[0023] The working principle and use process of the present invention: before the actual use of the multifunctional detachable mouth opener for oral orthodontics, firstly, the corresponding components of the mouth opener are selected and assembled according to the use situation, that is, according to the patient's condition needs, so as to provide local support and overall support to the patient's lips, teeth and cheeks, and can adsorb and clean saliva, so as to take into account the different needs of doctor's observation diagnosis and rehabilitation training. The following will be mainly explained with overall support as the main body, and the corresponding accessories can be removed on the basis of overall support to meet the needs of different patients; First, take out the main body composed of the base 1, the rotating arm 2, the suspension 3 and the clamp arm 4, then take out the flared seat 217, align the insert tube 216 with the opening on the strip box 215, rotate the insert tube 216, screw the insert tube 216 into the strip box 215, and sequentially connect the two flared seats 217 to the two strip boxes 215 stably. In this process, as the insert tube 216 is screwed into the strip box 215, it will press the strip plate 309, forcing the strip plate 309 to squeeze the air on the other side and slide inside the strip box 215. At the same time, the ejector pin 310 will also press the flower plate 311, forcing the flower plate 311 to slide inside the insert tube 216, opening the air flow path between the strip box 215 and the flared seat 217. It should be noted here that before use, it should be ensured that the air pressure between the strip plate 309 and the air valve 3091 inside the strip box 215 is greater than the air pressure on the other side of the strip plate 309, so as to ensure the assembly stability of the flared seat 217. Then, align the cross tube 221 on the top box 218 with the opening on the top expansion seat 217, align the cross tube 221 on the bottom box 219 with the opening on the bottom expansion seat 217, and rotate the cross tube 221 to install the top box 218 and the bottom box 219 on the two expansion seats 217 respectively. Here, you can also install them in reverse according to your habit of holding the clamp arm 4. You only need to ensure that two top boxes 218 are installed on one expansion seat 217 at the same time, and the other expansion seat 217 is installed on the bottom of the expansion seat 217. Two bottom boxes 219 are installed on the top at the same time. When the cross tube 221 is screwed into the expansion seat 217, the cross tube 221 presses the stopper plate 306, forcing the two stopper plates 306 to overcome the elastic force of the compression spring 307 and approach each other, so that the side hole 305 is connected with the inner cavity of the expansion seat 217. Then, the driving bolt 302 is rotated to drive the plug plate 303 to slide along the column cavity 304, opening the air flow path between the inner cavity of the top box 218 and the bottom box 219 and the two expansion seats 217. Then, take out the tooth plate 314, align the screw rod 313 with the hole on the flaring seat 217, rotate the screw rod 313, screw it into the flaring seat 217, install the tooth plate 314 that can be installed with the clamping tube 315 on the bottom flaring seat 217, install another tooth plate 314 on the top flaring seat 217, and take out the clamping tube 315, clamp the clamping tube 315 on the tooth plate 314 at the bottom, and by adjusting the depth of the screw rod 313 screwed into the flaring seat 217, the distance between the tooth plate 314 and the flaring seat 217 can be limited to adapt to the individual differences of patients, and finally, the tooth pad 3141 is attached to the concave part of the tooth plate 314, and the overall assembly of the flare is completed. It only needs to be adjusted before the first use, and it can be officially put into use; The sealing bolt 321 is rotated to unscrew the end of the sealing bolt 321 out of the connecting pipe 319, and the flow passage of the connecting pipe 319 is opened. The clamp arm 4 is held, and the shaft tube 201 is driven to move back and forth through the suspension 3 under the limit of the rotating arm 2, forcing the piston 202 to slide back and forth on the base 1 driven by the shaft tube 201. Then, under the flow limit of the pilot valve 203, the external air will be sucked into the base 1, and then pressed into the slide cylinder 211 through the guide hole 213, and then the air flow will pass through the straight pipe 21 4 enters the strip box 215, enters the expansion seat 217 through the insertion tube 216, enters the top box 218 and the bottom box 219 through the horizontal tube 221, and enters the cylinder 223 through the vertical tube 222. Here, for the convenience of subsequent description, the air flow path is referred to as the air pressure path. Finally, under the guidance of the connecting tube 319 and the flat box 320, the air flow enters the space inside the top box 218 and the bottom box 219 located outside the horizontal tube 221 and the space inside the cylinder 223 located outside the vertical tube 222; In the initial state, the space inside the top box 218 and the bottom box 219 outside the horizontal tube 221 and the space inside the cylinder 223 outside the vertical tube 222 are filled with air, so that the expansion seat 217, the top box 218, the bottom box 219 and the tooth plate 314 are in a retracted state close to each other, so that the expander can be inserted into the patient's mouth; The aforementioned adjustment work only needs to be performed before the patient's first use, so as to fine-tune the spacing between the mouth-expanding seat 217, the top box 218, the bottom box 219 and the tooth plate 314 in the initial state, and adjust the overall initial external expansion size of the mouth-opener to adapt to the patient's oral cavity. After completing the aforementioned adjustment work, the sealing bolt 321 is rotated in the reverse direction to cut off the flow path of the connecting tube 319, so as to fix the initial state, and ensure that the mouth-expanding device will restore to the initial state under the action of air pressure without external force support, and then it can be officially put into use; When using the expander, first hold the clamp arm 4. During this process, two fingers should be inserted into the holes at the ends of the clamp arm 4 respectively, so that one finger can be aligned and pressed at any time to plug 208. According to personal habits, the holding method of the clamp arm 4 is adaptively adjusted. Then, the plug 208 is pressed, and the air inside the air cavity 