[0039] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and advantages to be solved by the application clearer, the following will be described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. In the following description, specific details such as specific configurations and components are provided only to help fully understand the embodiments of the application. Therefore, it should be clear to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications can be made to the embodiments described herein without departing from the scope and spirit of the application. In addition, for clarity and brevity, the description of known functions and structures has been omitted.

[0040] It should be understood that the references to "one embodiment" or "an embodiment" throughout the specification mean that the specific features, structures, or characteristics associated with the embodiment are included in at least one embodiment of the present application. Therefore, the references to "in one embodiment" or "in an embodiment" appearing throughout the specification do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. In addition, these specific features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.

[0041] The present application aims to solve the problems of existing consumable bins, such as large size, heavy weight, and unstable connection with the handle, and provides a consumable bin and personal care equipment.

[0042] First embodiment:

[0043] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a consumables bin, comprising:

[0044] The main body structure 1 is provided with a containing space, and the containing space is used to contain the consumable bottle;

[0045] At least a part of the structure of the main body structure 1 is configured as a metal component 2 , and the metal component 2 is used to be connected to a fuselage structure 300 to be matched.

[0046] The main body structure 1 of the present application has a storage space, which is used to accommodate a consumable bottle. The consumable bottle can be a disposable consumable bottle, which can be used to accommodate consumables such as toothpaste and skin care products. The shape of the storage space is adapted to the state of the consumable bottle. The metal part 2 is connected to the main body structure 1 and is arranged on the same center line, and the metal part 2 forms an opening structure. It should be understood that the opening structure is the opening of the storage space, and the metal part 2 can be adapted to connect with the personal protection equipment.

[0047] It should be known that due to the large size of existing personal care devices (such as toothbrushes with a paste and brush), in order to reduce the size of the entire machine, it is necessary to reduce the volume of the consumable bin and the connection space between the consumable bin and the handle. Therefore, the part where the consumable bin is connected to the handle of the personal care device needs to be thinned (that is, the thickness of the connection part needs to be reduced). However, the existing consumable bin is made of plastic. If the plastic material is made thin, the connection strength will be insufficient, thereby making the connection between the consumable bin and the handle unstable.

[0048] In the present application, the part of the consumable bin used for connecting with the handle is made of metal piece 2, which can be made thinner to reduce the connection space between the consumable bin and the handle, which is beneficial to reducing the volume of the consumable bin and the whole machine. At the same time, the metal piece 2 can improve the connection strength and improve the stability of the connection between the consumable bin and the handle. In addition, since the metal piece 2 is made thinner, the weight of the consumable bin can also be reduced, which is beneficial to the lightweight design of the whole machine.

[0049] Optionally, the metal piece may be made of copper, stainless steel or other alloys.

[0050] Optionally, the bottle body of the main structure 1 can be made of metal or plastic. When the main structure 1 is made of metal, the consumable bin can be an integrally molded part. When the main structure 1 is made of plastic, the consumable bin is manufactured by a casing method, that is, the bottle body is formed by injection molding on the metal part.

[0051] That is to say, the main body structure 1 can be a metal structure integrated with the metal part 2, or it can be a structure in which the bottle body is made of plastic and the connecting part is a metal part.

[0052] Optionally, the outer diameter of the metal component 2 is smaller than the outer diameter of the main body structure 1 .

[0053] Here, the outer diameter of the metal member 2 is set to be smaller than the outer diameter of the main body structure 1, which is conducive to connection with the personal protection equipment and can also improve the stability of the connection.

[0054] Continue to refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, in an optional embodiment, the metal part 2 is provided with a first connection structure 3 for forming a detachable connection with the fuselage structure 300, and the first connection structure 3 is any one of a screw-on structure, a snap-on structure, a threaded connection structure, and a magnetic structure.

[0055] In the embodiment of the present application, the first connection structure 3 is preferably located on the outer wall of the metal part 2. For example, when the first connection structure 3 is a magnetic structure, the first connection structure 3 and the body structure 300 of the personal care device are fixed in relative position through the magnetic force, and can keep the consumable bin and the personal care device relatively fixed when the consumable bin is subjected to a certain external force. When the consumable bin needs to be opened, a force greater than the magnetic force is applied to the consumable bin, so that the consumable bin is released from the magnetic adsorption. Compared with the traditional friction buckle fixation, the first connection structure 3 using magnetic attraction avoids the buckle failure caused by wear or structural fatigue during the opening and closing process. Compared with the opening and closing lock of the buckle triggered by pressing or other operations, the present application can realize the opening of the consumable bin in one step.

[0056] For another example, when the first connecting structure 3 is a screw-fastener, a detachable connection can be formed with the body structure 300 of the personal protection device through the first connecting structure 3, and the shape of the screw-fastener is compatible with the personal protection device. The present application does not impose any specific restrictions on the specific structure of the shape of the screw-fastener.

[0057] Since the existing consumable bin is a sealed structure, that is, the bottom of the consumable bin is solid, it is easy to accumulate liquid and residual toothpaste, thereby easily breeding bacteria. Therefore, the present application provides a through hole in the consumable bin.

[0058] Further, refer to Figure 2 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the consumables bin further includes:

[0059] at least one through-hole structure 4;

[0060] The through hole structure 4 is arranged on the side and / or bottom of the consumables bin, and the through hole structure 4 is communicated with the accommodating space.

