Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of toothbrush technology, and in particular to a toothbrush with a storage cavity. Background Technology

[0002] As an important tool for personal oral care, the history of toothbrushes can be traced back thousands of years. Early people used various natural materials such as willow branches and animal bristles to clean their teeth. It wasn't until the 15th century, during the Ming Dynasty in China, that people began to fix animal bristles (usually pig bristles) to handles made of bamboo or bone. This is considered the prototype of the modern toothbrush. However, it wasn't until 1938 that the invention of nylon fibers ushered in a new era for toothbrushes. DuPont developed the first nylon toothbrush, which quickly became popular due to its soft and even properties.

[0003] Most existing toothbrushes adopt an integrated design, which means that the brush head and handle are fixed together and cannot be separated. While this design is convenient for daily use, it has certain limitations when carrying them out. Since the handle does not have a built-in storage cavity, users cannot store the brush head inside the handle, causing the brush head to be exposed and easily contaminated or damaged. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main purpose of this invention is to provide a toothbrush with a storage cavity, which aims to solve the technical problem that users cannot store the brush head inside the handle, resulting in the brush head being exposed and easily contaminated or damaged.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention proposes a toothbrush with a storage cavity, including a handle, a limiting window on the right side of the handle, a storage cavity on the handle, a brush head inside the storage cavity, and a storage component on the handle for easy storage of the brush head.

[0006] The storage assembly includes a limiting cavity, a positioning groove, a movable plate, a limiting groove, a limiting rod, and a telescopic spring. The limiting cavity is formed on the brush handle, the positioning groove is formed on the limiting window and communicates with the interior of the limiting cavity, the movable plate is slidably connected to the inner walls of the limiting cavity and the positioning groove, the limiting groove is formed at the bottom of the movable plate, the limiting rod is located on the inner bottom wall of the limiting cavity and extends to the interior of the limiting groove for slidable connection, and the telescopic spring is located between the inner wall of the limiting cavity and the bottom of the movable plate and is sleeved on the outer surface of the limiting rod.

[0007] Optionally, the top of the brush handle has an opening that communicates with the storage cavity.

[0008] Optionally, the size of the movable plate is adapted to the size of the limiting cavity.

[0009] Optionally, the top of the movable plate abuts against the inner top wall of the positioning groove.

[0010] Optionally, the size of the limiting groove is adapted to the size of the limiting rod.

[0011] Optionally, the bottom of the brush handle is provided with a through hole, and the number of through holes is multiple.

[0012] The technical solution of this utility model has the following beneficial effects: When the user needs to store the used brush head, first press the moving plate down. Through the limiting cavity and positioning groove, the top of the moving plate moves to be flush with the inner bottom wall of the limiting window. Then, rotate the brush head 180 degrees and place it into the storage cavity. Then, release the moving plate. Through the reaction force of the telescopic spring and the limiting rod, the moving plate is reset and abuts against the inner top wall of the positioning groove, thus making it easy to store the brush head. The operation is simple and convenient. Attached Figure Description

[0024] This invention proposes a toothbrush with a storage cavity.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the toothbrush with a storage cavity includes a handle 1, a limiting window is provided on the right side of the handle 1, a storage cavity 2 is provided on the handle 1, a brush head 3 is provided inside the storage cavity 2, and a storage component 4 is provided on the handle 1 to facilitate the storage of the brush head 3.

[0026] The storage component 4 includes a limiting cavity 41, a positioning groove 42, a moving plate 43, a limiting groove 44, a limiting rod 45, and a telescopic spring 46. The limiting cavity 41 is opened on the brush handle 1, the positioning groove 42 is opened on the limiting window and is connected to the inside of the limiting cavity 41. The moving plate 43 is slidably connected to the inner walls of the limiting cavity 41 and the positioning groove 42. The limiting groove 44 is opened at the bottom of the moving plate 43. The limiting rod 45 is located on the inner bottom wall of the limiting cavity 41 and extends to the inside of the limiting groove 44 for slidable connection. The telescopic spring 46 is located between the inner wall of the limiting cavity 41 and the bottom of the moving plate 43 and is sleeved on the outer surface of the limiting rod 45.

[0027] Specifically, the top of the brush handle 1 has an opening that is connected to the storage cavity 2. The opening and the moving plate 43 limit the rotation and unfolding of the brush head 3, making it easy for the user to fix the brush head 3 stably when brushing their teeth.

[0028] Specifically, the size of the movable plate 43 is matched with the size of the limiting cavity 41. The limiting cavity 41 plays a limiting role for the movable plate 43, making it convenient for the movable plate 43 to move up and down for adjustment.

[0029] Specifically, the top of the movable plate 43 abuts against the inner top wall of the positioning groove 42, and the inner top wall of the positioning groove 42 plays a limiting role for the movable plate 43.

[0030] Specifically, the size of the limiting groove 44 is matched with the size of the limiting rod 45. The limiting groove 44 facilitates the limiting rod 45 to play a stable limiting role on the moving plate 43. At the same time, the limiting rod 45 also facilitates the limiting role on the telescopic spring 46.

[0031] Specifically, the bottom of the brush handle 1 has a through hole 5. There are multiple through holes 5. When the user finishes using the toothbrush and puts the brush head 3 away, the through holes 5 facilitate the water stains on the brush head 3 to flow out from the inside of the brush handle 1.

[0032] Specifically, the working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows:

[0033] When the user needs to unfold the brush head 3 for use, first press the moving plate 43 down. Through the limiting cavity 41 and the positioning groove 42, the top of the moving plate 43 moves to be flush with the inner bottom wall of the limiting window. Then, rotate the brush head 3 180 degrees out. Then release the moving plate 43. Through the reaction force of the telescopic spring 46 and the limiting rod 45, the moving plate 43 is reset and abuts against the inner top wall of the positioning groove 42. The inner wall of the storage cavity 2 and the side wall of the moving plate 43 limit and fix the brush head 3, making it convenient for the user to brush their teeth.

[0034] When the user needs to store the used brush head 3, first press the moving plate 43 down. Through the limiting cavity 41 and the positioning groove 42, the top of the moving plate 43 moves to be flush with the inner bottom wall of the limiting window. Then, rotate the brush head 3 180 degrees and place it inside the storage cavity 2. Then release the moving plate 43. Through the reaction force of the telescopic spring 46 and the limiting rod 45, the moving plate 43 is reset and abuts against the inner top wall of the positioning groove 42, so that the brush head 3 can be conveniently stored.

[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
