Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of feminine hygiene and cleaning technology, and more particularly to a feminine hygiene cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] Feminine hygiene devices are hygiene tools specifically designed to clean the vulva and the area around the vaginal opening. Their core function is to assist in daily cleaning and reduce the risk of bacterial growth. These devices are not medical devices and are mainly used for daily hygiene care. Their design and function revolve around gentle cleaning to avoid damaging the natural barriers of the reproductive system.

[0003] Currently, cleaning devices on the market are mainly divided into two categories: handheld irrigators and electric cleaning devices. Handheld irrigators are usually designed with a spray nozzle and require warm water. When using them, you can control the direction and intensity of the water flow, focusing on cleaning the vulva, perianal area, and external vaginal opening. They are especially suitable for use during menstruation, postpartum, or after daily toilet use. Electric cleaning devices come with a water tank and motor, providing a stable pulse water flow or gentle spray. Some products also have temperature adjustment functions, emphasizing a more convenient and comfortable cleaning experience, but they are relatively more expensive.

[0004] However, both handheld and electric rinsing devices share a common problem: due to the unique structure of the body, users cannot easily observe whether the vulva has been thoroughly cleaned. For residual menstrual blood, postpartum discharge, or hard-to-clean areas like folds, it's impossible to visually determine if the area is clean, potentially requiring repeated rinsing and increasing the risk of vulvar skin irritation. Furthermore, if there is an episiotomy wound, mild vulvar inflammation, or eczema, it's necessary to avoid rinsing wounds or sensitive areas, but the inability to visually inspect these areas may lead to accidental contact with the wound, causing pain or infection. This inability to visually assess the cleaning effect not only reduces cleaning efficiency but also increases user discomfort and potential health risks.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a feminine hygiene cleansing device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0039] Currently, cleaning devices on the market are mainly divided into two categories: handheld irrigators and electric cleaning devices. Handheld irrigators are usually designed with a spray nozzle and require warm water. When using them, you can control the direction and intensity of the water flow, focusing on cleaning the vulva, perianal area, and external vaginal opening. They are especially suitable for use during menstruation, postpartum, or after daily toilet use. Electric cleaning devices come with a water tank and motor, providing a stable pulse water flow or gentle spray. Some products also have temperature adjustment functions, emphasizing a more convenient and comfortable cleaning experience, but they are relatively more expensive.

[0040] However, both handheld and electric rinsing devices share a common problem: due to the unique structure of the body, users cannot easily observe whether the vulva has been thoroughly cleaned. For residual menstrual blood, postpartum discharge, or hard-to-clean areas like folds, it's impossible to visually determine if the area is clean, potentially requiring repeated rinsing and increasing the risk of vulvar skin irritation. Furthermore, if there is an episiotomy wound, mild vulvar inflammation, or eczema, it's necessary to avoid rinsing wounds or sensitive areas, but the inability to visually inspect these areas may lead to accidental contact with the wound, causing pain or infection. This inability to visually assess the cleaning effect not only reduces cleaning efficiency but also increases user discomfort and potential health risks.

[0041] Based on this, in order to improve the technical problems existing in related technologies, such as the inconvenience of observing the cleaning effect during the use of feminine hygiene cleaners, which may lead to repeated rinsing, skin irritation or accidental contact with wounds, the embodiments of this application provide the following solutions.

[0042] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 3 This application provides a feminine hygiene cleaner, which includes a cleaning component for containing and spraying liquid;

[0043] Observation component 2, connected to the cleaning component, includes:

[0044] Reflector;

[0045] Lighting components; and

[0046] An adjustable structure is provided, wherein the reflector and the illumination element are connected to the adjustable structure, and the adjustable structure is used to adjust the angle of the reflector and the illumination element.

[0047] The feminine hygiene cleaner provided in this application aims to offer a solution that assists users in clearly observing the area being cleaned. The cleaning component is a device for storing and spraying cleaning liquid onto the target area; its core function is liquid containment and spraying. The observation component 2 is an auxiliary device whose main function is to provide visual feedback, helping users observe the cleaning process and its effects. The observation component 2 provides a reflected image through a reflective element, such as a mirror, allowing users to see areas that are normally difficult to observe directly. Simultaneously, the lighting element provides necessary illumination, ensuring clear observation even in low-light environments. Both components, the reflective element and the lighting element, are connected to an adjustable structure. This structure allows users to adjust the angles of the reflective element and the lighting element according to actual needs, thereby achieving optimal viewing angle and lighting effect. The entire device is designed to improve the convenience, accuracy, and safety of feminine hygiene.

