[0020] In the following description, embodiments of the steel shaft assembly of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] Figure 1-3 This invention illustrates a steel shaft assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention, comprising a main steel shaft 1. The top of the main steel shaft 1 is milled with a sensor mounting position 2, the width of which is 10mm and the milling depth is 2.3mm. A brush head connecting shaft 3 integrally formed with the main steel shaft 1 is disposed on its left side. An arc-shaped groove 5 is machined at the bottom of the brush head connecting shaft 3, and an arc-shaped surface 6 is ground on the left side of the inner cavity of the arc-shaped groove 5. The arc-shaped groove 5 and the arc-shaped surface 6 work together to provide a locking position for subsequent brush head installation, allowing the elastic locking element of the brush head to stably engage within the inner cavity of the arc-shaped groove 5, thereby improving the stability of the brush head after installation and during use. A synchronous cutting surface 4 is milled on the top of the brush head connecting shaft 3, and a sealing element locking position 7 is ground on the left side of the surface of the main steel shaft 1. The right end is provided with a drive shaft 10 integrally formed with it. A first bearing 8 is installed on the right side of the surface of the main steel shaft 1. A stop 9 is fixedly connected to the right side of the surface of the sensor mounting position 2. The first bearing 8 is interference-fitted to the surface of the stop 9. The right end of the drive shaft 10 is provided with a support shaft 12 integrally formed with it. A second bearing 13 is interference-fitted to the surface of the support shaft 12. Through the cooperation of the first bearing 8, the stop 9, the support shaft 12 and the second bearing 13, the main steel shaft 1 is supported, so that the main steel shaft 1 can be stably installed inside the electric toothbrush housing. At the same time, with the cooperation of the first bearing 8 and the second bearing 13, the main steel shaft 1 can be smoothly maintained to maintain a high amplitude swing inside the electric toothbrush housing. The top of the drive shaft 10 is ground with a second synchronous cut surface 11.

[0022] Working Principle: When using this invention, the user uses the first bearing 8, the stop 9, the support shaft 12, and the second bearing 13 to install and support the main steel shaft 1, ensuring its stable installation inside the electric toothbrush housing. This allows the main steel shaft 1 to rotate while maintaining stability. The brush head is installed using the brush head connecting shaft 3 and the synchronous cutting surface 4. The arc-shaped groove 5 and the arc-shaped surface 6 provide a locking position for the brush head's elastic clip, ensuring the stability of the brush head installation. The sealing ring is positioned and installed using the sealing clip 7. The sensor mounting position 2 provides a suitable installation position for the electric toothbrush's pressure sensor. Simultaneously, the use of the drive shaft 10 and the second synchronous cutting surface 11 allows the hollow motor to drive the main steel shaft 1 to rotate, thereby causing the main steel shaft 1 and the brush head to vibrate at high amplitude.

[0023] In summary, this steel shaft assembly, through the cooperation of the main steel shaft 1 and the brush head connecting shaft 3, installs and fixes the brush head. At the same time, with the cooperation of the transmission shaft 10 and the second synchronous cutting surface 11, it can drive the main steel shaft 1 to rotate in conjunction with the hollow motor. Through the setting of the sensor mounting position 2, a suitable mounting position is provided for the pressure sensor, thereby sensing the pressure state of the brush head connecting shaft 3 during use. This achieves the purpose of facilitating sensor installation and ensuring the stability of the overall milled structure.
