In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish multiple parts or structures with the same or similar structures, and do not indicate any special limitation on the arrangement order or connection relationship.

[0036] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 This utility model embodiment provides a button device 200 for toiletries, including: a main body 100 of toiletries and a button device 200, wherein the main body 100 of toiletries has an internal accommodating space 101 and an installation groove 102 on one side.

[0037] When the pressing part 202 is pressed into place, displacement occurs, triggering component 203 to send a signal to control component 204.

[0038] The main body 100 of the toiletries refers to the shell structure that carries the functional modules, which can be implemented using a waterproof plastic shell. The internal accommodating space 101 is used to install electronic components. The display lens 201 is an opaque component with information display function, and its integral molding with the pressing part 202 can be completed through injection molding. The pressing part 202 is the operating area that receives the user's pressing pressure, and its displacement triggering function can be implemented through an elastic deformation structure. The triggering component 203 is a device that detects changes in physical state, which can be implemented using a micro switch or a pressure sensor, and is used to convert mechanical action into electrical signals.

[0039] Specifically, the mounting groove 102 on the side of the main body 100 of the toiletries provides assembly space for the button device 200. The display lens 201 and the pressing part 202 are formed into an integral structure through injection molding, eliminating the gap error of traditional separate assembly. When the user presses a specific area on the display lens 201 with their finger, the integrally formed pressing part 202 deforms and moves downward. The trigger component 203 in the mounting groove 102 detects the displacement in real time and generates a trigger signal when it reaches a preset threshold. After receiving the signal, the control component 204 executes the corresponding instruction, such as switching the working mode or starting the timer function. During this process, the user's gaze remains on the area of ​​the display lens 201, without the need to search for a separate button. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the display lens 201 is made of elastic material, the toiletries are electric toothbrushes, and the main body 100 of the toiletries is the grip of the electric toothbrush, or the toiletries are water flossers.

[0040] See Figures 1-6 In this embodiment, an elastic pressing member 300 is provided in the mounting groove 102, and an elastic triggering part 301 extending toward the triggering component 203 is provided at the bottom of the elastic pressing member 300. A through groove 302 is provided at the bottom of the mounting groove 102, and the elastic triggering part 301 passes through the through groove 302.

[0041] The elastic pressing component 300 refers to a part with deformation recovery capability, which can be molded from silicone or rubber material, and achieves the pressing and reset function through elastic deformation. The elastic trigger part 301 refers to a columnar structure extending from the bottom of the elastic pressing component 300, which can be a flexible protrusion integrally formed with the elastic pressing component 300, used to transmit the pressing force to the component. The through groove 302 refers to a hole structure opened at the bottom of the mounting groove 102, which can be a rectangular or circular through hole, the size of which is adapted to the movement trajectory of the elastic trigger part 301.

[0042] Specifically, when the user applies pressure to the display lens 201, the elastic pressing member 300 undergoes compression deformation, causing the elastic trigger part 301 at the bottom to move downwards along the through groove 302. After passing through the through groove 302, the elastic trigger part 301 contacts the trigger assembly, and a trigger electrical signal is transmitted to the control circuit board. The deformation characteristics of the elastic pressing member 300 allow it to automatically reset after the pressing operation is completed, avoiding trigger failure due to mechanical jamming.

[0043] See Figures 1-6 In this embodiment, the elastic trigger portion 301 is provided with an elastic contact portion 305 extending from the side near the pressing portion 202.

[0044] The elastic trigger part 301 is a structural component capable of generating restoring force through deformation. It can be made of elastic silicone or metal spring material, and its function is to convert the pressing action into a trigger signal. The elastic contact part 305 is a contact area extending from the elastic trigger part 301 towards the pressing part 202. It can be integrally formed with the elastic trigger part 301, and its function is to enhance the contact stability between the elastic trigger part 301 and the pressing part 202, preventing trigger failure due to pressing position displacement.

[0045] Specifically, when the pressing part 202 is subjected to external force, the pressing part 202 will squeeze the elastic contact part 305, and the elastic contact part 305 will drive the elastic trigger part 301 to move towards the trigger component 203 until the elastic trigger part 301 squeezes the trigger component 203 to trigger.

