Background

The toothbrush and the tooth cup are easy to breed bacteria and need to be disinfected regularly. At present, products for disinfecting toothbrushes and tooth cups in the market mostly adopt ultraviolet sterilization. Harmful bacteria on the bottom and the side wall of the toothbrush and the oral toothbrush disinfection cup are killed by irradiating the toothbrush and the oral toothbrush disinfection cup with an ultraviolet lamp. However, since ultraviolet rays do not penetrate the bristle part of the entire toothbrush, the bristles are shielded from each other, resulting in incomplete sterilization. In addition, because ultraviolet rays are harmful to the human body, such products cannot destroy harmful bacteria in the oral cavity. Most users use mouthwash to disinfect the mouth. However, mouthwash is a consumable and its long-term use can increase the cost of oral cleaning. But also makes the cleaning of the oral cavity and the toothbrush unsynchronized and cumbersome.

Fig. 2 is a schematic top view of the oral toothbrush sanitizing cup shown in fig. 1 with a plate self-cleaning function.

As shown in fig. 1, and also referring to fig. 2-4, the present application provides an oral toothbrush sanitizing cup 100 with a plate self-cleaning function, comprising: container 10, a plurality of metal plates 20 and a power supply and control module. The container 10 is used to contain water. The container 10 has a bottom surface and a wall vertically extending along the periphery of the bottom surface to form a receiving space for receiving water. The container 10 may be made of glass, plexiglass, plastic, or the like. As shown in fig. 2, and also in fig. 3, a plurality of metal plates 20 are disposed at the bottom surface of the container 10 and electrically connected to the power supply and control module. As shown in fig. 4, the plurality of metal plates 20 are divided into two groups of metal plates with opposite polarities, namely a first metal plate group 21 and a second metal plate group 22, according to different energization, wherein the first metal plate group 21 is configured as a positive metal plate, and the second metal plate group 22 is configured as a negative metal plate. In this embodiment, the group of metal plates with black color on the upper surface is a positive metal plate, and the group of metal plates with white color on the lower surface is a negative metal plate. As shown in fig. 1, and also in fig. 3, a power supply and control module is located in the base 30 below the container 10 and is configured to supply power to the two sets of metal plates and control the polarity of the two sets of metal plates. The power supply and control module supplies power to the plurality of metal polar plates to form two groups of metal polar plates with opposite polarities, and an electric field or voltage between the two groups of metal polar plates forms current through water to enable the electrolysis of the water to be in a polarization state.

More specifically, in the present embodiment, the container 10, the base 30, the plurality of metal plates 20, and the power supply and control module are of an integrated structure. In other embodiments, the container 10 and the base 30 may be designed as a unitary structure.

The working process is as follows: the container 10 is filled with water, and the plurality of metal plates 20 are placed in the water, which is municipal tap water. And ensuring that the electric quantity of the battery is sufficient or switching on a power supply, pressing down a switch, supplying power to the plurality of metal pole plates 20 through the power supply and control module, wherein an upper first metal pole plate group 21 and a lower second metal pole plate group 22 in the plurality of metal pole plates 20 are correspondingly connected with the positive pole and the negative pole of the direct-current power supply, and after connection, the power supply switch is connected with the power supply, so that two groups of metal pole plates with opposite polarities, namely the metal pole plate group of the positive pole and the metal pole plate group of the negative pole, are formed. The metal electrode plate group of the positive electrode and the metal electrode plate group of the negative electrode are already placed in water, so that a positive potential field is formed around the first metal electrode plate group 21 connected to the positive electrode of the power supply, and a negative potential field is formed around the second metal electrode plate group 22 connected to the negative electrode of the power supply. The electrolysis of water can be in a special state called polarization by controlling the voltage at two ends of the metal polar plate, the specification and the size of the polar plate and the distance between the metal polar plates of the anode and the cathode.

In this process, a series of electrochemical changes will occur in the water. First, the intermolecular attractive force (hydrogen bond) of the water molecule group is broken largely, and the number of constituent molecules of the water molecule group is largely reduced to form a small molecule group, thereby improving the water activity. Secondly, hydrochloric acid and hypochlorous acid are synthesized by chloridizing dissolved in water (mainly tap water in most areas of China) through the flowing process of current, and then the hydrochloric acid is converted into new hypochlorous acid, strong oxygen and hydrogen. Thirdly, the covalent bond of part of water molecules is broken to form oxygen, hydrogen and hydroxyl.

