Detailed Implementation

[0021] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In addition, the forms of the various structures described in the following embodiments are merely illustrative. The U-shaped toothbrush with fiber bristles involved in this utility model is not limited to the structures described in the following embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0022] This utility model provides a U-shaped toothbrush with fiber bristles, including a fixed box 1 and an electric toothbrush 2. A fan 3 is fixedly installed on the rear side of the fixed box 1, a mounting shell 4 is fixedly installed on the left side of the fixed box 1, and a support shell 5 is fixedly installed on the right side of the fixed box 1. A motor 6 is fixedly installed inside the mounting shell 4. A disinfection component 7 is installed inside the fixed box 1. A water collection shell 8 is provided at the bottom of the disinfection component 7. The water collection shell 8 is used to collect residual water droplets on the electric toothbrush 2. The fan 3 is used to air dry the electric toothbrush 2. The disinfection component 7 is used to sterilize and disinfect the electric toothbrush 2. The motor 6 is used to pull the disinfection component 7 to move vertically.

[0023] Furthermore, an exhaust grille 11 is provided on the front side of the fixed box 1, and an air inlet grille 12 is provided on the rear side of the fixed box 1. An insertion port is provided through the top of the fixed box 1, and a positioning step 13 is provided extending inward from the insertion port. A pull-out port is provided through the front side of the fixed box 1. Sliding strips 81 are fixedly connected to both sides of the water collection shell 8. A strip groove 15 is provided on the inner wall of the fixed box 1. The surface of the sliding strip 81 is slidably connected to the groove wall of the strip groove 15. The user can pull the water collection shell 8 outward from the pull-out port to clean the water collection shell 8.

[0024] Furthermore, the disinfection component 7 includes a receiving shell 71, an ultraviolet lamp 72 installed inside the receiving shell 71, a moving block 73 fixedly connected to the left side of the receiving shell 71, a guide block 74 fixedly connected to the right side of the receiving shell 71, a threaded rod 61 rotatably installed inside the mounting shell 4, the output end of the motor 6 fixedly connected to the bottom end of the threaded rod 61, the moving block 73 threadedly installed on the surface of the threaded rod 61, a guide rod 51 fixedly installed inside the support shell 5, and a guide block 74 sleeved on the surface of the guide rod 51. The guide block 74 and the guide rod 51 form a sliding guide fit along the axis of the guide rod 51. The motor 6 can drive the threaded rod 61 to rotate around its own axis. The rotation of the threaded rod 61 drives the moving block 73 to move upward along the axis of the threaded rod 61. If the motor 6 rotates in the opposite direction, the moving block 73 moves downward along the axis of the threaded rod 61.

[0025] Furthermore, the electric toothbrush 2 includes a body 21, with a U-shaped brush head 22 installed at the bottom of the body 21. The U-shaped brush head 22 is provided with fiber bristles, which are more wear-resistant, have a longer service life, and are better at antibacterial and softness than traditional nylon bristles. A positioning plate 23 is also fixedly connected to the bottom of the body 21, and an extension block 231 is fixedly connected to the top of the positioning plate 23. Two extension blocks 231 are symmetrically arranged, and each of the two extension blocks 231 has an internal groove 232 on one side away from each other. A compression spring 233 is provided in the internal groove 232. One end of the compression spring 233 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the internal groove 232, and the other end is fixedly connected to a docking block 234. The docking block 234 has an arc-shaped block structure. A limit block 14 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed box 1. Two limit blocks 14 are symmetrically arranged, and each of the two limit blocks 14 has a docking groove with an arc-shaped groove structure on one side close to each other. The docking groove matches the docking block 234.

[0026] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: After using the electric toothbrush 2, the user rinses the U-shaped brush head 22 of the electric toothbrush 2 with tap water, and then inserts the U-shaped brush head 22 through the insertion port and into the fixed box 1. During the insertion process, the docking block 234 is first retracted into the built-in groove 232 under the pressure of the limiting block 14. The compression spring 233 is compressed and its elastic force increases under the pressure of the docking block 234. Then, the bottom of the positioning plate 23 and the top of the positioning step 13 abut against each other, the docking block 234 is aligned with the docking groove, and the elastic force of the compression spring 233 drives the docking block 234 into the docking groove. The docking block 234 and the docking groove cooperate to fix the overall position of the electric toothbrush 2.

[0027] Water droplets remaining on the U-shaped brush head 22 are collected in the water collection shell 8 under their own gravity. The fan 3 is turned on, and the air from the fan 3 enters the fixed box 1 through the air inlet grille 12, and then the air is output to the outside through the exhaust grille 11. During the air flow, the U-shaped brush head 22 is dried. After drying, the motor 6 drives the threaded rod 61 to rotate around its own axis. The rotation of the threaded rod 61 drives the moving block 73 to move upward synchronously along the axis of the threaded rod 61. The disinfection component 7 also moves upward synchronously, so that the receiving shell 71 surrounds the U-shaped brush head 22. The ultraviolet light emitted by the ultraviolet lamp 72 sterilizes and disinfects the U-shaped brush head 22.

[0028] Finally, the following points should be noted: First, in the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly, and can be mechanical or electrical connections, or internal connections between two components, or direct connections.
