultrasonic waves and the detection module 120 is less than or equal to the first preset distance threshold, that is, when a person's hand approaches the detection area 121, or the distance between the detection module 120 and the detection area 121 corresponding to the outer surface of the housing 110, that is, when a person's hand touches the detection area 121, the ultrasonic waves will be reflected back by the object 140, directly pass through the detection area 121, and be received by the receiving unit 123, that is, generate a valid signal, thereby improving the surface consistency of the housing.

[0073] When the detection module 120 is a piezoelectric sensor, the detection area 121 corresponding to the shell 110 needs to be thinned to ensure that when an object such as a hand touches the detection area 121, the part of the shell 110 corresponding to the detection area 121 can be deformed and can be sensed by the piezoelectric sensor, even if the piezoelectric sensor generates a valid signal.

[0074] The controller 130 is located in the accommodating cavity 111 and is connected to the plurality of detection modules 120 respectively, so as to receive the valid signal and record the duration of the valid signal.

[0075] The controller 130 controls the personal care device to execute a target event according to the presence or absence of valid signals from some or all of the detection modules 120 and the duration of generating valid signals.

[0076] It is understandable that the handle structure involved in this application is not limited to Figure 1A The number and positions of the detection modules 120 and controller 130 disposed within the housing 111 of the handle housing 110 shown are for illustrative purposes only. In a specific implementation, the handle may include multiple detection modules 120 and controller 130. The multiple detection modules 120 may be any one or more combinations of ultrasonic modules, photoelectric sensors, piezoelectric sensors, and the like. The positional distribution of the multiple detection modules 120 and controller 130 within the housing 111 may also be configured based on actual needs, and this is not specifically limited in the present embodiment.

[0077] Next, combine Figure 1A-1B , introduces a control method of a personal care device provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. For details, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 The flowchart of a control method of a personal care device provided by an embodiment of the present application is exemplarily shown. The personal care device includes Figure 1A The handle shown in FIG. 1 has N detection modules disposed therein, where N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2. Figure 2 As shown, the control method of the personal care device includes the following steps:

[0078] Step 201: Use M detection modules to detect valid signals.

[0079] Specifically, M detection modules 120 can be used to detect valid signals. The above-mentioned M is a positive integer less than or equal to N. The above-mentioned valid signal is the signal generated when the detection module detects an object whose distance from the above-mentioned detection module meets the preset conditions. The above-mentioned preset condition can be that the detection module 120 detects that the distance between the object and the detection module 120 is less than or equal to the first preset distance threshold, or it can be the distance between the detection module 120 and the detection area 121 corresponding to the outer surface of the housing 110, for example, when the user's hand touches the detection area 121, the distance between the hand and the detection module 120, which is not specifically limited in this application. The above-mentioned first preset distance threshold can be 12mm, 10mm, etc., which is not specifically limited in this application. It is equivalent to using M detection modules 120 for detection. If a detection module 120 among the above-mentioned M detection modules 120 detects that the distance between the object and the detection module meets the preset conditions, then the detection module 120 will generate a valid signal, that is, the detection module 120 detects a valid signal. In order to reduce the power consumption of the personal care device or avoid accidental touches, the value of M may be different in different or the same scenarios.

[0080] Optionally, when the personal care device is in the off or standby state, X detection modules 120 may be used to detect valid signals at a first preset time interval, where X is a positive integer less than or equal to M. When the personal care device is in the on state, Y detection modules 120 may be used to detect valid signals at a second preset time interval, where Y is a positive integer less than or equal to M. The first preset interval is greater than the second preset interval, and X is less than or equal to Y. The first preset interval may be 60s, 10s, etc., and the second preset interval may be 6s, 1s, etc., and this application does not limit this.

[0081] For example, if M=4, when the personal care device is in the off or standby state, only one detection module 120 can be used to perform detection at a time interval of 10s, that is, X=1, and the other detection modules 120 stop detecting. When the personal care device is turned on, four detection modules 120 can be used to perform detection at a time interval of 1s, that is, Y=4, thereby reducing the power consumption of the personal care device when it is off or in the standby state and improving the battery life of the personal care device.

[0082] Step 202: Obtain a detection result based on whether each of the M detection modules detects the valid signal.

[0083] Specifically, a detection result is obtained based on whether each of the M detection modules 120 detects the valid signal. That is, the detection result includes whether each of the M detection modules 120 detects the valid signal or does not detect the valid signal. This detection result indicates whether each of the M detection modules 120 detects an object whose distance from the detection module 120 meets the preset condition, that is, whether each of the M detection modules 120 is triggered.

[0084] For example, when M = 2, that is, when detection module 1 and detection module 2 are used to detect a valid signal, if detection module 1 detects a valid signal but detection module 2 does not, the detection result obtained based on whether each of the two detection modules detects a valid signal can be that detection module 1 detects a valid signal and detection module 2 does not detect a valid signal. In other words, the above detection result indicates that detection module 1 is triggered, while detection module 2 is not triggered.

[0085] Optionally, a detection result is obtained based on whether each detection module 120 in the above-mentioned M detection modules 120 detects the above-mentioned valid signal and based on the duration corresponding to the above-mentioned valid signal. That is, the above-mentioned detection result includes whether each detection module 120 in the above-mentioned M detection modules 120 detects the above-mentioned valid signal or does not detect the above-mentioned valid signal and the duration corresponding to the detection module 120 detecting the above-mentioned valid signal. It is equivalent to the above-mentioned detection result being used to characterize whether each detection module 120 in the above-mentioned M detection modules 120 is triggered, and the trigger duration corresponding to each triggered detection module 120. Exemplarily, the duration corresponding to the above-mentioned valid signal, i.e., the trigger duration, can be compared with a preset duration threshold to determine the user's long press or short press operation, etc. The above-mentioned preset duration threshold can be 5s, 6s, etc., which is not limited in this application.

[0086] Step 203: Based on the detection result, the personal care device is controlled to execute a target event corresponding to the detection result.

[0087] Specifically, the controller 130 can control the personal care device to execute a target event corresponding to the detection result based on the detection result. The target event includes shutting down, waiting, starting up, activating and adjusting operating parameters, and adjusting operating parameters. The adjustment of operating parameters includes adjusting the operating mode and the operating gear.

