Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of denture manufacturing, and particularly relates to a three-dimensional scanning mechanism for dentures. Background Art

[0002] Denture manufacturing is to fabricate artificial teeth and their supporting structures through various technologies and materials to replace missing natural teeth, thereby restoring the patient's chewing function, pronunciation clarity, and facial aesthetics. After the denture is fabricated, it is usually placed in the patient's oral cavity for trial fitting. According to the trial fitting effect, the doctor will make necessary adjustments to the denture, such as grinding, polishing, etc., to ensure its comfort and adaptability. At the same time, the functions such as occlusion and pronunciation of the denture will also be checked to ensure that it meets the patient's daily needs. During the manufacturing process of the denture, a three-dimensional scanner is usually required to scan the shape of the denture and collect data.

[0003] In the prior art, when scanning a denture, it is mostly placed on the placement table of a three-dimensional scanner, and data collection is achieved through the rotation of the denture and the capture of the three-dimensional scanning lens. Generally, after the denture is placed, the existing three-dimensional scanner can only rotate it in one direction. Therefore, when it is necessary to scan the bottom of the denture to supplement the data of the gum and tooth root at the bottom, the staff needs to turn the denture around and scan it again. During this process, the staff needs to re-clamp the denture and re-align the three-dimensional scanning lens. As a result, the staff needs to spend a long time on the clamping of the denture and the adjustment of the lens, which will affect the efficiency during batch scanning. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides a three-dimensional scanning mechanism for dentures to solve the problems presented in the above background art.

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

[0006] A three-dimensional scanning mechanism for dentures includes a base. A mounting frame is fixedly installed on the top surface of the base. A mounting seat is slidably connected to the top surface of the base. An installation disk is arranged inside the mounting frame. A three-dimensional scanner is fixedly installed inside the installation disk. A PLC controller is highly installed on the top surface of the base. The three-dimensional scanner is electrically connected to the PLC controller;

[0007] A first lead screw is rotatably connected inside the base. A first connecting seat is threadedly connected to the outer circumferential wall of the first lead screw. The top surface of the first connecting seat is fixedly installed with the mounting seat;

[0008] Two connecting frames, two of the connecting frames are respectively rotatably connected to both sides inside the mounting base. One side of the mounting base is fixedly installed with a stepper motor, the stepper motor is electrically connected to the PLC controller, one end of the drive shaft of the stepper motor is fixedly installed with the connecting frame, an installation frame is arranged between the two connecting frames, two clamping plates are arranged inside the installation frame, and one side of each of the two clamping plates is rotatably connected with an adjusting bolt, and the adjusting bolt is threadedly connected with the installation frame.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, during use, the staff rotates the first lead screw, and then under the threaded transmission action of the first lead screw and the first connecting seat, the first connecting seat will drive the mounting base to move and make it leave directly below the 3D scanner. Then the staff rotates the two adjusting bolts. At this time, under the threaded transmission action of the adjusting bolts and the installation frame, the two clamping plates will move away from each other. Then the staff places the denture between the two clamping plates and clamps it through the two adjusting bolts. After the above steps are completed, the staff reversely rotates the first lead screw to place the clamped and fixed denture directly below the 3D scanner. Then the staff starts the 3D scanner through the PLC controller to perform 3D scanning on the denture. During this process, the staff can start the stepper motor and the two second electric motors through the PLC controller. Then the rotation of the drive shaft of the stepper motor will drive the two connecting frames, the installation frame and the denture inside it to rotate. Then the 3D scanner can perform 3D scanning on the bottom of the denture. At the same time, the rotation of the drive shaft of the second electric motor will drive the second lead screw to rotate. Then under the threaded transmission action of the second lead screw and the moving seat, the moving seat will perform linear movement. Then the moving moving seat will drive the connecting rod to move. At this time, the connecting rod will rotate along with one side of the moving seat to push the sliding rod to move. Then the moving sliding rod will drive the connecting plate to move and compress the fourth spring. At the same time, the moving sliding rod will push the installation frame to make it rotate. In this way, through the self-rotation of the installation frame and the flipping driven by the two connecting frames, the denture can be rotated at multiple angles for 3D scanning, so as to achieve the effect of avoiding multiple clamping and calibration of the denture during 3D scanning.

[0010] Preferably, transmission boxes are respectively fixedly installed on one side inside the two connecting frames. A second lead screw is rotatably connected inside the transmission box. A moving seat is slidably connected inside the transmission box. The moving seat is threadedly connected with the second lead screw.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, when the staff uses the 3D scanner for 3D scanning, the staff uses the first electric motor. Then, the rotation of the driving shaft of the first electric motor will drive the transmission gear to rotate. Then, under the meshing transmission of the transmission gear and the teeth of the toothed ring, the toothed ring will rotate accordingly. Then, the rotation of the toothed ring will drive the second mounting cap, the threaded cap and the base at its bottom to rotate. At this time, the clamping sleeve will be stuck between the threaded cap and the second mounting cap and the second connecting column will squeeze the third spring. Then, the squeezed threaded cap will drive the resisting column to move downward. Then, during the rotation of the resisting column, it will continuously contact the top of the mounting disc and make it tilt. Then, the 3D scanner will tilt at an angle accordingly and scan the denture. At the same time, the resilience force of the first spring will keep the mounting disc reset after use.

Then, under the action of the arc-shaped surfaces of the two adjusting blocks, the adjusting blocks will push against the tapping frame to make it rotate, so as to adjust the irradiation directions of the multiple supplementary lights.

[0020] Preferably, bellows are respectively fixedly installed on both sides of the moving base, and one side of the bellows is fixedly installed with the transmission box.

[0027] By adopting the above technical solution, it is convenient to improve the service life of the mounting disc and the abutting column.

[0028] In summary, the present invention mainly has the following beneficial effects:

[0029] The rotation of the drive shaft of the stepper motor will drive the two connecting frames, the mounting frame and the denture inside it to rotate. Then, the 3D scanner can perform a 3D scan on the bottom of the denture. At the same time, the rotation of the drive shaft of the second electric motor will drive the second lead screw to rotate, and then the moving seat will move linearly.

Then, under the thread driving action of the first lead screw 23 and the first connecting seat 24, the first connecting seat 24 will drive the mounting seat 3 to move and move it away from directly below the 3D scanner 6. Then, the operator rotates two adjusting bolts 37.
