For those skilled in the art to which the present application belongs, the specific meaning of the above terms in the embodiments of the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0081] The utility model provides a brand -new brush head supply mode, unlike the linkage type uncovering structure of prior art, drive the sliding element at the same time of drawing out the brush handle, take out the brush head from the bottom of brush head cavity through the sliding element, the brush head cavity does not need to have the lifting and movement in the whole process, avoid the multiple brush heads in the brush head cavity to bounce out of the shell in the process of lifting or moving, and the brush handle takes the brush head from the sliding element, does not need to stretch into the brush head cavity to take the brush head, will not contaminate the brush head cavity and other remaining brush heads.

[0082] In order to facilitate the reciprocating sliding of the sliding element below the brush head cavity, the brush head used in the utility model does not have an upwardly protruding portion for holding the brush handle, facilitating the pushing out of the brush head to be used below a stack of brush heads. In some embodiments, the upper and lower surfaces of the brush head are flat surfaces. The brush head is relatively light in weight, so even if a plurality of brush heads are stacked in the brush head cavity, the plurality of brush heads above will not exert excessive pressure on the lowermost brush head, and the lowermost brush head can still be easily pushed out of the shell. In particular, a complex brush head lifting mechanism does not need to be designed, and the brush head to be used can be easily taken out below a stack of brush heads.

[0083] As Figure 11 And Figure 12As shown, the brush head used in the embodiment is a disposable brush head, and the specific brush head structure is as follows: the brush head 4 comprises a support part 41 and a cleaning part 42, the support part 41 is connected to the upper surface of the cleaning part 42; the middle part of the support part 41 is provided with a support part through hole 411, and the cleaning part 42 is provided with a cleaning part through hole 421 or a cleaning part 42 groove corresponding to the position of the support part through hole 411. The cleaning part usually carries a cleaning agent, and the disposable brush head does not need to be additionally configured with a toilet cleaner. The support part 41 can be made of relatively hard materials to provide strong support and clamping strength, such as plastic materials. The support part 41 can be circular, square, oval, triangular, quadrilateral or other irregular structures, and similarly, the structure of the cleaning part 42 can also be circular, square, oval, triangular, quadrilateral or other irregular structures. Taking the circular structure of the support part 41 and the cleaning part 42 as an example, the diameter of the support part 41 is smaller than the diameter of the cleaning part 42, the support part 41 is centrally installed on the cleaning part 42, so that the edge of the support part 41 and the edge of the cleaning part 42 maintain a certain distance, avoiding the edge of the support part 41 from damaging the enamel of the toilet when the brush head 4 is used to clean the toilet. The thickness of the support part 41 is smaller than the thickness of the cleaning part 42, and the thickness is generally not more than 5mm, the support part 41 can be directly arranged on the upper surface of the cylindrical cleaning part 42, or a support part mounting groove can be arranged on the upper surface of the cleaning part 42, and the support part 41 is fixed in the support part mounting groove, so that the upper surface of the support part 41 does not exceed the upper surface of the cleaning part 42, facilitating the pushing out or extraction of a certain brush head 4 from the bottom of a pile of brush heads 4. The shape of the support part through hole 411 can be circular, and of course other shapes can also be designed, as long as the brush handle can not easily separate from the support part through hole 411 after being inserted into the support part through hole 411. The cleaning part through hole 421 refers to a through hole structure arranged in the middle of the cleaning part 42, and the cleaning part 42 groove refers to a structure that is recessed downward from the upper surface of the cleaning part 42 but does not penetrate to the bottom surface of the cleaning part 42.

[0084] In order to facilitate the reading of the reader, the first direction and the second direction appearing in the text are explained here, the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other, when the toilet brush barrel in the application is hung on the wall or placed on the ground close to the wall, the direction perpendicular to the wall is the first direction, and the first direction is also the thickness direction of the shell 1; the second direction is parallel to the wall, and the second direction is also the width direction of the shell 1. In addition, the direction of the brush handle inserted into the toilet brush barrel, the depth direction of the brush handle channel and the length extension direction of the brush head cavity 2 are all the height direction of the shell 1.

[0085] Please refer to Figures 1-10 The toilet brush barrel of the embodiment comprises:

[0086] a shell 1;

[0087] The brush head cavity 2 is disposed inside the housing 1. The upper end of the brush head cavity 2 is provided with a brush head inlet 21 and the lower end is provided with a brush head outlet 22. Multiple brush heads 4 can be vertically stacked inside the brush head cavity 2.

