[0045] The switch device 22 is used to detect the switch state of the flip cover 1. When the flip cover 1 is opened, the main control board 24 can control the ultraviolet disinfection lamp to be turned off and the display light to be turned on; when the flip cover 1 is closed, the main control board 24 can control the display light to be turned off and the ultraviolet disinfection lamp to be turned on. It can be understood that the ultraviolet disinfection lamp does not have to be turned on all the time when the flip cover 1 is closed or every time the flip cover 1 is closed. The ultraviolet disinfection lamp can be automatically turned off after being turned on for a period of time.

[0046] When the flip cover 1 is opened, when the user brushes his teeth in any area of ​​the upper left, lower left, upper right, and lower right in the mouth, the display lights of the corresponding area among the multiple display lights of the light panel 15 are turned on, and the user can intuitively see the feedback of the brushing area, thereby prompting the user to improve the brushing action.

[0047] The power cord 28 can be connected to the main control board 24 . The power cord 28 can be a USB data cable. The USB data cable can be connected to an external power source (socket) to supply power to the electric toothbrush holder 100 .

[0048] In one possible embodiment, a battery may be provided inside the electric toothbrush holder, and the battery may be charged through a power cord, and the battery may power the electric toothbrush holder 100.

[0049] The main control board 24 may be provided with charging contacts 241 , and the electric toothbrush 200 may be charged by contact between the charging contacts 241 and contacts on the electric toothbrush 200 .

[0050] The magnet 27 can be arranged below the main control board 24, and the magnet 27 can correspond to the bottom of the charging contact 241. In this way, the electric toothbrush holder 100 can have a magnetic attraction function, so that the electric toothbrush holder 100 can magnetically charge the matching electric toothbrush 200. The magnet 27 can be a neodymium iron boron magnet.

[0051] The hanging plate 26 may be provided with a hook 261, and the base lower shell 25 may be provided with a hole groove matched with the hook 261. The hanging plate 26 may be fixed on the wall, and the base lower shell 25 may be installed on the hanging plate 26 through the hook 261. In this way, the base 2 is easy to remove from the wall, which can reduce the amount of glue used when the base 2 is repeatedly taken out and installed, and the installation is firm.

[0052] The electric toothbrush 200 and the electric toothbrush holder 100 can be connected to transmit signals by, for example, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), so as to transmit the signals collected by the electric toothbrush 200 to the electric toothbrush holder 100. Bluetooth Low Energy has low power consumption, can run for a long time, has low charging frequency, is inexpensive, and can be connected to a mobile phone via Bluetooth. Bluetooth Low Energy is also conducive to improving redundancy and reducing the possibility of data errors; during long-distance communication, detection and correction can be performed to ensure the correctness of the data.

[0053] The electric toothbrush holder 100 can obtain the working status of the electric toothbrush 200. After the electric toothbrush 200 is turned on, the display module of the electric toothbrush holder 100 is turned on; after the electric toothbrush 200 is turned off, the display module of the electric toothbrush holder 100 is turned off.

[0054] The electric toothbrush 200 is provided with a control program. When the electric toothbrush 200 is started, the timing is automatically started, so that the brushing time can be obtained. The data can be transmitted to the electric toothbrush holder 100 through low-power Bluetooth, and the brushing time can be displayed through the light board 15. No additional operation is required to start or stop the timing, which is convenient to operate.

[0055] The electric toothbrush 200 may be provided with a six-axis inertial measurement unit or a gravity sensor, through which the brushing area and the brushing intensity can be determined. The data can be transmitted to the electric toothbrush holder 100 via low-power Bluetooth, and the brushing intensity can be displayed via the light panel 15.

[0056] The light panel 15 of the electric toothbrush holder 100 displays information such as brushing time, brushing strength, and brushing area, and evaluates the user's brushing, helping the user to develop good brushing habits, thereby ensuring the long-term health of the teeth and oral cavity.

[0057] The toothbrush 200 is turned on, the strip display lights in the four areas of the light panel 15 of the electric toothbrush holder 100 (the flip cover can be closed in this state) are turned on, and the expression display light in the center is also turned on, showing the expression of the startup greeting.

[0058] When the electric toothbrush holder 100 detects that the electric toothbrush 200 is brushing the upper left part of the oral cavity, the upper left bar display light of the electric toothbrush holder 100 remains on. When the upper left part of the oral cavity is confirmed to be cleaned (for example, the brushing time reaches 30 seconds), the upper left part of the base remains on. If the cleaning of the upper left part of the oral cavity is not completed, the upper left bar display light of the electric toothbrush holder 100 goes out. The working logic of the bar display lights at the lower left, upper right, and lower right positions is the same as that of the upper left bar display light.

[0059] After brushing teeth is completed, the electric toothbrush holder 100 scores the brushing effect. If the upper left, lower left, upper right and lower right parts all meet the brushing time requirements and the total brushing time reaches 2 minutes, the central expression display light can show a smiling face. If one condition is not met, the central expression display light can show a crying face.

[0060] You can continue brushing after the central expression light shows a crying face. When the brushing time and position meet the conditions, the central expression light will reflect a smiling face, and brushing is over.

[0061] The electric toothbrush holder 100 displays information while brushing teeth, and provides real-time feedback on the brushing status, so that the user can conveniently read the information without interrupting brushing teeth.

[0062] The electric toothbrush 200 may have a built-in control program that can count down the usage time of the brush head. The default number of times the brush head is used is, for example, 180 times. The user may also be able to set it by himself. When the number of times the brush head is used is reached, the electric toothbrush will not work after being turned on, and a prompt will be given to replace the brush head.

[0063] In at least one possible implementation, the electric toothbrush 200 can be connected to a mobile phone, and the number of times the brush head is used can be set through an application in the mobile phone. When the number of times is reached, the electric toothbrush 200 or the mobile phone sends a reminder. The electric toothbrush holder 100 or the mobile phone sends a reminder to prompt the user to replace the brush head in time.
