[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution for cleaning a dental flosser handle: a dental flosser handle, including a handle 1 and a water channel 11 that runs through the handle 1. The front end of the handle 1 is provided with a dental flosser connector 4, and the rear end of the handle 1 is also provided with a pipe connector. The handle 1 is connected to the dental flosser through the dental flosser connector 4. The purpose is to adjust and control the rinsing water volume of the dental flosser by holding the handle 1 and using the flow regulating cylinder 2.
[0025] A flow regulating cylinder 2 is integrally formed on the handle 1 near the dental floss connector 4. The flow regulating cylinder 2 and the handle 1 near the dental floss connector 4 are integrally molded to ensure structural stability. A valve stem 5 is installed inside the flow regulating cylinder 2. The upper middle part of the valve stem 5 has a ring-shaped flow regulating slot 6. The middle part of the valve stem 5 corresponds to the water supply channel 11 and is used to block the water supply channel 11. The outer diameter of the valve stem 5 matches the inner diameter of the flow regulating cylinder 2, and the valve stem 5 can slide up and down within the flow regulating cylinder 2. When the valve stem 5 is inserted into the flow regulating cylinder 2, the outer diameter of the valve stem 5 and the inner diameter of the flow regulating cylinder 2 fit tightly, ensuring that the valve stem 5 can slide up and down within the cylinder. When the adjustment button is pressed... When not pressed, the middle of the valve stem 5 will block the water supply channel 11, preventing the water supply channel 11 from connecting with the dental flosser connector 4, thus preventing water from entering the dental flosser. When the adjustment button 3 is pressed, causing the valve stem 5 to be pressed down in the flow adjustment cylinder 2, the flow adjustment slot 6 will move down to correspond to the water supply channel 11. The water in the water supply channel 11 will then flow through the flow adjustment slot 6 to the dental flosser connector 4, thus entering the dental flosser. When the valve stem 5 is fully pressed down, the flow adjustment slot 6 will be completely aligned with the water supply channel 11, meaning that the water supply channel 11 and the dental flosser connector 4 will be fully connected, thus achieving communication between the water supply channel 11 and the dental flosser.
[0026] The two sealing rings 8 at the upper end of the valve stem 5 are located at the upper and lower ends of the flow regulating cylinder 2, respectively. The upper and lower outer walls of the valve stem 5 are provided with sealing grooves 7, and sealing rings 8 are fitted inside the sealing grooves 7. The top of the valve stem 5 is also connected to an adjustment button 3 that extends out of the flow regulating cylinder 2. The design of the two sealing rings 8 can prevent water in the water supply channel 11 from leaking from the top or bottom of the flow regulating cylinder 2, thereby improving the sealing performance of the flow regulating cylinder 2. Moreover, the sealing rings 8 are made of elastic rubber material to ensure the sealing effect.
[0027] A plug 10 is provided at the bottom of the flow regulating cylinder 2. A spring 9 is also provided inside the flow regulating cylinder 2 between the valve stem 5 and the plug 10. The outer surface of the plug 10 is machined with internal threads, and the inner wall of the bottom of the flow regulating cylinder 2 is machined with internal threads. The plug 10 is threadedly connected to the flow regulating cylinder 2, and an O-ring is also provided between the flow regulating cylinder 2 and the plug 10. The detachable design of the plug 10 facilitates the maintenance and cleaning of the flow regulating cylinder 2. In addition, the design of the spring 9 allows for easy manual pressing of the adjustment button 3, which pushes the valve stem 5 down, thereby compressing the spring 9. When the adjustment button 3 is released, the valve stem 5 will be reset by the restoring force of the spring 9. At the same time, an O-ring is installed at the connection between the plug 10 and the flow regulating cylinder 2 to further improve the sealing performance.
[0028] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When the handle 1 is in use, its front end is connected to the dental flosser through the dental flosser connector 4, and its rear end is connected to the connecting pipe. The connecting pipe is connected to the faucet or external water source through the connector. When the user presses the adjustment button 3, the valve stem 5 slides down in the flow adjustment cylinder 2. At this time, the blocking state between the middle of the valve stem 5 and the water supply channel 11 is changed, and the flow adjustment slot 6 gradually corresponds to the water supply channel 11. As the degree of pressing is different, the corresponding area of the flow adjustment slot 6 and the water supply channel 11 changes, thereby realizing the adjustment of water flow rate.
[0029] When pressed to the position, the flow regulating slot 6 is completely aligned with the water supply channel 11, and the water flow reaches its maximum. After the regulating button 3 is released, under the elastic force of the spring 9, the valve stem 5 returns to its original position, the corresponding area of the flow regulating slot 6 and the water supply channel 11 decreases, and the water flow decreases accordingly until the middle of the valve stem 5 re-blocks the water supply channel 11, and the water flow is stopped.
[0030] In this way, users can easily adjust the water flow of the dental flosser according to their own needs to achieve precise oral cleaning. At the same time, the multiple sealing structures ensure that there will be no leakage during the flow adjustment process, improving the safety and reliability of the device.
[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this utility model. These improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices and operating methods not specifically described and explained in this utility model shall be implemented in accordance with conventional means in this art unless otherwise specified or limited.
