Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of care technology, and in particular to a control method, device, equipment and storage medium for oral cleaning equipment. Background Art

[0002] Electric toothbrushes are usually equipped with buttons to control the start and stop of the toothbrush motor. However, because the environment in which toothbrushes are used is humid, water can easily flow from the gaps between the buttons to the button circuit board, causing the buttons to short-circuit. This will cause the button control to fail and the electric toothbrush cannot be used normally. Summary of the invention

[0003] The embodiments of the present application provide a control method, device, equipment and storage medium for an oral cleaning device, which starts the driver only after the circuit board receives a signal from the first switch element and changes from the first signal to the second signal, thereby avoiding the problem that the first switch element short-circuits and causes the driver to be falsely triggered to start when the circuit board receives the first signal, or the driver is continuously triggered and causes the oral cleaning device to be unable to shut down. The above technical solution is as follows:

[0004] In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a control method for an oral cleaning device, wherein the oral cleaning device comprises a handle shell, a first button, a first switch element, a circuit board and a driving member, wherein the first switch element and the driving member are electrically connected to the circuit board respectively, the first button is exposed from the handle shell, the first button is used to link the first switch element, the first button has a pressed state and a released state, when the first button is in the pressed state, the first switch element outputs a first signal, and when the first button is in the released state, the first switch element outputs a second signal, and the method comprises:

[0005] After the circuit board receives the signal of the first switch element and changes from the first signal to the second signal, it outputs a start signal to the driving component; in response to the start signal, the driving component starts.

[0006] In the embodiment of the present application, after the circuit board receives a signal from the first switch element that changes from the first signal to the second signal, that is, after the first button undergoes a change from a pressed state to a released state, a start signal is output to the drive member of the oral cleaning device to start the drive member. This avoids the problem of a short circuit in the first switch element of the first button causing the drive member to be mistakenly triggered to start when the circuit board receives the first signal, or causing the drive member to be continuously triggered, causing the oral cleaning device to be unable to shut down. This improves the accuracy of control over the oral cleaning device.

[0007] In a possible implementation, the method further includes:

[0008] After the circuit board continuously receives the first signal for a first period of time, the circuit board outputs a first reminder signal; in response to the first reminder signal, the oral cleaning device sends a first reminder message; the oral cleaning device also includes an indicator light and / or a speaker; the first reminder message includes at least one of the following: the indicator light lights up, the speaker sends a first preset voice, and the driving member vibrates at a first preset frequency for a first preset period of time.

[0009] In the embodiment of the present application, since the circuit board will continue to receive the first signal when the first switch element is short-circuited, regardless of whether the driving part of the oral cleaning device has been started, the first switch element can be considered to be short-circuited after the circuit board continues to receive the first signal for a first period of time, thereby allowing the oral cleaning device to issue a first reminder message to promptly remind the user that the first switch element of the oral cleaning device has a short-circuit fault, so that the user can promptly deal with the fault caused by the oral cleaning device.

[0010] In a possible implementation, the method further includes: after the circuit board continuously receives the first signal for a second time period, the circuit board outputs a shutdown signal to the driving component; in response to the shutdown signal, the driving component stops working; and the second time period is less than the first time period.

[0011] In the embodiment of the present application, in order to avoid the situation where the circuit board continuously receives the first signal for a first time period and issues a reminder message (error reminder) when the first button is normally long pressed to shut down, thereby giving the user the illusion that the first switch element of the oral cleaning device has been short-circuited, the drive component can be stopped after the circuit board continuously receives the first signal for a second time period that is less than the first time period. As a result, under the functional logic of normally long pressing the first button to shut down, the circuit board will no longer receive the first signal after the oral cleaning device is normally long pressed to shut down, that is, the circuit board will not continuously receive the first signal for a second time period that is less than the first time period. At the same time, if the circuit board continues to receive the first signal for a second period of time due to a short circuit of the first switch element, if the short circuit of the first switch element has not been resolved, after the driving component stops working, the circuit board will continue to receive the first signal, and generate a first reminder message after the circuit board continues to receive the first signal for the first period of time, thereby avoiding the situation where a long press of the first button to shut down is mistakenly believed to be a short circuit of the first switch element and an error reminder is issued. This not only can more accurately remind the user that the first switch element has been short-circuited, but also further improves the accuracy of control of the oral cleaning device.

[0012] In a possible implementation, after the driving component is started, the method further includes: after the circuit board continuously receives the first signal for a third period of time, the circuit board outputs a shutdown signal to the driving component; in response to the shutdown signal, the driving component stops working.

[0013] In an embodiment of the present application, when the driving part has been started, the driving part is controlled to stop working after the circuit board continuously receives the first signal for a third period of time. This not only enables the oral cleaning device to be shut down when the user long presses the first button, but also enables the oral cleaning device (the driving part) to shut down naturally when a short circuit occurs in the first switch element, causing the first switch element to be triggered all the time, that is, when the circuit board continues to receive the first signal, thereby avoiding the problem that the first switch element is always triggered during a short circuit, resulting in the oral cleaning device (the driving part) being unable to shut down.

