Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular to an oral cavity spreader. Background Art

[0002] The oral cavity is the starting part of the digestive tract. It is connected to the outside world through the fissure in the front and connected to the pharynx through the isthmus in the back. There are organs such as teeth and tongue in the oral cavity. The front wall of the oral cavity is the lip, the side wall is the cheek, the top is the palate, and the floor of the oral cavity is the mucosa and muscle structures. The oral cavity is divided into the oral vestibule in the anterior and lateral part and the proper oral cavity in the posterior and medial part by the upper and lower dental arches; when the upper and lower teeth are occluded, the oral vestibule and the proper oral cavity can communicate through the gap behind the third molar. In clinical practice, when the patient's teeth are tightly closed, an opener or intubation can be placed through this channel to inject drugs or nutrients, while preventing tongue bites.

[0003] For some patients, an oral retractor is needed to open the patient's mouth for later cleaning. However, the oral retractor in the prior art can only open the oral cavity on both sides. For some patients with lesions in the upper or lower jaw, if the oral retractor is used on both sides, the patient may easily feel extremely uncomfortable. Summary of the invention

[0004] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides an oral retractor, which solves the problem that the oral retractor in the prior art can only open the oral cavity on both sides, and for some patients with lesions in the upper or lower jaw, if bilateral opening is performed, the patients may easily feel extremely uncomfortable.

[0005] The above technical objectives of the present invention are achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0006] An oral retractor comprises a main body, a first side opening is formed on one side of the main body, a first fixing frame is fixedly connected to the top of the first side opening, a first support plate is rotatably connected to the first fixing frame, a groove adapted to the patient's teeth is formed on one side of the first support plate, a holding rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the main body, a rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the holding rod, a retracting structure for rotating the support plate is provided on the main body, the retracting structure can rotate the position of the first support plate after the rotating shaft is rotated, and a fixing structure for fixing the rotation angle of the rotating shaft is provided on the holding rod.

[0007] By setting up the main body, when in use, the staff can extend the main body into the patient's mouth to allow the patient's teeth to be in the grooves. When the patient's mouth needs to be stretched, the staff can rotate the shaft. The rotation of the shaft can use the stretching structure to rotate the position of the first support plate, so that the first support plate rotates with the first fixed frame as the center of rotation, and the patient's upper jaw or lower jaw is moved away from the main body, thereby achieving the effect of unilaterally stretching the patient's upper jaw or lower jaw. At the same time, the fixed structure set after the rotation of the shaft can fix the angle of the shaft after rotation, thereby avoiding the problem of failure of the oral stretching caused by the first support plate being reset after the patient's mouth is stretched due to discomfort and relaxation.

[0008] Preferably, the support structure includes a first rotating cavity opened on one side of the first side opening, a first rotating rod is rotatably connected to the inner side of the main body, one end of the first rotating rod extends into the first rotating cavity and is fixedly connected to a first paddle, the other end of the first rotating rod is fixedly connected to a first bevel gear, and the top of the rotating shaft is fixedly connected to a second bevel gear meshing with the first bevel gear.

[0009] By setting the first bevel gear, when the staff rotates the shaft, the rotation of the shaft can rotate the position of the first rotating rod through the second bevel gear and the first bevel gear. The rotation of the first rotating rod can rotate the first paddle, so that the first paddle touches the position of the first support plate, thereby achieving the effect of rotating the position of the first support plate.

[0010] Preferably, a second side opening is opened on one side of the main body, a second fixing frame is fixedly connected to the top of the second side opening, a second support plate is rotatably connected to the second fixing frame, a second rotating cavity is opened in the second side opening, a second rotating rod is rotatably connected to one side of the main body, one end of the second rotating rod is fixedly connected to a third bevel gear matched with the second bevel gear, one end of the second rotating rod is connected to a connecting rod, the connecting rod extends into the second rotating cavity and is fixedly connected to a second paddle.

