[0055] See also Figures 1 to 5 , a medical oral care cleaning device, comprising:

[0056] Shell 1;

[0057] A driving mechanism 2 is installed in the housing 1;

[0058] A clamping mechanism 3 connected to the driving mechanism 2 and used for clamping the buccal device 5;

[0059] The spraying mechanism 4 is connected to the driving mechanism 2 and is used to spray water to the mouthpiece 5;

[0060] The driving mechanism 2 drives the spraying mechanism 4 to move around the clamping mechanism 3 so that the spraying mechanism 4 sprays and rinses both sides of the mouthpiece 5 with water.

[0061] The driving mechanism 2 drives the spray mechanism 4 to move around the clamping mechanism 3, so that the spray mechanism 4 can spray water to the mouthpiece 5 on the clamping mechanism 3 from multiple angles, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the cleaning effect. Compared with manual cleaning, even if there is no targeted improvement on the blind spot position of the mouthpiece 5, the efficiency is improved and it can also play a partial role in the four corners.

[0062] Furthermore, the injection mechanism 4 includes:

[0063] The spray pipe 41 is connected to the driving mechanism 2 and has water spray holes arranged in a row along the length thereof to connect the inside and the outside;

[0064] A plurality of spray pipes 41 are provided in parallel with each other, and the plurality of spray pipes 41 are distributed equidistantly with the clamping mechanism 3 as the center.

[0065] The spray tube 41 is sealed at one end and connected to a water pipe at the other; the water pipe can be opened for use. Multiple spray tubes 41 are equidistantly spaced about the clamping mechanism 3, i.e., they are equidistant from the clamping mechanism 3 and arranged around the clamping mechanism 3. When the drive mechanism 2 drives the multiple spray tubes 41 to move around the clamping mechanism 3 and spray water, multiple sprays of water can be directed at the same location on the mouthpiece 5 of the clamping mechanism 3, improving both cleaning effectiveness and cleaning efficiency.

[0066] Furthermore, the driving mechanism 2 includes two sets of symmetrically arranged driving members 21;

[0067] The driving member 21 comprises:

[0068] The first gear 211 is rotatably mounted in the housing 1;

[0069] The second gear 212 is rotatably mounted in the housing 1;

[0070] The arc-shaped driving tube 213 is slidably mounted in the housing 1;

[0071] A driving motor 219, whose rotating shaft is coaxially connected to the second gear 212;

[0072] Among them, the two ends of the clamping mechanism 3 are respectively connected to the first gears 211 on both sides; the first gear 211 is meshed with the second gear 212 above it; the inner ring of the arc-shaped driving tube 213 is connected with a rack; the second gear 212 is meshed with the rack of the inner ring of the arc-shaped driving tube 213; the two ends of the injection tube 41 are respectively connected to the arc-shaped driving tube 213 on both sides.

[0073] The drive motor 219 can be mounted either outside or inside the housing 1. The first gear 211 can be rotatably mounted within the housing 1 by attaching a connecting rod to the first gear 211. A bearing is mounted on the outer surface of the connecting rod, and the outer ring of the bearing is connected to the inner wall of the hole in the housing 1. The second gear 212 is supported within the housing 1 by the motor's bearings. The rotating shaft of the drive motor 219 in this device is also supported by a hole through the housing 1, which is inserted into the hole. When the drive motor 219 drives the second gear 212 to rotate, the second gear 212 drives the first gear 211 and the arc-shaped drive tube 213 to move. The first gear 211 and the arc-shaped drive tube 213 rotate in opposite directions. This causes the clamping mechanism 3 connected to the first gear 211 and the spray tube 41 connected to the arc-shaped drive tube 213 to move in opposite directions. Water in the spray tube 41 is ejected from the spray hole. The water forms various angles with the mouthpiece 5 held by the clamping mechanism 3, thereby improving the degree of water flow in cleaning blind spots of the mouthpiece 5 and achieving a better cleaning effect. In addition, the rotation of both the clamping mechanism 3 and the spray tube 41 can double the cleaning speed (compared to a case where the clamping mechanism 3 is fixed and only the spray tube 41 moves around the clamping mechanism 3).

[0074] Furthermore, the two arc-shaped driving tubes 213 are connected to arc-shaped dovetail bars 214 on their sides facing away from each other; an arc-shaped dovetail groove 215 is provided on the inner wall of the shell 1 corresponding to the arc-shaped dovetail bars 214; the arc-shaped dovetail bars 214 and the arc-shaped dovetail groove 215 are slidably matched.

[0075] What is described here is the way in which the arc-shaped drive tube 213 cooperates with the shell 1; the arc-shaped dovetail bar 214 slides and fits in the arc-shaped dovetail groove 215, and the cross-section of the arc-shaped dovetail bar 214 is a trapezoid, which belongs to the existing technology (i.e. the cooperation between the dovetail block and the dovetail groove).

