Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of ear cleaning, and more particularly relates to an ear cleaner. Background Art

[0002] The external auditory canal is a curved tube running from the external auditory meatus to the eardrum. Glands within the cartilaginous skin of the external auditory canal produce secretions such as earwax. This earwax adheres to the surface of the skin in the external auditory canal, typically in the form of flakes or lumps. If not expelled promptly, it clumps together and blocks the external auditory canal. In severe cases, this can affect hearing and even cause symptoms such as tinnitus and deafness. Due to the narrow ear canal and the sensitivity of the eardrum, ear cleaning generally requires the use of an ear cleaner. Current ear cleaners are bulky and inconvenient to carry. Summary of the Invention

[0042] See Figure 1 , an ear cleaner, including a water tank component 100 and a cleaning component 200.

[0043] See Figure 6 The water tank assembly 100 includes a water tank housing 110, in which a first water tank 120 and a second water tank 130 are respectively provided. The first water tank 120 can be used to store clean water for cleaning the ear canal. The second water tank 130 can be used to receive wastewater after cleaning the ear canal.

[0044] See Figure 2 The cleaning assembly 200 includes a cleaning shell 210, a first end of the cleaning shell 210 is rotatably connected to the first end of the water tank shell 110, and a cleaning head 220 and a waste liquid hole 230 are provided at the second end of the cleaning shell 210. The port at the second end of the cleaning shell 210 is also annularly provided with a sleeve 240, and the cleaning head 220 and the waste liquid hole 230 are located in the sleeve 240. The sleeve 240 is used to be sleeved on the ear, and when the cleaning shell 210 and the water tank shell 110 rotate relative to each other, the sleeve 240 can be rotated to a state opposite to the second end of the water tank shell 110, so that the water tank assembly 100 and the cleaning assembly 200 form a ring-shaped state.

[0045] Further, see Figure 3 The cleaning assembly 200 may further include a first pipe 250a and a second pipe 250b. The first pipe 250a is connected to the cleaning head 220 and the first water tank 120 respectively, and the second pipe 250b is connected to the waste liquid hole 230 and the second water tank 130 respectively.

[0046] Specifically, combined Figure 1 and Figure 8 When cleaning the ear canal, the cleaning shell 210 and the water tank shell 110 can be rotated relative to each other so that the cleaning head 220 set at the second end of the cleaning shell 210 can be away from the water tank assembly 100, and then the sleeve 240 can be put on the ear so that the ear is located in the sleeve 240. At this time, the water in the first water tank 120 can be ejected through the first pipe 250a through the cleaning head 220 to clean the ear canal, and the waste liquid generated by cleaning can flow into the second pipe 250b through the waste liquid hole 230 and flow into the second water tank 130 for storage.

[0047] After cleaning is completed, the cleaning housing 210 and the water tank housing 110 can be rotated relative to each other until the sleeve 240 is opposite to the second end of the water tank housing 110, so that the water tank assembly 100 and the cleaning assembly 200 form a ring state.

[0048] That is to say, in the ear cleaner of the present application, by making the water tank shell 110 of the water tank assembly 100 rotate relative to the cleaning shell 210 of the cleaning assembly 200, when there is no need to clean the ear canal, the sleeve 240 of the cleaning shell 210 can be rotated to be opposite to the water tank shell 110, so that the water tank assembly 100 and the cleaning assembly 200 form a ring state. This method can reduce the space occupied by the ear cleaner to facilitate the user's carrying.

[0049] For example, in one embodiment, the cleaning housing 210 and the water tank housing 110 can be an arc-shaped structure. When the sleeve 240 on the cleaning housing 210 rotates to a position opposite to the second end of the water tank housing 110, the water tank assembly 100 and the cleaning assembly 200 can form a circular ring. When the ear canal needs to be cleaned, the sleeve 240 on the cleaning housing 210 can be rotated in a direction away from the water tank assembly 100 until the water tank assembly 100 and the cleaning assembly 200 form an "S"-shaped structure. In this way, when cleaning the ear canal, the user's hand can act on the water tank assembly 100 to enable the sleeve 240 to be placed on the ear canal. It can be seen that setting the cleaning housing 210 and the water tank housing 110 as an arc-shaped structure can be convenient for users to store and carry, and is also convenient for users to use.

