[0030] As shown in Figures 1 to 6, this embodiment provides an interdental brush with an observation function, including an interdental brush body, an interdental brush head 14, and a camera 13, a switch button 3, a main board 4, a wireless signal transceiver module 5 and a battery 6 arranged inside the interdental brush body.

[0031] In this embodiment, the interdental brush body includes a first interdental brush body 7 and a second interdental brush body 12. The interdental brush body 7 is an arc-shaped tubular structure with a first accommodating cavity. The front end of the first interdental brush body 7 is provided with a first contact mounting seat 8, and the first contact mounting seat 8 is provided with a first contact 9. The switch button 3, the main board 4, the wireless signal transceiver module 5, and the battery 6 are arranged in the first accommodating cavity. The rear end of the first interdental brush body 7 is connected to the back cover 1. The switch button 3 passes through the back cover 1 and protrudes from the left side of the back cover 1. The outer surface of the end; the second interdental brush body 12 is an arc-shaped tubular structure with a second accommodating cavity, the front end of the second interdental brush body 12 is provided with a brush head mounting portion for mounting an interdental brush head, and the rear end of the second interdental brush body 12 is provided with a mounting slot, and a second contact 10 electrically connected to the first contact is provided in the mounting slot, and a camera mounting hole connected to the second accommodating cavity is also provided on the side wall of the second interdental brush body 12 and adjacent to the brush head mounting portion, and the image acquisition end of the camera 13 is located in the camera mounting hole.

[0032] In this embodiment, the mainboard 4 is electrically connected to the camera 13, the switch button 3, the wireless signal transceiver module 5, and the battery 6. The camera 13 transmits the captured images to a terminal with a display screen via the wireless signal transceiver module 5. The terminal with a display screen can be a mobile phone, tablet computer, or laptop. The switch button 3 is electrically connected to the mainboard 4 via a mainboard switch connection line 21. The wireless signal transceiver module 5 is electrically connected to the mainboard 4. The first contact 9 is electrically connected to the mainboard 4 via a first contact connection line 19. The second contact 10 is electrically connected to the camera 13 via a camera connection line 11.

[0033] In this embodiment, a brush head mounting hole 121 is provided inwardly at the bottom of the brush head mounting portion, and an L-shaped brush head positioning groove 122 is provided on the side wall of the brush head mounting portion. The interdental brush head 14 includes a brush head body 140 and a brush head connector. The brush head connector includes a brush head connecting shaft 141 and a brush head positioning protrusion 142. The brush head body 140 is coaxially arranged on the brush head connecting shaft 141, and the brush head positioning protrusion 142 is integrally arranged on the side wall of the brush head connecting shaft 141 and is clamped in the L-shaped brush head positioning groove 122. The brush head connecting shaft 141 matches the brush head mounting hole 121, and the brush head connecting shaft 141 is clamped in the brush head mounting hole 121 through the brush head positioning protrusion 142, so that the interdental brush head can be detachably mounted on the brush head mounting portion, which is convenient for installation and disassembly. In addition, an annular protrusion is provided at the position where the brush head connecting shaft is exposed from the brush head mounting part. The outer diameter of the annular protrusion is larger than the outer diameter of the brush head connecting shaft. Strip protrusions or serrations can be added to the annular protrusion according to actual needs, thereby increasing the hand-tightening torque and further facilitating operation.

[0034] In this embodiment, a fill light is also connected to one side of the camera 13. Through the fill light, light can be directly irradiated to the gaps between teeth. The high brightness makes the camera imaging clear, making it easier to capture the situation inside the oral cavity.

[0035] In this embodiment, a USB charging port 2 is further provided on the back cover 1 , and the USB charging port 2 is electrically connected to the mainboard 4 , and charging can be performed via the USB charging port.

The upper portion of the base cover 17 is formed with a groove for placing the interdental brush body. The lower portion of the base 16 is provided with a suction cup 18. When not in use, the interdental brush body can be placed on the base 16 to prevent the interdental brush head from contacting other objects.

[0038] The working principle of this embodiment is further described below:

[0039] In this embodiment, the first and second interdental brush bodies are detachably connected and, when integrated, form an ivory-shaped structure. The outer diameters of the first and second interdental brush bodies taper from the rear end to the front end, with the larger diameter at the rear end making it easier to hold, and the smaller diameter at the front end facilitating insertion into the oral cavity, minimizing obstruction during cleaning and photographing. The interdental brush body utilizes a combined structure of the first and second interdental brush bodies, with internal components housed separately within the two brush bodies, facilitating processing and assembly. Furthermore, two contacts provide electrical connection between the components within the two brush bodies, facilitating circuit testing. Example 2

[0040] As a preferred embodiment, the rest is the same as that of Example 1, except that, as shown in Figures 7 to 9, the brush head mounting portion of this embodiment is provided with a brush head mounting hole that passes through the brush head mounting portion, and an elastic clamping limit strip and a fixed limit protrusion are provided on the side surfaces of the brush head mounting hole. The interdental brush head 14 includes a brush head connecting seat and a brush head body, the brush head body is installed in the brush head connecting seat, the lower side wall of the brush head connecting seat is provided with a step protrusion that matches the fixed limit protrusion, the top of the brush head connecting seat is provided with a slot that matches the elastic clamping limit strip, and the side surfaces of the brush head connecting seat opposite to the elastic clamping limit strip and the fixed limit protrusion are respectively flat and arcuate structures, so that the interdental brush head can be detachably mounted on the brush head mounting portion.