[0014] In a possible implementation, after the driving member is started, the method further includes: if the circuit board receives the first signal, outputting a first control signal; and in response to the first control signal, the oral cleaning device executes a first target event.

[0015] In the embodiment of the present application, since the circuit board will only receive the first signal but not the second signal after the first switching element is short-circuited, after the driving component is started, when the circuit board receives the first signal, the oral cleaning device can be controlled to execute the first target event, such as but not limited to the function mode or gear adjustment, thereby ensuring that even when the first switching element is short-circuited, the oral cleaning device can successfully complete the oral cleaning task.

[0016] In a possible implementation, the starting of the driving component includes: the driving component operates according to the target operating parameters; after the driving component is started, the method further includes: if the circuit board receives the first signal, the driving component continues to operate according to the target operating parameters until the operation is completed.

[0017] In the embodiment of the present application, since the circuit board will only receive the first signal but not the second signal after the first switching element is short-circuited, after the driving member is started, that is, working according to the target working parameters, if the circuit board receives the first signal, it can control the driving member of the oral cleaning device to continue working according to the target working parameters (target working mode and / or target working gear) until the current work is completed, thereby ensuring that even if the first switching element is short-circuited after the driving member is started, resulting in the driving member not responding, the oral cleaning device can successfully complete the current oral cleaning work according to the target working parameters.

[0018] In one possible implementation, after the driving member continues to work according to the target parameters, the method further includes: if the signal received by the circuit board from the first switching element changes from the first signal to the second signal, a second control signal is output; in response to the second control signal, the oral cleaning device executes a second target event.

[0019] In the embodiment of the present application, after the driving component works according to the target parameters, the oral cleaning device can be controlled to execute the second target event, such as but not limited to mode switching, gear switching, shutdown, start or stop of the detection function, etc., by changing the signal received by the circuit board from the first switch element from the first signal to the second signal, that is, after the first button undergoes a change from a pressed state to a released state, thereby avoiding the situation where the first switch element of the first button is short-circuited, causing the circuit board to mistakenly trigger the oral cleaning device to execute the second target event when receiving the first signal, thereby greatly reducing the probability of false triggering and improving the accuracy of control over the oral cleaning device.

[0020] In a possible implementation, after the driving component continues to work according to the target parameters, the method further includes: if the signal received by the circuit board from the first switching element changes from the first signal to the second signal, determining the duration of the first signal from the moment the first signal is received to the moment it changes to the second signal; if the duration of the first signal is greater than or equal to the effective duration, the driving component continues to work according to the target parameters until the current work is completed.

[0021] In the embodiment of the present application, the driving member will generate a certain vibration when working, and the short circuit of the first switch element is generally caused by water entering the first button or condensed water generated inside due to the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the housing of the oral cleaning device. Therefore, if the first switch element is short-circuited after the driving member is started, the water that causes the short circuit of the first switch element may also be shaken away by the vibration of the driving member, causing the signal output by the first switch element received by the circuit board to switch from the first signal to the second signal, resulting in a false triggering. In order to avoid the above-mentioned false triggering phenomenon caused by the vibration generated when the driving member is working, the first switch element can be switched from the moment the circuit board receives the first signal to the moment it changes to the second signal. When the duration of the signal is greater than or equal to the effective duration, it is considered that this change is a false triggering phenomenon caused by the vibration of the driving part after the first switch element is short-circuited, that is, it can be confirmed as an invalid operation, and no response is made, allowing the driving part to continue to work according to the target parameters until the end of this work, thereby avoiding the problem of false triggering of the first button caused by the short circuit of the first switch element during the operation of the driving part, or even repeated false triggering, further reducing the probability of false triggering and improving the accuracy of control of the oral cleaning device; at the same time, even if the first switch element of the first button is short-circuited, the driving part can complete the work normally while maintaining the original target parameters, thereby ensuring the practicability of the oral cleaning device.

[0022] In a possible implementation, the method further includes: when the oral cleaning device is triggered to switch to a preparatory working state, the circuit board outputs a second reminder signal; in response to the second reminder signal, the oral cleaning device sends a second reminder message; wherein, the oral cleaning device further includes an indicator light and / or a speaker; the second reminder message includes at least one of the following: the indicator light lights up, the speaker sends a second preset voice, and the driving member vibrates at a second preset frequency for a second preset time.

[0023] In an embodiment of the present application, when the oral cleaning device is triggered to switch to the preparatory working state, the oral cleaning device can be controlled to send a second reminder message. Thus, when the oral cleaning device fails and needs to be repaired, the oral cleaning device can send a second reminder message in the preparatory working state, thereby eliminating the possibility that the oral cleaning device is out of power or the circuit board has failed, thereby providing great convenience for the maintenance work of the oral cleaning device and greatly improving the maintenance efficiency of the maintenance personnel.

[0024] In a possible implementation, the oral cleaning device further includes a second button, and a second switch element linked to the second button, the second switch element is electrically connected to the circuit board, and the second button is exposed on the handle shell; the method further includes: when the second button is pressed, the circuit board outputs a third reminder signal; in response to the third reminder signal, the oral cleaning device sends a third reminder message; wherein, the oral cleaning device further includes an indicator light and / or a speaker; the third reminder message includes at least one of the following: the indicator light lights up, the speaker sends a third preset voice, and the driving member vibrates at a third preset frequency for a third preset time.

