Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of daily cleaning, specifically to a toilet brush with a replaceable brush head. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technology, toilets and latrines are generally cleaned using toilet brushes. Typical toilet brushes have bristles fixed to the brush head at the bottom of the handle, using the bristles for cleaning. However, the bristles and brush head, as well as the brush head and handle, cannot be detached. After use, when the toilet brush is placed against a wall or stored on its base, dirt and water residue on the brush head and bristles cannot be thoroughly cleaned, easily leading to bacterial growth and unpleasant odors. Therefore, there is a need for a toilet brush with an easily detachable brush head that can be replaced as needed. Utility Model Content

[0003] One objective of this invention is to provide a toilet brush with a replaceable brush head that solves the aforementioned problems.

[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solutions:

[0005] A toilet brush with a replaceable brush head includes a handle, a brush head, and a control assembly. The handle is detachably connected to the brush head via the control assembly. The handle includes a handle section and a clamping section, with an inclined angle between the handle section and the clamping section. The handle section has a clamping opening for installing the brush head, and a first clamp and a second clamp are provided on both sides of the clamping opening. The first clamp and the second clamp can move relative to each other to change the size of the clamping opening, thereby changing the installation state of the brush head. The handle section is configured as a one-piece hollow tube. The clamping section has a first opening in the extending direction of the handle section, and a second opening communicating with the first opening is provided at the rear end of the handle section. The control assembly includes a switch and a push rod. The push rod enters the handle section through one of the first opening and the second opening for installation. The switch drives the push rod to move back and forth to move the first clamp and / or the second clamp, thereby installing and removing the brush head. The brush handle and brush head are detachably connected via a control component, allowing for immediate installation and removal of the brush head before and after use, preventing the toilet brush from emitting odors when idle. Unlike typical toilet brushes that use a top and bottom cover connection, which allows wastewater and debris to easily enter the brush's cavity through the gap between the top and bottom covers and become difficult to drain, the handle section is made of one-piece injection molding or metal tubing, preventing wastewater and debris from entering the toilet brush and ensuring greater hygiene.

[0006] Preferably, the middle portion of the first chuck is rotatably mounted on the clamping section along the first axis of rotation. The rear end of the first chuck has an elongated groove, and the front end of the push rod is rotatably mounted in the elongated groove. The push rod moves back and forth, causing the first chuck to rotate around the first axis of rotation. During use, the clamping section comes into contact with sewage and dirt. The back-and-forth movement of the push rod changes the position of the first chuck, preventing hands from contacting the sewage and dirt on the surface of the clamping section.

[0007] Preferably, the handle section has a through guide sleeve, which is aligned with the handle section to allow the push rod to pass through and restrict its forward and backward movement. The guide sleeve supports the front end of the push rod, reducing its wobbling.

[0008] Preferably, the guide sleeve and the push rod are connected in a sealed manner. This prevents sewage or dirt contaminated with the clamping section from being carried into the handle section by the push rod.

[0009] Preferably, the control assembly further includes a spring, the push rod is provided with a stop, the spring is installed between the guide sleeve and the stop, the guide sleeve and the stop respectively support the front and rear sides of the spring so as to deform the spring when the push rod moves back and forth.

[0010] Preferably, the clamping section and / or the first clamp are provided with drainage holes. This facilitates the discharge of wastewater entering the clamping section, thereby reducing odor and bacterial growth.

[0011] Preferably, the side of the handle section is provided with a third opening, the push rod is provided with a slot, and the switch passes through the third opening and the slot to connect with the push rod.

[0012] Preferably, the brush head includes a fixed end and a wiping section that are fixedly connected. The fixed end is provided with a protrusion. The size of the protrusion is larger than the size of the clamping opening. When the first clamp and the second clamp move open relative to each other, the protrusion enters the clamping opening. When the first clamp and the second clamp move closer to each other, the protrusion is limited and fixed by the clamping opening.

[0013] Preferably, the first clamp has a bucket-shaped cavity, the clamping opening is located at the edge of the cavity, and the bottom of the cavity has a drain hole to drain water that enters the cavity during use.

[0014] The advantages of this invention are: the control component enables a detachable connection between the brush handle and the brush head, allowing for immediate installation and removal of the brush head before and after use, thus preventing the toilet brush from emitting odors when idle; conventional toilet brushes use an upper and lower cover connection, making it easy for sewage and waste to enter the toilet brush cavity through the installation gap between the upper and lower covers and be difficult to drain, while the handle section is made of one-piece injection molding or metal tubing, preventing sewage and waste from entering the toilet brush and making it more hygienic to use.

