These oral care products need to be cleaned frequently during use to remove dirt, bacteria, and odors, ensuring oral health. However, there are currently many shortcomings in the cleaning equipment available on the market for these small oral care products.

[0003] On the one hand, traditional cleaning methods are often manual, which is not only inefficient but also makes it difficult to thoroughly clean the tiny crevices and complex surfaces of oral care products, easily leaving residue. Long-term accumulation of this residue can affect the effectiveness and hygiene of oral care products. For example, food debris and bacteria on braces, if not effectively removed, can lead to oral inflammation and other problems.

[0004] On the other hand, while some existing small cleaning machines have solved the cleaning efficiency problem to some extent, they have significant shortcomings in terms of storage. These cleaning machines are usually large and irregularly shaped, taking up a lot of space when not in use, which will cause inconvenience to users whether placed in the bathroom, bedroom or other living spaces. Moreover, due to the inconvenience of storage, the cleaning machines may be bumped or damaged due to careless placement, or their lifespan may be affected by exposure to humid or other adverse environments.

[0005] In conclusion, the market urgently needs a cleaning machine that can effectively clean dental products such as braces and retainers, while also being easy to store, convenient to operate, and safe, to meet users' dual needs for cleaning and storing dental products. Utility Model Content

Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this utility model from the content disclosed in this specification. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a cleaning machine capable of both storage and cleaning, according to a first aspect embodiment of this utility model, includes a first box 1, a second box 2, a partition 3, and a body 5. The first box 1 and the second box 2 fit together to form a hollow structure with open ends. This hollow structure provides a basic spatial framework for the entire cleaning machine's functionality. The open end of the first box 1 is larger than the open end of the second box 2. The partition 3 is a horizontal plate horizontally positioned within the hollow structure. The thickness of the horizontal plate is less than the thickness of the top cover of the body. The partition 3, positioned within the hollow structure, divides the first box 1 and the second box 2 into different areas, which is crucial for achieving reasonable zoning for cleaning and storage functions. During operation, the open end of the second box 2 is fitted onto the outer wall of the body 5, and the partition 3 abuts against the body 5. Items to be cleaned are placed inside the first box 1. During storage, the open end of the first box 1 is fitted onto the body 5, and the body 5 is stored inside the first box 1.

[0031] Usage and working principle:

[0032] This device is mainly used for daily cleaning of dental braces, retainers, and other oral care products. In the cleaning operation mode, the open end of the second housing 2 is fitted onto the outer wall of the main body 5, at which point the partition 3 is in close contact with the main body 5. Items to be cleaned are placed inside the first housing 1. When the cleaning machine starts working, the main body 5 provides power or other necessary support for the cleaning process, transmitting the relevant actions to the items inside the first housing 1 through the partition 3, thereby achieving the cleaning of the items. For example, if the main body 5 has a vibration cleaning mechanism inside, these actions can effectively act on the items inside the first housing 1 through the partition 3, causing dirt to detach from the surface of the items. After the cleaning is completed, it enters the storage mode. At this time, the open end of the first housing 1 is fitted onto the main body 5, thus storing the main body 5 inside the first housing 1. The ingenious design allows the cleaning machine to greatly reduce the space it occupies when not in use, improving space utilization. At the same time, it also prevents the first box 1 from being exposed, ensuring that the first box 1 remains hygienic when stored and avoiding contamination caused by external factors, thus achieving a two-in-one function of cleaning and storage.

[0033] Optionally, both the first box 1 and the second box 2 are wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, forming a conical structure, preferably a frustum shape. This conical structure lowers the center of gravity of the washing machine, making it more stable and less prone to tipping over. In terms of storage and usability, the wider-at-the-top shape facilitates the placement and removal of items. The larger open end makes it easy to put items into the first box 1 for washing, and also helps to store the machine body 5 inside the first box 1 during storage. Furthermore, this shape is more ergonomic and aesthetically pleasing, enhancing the user experience.

[0034] Optionally, the first box 1 and the second box 2 can also be cylindrical structures with the same diameter.

[0035] Optionally, the outer wall of the first box 1 or the second box 2 is provided with multiple anti-slip stripes 4. During the storage process, the anti-slip stripes 4 can significantly increase the friction between the cleaning machine and the contact surface, preventing the cleaning machine from slipping and being damaged due to accidental contact.

[0036] Optionally, the first box 1, the second box 2, and the partition 3 are all made of metal.

[0037] Optionally, the first box 1 and the second box 2 are coaxially arranged. The coaxial box structure can distribute the force evenly around the central axis, reducing the possibility of tilting or tipping due to uneven force.

[0038] Optionally, the height of the first box 1 is greater than the height of the main body 5, and the height of the main body 5 is greater than the height of the second box 2.

[0039] Example 2

[0040] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a retractable and washable cleaning machine includes all the features of Embodiment 1. In addition, a limiting plate 101 is provided on the inner wall of the first housing 1. The limiting plate 101 is positioned along the depth direction of the first housing 1, and its height is less than the depth of the first housing 1. The sum of the height of the limiting plate 101 and the height of the machine body 5 is exactly equal to the depth of the first housing 1. Multiple limiting plates 101 are evenly arrayed on the inner wall of the first housing 1. When stored, each limiting plate 101 abuts against the top wall of the machine body 5. The presence of the limiting plates 101 makes the storage operation more standardized and convenient. Users can easily place the machine body 5 in the correct storage position without additional adjustments or alignment steps. Moreover, this standardized storage method helps extend the service life of the cleaning machine because it ensures that the machine body 5 is in a relatively safe and stable environment when not in use.

[0041] Preferably, there are four limiting plates 101. The four limiting plates 101 are evenly distributed on the inner sidewall of the first box 1, which can limit the body 5 from multiple directions, restrict unnecessary displacement of the body in various directions, and ensure the stability of the body 5 in the storage state.

[0042] Example 3

[0043] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a retractable and washable cleaning machine includes all the features of Embodiment 2, except that the machine body 5 is equipped with a vibration device, which is a miniature vibration motor. The miniature vibration motor acts as the vibration source. During the cleaning process, the miniature vibration motor is activated and generates vibrations, which are transmitted to the first container 1 through the partition 3. The purpose of the vibration is to remove dirt from the surface of the item being cleaned under the impact and friction generated by the vibration. For example, for items with small crevices or complex surface structures, the vibration can penetrate into these hard-to-clean areas, effectively removing dirt and improving the cleaning effect.

[0044] A control switch 6 is located on the exterior of the main body 5. The control switch 6 is electrically connected to the miniature vibrating motor and is used to control the start of the miniature vibrating motor. This circuit is existing technology and will not be described in detail. Users can easily start or stop the vibration cleaning function of the cleaning machine by using the control switch 6 according to their cleaning needs. This simple and convenient operation allows users to easily control the cleaning process and improves the ease of use of the cleaning machine.

[0045] Although the present invention has been described in detail above with general descriptions and specific embodiments, some modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, all such modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the present invention fall within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.

[0046] The terms such as "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and "middle" used in this specification are merely for clarity of description and are not intended to limit the scope of implementation of this utility model. Any changes or adjustments to their relative relationships, without substantially altering the technical content, shall also be considered within the scope of implementation of this utility model.