[0025] In an embodiment of the present application, the oral cleaning device may further include a second button in addition to the first button, and when the oral cleaning device fails and needs maintenance, pressing the second button can cause the oral cleaning device to send a third reminder message, thereby helping the maintenance personnel to eliminate the possibility that the oral cleaning device is out of power or that the circuit board has failed, thereby further providing greater convenience for the maintenance work of the oral cleaning device and improving the maintenance efficiency of the maintenance personnel.

[0026] In a possible implementation, after the circuit board receives the signal of the first switching element and changes from the first signal to the second signal, it outputs a start signal to the driving component, including: after the circuit board receives the first signal of the first switching element for a duration not less than a fourth duration, it receives the second signal and outputs a start signal to the driving component.

[0027] In an embodiment of the present application, after the circuit board receives the first signal of the first switch element for a duration not less than a fourth time period, it sends a start signal to the driver to start working, thereby avoiding a brief jump in the case of a short circuit in the first switch element, that is, when the short circuit state of the first switch element is switched to a non-short circuit state, for example, after the water droplets that caused the short circuit of the first switch element slide or evaporate, the first switch element changes from the short circuit state to the non-short circuit state or the first switch element has poor contact, which may cause the driver to automatically start erroneously. By setting the duration condition for the circuit board to receive the first signal, the normal pressing action and the jump of the short circuit of the first switch element can be distinguished, the false trigger interference caused by the short circuit jump of the first switch element can be filtered out, and the accuracy of control of the oral cleaning device can be improved.

[0028] In a possible implementation, the circuit board includes a pull-up resistor, the first end of the first switching element is grounded, the second end of the first switching element is connected to the first end of the pull-up resistor, and the second end of the pull-up resistor is connected to a power supply end; the signal of the first switching element is the level of the first end of the pull-up resistor and the second end of the first switching element, the first signal is a low level, and the second signal is a high level.

[0029] In the embodiment of the present application, by grounding one end of the first switch element and connecting the other end to one end of the pull-up resistor, and connecting the other end of the pull-up resistor to the power supply end, when the first button is in a pressed state, the first signal of the first switch element is at a low level, and when the first button is in a released state, the second signal of the first switch element is at a high level, that is, the current is small when the first switch element is closed, thereby avoiding the problem of sparking and affecting the life of the switch; at the same time, by grounding one end of the first switch element instead of directly grounding the pull-up resistor, the problem of conduction between the pull-up resistor and the microcontroller unit (Motor Control Unit, MCU) of the oral cleaning device and the ground, resulting in MCU leakage, is avoided, thereby reducing the power consumption loss of the oral cleaning device.

[0030] In a possible implementation, the oral cleaning device further includes: a third button, and a third switch element linked to the third button, the third switch element is electrically connected to the circuit board, and the third button is exposed on the handle shell; when a short circuit occurs in the first switch element linked to the first button, the third button is triggered to control the vibration of the driving member.

[0031] In an embodiment of the present application, when the first switch element linked to the first button short-circuits due to condensed water generated inside due to water ingress or temperature difference between the inside and outside of the housing of the oral cleaning device, that is, when the first button fails, the vibration of the driving member can be controlled by a third button other than the first button on the oral cleaning device, so that the water that causes the short-circuit of the first switch element can be dispersed by controlling the vibration of the driving member by the third button, thereby releasing the short circuit of the first switch element and realizing the self-maintenance function. This reduces the necessity for maintenance personnel to perform maintenance on the oral cleaning device to a certain extent and improves the practicality of the oral cleaning device.

[0032] In a possible implementation, when a short-circuit fault occurs in the first switch element linked to the first button, after the third button is triggered, the drive element is controlled to vibrate at the third vibration frequency and / or the third vibration amplitude; within the fifth time period after the third button is triggered, if the signal of the first switch element changes from the first signal to the second signal, the drive element is controlled to vibrate at the first vibration frequency and / or the first vibration amplitude.

[0033] In an embodiment of the present application, the driving member is controlled by the third button to vibrate with greater force within the fifth time period after the third button is triggered to disperse the water that causes the short circuit of the first switch element. After the short circuit of the first switch element is released, that is, the signal of the first switch element changes from the first signal to the second signal, the driving member will stop the self-maintenance work and switch back to the normal working state, that is, vibrate with the first vibration frequency and / or the first vibration amplitude. This not only avoids the problem of large power consumption caused by the driving member vibrating with a larger third vibration frequency and / or third vibration amplitude all the time, but also enables the user to promptly perceive that the self-maintenance function has been completed through the switching of the vibration frequency and / or vibration amplitude, and can start normal oral cleaning work.

[0034] In a possible implementation, when the first switch element linked to the first button does not short-circuit, the third button is used to adjust the working mode, working gear or on and off of the detection function of the oral cleaning device.