[0088] The brush handle cavity 3 is disposed within the housing 1. A brush head ejection mechanism is provided within the brush handle cavity 3. The brush head ejection mechanism includes a swing arm 32, a sliding member 33, and an elastic member 34. The sliding member 33 is slidably connected to the housing 1 and located below the brush head cavity 2. A brush head placement area 331 and a brush head lifting area 332 are arranged side-by-side along a first direction on the upper surface of the sliding member 33. The placement area is used to receive the brush head 4 falling from the brush head cavity 2, and the brush head lifting area 332 is used to lift the brush head. The remaining brush head 4 is inside the head cavity 2. The upper end of the swing arm 32 is hinged to the housing 1, and the lower end of the swing arm 32 is movably connected to the rear end of the sliding member 33. The two ends of the elastic member 34 are connected between the sliding member 33 and the housing 1. A brush handle channel 35 is provided between the swing arm 32 and the brush head cavity 2. The brush handle channel 35 allows the brush handle 6 to be inserted or pulled out, driving the swing arm 32 to swing so that the sliding member 33 slides to push out or store the brush head placement area 331 into the housing 1.

[0089] like Figure 8 As shown, in this embodiment, the brush head cavity 2 has a cylindrical cavity structure that fits the circular brush head 4, allowing the vertically stacked brush heads 4 to be stably placed inside the brush head cavity 2. In some embodiments, the brush head cavity 2 is also cylindrical in shape. The brush head cavity 2 extends vertically within the housing 1, and the brush heads 4 stored inside the brush head cavity 2 will automatically fall out from the brush head outlet 22 under their own weight. The user stores multiple brush heads 4 into the brush head cavity 2 through the brush head inlet 21.

[0090] The slider 33 slides back and forth below the brush head cavity 2. The depth of the brush head placement area 331 on the slider 33 is adapted to the thickness of a single brush head 4. That is, the lowermost brush head 4 in the brush head cavity 2 falls into the brush head placement area 331. The upper surface of the brush head 4 in the brush head placement area 331 is flush with the upper surface of the brush head placement area 331, or it can be flush with the upper surface of the brush head support area 332. The brush head 4 in the brush head cavity 2 falls from the brush head outlet 22 into the brush head placement area 331. The slider 33 slides out of the housing 1, sending the brush head 4 in the brush head placement area 331 out of the housing 1. The brush head support area 332 on the slider 33 supports the bottom of the remaining brush head 4 during the sliding process. Of course, in other embodiments, the depth of the brush head placement area 331 may be adapted to the thickness of the multiple brush heads 4, that is, the depth of the brush head placement area 331 is an integer multiple of the thickness of the brush head 4, so as to meet the situation where multiple brush heads 4 need to be used in a single cleaning process.

[0091] The swing arm 32 is hinged to rotate around the shell 1 to push the sliding piece 33 out of or into the shell 1. In the embodiment, when the brush handle 6 is inserted into the brush handle channel 35 and the sliding piece 33 is retracted into the shell 1, the elastic piece 34 is tensioned to store energy. When the brush handle 6 is pulled out of the brush handle channel 35, the elasticity of the elastic piece 34 is released, and the sliding piece 33 is pushed out of the shell 1 by inertia, completing the use of the toilet brush barrel.

[0092] The toilet brush barrel in the application can place multiple brush heads 4 in the brush head cavity 2 during use, which can meet the multiple uses of the brush handle and provide users with a convenient cleaning experience. In addition, the brush heads 4 are taken from the bottom of the shell 1, and the brush heads 4 in the brush head cavity 2 remain stable after the brush heads 4 are pushed out of the brush head placement area 331 each time. After the brush handle 6 is pulled out, the swing arm 32 drives the sliding piece 33 to slide under the elastic force of the elastic piece 34, so that the brush head placement area 331 containing the brush heads 4 is pushed out of the shell 1, the brush handle 6 takes the brush heads 4 from the brush head placement area 331, and the remaining brush heads 4 in the brush head cavity 2 are not exposed to avoid direct contact with the brush handle, which ensures the cleaning effect and hygiene standard of the improved toilet brush barrel. The brush head lifting area 332 on the sliding piece 33 can lift the remaining brush heads 4 in the brush head cavity 2 during the sliding of the sliding piece 33, and the brush heads 4 can smoothly fall after the brush head placement area 331 is retracted into the shell 1, which avoids the problem that the brush heads 4 are stuck or cannot be normally pushed out. The design of the toilet brush barrel improves the convenience and hygiene while ensuring the stability of the structure, which effectively improves the cleaning experience of users.

