[0030] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the utility model clearer, the technical solution of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0031] To facilitate understanding of this embodiment, firstly, an electric toothbrush that is easy to grasp disclosed in an embodiment of the utility model is introduced in detail.
[0032] Example: Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the present application is an electric toothbrush that is easy to grasp, including a brush head 100 and a gripping portion 200 detachably connected to the brush head 100, the outer wall surface of the gripping portion 200 is evenly distributed with a plurality of arcuate grooves 201 along the axial direction, and the arcuate grooves 201 are usually arranged on the side away from the user when the user holds the toothbrush, and the outer wall surface of the arcuate groove 201 is provided with a plurality of protrusions 202, wherein the curvature of the arcuate groove 201 is α, 5 degrees ≤ α ≤ 10 degrees.
[0033] Specifically, the brush head 100 includes a brush head body and bristles arranged at the end of the brush head body away from the holding part 200. The holding part 200 includes a brush handle 204, a motor (not shown in the figure) arranged in the brush handle 204, and a rechargeable battery. A power button is arranged on the outer wall surface of the brush handle 204 near the brush head 100, and a charging interface is also arranged at the end of the brush handle 204 away from the brush head 100.
[0034] When a user uses an electric toothbrush, the thumb is usually used to turn on or off the power button of the electric toothbrush and press the end of the brush head 100 close to the grip 200 or the end of the grip 200 close to the brush head 100 during operation. The other four fingers are usually used to hold the grip 200 of the electric toothbrush. Therefore, the arc groove 201 on the grip 200 can be at least one, preferably four, to maximize the friction between the user's fingers and the electric toothbrush. The arc of the arc groove 201 is set between 150 degrees and 165 degrees, which can meet the use requirements of different people with different arcs of fingers. While ensuring the friction between the fingers and the electric toothbrush, the protrusion 202 can be set as a semicircular protrusion to further improve the comfort of the finger feel. Of course, since the size of these protrusions 202 is small, these protrusions 202 can also be set to other shapes such as triangular protrusions, diamond protrusions, etc., which can also ensure the friction between the fingers and the electric toothbrush and the comfort of the finger feel.
[0035] Through the above structural design, since the arc-shaped groove is similar to the curvature of the user's finger, the user can drop the finger into the arc-shaped groove when using the electric toothbrush, which not only makes the user feel more comfortable, but also increases the friction between the finger and the electric toothbrush, making it easier to grip and less likely to cause the electric toothbrush to slip.
[0036] like Figure 2 As shown, the outer wall surface of the gripping portion 200 is further provided with a groove 203 along the axial direction. The groove 203 is arranged on the side close to the finger when the user holds the electric toothbrush, so as to further increase the friction between the finger and the electric toothbrush.
[0037] Specifically, the groove is set to a V-shaped groove. Of course, the number and shape of the grooves can be changed accordingly according to different usage requirements, such as three, four, etc., such as setting the groove to a U-shape, a semicircle, etc.
[0038] like Figure 3-5 As shown, a straight rod body 2051 is provided on the transmission shaft of the motor, and a rotation slot 101 is provided on the brush head 100. The straight rod body 2051 of the motor is rotated and snapped into the rotation slot 101 to realize the detachable connection between the grip 200 and the brush head 100.
[0039] Specifically, the parts of the straight rod body 2051 located on both sides of the transmission shaft of the motor are respectively the first rod body 2052 and the second rod body 2053 , and the rotating slot 101 includes a slot segment 1011 and a slot segment 1012 connected to the slot segment 1011 .
[0040] During assembly, the holding portion is first inserted into the bottom of the slot section 1011 through the straight rod body 2051, and then rotated to be clamped into the slot section 1012 of the rotating slot 101, thereby achieving a stable connection between the holding portion 200 and the brush head 100. Even when the brush head 100 is in a high-speed vibration state, it is not easy to produce axial relative displacement between the brush head 100 and the transmission shaft, which will not cause damage to the teeth and avoid safety hazards.
[0041] like Figure 3 As shown, the upper and lower wall surfaces of the slot section 1012 near the bottom thereof are relatively provided with two arc-shaped protrusions 1013. When the straight rod body 2051 rotates to the bottom near the slot section 1012, it enters the bottom of the slot section 1012 after overcoming the resistance of the two arc-shaped protrusions 1013 to the straight rod body 2051, thereby forming a restriction on the straight rod body 2051 by the two arc-shaped protrusions 1013, preventing it from radial displacement during operation, and ensuring the stability of the brush head and the grip.
[0042] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the portions of the straight rod body 2051 located on both sides of the transmission shaft of the motor are of different lengths.
[0043] Specifically, the parts of the first rod 2051 located on both sides of the transmission shaft of the motor are respectively the first rod 2052 and the second rod 2053, wherein the length of the first rod 2052 is greater than the length of the second rod 2053, which limits the insertion angle of the straight rod and makes it difficult to install the brush head incorrectly, thereby improving efficiency.
[0044] In summary, the present invention solves the deficiencies in the prior art through the above-mentioned structural design, and has the characteristics of reasonable structure, easy grip, high safety, etc.
[0045] Those skilled in the art can clearly understand that, for the convenience and brevity of description, the specific working process of the electric toothbrush described above can refer to the corresponding process in the prior art and will not be repeated here.
