[0027] This utility model proposes a pump body module.
[0028] Please see Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment of this utility model, the pump module includes a housing 1, a water inlet assembly 2, and a drive assembly 3; the housing 1 has a receiving cavity 11 and a first opening 12 and a second opening 13 communicating with the receiving cavity 11; the housing 1 has a first side 14 and a second side 15 disposed opposite to each other along a first direction, the first opening 12 and the second opening 13 being located on the first side 14; the water inlet assembly 2 is located at the first opening 12; the drive assembly 3 includes a driver 31, a drive gear 32, a transmission gear 33, and a piston assembly 34, the driver 31 being used for The drive gear 32 and the transmission gear 33 are driven to rotate, thereby driving the piston assembly 34 to draw water from the water tank into the water inlet assembly 2. The driver 31 is located at the second opening 13, the drive gear 32 is located on the output shaft of the driver 31, and the transmission gear 33 and the piston assembly 34 are sequentially connected to the drive gear 32. The drive gear 32 is located between the transmission gear 33 and the water inlet assembly 2, and the drive gear 32 and the transmission gear 33 are located on the side of the piston assembly 34 near the second opening 13.
[0029] The technical solution of this utility model adopts a drive gear 32 located between the transmission gear 33 and the water inlet assembly 2. By positioning the drive gear 32 and the transmission gear 33 on the side of the piston assembly 34 near the second opening 13, the space occupied by the drive gear 32 and the driver 31 is located on the side of the transmission gear 33 near the first opening 12, thereby reducing the length of the pump body module. The space occupied by the transmission gear 33, the drive gear 32, and the driver 31 is located above the piston assembly 34, making it easier for the driver 31 to drive the drive gear 32, the transmission gear 33, and the piston assembly 34 respectively, thus making more rational use of the space inside the pump body module and improving the problem of the large size of the pump body module.
[0030] In one embodiment, the first direction may be consistent with the vertical direction. The housing 1 may have a receiving cavity 11 for accommodating the drive assembly 3 and a first side 14 and a second side 15 disposed opposite to each other along the first direction. The housing 1 may have a first opening 12 and a second opening 13 disposed at intervals on the first side 14, thereby facilitating the installation of the water inlet assembly 2 and the driver 31. The first opening 12 can be used to install the water inlet assembly 2, and the second opening 13 can be used to install the driver 31, so that the driver 31 and the water inlet assembly 2 are disposed at intervals. The drive gear 32, the transmission gear 33, and the piston assembly 34 may be respectively disposed in the receiving cavity 11. The drive gear 32 is drivenly connected to the output shaft of the driver 31, and the transmission gear 33 and the piston assembly 34 are sequentially drivenly connected to the drive gear 32, thereby facilitating the driver 31 to drive the piston assembly 34 to operate and draw water from the water tank into the water inlet assembly 2. This application positions the drive gear 32 between the transmission gear 33 and the water inlet assembly 2, so that the arrangement direction of the transmission gear 33 and the drive gear 32 along the second direction is consistent with the movement direction of the piston assembly 34. This makes reasonable use of the space on the side of the transmission gear 33 near the water inlet assembly 2 within the receiving cavity 11, thereby avoiding the problem of the drive gear 32 occupying space within the receiving cavity 11 and increasing the length of the housing 1. The driver 31 is located at the second opening 13, meaning that only the output shaft of the driver 31 and the drive gear 32 are installed within the receiving cavity 11, further reducing the installation space occupied by the drive assembly 3 within the receiving cavity 11. This application employs a drive gear 32 and a transmission gear 33 located on the side of the piston assembly 34 near the second opening 13, meaning that both the drive gear 32 and the transmission gear 33 are located above the piston assembly 34. This makes it easier for the driver 31 to drive the piston assembly 34 to work via the drive gear 32 and the transmission gear 33. Furthermore, the piston assembly 34, the drive gear 32, and the transmission gear 33 are arranged along the first direction, thereby making more reasonable use of the space above the piston assembly 34 within the receiving cavity 11 and thus improving the problem of the large size of the pump body module.
[0031] In one embodiment, the rotation axis of the transmission gear 33 and the axis of the first opening 12 have a preset distance, the preset distance being not less than 50 mm and not more than 70 mm.