[0035] In the embodiments of the present application, not only can the first switch element be short-circuited due to water inflow into the first button or condensed water generated inside due to the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the housing of the oral cleaning device, that is, the first button fails, the third button other than the first button on the oral cleaning device can be used to control the vibration of the driving member to disperse the water that causes the short-circuit of the first switch element, relieve the short circuit of the first switch element, and realize the self-maintenance function, but also the third button can be used to adjust the working mode, working gear or opening and closing of the detection function of the oral cleaning device when the first switch element linked to the first button does not have a short-circuit failure, which not only reduces the necessity of maintenance personnel for the oral cleaning device to a certain extent, but also further improves the practicality of the oral cleaning device; at the same time, it can also realize button function reuse, reduce the production cost of the oral cleaning device, and improve the integration of the oral cleaning device.

[0036] In a possible implementation, the oral cleaning device further includes: a fourth button, and a fourth switch element linked to the fourth button, the fourth switch element being electrically connected to the circuit board, the fourth button being exposed on the handle shell, the fourth button having a pressed state and a released state, when the fourth button is in the pressed state, the fourth switch element outputs a third signal, and when the fourth button is in the released state, the fourth switch element outputs a fourth signal; the fourth button is used to adjust the working mode, working gear or detection function of the oral cleaning device on and off; the start-up of the drive member includes: the drive member works according to the target working parameters; after the drive member is started, the method further includes: when the duration for which the fourth switch element continuously outputs the third signal does not fall within the valid duration range, it is determined that a short circuit fault occurs in the fourth switch element, and the drive member continues to work according to the target working parameters.

[0037] In an embodiment of the present application, a fourth button in addition to the first button is provided on the oral cleaning device to adjust the working mode, working gear or opening and closing of the detection function of the oral cleaning device, and when the duration for which the fourth switch element of the fourth button continuously outputs the third signal does not fall within the valid duration range, it is determined that a short circuit fault has occurred in the fourth switch element, so that the driving part continues to work according to the target working parameters, thereby avoiding the short circuit of the fourth switch element during the operation of the driving part, causing the triggering of the fourth button, or even repeated triggering, further reducing the probability of false triggering and improving the accuracy of control of the oral cleaning device; at the same time, even if the fourth switch element of the fourth button is short-circuited, the driving part can complete the work normally while maintaining the original target parameter working (mode, gear), thereby ensuring the practicality of the oral cleaning device.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0097] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

[0098] The terms "first", "second", "third", etc. in the specification and claims of this application and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish different objects, rather than to describe a specific order. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not limited to the listed steps or units, but optionally includes steps or units that are not listed, or optionally includes other steps or units inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0099] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 The structural diagram of an oral cleaning device provided in an embodiment of the present application is exemplarily shown. Figure 1 As shown, the oral cleaning device 100 includes: a handle shell 110, a first button 120, a first switch element 130, a circuit board 140 and a driving member 150. Among them:

[0100] The first button 120 is exposed on the handle shell 110 and has a pressed state and a released state, and is used to link the first switch element 130 to control the opening of the oral cleaning device 100 .

[0101] Specifically, when the first button 120 is in a pressed state, ie, when the first button 120 is pressed, the first switch element 130 outputs a first signal; when the first button 120 is in a released state, ie, when the first button 120 is lifted, the first switch element 130 outputs a second signal.

[0102] The first switch element 130 and the driver 150 are electrically connected to the circuit board 140 respectively. The circuit board 140 is used to output a start signal to the driver 150 after receiving a signal from the first switch element 130 that changes from a first signal to a second signal, so that the driver 150 starts.

[0103] The driving member 150 may be, but is not limited to, a pump or a motor on the oral cleaning device 100 , and is used to drive the oral cleaning device 100 to perform oral cleaning.

[0104] It can be understood that when the oral cleaning device 100 is in the off state, the first button 120 should be in the released state; when the first button 120 is in the pressed state or changes from the pressed state to the released state, it means that the first switch element 130 of the first button 120 is triggered, that is, the user can also control the oral cleaning device 100 to shut down, or adjust the working mode, working gear or detection function on and off through the first button 120, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited to this.

[0105] Understandably, Figure 1The first button 120 of the oral cleaning device 100 is not limited to controlling the opening (power-on) of the oral cleaning device 100, but can also be used to control the oral cleaning device 100 to shut down, stop, adjust the working mode of the oral cleaning device 100, the working gear or the opening and closing of the detection function, etc., and the embodiment of the present application is not limited to this.

[0106] Understandably, Figure 1 In addition to the first button 120, the oral cleaning device 100 may also include other buttons such as a second button, a third button, and a fourth button. That is, in addition to the first switch element 130 corresponding to the first button 120, the oral cleaning device 100 may also include switch elements corresponding to other buttons such as the second switch element, the third switch element, and the fourth switch element. The switch element corresponding to each button will be electrically connected to the circuit board 140, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited to this.

[0107] Understandably, when Figure 1 When the oral cleaning device 100 includes multiple buttons such as the first button 120, the functions corresponding to the multiple buttons can be the same or different, and can be set accordingly according to actual needs. The embodiment of the present application does not limit this.