[0088] For example, when M=1, the personal care device is in shutdown or standby state, and the detection result is that a detection module 120 does not detect a valid signal, it can be considered that the user may use the personal care device, and the controller 130 can control the personal care device to turn on.

[0089] For example, when M=1, the personal care device is in the on state, the detection result is that a detection module 120 detects a valid signal, and the duration corresponding to the valid signal is 3s, if the preset duration threshold is 2s, it can be considered that the user is long pressing the detection area 121 of the detection module 120, or the detection module 120 has been triggered by an object or user for a long time, then the controller 130 can control the personal care device to shut down or standby when the detection module 120 detects the valid signal for the 2nd second.

[0090] In an embodiment of the present application, effective signals are detected by M detection modules among the N detection modules set inside the handle, and detection results are obtained based on whether each detection module among the above M detection modules detects a valid signal. Then, based on the above detection results, the above personal care device is controlled to execute the target event corresponding to the above detection result, thereby realizing precise control of the functions of the personal care device, which not only solves the problems of toothpaste powder, stains, and bacteria accumulation in the gap between the button and the shell, but also can effectively prevent misoperation.

[0091] Please refer to Figure 3A , Figure 3A The schematic diagram of the structure of another handle provided by the embodiment of the present application is shown as an example. In order to reduce the power consumption of the personal care device when it is in the off or standby state, the handle provided by the embodiment of the present application may include the following Figure 1A In addition to the housing 110, N detection modules 120 and the controller 130 shown in FIG, a tilt angle detection module may also be included. Figure 1A Based on the handle structure shown in the figure, an inclination angle detection module is added and connected to the controller 130, as shown in the figure. Figure 3A As shown, the handle may include: a housing 310, a plurality of detection modules 320, a controller 330 and a tilt angle detection module 340; wherein:

[0092] The housing 310 has a receiving cavity 311;

[0093] N detection modules 320 are located in the accommodating cavity 311. The N detection modules 320 generate a valid signal when they detect that the distance between an object and the detection module 320 meets a preset condition. The above-mentioned N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2. The above-mentioned preset condition can be that the detection module 320 detects that the distance between the object and the detection module 320 is less than or equal to a first preset distance threshold, or it can be the distance between the detection module 320 and the detection area 321 corresponding to the outer surface of the housing 310, for example, when the user's hand touches the detection area 321, the distance between the hand and the detection module 320, which is not specifically limited in this application. The above-mentioned first preset distance threshold can be 1mm, 2mm, etc., which is not specifically limited in this application.

[0094] The tilt angle detection module 340 is located within the housing 311 of the housing 310 and is configured to generate a tilt angle signal when the personal care device is in an off or standby state and detects the tilt angle of the personal care device relative to a horizontal plane. The tilt angle detection module 340 may be a gravity sensor, an inclination sensor, or the like, and is not specifically limited in this application.

[0095] The controller 330 is located in the accommodating cavity 311 and is connected to the plurality of detection modules 320 respectively, so as to receive valid signals and record the duration of the valid signals.

[0096] The controller 330 controls the personal care device to execute a target event according to the presence or absence of valid signals from some or all of the detection modules 320 and the duration of generating valid signals.

[0097] The controller 330 is also connected to the tilt angle detection module 340 and is further used to control the personal care device to start up according to the change of the tilt angle signal of the tilt angle detection module 340.

[0098] Specifically, if Figure 3B As shown, when the personal care device 350 is in the off or standby state, the tilt angle detection module 340 generates a tilt angle signal when detecting the tilt angle 1 of the personal care device 350 relative to the horizontal plane, and transmits the above tilt angle signal to the controller 330. After receiving the above tilt angle signal, the controller 330 controls the personal care device 350 to turn on according to the change of the tilt angle signal, that is, the personal care device 350 has changed from a stationary state to a picked up state.

[0099] It is understandable that the handle structure involved in this application is not limited to Figure 3AThe number and positions of the detection modules 120 and controller 130 disposed within the housing 111 of the handle housing 110, as well as the position of the tilt angle detection module 340, are shown as examples only. In a specific implementation, the handle may include multiple detection modules 120 and controller 130. The multiple detection modules 120 may be any one or more combinations of ultrasonic modules, photoelectric sensors, piezoelectric sensors, and the like. The positional distribution of the multiple detection modules 120, controller 130, and tilt angle detection module 340 within the housing 111 may also be configured based on actual needs, and this is not specifically limited in the present embodiment.

[0100] Next, combine Figure 3A-3B , introduces another control method of a personal care device provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. For details, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 The flowchart of a control method of a personal care device provided by an embodiment of the present application is exemplified. Figure 4 As shown, the control method of the personal care device includes the following steps:

[0101] Step 401 : When the personal care device is in a shutdown or standby state, detecting whether the tilt angle of the personal care device relative to a horizontal plane changes.

[0102] Specifically, when the personal care device is in the off or standby state, in order to reduce power consumption during this state, only the tilt angle detection module 340 with lower power consumption, such as a gravity sensor or tilt sensor, can be used to detect the tilt angle of the personal care device relative to the horizontal plane, while the other detection modules 320 are stopped. When the personal care device is picked up by the user, the tilt angle of the personal care device relative to the horizontal plane will change, and the tilt angle of the personal care device relative to the horizontal plane detected by the tilt angle detection module 340 will also change accordingly.

[0103] For example, when the personal care device is in the off or standby state, the tilt angle of the personal care device relative to the horizontal plane may be 0 degrees, that is, the personal care device may be placed horizontally on the horizontal plane. When the personal care device is picked up by the user, that is, the user may use the personal care device, such as Figure 3B The tilt angle 2 shown may change from 0 degrees to 60 degrees, and the tilt angle of the personal care device relative to the horizontal plane detected by the tilt angle detection module 340 will change from 0 degrees to 60 degrees, that is, change.

[0104] Step 402: If the tilt angle changes, control the personal care device to turn on.

[0105] Specifically, when the personal care device is in the off or standby state, if the tilt angle of the personal care device relative to the horizontal plane detected by the tilt angle detection module 340 changes, it can be considered that the user may use the personal care device, and the controller 330 can control the personal care device to turn on.

[0106] Step 403: Use M detection modules to detect valid signals.