[0048] In this embodiment, the cleaning component includes an end cap 11 with a insertion groove 21; the observation component 2 includes an annular connector 22 with an insertion interface 221 adapted to the insertion groove 21. The observation component 2 is detachably connected to the cleaning component through the cooperation of the insertion interface 221 and the insertion groove 21.

[0049] This design, with a slot 21 on the end cap 11 of the cleaning component and a matching connector 221 on the annular connector 22 of the observation component 2, allows the observation component 2 to be detachably connected to the cleaning component through the engagement of the connector 221 and the slot 21. Specifically, when connection is needed, the user simply aligns the connector 221 on the annular connector 22 with the slot 21 on the end cap 11 and applies appropriate force to securely insert the observation component 2 into the cleaning component. When disassembly is needed, the operation is reversed to easily remove the observation component 2 from the cleaning component. This connection method is not only simple to operate but also provides a secure connection, effectively avoiding the problems of unstable connection or difficult disassembly that may exist in traditional connection methods. Through the above technical solution, the feminine hygiene cleaner achieves a detachable connection between the cleaning component and the observation component 2, significantly improving the flexibility of use and ease of maintenance of the device. Users can easily install or remove observation component 2 according to their actual needs. For example, when the cleaning component needs to be cleaned, disinfected, or the liquid replaced separately, observation component 2 can be quickly removed to avoid unnecessary contamination or damage, thereby extending its service life. At the same time, this detachable design also facilitates the storage and carrying of the device, further enhancing the user experience.

[0050] In this embodiment, the adjustable structure includes a ball head 24 and a ball seat 25, the lighting element is connected to the ball head 24, and the ball head 24 is movably disposed within the ball seat 25.

[0051] In this configuration, the ball head 24 refers to a connecting component with a spherical surface, capable of rotating freely within a defined range. The ball seat 25 refers to a groove or cavity adapted to the spherical surface of the ball head 24, used to accommodate the ball head 24 and provide it with support and rotation space. The illuminator is connected to the ball head 24, allowing it to change its illumination direction as the ball head 24 rotates. The ball head 24 is movably disposed within the ball seat 25, meaning it can rotate at multiple angles within the constraints of the ball seat 25, thus enabling flexible adjustment of the illuminator's angle. The structure of the ball head 24 and ball seat 25 provides greater freedom and precision in adjusting the illuminator's angle. Compared to other possible adjustment structures, the cooperation between the ball head 24 and ball seat 25 provides a smoother and more stable angle adjustment experience, effectively avoiding stuttering or instability during angle adjustment, significantly improving the practicality and user experience of the observation component 2.

[0052] In this embodiment, the adjustable structure includes a snake tube 27, and the reflector is connected to one end of the snake tube 27.

[0053] With this configuration, the serpentine tube 27 is a flexible and bendable tubular structure that can be made of materials such as metal or plastic. By bending the serpentine tube 27, the angle and position of the reflector can be changed, thereby achieving flexible adjustment of the observation area. The reflector is fixedly connected to one end of the serpentine tube 27 so that the observation angle can be adjusted as the serpentine tube 27 bends. By using the serpentine tube 27 as an adjustable structure, the angle of the reflector can be adjusted within a wider range, thereby meeting the observation needs of different users. Compared with the traditional rigid connection method, the serpentine tube 27 has higher flexibility and adjustability, and can better adapt to the human body curve and different usage scenarios.

[0054] In this embodiment, the ball seat 25 is connected to the annular connector 22, and the other end of the snake tube 27 is connected to the ball seat 25.

[0055] This configuration allows the ball seat 25 and the snake tube 27 to be integrated onto the annular connector 22, resulting in a compact structure that facilitates overall installation and adjustment.

[0056] In this embodiment, the cleaning assembly includes: a tank 1; an end cap 11 connected to the tank 1; an extension tube 12 connected to the end cap 11; and a cleaning nozzle 13 connected to the extension tube 12.

[0057] In this configuration, the tank 1 stores the cleaning liquid. It can be made of materials such as plastic, glass, or metal, and can be designed in various shapes and sizes to suit different usage needs and ergonomics. The end cap 11 seals the tank 1 to prevent leakage of the cleaning liquid. Simultaneously, the end cap 11 connects to the extension tube 12, allowing for the smooth discharge of the cleaning liquid. The extension tube 12 is typically made of a flexible material to facilitate adjustment of the angle and position of the cleaning nozzle 13, thereby better meeting the cleaning needs in actual use. The cleaning nozzle 13 is the end-effector of the cleaning assembly, and its design directly affects the cleaning effect and user experience. The cleaning nozzle 13 can be designed in various shapes, such as spray type or water jet type, to adapt to different cleaning needs.