[0108] It is understandable that the oral cleaning device 100 can be a device capable of performing oral cleaning, including but not limited to an electric toothbrush or an oral irrigator, etc. The oral cleaning device 100 can also be installed with, but not limited to, one or more indicator lights, one or more buttons, a speaker, a motor, etc.

[0109] In some possible embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, Figure 1 The circuit board 140 in the embodiment includes a pull-up resistor 210, a first end 131 of the first switch element 130 is grounded, a second end 132 of the first switch element 130 is connected to the first end 211 of the pull-up resistor 210, and a second end 212 of the pull-up resistor 210 is connected to a power supply end 220, and a signal of the first switch element 130 is a level of the first end 211 of the pull-up resistor 210 and the second end 132 of the first switch element 130, so that Figure 1When the first button 120 is in a pressed state, the first signal output by the first switch element is at a low level; when the first button is in a released state, the second signal output by the first switch element is at a high level, that is, the current is small when the first switch element 130 is closed, thereby avoiding the problem of sparking and affecting the life of the switch; at the same time, by grounding one end of the first switch element 130 instead of directly grounding the pull-up resistor 210, the problem of conduction between the pull-up resistor 210 and the microcontroller unit (Motor Control Unit, MCU) of the oral cleaning device 100 and the ground, resulting in MCU leakage, is avoided, thereby reducing the power consumption loss of the oral cleaning device 100.

[0110] In the related art, oral cleaning devices such as electric toothbrushes or water flossers are usually provided with buttons to control the start and stop of the driving parts (motors) of the oral cleaning devices. However, on the one hand, oral cleaning devices are usually used in humid environments. If the waterproof performance of the buttons of the oral cleaning devices is not good, water can easily flow into the circuit board of the buttons from the gaps of the buttons, causing the switch elements corresponding to the buttons to short-circuit. On the other hand, even if the buttons of the oral cleaning devices have good waterproof performance, condensation water will be generated inside due to the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the handle shell of the oral cleaning device. For example, the outside of the handle shell of the oral cleaning device is relatively cool in winter, and when hot water is used for oral cleaning or the handle shell is held by hand, condensation water will be generated inside, causing the switch elements inside the oral cleaning device to short-circuit. In actual practice of oral cleaning devices, it is found that the short circuit of the switch elements can cause the oral cleaning device to self-start, that is, when not in use, the oral cleaning device will turn on by itself, or cannot be turned off after being turned on, which brings great trouble to the user.

[0111] In order to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned related technologies, Figure 1-Figure 2 , introduces a control method of an oral cleaning device provided in an embodiment of the present application. For details, please refer to Figure 3 , which is a schematic diagram of the implementation process of a control method for an oral cleaning device provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 As shown, when the circuit board receives the signal of the first switch element at time t1 and changes from the first signal to the second signal, it will output a start signal to the driver; after receiving the start signal from the circuit board, the driver can respond to the start signal and start.

[0112] Specifically, when the user wants to start the oral cleaning device, the user can press the first button in the released state to put it in the pressed state. At this time, the corresponding first switch element will output the first signal, and then release the first button to restore it to the released state. At this time, the signal output by the first switch element will switch the first signal to the second signal, so that after the circuit board receives the signal of the first switch element from the first signal to the second signal, that is, after the first button undergoes the change from the pressed state to the released state, the start signal is output to the drive element to start the oral cleaning device. This avoids the problem that the first switch element of the first button short-circuits, causing the circuit board to mistakenly trigger the drive element to start when receiving the first signal, or triggers it continuously, causing the oral cleaning device to be unable to shut down, thereby improving the accuracy of controlling the oral cleaning device.

[0113] Specifically, after receiving the start signal from the circuit board, the driving member can start working according to the target working parameters, that is, start the oral cleaning work according to the target working mode and / or the target working gear.

[0114] It is understandable that the target working mode and / or target working gear corresponding to the target working parameter may be the default working mode and / or working gear after the oral cleaning device is turned on, or may be a pre-set working mode and / or working gear, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. The above working modes include but are not limited to brushing mode, detection mode, vibration mode, flushing mode, etc., and the above working gears include but are not limited to level one, level two, level three, etc.

[0115] In some possible embodiments, in order to avoid the problem of erroneous automatic starting of the driver caused by a brief jump when the first switch element is short-circuited, that is, when the short-circuit state of the first switch element is switched to a non-short-circuit state, for example, after the water drop that caused the short-circuit of the first switch element slides off or evaporates, the first switch element changes from the short-circuit state to the non-short-circuit state, or the first switch element has poor contact, causing the signal output by the first switch element to jump between the first signal and the second signal, the circuit board can send a start signal to the driver to start working only when it receives the second signal after receiving the first signal of the first switch element for a duration of not less than a fourth duration, that is, the user needs to long press the first button to turn on the oral cleaning device, and by setting the duration condition for the circuit board to receive the first signal, it is possible to distinguish between the change in the output signal of the first switch element caused by the normal press-to-start action and the brief jump of the output signal when the first switch element is short-circuited or has poor contact, filter out the false trigger interference caused by the brief short-circuit jump of the first switch element, and further improve the accuracy of control of the oral cleaning device.

