Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a disinfectant solution anti-backflow system and a dental chair. BACKGROUND

[0002] A dental chair is an essential device in oral treatment, which provides support and treatment for patients. After use, the dental chair pipeline needs to be disinfected. There are two common disinfection systems for dental chair pipelines. One is to directly connect the pipeline of tap water to the disinfectant solution. This method is relatively complex to use, and the user needs to manually switch each time disinfection is required. The other is a disinfection system integrated with a built-in disinfectant bottle and a switching pipeline. When disinfection is required, the disinfection mode can be switched, and the disinfectant bottle can be used multiple times after one-time filling. Therefore, the second disinfection system with a built-in disinfectant bottle is currently more commonly used.

[0003] Since the disinfectant solution is corrosive, the valve body connected to the disinfectant solution transmission pipeline is in contact with the disinfectant solution for a long time, which can easily cause corrosion of the valve body, resulting in water leakage. Since the electromagnetic valve connected to the tap water is in a normally open state, once the valve body fails, tap water can easily enter the disinfectant bottle, causing the liquid level in the disinfectant bottle to rise or even overflow from the gas hole at the top of the disinfectant bottle. Tap water can also directly enter the gas pipeline through the valve body, causing the disinfection system to fail. SUMMARY

[0004] Therefore, the present application aims to provide a disinfectant solution anti-backflow system and a dental chair to solve the problem that the valve body in the existing dental chair disinfection system is easily damaged, causing tap water to enter the disinfectant bottle and resulting in overflow of the disinfectant solution, which cannot meet the disinfection requirements of the dental chair pipeline.

The air inlet pipe 20 is in communication with a first end 4201 of the air inlet channel 420, so that the gas conveyed through the air inlet pipe 20 can enter the sterilization device 10 through the air inlet channel 420. The blocking piece 43 is arranged at a second end 4202 of the air inlet channel 420. The buoyancy assembly 50 can drive the blocking piece 43 to move towards or away from the air inlet channel 420 to block or release the second end 4202, so as to block the air inlet channel 420 by the sterilization liquid when the liquid level rises to provide buoyancy, thereby avoiding overflow of the sterilization liquid and ensuring the stability of the sterilization system and the overall pipeline of the dental chair.

[0065] It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, the flow direction of the gas in the air inlet channel 420 can be from the first end 4201 to the second end 4202, for example, when the air inlet channel 420 is inflated to pressurize the sterilization device 10.
