A cleaning head for a personal care appliance includes an elastic bladder having a bladder wall enclosing a fluid. The bladder wall has an inner base portion with a base thickness, which may be non-uniform, and a plurality of spaced projections extending outwardly from the inner base portion. The bladder is fixedly attached to a receiver portion of a bladder support, and a retainer is provided for attaching the bladder support to the personal care appliance such that the bladder support is drivably engaged by the personal care appliance. At least some of the plurality of spaced projections are configured to dynamically engage and disengage with neighboring ones of the plurality of spaced projections during use.

A housing assembly defines a housing entrance leading into an interior housing zone configured to receive, at least in part, the personal-care device. A base assembly includes a first support section configured to be selectively connectable to the personal-care device. The base assembly is pivotally mountable to the housing assembly. The base assembly is pivotally rotatable in such a way that the first support section is selectively covered by the housing assembly. The base assembly is also pivotally rotatable in such a way that the personal-care device, which is selectively connectable to the first support section, is selectively positionable within the interior housing zone of the housing assembly and is user-inaccessible.

End effectors and systems including end effectors including embedded batteries and auxiliary components powered by the batteries are described. In an example, the end effector includes a base portion coupleable to a motor carried by an appliance that is separate from the end effector; and a battery disposed in the base portion configured to power an auxiliary component of the end effector.

An apparatus for cleaning an ocular adnexa having a finger sole. The finger sole has a sole surface and a sole bottom. An array of bristles is coupled to the sole bottom. A finger strap is coupled to the sole surface.

The invention relates to a skin treatment device comprising a housing (10) with a handle section (11), a disc-shaped skin treatment element (21), a drive mechanism incorporated in said housing and coupled to said skin treatment element for driving said skin treatment element into rotational movement about a rotational axis, wherein said skin treatment element has a first skin treatment surface (22) and a second skin treatment surface (25), said first skin treatment surface (22) being oriented axially with respect to said rotational axis, said second skin treatment surface (25) being oriented radially with respect to said rotational axis and extending along a circumference of the skin treatment element.

A method for oral care. In one aspect, the method for oral care includes a) receiving sensor data from at least one sensor configured to detect motion of an oral care device during a brushing routine of a user, the sensor data corresponding to the detected motion; and b) determining a target brushing time based on the sensor data. In another aspect, the method for oral care includes a) receiving sensor data from at least one sensor configured to detect brushing intensity during a brushing routine of a user, the sensor data corresponding to the detected brushing intensity; and b) determining a target brushing time based on the sensor data.

An adapter for a powered brush includes a body portion, a plurality of leg members extending from the body portion and being configured to releasably retain the adapter on a drive hub of a powered brush, and an attachment hub on the body portion, the attachment hub being configured to releasably receive an accessory. The adapter is configured to transmit rotation and / or oscillation from the drive hub of the powered brush to the accessory.

A cleansing device is proposed. The cleansing device may include an inner cleansing part coming into close contact with a cleansing target; an outer cleansing part provided outside the inner cleansing part; and a rotating part configured to rotate the inner cleansing part and the outer cleansing part relative to each other. The inner cleansing part and the outer cleansing part have at least one contact point.

The present disclosure is concerned with a personal care device having a head portion having a driven treatment head, a handle portion having a drive unit for providing a motion having a motion direction, and a drive train extending between the drive unit and the driven treatment head for transmitting the motion from the drive unit to the driven treatment head, the drive train having a separable coupling. The separable coupling has a first coupling part having a first coupling element, a second coupling part having a second coupling element, the first and the second coupling elements being separably engaged with each other, and a resilient element biasing the first coupling element and the second coupling element against each other so that the first and second coupling elements are engaged in a gap-free manner along the motion direction.

A method for controlling display of a user interface for optimizing performance in using a personal care appliance is provided including: receiving a user info or regimen; receiving a protocol or routine to use the appliance; receiving an appliance status related to a user's usage of the appliance; comparing the appliance status to a target usage of the appliance in the protocol or routine; and controlling display of an indicator of the user's performance based on the comparison.