[0032] In this embodiment, the present application employs a preset distance between the rotation axis of the transmission gear 33 and the axis of the first opening 12 along the second direction. This preset distance can be 55 mm, 60 mm, 65 mm, or 70 mm. Within this range, the present application can effectively adjust the size of the pump module by adjusting the preset distance, while avoiding excessive increase or decrease in the output power of the pump module, thus preventing any impact on the operation of the oral irrigator.
[0033] like Figure 3As shown, in one embodiment, the piston assembly 34 further includes a piston rod 341 and a first connector 342. The piston rod 341 and the first connector 342 are respectively disposed in the receiving cavity 11. One end of the piston rod 341 is movably disposed on the first connector 342. The transmission gear 33 drivesly connects to the other end of the piston rod 341. The first connector 342 communicates with the water inlet assembly 2.
[0034] In this embodiment, the transmission gear 33 can be configured as an eccentric gear. The end of the transmission gear 33 facing away from the drive gear 32 can be provided with a transmission part. The transmission gear 33 is connected to the piston rod 341 via the transmission part, thus facilitating the actuator 31 to drive the drive gear 32 and the transmission gear 33 to reciprocate the piston rod 341. This application also allows one end of the piston rod 341 to be movably mounted on the first connecting member 342, which can be located within the water inlet assembly 2. The transmission gear 33 is connected to the other end of the piston rod 341, and the first connecting member 342 connects to the water inlet assembly 2. This allows the piston rod 341 to reciprocate within the first connecting member 342 under the drive of the actuator 31, thereby enabling the piston rod 341 to more efficiently change the air pressure within the water inlet assembly 2.
[0035] In one embodiment, the piston rod 341 moves within the first connector 342 along a second direction for a distance of not less than 3.5 mm and not more than 4.5 mm.
[0036] In this embodiment, the second direction can be aligned with the length direction of the housing 1. The travel distance of the piston rod 341 within the first connector 342 and along the second direction can be 3.5 mm, 3.6 mm, 3.7 mm, 3.8 mm, 3.9 mm, 4.0 mm, 4.1 mm, 4.2 mm, 4.3 mm, 4.4 mm, and 4.5 mm. Within this range, adjusting the travel distance of the piston rod 341 can effectively adjust the overall volume of the pump module while avoiding excessive increase or decrease in the output power of the pump module, thus affecting the operation of the oral irrigator. By limiting the travel distance of the piston rod 341 to the range of 3.5 mm to 4.5 mm, this application makes it more suitable for pump modules with dimensions ranging from 95-103 mm in length, 35-37 mm in width, and 70-75 mm in height.
[0037] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in one embodiment, the water inlet assembly 2 includes an inlet connector 21, a second connector 22, and an outlet connector 23 that are interconnected. The inlet connector 21 is located at the first opening 12, and the outlet connector 23 is located on the second side 15. The inlet connector 21 is used to connect to the water supply tank. The inlet connector 21, the second connector 22, and the outlet connector 23 are arranged along the first direction. The second connector 22 is located between the inlet connector 21 and the outlet connector 23. The first connector 342 connects to the second connector 22.
[0038] In this embodiment, the first direction can be consistent with the up-down direction. This application uses an inlet connector 21, a second connector 22, and an outlet connector 23 connected sequentially, making it easier for water in the tank to be output to the nozzle assembly (not shown) sequentially via these connectors. This application uses an inlet connector 21 located at the first opening 12, an outlet connector 23 located on the second side 15, and a second connector 22 located between the inlet connector 21 and the outlet connector 23, so that the inlet connector 21, the second connector 22, and the outlet connector 23 are arranged along the first direction. This allows the water inlet assembly 2 to be set to a top-down water inlet method, thereby reducing the width of the pump module.
[0039] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the pump body module further includes a water outlet pipe 4, the top wall of the second connector 22 has a water inlet 221, the bottom wall of the second connector 22 has a water outlet 222, the water inlet connector 21 is connected to the water inlet 221, one end of the water outlet connector 23 is connected to the water outlet 222, and the water outlet pipe 4 is connected to the other end of the water outlet connector 23.