[0058] In this embodiment, a protective cover 14 is also included, which is detachably mounted on the cleaning nozzle 13.

[0059] With this design, the protective cover 14 serves to protect the cleaning nozzle 13 from external contamination, such as dust and bacteria, when not in use, maintaining its cleanliness and reducing the risk of infection to the female private parts during use. Furthermore, the protective cover 14 can be made of easily cleanable and disinfectable materials such as plastic or silicone, allowing users to clean it regularly and ensure its hygiene. The connection between the protective cover 14 and the cleaning nozzle 13 can be varied, such as using a snap-fit ​​connection, a threaded connection, or a magnetic connection. As a preferred embodiment, the protective cover 14 can be made of a transparent or semi-transparent material, allowing users to directly observe the condition of the cleaning nozzle 13 and promptly identify and clean any potential dirt.

[0060] In this embodiment, the reflector is a two-way mirror 28; the illumination element is a flashlight 26.

[0061] In this configuration, the double-sided mirror 28 refers to a mirror with two reflective surfaces that can reflect light from different angles, providing a more comprehensive field of view; the flashlight 26 refers to a portable lighting device that can provide concentrated light to illuminate the observation area. By using the double-sided mirror 28 as a reflector, a wider field of view can be provided, allowing the user to observe the target area from different angles and avoiding blind spots; by using the flashlight 26 as a lighting element, sufficient light can be provided to illuminate the target area, enabling the user to observe details more clearly.

[0062] In this embodiment, the annular connector 22 has a C-shaped structure.

[0063] In this configuration, the annular connector 22 refers to a ring-shaped connecting component with an inner connector 221 for mating with the connector slot 21 on the cleaning component, thus achieving a detachable connection between the observation component 2 and the cleaning component. The C-shaped structure refers to an open annular structure with a certain degree of elasticity, allowing the size of the opening to be adjusted through deformation, thereby achieving a clamping or loosening effect. Specifically, when the C-shaped annular connector 22 mates with the connector slot 21, the elastic deformation of the C-shape allows its inner diameter to be slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the connector slot 21, thereby generating a certain clamping force and ensuring the tightness of the connection. As a preferred embodiment, the opening of the C-shaped structure can be located at the top or bottom of the annular connector 22 for easy operation and adjustment.

[0064] In this embodiment, the observation component 2 further includes a connecting rod 23, and the other end of the snake tube 27 is connected to the ball seat 25 through the connecting rod 23.

[0065] In this configuration, the connecting rod 23 serves as an auxiliary connection structure, primarily extending the connection distance between the coiled tube 27 and the ball seat 25. This allows for more flexible bending and adjustment of the coiled tube 27, avoiding potential interference or limitations that might occur when the coiled tube 27 is directly connected to the ball seat 25. Specifically, the connecting rod 23 can be made of various materials and structural forms. For example, it can be made of a metal or plastic material with a certain degree of elasticity to provide cushioning and support during angle adjustments. Furthermore, the length and diameter of the connecting rod 23 can be adjusted according to actual needs to meet the requirements of different application scenarios. Connecting the coiled tube 27 and the ball seat 25 via the connecting rod 23 effectively prevents wear or loosening of the coiled tube 27 due to direct connection with the ball seat 25 during frequent angle adjustments, thereby improving the overall service life and stability of the observation assembly 2. Simultaneously, the introduction of the connecting rod 23 also makes the adjustment of the coiled tube 27 more flexible, allowing users to more easily adjust the angles of the reflector and illumination components to obtain the best observation effect.

[0066] The working principle of the feminine hygiene cleaner provided in this application embodiment is as follows:

[0067] When using the feminine hygiene cleaner to clean the user's vulva, first unscrew the end cap 11, add cleaning solution inside, and put the end cap 11 back on. Next, install the observation component 2, align the connector 221 on the ring connector 22 with the connector slot 21 on the end cap 11, install the ring connector 22 on the end cap 11, and remove the protective cap 14 at the same time. Invert the canister 1 so that the cleaning nozzle 13 is aimed at the user's vulva. Turn on the flashlight 26, adjust the angle of the ball head 24 in the ball seat 25, adjust the illumination range of the flashlight 26, and adjust the angle of the double-sided mirror 28 through the snake tube 27 so that the user can observe the washable area. Squeeze the canister 1 to wash the vulva, and observe through the double-sided mirror 28 whether the washable area is clean.

[0068] After rinsing, remove the observation component 2 from the end cap 11 via the ring connector 22, and clean the tank 1 and the observation component 2 separately to avoid the problem of large volume making it difficult to clean and easy to accumulate dirt.

[0069] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
