DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] It should be noted that the following detailed description is exemplary in nature and is intended to provide further description of the application. Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs.

[0033] It is also important to note that the use of the term "or" in the context of the present application is to be interpreted as inclusive or, meaning one or the other and / or any combination thereof, unless otherwise indicated. It is further noted that the claims can be drafted to exclude any elements claimed in any such combination or to exclude any such combination itself.

[0034] As Figures 1-11As shown, a desktop oral irrigator comprises a water tank 100, a main machine 200, a hose 300, a handle 400 and a nozzle 500, the main machine 200 comprises a casing and a water pump 210, a circuit board 220 and a pressure switch device 230 located in the casing, a control panel is arranged on the casing of the main machine, the control panel is provided with a start button and a stop button, water is stored in the water tank, when used, water is pumped to the handle through the hose until the water is sprayed through the nozzle. The pressure switch device 230 comprises a water outlet connector 231 arranged at the water outlet end of the water pump and used to connect the hose, the water outlet connector 231 serves as a transition piece between the water pump and the hose and is provided with an interface used to connect the hose; a micro switch 232 is arranged beside the water outlet connector, the micro switch is welded on the circuit board, and a controller is arranged on the circuit board, the micro switch and the controller are electrically connected, and the signal output end of the controller is electrically connected with a motor in the water pump, so that the micro switch controls the water pump to stop through the controller; a touch assembly used to trigger the micro switch is arranged between the micro switch and the water outlet connector, the touch assembly comprises a top rod 233 and a diaphragm 234 capable of pushing the top rod outward by bulging when the water pressure in the water outlet connector increases; by increasing the pressure switch device between the hose and the water pump, when the valve on the handle is closed, the water pressure in the pipeline rises, a micro switch is pushed, and the water pump is immediately closed, so that the defects of the existing desktop oral irrigator are solved, the protection function is achieved, and the water pump, the gear and the water channel are protected to a certain extent.

[0035] In the embodiment, the touch assembly further comprises a fixing seat 235 used to press the edge part of the diaphragm around the water outlet connector, and a communication hole is arranged in the side part of the water outlet connector and communicates with the water channel in the water outlet connector; the diaphragm plays a sealing role, and when the pressure in the water outlet connector increases, the diaphragm can push the top rod outward by bulging, the top rod presses the micro switch, the micro switch obtains a signal to the controller, and the controller controls the water pump to stop.

[0036] In the embodiment, the fixing seat 235 is a hollow structure, the top rod passes through the middle of the fixing seat, one end of the top rod abuts against the micro switch, and the other end abuts against the diaphragm, a reset spring 236 is arranged in the fixing seat and used to push the top rod towards the diaphragm, and the reset spring is sleeved on the top rod.

[0037] The reset spring has three states: the original length of the spring, the length of the spring after assembly (the length when the pipeline is under small water pressure), and the length of the spring after compression (the length when the pipeline is under high pressure): when water is sprayed normally, the water pressure in the pipeline is small, and the spring is pre-pressed, so the diaphragm is not enough to push the top rod to trigger the micro switch.

[0038] Therefore, it is important to measure and calculate the spring parameters in the balanced state after the blockage:

[0039] If the membrane water contact diameter is 6mm, the water contact area is

[0040] ;

[0041] According to the test, the water pressure is The water pressure that can trigger the development, that is, the water pressure that triggers the switch is: ;

[0042] The water pressure on the action force of the ejector rod is ;

[0043] Hooke's law of elasticity indicates that within the elastic limit, the spring force f and the spring length x are proportional, that is, f=-kx, k is the elastic coefficient of the material, which is determined by the nature of the material, and the negative sign indicates that the spring force generated by the spring is opposite to the direction of its elongation (or compression).

[0044] Spring constant formula (unit: kgf / mm):

[0045] ;

[0046] Where d is the wire diameter, Dm is the spring diameter, N is the number of spring turns, and G is the rigidity modulus of the wire material. Because the oral irrigator is in a relatively humid environment, a stainless steel spring wire is selected, and G=7300.

[0047] We design d=0.5mm, the spring diameter Dm=3.5mm, and the spring turns=10

[0048] Then we can calculate

[0049] ;

[0050] The compression length of the spring ;

[0051] We design the spring compression length to be 7mm, so the total length of the spring is 9.3mm.

[0052] In the embodiment, the fixed seat 235 is fixedly connected to the water outlet connecting piece by a screw, and the membrane is provided with an annular part at one end facing the water outlet connecting piece. The outer side of the water outlet connecting piece is provided with an annular groove matched with the annular part of the membrane.
