[0007] The invention is further configured such that: the pressurizing mechanism includes a pressurizing pump disposed in the main housing, a first on / off solenoid valve disposed on the output end of the pressurizing pump, and a first controller for controlling the output air pressure of the pressurizing pump and controlling the on / off state of the first on / off solenoid valve, and the output air pressure of the pressurizing pump is between 2KPa and 3KPa.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that: the circulating stirring device includes a connecting box disposed in the main box and connected to the disinfection box, a pneumatic pump connected to the connecting box, and a second controller for controlling the start and stop of the pneumatic pump, wherein the cross-sectional area of ​​the connecting box is 1 / 2 of the cross-sectional area of ​​the disinfection box.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that: a partition is provided between the disinfection box and the connecting box, and a channel is provided between the disinfection box and the connecting box, the channel being the space between the partition and the bottom of the box.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that: the drainage system includes a drain pipe connected to the disinfection box and a second on / off solenoid valve disposed on the drain channel and used to open or close the drain channel.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that: a heating mechanism is provided in the main chamber and disposed at the bottom of the disinfection chamber, the heating mechanism comprising a plurality of heating groups, each heating group being evenly distributed at the bottom of the disinfection chamber.

[0012] The invention is further configured such that: the heating assembly consists of a heating element, a housing, and a power cord electrically connected to the heating element; the housing includes a cylindrical body, a handle, and a cylindrical plug; the heating element is installed inside the plug; and the power cord extends from the rear of the handle.

[0020] S3. Start the air pump to pressurize the connecting box. At this time, the air pressure in the connecting box is greater than the air pressure in the disinfection box, and the liquid level in the disinfection box rises. Then turn off the air pump, the air pressure in the connecting box returns to normal, and the liquid level in the disinfection box resets. Repeat the control of the air pump to make the disinfectant in the disinfection chamber ripple and continuously disinfect and clean the toothbrush. The cleaning time is between 3 and 5 minutes.

[0021] S4. Stop the air pump and start the pressurizing pump to pressurize the remaining gas space in the disinfection box. At this time, the liquid level in the connected box rises until it reaches the top. If the liquid level in the disinfection box no longer decreases, continue to pressurize the disinfection box. The pressurization level is between 2KPa and 3KPa. Then close the first on / off solenoid valve to maintain the pressure.

[0022] S5. After the pressure is maintained inside the disinfection box, the rotating device drives the toothbrush to rotate, which thoroughly cleans the toothbrush, and the rotation time is between 3 and 5 minutes.

[0023] S6. The rotating device stops driving the toothbrush to rotate and discharges the disinfectant solution;

[0024] S7. Complete the disinfection process.

[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, beneficial effects are achieved. After proper preparation, the heating unit enhances the cleaning effect.
