In the teeth brushing process, when the teeth need to be cleaned with the clean water or cleaning fluid, the pumping mechanism 14 can be started. Under the action of the pumping mechanism 14, the clean water or cleaning fluid is sprayed via the liquid discharging port 12 to achieve the teeth rinsing effect. Compared with the traditional electric toothbrush or a traditional water pick, the electric toothbrush of the present disclosure can rinse the teeth while brushing the teeth, so that teeth brushing and teeth rinsing can be simultaneously carried out. This electric toothbrush is convenient to use and has a good user experience.

As shown in FIG. 10 to FIG. 14, the liquid transfer passageway 13 includes a connection valve 3; the connection valve 3 is provided with a first chamber 31, a second chamber 32, and a third chamber 33; the first chamber 31 is communicated with the second chamber 32 through the third chamber 33; the first chamber 31 is provided with a liquid inlet 301; the liquid inlet 301 is communicated with the liquid feeding port 11; the second chamber 32 is provided with a liquid outlet 302; and the liquid outlet 302 is communicated with the liquid discharging port 12.

The pumping mechanism 14 is connected to the connection valve 3 to provide a pumping force for the connection valve 3. Under the action of the pumping force, external liquid is pumped into the liquid inlet 301 via the liquid feeding port 11. The liquid enters the first chamber 31 from the liquid inlet 301. The liquid in the first chamber 31 is transferred to the second chamber 32 through the third chamber 33, and is finally transferred to the liquid discharging port 12 via the liquid outlet 302 of the second chamber 32 and sprayed by the liquid discharging port 12.

A drainage portion 30 is arranged between the third chamber 33 and the first chamber 31. A first liquid guide opening 51 is formed in the drainage portion 30 to communicate the third chamber 33 to the first chamber 31. The third chamber 33 is further provided with a second liquid guide opening 52. The second liquid opening 52 is communicated with the second chamber 32. By the above-mentioned structural arrangement, the liquid in the first chamber 31 enters the third chamber 33 via the first liquid guide opening 51, and the liquid in the third chamber 33 enters the second chamber 32 via the second liquid guide opening 52.

The second chamber 32 is provided with a one-way valve 42, such as a duckbill valve, at the liquid outlet 302. The one-way valve 42 is used for controlling opening and closing of the liquid outlet 302. The connection valve 3 further includes an umbrella-shaped valve 43. The umbrella-shaped valve 43 is provided with a head portion 431 and an umbrella handle portion 432. A plugging hole 53 is formed in drainage portion 30. The umbrella handle portion 432 is fixedly arranged in the plugging hole 53, so that the head portion 431 of the umbrella-shaped valve 43 is clung to the first liquid guide opening 51 to block the first liquid guide opening 51. The head portion 431 of the umbrella-shaped valve 43 is made of an elastic material, such as rubber and silica gel. A detent boss 4321 is also arranged on the umbrella handle portion 432. When the umbrella handle portion 432 is plugged into the plugging hole 53, the detent boss 4321 resists against the drainage portion 30 to play a role of fixing the umbrella-shaped valve 43. A pumping port 331 is arranged below the third chamber 33. A transmission end of the pumping mechanism 14 is connected to the pumping port 331 and does reciprocating motion in the pumping port 331 to provide the pumping force for the connection valve 3, so as to transfer the liquid into the liquid inlet 301 via the liquid feeding port 11 and spray the liquid via the liquid outlet 302.

The second chamber 32 is arranged right above the first chamber 31. A first plug 41 is arranged between the second chamber 32 and the first chamber 31 to avoid direct communication between the second chamber 32 and the first chamber 31. The third chamber 33 is arranged right below the first chamber 31, and a partition plate is formed between the third chamber 33 and the first chamber 31 to form the drainage portion 30. Several through holes running through the partition plate are formed in the partition plate, so as to form the first liquid guide opening 51 and the plugging hole 53. The first chamber 31 is communicated with the third chamber 33 through the first liquid guide opening 51 on the partition plate. The second liquid guide opening 52 of the third chamber 33 extends up between an inner side wall of the third chamber 33 and an outer side wall of the first chamber 31, so as to be communicated with the second chamber 32 and form a rectangular opening in an inner side wall of the second chamber 32.