[0076] Furthermore, the driving member 21 further includes:

[0077] Steering motors 216, of which there are multiple ones, are installed outside the arc-shaped driving tube 213;

[0078] Steering gear 217; connected to the rotating shaft of the steering motor 216;

[0079] Among them, a plurality of driving holes are opened on the arc-shaped driving tube 213; the two ends of the injection tube 41 are coaxially connected with a clamping tube 218; the clamping tube 218 is inserted into the driving holes on both sides; the two ends of the injection tube 41 are respectively provided with a circumferential rack; the steering gear 217 is engaged with the rack on the same side of the injection tube 41.

[0080] The clamping pipe 218 and the drive hole can be clearance-fitted, and it is only necessary to ensure that most of the water enters the spray pipe 41 through the clamping pipe 218. In addition, the clamping pipe 218 and the drive hole are preferably dynamically sealed, and the existing rotary sealing method can be used. With the driving of the steering motor 216, the spray pipe 41 can rotate relative to the arc-shaped drive pipe 213. This causes the angle of the water spray hole relative to the clamping mechanism 3 to change. It should be noted that if the water spray pipe rotates around the mouthpiece 5 to spray water, that is, it moves in an arc trajectory with the mouthpiece 5 as the center of the circle; it only repeatedly sprays water on the surface of the mouthpiece 5. The water flow can be understood as being sprayed vertically toward the mouthpiece 5. However, the spray pipe 41 of this device can rotate, so it can be understood that the water flow is sprayed toward the mouthpiece 5 at an angle, which can clean many dead corners. In addition, the water flow on different spray pipes 41 is sprayed in different directions. Under the drive of the steering motor 216, the surface of the mouthpiece 5 can be cleaned back and forth, and the cleaning efficiency is higher. In addition, for the local part of the mouthpiece 5, reciprocating water spraying is easier to remove stains than continuous water spraying, just like using water to wash away stains on the ground in life. When the water pressure is not high, it is necessary to spray back and forth instead of keeping the water spraying all the time. It takes time for water to soak the stains. This time can be used to clean other parts first, thereby achieving more efficient cleaning.

[0081] Furthermore, the rows of water spray holes on the plurality of spray pipes 41 are inclined along the axial direction of the spray pipe 41 .

[0082] During the spraying process of the spray pipe 41 around the mouthpiece 5, the rows of water spray holes move around the mouthpiece 5. The rotatable spray pipe 41 solves the problem of cleaning dead angles in one direction; and the inclined arrangement of the water spray holes and the inclined directions of the water spray holes on the multiple spray pipes 41 can be different, which means that Figure 3 The water from the spray pipe can spray the mouthpiece 5 from left to right or from right to left, thereby increasing the dead corner cleaning capability of the device. In addition, the spray holes 42 on the two different spray pipes 41 can be staggered, such as Figure 5 The first spray pipe 41 and the second spray pipe 41. In this way, the sprayed water flow can face more blind spots, thereby improving the cleaning ability of the mouthpiece 5.

[0083] Furthermore, the clamping mechanism 3 includes a clamping rod 31, and both ends of the clamping rod 31 are respectively connected to the first gears 211 on both sides;

[0084] The middle of the clamping rod 31 is provided with two penetrating and symmetrically arranged clamping holes 311;

[0085] Each clamping hole 311 is provided with a set of single-side clamping members 32; the single-side clamping members 32 include:

[0086] A single-sided square rod 321, with both ends connected to opposite side walls of the clamping hole 311;

[0087] The slider 322 is slidably mounted on the single-sided square rod 321 through the opening;

[0088] A clip 323 is mounted on the slider 322;

[0089] The unilateral spring 324 is sleeved on the unilateral square rod 321, and its two ends are respectively connected to the slider 322 and the inner wall of the clamping hole 311;

[0090] The two unilateral springs 324 are located between the two sliders 322 .

[0091] It should be noted that the size of the mouthpiece 5 varies depending on the user, and the clamping mechanism 3 needs to ensure that the mouthpiece 5 is located in the middle of the entire device so that the water sprayed from the spray pipe 41 can clean it. This device places the two ends of the mouthpiece 5 on two sliders 322, and clamps the ends of the mouthpiece 5 with a clip 323. Under the action of a unilateral spring 324, the entire mouthpiece 5 is centered for easy cleaning. The clip 323 can be an elastic clip that can clamp objects in the prior art. A large number of specific details are described in the specification of the present invention. However, it can be understood that the embodiments of the present invention can be practiced without these specific details. In some instances, well-known methods, structures and techniques are not shown in detail so as not to obscure the understanding of this specification.

[0092] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some or all of the technical features therein. These modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention, and they should all be included in the scope of the claims and description of the present invention.
