The applicator for applying a haircare product comprises a base 12 and spikes 14 protruding with respect to the base. At least a plurality of spikes 14 each have a cross section of elongate shape in at least one direction of extension. At least some of the spikes of said plurality of spikes are made at least partially of porous material that is able to absorb said haircare product.

A personal care appliance is provided that includes a brushhead for use in skincare; an appliance body having a motor assembly for oscillating the brushhead, wherein the brushhead or a portion of the motor assembly that is configured to oscillate includes a marking; and a brush encoder configured to detect the marking, and determine the oscillation of the brushhead.

A system to promote optimum performance of a personal care appliance is provided including: a personal care appliance having an appliance status; and a client device, in communication with the appliance, including circuitry configured to compare the appliance status with the protocol for using the appliance, control display of an indicator based on the comparison.

An oral hygiene implement is described herein. The oral hygiene implement has a handle; a head, and a neck disposed between the handle and the head. The head has a plurality of contact elements. An indication element is positioned between the neck and handle of the oral hygiene element. A transmission element is positioned between the indication element and a light emitting source. The light emitting source provides electromagnetic energy to the transmission element.

Automatic toothbrushes are disclosed herein. A toothbrush configured in accordance with embodiments of the present technology can include, for example, a handle and a mouthguard coupled to the handle. The mouthguard can be configured to be positioned within a mouth of a user over multiple teeth of the user. A brush assembly having a plurality of bristles can be removably positioned within the mouthguard for engaging and cleaning the teeth of the user. A motor can be disposed within or coupled to the handle and configured to articulate the brush assembly within the mouthguard.

An oral care device having a head with cleaning elements and a handle coupled to the head. The handle may include a selectively rotatable ring arranged between the head and a distal end of the handle that is configured to allow a user to select a desired mode of operation of the oral care device. The handle may include a selectively illuminated light that is configured to display at least one color that visually indicates that certain behaviors, patterns, and/or consistent habits have been performed successfully. The handle may include a processor configured to track a duration of a user's brushing session, a light ring on a bottom surface of the handle, and a pressure sensor. Respective portions of the light ring may be selectively illuminated by the processor to visualize progress toward achieving a predetermined brushing routine time and/or to visualize an over-pressure condition sensed by the pressure sensor.

An automated building washing device generally includes one or more rotational brushes having a vertical rotational axis coupled to a window washing swing stage. The brushes are horizontally movable from end-to-end along the longitudinal direction of a window washing swing stage while rotating about their vertical axis so that a relatively large portion of building surface can be quickly cleaned.

A mechanical toothbrush, including a housing portion extending along a longitudinal axis, a bristle shaft assembly including a shaft portion disposed within the housing and extending along the longitudinal axis, and a head portion disposed outside of the housing and having a plurality of bristles extending perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis around a circumference of the shaft portion, and an electronic controlling mechanism disposed within the housing portion, the electronic controlling mechanism activating the bristle shaft assembly to rotate about the longitudinal axis.

A vibrating toothbrush and an eccentric shaft are proposed. The vibrating toothbrush includes a head in which bristles are planted, and a handle from which a head coupler protrudes, the head being detachably coupled to the head coupler. The toothbrush includes an electric motor accommodated in the handle to generate rotating force; and an eccentric shaft rotatably connected to the electric motor, at least a portion thereof being eccentric to generate vibration and thereby transmit vibration to the head coupler. The eccentric shaft includes a motor fixing part connected to the electric motor; an eccentric weight configured to be offset from a rotation center of the electric motor; and a rotating shaft formed of a metal material, and connecting the motor fixing part and the eccentric weight.

A system and method for treating a surface of a user’s body part, including: obtaining target surface condition information from a user’s body part surface using one or more condition sensors taken from a group consisting of: an optical sensor and a bio-sensor; classifying the target surface condition information using a machine learning classifier to determine an initial target surface condition classification; obtaining treatment progress information using a combination of motion sensor data and surface condition information from the one or more condition sensors; and classifying the treatment progress information using a machine learning classifier to determine a progress classification for treating the initial target surface condition classification.