Through the change, most of bacteria, viruses and the like in the toothbrush soaked in water can be quickly killed (about 30 seconds) by hydrochloric acid, hypochlorous acid, oxygen, hydrogen, hydroxyl and micro-cluster water formed in the water, and harmful bacteria in the oral cavity can be killed when the toothbrush is rinsed by the water treated by the polarization technology (with an experimental report), so that the aim of cleaning the oral cavity is fulfilled.

Therefore, the polarization technology is adopted, no additive is added, the effect of sterilizing the toothbrush and the oral cavity simultaneously can be achieved by using municipal tap water, and the toothbrush and the oral cavity can be effectively sterilized. Because of the disposable consumption, the oral cavity cleaning cost is low.

In the process of implementing the present application, the inventors found that: in the working process of the sterilization and disinfection cup, because the polar plate can generate polarization reaction, positive ions in water and various suspended particles in water can be continuously gathered to a negative electrode under the action of an electric field to form scale deposit, and the working efficiency of the sterilization and disinfection cup is continuously reduced. In order to ensure the normal operation of the sterilization and disinfection cup, the sterilization and disinfection cup needs to be cleaned and maintained at intervals to remove the scale attached to the pole plate. The currently common method for descaling the polar plate mainly comprises the following steps: adding acid, alkaline agent or water pressure flushing. The scale removing methods can damage the polar plate and the surface coating of the polar plate while removing the scale, and sometimes the scale removing methods need to be carried out after the polar plate is taken out by disassembling the disinfection cup, which is more complicated and troublesome, and inconvenient to operate, thus leading to poor user experience.

In order to solve the above problem, in this embodiment, the power supply and control module is further configured to switch the polarities of the two sets of metal plates according to a preset time, so as to change the direction of the electric field between the two sets of metal plates, thereby achieving a descaling effect and achieving self-cleaning.

The oral toothbrush disinfection cup 100 can realize the function of cleaning scale without any measures and operations by a user. The oral toothbrush disinfection cup 100 can be always in a good working state, and the efficient sterilization and disinfection effect is kept.

Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of a control circuit in the power supply or control module of the oral toothbrush sanitizing cup with a pad self-cleaning function shown in fig. 1. In this embodiment, the schematic structure of the control circuit is as shown in fig. 5, the battery provides 5V input, and one input of the battery is boosted to 12V by the boost circuit to open the Q1mos transistor. The other path supplies power to the load.

The working process is as follows: after the machine is started, the single chip microcomputer sends out an instruction to open the MOS tube Q1, the positive electrode of the battery is connected into the first metal plate group 21, at the moment, the MOS tube Q4 is opened, and the negative electrode of the battery is connected into the second metal plate group 22. After 1 minute of operation. The single chip microcomputer controls Q1 and Q4 to be closed. And opening Q2 and Q3, wherein the positive electrode of the battery is connected to the second metal plate group 22, and the negative electrode of the battery is connected to the first metal plate group 21. Work was done for one minute.

This is one duty cycle. In this cycle, the first metal electrode plate group 21 and the second metal electrode plate group 22 complete the switching of the positive and negative electrodes.

The working principle of the sterilization and disinfection cup described in the above embodiment is that when the polar plate is connected in a reverse polarity manner, a 'potential countermeasure' is formed on the scaling layer on the polar plate, and charged particles attracted by opposite polarities in the scaling layer are separated from the surface of the polar plate by the repulsive force of the same polarity potential, so that scaling and falling are realized, and thus the scaling effect is realized.

It should be noted that the manner of controlling the on/off of the circuit includes, but is not limited to, the method shown in the figure, and may also be implemented by technical means such as a triode, a manual switch, and the like.

More specifically, the voltage between the two ends of the positive metal plate and the negative metal plate is 3V-36V.

More specifically, the distance between the metal plate of the positive electrode and the metal plate of the negative electrode (the distance between the center line of the metal plate of the positive electrode and the center line of the metal plate of the negative electrode) is 0.5mm to 5 mm.

More specifically, each of the metal plates 20 has a length of 5mm to 120mm, a width of 5mm to 120mm, and a thickness of 0.5mm to 2 mm.

More specifically, the power and control module is configured to be implemented by a current pass circuit. The power supply mode can be configured into two power supply modes of battery power supply and direct power connection. The battery power supply may also be configured to supply power to a rechargeable lithium battery.
