Description

TECHNICAL AREA

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of intelligent toothbrushes, in particular an intelligent multi-vibration toothbrush design. BACKGROUND

[0002] As people increasingly prioritize their oral health, the demand for electric toothbrushes as daily oral cleaning devices continues to grow. Currently, most electric toothbrushes on the market offer basic vibration cleaning functions, but there is still significant room for improvement in terms of the variety of operating modes and the ability to meet individual user needs.

[0003] Users can only perform basic functions via simple on / off buttons and intensity adjustment buttons. While such designs are easy to use, they cannot meet the diverse needs of users regarding cleaning modes and intensity levels in different application scenarios. Therefore, there is a lack of flexibility in selecting the operating mode and intensity, and it is not possible to adapt to the actual needs of the users, which affects the cleaning performance and the user experience. DEPICTION

[0005] To solve the aforementioned technical problems, the present disclosure provides the following technical solution.

[0006] An intelligent multi-vibration toothbrush design comprises a handle and a head, which is detachably connected to the top of the handle. A core assembly holder is located within the handle, and a printed circuit board (PCB) and a drive motor, electrically connected to the PCB, are attached to the core assembly holder.

[0007] The drive motor is equipped with a drive shaft that extends to an upper end of the handle part, with the head part being connected to the drive shaft.

[0008] The handle is equipped with a control panel connected to the circuit board, which integrates a power detection unit, a mode switching unit and an intensity adjustment unit into the circuit board.

[0011] Preferably, a lithium battery is embedded in the core assembly holder at its lower end. A further waterproof ring, a base cover, and a dustproof cover, which is slid over the base cover, are successively connected to a lower end of the handle part, with a charging port compatible with the lithium battery being located further in the base cover.

[0012] Preferably, the circuit board is further provided with an indicator light group, wherein the handle part is provided with a light trough matching the indicator light group and wherein a free space between the handle part and the indicator light group is filled with a light-shielding film.

[0013] Preferably, an upper end of the drive shaft is provided with an anti-misalignment slot.

[0014] Preferably, two outer surfaces of the core assembly holder are provided with counterweight grooves, and copper sheets are glued into the counterweight grooves using ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) adhesive.

[0015] Preferably the drive motor is a magnetic levitation motor, wherein a Hall switch is electrically connected to the circuit board.

[0016] Preferably, the core assembly holder and the magnetic levitation motor are lined with a rubber-coated layer.

[0024] In a specific application, the drive motor 5 is equipped with a drive shaft 6 that extends to the upper end of the handle 1, with the head 2 being connected to the drive shaft 6. The drive motor 5 powers the head to vibrate, thus completing the use of the toothbrush.

[0025] The handle 1 is equipped with a control panel 7, which is connected to the circuit board 4. A power sensing unit, a mode switching unit, and an intensity adjustment unit are integrated into the circuit board 4. The interaction of all these units makes the toothbrush design suitable for daily oral hygiene, especially for users who require different cleaning modes and intensity adjustments, such as those seeking a thorough clean, those with sensitive teeth, or those with specific oral care needs.

[0026] The control panel 7 is equipped with a control switch 8 and a mode button 9, which are connected to the circuit board 4. The gap between the circuit board 4 and the control panel 7 is filled with a soft rubber seal 10. The use of the soft rubber seal 10 improves the ease of use of the buttons.

[0027] A motor silicone seal 11, a shaft sleeve 12, and a waterproof ring 13 are successively slid over the upper end of the handle part 1 and the rotating end of the drive motor 5. A lithium battery 14 is further embedded in the core assembly holder 3 at its lower end. Another waterproof ring 13, a bottom cover 16, and a dustproof cover 15, which is slid over the bottom cover 16, are successively connected to the lower end of the handle part 1, and a charging port 17 suitable for the lithium battery 14 is additionally arranged in the bottom cover 16.

[0028] The two waterproof rings 13 ensure a sealing effect during use and meet the requirements for use in a bathroom environment.