[0046] See Figures 1-6 In this embodiment, the bottom of the mounting groove 102 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes 303 around the through groove 302, and the bottom of the elastic pressing member 300 is provided with a plurality of mounting posts 304 that are adapted to the mounting holes 303.

[0047] The mounting hole 303 refers to the hole-like structure distributed around the through groove 302. Specifically, it can be implemented using cylindrical holes or square holes. Its function is to provide a positioning reference and fixed support for the elastic pressing part 300.

[0048] The mounting post 304 refers to a protruding structure that matches the shape of the mounting hole 303. Specifically, it can be implemented using injection-molded plastic post. Its function is to enable the quick assembly of the elastic pressing part 300 by inserting it into the mounting hole 303, thus avoiding positional displacement during the installation process.

[0049] Specifically, mounting holes 303 are machined at the bottom of the mounting groove 102, evenly distributed around the through groove 302. For example, four symmetrically distributed holes can be provided on the outer periphery of the through groove 302. Four insertion posts are injection molded at corresponding positions on the bottom of the elastic pressing member 300. The diameter of the insertion posts can be slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the insertion holes to form a clearance fit. During assembly, the insertion of the insertion posts into the insertion holes creates an axial limit for the elastic pressing member 300 within the mounting groove 102. At the same time, the distribution of multiple insertion points constrains the circumferential freedom of the elastic pressing member 300, thereby ensuring that the elastic trigger part 301 is always aligned with the axial direction of the through groove 302.

[0050] See Figures 1-6 In this embodiment, the button device 200 of the toiletries has a pressing part 202 that is a groove and the outer surface of the groove is arc-shaped.

[0051] The recessed area refers to the inwardly recessed touch area on the surface of the display lens 201. This can be achieved by injection molding, forming an integrated structure with the display lens 201. The recessed structure guides the finger's pressure trajectory and enhances tactile feedback. The curved outer surface refers to the curvature design of the recessed contact surface, which can be achieved using a rounded transition surface. The curved contour adapts to the curvature of the human finger, reducing localized pressure during pressing.

[0052] Specifically, when a user needs to operate toiletries, their fingers naturally conform to the curved surface of the groove to apply pressure. The concave shape of the groove positions the fingertip, ensuring that the pressing action is completed along a predetermined trajectory. The curved surface evenly distributes pressure across the entire display lens 201, preventing stress concentration that could cause the lens to crack. The trigger component detects displacement changes in the groove area to trigger a signal. Upon receiving the signal, the control component 204 executes the corresponding function, thus integrating touch operation with the visual display area.

[0053] In this embodiment, the bottom of the mounting groove 102 is provided with mounting strips 207 connected end to end, and the top of the mounting strips 207 is provided with receiving grooves 208. Adhesive is provided in the receiving grooves 208 for connecting with the display lens 201.

[0054] The mounting strip 207 refers to a strip-shaped structure continuously arranged around the bottom edge of the mounting groove 102, which can be made of elastic material or rigid plastic, and is used to provide a stable support boundary for the display lens 201. The receiving groove 208 refers to a recessed structure formed on the top of the mounting strip 207, which can be made by injection molding, and is used to limit the flow range of the adhesive, ensuring that the adhesive is evenly distributed in the predetermined area. The adhesive refers to a liquid or semi-solid substance with adhesive function, which can be made of silicone, epoxy resin or hot melt adhesive, and is used to form an irreversible fixed connection between the display lens 201 and the bottom of the mounting groove 102.

[0055] Specifically, the closed design of the mounting strip 207, with its ends connected, enhances the structural strength of the bottom of the mounting groove 102, preventing deformation due to uneven local stress. The depth and width of the receiving groove 208 can be adjusted according to the amount of adhesive used. For example, the width of the receiving groove 208 can be 1.2-1.5 times the width of the adhesive application area, ensuring that the adhesive fully fills the gaps without overflowing after being compressed. After curing, the adhesive forms a flexible bonding layer that can absorb the assembly tolerances between the display lens 201 and the mounting groove 102, and also resist vibrations or impacts generated during the use of toiletries.