[0050] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the first conduit 250a and the second conduit 250b can be made of a flexible material. It is understood that since the cleaning housing 210 and the water tank housing 110 need to rotate relative to each other, the first conduit 250a and the second conduit 250b are made of a flexible material so that they can bend and twist during the relative rotation between the cleaning housing 210 and the water tank housing 110, thereby continuously ensuring that the first conduit 250a is connected to the cleaning head 220 and the first water tank 120, respectively, and the second conduit 250b is connected to the waste liquid hole 230 and the second water tank 130, respectively.

[0051] See Figure 2 and Figure 8 In one embodiment, a receiving groove 260 may be further provided at the second end of the cleaning shell 210, the cleaning head 220 and the waste liquid hole 230 are located in the receiving groove 260, and the sleeve 240 is provided at the notch of the receiving groove 260, and the sleeve 240 is made of a flexible material.

[0052] It can be understood that setting the sleeve 240 to a flexible material is conducive to sealing the ear after it is set, avoiding the outflow of waste liquid during the ear canal cleaning process to ensure that the waste liquid can flow into the waste liquid hole 230. In addition, a accommodating groove 260 is provided for accommodating the cleaning head 220 and the waste liquid hole 230. On the one hand, it avoids the collision between the cleaning head 220 and the ear. On the other hand, the accommodating groove 260 can form a liquid storage chamber to collect the waste liquid during the cleaning process, thereby facilitating the waste material to flow into the waste liquid hole 230.

[0053] See Figure 1 and Figure 3 In one embodiment, the ear cleaner may further include a rotating member 300, the first end of the water tank shell 110 and the first end of the cleaning shell 210 are respectively connected to the rotating member 300, and at least one of the water tank shell 110 and the cleaning shell 210 can rotate relative to the rotating member 300.

[0054] For example, the first end of the water tank housing 110 may be fixedly connected to the rotating member 300 , and the first end of the cleaning housing 210 may be sleeved on the rotating member 300 and may rotate relative to the rotating member 300 .

[0055] Furthermore, the rotating member 300 may be provided with a first through hole 310 and a second through hole 320, respectively. The first through hole 310 is connected to the first water tank 120 and the first pipe 250a, respectively. The second through hole 320 is connected to the second water tank 130 and the second pipe 250b, respectively.

[0056] In one embodiment, the first pipe 250 a and the second pipe 250 b may be sleeved on the first through hole 310 and the second through hole 320 .

[0057] See Figure 3 The cleaning assembly 200 may further include a water pump 270 . The water pump 270 is disposed in the cleaning housing 210 and is connected to the first pipe 250 a .

[0058] It is understood that when the water pump 270 is working, the water in the first water tank 120 can be transported to the cleaning head 220 through the first pipe 250a for ejection.

[0059] In one embodiment, the cleaning head 220 can have different functions, such as cleaning and massaging functions.

[0060] The cleaning head 220 may include a main body 221, a first cleaning portion 222, a second cleaning portion 223, a third conduit 224, and a fourth conduit 225. The first end of the main body 221 is provided with the second end of the cleaning housing 210, the first cleaning portion 222 and the second cleaning portion 223 are respectively located at the second end of the main body 221, and the third conduit 224 and the fourth conduit 225 are respectively located within the main body 221. The first cleaning portion 222 can spray water to massage the ear canal, and the second cleaning portion 223 can spray water to rinse and massage the auricle.

[0061] The cleaning assembly 200 also includes a solenoid valve 280, which includes a liquid inlet, a first liquid outlet and a second liquid outlet. The liquid inlet of the solenoid valve 280 is connected to the first pipe 250a, the first liquid outlet of the solenoid valve 280 is connected to the first cleaning part 222 through the third pipe 224, and the second liquid outlet is connected to the second cleaning part 223 through the fourth pipe 225.