[0040] In this embodiment, to facilitate the delivery of clean water from the inlet assembly 2 to the nozzle assembly, the pump module further includes an outlet pipe 4. One end of the outlet pipe 4 is connected to the outlet connector 23. The inlet connector 21 is connected to the outlet connector 23 via the second connector 22, thereby improving the pumping efficiency of the pump module. This application employs an inlet 221 on the top wall of the second connector 22, with the inlet connector 21 connected to the inlet 221, so that the inlet connector 21 is positioned above the second connector 22. An outlet 222 is located on the bottom wall of the second connector 22, with the outlet connector 23 connected to the outlet 222, so that the outlet connector 23 is positioned below the second connector 22. The water inlet assembly 2 of this application uses a top-down water inlet method, thereby reducing the width of the pump module and allowing water to be delivered to the nozzle assembly more efficiently under gravity.
[0041] like Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the drive assembly 3 further includes a drive shaft 35, the housing 1 includes a first outer shell 16 and a second outer shell 17 connected to each other, the first outer shell 16 and the second outer shell 17 enclosing the receiving cavity 11, the first outer shell 16 has a second opening 13 on the side opposite to the second outer shell 17, the driver 31 is mounted on the first outer shell 16 through the second opening 13, the bottom wall of the second outer shell 17 has a mounting hole 171, the drive shaft 35 is disposed in the mounting hole 171, and the drive gear 33 is disposed on the drive shaft 35.
[0042] In this embodiment, to improve the installation accuracy of the transmission gear 33 and the drive gear 32, this application also includes a transmission shaft 35. The transmission gear 33 is tractively connected to the transmission shaft 35, the drive gear 32 meshes with the transmission gear 33, and the piston rod 341 is tractively connected to the transmission gear 33. To improve the stability of the transmission shaft 35 installed in the first housing 16 and the second housing 17, the first housing 16 and the second housing 17 may also be provided with mounting holes 171 opposite to each other, and the two ends of the transmission shaft 35 are respectively installed in the two mounting holes 171. To facilitate the installation and disassembly of the drive assembly 3 and the water inlet assembly 2, this application adopts a housing 1 comprising two interconnected parts: a first housing 16 and a second housing 17. The first housing 16 is detachably connected to the second housing 17, and the first housing 16 and the second housing 17 enclose a receiving cavity 11.
[0043] like Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the receiving cavity 11 includes a first chamber 111, a second chamber 112, and a third chamber 113 that are interconnected. The first chamber 111, the second chamber 112, and the third chamber 113 are arranged along the second direction. The inner sidewall of the first outer shell 16 is provided with a first protrusion 161 on the side away from the water inlet assembly 2. The inner sidewall of the second outer shell 17 is provided with a second protrusion 172 on the side away from the water inlet assembly 2. The first protrusion 161 and the second protrusion 172 surround to form the first chamber 111. The first chamber 111 is used to install the transmission gear 33 and a part of the piston rod 341. The second chamber 112 is used to install the first connector 342 and another part of the piston rod 341. The third chamber 113 is used to install the water inlet assembly 2.
[0044] In this embodiment, the first protrusion 161, the second protrusion 172, the inner wall of the first outer shell 16, and the inner wall of the second outer shell 17 enclose a first chamber 111. The first chamber 111 has a third opening on the side near the first opening 12. A portion of the piston rod 341 extends into the second chamber 112 through the third opening, thereby facilitating the reciprocating movement of the piston rod 341 within the first connecting member 342. This application employs a first protrusion 161 and a second protrusion 172 respectively on the first outer shell 16 and the second outer shell 17. The first protrusion 161 cooperates with the second protrusion 172 to divide the first chamber 111 and the second chamber 112. The first chamber 111, the second chamber 112, and the third chamber 113 can be used to install the drive assembly 3 and the transmission assembly, respectively, thereby more rationally planning the space within the receiving cavity 11, and more conveniently installing the drive assembly 3 and the transmission assembly within the receiving cavity 11, thereby further reducing the volume of the pump module.

The first housing 16 may be provided with the first connecting portion 162 on both sides along the second direction, and the second housing 17 may be provided with the second connecting portion 173 on both sides along the second direction, so that the vibration generated by the drive assembly 3 can be transmitted from the first housing 1 and the second housing 1 to the buffer member 5 respectively, so that the buffer member 5 can use its own elasticity to offset the vibration.
