Abstract

A power ear picker related to a convenient and practical personal hygiene aid to remove earwax accumulated in one's auditory canal is comprised of a motor to drive a fax to create air extraction and to create vibration at a retainer extending at its front a picker in conjunction with an eccentric weight; a spoon portion being disposed to an opening at the front end of the picker to poke the earwax in the auditory canal; fallen earwax being sucked to and collected by a strainer to facilitate subsequent cleaning.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A power ear picker is essentially comprised of barrel, casing, axle holder, fan, seal, cap, strainer and a retainer; 
 the barrel containing a cell and a motor, a switch to control actuation of the motor, a spindle of the motor protrudes into an axle holder connected to the front end of the barrel;    the casing related to one easy to hold on, made in an inner diameter substantially consistent with that of the barrel, in a length slightly shorter than that of the barrel, and the barrel and the cell to the rear of the barrel being inserted into the casing;    the axle holder extending from its rear end a sheath portion to engage the motor portion in the front section of the barrel; the spindle of the motor penetrating into the axle holder and connected to the fan built in the axle holder, multiple ports being hollowed in the rear-end surface of the axle holder to guide airflow from the fax to exit from the power ear picker;    the fan being disposed in the axle holder and linked to the spindle of the motor; multiple blades of the fax being provided in vortex configuration to give better extraction performance; an eccentric weight being disposed to the fan to enable the running motor a biased vibration result; and the seal being connected to the end surface of the fan;    the seal made in a size substantially consistent with that of the fan being mounted to the front-end surface of the fan; a tubular portion extending from the center of the seal to connect to the inner end of a sleeve of the cap covering up the axle holder;    the cap having its inner diameter consistent with the outer diameter of the axle holder; covering up the axle holder and sealing the fan and the eccentric weight; a sleeve extending from the front end of the cap to connect to the retainer; and the picker extending from the front end of the retainer;    a strainer in a size substantially consistent with the sleeve of the cap;    a flared ring being disposed at the front end of the strainer; the sleeve being limited in place when inserted into the strainer; the flared ring permitting easy removal of the strainer; and multiple pores being disposed on the rear-end surface of the strainer to permit air circulation and intercepting earwax;    the retainer in an inner diameter consistent with the outer diameter of the cap; the retainer being connected to the sleeve of the cap; the picker in proper length extending from the front end of the retainer, the picker being made of a material with minor resilient, a flared retainer ring being disposed at where the retainer and the picker being connected to each other to restrain the depth of the picker into the auditory canal; and    the fan as driven by the motor providing air extraction to enable biased vibration in conjunction with the eccentric weight to provide a practical power ear picker that gives vibration poke to suck earwax.    
   
   
       2 . A power ear picker of  claim 1 , wherein the picker in a diameter smaller than that of the auditory canal extends from the retainer inserted to the power ear picker; and a spoon portion extends from an opening at the front end of the picker to help clean the earwax.  
   
   
       3 . A power ear picker of  claim 1 , wherein air extraction is provided by the revolving fan as driven by the built-in motor to suck the earwax accumulated in the auditory canal; an eccentric weight is disposed to any part transmitted by the spindle of the motor to provide biased vibration to help the picker extending from the front end of the retainer to poke and remove earwax while massaging and stopping itch in the auditory canal.  
   
   
       4 . A power ear picker of  claim 1 , wherein a lighting device is disposed on one side of the cap of the power ear picker.  
   
   
       5 . A power ear picker of  claim 1 , wherein the eccentric weight is disposed on the fan.  
   
   
       6 . A power ear picker of  claim 1 , wherein the eccentric weight is disposed on the seal.  
   
   
       7 . A power ear picker of  claim 1 , wherein the eccentric weight is disposed on the spindle of the motor.  
   
   
       8 . A power ear picker of  claim 1 , wherein an compartment is provided in the barrel of the power ear picker to accommodate a switch and a resilient press is provided on the sheath portion at where in relation to the casing or the axle holder to serve as a touch control for the switch.