[0022] Specifically, the brush handle 1 is made of one-piece injection molding of plastic or made of seamless metal tube. Since the brush handle 1 is cleaned in a direction that is inclined relative to the surface to be cleaned during use, an inclined angle is set between the handle section 3 and the clamping section 4 so that the brush head 2 contacts the surface to be cleaned in a parallel or more closely fitted manner. In this embodiment, the handle section 3 and the clamping section 4 are made of one-piece molding of plastic. Compared with metal tube, the one-piece molding process of plastic is simpler and cheaper in processing the inclined clamping position. Moreover, under this processing method, by reducing or eliminating the installation gap on the brush handle 1, sewage and dirt are prevented from entering the cavity of the brush handle 1.

[0023] Preferably, the middle part of the first chuck 6 is rotatably mounted on the clamping section 4 along the first rotating shaft 12, the rear end of the first chuck 6 is provided with an elongated groove 13, the front end of the push rod 11 is rotatably mounted in the elongated groove 13, and the push rod 11 moves back and forth to drive the first chuck 6 to rotate around the first rotating shaft 12.

[0024] In this embodiment, the first clamp 6 is rotatably mounted on the clamping section 4, and the second clamp 7 is fixedly mounted on the clamping section 4 or a portion of the clamping section 4 forms the second clamping section 4. During use, the relative position or angle between the first clamp 6 and the second clamp 7 is changed by rotating the first clamp 6 to adjust the size of the clamping opening 5, thereby installing and removing the brush head 2. In other embodiments, the first clamp 6 and the second clamp 7 can also be rotatably mounted on the clamping section 4 simultaneously, and the first clamp 6 and the second clamp 7 can be rotated simultaneously by the push rod 11 to change the size of the clamping opening 5.

[0025] Preferably, the handle section 3 is provided with a through guide sleeve 14, and the guide sleeve 14 and the handle section 3 are on the same straight line so that the push rod 11 can pass through and restrict the forward and backward movement direction of the push rod 11. The front end of the push rod 11 passes through the guide sleeve 14 in a close manner to reduce the shaking of the push rod 11 when it moves, so as to maintain the same straight line movement.

[0026] In this embodiment, the guide sleeve 14 and the push rod 11 are connected in a sealed manner. The sealing structure can be, for example, by providing a sealing coating on the guide sleeve 14 or the push rod 11, and providing a sealing ring between the guide sleeve 14 and the push rod 11.

[0027] In the water supply embodiment, the control component also includes a spring 15, a stop block 16 is provided on the push rod 11, the spring 15 is installed between the guide sleeve 14 and the stop block 16, the guide sleeve 14 and the stop block 16 respectively support the front and rear sides of the spring 15 so that the spring 15 deforms when the push rod 11 moves back and forth.

[0028] Preferably, the clamping section 4 and / or the first clamp 6 are provided with drainage holes 17 to facilitate the discharge of sewage entering the clamping section 4, thereby reducing odor and bacterial growth.

[0029] The handle section 3 has a third opening 18 on its side, and the push rod 11 has a slot 19. The switch 10 passes through the third opening 18 and the slot 19 and is connected to the push rod 11.

[0030] In this embodiment, the brush head 2 includes a fixed end 20 and a wiping section 21 that are fixedly connected. The fixed end 20 is provided with a protrusion 22. The size of the protrusion 22 is larger than the size of the clamping opening 5. When the first clamp 6 and the second clamp 7 move open relative to each other, the protrusion 22 enters the clamping opening 5. When the first clamp 6 and the second clamp 7 move closer to each other, the protrusion 22 is limited and fixed by the clamping opening 5. The first clamp 6 is provided with a funnel-shaped cavity 23. The clamping opening 5 is provided at the edge of the cavity 23. The bottom of the cavity 23 is provided with a drain hole 17 to drain the water that enters the cavity 23 during use.

[0031] In the above embodiments, a cover 24 is installed on both the first opening 8 and the second opening 9 to prevent the push rod 11 from disengaging from the brush handle 1.

[0032] During installation, first install the spring 15 on the push rod 11, then insert the push rod 11 and the spring 15 into the handle section 3 along the second opening 9 until the front end of the push rod 11 is connected to the long slot 13 of the first clamp 6.