[0107] Specifically, step 403 is consistent with step 201 and will not be repeated here.

[0108] Step 404: Obtain a detection result based on whether each of the M detection modules detects the valid signal.

[0109] Specifically, step 404 is consistent with step 202 and will not be repeated here.

[0110] Step 405: Control the personal care device to execute a target event corresponding to the detection result based on the detection result.

[0111] Specifically, step 405 is consistent with step 203 and will not be repeated here.

[0112] In an embodiment of the present application, when the personal care device is in the off or standby state, the inclination angle of the personal care device relative to the horizontal plane can be detected only by the inclination angle detection module with lower power consumption. When it is judged based on the inclination angle that the user may use the personal care device, each detection module 320 is turned on for detection. It is not necessary for each detection module 320 to be in working state at all times, which reduces the power consumption of the personal care device when it is in the off or standby state and improves the battery life of the personal care device.

[0113] Please refer to Figure 5A , Figure 5A The following is a schematic diagram showing the structure of another handle provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 5A As shown, the handle may include: a housing 510, a first detection module 520, a second detection module 530, and a controller 540.

[0114] The housing 510 has a receiving cavity 511 .

[0115] The housing 510 has a first detection area 521 corresponding to the first detection module 520, and a valid signal is obtained through the first detection area 521. The housing 510 has a second detection area 531 corresponding to the second detection module 530, and a valid signal is obtained through the second detection area 531. The first detection area 521 and the second detection area 531 of the housing 510 are both seamless structures.

[0116] The first detection module 520 and the second detection module 530 are both located in the accommodating cavity 111. The first detection module 520 and the second detection module 530 each generate a valid signal when detecting that the distance between the object and the detection module meets the preset condition. The above-mentioned N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2. The above-mentioned preset condition can be that the detection module detects that the distance between the object and the detection module is less than or equal to the first preset distance threshold, or it can be the distance between the detection module and the detection area corresponding to the outer surface of the housing 110, for example, when a person's hand touches the first detection area 521, the distance between the hand and the first detection module 520, which is not specifically limited in this application. The above-mentioned first preset distance threshold can be 5mm, 10mm, etc., which is not specifically limited in this application.

[0117] Specifically, the first detection area 521 is located on the outer peripheral surface of the housing 510 for hand-holding, and the second detection area 531 is located on the bottom surface 512 of the housing 510;

[0118] The controller 540 is connected to the first detection module 520 and the second detection module 530 , and is used to control the personal care device to perform corresponding operations according to whether the first detection module 520 and the second detection module 530 have valid signals detected.

[0119] Exemplarily, the handle satisfies at least one of the following control modes:

[0120] When the first detection module 520 has a valid signal and the second detection module 530 has no valid signal, the controller 540 controls the personal care device to perform a first operation, such as adjusting operating parameters, ie, a working mode or a working gear.

[0121] When the first detection module 520 has no valid signal and the second detection module 530 has a valid signal, the controller 540 controls the personal care device to perform a second operation, such as controlling the personal care device to shut down or enter standby mode.

[0122] When both the first detection module 520 and the second detection module 530 generate valid signals, the controller 540 controls the personal care device to perform a third operation, such as controlling the personal care device to shut down or enter standby mode.

[0123] In the embodiment of the present application, there may be one or more first detection modules 520. Accordingly, each first detection module 520 corresponds to a first detection zone 511. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the number of first detection modules 520.

[0124] Next, combine Figure 5A , introduces another control method of a personal care device provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. Figure 5AIt can be seen that the handle includes a shell 510 with a first detection module 520 and a second detection module 530 disposed inside. The detection position of the first detection module 520 is on the peripheral surface of the handle 510 for gripping, and the detection position of the second detection module 530 is on the bottom surface of the handle 510.

[0125] In one embodiment, to reduce power consumption when the personal care device is powered off or in standby mode, when M = 1, only the second detection module 530 may be enabled to detect valid signals. Specifically, when the personal care device is powered off or in standby mode, the first detection module 520 ceases detection, and only the second detection module 530 detects valid signals. A detection result is determined based on whether the second detection module 530 detects the valid signal. The valid signal is generated when the second detection module 530 detects an object whose distance from the second detection module 530 meets a preset condition. The preset condition may be that the distance between the second detection module 530 and the object is less than or equal to a first preset distance threshold, or the distance between the second detection module 530 and a second detection zone 531 corresponding to the outer surface of the housing 510, such as the distance between a hand and the second detection module 530 when the hand touches the second detection zone 531. This is not specifically limited in this application. The first preset distance threshold may be 5 mm, 10 mm, etc., and is not specifically limited in this application.

[0126] If the second detection module 530 does not detect a valid signal, it can be considered that the personal care device has been picked up by the user from the upright placement surface, i.e., the bottom surface of the handle, that is, the user may use the personal care device, and the controller 540 can control the personal care device to turn on.

[0127] In an embodiment of the present application, after the personal care device is turned off or in standby mode, the first detection module stops detecting, and only the second detection module detects valid signals. When the second detection module does not detect a valid signal, the user may use the above-mentioned personal care device, and then the above-mentioned personal care device is controlled to be turned on, and then the first detection module is turned on for detection. It is not necessary for each detection module to be in working state at all times, which reduces the power consumption of the personal care device when it is turned off or in standby state, and improves the battery life of the personal care device.

[0128] In another embodiment, the detection position is located at Figure 5A When the number of the first detection modules 520 on the circumference of the handle shown is one or more, the above M=N, and all the first detection modules 520 and the second detection modules 530 can be used to detect valid signals, and the detection results can be obtained based on whether all the first detection modules 520 and the second detection modules 530 detect the above valid signals.

[0129] Optionally, when the personal care device is in the off or standby state, if the second detection module 530 does not detect a valid signal, and at least one first detection module 520 detects a valid signal for a first duration that is less than or equal to a first preset duration, it can be considered that the personal care device has been picked up by the user from the upright placement surface, i.e., the bottom surface of the handle, indicating that the user may use the personal care device. The controller 540 can then control the personal care device to turn on. The first preset duration can be 3 seconds, 2 seconds, etc., and this application does not limit this.