How the pumping mechanism 14 provides the pumping force for the connection valve 3 is described below:

As shown in FIG. 7 and FIG. 12, when the equipment is stopped, the head portion 431 of the umbrella-shaped valve 43 is clung to the first liquid guide opening 51 to block the first liquid guide opening 51. The one-way valve 42 is closed to block the liquid outlet 302 of the second chamber 32. By the above-mentioned structural arrangement, the transmission end of the pumping mechanism 14, the third chamber 33, and the second chamber 32 jointly form a first closed space.

When the pumping mechanism 14 is started, the transmission end of the pumping mechanism 14 does reciprocating motion in the pumping port 331. When the transmission end of the pumping mechanism 14 moves down, as shown in FIG. 13, a negative pressure is formed in the first closed space to drive the head portion 431 of the umbrella-shaped valve 43 to deform, so that the head portion 431 is away from the first liquid guide opening 51 to open the first liquid guide opening 51. The first liquid guide opening 51 communicates the first closed space with the first chamber 31. At this time, a pressure difference is formed between the first chamber 31 and the external atmosphere, so as to pump the external liquid into the first chamber 31 via the liquid inlet 301. The liquid in the first chamber 31 then enters the third chamber 33 via the first liquid guide opening 51.

When the transmission end of the pumping mechanism 14 moves up, as shown in FIG. 10, FIG. 11, and FIG. 14, the liquid in the third chamber 33 is pressed by the transmission end of the pumping mechanism 14, so that the liquid rushes into the second chamber 32 via the second liquid guide opening 52 and is discharged from the liquid outlet 302 via the one-way valve 42 (it should be noted that in this embodiment, the one-way valve 42 is a duckbill valve, the top of which will be opened under an impact and will be closed when the impact disappears). The liquid is finally formed into a pulse spout at the liquid discharging port 12 and sprayed out. Meanwhile, in this process, the head portion 431 of the umbrella-shaped valve 43 will be rebounded and clung to the first liquid guide opening 51 to block the first liquid guide opening 51, thus preventing the liquid from being discharged from the liquid inlet 301.

By means of the above step, when the transmission end of the pumping mechanism 14 moves down, the liquid enters the connection valve 3 via the liquid inlet 301. When the transmission end of the pumping mechanism 14 moves up, the liquid is discharged out of the connection valve 3 from the liquid outlet 302 in the form of the pulse spout, so as to provide the pumping force, thus transferring the liquid into the liquid inlet 301 via the liquid feeding port 11, and the liquid is formed into the pulse spout at the liquid outlet 302 and sprayed out.

The pumping mechanism 14 includes a first driving device 141, a first eccentric wheel 142, and a transmission rod 143. A rotating end of the first driving device 141 is in meshing connection with the first eccentric wheel 142. The first eccentric wheel 142 is provided with a first eccentric portion 1421. The transmission rod 143 sleeves the first eccentric portion 1421 to achieve the reciprocating motion of the transmission rod 143.

The first driving device 141 may be a small-sized motor. The lower end of the transmission rod 143 is provided with an annular sleeve portion 144. The annular sleeve portion 144 sleeves the first eccentric portion 1421. The first driving device 141 is used for driving the first eccentric wheel 142 to rotate. The rotating first eccentric wheel 142 will drive the first eccentric portion 1421 to eccentrically rotate. The eccentrically rotating first eccentric portion 1421 drives the transmission rod 143 to do reciprocating motion.

The handle 1 further includes a connector 16. The connector 16 is internally hollow, a lower end of which is communicated with the liquid outlet 302 and an upper end of which is communicated with the liquid discharging port 12. The connector 16 is detachably connected to the toothbrush head 2 to detachably connect the toothbrush head 2 to the handle 1.