[0093] In some embodiments, the sliding piece 33 slides horizontally under the brush head cavity 2 in the first direction. After the toilet brush barrel is hung on the wall, the sliding piece 33 slides out of the shell 1 away from the wall, and the user can easily take the brush heads 4 from the brush head placement area 331 from the side or front of the toilet brush barrel. After the sliding piece 33 slides out, the brush head placement area 331 is closer to the user, and the user can more intuitively see the brush heads 4 in the brush head placement area 331, which reduces the bending action and makes it easier to take the brush heads 4.

[0094] In some embodiments, when the brush head placement area 331 is pushed out of the shell 1, at least a part of the brush head lifting area 332 is shielded below the brush head outlet 22. During the process of pushing the brush head placement area 331 out of the shell 1, at least a part of the brush head lifting area 332 is shielded below the brush head outlet 22 until it is completely pushed out, so as to ensure that the brush head 4 in the brush head cavity 2 does not get stuck on the sliding piece 33 due to its own gravity during the pushing process of the brush head placement area 331; it can also avoid the brush head 4 in the brush head cavity 2 from falling into the shell 1 after the brush head placement area 331 is completely pushed out, so as to ensure that the brush head 4 in the brush head cavity 2 is neatly stacked, and to avoid waste or confusion. The design of the brush head lifting area 332 makes the pushing and storing actions of the brush head placement area 331 more smooth, and the user does not need to worry about the problem of the brush head 4 being stuck or falling, and the operation is more easy and convenient, which improves the use experience. At the same time, it avoids the sliding piece 33 from being stuck or the structure from being damaged due to the movement of the brush head 4, and enhances the durability and reliability of the product.

[0095] As shown in Figures 7-9 some embodiments, the swing arm 32 includes a hinge part 323 and a first arm 321 and a second arm 322 arranged at intervals, and the hinge part 323 is connected to the upper sides of the first arm 321 and the second arm 322.

[0096] The first arm 321 and the second arm 322 are movably connected to the two sides of the sliding piece 33, respectively.

[0097] The first arm 321 and the second arm 322 can be arranged to embrace the two sides of the sliding piece 33, so that the sliding piece 33 is more evenly stressed during movement, avoiding the problem of tilting or jamming caused by unilateral stress, and improving the stability and reliability of the overall structure. It reduces the shaking or shaking caused by uneven unilateral stress, and ensures the smoothness of the process of pushing out and storing the brush head 4. The upper ends of the first arm 321 and the second arm 322 can be provided with a cross bar 324, and the hinge part 323 is connected to the cross bar 324, preferably at the center of the cross bar 324, so that the stress distribution of the swing arm 32 is more reasonable, avoiding local stress concentration caused by wear or damage, and prolonging the service life of the product.

[0098] As shown in Figures 7-9 some more preferred embodiments, the lower end of the first arm 321 is provided with a first guide groove 3211, the lower end of the second arm 322 is provided with a second guide groove 3221, the two sides of the sliding piece 33 are respectively provided with a first guide column 334 and a second guide column 335, the first guide column 334 is arranged in the first guide groove 3211 and can slide inside along the groove wall, and the second guide column 335 is arranged in the second guide groove 3221 and can slide inside along the groove wall.

[0099] The upper end of the swing arm 32 is hinged to the inner wall of the housing 1, specifically the inner wall of the upper end surface of the housing 1. During the process of the swing arm 32 swinging and the sliding piece 33 being pushed out of the housing 1, the lower end of the first arm 321 and the lower end of the second arm 322 will draw an arc-shaped path in the brush handle cavity 3. In order to keep the sliding piece 33 sliding horizontally in the first direction, the first guide groove 3211 and the second guide groove 3221 are arranged, so that the two guide columns of the sliding piece 33 can slide along the groove walls of the two guide grooves, ensuring the sliding stability of the sliding piece 33. Moreover, the sliding trajectory of the sliding piece 33 is limited by the guide grooves, avoiding the sliding piece 33 from deviating or shaking during the movement process, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the actions of the brush head 4 being pushed out and stored. The design of the guide columns makes the contact between the sliding piece 33 and the swing arm 32 more smooth, reducing the friction and wear during the movement process, prolonging the service life of the swing arm 32 and the sliding piece 33, and reducing the maintenance requirements.