206 will flow out through the gap between the plug 208 and the air cavity 206. Under the conduction of the shaft tube 201, the conduit 204 and the guide hole 213, the air inside the base 1 will also flow out accordingly, and the air filled into the top box 218, the bottom box 219 and the cylinder 223 through the aforementioned air pressure passage will also flow out accordingly; Since the flow path of the connecting pipe 319 has been cut off, the space outside the horizontal pipe 221 inside the top box 218 and the bottom box 219 and the air outside the vertical pipe 222 inside the cylinder 223 will be retained accordingly, and a pressure difference will be formed between the ring plug 220 and the sealing ring 224, so that the expander will eventually return to its initial state under the action of air pressure; Then, stop pressing the plug 208, so that the plug 208 is reset under the drive of the spring 209, and the gap between the air cavity 206 and the plug 208 is blocked again. After the arc-shaped part on the expansion seat 217 is sent into the patient's mouth and the patient bites the tooth pad 3141 on the tooth plate 314, the forceps arm 4 is reciprocated again to extract external air, and the air is filled into the top box 218, the bottom box 219 and the cylinder 223 through the aforementioned air pressure passage, forcing the ring plug 220 and the sealing ring 224 to overcome the pressure on the other side under the action of air pressure and slide accordingly, gradually increasing the distance between the expansion seat 217, the top box 218, the bottom box 219 and the tooth plate 314, so that the overall size of the expander expands outward; During this process, the parts of the mouth expander 217, the top box 218 and the bottom box 219 that are inserted into the patient's mouth will give elastic support to the patient's lips, the cheek plate 5 will give elastic support to the patient's cheeks, and the tooth plate 314 will give elastic support to the patient's teeth, thereby expanding the patient's mouth in the process of the overall size of the mouth expander expanding outwards; At the same time, under the conduction of the guide hole 213, the shaft tube 201 and the catheter 204, the air drawn into the base 1 will also be synchronously sent into the air cavity 206, forcing the block 205 to push the finger pressure head 207 against the doctor's finger under the action of air pressure, and the block 205 drives the finger pressure head 207 to squeeze the doctor's finger under the action of the same air pressure, which can help the doctor to feel the support strength of the patient's oral cavity more intuitively. With the indication of the barometer 210, the support strength of the patient's oral cavity can be accurately controlled, and can be adjusted steplessly according to actual needs, while adapting to different mouth sizes, avoiding strain on the patient's oral surrounding muscles; The aforementioned process is the process of stretching the patient's mouth and providing overall support. The aforementioned installation and adjustment process only needs to be performed during the first use. Subsequently, the top box 218, the bottom box 219 and the cylinder 223 can be inflated by squeezing the clamp arm 4, and the plug 208 can be pressed to release the air. The support strength of the oral cavity and the stretching size of the patient's mouth can be controlled by regulating the air pressure. During the doctor's observation and diagnosis process, if only the patient's teeth need to be supported and the patient's mouth needs to be opened, the top box 218 and the bottom box 219 can be selected not to be assembled in the aforementioned assembly stage, and the patient's mouth can be opened only by the expansion seat 217 and the tooth plate 314. In addition, the strip box 215 is rotatably connected to the expansion seat 217 through the insertion tube 216. During this process, the base 1, the rotating arm 2, the suspension 3, and the clamp arm 4 can be deflected to one side for easier observation. Similarly, during the rehabilitation training process, only the patient's teeth need to be supported, and the top box 218 and the bottom box 219 can be selected not to be assembled. By regulating the air pressure, the support strength of the mouth can be steplessly regulated to meet the different strength requirements during passive stretching training and active strength training. If the patient's lips need to be fully opened during the diagnosis and treatment process, the top box 218 and the bottom box 219 can be installed in the aforementioned assembly stage. At the same time, in order to further increase the observation and operation space, after the air pressure adjustment is completed, the cannula 216 can be rotated in the opposite direction, and the strip box 215 can be separated from the top box 218 and the bottom box 219 to remove the base 1, the rotating arm 2, the suspension 3, the clamp arm 4 and the strip box 215, thereby expanding the observation space and the hand operation space; When there is a need to clean saliva, the pinching ball 317 can be squeezed back and forth. Under the flow limiting guidance of the check valve 318, negative pressure will be formed at the negative pressure ball 316, forcing the saliva to enter the clamping tube 315 after being filtered by the negative pressure ball 316, and then pass through the liquid inlet one-way valve in the check valve 318 to enter the pinching ball 317, and then be discharged through the liquid outlet one-way valve in the check valve 318. During the assembly stage, when there is a need to clean saliva, an external liquid storage bag can be put on the end of the liquid outlet one-way valve in the check valve 318. When there is no need to clean saliva, the clamping tube 315 can be selected not to be assembled during the assembly stage; During the disassembly and assembly process, when there is no supporting force provided by the insert tube 216, the strip plate 309 will fit with the strip box 215 under the action of air pressure, connecting the connecting port between the strip box 215 and the insert tube 216. When there is no supporting force provided by the cross tube 221, the stop plate 306 will fit with the openings on both sides of the expansion seat 217 under the elastic force of the compression spring 307. In addition, the on-off function of the plug plate 303 and the column cavity 304 can keep the internal airflow unblocked when the components are assembled, and ensure the relative independence of the air medium inside the components when disassembling, so that the present opener can retain the elastic supporting force in an incompletely assembled state.
