ORAL ELECTRICAL CLEANING DEVICE
An oral cleaning device includes a head portion, RF electrodes located on the head portion and a non-conductive barrier located on the head portion that separates the electrodes from each other. The electrodes, bristles (if included) and the non-conductive barrier are mounted on a base and the base is arranged for either vibratory or rotational motion.
MASSAGE PIN FOR SKIN BLOOD CIRCULATION PROMOTER AND COUPLING METHOD THEREOF
A massage pin for skin blood circulation promoters has a lower end to/from which a silver conductor having stable electrical resistance is coupled or separated by a user of a skin blood circulation promoter, as needed. The massage pin includes: a coupling portion formed at an upper end of the massage pin and press-fitted into a circuit board disposed between a main body and a cover of a blood circulation promoter, the coupling portion being formed of a conductive rubber. An exposed portion extends from a lower end of the coupling portion and is exposed outside through a massage pin-passage hole formed through the cover. The exposed portion has a downwardly tapered connection portion extending from a lower end thereof and includes a silver conductor detachably coupled to the connection portion. The conductor has a reception portion open at an upper portion thereof.
HANDLE FOR AN ELECTRICALLY OPERATED PERSONAL-CARE IMPLEMENT AND ELECTRICALLY OPERATED PERSONAL-CARE IMPLEMENT
A handle for an electrically operated personal-care implement comprises a housing defining an inner cavity accommodating a power source and a motor comprising an eccentric weight for operating the personal-care implement. The motor is mounted on a swivel-mounted carrier. The housing has a longitudinal extension and a substantially circular cross-sectional area extending substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal extension and having a diameter from about 12 mm to about 20 mm, more specifically from about 13 mm to about 17 mm, and even more specifically about 15 mm.
Methods of Designing and Fabricating Customized Dental Care for Particular Users
The various embodiments described herein include methods, devices, and systems for customizing dental care. In one aspect, a dental care device is customized for a particular user, including: (1) a support plate having: (a) a first portion configured to be inserted into a mouth; and (b) an attachment mechanism configured to attach the dental care device to a drive assembly; and (2) an elastomer (elastic polymer) portion enclosing the first portion of the plate, the elastomer portion including a plurality of cleaning tips and shaped in accordance with dental details of the particular user.
Electric toothbrush with controlled suction and irrigation
A toothbrush for use by an operator and capable of being connected to a suction device and a syringe. The toothbrush includes a head, a handle, and a suction assembly. The head includes a plurality of bristles and an irrigation port configured to be in fluid communication with the syringe. The handle is coupled to the head and includes a user interface and a controller configured to actuate at least one of rotation, oscillation, and vibration of the plurality of bristles in response to feedback from the operator through the user interface. The suction assembly is coupled to one of the head and the handle and configured to be coupled to the suction device. The suction assembly includes a suction tip that is movable relative to the head.
Powered Oral Care Implement
A powered toothbrush includes a handle, a power source disposed in the handle, a head including a cavity disposed at a distal end of the handle, an electrically conducting element disposed in the cavity and electrically connected to the power source, and a movable cleaning element connected to the head and movable relative to the cavity. The movable cleaning element includes a tooth cleaning support member, a tooth cleaning element mounted on the support member, and a ferromagnetic member. Application of an electrical current to the electrically conducting element generates a magnetic field at the electrically conducting element. The magnetic field selectively at least one of attracts and repels the ferromagnetic member to move the movable cleaning element relative to the electrically conducting element.
BRUSH, REPLACEMENT MEMBER FOR BRUSH, AND METHOD FOR USING BRUSH
A brush includes a head and a body. The head includes bristles, a diaphragm, and a vibration source attached to the diaphragm. The head is attached to the body. The body includes a circuit configured to supply to the vibration source a supply signal including a non-discrete signal in the audible range.
MULTI-FUNCTION BEAUTY DEVICE
A multi-function beauty device includes a functional assembly mounted on a casing. The casing includes a battery and a vibration assembly therein. An upper portion of the casing is formed with a fitting opening. The functional assembly includes a fitting part with a beauty accessory. The fitting part is inserted in the fitting opening in a top-down direction and positioned in the fitting opening. The beauty accessory extends out of the casing.
Brush with sponge or foam element
The invention provides a body care device (1) for treating a skin, the body care device (1) comprising a housing (100) and a skin treatment head (200) associated with the housing (100), wherein the housing (100) further comprises an actuator (110) configured to rotate the skin treatment head (200) about an axis (A), wherein the skin treatment head (200) comprises a first region (210) comprising a plurality of bristles (211) and a second region (220) comprising a porous flexible material (221).
Vibrating toothbrush
A vibrating toothbrush is provided with vibration-isolating zones that substantially isolate vibrations in the head and reduce vibrations transmitted to the handle without sacrificing structural integrity around the vibration-isolation zones. Such zones may generally comprise neck material that is reduced in cross-section, thinned, replaced by dampening material, or removed altogether to create transmission-inhibiting voids. The vibration-isolating zones may be further supported by the housing of the vibratory element to maintain the structural integrity around the zones and to thereby alleviate weakness conditions that might subject the toothbrush to fatigue and breakage.
