Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of dental headrest technology, and particularly relates to a dental headrest frame structure with a press-driven locking function. Background Technology
[0002] Dental headrests are typically used in dental procedures to support and protect the patient's head, especially during oral treatments. They help patients maintain a stable posture while reducing discomfort during the procedure. Their design considers both patient comfort and treatment precision, while also facilitating the dentist's procedures. For example:
[0003] Chinese patent application number 201720977027.5 and publication number CN208942741U discloses a dental chair headrest positioning and locking mechanism, including a support and baffles. The support has baffles on both sides of its upper surface, and each baffle has a bearing inside. A metal plate is located at the lower end of a connecting rod, and a rubber pad is located on the upper surface of the metal plate. A washer is located at the top of the connecting rod, and a first spring is located on the lower surface of the washer. The lower end of the first spring is connected to the upper surface of the washer. A top plate is located at the upper end of the support rod. This dental headrest positioning and locking device works by pressing down on the washer, which moves the connecting rod downwards. The connecting rod then pushes the metal plate downwards. After the angle adjustment is completed, releasing the washer and the first spring resets the connecting rod, allowing the rubber pad to continue rubbing against the inner wall of the cylinder. This simple structure allows for easy adjustment of the headrest, facilitating production and use.
[0004] Currently, there is no headrest on the market that can lock the headrest height and has an audible alert when it rises. In response, this application proposes a dental headrest structure with a press-driven locking function. Summary of the Invention

[0021] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0022] Example
[0023] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The present invention provides a technical solution: a dental headrest frame structure with a pressing transmission locking function, including a headrest lifting one-way locking mechanism module 1, a headrest lower joint module 2 and a headrest upper joint module 3, which are arranged from right to left.
[0024] The headrest upper joint module 3 includes a box body through which a lifting aluminum tube body 19 passes. Inside the lifting aluminum tube body 19, there is a transmission aluminum tube 12. The two side walls of the transmission aluminum tube 12 are provided with teeth and are symmetrically connected with racks 11. A locking adjustment block 14 passes through the end of the transmission aluminum tube 12 away from the headrest lower joint module 2. One end of the locking adjustment block 14 is connected to the headrest fixing block end cap 13. A headrest lifting button 4 is provided at the end of the transmission aluminum tube 12 located in the headrest lower joint module 2.
[0025] The lower joint module 2 of the headrest is rotatably connected to the box body. A connecting plate 8 is provided between the lower joint module 2 of the headrest and the upper joint module 3 of the headrest. The upper joint module 3 of the headrest is rotatably connected to the connecting plate 8.
[0026] The headrest lower joint module 2 includes a lower joint fixing block 5, which is adapted to the lifting aluminum tube body 19 and passes through the lifting aluminum tube body 19.
[0027] A lifting sliding sleeve 7 is provided between the transmission aluminum tube 12 and the box body, and a pressing end cover 6 is provided between the transmission aluminum tube 12 and the headrest lifting button 4.
[0028] A lifting aluminum tube end cap 15 is provided between the headrest fixing block end cap 13 and the transmission aluminum tube 12, and a locking piece 16 is provided between the locking adjustment block 14 and the transmission aluminum tube 12.
[0029] The locking plate 16 is fitted with an unlocking push block 18. The end of the unlocking push block 18 is inserted into the interior of the transmission aluminum tube 12. A return spring 17 is provided between the outer side of the locking plate 16 and the inner layer of the unlocking push block 18. The return spring 17 is fitted on the locking plate 16.
[0030] The box body is provided with headrest bracket fixing blocks 9 on both sides, and the transmission aluminum tube 12 is provided with fixing limit blocks 10. The fixing limit blocks 10 abut against the inner wall of the lifting aluminum tube body 19.
[0031] In this embodiment, when the headrest frame is pulled upwards and raised, the locking plate 16 collides with the rack 11, producing a "click, click, click..." sound, which effectively solves the problem of the current headrest frame having no prompt.
[0032] When the headrest frame descends, you need to press the headrest lifting button 4 first. The lever presses down the pressing end 6, which transmits the transmission aluminum tube 12 to the unlocking push block 18 below the transmission aluminum tube 12. This pushes the locking piece 16 on the lifting aluminum tube end cover 15 to deform, and the locking piece 16 disengages from the rack 11 to unlock, allowing the headrest to descend.
[0033] This invention addresses the current market lack of headrests that can lock headrest height and provide an audible alert when raising the head. It effectively solves the problem of doctors easily adjusting the headrest by pressing the button (designed to allow for individual adjustment) and raising the headrest height when adjusting the patient's head angle. The audible alert indicates when the head moves.
