Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medical equipment, and in particular to a disinfectant anti-water backflow system and a dental chair. Background Art

[0002] Dental chairs are essential equipment in oral treatment, providing support and treatment for patients. After use, the dental chair pipelines need to be disinfected. There are two common dental chair pipeline disinfection systems. One is to directly connect the tap water pipeline to the disinfectant water. This method is more complicated to use and requires manual switching every time the disinfection is performed. The other is a disinfection system that integrates a built-in disinfection bottle and a switching pipeline. When disinfection is required, just switch to the disinfection mode, and the disinfection bottle can be used multiple times after filling once, so the second built-in disinfection system is currently used more often.

[0003] Since disinfectant is corrosive, the valve body connected to the disinfectant transmission pipeline is in contact with disinfectant for a long time, which will corrode over time and cause the valve body to leak. Since the solenoid valve connected to tap water is in a normally open state, once the valve body fails, it is easy for tap water to enter the disinfection bottle, causing the liquid level in the disinfection bottle to rise or even overflow from the air hole on the top of the disinfectant. It is also easy for tap water to directly enter the gas pipeline through the valve body, causing the disinfection system to fail. Summary of the invention

Specifically, the disinfection element 10 can be a disinfection bottle, a disinfection tank, a disinfection barrel, a disinfection box, or other containers, as long as they can contain disinfectant. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the disinfection element 10 is provided with an air inlet 11 , a liquid discharge port 12 and a liquid filling port 13 , and the air inlet 11 , the liquid discharge port 12 and the liquid filling port 13 are all through-hole structures communicating with the internal cavity of the disinfection element 10 .

[0065] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the direction of gas flow in the air inlet channel 420 can be from the first end 4201 to the second end 4202, for example, when inflating and pressurizing the disinfection element 10; however, the direction of gas flow in the air inlet channel 420 is not limited to this, but can also be from the second end 4202 to the first end 4201, for example, when releasing the air pressure in the disinfection element 10.

[0066] Furthermore, in this embodiment, if Figures 2 to 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the air intake assembly 40 includes a first channel member 41 and a second channel member 42.

[0067] In a preferred embodiment, Figure 6As shown, when the blocking member 43 blocks the air inlet channel 420, at least part of the blocking member 43 extends into the air inlet channel 420, thereby improving the blocking effect of the blocking member 43; along the direction in which the gas enters the disinfection member 10, the second end 4202 is formed into a flared structure with a gradually increasing radial size, that is, the second end 4202 is formed into a trumpet-shaped or funnel-shaped structure, and the second end 4202 and the blocking member 43 are preferably clearance-matched, so as to ensure that the blocking member 43 and the second end 4202 are separated when the liquid level drops; the anti-seepage component also includes a second sealing member 431 sleeved on the blocking member 43, and the second sealing member 431 is provided with a second sealing member 432.

Under the condition of equal buoyancy, compared with the positive pressure squeezing the second end 4202 to form a flared structure, the sealing effect of the sealing part 43 during sealing can be improved, and the overflow of disinfectant can be effectively avoided.

[0068] In a preferred embodiment, Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the first channel member 41 is provided with a first detection circuit 4101 and a second detection circuit 4102 leading to the mounting hole 410.
