During the clamping and positioning process of the tooth clamping device 20, the second electromagnet 452 moves correspondingly in the positioning box 451. After the tooth clamping device 20 completes the clamping and positioning, the second electromagnet 452 electromagnetically attracts the rotating rod 245.

[0069] The working principle of the present invention is as follows:

[0070] All electrical components in the present invention operate starting from the controller.

[0071] When extracting dental pulp stem cells, it is necessary to first take an X-ray of the tooth. The X-ray picture information after shooting is uploaded to the controller. After the controller analyzes it, the dental pulp cavity information of the tooth is obtained. After obtaining the dental pulp cavity information, it is necessary to perform grinding treatment, grooving treatment, cleaning treatment, and separation treatment on the tooth in sequence to separate the tooth and fully expose the dental pulp cavity. After the dental pulp cavity is fully exposed, use forceps to peel the dental pulp tissue from two teeth half and place it in sterile PBS. Cut the dental pulp tissue into pieces and mix it with preheated digestive enzyme. After water bath digestion for a unit time, add an equal volume of complete medium, and after mixing evenly, perform centrifugation. After centrifugation is completed, remove the supernatant, and resuspend the cells with dental pulp mesenchymal stem cell complete medium. Inoculate the resuspended cells into a culture dish and place it in an incubator for culture to complete the extraction of dental pulp stem cells;

[0072] When the tooth clamping device 20 clamps the tooth, the lifter 21 can drive the tooth to rise and fall, the planar mover 23 can drive the tooth to move planar, and the rotating clamping member 24 can clamp the tooth and drive the tooth to rotate;

[0073] When the lifter 21 works, the execution end of the first stepping motor 216 drives the driving lead screw 217 to rotate. The driving lead screw 217 drives the positioning rod 214 to slide in the positioning sleeve 213 through the driving groove 215 connected by the nut to drive the lifting plate 22 to rise and fall. During the rising and falling process of the lifting plate 22, the guide post 212 slides in the guide sleeve 211 to increase the stability of the lifting plate 22 when rising and falling;

[0074] When the planar mover 23 is working, the execution end of the first linear module 231 drives the second linear module 232 to move, and the execution end of the second linear module 232 drives the rotating clamping member 24 to move;

[0075] When the rotating clamping member 24 is working, the execution end of the first motor 243 drives the bidirectional lead screw 244 to rotate. The bidirectional lead screw 244 drives the two first sliders 242 to approach or separate from each other. When the two first sliders 242 approach each other, the tooth to be processed is pressed between the two suction cups 246 to clamp and fix the tooth. The execution end of the second motor 247 can drive the rotating rod 245 to rotate to rotate the tooth to be processed;

[0076] The execution end of the second stepping motor 301 can drive the drive shaft 302 to rotate. The drive shaft 302 can drive the switching turntable 30 to rotate. The switching turntable 30 can move the grinding member 31 or the flushing member 32 or the grooving member 33 or the clamping and separating device 40 to the processing station to process the tooth. When the tooth is ground, the execution end of the drive motor 313 drives the grinding roller 312 to rotate through the gear, and the grinding roller 312 grinds the tooth surface;

[0077] When the tooth is grooved, the execution end of the power motor 331 drives the extension rod 332 to rotate. The extension rod 332 drives the grooving ball head 333 to rotate, and the grooving ball head 333 grooves the tooth surface;

[0078] When the tooth is cleaned, after the execution end of the drive cylinder 321 drives the finger cylinder 322 to descend to the specified position, the execution end of the finger cylinder 322 drives the two sealing boxes 323 to approach each other to form a sealed cavity. The tooth to be processed is located in the sealed cavity. The water source system connected to the water inlet pipe 324 supplies water flow, and the negative pressure system connected to the drain pipe 325 performs negative pressure suction. The water flows into the sealing box 323 through the water inlet pipe 324 to wash and clean the tooth, and the waste water after washing is discharged through the drain pipe 325;

[0079] When the tooth is separated, the tooth clamping device 20 applies an extrusion force to the tooth to be processed and maintains it for a unit time. After completion, the clamping and separating device 40 clamps the annular groove on the tooth to be processed and applies a separating force to the tooth to be processed through the tooth clamping device 20 and maintains it for a unit time to complete one tooth separation process. The tooth separation process is repeated until the tooth to be processed is separated into two halves;

[0080] When the execution end of the first motor 243 drives the two first sliders 242 to separate from each other through the bidirectional lead screw 244, a separating force is applied to the tooth to be processed. When the execution end of the first motor 243 drives the two first sliders 242 to approach each other through the bidirectional lead screw 244, an extrusion force is applied to the tooth to be processed;

[0081] When the clamping and separating device 40 is working, the first spring 43 gives an elastic thrust to the second slider 42, so that the two second sliders 42 are in contact with each other in the initial state. When the automatic card slot component 44 engages with the annular groove on the tooth, the tooth clamping device 20 drives the tooth to be processed to move until the first clamping block 4411 is inserted into the annular groove. The first electromagnetic block 445 is energized to generate a repulsive force opposite to the magnetic block 443, and the repulsive force drives the vertical rod 442 to rotate around the end hinge point until the second clamping block 4421 is inserted into the annular groove to complete the clamping work. During the process of the tooth clamping device 20 being clamped and positioned, the second electromagnetic block 452 moves correspondingly in the positioning box 451. After the tooth clamping device 20 is clamped and positioned, the second electromagnetic block 452 electromagnetically attracts the rotating rod 245. When the two first sliders 242 are separated from each other, a separating force is given to the end part of the vertical rod 442 through the second electromagnetic block 452, the positioning box 451, the extension plate 454, the arc-shaped slide rail 455 and the connecting rod 456, and a separating force is given to the cross bar 441 through the second electromagnetic block 452, the positioning box 451 and the second slider 42, so that the tooth to be processed is evenly stressed when separated.