[0116] It can be understood that in order to distinguish the change in the output signal of the first switch element caused by the normal press-to-start action and the brief jump in the output signal when the first switch element is short-circuited or has poor contact, the above-mentioned fourth time length can be 30ms, 50ms, 100ms, etc., and the embodiment of the present application is not limited to this.

[0117] In some possible embodiments, since the circuit board will only receive the first signal but not the second signal after the first switching element is short-circuited, after the driving member is started, the circuit board can output the first control signal when it receives the first signal, and in response to the first control signal, control the oral cleaning device to execute the first target event, thereby ensuring that even when the first switching element is short-circuited, the oral cleaning device can successfully complete the oral cleaning task.

[0118] It can be understood that the above-mentioned first target event includes but is not limited to working mode switching, working gear switching, shutdown, starting or stopping of detection function, etc.

[0119] In some possible embodiments, since the circuit board will only receive the first signal but not the second signal after the first switching element is short-circuited, after the driving member starts to work according to the target working parameters, if the circuit board receives the first signal, the driving member of the oral cleaning device can be controlled to continue to work according to the target working parameters (target working mode and / or target working gear) until the current work is completed, thereby ensuring that even if the first switching element is short-circuited after the driving member is started, causing the driving member to fail to respond, the oral cleaning device can successfully complete the current oral cleaning work according to the target working parameters.

[0120] In some possible embodiments, in order to avoid the situation where a short circuit in the first switch element causes the oral cleaning device to be accidentally touched and controlled, after the circuit board receives the first signal and controls the driving member to continue to operate according to the target parameters at the time of its startup, the second control signal will only be output when the signal received by the circuit board from the first switch element changes from the first signal to the second signal, that is, the first button undergoes a change from a pressed state to a released state. Then, in response to the second control signal, the oral cleaning device is controlled to execute the second target event, thereby avoiding the situation where a short circuit in the first switch element of the first button causes the circuit board to accidentally trigger the oral cleaning device to execute the second target event when the circuit board receives the first signal. This greatly reduces the probability of false triggering and improves the accuracy of controlling the oral cleaning device.

[0121] It can be understood that the above-mentioned second target event includes but is not limited to working mode switching, working gear switching, shutdown, starting or stopping of detection function, etc.

[0122] In some possible embodiments, the driving member will generate certain vibrations when working, and the short circuit of the first switch element is generally caused by water entering the first button or condensed water generated inside the housing of the oral cleaning device due to the temperature difference between the inside and the outside of the housing. Therefore, if the first switch element is short-circuited after the driving member is started, the water that causes the short circuit of the first switch element may be dispersed by the vibration of the driving member, causing the signal output by the first switch element connected to the circuit board to switch from the first signal to the second signal, resulting in a false triggering. In order to avoid the above-mentioned false triggering phenomenon caused by the vibration generated when the driving member is working, such as Figure 4 As shown, after the driver works according to the target parameters, if the duration of the first signal is greater than or equal to the effective duration from the moment the circuit board receives the first signal to the moment it changes to the second signal, it can be considered that this change is a false triggering phenomenon caused by the vibration of the driver after the first switch element is short-circuited, that is, it can be confirmed as an invalid operation, so that no response is made, and the driver continues to work according to the target parameters until the end of this work, thereby avoiding the problem of false triggering of the first button caused by the short circuit of the first switch element during the operation of the driver, or even repeated false triggering, further reducing the probability of false triggering and improving the accuracy of control of the oral cleaning device; at the same time, even if the first switch element of the first button is short-circuited, the driver can maintain the original target parameters and complete the work normally, thereby ensuring the practicality of the oral cleaning device.

[0123] In some possible embodiments, in order to avoid the problem that the first switch element of the first button short-circuits, causing the circuit board to continuously receive the first signal, i.e., is continuously triggered, resulting in the oral cleaning device being unable to shut down, after the driver is started, the circuit board can output a stop signal to the driver after the duration of continuous receipt of the first signal reaches a third duration, and then respond to the stop signal to control the driver to stop working, thereby not only being able to shut down the oral cleaning device when the user long presses the first button, but also being able to naturally shut down the oral cleaning device (the driver) when a short-circuit failure occurs in the first switch element, causing the first switch element to be continuously triggered, i.e., the circuit board continuously receives the first signal, thereby avoiding the problem that the first switch element is continuously triggered when short-circuited, resulting in the oral cleaning device (the driver) being unable to shut down.

[0124] In some possible embodiments, since the circuit board will continue to receive the first signal when the first switch element is short-circuited, regardless of whether the driving part of the oral cleaning device has been started, after the circuit board continues to receive the first signal for a first period of time, it can be considered that the first switch element has been short-circuited, and the circuit board will output a first reminder signal. Then, in response to the first reminder signal, the oral cleaning device will send a first reminder message, thereby promptly reminding the user that the first switch element of the oral cleaning device has a short-circuit fault, so that the user can promptly deal with the fault of the oral cleaning device.

[0125] It can be understood that the first duration can be 5S, 8S, etc., and this embodiment of the present application is not limited to this.