[0130] For example, when the personal care device is in the off or standby state and the second detection module 530 does not detect a valid signal, and at least one first detection module 520 detects a valid signal for a first duration of less than or equal to 3 seconds, the personal care device may be controlled to power on. If all of the first detection modules 520 detect a valid signal for a first duration of greater than 3 seconds, the personal care device may be placed horizontally on a table, and in this case, the personal care device will not be controlled to power on.

[0131] Optionally, when the personal care device is powered on, if the first detection module 520 detects a valid signal for a first duration, and the second detection module 530 detects a valid signal for a second duration that is greater than a second preset duration, the personal care device may be considered to have been placed in the box, meaning the user may no longer use the device. The controller 540 may then control the personal care device to shut down or enter standby mode based on the detection results. The second preset duration may be 3 seconds, 2 seconds, or the like, and is not limited in this application.

[0132] Optionally, in order to avoid adjusting operating parameters, i.e., adjusting the working gear or mode, etc., due to accidental touch when using the personal care device, when the personal care device is in the power-on state, if the second detection module 530 does not detect a valid signal, and a first detection module 520 detects a first duration corresponding to a valid signal that is greater than a third preset duration, it can be considered that the user may use the above-mentioned personal care device, and the user approaches or touches (long presses) the first detection module 520 for a long time, then the controller 540 activates the adjustment of the operating parameters of the personal care device, i.e., activates the adjustment of the working mode or working gear, etc. of the personal care device. The above-mentioned third preset duration can be 5s, 6s, etc., and this application does not limit this.

[0133] Optionally, in addition to long pressing the first detection module 520 as described above, the user can also activate the adjustment of the operating parameters of the personal care device by short pressing the second detection module 530. That is, when the personal care device is in the on state, if the first detection module 520 does not detect a valid signal, and the second detection module 530 detects a valid signal and the second duration corresponding to the second detection module 530 is less than a fourth preset duration, it can be considered that the user may use the personal care device, and the user approaches or touches (short presses) the second detection module 530 for a short time, then the controller 540 activates the adjustment of the operating parameters of the personal care device, that is, activates the adjustment of the working mode or working gear of the personal care device. The fourth preset duration can be 1s, 2s, etc., and this application does not limit this.

[0134] Optionally, after activating the adjustment operating parameters of the personal care device, if the second detection module 530 does not detect a valid signal, that is, it is considered that the handle has been picked up, and the first detection module 520 detects that the first duration corresponding to the valid signal is less than or equal to the fifth preset duration, then the controller 540 can control the adjustment operating parameters of the personal care device according to the first duration corresponding to the valid signal, that is, control the personal care device to execute the target event. The above-mentioned fifth preset duration can be 1s, 2s, etc., and this application does not limit this. The above-mentioned target events include shutdown, standby, adjustment of operating parameters, etc. The above-mentioned adjustment of operating parameters includes adjusting the working mode, adjusting the working gear, etc.

[0135] For example, after activating the adjustment operating parameters of the personal care device, if the second detection module 530 does not detect a valid signal, and the first detection module 520 detects that the first time length corresponding to the valid signal is 4s, which is less than the fifth preset time length 5s, the user may have short-pressed the first detection module 520, that is, the user may want to switch the working mode or working gear, then the controller 540 can control the personal care device to switch the working mode or working gear, etc.

[0136] Furthermore, after activating the adjusted operating parameters of the personal care device, if the second detection module 530 does not detect a valid signal, and the first detection module 520 detects that the first duration corresponding to the valid signal is greater than the fifth preset duration, the controller 540 can control the personal care device to shut down or standby according to the first duration corresponding to the valid signal.

[0137] For example, after activating the adjusted operating parameters of the personal care device, if the second detection module 530 does not detect a valid signal, and the first detection module 520 detects that the first time length corresponding to the valid signal is 8s, which is greater than the fifth preset time length of 5s, the user may have long pressed the first detection module 520, that is, the user may no longer use the personal care device and wants to control it to shut down or standby, then the controller 540 can control the personal care device to shut down or standby.

[0138] In another embodiment, the detection position is located at Figure 5A The number of the first detection modules 520 on the circumference of the handle shown is 3, that is, when the first detection module 520 includes the first detection module, the third detection module and the fourth detection module, the above M=N, and the first detection module, the second detection module, the third detection module and the fourth detection module can be used to detect the valid signal, and the detection result is obtained according to whether the first detection module, the second detection module, the third detection module and the fourth detection module detect the above valid signal. For details, please refer to Figure 5B , which exemplarily shows a structural diagram of another handle provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 5B As shown, the handle may include: a housing 510, a first detection module 520a, a third detection module 520b, a fourth detection module 520c, a second detection module 530, and a controller 540. Among them:

[0139] The housing 510 has a receiving cavity 511 .

[0140] The housing 510 has a first detection zone 521a corresponding to the first detection module 520a, and a valid signal is obtained through the first detection zone 521a. The housing 510 has a third detection zone 521b corresponding to the third detection module 520b, and a valid signal is obtained through the third detection zone 521b. The housing 510 has a fourth detection zone 521c corresponding to the fourth detection module 520c, and a valid signal is obtained through the fourth detection zone 521c. The housing 510 has a second detection zone 531 corresponding to the second detection module 530, and a valid signal is obtained through the second detection zone 531. The first detection zone 521a, third detection zone 521b, fourth detection zone 521c, and second detection zone 531 of the housing 510 are all seamless structures.

[0141] Specifically, the first detection area 521a, the third detection area 521b and the fourth detection area 521c are all located on the outer peripheral surface of the housing 510 for handholding; the second detection area 531 is located on the bottom surface 512 of the housing 510; the first detection area 521a is closer to the top surface 513 of the housing 510 than the bottom surface 512 of the housing 510; the distance between the first detection area 521a and the top surface 513 is not greater than the first distance; the third detection area 521b is closer to the top surface 513 of the housing 510 than the top surface 513 of the housing 510 The bottom surface 512 of the housing 510; the distance between the third detection area 521b and the bottom surface 512 is no greater than the second distance; the distance between the first detection area 521a and the third detection area 521b is greater than or equal to the third distance; the fourth detection area 521c is located between the first detection area 521a and the third detection area 521b; the first detection area 521a, the third detection area 521b, and the fourth detection area 521c are located on a straight line extending in the direction of the housing 510. The first distance may be 50 mm, 40 mm, etc., the second distance may be 30 mm, 20 mm, etc., and the third distance may be 100 mm, 90 mm, etc., and this application does not limit these.

