Abstract

See full text

A water flosser is provided that may include a base, a reservoir positioned above the base, a lid, and a handle in fluid communication with the reservoir such as by a hose. The reservoir of the water flosser may include a recess formed in a reservoir wall for receipt of a hose support structure. An input device (e.g., a power button) may be positioned adjacent an upper portion of the water flosser, such as in or adjacent the lid. Actuation of the input device may include application of a force downward toward the base. The water flosser may include a motor having a dual output shaft, with one end of the shaft being associated with a rotary encoder or other sensing device to determine an operational characteristic of the motor. The motor may be driven by a power source such as a rechargeable battery.
