Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of oral cleaning, and in particular, to an intelligent sensing dental irrigator.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] As living standards improve, people are increasingly prioritizing oral hygiene. Dental irrigators, which not only clean the tooth surface but also address gum pockets, have become essential hygiene products in many households.
[0003] Currently, intelligent dental irrigators aim to enhance user experience while maintaining portability. To achieve this, intelligent sensors are separated from the mainboard and positioned at the top of the irrigator. Simultaneously, the display screen is integrated into the mainboard. However, this design presents challenges: the connection between the intelligent sensors and the mainboard may not be secure enough, and during assembly, wire management may be problematic. Additionally, using non-standard sensors to avoid interference with the water outlet may lead to unreliable connections. Furthermore, opting for a high-cost ultra-thin display screen to address the issue of increased overall size due to screen integration adds complexity to assembly and raises costs.
[0004] CN 214 679 065 U discloses a wake-up enabled dental irrigator, which includes: a housing including a body barrel and a head cover disposed on top of the body barrel, with a portion of the head cover forming a light-transmitting display region; a machine-core frame arranged within the housing; and a wake-up system, comprising a wake-up controller, a display screen configured to indicate the current operating parameters of the dental irrigator, and a non-button-type wake-up sensor. The wake-up controller and the display screen are both arranged on the machine-core frame. The display screen on the inner side of the head cover is communicatively connected to the wake-up controller, and aligned with the light-transmitting display region. The wake-up sensor is communicatively connected to the wake-up controller. CN 217 472 140 U discloses a visualized smart electric toothbrush, which includes a brush head module, a handle module, and a locking module. The brush head module includes a brush head, a brush rod, a camera, and a brush rod base. One end of the brush rod accommodates the camera and the brush head, while the opposite end is configured to attach the brush rod base. The brush head includes an imaging channel to allow the camera to acquire oral information. However, the assembly of the above-described devices is complex, making rapid assembly and maintenance difficult.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Typically, in order to more closely gather facial information when users use the intelligent sensing dental irrigator, the sensing cover assembly 2 is disposed at a top of the body housing, and may serve as part of a top structure of the body housing.
[0022] As shown in FIGs 1-6, the intelligent sensing dental irrigator comprises the body integration rack 1, the sensing cover assembly 2, a sensor assembly 3, the machine-core assembly 4, and a data transmission assembly 5.
[0023] The body integration rack 1 (see FIG. 4 for details) has a wiring constraint structure.

[0027] The data transmission assembly 5 comprises a sensing data line 51. A laying path of the sensing data line 51 passes through the wiring constraint structure, such that the sensing data line 51 is constrained within the body integration rack 1. Two ends of the sensing data line 51 are electrically connected to the sensor assembly 3 and the machine-core assembly 4 respectively.
[0028] In the present disclosure, the intelligent sensing dental irrigator features a layout where the sensor assembly 3 and the machine-core assembly 4 are separated. The sensing cover assembly 2 is disposed above the body integration rack 1, and the sensor assembly 3 is disposed on the sensing cover assembly 2, allowing the sensor assembly 3 to collect, by the sensing cover assembly 2, the facial information from the user.

To address issues with unreliable connections and messy wiring of the sensing data line 51, the body integration rack 1 has the wiring constraint structure, and the laying path of the sensing data line 51 passes through the wiring constraint structure to constrain the sensing data line 51 within the body integration rack 1. As a result, the laying path from the sensor assembly 3 to the machine-core assembly 4 is smoother, minimizing the risk of entanglement during assembly. Additionally, the sensing data line 51 is more securely attached to the body integration rack 1, enhancing communication reliability between the sensor assembly 3 and the machine-core assembly 4.

The display screen 6 can be fixed to the side wall of the body integration rack 1 through buckles. Further, the side wall of the body integration rack 1 can be configured with a concave-convex structure, and the display screen 6 is embedded into the side wall of the body integration rack 1, eliminating the need for high-cost ultra-thin display screens, allowing the use of standard display screens and reducing costs.