[0126] Understandably, Figure 1 The oral cleaning device 100 may further include an indicator light and / or a speaker, and the first reminder message may include but is not limited to at least one of the following: the indicator light is on, the speaker emits a first preset voice, the driving member vibrates at a first preset frequency for a first preset time, etc. The first preset voice may be voice data related to reminding the user that a short circuit fault has occurred in the first switch element or that a fault has occurred in the oral cleaning device, the first preset frequency may be 1 Hz, 10 Hz, etc., and the first preset time may be 5S, 10S, etc., which are not limited in the present embodiment of the application.

[0127] In some possible embodiments, in order to avoid the situation where the circuit board continuously receives the first signal for a first time period and issues a reminder message (error reminder) when the first button is normally long pressed to shut down, thereby giving the user the illusion that the first switch element of the oral cleaning device has been short-circuited, it is possible to output a stop signal to the driver after the circuit board continuously receives the first signal for a second time period that is less than the first time period, and then respond to the stop signal to stop the driver from working, so that under the functional logic of normally long pressing the first button to shut down, the circuit board will no longer receive the first signal after the oral cleaning device is normally long pressed to shut down, that is, the circuit board continuously receives the first signal. The time it takes for the circuit board to receive the first signal will not reach the first time period to generate an error reminder; at the same time, if the time it takes for the circuit board to continuously receive the first signal reaches the second time period due to the short circuit of the first switch element, if the short circuit of the first switch element has not been resolved, after the driving component stops working, the circuit board will continue to receive the first signal, and generate the first reminder information after the time it continuously receives the first signal reaches the first time period, thereby avoiding the situation where long pressing the first button to shut down is mistakenly believed to be a short circuit of the first switch element and an error reminder is issued. This not only can more accurately remind the user that the first switch element has been short-circuited, but also further improves the accuracy of controlling the oral cleaning device.

[0128] It can be understood that the second duration can be 4S, 5S, etc., and this embodiment of the present application is not limited to this.

[0129] In some possible embodiments, the oral cleaning device does not have the function of long-pressing to shut down. At this time, if the circuit board continues to receive the first signal, the oral cleaning device can first issue a short-circuit reminder, and then control the oral cleaning device to shut down. In this way, the user can combine the short-circuit reminder message to promptly understand that the shutdown is caused by a short circuit, saving troubleshooting time. For example, when the circuit board continues to receive the first signal for 3 seconds, a reminder message can be issued to let the user know in time that the first switch element has been short-circuited. Then, when the circuit board continues to receive the first signal for 5 seconds, the oral cleaning device can be controlled to shut down. Combined with the previous short-circuit reminder, the user can promptly understand that the shutdown is caused by a short circuit.

[0130] In some possible embodiments, in order to avoid the problem that the first switch element is always triggered when short-circuited, resulting in the oral cleaning device (the driving member) being unable to shut down, such as Figure 5 As shown, after the driving member is started, a stop signal can be output to the driving member after the circuit board continuously receives the first signal for a third period of time, and then the driving member is controlled to stop working in response to the stop signal. Therefore, not only can the oral cleaning device be shut down when the user long presses the first button, but also the oral cleaning device (the driving member) can be shut down naturally when a short circuit occurs in the first switch element, causing the first switch element to be triggered all the time, that is, when the circuit board continues to receive the first signal, thereby solving the problem that the oral cleaning device (the driving member) cannot be shut down due to the first switch element being triggered all the time when short circuit occurs.

[0131] In some possible embodiments, when the oral cleaning device is triggered to switch to the preparatory working state, the circuit board outputs a second reminder signal. In response to the second reminder signal, the oral cleaning device sends a second reminder message. Thus, when the oral cleaning device fails and needs to be repaired, the oral cleaning device can send a second reminder message in the preparatory working state, thereby eliminating the possibility that the oral cleaning device is out of power or that the circuit board has failed, thereby providing greater convenience for the maintenance work of the oral cleaning device and greatly improving the maintenance efficiency of the maintenance personnel.

[0132] Understandably, Figure 1The oral cleaning device 100 may further include an indicator light and / or a speaker, and the second reminder message may include but is not limited to at least one of the following: the indicator light is on, the speaker emits a second preset voice, the driving member vibrates at a second preset frequency for a second preset time, etc. The second preset voice may be voice data related to reminding the user that the oral cleaning device is in a preparatory working state, the second preset frequency may be 0.5 Hz, 2 Hz, etc., and the second preset time may be 3S, 2S, etc., which are not limited in the present embodiment.

[0133] In some possible embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, the oral cleaning device 600 may include Figure 1 In addition to the handle shell 110, the first button 120, the first switch element 130, the circuit board 140 and the driving member 150, it can also include a second button 610 and a second switch element 620 linked to the second button 610, the second switch element 620 is electrically connected to the circuit board 140, and the second button 610 is exposed on the handle shell 110.

[0134] Specifically, it can be Figure 6 When the second button 610 of the oral cleaning device 600 is pressed, the circuit board outputs a third reminder signal, and then in response to the third reminder signal, the oral cleaning device sends a third reminder message, that is, when the oral cleaning device fails and needs to be repaired, pressing the second button can cause the oral cleaning device to send a third reminder message, thereby eliminating the possibility that the oral cleaning device is out of power or that the circuit board has failed, further providing greater convenience for the maintenance work of the oral cleaning device and improving the maintenance efficiency of the maintenance personnel.