By the above-mentioned structural arrangement, the pulse spout sprayed from the liquid outlet 302 is transferred to the liquid discharging port 12 via the connector 16 and is sprayed out of the liquid discharging port 12.

The transmission mechanism 15 includes a second driving device 151 and a second eccentric wheel 152. The connector 16 is provided with a connection portion 162. The connection portion 162 is provided with a connection slot 161. A transmission end of the second driving device 151 is in meshing connection to the second eccentric wheel 152. The second eccentric wheel 152 is provided with a second eccentric portion 1521. The second eccentric portion 1521 is sleeved in the connection slot 161 to achieve reciprocating vibration of the connector 16.

The second driving device 151 may be a small-sized motor. The connection portion 162 is perpendicular to the connector 16. The second driving device 151 is used for driving the second eccentric wheel 152 to rotate. The rotating second eccentric wheel 152 will drive the second eccentric portion 1521 to eccentrically rotate. The eccentrically rotating second eccentric portion 1521 does reciprocating motion in the connection slot 161 to drive the transmission rod 143 to do reciprocating motion.

The handle 1 further includes a first liquid guide pipe 61 and a second liquid guide pipe 62. One end of the first liquid guide pipe 61 is communicated to the liquid feeding port 11, and the other end is communicated to the liquid inlet 301. One end of the second liquid guide pipe 62 is communicated to the liquid outlet 302, and the other end is communicated to the lower end of the connector 16. The toothbrush head 2 is internally hollow to form a fourth chamber 34. The fourth chamber 34 forms a connection port 21 in the lower end of the toothbrush head 2. The connection port 21 sleeves an upper end of the connector 16 to detachably connect the toothbrush head 2 to the connector 16. The upper end of the toothbrush head 2 is provided with a toothbrush head portion 22. A protrusion portion 23 integrated with the toothbrush head portion 22 is arranged on the toothbrush head portion 22. The protrusion portion 23 is provided with a liquid spraying hole 24. The liquid spraying hole 24 is communicated with the fourth chamber 34 to form the liquid discharging port 12.

By the above-mentioned structural arrangement, under the action of the pumping mechanism 14, the liquid enters the first liquid guide pipe 61 through the liquid feeding port 11, and is transferred to the connection valve 3 via the liquid inlet 301 by the first liquid guide pipe 61. The liquid entering the connection valve 3 is sprayed via the liquid outlet 302, and is then transferred to the connector 16 through the second liquid guide pipe 62. The pulse water flow in the connector 16 will pass through the fourth chamber 34, and is finally sprayed from the liquid spraying hole 24 of the protrusion portion 23 to form the pulse spout. When teeth need to be brushed, the transmission mechanism 15 can be started to enable the toothbrush head 2 to drive the toothbrush head portion 22 to do reciprocating motion. Bristles or other cleaners can be disposed on the toothbrush head portion 22, so as to achieve a teeth brushing effect. When the teeth need to be rinsed, the pumping mechanism 14 can be started. Under the action of the pumping mechanism 14, the clean water or cleaning fluid will be formed into the pulse spout and sprayed from the liquid spraying hole 24, so as to achieve a teeth rinsing effect.

A built-in power supply 71 is arranged in the handle 1. The built-in power supply 71 is electrically connected to the pumping mechanism 14 and the transmission mechanism 15 to provide electric energy for the pumping mechanism 14 and the transmission mechanism 15 to work. By the above-mentioned structural arrangement, the built-in power supply 71 is arranged in the handle, so that during use, it is not necessary to separately connect the toothbrush to an external power supply, which makes the use process safer and avoids the problems of short circuit and leakage. When the built-in power supply 71 is in low power, an external power supply can be connected to charge the built-in power supply 71. The toothbrush is used safely and conveniently.

In order to achieve the above charge function, a charge port 72 is arranged at the bottom of the handle 1. The charge port 72 is electrically connected to the built-in power supply 71.