[0061] In the embodiment of the present application, at least one through-hole structure 4 is provided on the consumable bin, and the through-hole structure 4 is connected to the accommodating space, which can facilitate the discharge of excess liquid from the accommodating space. The through-hole structure 4 is provided on the side and / or bottom of the consumable bin. Preferably, the through-hole structure 4 is provided at the bottom of the consumable bin, and the number is three. The through-hole structure 4 of the present application also has a positioning function.

[0062] It should be understood that the through-hole structure 4 of the consumables bin can be opened on the side or at the bottom, preferably at the bottom, to facilitate drainage, that is, to facilitate drainage, toothpaste, mouthwash, cosmetics or skin care products and other liquids to avoid bacterial growth and improve hygiene. Moreover, the through-hole structure 4 can also intake and exhaust air, so that the air pressure inside and outside the consumables bin is consistent, which is convenient for taking out the consumable bottles. In addition, the through-hole structure 4 can also be used as a positioning hole to facilitate the positioning of the personal care device and the charging stand.

[0063] It can be understood that the shape of the through hole structure 4 can be annular, circular, elliptical, triangular, quadrilateral or other polygonal or irregular shapes and a combination of the aforementioned multiple shapes of through holes. It can also be understood that the bottom can be a hollow structure (i.e., a hollow structure composed of multiple irregularly shaped through holes), the number of through holes at the bottom can be one or more, and the arrangement of the through holes can be radial, circumferential, array, or irregular, and the present application does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0064] In this embodiment, the through hole structure 4 is an elliptical hole, which is arranged radially and is three in number, thus ensuring aesthetics.

[0065] Further, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, optionally, a visual window 6 is provided on the outer side wall of the main body structure 1 to facilitate the user to observe the remaining amount of the internal consumable bottle.

[0066] In the embodiment of the present application, a visual window 6 is provided on the outer wall of the main body structure 1, and a fixed scale can be provided on the visual window 6. The current amount of consumables in the internal consumable bottle can be seen through the visual window 6 provided on the main body structure 1, which further improves the practicality of the device. That is, the visual window 6 provided on the consumable bin allows the user to observe the usage of the internal consumable bottle.

[0067] The visible window 6 of the present application is made of a transparent material and has no limitation on shape.

[0068] Further, refer to Figure 3 As shown, the consumables bin also includes:

[0069] The air avoidance groove 5 is arranged on the inner wall of the metal component 2 along the circumferential direction.

[0070] In an embodiment of the present application, a void groove 5 is circumferentially arranged on the inner wall of the metal part 2. The void groove 5 extends toward the center line to form a stepped surface. The void groove 5 is arranged on the inner wall of the metal part 2 to prevent the inner wall of the metal part 2 from being crushed by the mold during injection molding.

[0071] Optionally, the height of the main body structure 1 ranges from 55 mm to 60 mm, and the thickness of the main body structure 1 ranges from 1.5 mm to 2.5 mm. In other words, the height of the overall structure of the consumables bin ranges from 55 mm to 60 mm, and the thickness ranges from 1.5 mm to 2.5 mm.

[0072] Optionally, the height range of the metal part 2 is 20 mm to 22 mm; the thickness range of the metal part 2 is 0.5 mm to 0.8 mm.

[0073] In particular, when only part of the structure of the main body structure 1 is the metal part 2, the height of the metal part 2 protruding from the bottle body ranges from 8mm to 12mm. That is to say, when the main body structure 1 includes a plastic bottle body and a metal part 2, the metal part 2 needs to reserve some space for injection molding to form the plastic bottle body, so that part of the metal part 2 is wrapped in plastic, and part of it protrudes from the bottle body for connection with the fuselage structure 300. The height of the metal part 2 protruding from the plastic bottle body ranges from the height of the visible part, and the height of the visible part ranges from 8mm to 12mm. Preferably, the thickness of the metal part 2 is 0.6mm.

[0074] Optionally, the distance between the air-avoiding groove 5 and the top plane of the metal component 2 is between 5 mm and 8 mm; wherein the top plane is a plane away from the accommodating space.

[0075] In summary, the consumables bin of the present application has the following advantages:

[0076] (1) Solving the problems of large volume, heavy weight and low connection strength: In the present application, the part of the consumable bin used for connection with the handle is made of metal parts. The metal parts can be made thinner, thereby reducing the connection space between the consumable bin and the handle, which is beneficial to reducing the volume of the consumable bin and the whole machine. At the same time, it can improve the connection strength and improve the stability of the connection between the consumable bin and the handle. In addition, it can also reduce the weight of the consumable bin, which is beneficial to the lightweight design of the whole machine.

[0077] (2) Solved the problem of sanitation and convenient consumable bottle removal: In view of the problem that the existing consumable bin is a sealed structure and is prone to liquid accumulation, which is easy to breed bacteria, the present application also sets a through hole at the bottom of the consumable bin for draining liquid (including water or residual skin care products, toothpaste liquid, etc.) to avoid bacterial growth and improve sanitation. Moreover, the through hole can also be used for air intake and exhaust, so that the air pressure inside and outside the consumable bin is consistent, which is convenient for taking out the consumable bottle. In addition, the through hole can also be used as a positioning hole to facilitate the positioning of the automatic liquid discharge device and the charging stand.
