Abstract

1,196,255. Teeth cleaning devices. AOUA TEC CORP. 24 Aug., 1967 [8 Sept., 1966], No. 38938/67. Heading A5R. [Also in Division F1] Apparatus for producing a pulsed stream of liquid for teeth cleaning and gum massage comprises a reciprocatory pump driven by an electric motor and has a manually operable member which is rotatable to operate means controlling the intensity of liquid discharged and movable axially to operate a switch controlling the motor. The pump is located in a housing 10 on which a liquid reservoir 11 is mounted. As the reservoir is 'placed on the housing a valve 80 in its base is opened by a pin 81 to permit liquid to flow to the pump under gravity through a flexible tube 27. In the housing 10 an electric motor 35 and its control switch 63 are located on a partition 41 above the pump. Liquid from the pump is discharged as a pulsed stream through a nozzle (12) by way of a tube 16 which when not in use is coiled on a projection (18) in an external recess of the housing. The pump comprises a cylinder 23 in which a piston 25 is reciprocated by a derive member 46 to cause liquid to enter the pump by a part 30, which is controlled by an inlet valve 32, and to be discharged through an outlet port 31 to the waste. The drive member 46 is reciprocated by the electric motor which is coupled to it through a Scotch yoke 49, 40 and fixed pin 51. A recess 54 in the forward end of the drive member deceives a cylindrical head 53 on the piston, the dimensions of the head and recess being such that a lost-motion connection is provided to allow for misalignment of the drive member and the piston axes and avoid transmission of lateral forces on the drive member to the piston. The rate of flow of liquid through the pump is controlled 'by adjusting the closing position of the inlet valve 32 by means of a shaft 57. The shaft 57 is adjusted by gears 58, 60, 61 which are rotated an manually rotating a shaft 68. The actuating member 64 of the electric motor control switch is moved into 'on' or of position by engagement with one of two parallel discs 66, 67 which are spaced on the shaft 68 when the shaft is moved axially.