[0011] By setting a second rotating rod, when the staff rotates the rotating shaft, the rotation of the rotating shaft can drive the second rotating rod to rotate through the second bevel gear and the third bevel gear. The rotation of the second rotating rod can drive the second paddle to touch the position of the second support plate through the connecting rod, so that the second support plate can be rotated. When the first support plate rotates to support the upper jaw, the second support plate can rotate to support the lower jaw, thereby achieving the effect of opening the oral cavity on both sides.

[0012] Preferably, a limiting groove is provided on one side of the second rotating rod, one end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to a limiting rod slidably mounted on the limiting groove, one end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to a first magnet, one end of the second rotating rod is fixedly connected to a second magnet, and a first spring is connected between the limiting rod and the limiting groove.

[0013] By setting the second magnet, in the initial state, the third bevel gear and the second bevel gear are in a meshing state. In this state, rotating the shaft can rotate the first rotating rod and the second rotating rod to open the mouth on both sides. When only one side of the mouth needs to be opened, the staff can move the position of the second rotating rod so that the second rotating rod is close to the connecting rod, allowing the first magnet and the second magnet to be magnetically attracted and the third bevel gear and the second bevel gear to be disengaged. In this way, the position of the second rotating rod can be fixed, so that the second rotating rod is not interfered with when the shaft rotates, and the effect of only needing to open one side of the mouth can be achieved.

[0014] Preferably, the fixing structure includes a first gear fixedly sleeved on the outside of the rotating shaft, a fixing rod fixedly connected to the top of the holding rod, a second gear rotatably sleeved on the outside of the fixing rod that meshes with the first gear, a ratchet fixedly connected to the top of the second gear, a top cover connected to the top of the fixing rod, and a plurality of ratchet pawls adapted to the ratchet rotatably connected to the inner side wall of the top cover.

[0015] By setting the first gear, when the shaft rotates, the rotation of the shaft can drive the first gear to rotate, and the rotation of the first gear can rotate the position of the second gear and the ratchet. The pawl set after the ratchet rotates can limit the position of the ratchet and prevent the ratchet from reversing, thereby achieving the angle of the fixed shaft after rotation, avoiding the problem of the patient's upper and lower jaws applying force to cause the first support plate and the second support plate to be reset.

[0016] Preferably, the top of the fixing rod is fixedly connected to a first support rod, the top of the first support rod is fixedly connected to a positioning rod, the inner top surface of the top cover is fixedly connected to a second support rod, the bottom of the second support rod is provided with a positioning groove slidably connected to the positioning rod, and a second spring is connected between the first support rod and the second support rod.

[0017] By setting up a second support rod, when it is necessary to relax the patient's mouth, the staff can lift the top cover upwards, so that the second support rod moves upwards to stretch the second spring, and the pawl leaves the ratchet. At this time, the ratchet no longer reels in the line and can rotate in the opposite direction, thereby resetting the positions of the first support plate and the second support plate, thereby achieving the effect of relaxing the patient's mouth.

[0018] Preferably, a rotating disk is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating shaft, and the rotating disk is located at the bottom of the holding rod.

[0019] By setting up a turntable, it is possible for the staff to conveniently rotate the position of the shaft.

[0020] Preferably, a fixed tube is fixedly connected to one side of the interior of the main body, and the first rotating rod, the second rotating rod and the rotating shaft are rotatably connected to the fixed tube.

[0021] By providing the fixing tube, the positions of the first rotating rod, the second rotating rod and the rotating shaft can be restricted, which can increase the stability of the three during rotation.

[0022] In summary, the present invention mainly has the following beneficial effects:

[0023] By setting up the main body, when in use, the staff can extend the main body into the patient's mouth to allow the patient's teeth to be in the grooves. When the patient's mouth needs to be stretched, the staff can rotate the shaft. The rotation of the shaft can use the stretching structure to rotate the position of the first support plate, so that the support plate rotates with the fixed frame as the center of rotation, and the patient's upper jaw or lower jaw is moved away from the main body, thereby achieving the effect of unilaterally stretching the patient's upper jaw or lower jaw. At the same time, the fixed structure set after the rotation of the shaft can fix the angle of the shaft after rotation, thereby avoiding the problem of failure of the oral stretching due to the first support plate being reset after the patient's mouth is stretched due to discomfort and relaxation.