[0062] Specifically, when the electromagnetic valve 280 opens the first liquid outlet, the water flowing into the first pipe 250a can flow to the first cleaning portion 222 through the third pipe 224 and be ejected to clean the ear canal.

[0063] When the electromagnetic valve 280 opens the second liquid outlet, the water flowing into the first pipe 250a can flow to the second cleaning portion 223 through the fourth pipe 225 and be ejected to clean and massage the auricle.

[0064] Specifically, the water pump 270 and the solenoid valve 280 can be fixed in the cleaning shell 210 through a bracket, and the liquid inlet and liquid outlet of the water pump 270 can be respectively connected to the pipeline of the first pipe 250a. When the water pump 270 is working, the water in the first water tank 120 can flow into the water pump 270 through the first pipe 250a and flow out to the solenoid valve 280 through the first water pump 270. The solenoid valve 280 controls the opening and closing of the first liquid outlet and the second liquid outlet respectively, so that water can flow into the third channel or the fourth channel.

[0065] Further, see Figure 4 To enhance the cleaning and massaging effects of the cleaning head 220, the first cleaning portion 222 can be positioned protruding from the second cleaning portion 223 in a direction away from the main body 221, and the side surfaces of the first cleaning portion 222 can be configured as conical surfaces. It is understood that the conical side surfaces of the first cleaning portion 222 can facilitate the first cleaning portion 222 to approach the ear canal, thereby facilitating cleaning of the ear canal.

[0066] The second cleaning portion 223 may include a plurality of cleaning nozzles 2231 . The plurality of cleaning nozzles 2231 are disposed around the circumference of the first cleaning portion 222 , and the plurality of cleaning nozzles 2231 are respectively communicated with the first cleaning portion 222 .

[0067] It can be understood that since the second cleaning part 223 includes multiple cleaning nozzles 2231 connected to the fourth pipe 225, and the multiple cleaning nozzles 2231 are arranged around the circumference of the first cleaning part 222, when the first cleaning part 222 is aimed at the ear canal, the multiple cleaning nozzles 2231 can be aimed at the auricle around the ear canal, thereby achieving massage of the auricle.

[0068] See Figure 6 and Figure 7 The water tank assembly 100 may include a partition 140 disposed in the water tank housing 110 , and the partition 140 extends from a first end to a second end of the water tank housing 110 to partition the interior of the water tank housing 110 into a first water tank 120 and a second water tank 130 .

[0069] The second end of the water tank housing 110 is respectively provided with a first cover 150 and a second cover 160, wherein the first cover 150 corresponds to the first water tank 120 to open or close the first water tank 120, and the second cover 160 corresponds to the second water tank 130 to open or close the second water tank 130.

[0070] It can be understood that the first water tank 120 can be easily opened through the first cover 150 to fill water into the first water tank 120, and the second water tank 130 can be easily opened through the second cover 160 to pour out the waste water in the second water tank 130.

[0071] See Figure 6 and Figure 7 The water tank assembly 100 also includes a fifth pipe 290, which is arranged in the first water tank 120, and one end of the fifth pipe 290 is connected to the first pipe 250a, and the other end of the fifth pipe 290 extends to an end of the first water tank 120 away from the first pipe 250a, and is connected to the first water tank 120.

[0072] It can be understood that when the water tank shell 110 and the cleaning shell 210 rotate relative to each other to the second end where the cleaning head 220 is away from the cleaning shell 210, the cleaning head 220 can be used to clean the ear canal. At this time, the water in the first water tank 120 will flow to the end of the first water tank 120 away from the first pipe 250a under the action of gravity. After the fifth pipe 290 is set in the first water tank 120 and connected to the first pipe 250a, the water in the first water tank 120 can always enter the fifth pipe 290 from the end of the fifth pipe 290 away from the first pipe 250a, and then flow into the first pipe 250a. This method can always ensure that the water in the first water tank 120 flows to the cleaning head 220.

[0073] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of some inventions should be included in the protection scope of some inventions.