[0056] In this embodiment, the control component 204 is a control circuit board, which is disposed within the accommodating space 101, and the trigger component 203 is disposed on the control circuit board.

[0057] Among them, the control circuit board refers to the core control component used to receive and process trigger signals. Specifically, it can be implemented by using a printed circuit board with a microprocessor and signal conversion module. It integrates signal acquisition and processing through integrated triggers. The accommodating space 101 refers to the cavity area inside the main body 100 of the toiletries used to carry functional components. Specifically, it can be implemented by injection molding to form a regular or irregular shaped cavity structure. It ensures the stable layout of internal components by fixing the control circuit board.

[0058] Specifically, when an external force is applied to the pressing part 202, the trigger component 203 converts the detected displacement change into an electrical signal, and completes the instruction parsing through the signal processing module built into the control circuit board. The actuator is driven by a preset program to complete mode switching or function start / stop.

[0059] In this embodiment, a main support 401 is provided in the accommodating space 101. The top of the main support 401 is provided with a support member 402 for supporting the control circuit board, a positioning member 403 for positioning the control circuit board, and a snap-fit ​​member 404 for snapping and assembling the control circuit board.

[0060] The support member 402 refers to the structure installed on the top of the main support 401 to support the control circuit board. Specifically, it can be implemented using a support protrusion extending from the surface of the support, with the support protrusions distributed on opposite sides of the main support 401 to form a stable support surface. The positioning member 403 refers to the structure that restricts the planar displacement of the control circuit board. Specifically, it can be implemented using a vertically extending positioning protrusion that engages with a socket on the control circuit board, achieving precise positioning through a gap fit between the socket and the protrusion. The locking member 404 refers to the structure that enables a detachable connection between the control circuit board and the main support 401. Specifically, it can be implemented using a locking claw with elastic deformation capability that engages with a locking groove 405 on the edge of the circuit board, forming a mechanical lock through an interference fit between the claw and the groove.

[0061] Specifically, the main support 401 forms a stable bearing plane through the support member 402. After the control circuit board is placed on the surface of the support protrusion, the positioning protrusion is inserted into the corresponding positioning hole to restrict lateral displacement. The locking claw undergoes elastic deformation during assembly and then embeds into the locking groove 405 to form a fixed position. This structure constrains the control circuit board in three dimensions, preventing displacement caused by vibration or external force. At the same time, the support member 402 and the locking member 404 work together to disperse the mechanical stress borne by the circuit board.

[0062] In this embodiment, a light-transmitting display section 205 is provided inside the display lens 201. Multiple LED beads 206 are electrically connected to the control circuit board. A light-shielding cotton 501 is provided on the top of the control circuit board. A through hole 502 is provided on the light-shielding cotton 501, penetrating its top and bottom. Multiple mounting slots 503 facing the LED beads 206 are also provided at the bottom of the mounting slot 102. A light-transmitting soft plastic part 504 is provided inside the mounting slot 503. The light from the LED beads 206 can penetrate the soft plastic part 504 through the through hole 502 and irradiate the light-transmitting display section 205, making the light-transmitting display section 205 visible. In the pump embodiment, the soft plastic part 504 is formed in the mounting slot by secondary injection molding.

[0063] The light-transmitting display section 205 refers to a localized area on the surface of the display lens 201 that has light-transmitting capabilities. This can be achieved using a semi-transparent material or a hollow structure, and its function is to form a visual identification area. The LED bead 206 refers to an electronic component capable of emitting light, specifically a surface-mount LED bead 206, and its function is to provide a light source for the light-transmitting display section 205. The light-blocking cotton 501 refers to a flexible material layer with light-blocking functions, specifically black foam, and its function is to prevent the light from the LED bead 206 from diffusing into non-target areas. The soft rubber part 504 refers to an elastomer with light-transmitting properties, specifically silicone or TPE material, and its function is to directionally transmit the light from the LED bead 206 to the light-transmitting display section 205. The light-transmitting display section 205 can be used for power, mode, or other indicators. The LED bead 206 corresponding to the power indicator is a red-green LED bead 206, which can emit different colors of light depending on the different states of the 100 main units of the toiletries.

[0064] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and are not intended to limit them.
