The purpose of this invention is to improve the health of users while effectively utilizing data obtained from information about tooth brushing. One embodiment of the present invention is a server connected via a network to a user terminal communicating with an instrument equipped with a sensor that detects predetermined measurement information on tooth brushing, and to an evaluator terminal that inputs predetermined evaluations, which receives measurement information on tooth brushing detected by the sensor, receives the measurement information on tooth brushing, receives the receiving habit information of a user who performs tooth brushing, and transmits the evaluation information based on the measurement information and the habit information to the user terminal.

Multi-component plastic housing

A multi-component housing having a length and comprising at least a first component comprising a first plastic material, a second component comprising a second plastic material, and a third component comprising a third plastic material. The housing includes at least one tolerance-elimination element made of the second plastic material and longitudinally attached to the first component along the housing's longitudinal axis. The tolerance-elimination element has an average length extending parallel to the housing's longitudinal axis, which average length is at least ten times less than the length of the housing. The third component at least partially forms an outer surface of the housing, so that the tolerance-elimination element is at least partially overmolded by the third plastic material.

20220401200 · 2022-12-22 ·

The present invention relates to an electric toothbrush base protector. The protector is in the form of a cover or liner that can be placed on a sink on top of a toothbrush charging unit. The cover eliminates contact of a base of the electric toothbrush with the sink surface and with the top of the charging unit. The material of the cover can be a plastic, a cotton or other material. The cover features a continuous opening that enables the electric toothbrush to be placed on the top surface of the charging base. The cover prevents contamination and enables users to quickly secure and store the toothbrush immediately after use.

NONCONTACT POWER SUPPLY DEVICE AND CONTROL DEVICE THEREFOR

A control device for a noncontact power supply device includes a power transmission coil for outputting an alternating magnetic flux upon receiving alternating electric power, and a power transmission control unit for controlling alternating electric power to be supplied to the power transmission coil. The power transmission control unit includes a first mode and a second mode. The first mode controls the alternating electric power to be supplied to the power transmission coil in order to transmit electric power, to be supplied to a load of a power reception device, to a power reception coil, and the second mode controls the alternating electric power for supplying electric power less than the electric power transmitted by the first mode to the power transmission coil. After being activated, the power transmission control unit selects initially the first mode.
