Gauze ball 3 is located in flexible sleeve 2 and is fixedly connected the rear end wall of flexible sleeve 2, specifically, gauze ball 3 can be fixedly connected the rear end wall of flexible sleeve 2 by bonding fixed mode. The front end of sliding rod 4 is fixedly connected the rear end wall of flexible sleeve 2, cover 5 is detachably fixedly connected protection cylinder 1 and closes the opening of protection cylinder 1 front end.

[0029] In the production of the infant oral cavity nursing device of the utility model, production is carried out in a medical instrument production clean workshop, so that the inner surface of the flexible sleeve 2, the part of the inner wall of the protection cylinder 1 located in front of the front end of the flexible sleeve 2 and the area surrounded by the cover 5 and the gauze ball 3 can all reach a state close to being sterile.

[0030] The initial state of the infant oral cavity nursing device of the utility model after leaving factory is that: gauze ball 3 is located in protection cylinder 1, flexible sleeve 2 is located in protection cylinder 1, cover 5 is fixedly connected protection cylinder 1 and closes the opening of protection cylinder 1 front end.

[0031] Before the oral cavity nursing device is used to nurse the oral cavity of the infant, first, the parent holds the infant in the arms, and slightly lifts the head of the infant and inclines the head to one side. Then, the cover 5 is detached from the protection cylinder 1, at this time, the opening of the protection cylinder 1 is opened. The parent holds the sliding rod 4 with one hand, and holds the outer wall of the protection cylinder 1 with the other hand, and pushes the protection cylinder 1 backward, the protection cylinder 1 drives the front end of the flexible sleeve 2 to move backward, that is, the sliding rod 4 moves forward relative to the protection cylinder 1. Since the front end of the flexible sleeve 2 is open and is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protection cylinder 1, the rear end of the flexible sleeve 2 is closed, the gauze ball 3 is located in the flexible sleeve 2 and is fixedly connected to the rear end wall of the flexible sleeve 2, the front end of the sliding rod 4 is fixedly connected to the rear end wall of the flexible sleeve 2, when the protection cylinder 1 drives the front end of the flexible sleeve 2 to move backward, that is, the gauze ball 3 and the rear end of the flexible sleeve 2 move forward relative to the protection cylinder 1, at this time, the gauze ball 3 is exposed from the protection cylinder 1, the rear end of the flexible sleeve 2 is exposed from the opening at the front end of the protection cylinder 1, the inner side of the flexible sleeve 2 is turned forward from the front end of the protection cylinder 1, the outer surface of the front part of the sliding rod 4 is wrapped by the flexible sleeve 2, and the rear part of the sliding rod 4 is located in the protection cylinder.

[0032] When the oral cavity nursing device is used to nurse the oral cavity of the infant, the parent holds the rear end of the sliding rod 4, puts the gauze ball 3 exposed from the protection cylinder 1 into warm water to wet the gauze ball 3, and then puts the gauze ball 3 into the oral cavity of the infant to scrub the gums and the tongue of the infant. The oral cavity nursing device can scrub the oral cavity of the infant, and can nurse the oral cavity of the infant.

The connecting plate 11 seals the flexible sleeve 2 in the protective cylinder 1, so that the possibility that the rear end of the flexible sleeve 2 is separated from the rear end of the protective cylinder 1 is reduced, the connecting plate 11 and the protective cylinder 1 can protect the flexible sleeve 2, and the possibility that the protective cylinder 1 is accidentally damaged is reduced.

[0036] In the embodiment, the oral care device for infants further comprises a locking piece, and the locking piece is used for locking the protective cylinder 1 on the sliding rod 4.

[0037] The outer surface of the front part of the sliding rod 4 is wrapped by the flexible sleeve 2, the rear part of the sliding rod 4 is located in the protective cylinder, and before the parent uses the gauze ball 3 to scrub the gums and the tongue of the infant, the protective cylinder 1 can be locked on the sliding rod 4 through the locking piece, so that the protective cylinder 1 cannot move relative to the sliding rod 4, the possibility that the protective cylinder 1 moves on the sliding rod 4 to contact the oral cavity of the infant is reduced during the scrubbing process of the gums and the tongue of the infant, the possibility that the bacteria on the outer surface of the protective cylinder 1 enter the oral cavity of the infant is reduced, and the possibility that the infant is sick is reduced.

[0038] In the embodiment, the rear part of the sliding rod 4 is provided with a groove 41, the locking piece comprises a fixed ring 111 and a plug rod 112, the fixed ring 111 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the connecting plate 11, the fixed ring 111 is arranged around the sliding rod 4, a second through hole 1111 is arranged on the position corresponding to the groove 41 of the fixed ring 111, the second through hole 1111 cooperates with the plug rod 112, and the plug rod 112 cooperates with the groove 41.

[0039] After the protective cylinder 1 is pushed to the rear part of the sliding rod 4, the second through hole 1111 is aligned with the groove 41, and then one end of the plug rod 112 is inserted into the groove 41 after penetrating through the second through hole 1111. At this time, the protective cylinder 1 is locked on the sliding rod 4. In this structure, the locking piece can be used for locking the protective cylinder 1 on the sliding rod 4.

[0040] In the embodiment, the locking piece further comprises a pull rope 113, one end of the pull rope 113 is fixedly connected to the plug rod 112, and the other end of the pull rope 113 is fixedly connected to the fixed ring 111. The pull rope 113 fixes the plug rod 112 on the fixed ring 111, and the possibility that the plug rod 112 is accidentally dropped into the oral cavity of the infant is reduced.

[0041] In the embodiment, the cover 5 comprises a cylinder 52 and an end plate 51, the end plate 51 is fixedly arranged at the front end of the cylinder 52 and closes the front end of the cylinder 52, the cylinder 52 is internally threaded, the front end of the protective cylinder 1 is externally threaded, and the cylinder 52 is screwed on the protective cylinder 1. That is, the cover 5 is a screw cover.

[0042] In the initial state, the cylinder 52 is screwed on the protective cylinder 1, at this time, the cylinder 52 is fixedly connected to the protective cylinder 1, and at this time, the cover 5 is fixedly connected to the protective cylinder 1.

[0043] Before oral care of the infant, the cylinder 52 is unscrewed from the front end of the protective cylinder 1, at this time, the cover 5 can be detached from the front end of the protective cylinder 1. With the structure, the cover 5 is detachably fixedly connected to the protective cylinder 1.