[0100] Taking the structure of the first arm 321 as an example, the sliding path of the first guide column 334 in the first guide groove 3211 falls within the projection of the first guide groove 3211 along the second direction, and the initial position and the final position of the first guide column 334 sliding in the first guide groove 3211 are located at the highest point and the lowest point of the first guide groove 3211. The groove wall of the first guide groove 3211 and the first guide column 334 is an arc-shaped structure. In some embodiments, the first guide groove 3211 also includes a contour wall not in contact with the first guide column 334, connecting between the highest point and the lowest point of the first guide groove 3211. The first guide groove 3211 as a whole is in the shape of D, and the arc-shaped segment of the D shape and the first guide column 334 have a guiding effect. The structure of the second arm 322 is the same as that of the first arm 321.

[0101] As Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, in some more preferred embodiments, the upper surface of the bottom of the housing 1 is provided with a first limiting groove 15 and a second limiting groove 16 spaced apart. When the brush handle is inserted into the brush handle channel 35, the first arm 321 and the second arm 322 swing until their lower ends abut against the first limiting groove 15 and the second limiting groove 16, respectively. When the brush handle is pulled out of the brush handle channel 35, the first arm 321 and the second arm 322 disengage from the first limiting groove 15 and the second limiting groove 16. The first limiting groove 15 and the second limiting groove 16 are groove-shaped structures with a recessed upper surface on the bottom of the housing 1. When the swing arm 32 drives the sliding member 33 to fully retract it into the housing 1, the bottom of the first arm 321 slides into the first limiting groove 15 and is restricted by the first limiting groove 15. Similarly, the bottom of the second arm 322 slides into the second limiting groove 16 and is restricted by the second limiting groove 16. This allows for precise positioning of the slider 33, ensuring the brush head placement area 331 is fully retracted and preventing excessive inward movement of the slider 33, which could impact the inner wall of the housing 1, thus improving the overall structural stability. When the first arm 321 and the second arm 322 abut against the first limiting groove 15 and the second limiting groove 16, the user can clearly feel that the slider 33 is in place, providing clear operational feedback and enhancing the feel and experience of use. The shape of the first limiting groove 15 matches the bottom of the first arm 321, and the shape of the second limiting groove 16 also matches the bottom of the second arm 322. In this embodiment, the shapes of the first arm 321 and the second arm 322 are the same, and the shapes of the first limiting groove 15 and the second limiting groove 16 are also the same.

[0102] like Figure 9 As shown, in some embodiments, the hinge portion 323 has a brush handle guide surface 3231 on the side facing the brush head cavity 2. After the brush handle is disengaged from the brush handle cavity 3, the swing arm 32 swings towards the brush head cavity 2, compressing the space of the brush handle channel 35. The hinge portion 323 obliquely blocks the brush handle channel 35. After the brush handle is used, when it needs to be inserted into the brush handle channel 35, the brush handle guide surface 3231 on the hinge portion 323 allows the brush handle to be smoothly inserted into the housing 1, reducing friction and resistance between the brush handle and the hinge portion 323, and improving the convenience and smoothness of operation. Moreover, the design of the brush handle guide surface 3231 ensures that the brush handle always maintains the correct movement trajectory during insertion, avoiding brush handle deviation or jamming, and also preventing unstable movement of the swing arm 32 due to brush handle shaking or deviation, thus enhancing the stability of the overall structure.

[0103] In some preferred embodiments, the brush handle guide surface 3231 is a groove structure provided on the hinge portion 323, and the depth of the groove structure gradually decreases from the outside of the housing 1 to the inside of the housing 1 along the length direction of the hinge portion 323. The gradual decrease in groove depth from the outside of the housing 1 to the inside of the housing 1 guides the brush handle insertion gradually, allowing the brush handle to gradually conform to the hinge portion 323 as it enters the housing 1, reducing sudden resistance and improving the smoothness of operation. The gradual design of the groove structure ensures that the brush handle gradually contacts the hinge portion 323 during insertion, avoiding sudden collisions or friction between the brush handle and the hinge portion 323, reducing wear, and extending the service life of the brush handle and the hinge portion 323.