[0142] The controller 540 controls the personal care device to perform corresponding operations according to whether there are valid signals detected by the first detection module 520a, the second detection module 530, the third detection module 520b and the fourth detection module 520c.

[0143] Exemplarily, the handle satisfies at least one of the following control modes:

[0144] When one or two of the first detection module 520a, the third detection module 520b and the fourth detection module 520c have valid signals and the second detection module 530 has no valid signal, it can be considered that the personal care device has been picked up, and the controller 540 controls the personal care device to perform a first operation, such as controlling the personal care device to start up or adjust operating parameters.

[0145] When the first detection module 520a, the third detection module 520b and the fourth detection module 520c all have valid signals, and the second detection module 530 has no valid signal, it can be considered that the personal care device may be placed horizontally on the desktop and the user may not use the personal care device. The controller 540 controls the personal care device to perform a second operation, such as controlling the personal care device to shut down or standby.

[0146] When the first detection module 520a, the second detection module 530, the third detection module 520b and the fourth detection module 520c all have valid signals, it can be considered that the personal care device has been set in the box, and the controller 540 controls the personal care device to perform a third operation, such as shutdown or standby.

[0147] Next, combine Figure 5B , introduces another control method of a personal care device provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. Figure 5B It can be seen that the handle includes a shell 510 internally provided with a first detection module 520a, a third detection module 520b, a fourth detection module 520c, and a second detection module 530. The first detection module 520a, the third detection module 520b, the fourth detection module 520c, and the second detection module 530 can be used simultaneously to detect valid signals, and the detection results can be obtained based on whether the first detection module 520a, the third detection module 520b, the fourth detection module 520c, and the second detection module 530 detect the above-mentioned valid signals and the corresponding time length when the valid signals are detected.

[0148] Optionally, when the personal care device is in the off or standby state, if one or two of the first detection module 520a, the third detection module 520b and the fourth detection module 520c detect a valid signal, and the second detection module 530 does not detect a valid signal, it can be considered that the personal care device has been held by hand, and the personal care device is controlled to turn on.

[0149] Optionally, when the personal care device is in the power-on state, if the first detection module 520a has a valid signal, one or two of the third detection module 520b and the fourth detection module 520c detect a valid signal, and the second detection module 530 does not detect a valid signal, it can be considered that the personal care device has been held by hand and the first detection module 520a has been triggered. The personal care device can be controlled to adjust the operating parameters according to the first duration of the valid signal of the first detection module 520a, that is, to adjust the working mode or working gear, etc.

[0150] Optionally, when the personal care device is powered on, if the first detection module 520a, the second detection module 530, the third detection module 520b, and the fourth detection module 520c all detect valid signals, or if the second detection module 530 detects a valid signal and the second duration corresponding to the second detection module 530 is greater than a second preset duration, it may be considered that the personal care device may be placed in a container or upright, and the user may not use the personal care device. The personal care device is then controlled to shut down or enter standby mode. The second preset duration may be 3 seconds, 2 seconds, etc., and this application does not limit this.

[0151] Optionally, when the personal care device is in the power-on state, if the first detection module 520a, the third detection module 520b and the fourth detection module 520c all detect the valid signal, and the second detection module 530 does not detect a valid signal, it can be considered that the personal care device may be placed horizontally on the desktop and the user may not use the personal care device. In this case, the personal care device can be controlled to shut down or standby, etc.

[0152] In another embodiment, the detection position is located at Figure 5A The number of the first detection modules 520 on the circumference of the handle shown is 4, that is, when the first detection module 520 includes the first detection module, the third detection module, the fourth detection module and the fifth detection module, the above M=N, and the first detection module, the second detection module, the third detection module, the fourth detection module and the fifth detection module can be used to detect the valid signal, and the detection result is obtained according to whether the first detection module, the second detection module, the third detection module, the fourth detection module and the fifth detection module detect the above valid signal. For details, please refer to Figure 5C , which exemplarily shows a structural diagram of another handle provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 5C As shown, the handle may include: a housing 510, a first detection module 520a, a third detection module 520b, a fourth detection module 520c, a fifth detection module 520d, a second detection module 530, and a controller 540. Among them:

[0153] The housing 510 has a receiving cavity 511 .

[0154] The housing 510 has a first detection zone 521a corresponding to the first detection module 520a, and a valid signal is obtained through the first detection zone 521a. The housing 510 has a third detection zone 521b corresponding to the third detection module 520b, and a valid signal is obtained through the third detection zone 521b. The housing 510 has a fourth detection zone 521c corresponding to the fourth detection module 520c, and a valid signal is obtained through the fourth detection zone 521c. The housing 510 has a fifth detection zone 521d corresponding to the fifth detection module 520d, and a valid signal is obtained through the fifth detection zone 521d. The housing 510 has a second detection zone 531 corresponding to the second detection module 530, and a valid signal is obtained through the second detection zone 531. The first detection zone 521a, third detection zone 521b, fourth detection zone 521c, fifth detection zone 521d, and second detection zone 531 of the housing 510 are all seamless structures.

[0155] Specifically, the first detection area 521a, the third detection area 521b, the fourth detection area 521c and the fifth detection area 521d are all located on the outer peripheral surface of the housing 510 for handholding; the second detection area 531 is located on the bottom surface 512 of the housing 510; the first detection area 521a is closer to the top surface 513 of the housing 510 than the bottom surface 512 of the housing 510; the distance between the first detection area 521a and the top surface 513 is not greater than the first distance; the third detection area 521b and the fifth detection area 521d are closer to the top surface 513 of the housing 510 than the top surface 512 of the housing 510. 13 is closer to the bottom surface 512 of the housing 510; the distance between the third detection area 521b and the fifth detection area 521d and the bottom surface 512 is no greater than the second distance; the distance between the first detection area 521a and the third detection area 521b is greater than or equal to the third distance; the fourth detection area 521c is located between the first detection area 521a and the third detection area 521b; the first detection area 521a, the third detection area 521b, and the fourth detection area 521c are located on a straight line in the extension direction of the housing 510. The first distance can be 50 mm, 40 mm, etc., the second distance can be 30 mm, 20 mm, etc., and the third distance can be 100 mm, 90 mm, etc., and this application does not impose any specific restrictions on this. This application does not impose any specific restrictions on this. To ensure that when a hand grips the handle, at least one of the third detection zone 521b and the fifth detection zone 521d can be grasped. That is, when the first detection module 520a receives a valid signal, one of the third detection module 520b and the fifth detection module 520d can also receive a valid signal, thereby reducing misjudgments. The angle between the third detection zone 521b and the fifth detection zone 521d is within a first range. The first range may be [90°, 180°], [110°, 180°], etc., and is not limited in this application.

