Nozzle separating structure of oral irrigator
First Claim
1. An oral irrigator comprising:
- an irrigator body;
a discharge nozzle; and
a structure-for separating a discharge nozzle of an oral irrigator from an irrigator body,wherein the structure comprising;
a first discharge path formed in one side of the irrigator body from a central line of the irrigator body;
a water pressure control lever rotatably arranged above the first discharge path and having a second discharge path in the other side of the irrigator body from the central line, thereby opening and blocking the first discharge path;
a release button section provided on an upper portion of the water pressure control lever and into which the discharge nozzle is inserted and engaged at a central portion thereof, and configured, when an outer surface thereof is pushed, to be bent so as to release the engaged discharge nozzle; and
a locking section provided in the release button section and in the water pressure control lever to control a pushing operation of the release button section depending upon whether the first discharge path is open or blocked.
