As shown in
A water inlet 404 of the oral irrigator 4 communicates with the water outlet end, to cause the oral irrigator 4 to spray water received from the water outlet end out of the oral irrigator 4 under the action of a water level or water pressure of the water outlet end.
Specifically, the oral irrigator 4 in the shower set uses the water level or the water pressure of the water outlet end to cause the water entering the oral irrigator 4 to have certain kinetic energy, and then the oral irrigator 4 uses the kinetic energy to spray the water out, so that the oral irrigator 4 may achieve tooth rinsing without connecting electric energy. Therefore, the use convenience of the oral irrigator 4 can be improved, and energy consumption can be reduced.
Optionally, the shower set provided in this embodiment of this application further includes a top spray shower 1. The top spray shower 1 is connected to a shower rod 2. An end of the shower rod 2 is connected to a tee water outlet 8. Two sides of the tee water outlet 8 respectively communicate with the oral irrigator 4 and the telescoping top spray shower 1 by using a first aqueduct 10 and a second aqueduct 11. The end of the shower rod 2 away from the top spray shower 1 is connected to a switch and a cold and hot water converter 6.
Specifically, the first aqueduct 10 may be used as the water outlet end of the shower set. A shower requirement of a user may be met by using the top spray shower 1 and a telescoping shower 3. By using the oral irrigator 4, the user may rinse the teeth with water pressure during showering, so that the energy consumption of a conventional oral irrigator 4 using battery power is avoided, and the high cost of the conventional oral irrigator 4 is reduced. In addition, a cell is mounted on a side surface of the conventional oral irrigator 4, which may leak for long-time use, so that the conventional oral irrigator 4 does not rinse the teeth with saline or medication. However, the oral irrigator 4 in this application well avoids these defects.
Optionally, the oral irrigator 4 includes a water storage pot 401, a filter element 403, and a water nozzle 406.
An anti-slip handle 402 is arranged on a side of the water storage pot 401. A side of the water storage pot 401 close to the first aqueduct 10 is provided with a water inlet 404.
The filter element 403 is arranged between the water storage pot 401 and the water inlet 404.
The water nozzle 406 is movably connected to an end of the water storage pot 401 away from the water inlet 404. A rotary gasket is movably connected between the water nozzle 406 and the water storage pot 401.
Optionally, a 30° inclination angle is designed on an end of the water nozzle 406 away from the water storage pot 401.
Specifically, the oral irrigator 4 may be prevented from dropping during use by using the anti-slip handle 402. The water storage pot 401 may store the saline or medicinal plants. The saline or medicinal plants are diluted with water in various proportions according to requirements, so that better tooth cleaning and dental care effects may be achieved by rinsing the teeth. Through the arrangement of the filter element 403 between the water inlet 404 and the water storage pot 401, water may be filtered, so that the water entering the oral cavity can be guaranteed to be clean and sanitary. Bursts of water current may be formed by movably arranging the rotary gasket 405 between the water nozzle 406 and the water storage pot 401, so that the teeth in the oral cavity can be effectively rinsed. The end of the water nozzle 406 away from the water storage pot 401 may extend into the oral cavity, and the end of the water nozzle 406 extending into the oral cavity is designed with the 30° inclination angle, so that the oral cavity and the teeth are conveniently rinsed.
Optionally, a side of the tee water outlet 8 is provided with a first water-receiving port 9. A bottom of the shower rod 2 is provided with a second water-receiving port 7. An end of the first aqueduct 10 away from the oral irrigator 4 is provided with a multi-functional interface 13. The multi-functional interface 13 is cooperatively connected to the first water-receiving port 9 or the second water-receiving port 7.
Optionally, a four-gear adjustment switch 5 is arranged at the tee water outlet 8.
Specifically, the user may rotate the four-gear adjustment switch 5 to flexibly control the opening and closing of the top spray shower 1, the oral irrigator 4, and the telescoping shower 3, so that the use requirements of the user can be met. When the four-gear adjustment switch 5 is rotated to a side corresponding to the oral irrigator 4, the water current enters the oral irrigator 4 by using the first aqueduct 10. In the oral irrigator 4, the water current first passes through the filter element 403, and the filter element 403 may effectively filter the water. The water current passing through the filter element 403 drives the saline or medicinal plants in the water storage pot 401 to dilute the saline or medicinal plants for rinsing the teeth, so that better tooth cleaning and dental care effects can be achieved. By arranging the water nozzle 406 with the 30° inclination angle, the teeth in various positions may be rinsed, so that the efficiency of teeth rinsing can be enhanced. The water nozzles 406 of various specifications may be mounted on the water storage pot 401 according to actual requirements, and can be flexibly dismounted and replaced, so that different tooth-rinsing requirements of different populations can be met. The oral irrigator 4 is connected to a conventional shower or a water faucet by using the multi-functional interface 13 of the first aqueduct 10 for use.
Optionally, a positioning member 12 is fixedly sleeved on the shower rod 2. The other end of the positioning member 12 is fixedly connected to a wall.
Optionally, a placement rack 14 is arranged outside the shower rod 2. The placement rack 14 is a square rack and has semicircular grooves on two ends. The semicircular grooves are respectively mated with the oral irrigator 4 and the telescoping top spray shower 1.