[0135] Understandably, Figure 6 The oral cleaning device 600 may further include an indicator light and / or a speaker, and the third reminder message may include but is not limited to at least one of the following: the indicator light is on, the speaker emits a third preset voice, the driving member vibrates at a third preset frequency for a third preset time, etc. The third preset voice may be voice data related to the function of the second button, the third preset frequency may be 0.4 Hz, 1.5 Hz, etc., and the third preset time may be 1.5S, 0.9S, etc., which are not limited in the present embodiment.

[0136] It is understandable that the first reminder message, the second reminder message, and the third reminder message can be the same reminder message or different reminder messages, and the embodiment of the present application does not limit this. When the first reminder message, the second reminder message, and the third reminder message are different reminder messages, the user can be more clear about the situation corresponding to each reminder message, so that the user can more accurately understand the state of the oral cleaning device or when the oral cleaning device fails, the maintenance personnel can more accurately eliminate the causes of some failures, further improving the maintenance efficiency.

[0137] In some possible embodiments, the oral cleaning device may include Figure 1 In addition to the handle shell 110, the first button 120, the first switch element 130, the circuit board 140 and the driving member 150, it can also include a third button and a third switch element linked to the third button, the third switch element is electrically connected to the circuit board, and the third button is exposed on the handle shell. At this time, the first button 120 can be a switch button, and the third button can be a working mode or working gear adjustment button or a switch button of a detection function, etc. Only when the first switch element linked to the first button short-circuit fault occurs due to condensed water generated inside the first button or the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the oral cleaning device shell, the third button other than the first button on the oral cleaning device will be triggered to control the vibration of the driving part. In this way, the water that causes the short circuit of the first switch element will be dispersed by controlling the vibration of the driving part through the third button, and the short circuit of the first switch element will be released to realize the self-maintenance function, which to a certain extent reduces the necessity for maintenance personnel to perform maintenance on the oral cleaning device. In addition, the vibration of the driving part will be controlled by triggering the third button only when a short circuit fault occurs in the first button 120, so as to avoid the problem that the third button is triggered when the first button 120 is normal and causes the driving part to vibrate, resulting in the user being unable to distinguish which button is the switch button, thereby further improving the practicality of the oral cleaning device.

[0138] It can be understood that the third button can be Figure 6 The second button 610 in the oral cleaning device 600 shown, or in addition to Figure 6 The embodiments of the present application do not limit the other buttons other than the first button 120 and the second button 610 in the oral cleaning device 600 shown.

[0139] In some possible embodiments, when the oral cleaning device includes in addition Figure 1When the handle shell 110, the first button 120, the first switch element 130, the circuit board 140 and the driver 150 in the embodiment include a third button and a third switch element linked to the third button, when a short circuit occurs in the first switch element linked to the first button, after the third button is triggered, the driver can be controlled to vibrate with a third vibration frequency and / or a third vibration amplitude, the third vibration frequency is greater than the first vibration frequency, the third vibration amplitude is greater than the first vibration amplitude, and within a fifth time period after the third button is triggered, if the signal of the first switch element changes from the first signal to the second signal, the driver is controlled to vibrate with the first vibration frequency and / or the first vibration amplitude, that is, after the third button is triggered, The three-button controlled driving member will vibrate more vigorously within the fifth time period after the third button is triggered to disperse the water that causes the short circuit of the first switch element. After the short circuit of the first switch element is released, that is, the signal of the first switch element changes from the first signal to the second signal, the driving member will stop the self-maintenance work and switch back to the normal working state, that is, vibrate with the first vibration frequency and / or the first vibration amplitude. This not only avoids the problem of large power consumption caused by the driving member vibrating with a larger third vibration frequency and / or third vibration amplitude all the time, but also allows the user to promptly perceive that the self-maintenance function has been completed through the switching of the vibration frequency and / or vibration amplitude, and can start normal oral cleaning work.

[0140] It is understandable that when the fifth time period is too short, the self-maintenance work of the oral cleaning device may not be completed, which may result in the driver not stopping the self-maintenance work even if the self-maintenance work is completed after the fifth time period after the third button is triggered, that is, the signal of the first switch element changes from the first signal to the second signal after the fifth time period after the third button is triggered, thereby causing the problem of large power consumption caused by vibrating at a larger third vibration frequency and / or third vibration amplitude. The fifth time period may be 3S, 5S, etc., and may also be set based on test experience, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0141] It can be understood that the first vibration frequency can be 1 Hz, 2 Hz, etc., and the first vibration amplitude can be 1 mm, 1.5 mm, etc., which are not limited in the embodiments of the present application. The third vibration frequency can be any vibration frequency greater than the first vibration frequency, such as 5 Hz, 6 Hz, etc., and the third vibration amplitude can be any vibration amplitude greater than the first vibration amplitude, such as 2 mm, 2.5 mm, etc., which are not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

When the first switch element linked to the first button has not suffered a short circuit failure, the third button is used to adjust the working mode, working gear or opening and closing of the detection function of the oral cleaning device.