[0104] In some embodiments, the elastic element 34 is a tension spring or a coil spring. The elastic element 34 is disposed below the slider 33, with one end connected to the rear end of the slider 33 and the other end connected to the front end of the housing 1. The rear end of the slider 33 refers to the side of the slider 33 facing the wall when the toilet brush bucket is hung or placed against the wall. The front end of the housing 1 refers to the end face of the housing 1 away from the wall. All descriptions of the front and rear directions in this application can refer to the conventions in this embodiment. The elasticity of the elastic element 34 makes the sliding action of the slider 33 more stable and smooth, avoiding jamming or shaking during movement, and ensuring the smooth extension and retraction of the brush head 4. The tension of the elastic element 34 ensures that the slider 33 remains tightly connected to the housing 1 during movement, preventing the slider 33 from shifting or detaching due to external forces or vibrations, thus enhancing the stability of the overall structure. The design of tension springs or coil springs features high durability and elastic recovery, enabling them to maintain stable performance during long-term use and extending the product's lifespan.

[0105] like Figures 1-4 As shown, in some embodiments, the brush head cavity 2 and the brush handle cavity 3 are arranged along a first direction. The alignment of the brush head cavity 2 and the brush handle cavity 3 in the same direction allows the brush handle to directly act on the brush head ejection mechanism when inserted or removed, reducing operational steps and improving the smoothness and efficiency of operation. Furthermore, users can easily access and replace the brush head 4, enhancing ease of use.

[0106] like Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown in some embodiments, the upper surface of the shell 1 is provided with a first opening 11, and a multipurpose cavity 111 is arranged below the first opening 11, which is used to accommodate a non-disposable toilet brush 5. The design of the multipurpose cavity 111 enables the toilet brush barrel to not only store disposable brush heads 4, but also accommodate non-disposable toilet brushes 5, meeting the needs of users for different types of brushes and improving the functional diversity of the product. The multipurpose cavity 111 and the disposable brush head cavity 2 are integrated in the same shell 1, making full use of the internal space of the shell 1 and avoiding the additional occupation of other areas of the bathroom, which is particularly suitable for bathroom environments with limited space. By integrating the multipurpose cavity 111, users can meet multiple needs in the same product, reducing the trouble of additional purchase and storage of other brushes, and improving the user experience and satisfaction.

[0107] As shown in some embodiments, Figure 2 , Figure 3 In some more preferred embodiments, the multipurpose cavity 111 and the brush handle cavity 3 are arranged in a second direction. Arranging the multipurpose cavity 111 and the brush handle cavity 3 in the second direction reduces the interference between the disposable function area and the multipurpose function area, making it more smooth for users to take non-disposable toilet brushes 5 or operate the brush handle, improving the smoothness and efficiency of operation. Moreover, the complete separation design between the multipurpose cavity 111 and the brush head cavity 2 and the brush handle cavity 3 can also prevent the non-disposable toilet brush 5 from contaminating the brush head cavity 2, the brush handle cavity 3, the brush handle in the brush handle cavity 3, and the disposable brush head 4 in the brush head cavity 2, improving the cleanliness of the toilet brush barrel.

[0108] As shown in some embodiments, Figure 2 , Figure 3 In some embodiments, the upper surface of the shell 1 is provided with a second opening 12, and a dust cover 121 is arranged at the second opening 12, which can be opened and closed. The brush head cavity 2 is arranged below the second opening 12. The design of the dust cover 121 can effectively prevent dust, dirt or other impurities from entering the brush head cavity 2, maintaining the cleanliness of the disposable brush heads 4 in the brush head cavity 2. When the disposable brush heads 4 in the brush head cavity 2 are used up, the user can open the dust cover 121 of the second opening 12 to replenish new disposable brush heads 4 into the brush head cavity 2.

[0109] As shown in some embodiments, Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown in the drawings, in some embodiments, a third opening 13 is formed on the upper surface of the shell 1, the size of the third opening 13 is matched with the size of the brush handle, and the third opening 13 is located above the brush handle passage 35. The third opening 13 is located above the brush handle passage 35, which can guide the brush handle to be accurately inserted into the brush handle passage 35, avoiding the situation that the brush handle is offset or stuck when being inserted, and ensuring that the operation is more accurate and reliable. The size of the third opening 13 is matched with the brush handle, which can effectively reduce the dust, dirt or other impurities into the brush handle passage 35, and keep the inside of the brush handle cavity 3 clean.

[0110] As shown in the drawings, Figure 3 In some embodiments, a fourth opening 14 is formed on the front surface of the shell 1, and the fourth opening 14 is matched with the sliding piece 33. The design of the fourth opening 14 makes the sliding piece 33 accurately aligned with the opening when sliding out or being stored, so that the sliding piece 33 is closely attached to the shell 1 during movement, avoiding the structural instability caused by the shaking or offset of the sliding piece 33, and enhancing the stability of the overall structure.
