DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The technical scheme in the utility model embodiment will be described clearly and completely below in combination with the drawings in the utility model embodiment, and apparently, the described embodiments only are a part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by the ordinary skill in the art without making creative labor belong to the range of the utility model protection.

[0020] As Figs. 1 to 6As shown, a mouth cleaning device for patients with swallowing dysfunction comprises a water tank 100 and a brush head 800. The water tank 100 is provided with a partition 103, which divides the water tank 100 into a sewage chamber 102 and a clean water chamber 104. The sewage chamber 102 and the clean water chamber 104 are both provided with a bottle opening at the top, and the bottle opening is connected with a sealing cover 600. The sewage chamber 102 and the clean water chamber 104 are both connected with an air suction pump 202 and an air inlet pump 201 at the top, and are also connected with a water suction pipe 101 and a water outlet pipe 105. The water suction pipe 101 is connected with the top of the sewage chamber 102, and the water outlet pipe 105 is connected with the bottom of the clean water chamber 104. The brush head 800 comprises a hollow head 801, which is provided with a plurality of bristles 804 on one side, and is provided with a plurality of water spraying holes 806 and suction holes 807. The head 801 is connected with a support pipe 802 at one end, and the support pipe 802 is provided with a water delivery pipe 803. The head 801 is fixedly connected with a cover 805, and the cover 805 is connected with the water spraying holes 806. One end of the water delivery pipe 803 is connected with the cover 805, and the other end of the water delivery pipe 803 is connected with the water outlet pipe 105 and the water suction pipe 101 through a hose 900.

[0021] In use: clean water is poured into the clean water chamber 104 through the bottle opening, and then the sealing cover is screwed tightly. Toothpaste is applied on the bristles 804, and then the toothpaste is evenly applied on the patient's teeth. The air inlet pump 201 is turned on to pump air into the clean water tank 100, and the air pushes the clean water in the clean water chamber 104 into the water outlet pipe 105. The clean water in the water outlet pipe 105 sprays from the water spraying holes 806 to the patient's teeth along the hose 900, the water delivery pipe 803 and the cover 805, while the bristles 804 wash the patient's teeth. Then the air suction pump 202 is turned on to suck the air in the sewage tank 100, so that the sewage tank 100 forms a negative pressure, and the foam in the patient's mouth flows into the sewage tank 100 through the suction holes 807, the hose 900 and the water suction pipe 101. With the continuous brushing, the dirt in the patient's mouth is discharged with the foam. With the continuous washing, the foam in the mouth disappears slowly, and only clean water is left to rinse the patient's mouth. In this way, the process of brushing teeth, sucking foam and rinsing with clean water for the patient is completed.

[0022] An electric box 400 is arranged on one side of the water tank 100, two electromagnetic valves 500 are arranged on the electric box 400, the two electromagnetic valves 500 are communicated with two hoses 900 respectively, a pressure sensor 300 is arranged on the sewage cavity 102 and the clean water cavity 104 respectively, a battery and a controller are arranged in the electric box 400, the controller is an STM32 controller, the pressure sensor 300 is connected with the input end of the controller, the electromagnetic valves 500, the air suction pump 202 and the air inlet pump 201 are connected with the output end of the controller, a start button and a stop button are arranged on the electric box 400, and the battery is used for supplying power for the controller, the electromagnetic valves 500, the air suction pump 202, the air inlet pump 201 and the pressure sensor 300.

[0023] After the controller is added, the utility model can realize automatic brushing, and the working process is as follows: initially, the two electromagnetic valves 500 are in the power-off closed state, after the start button 401 is pressed, the air suction pump 202 and the air inlet pump 201 are started simultaneously, when the pressure sensor 300 on the side of the clean water cavity 104 detects that the pressure reaches 1.5bar, the controller stops the air inlet pump 201, when it is detected that the pressure drops to 1.2bar, the controller starts the air inlet pump 201, so that the air pressure in the clean water cavity 104 is maintained between 1.2bar and 1.5bar, the controller starts and stops the air suction pump 202 in the same way, and the air pressure in the sewage cavity 102 is maintained below 0.8bar; when the oral cavity of the patient is cleaned, the controller controls the electromagnetic valve 500 communicated with the clean water cavity 104 to start for 5 seconds, and controls the electromagnetic valve 500 communicated with the sewage cavity 102 to start for 3 seconds, and the above process is repeated, so that the teeth of the patient are brushed for 5 seconds and sucked for 3 seconds alternately, so that the teeth of the patient are brushed and sucked in the pulse mode, the water pressure for washing the teeth of the patient is ensured, and the oral cavity foam is effectively sucked, so that the oral cavity cleaning effect is better.

[0024] The utility model also comprises an electric toothbrush 700, and the brush head 800 is arranged on the electric toothbrush 700. When the oral cavity of the patient is cleaned, the ultrasonic vibration pulse effect of the electric toothbrush 700 can further promote the discharge of dirt in the teeth, stimulate the oral cavity of the patient, and further improve the oral cavity cleaning effect.

[0025] The water tank 100 is made of transparent PET material. The transparent PET can facilitate the user to observe the liquid level in the clean water cavity 104 and the sewage cavity 102, and is convenient to use.

[0026] The content described in the embodiments of the present specification is only a list of implementation forms of the utility model concept, and the protection scope of the utility model should not be regarded as being limited to the specific forms described in the embodiments, and the protection scope of the utility model also extends to the equivalent technical means that can be thought of by the person skilled in the art according to the utility model concept.
