[0023] Reference example Figures 1 to 4 An electric toothbrush shaft comprises a toothbrush shaft 1, the outer wall of the toothbrush shaft 1 is provided with a groove 11, the groove 11 is sleeved with a sealing sleeve 2, one end of the sealing sleeve 2 is provided with an extension portion 21, and is sleeved on the outer wall of the electric toothbrush 4, the extension portion 21 is provided with an inwardly contracted abutment portion 22, and abuts against the outer wall of the electric toothbrush 4, the other end of the sealing sleeve 2 is provided with a hollow column 23, the hollow column 23 is evenly distributed with a plurality of elastic portions 24 with a dot as the axis, and acts on the outer wall of the toothbrush head 5, abutting against the electric toothbrush 4 through the abutment portion 22. The outer wall of the electric toothbrush 4 is prevented from flowing through the outer wall of the electric toothbrush 4 and into the space between the toothbrush shaft 1 and the electric toothbrush 4; the elastic part 24 acts on the outer wall of the toothbrush head 5, so that the hollow column 23 is closely attached to the outer wall of the toothbrush head 5, thereby preventing the liquid medium from flowing through the toothbrush head 5 and entering between the toothbrush shaft 1 and the toothbrush head 5. The above design prevents the liquid medium from entering between the toothbrush head 5 and the electric toothbrush 4, thereby improving the sealing between the electric toothbrush 4 and the toothbrush shaft 1, thereby extending the service life of the electric toothbrush 4;

[0024] It is worth mentioning that an O-ring 3 is provided between the sealing sleeve 2 and the groove 11, and the O-ring 3 improves the connection sealing performance between the sealing sleeve 2 and the groove 11, so that a relatively sealed space is formed between the sealing sleeve 2 and the abutting portion 22, preventing external humid air or liquid medium from entering therein, and further improving the sealing performance between the toothbrush shaft 1 and the electric toothbrush 4;

[0025] It is worth mentioning that the sealing sleeve 2 maintains a distance from the end surface of the electric toothbrush 4, and the extension portion 21 maintains a distance from the outer wall of the electric toothbrush 4. The distance reduces the contact area between the sealing sleeve 2 and the electric toothbrush 4, thereby reducing the loss of the vibration frequency of the electric toothbrush 4 transmitted to the toothbrush shaft 1;

[0026] It is worth mentioning that the shape of the groove 11 is set to be annular, and the annular groove 11 is more closely fitted to the O-ring 3 and the sealing sleeve 2;

[0027] It is worth mentioning that the height of the elastic part 24 is lower than the height of the hollow column 23. The shape of the elastic part 24 is set to be arc-shaped. The height of the elastic part 24 is lower than the hollow column 23, which is convenient for the toothbrush head 5 to enter the hollow column 23 first. The hollow column 23 provides a guide for the toothbrush head 5, and then continue to press down to make the toothbrush head 5 enter the elastic part 24.

[0028] The above design scheme can enable the product to achieve the advantage of good sealing performance.
