This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20250009492 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING SWEEPING AND POWER TAPPING MOTIONS
Original Abstract Submitted
a power toothbrush device () including a brush head member () having bristles and a drivetrain assembly () having a drivetrain shaft () configured to drive the brush head member. the drivetrain assembly includes a resonator () configured to rotate about a central axis (a) to move the bristles in a first movement pattern; a resilient member (); a magnet (a, b, a, b) connected with the resonator; and a conductor (a, b, a, b). as the resonator rotates and the magnet moves toward the conductor in a first direction, a force is generated upon the magnet in a second direction that is opposite the first direction, and the force generated upon the magnet thereby causes a rotation of the resilient member about a second axis that is different than the central axis.