[0156] The controller 540 controls the personal care device to perform corresponding operations according to whether there are valid signals detected by the first detection module 520a, the second detection module 530, the third detection module 520b, the fourth detection module 520c and the fifth detection module 520d.

[0157] Exemplarily, the handle satisfies at least one of the following control modes:

[0158] When one, two, or three of the first detection module 520a, the third detection module 520b, the fourth detection module 520c, and the fifth detection module 520d have valid signals and the second detection module 530 has no valid signal, it can be considered that the personal care device has been picked up, and the controller 540 controls the personal care device to perform a first operation, such as controlling the personal care device to start up or adjust operating parameters.

[0159] When the first detection module 520a, the third detection module 520b, the fourth detection module 520c and the fifth detection module 520d all have valid signals and the second detection module 530 has no valid signal, it can be considered that the personal care device may be placed horizontally on the desktop and the user may not use the personal care device. The controller 540 then controls the personal care device to perform a second operation, such as controlling the personal care device to shut down or standby.

[0160] When the first detection module 520a, the second detection module 530, the third detection module 520b, the fourth detection module 520c and the fifth detection module 520d all have valid signals, it can be considered that the personal care device has been placed in the box, and the controller 540 controls the personal care device to perform a third operation, such as shutdown or standby.

[0161] Next, combine Figure 5C , introduces another control method of a personal care device provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. Figure 5C It can be seen that the handle includes a shell 510 internally provided with a first detection module 520a, a third detection module 520b, a fourth detection module 520c, and a second detection module 530. The first detection module 520a, the third detection module 520b, the fourth detection module 520c, the fifth detection module 520d, and the second detection module 530 can be used simultaneously to detect valid signals, and the detection results can be obtained based on whether the first detection module 520a, the third detection module 520b, the fourth detection module 520c, the fifth detection module 520d, and the second detection module 530 detect the above-mentioned valid signals and the corresponding time length when the valid signals are detected.

[0162] Optionally, when the personal care device is in the off or standby state, if one or both of the fourth detection module 520c and the fifth detection module 520d detect a valid signal, and the first detection module 520a, the third detection module 520b and the second detection module 530 do not detect a valid signal, it can be considered that the personal care device has been held by hand and the user may be about to use the personal care device, and the personal care device is controlled to turn on.

[0163] Optionally, when the personal care device is in the power-on state, if the first detection module 520a has a valid signal, one or two of the fourth detection module 520c and the fifth detection module 520d detect a valid signal, and the third detection module 520b and the second detection module 530 do not detect a valid signal, it can be considered that the personal care device has been held by hand and the first detection module 520a has been triggered. The personal care device can be controlled to adjust the operating parameters according to the first duration of the valid signal of the first detection module 520a, that is, to adjust the working mode or working gear, etc.

[0164] Optionally, when the personal care device is powered on, if the first detection module 520a, the second detection module 530, the third detection module 520b, the fourth detection module 520c, and the fifth detection module 520d all detect valid signals, or if the second detection module 530 detects a valid signal and the second duration corresponding to the second duration is greater than a second preset duration, it may be considered that the personal care device may be placed in a container or upright, and the user may not use the personal care device. The personal care device is then controlled to shut down or enter standby mode. The second preset duration may be 3 seconds, 2 seconds, etc., and this application does not limit this.

[0165] Optionally, when the personal care device is in the power-on state, if the first detection module 520a and the third detection module 520b both detect valid signals, one or two of the fourth detection module 520c and the fifth detection module 520d detect valid signals, and the second detection module 530 does not detect a valid signal, it can be considered that the personal care device may be placed horizontally on the desktop, and the user may not use the personal care device, then the personal care device can be controlled to shut down or standby, etc.

[0166] In an embodiment of the present application, a valid signal is detected by at least one first detection module and a second detection module, and the personal care device is controlled to perform corresponding operations based on the presence or absence of a valid signal and the duration of the valid signal detected by the at least one first detection module and the second detection module, thereby avoiding abnormal startup or shutdown or adjustment of operating parameters caused by false signal detection, etc., which can not only achieve precise control of the functions of the personal care device through a seamless structure and effectively prevent misoperation, but also make the use of the personal care device more hygienic.

[0167] Please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 The following is a schematic diagram showing the structure of another handle provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 6 As shown, when N=2, the handle includes: a housing 610, a first detection module 620, a third detection module 630, and a controller 640. Among them:

[0168] The housing 610 has a receiving cavity 611;

[0169] The housing 610 has a first detection area 621 corresponding to the first detection module 620, and a valid signal is obtained through the first detection area 621. The housing 610 has a third detection area 631 corresponding to the third detection module 630, and a valid signal is obtained through the third detection area 631. The first detection area 621 and the third detection area 631 of the housing 610 are both seamless structures.

[0170] The first detection module 620 and the third detection module 630 are both located in the accommodating cavity 611 . The first detection module 620 and the third detection module 630 each generate a valid signal when detecting that the distance between the object and the detection module meets a preset condition.

[0171] Specifically, the first detection area 621 and the third detection area 631 are both located on the outer peripheral surface of the housing 610 for handholding. The first detection area 621 and the third detection area 631, i.e., the detection positions, are spaced apart in the extending direction of the handle. The detection position of the first detection module 620, i.e., the first detection area 621, is closer to the top surface 613 of the handle than the detection position of the third detection module 630, i.e., the third detection area 631. The distance between the detection position of the first detection module 620 and the top surface 613 of the handle is shorter than the distance between the third detection module 630 and the bottom surface 612 of the handle.

