Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of oral irrigator technology and relates to an oral irrigator button panel assembly. Background Technology

[0002] In small electronic devices such as water flossers, the way the button panel is fixed directly affects product reliability, user experience, and manufacturing costs. Traditional technologies generally rely on adhesives or mechanical snap-fit ​​structures, but their limitations are increasingly failing to meet the demands of the growing consumer market. Firstly, using adhesives is time-consuming, and once cured, the adhesive layer forms a rigid bond, requiring forceful disassembly during repairs, which can easily scratch the panel or damage the button structure. Secondly, using mechanical snap-fit ​​structures makes the design more complex.

[0003] Therefore, how to provide a button panel assembly for a water flosser that can limit and fix the buttons has become an urgent technical problem to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the problems existing in the related technology, this application aims to provide a water flosser button panel assembly that can ensure that the decorative panel can tightly press the button to achieve limiting and fixation.

[0005] This application is achieved through the following technical solution.

[0006] This technical solution provides a button panel assembly for a water flosser, which is easy to install onto the water flosser housing, including:

[0007] A button bracket, wherein the base plate of the button bracket is disposed inside the water flosser housing, and its mounting plate extends to the outside of the water flosser housing, and the two are fixedly connected by a limiting structure;

[0008] A button, wherein the outer periphery of the button is provided with a lip;

[0009] The decorative panel is embedded inside the button mounting slot of the water flosser housing to form a floating space for limiting the lip edge in conjunction with the stepped groove of the button bracket.

[0010] This technical solution involves setting a lip on the edge of the button and precisely designing the size and shape of the decorative panel and the button. The decorative panel presses against the lip structure of the button, ensuring that the decorative panel can tightly squeeze the button, thereby limiting and fixing the button. This solves the problem of button protrusion. At the same time, the button does not need to be fixed with glue, reducing glue usage and labor time.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that the length of the lip is equal to the length of the stepped groove, or the length of the lip is less than the length of the stepped groove.

[0012] The present invention is further configured such that the stepped groove includes an inner groove and an outer groove, wherein the diameter of the inner groove is smaller than the diameter of the outer groove.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that the interior of the stepped groove has a protrusion, the protrusion has a positioning groove, and the side of the button that is close to the protrusion has a positioning pin corresponding to the positioning groove.

[0014] The present invention is further configured such that the decorative panel has a through hole corresponding to the button, and when the decorative panel abuts against the lip, the pressing end face of the button is coplanar with the outer surface of the decorative panel.

[0015] The present invention is further configured such that when the button is pressed, the protrusion causes the button support to deform within the button's travel stroke.

[0016] The present invention is further provided that the button bracket is provided with a lampshade.

[0017] The present invention is further configured such that there are multiple buttons; when each button is set individually, the positioning groove is set to a “T” shaped groove; when multiple buttons are set together, the positioning groove is set to a “I” shaped groove.

[0018] The present invention is further configured such that the decorative panel is arranged in an arc shape corresponding to the structure of the water flosser housing.

[0019] The present invention is further provided that the button has an external marking.

[0028] The technical solutions of some embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0029] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] This embodiment discloses a button panel assembly for a water flosser, which is easy to install onto the water flosser housing 1, such as... Figures 1-5 As shown, it includes:

[0031] Button bracket 2, the base plate 21 of button bracket 2 is disposed inside the water flosser housing 1, and its mounting plate 22 extends to the outside of the water flosser housing 1. The two are fixedly connected by a limiting structure.

[0032] Button 3, the outer periphery of button 3 is provided with a lip 31;

[0033] Decorative panel 4 is embedded in the button mounting groove 11 of the water flosser housing 1 to cooperate with the stepped groove 23 of the button bracket 2 to form a floating space for limiting the lip 31.

[0034] It should be noted that both the button bracket 2 and the decorative panel 4 are fixed to the water flosser housing 1. The limiting structure is a connecting rod or other connecting structure connecting the base plate 21 and the mounting plate 22. The button 3 is located between the button bracket 2 and the decorative panel 4. The decorative panel 4, together with the stepped groove 23 of the button bracket 2, forms a floating space for limiting the lip 31 of the button 3. When the button 3 is pressed, the button 3 is displaced in the floating space, which squeezes the button bracket 2 to cause deformation, so that the button bracket 2 cooperates to complete the function of the button 3.

[0035] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the length of the lip 31 is equal to the length of the stepped groove 23, or the length of the lip 31 is less than the length of the stepped groove 23.

[0036] It should be noted that the position of button 3 is limited by the decorative panel 4. When the lip 31 is engaged inside the outer groove 232 of the stepped groove 23 and can slide axially, the circumferential position of button 3 is limited by the outer groove 232. When the length of the lip 31 is less than the length of the outer groove 232 of the stepped groove 23, the circumferential position of button 3 is limited by the decorative panel 4.

[0037] like Figure 5 As shown, the stepped groove 23 includes an inner groove 231 and an outer groove 232, and the diameter of the inner groove 231 is smaller than the diameter of the outer groove 232.

[0038] It should be noted that the outer groove 232 has a certain height to form the pressing stroke of button 3.

[0039] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the interior of the stepped groove 23 is provided with a protrusion 24, and a positioning groove 241 is provided on the protrusion 24. The button 3 is provided with a positioning pin 32 corresponding to the positioning groove 241 on the side of the protrusion 24.

[0040] It should be noted that the positioning pin 32, in conjunction with the positioning groove 241, facilitates the installation of the button 3.

[0041] like Figures 2-5 As shown, the decorative panel 4 has a through hole corresponding to the button 3. When the decorative panel 4 abuts against the lip 31, the pressing end face of the button 3 is coplanar with the outer surface of the decorative panel 4.

[0042] It should be noted that after the button 3 is installed, its pressing end face is lower than or coplanar with the outer surface of the decorative panel 4, so as to avoid the button 3 protruding relative to the decorative panel 4.

[0043] like Figures 2-5 As shown, when button 3 is pressed, the protrusion 24 causes the button support 2 to deform within the travel range of button 3.

[0044] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the button bracket 2 is equipped with a lampshade.

[0045] like Figures 1-4 As shown, there are multiple buttons 3. When multiple buttons 3 are set together, the positioning groove 241 is set as a "I" shaped groove and is equipped with a column positioning hole. When the buttons 3 are set individually, the positioning groove 241 is set as a "T" shaped groove and is equipped with a column positioning hole.

[0046] It should be noted that the multiple buttons 3 are specifically configured as buttons with different functions. The multiple buttons 3 are set as an integrated structure. The "I"-shaped groove can accurately restrict their installation direction and limit their circumferential displacement.

[0047] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the decorative panel 4 is configured in an arc shape corresponding to the structure of the water flosser housing 1, and the button 3 has an external marking.

[0048] Working principle: By fixing the button bracket 2 and the decorative panel 4 to the water flosser housing 1, the button 3 is located between the button bracket 2 and the decorative panel 4. The decorative panel 4, together with the stepped groove 23 of the button bracket 2, forms a floating space for limiting the lip 31 of the button 3. When the button 3 is pressed, the button 3 moves in the floating space without the need to fix the button 3 separately. At the same time, when the button 3 moves, it can squeeze the button bracket 2 to deform, so that the button bracket 2 can cooperate to complete the function of the button 3.

[0049] The various embodiments of this application have been described above. These descriptions are exemplary and not exhaustive, nor are they limited to the disclosed embodiments. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments. The terminology used herein is chosen to best explain the principles, practical application, or improvement of the technology in the market, or to enable others skilled in the art to understand the embodiments disclosed herein.