[0172] The controller 640 is connected to the first detection module 620 and the third detection module 630 and is used to control the personal care device to perform corresponding operations according to whether the first detection module 620 and the third detection module 630 detect valid signals.

[0173] Next, combine Figure 6 , introduces the control method of the personal care device provided by the exemplary embodiment of the present application. Figure 6 It can be seen that when N=2, the handle includes a shell with a first detection module and a third detection module arranged inside, and the distance between the detection position of the first detection module and the top surface of the handle is smaller than the distance between the third detection module and the bottom surface of the handle.

[0174] In another embodiment, M=N, that is, the first detection module 620 and the third detection module 630 can be used to detect the valid signal, and the detection result can be obtained based on whether the first detection module 620 and the third detection module 630 detect the above-mentioned valid signal, and the corresponding duration of the valid signal when the valid signal is detected.

[0175] Optionally, when the personal care device is powered on and the duration of valid signals detected by both the first detection module 620 and the third detection module 630 exceeds a first preset duration, it can be assumed that the personal care device has been placed on a table or in a box and that the user is unlikely to use it anymore. The personal care device can then be controlled to shut down or enter standby mode. The first preset duration can be 8 seconds, 10 seconds, etc., and this application does not limit this.

[0176] Optionally, when the personal care device is in the off or standby state, and one of the first detection module 620 and the third detection module 630 detects a valid signal, it can be considered that the personal care device has been picked up and the user may use the personal care device, and the personal care device is controlled to turn on.

[0177] Optionally, when the personal care device is powered on and the duration corresponding to the valid signal detected by the third detection module 630 is greater than the second preset duration, and the duration corresponding to the valid signal detected by the first detection module 620 is less than the third preset duration, it can be assumed that the user has grasped the personal care device and that a finger has triggered the first detection module. The personal care device can then be controlled to adjust operating parameters, such as adjusting the operating mode or gear. The second preset duration can be 5 seconds, 6 seconds, etc., and the third preset duration can be 3 seconds, 4 seconds, etc., and this application does not limit this.

[0178] In the embodiment of the present application, only the first detection module and the third detection module are used to detect the valid signal, and the personal care device is controlled to perform corresponding operations based on the presence or absence of the valid signal and the duration of the valid signal detected by the first detection module and the third detection module. The number of detection modules is small, which has little impact on the volume of the personal care device. It can also avoid abnormal startup or shutdown or adjustment of operating parameters caused by false signal detection, and realize precise control of the functions of the personal care device through a seamless structure, effectively prevent misoperation, and make the use of the personal care device more hygienic.

[0179] Please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 7 The following is a schematic diagram showing the structure of another handle provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 7 As shown, when N=3, the handle includes: a housing 710, a first detection module 720, a third detection module 730, a fourth detection module 740, and a controller 750. Among them:

[0180] The housing 710 has a receiving cavity 711 .

[0181] The housing 710 has a first detection area 721 corresponding to the first detection module 720, and a valid signal is obtained through the first detection area 721. The housing 710 has a third detection area 731 corresponding to the third detection module 730, and a valid signal is obtained through the third detection area 731. The housing 710 has a fourth detection area 741 corresponding to the fourth detection module 740, and a valid signal is obtained through the fourth detection area 741. The first detection area 721, the third detection area 731, and the fourth detection area 741 of the housing 710 are all seamless structures.

[0182] The first detection module 720 , the third detection module 730 , and the fourth detection module 740 are all located in the accommodating cavity 711 . The first detection module 720 , the third detection module 730 , and the fourth detection module 740 each generate a valid signal when detecting that the distance between the object and the detection module meets a preset condition.

[0183] Specifically, the first detection zone 721, the third detection zone 731, and the fourth detection zone 741 are all located on the outer peripheral surface of the housing 710 for handholding. The first detection zone 721, the third detection zone 731, and the fourth detection zone 741 are spaced apart in the extending direction of the handle. The first detection zone 721 is closer to the top surface 713 of the housing 710 than to the bottom surface 712 of the housing 710; the fourth detection zone 741 is closer to the bottom surface 712 of the housing 710 than to the top surface 713 of the housing 710; and the third detection zone 731 is located between the first detection zone 721 and the fourth detection zone 741. The controller 750 controls the personal care device to perform corresponding operations based on the presence or absence of valid signals detected by the first detection module 720, the third detection module 730, and the fourth detection module 740.

[0184] Exemplarily, the handle satisfies at least one of the following control modes:

[0185] When there is no valid signal from the first detection module 720 and one or both of the third detection module 730 and the fourth detection module 740 have valid signals, it can be considered that the personal care device has been held by the user's hand and the user may use the personal care device. The controller 750 controls the personal care device to perform a first operation, such as turning on the device.

[0186] When there is no valid signal from the fourth detection module 740, but there are valid signals from the first detection module 720 and the third detection module 730, it can be considered that the personal care device has been held by the user's hand, and the user may have triggered the first detection module 720. Then the controller 750 controls the personal care device to perform the second operation, such as adjusting the operating parameters, that is, adjusting the working module or working gear, etc.

[0187] If the first detection module 720, the third detection module 730 and the fourth detection module 740 all have valid signals, it can be considered that the personal care device has been placed horizontally on the table or in a box, that is, the user may no longer continue to use the personal care device. The controller 750 can control the personal care device to perform a third operation, such as controlling the personal care device to shut down or standby.

[0188] Next, combine Figure 7 , introduces another control method of a personal care device provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. Figure 7It can be seen that when N = 3, the handle includes a housing internally provided with a first detection module, a third detection module, and a fourth detection module. The detection positions of the first detection module, the third detection module, and the fourth detection module are all located on the circumferential surface of the handle for gripping, and the detection positions of the first detection module, the third detection module, and the fourth detection module are arranged in a straight line from the top surface to the bottom surface of the handle. The sum of the distance between the detection position of the first detection module and the top of the handle and the distance between the detection position of the fourth detection module and the bottom of the handle is less than the distance between the detection positions of the first detection module and the fourth detection module.

[0189] In another embodiment, M=N=3, and the first detection module 720, the third detection module 730, and the fourth detection module 740 can be used to detect the valid signal, and the detection result can be obtained based on whether the first detection module 720, the third detection module 730, and the fourth detection module 740 detect the above-mentioned valid signal, and the corresponding duration of the valid signal when the valid signal is detected.

[0190] Optionally, when the personal care device is in the off or standby state, if one or two detection modules of the first detection module 720, the third detection module 730 and the fourth detection module 740 detect a valid signal, it can be considered that the personal care device has been picked up and the user may use the personal care device, and the personal care device can be controlled to turn on.

[0191] Optionally, when the personal care device is in the on state, if the first detection module 720, the third detection module 730 and the fourth detection module 740 all detect no valid signals or all detect valid signals, it can be considered that the personal care device has been placed upright or in a box, and the user may no longer use the personal care device, so the personal care device can be controlled to shut down or standby.

[0192] Optionally, when the personal care device is in the power-on state, the fourth detection module 740 has no valid signal, and the first detection module 720 and the third detection module 730 have valid signals, it can be considered that the personal care device has been held by the user's hand, and the user may have triggered the first detection module 720. The controller 750 can then control the personal care device to adjust the operating parameters, that is, adjust the working module or working gear, etc., according to the duration of time the first detection module 720 detects the valid signal.

[0193] In an embodiment of the present application, a valid signal is detected by the first detection module, the third detection module and the fourth detection module, and the personal care device is controlled to perform corresponding operations based on the presence or absence of the valid signal and the duration of the valid signal detected by the above-mentioned first detection module, the third detection module and the fourth detection module. This can more effectively avoid abnormal startup or shutdown or adjustment of operating parameters caused by false signal detection, realize precise control of the functions of the personal care device through a seamless structure, effectively prevent misoperation, and make the use of the personal care device more hygienic.

[0194] Please refer to Figure 8A , Figure 8A The following is a schematic diagram showing the structure of another handle provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 8A As shown, when N=3, the handle includes: a housing 810, a first detection module 820, a third detection module 830, a fifth detection module 840, and a controller 850. Among them:

[0195] The housing 810 has a receiving cavity 811 .

[0196] The housing 810 has a first detection area 821 corresponding to the first detection module 820, and a valid signal is obtained through the first detection area 821. The housing 810 has a third detection area 831 corresponding to the third detection module 830, and a valid signal is obtained through the third detection area 831. The housing 810 has a fifth detection area 841 corresponding to the fifth detection module 840, and a valid signal is obtained through the fifth detection area 841. The first detection area 821, the third detection area 831, and the fifth detection area 841 of the housing 810 are all seamless structures.

[0197] Specifically, the first detection area 821, the third detection area 831, and the fifth detection area 841 are all located on the outer peripheral surface of the housing 810 for handholding. The first detection area 821 is closer to the top surface 813 of the housing 810 than the bottom surface 812 of the housing 810. The distance between the first detection area 821 and the top surface 813 is not greater than the first distance. The distance between the third detection area 831 and the fifth detection area 841 and the top surface 813 is greater than or equal to the fourth distance, and the distance between the third detection area 831 and the fifth detection area 841 and the bottom surface 812 is greater than or equal to the fifth distance; the sum of the above-mentioned fourth distance and the above-mentioned fifth distance is less than or equal to the length of the housing 810; the above-mentioned first distance can be 50mm, 60mm, etc., the above-mentioned fourth distance can be 70mm, 80mm, etc., and the above-mentioned fifth distance can be 30mm, 40mm, etc., and this application does not make specific restrictions on this. Figure 8BAs shown (the direction around the cross section of the handle, i.e., the circumferential direction), to ensure that when the hand grasps the handle, at least one of the third detection module 830 and the fifth detection module 840 can be grasped, that is, when the first detection module 820 has a valid signal, it can also ensure that one of the third detection module 830 and the fifth detection module 840 also has a valid signal, thereby reducing misjudgment, the angle 2 between the third detection area 831 and the fifth detection area 841 is within a first range. The above-mentioned first range can be [90°, 180°], [110°, 180°], etc., and this application is not limited to this.

[0198] The controller 850 controls the personal care device to perform corresponding operations according to whether there are valid signals detected by the first detection module 820 , the third detection module 830 , and the fifth detection module 840 .

[0199] Exemplarily, the handle satisfies at least one of the following control modes:

[0200] When the first detection module 820 and the fifth detection module 840 have valid signals and the third detection module 830 has no valid signal, it can be considered that the personal care device has been picked up and the user may have triggered the first detection module 820. The controller 850 then controls the personal care device to perform a first operation, such as adjusting operating parameters.

[0201] When there is no valid signal from the first detection module 820 and one or both of the third detection module 830 and the fifth detection module 840 have valid signals, it can be considered that the personal care device has been picked up and the user may use the personal care device. The controller 850 can then control the personal care device to perform a second operation, such as turning it on.

[0202] If the first detection module 820, the third detection module 830 and the fifth detection module 840 all have valid signals or no valid signals, it can be considered that the personal care device has been placed in a box or upright in a container, and the user may not continue to use the personal care device. The controller 850 can control the personal care device to perform a fourth operation, such as shutting down or standing by.

[0205] Optionally, when the personal care device is in the power-on state, if the first detection module 820 and the fifth detection module 840 both detect valid signals, and the third detection module 830 does not detect a valid signal, it can be considered that the personal care device has been picked up, and the user may have triggered the first detection module 820. The personal care device is then controlled to execute the target event according to the first time length corresponding to the valid signal detected by the first detection module 820, such as adjusting the operating parameters.

The controller 850 can then control the personal care device to shut down or enter standby mode. The sixth preset duration can be 10 seconds, 11 seconds, etc., and this application does not limit this.

[0208] Optionally, when the personal care device is in the on state, if the first detection module 820, the third detection module 830 and the fifth detection module 840 do not detect a valid signal, it can be considered that the personal care device has been placed upright and the user may not continue to use the personal care device. The controller 850 can control the personal care device to shut down or standby.

[0209] Optionally, when the personal care device is in the off or standby state, if the first detection module 820 does not detect a valid signal, and one or both of the third detection module 830 and the fifth detection module 840 detect a valid signal, it can be considered that the personal care device has been picked up and the user may use the personal care device, then the controller 850 can control the personal care device to turn on.
