Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of medical devices, and more specifically, to an oral examination device. Background Technology

[0002] The oral cavity is the starting point of the digestive tract. It connects to the outside through the mouth fissure anteriorly and continues to the pharynx posteriorly via the pharyngeal isthmus. The oral cavity contains organs such as teeth and tongue. The anterior wall of the oral cavity is the lip, the lateral walls are the cheeks, the roof is the palate, and the floor consists of mucosa and muscle structures. The oral cavity is divided into the anterolateral oral vestibule and the posteromedial oral cavity by the upper and lower dental arches. When the upper and lower teeth are occlusal, the oral vestibule and the oral cavity proper communicate through the space behind the third molar. Clinically, when a patient has trismus, this passage can be used to insert an oral gag or intubation tube to administer medication or nutrients, while also preventing tongue biting. A tooth gap measuring ruler is used in oral care and treatment. This ruler is one of the instruments used to check the interdental spaces. When using it, the ruler is inserted into the interdental space and pulled back and forth. Slight resistance indicates that the gap value is close to the value marked on the ruler. If the resistance is too great or too little, the gap value is less than or greater than the value marked on the ruler.

[0003] Existing dental interparticle measuring rulers consist of stainless steel sheets of various thicknesses and rivets. These sheets are fixed together by rivets. During testing, the thinnest sheet is usually used first, and then other sizes of stainless steel sheets are gradually replaced to increase the thickness. However, the stainless steel sheets are very thin, and it is difficult to select the right size when all the sheets are stacked together. Moreover, the testing process relies too much on human touch and experience, resulting in a large measurement error. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a dental examination device.

[0017] 3. Beneficial effects Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this invention are: 1. By pressing the adjuster, the adjuster moves the push component to the left. The push component applies a leftward thrust to the corresponding power base, causing the power base to move out with the corresponding measuring feeler gauge. The limiting structure restricts the pin structure, which in turn restricts the adjuster and the moved measuring feeler gauge, allowing medical personnel to use it for testing. By pressing the adjuster again, the measuring feeler gauge retracts. Through the offset structure, the adjuster drives the selection mechanism to move during the retraction of the measuring feeler gauge. The moving selection mechanism moves the push component, causing it to move away from the right side of one power base and align with the adjacent power base. This achieves the purpose of selecting the measuring feeler gauge. The selection method is simple, convenient, quick, and easy to operate, improving the practicality of the oral examination device.

[0018] 2. The monitoring mechanism can visually express the resistance between the target measuring feeler gauge and the patient's teeth, allowing examiners to more intuitively know whether the resistance experienced by the measuring feeler gauge meets the standard. This avoids relying too much on tactile experience during the examination process, increases the accuracy of the examination, and improves the practicality of the oral examination device.

Figure 2 An adjuster 4 is provided at the right end of the retracted outer square tube 11. The adjuster 4 includes an adjusting push plate 43, which is slidably inserted into the interior of the retracted outer square tube 11. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 6 A pushing component 5 is provided on the left side of the adjusting push plate 43. The pushing component 5 includes a pushing rod 54, which is movably inserted into the left side of the adjusting push plate 43. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 8 The push rod 54 is externally equipped with a positioning mechanism 6, which includes a positioning slide plate 62. The positioning slide plate 62 has a positioning through hole 65. The push rod 54 is slidably inserted into the positioning through hole 65. A positioning guide post 63 is also movably inserted into the positioning slide plate 62. The end of the positioning guide post 63 is movably sleeved on the inner wall of the retracted outer square tube 11. The end of the positioning guide post 63 has an offset structure 7. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 9 The offset structure 7 includes an offset ratchet 71, which is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the selection guide post 63. (See also...) Figure 10 The adjusting push plate 43 has a pin structure 8 inside, which includes a pin rod 85. The pin rod 85 is movably inserted into the adjusting push plate 43. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 Limiting structures 9 are provided on both the upper and lower surfaces of the inner cavity of the retracted outer square tube 11. Please refer to [the relevant documentation]. Figure 10-11The limiting structure 9 includes a limiting thickening plate 901, which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the retracted outer square tube 11.

[0023] Please see Figure 4 The power base 2 also includes a power slot 22, which is located on the left side of the power slider 21. A power groove 23 is formed on the inner wall of the power slot 22, and an elastic strip 24 is fixedly embedded inside the power groove 23. An insertion slit 25 is formed on the left side of the elastic strip 24. The power base 2 also includes an expansion opening 26, which is located on the left side of the power slider 21 and communicates with the insertion slit 25. The right end of the measuring gauge 32 is movably inserted into the expansion opening 26 and the insertion slit 25. The elasticity of the elastic strip 24 is used to apply pressure to the measuring gauge 32, increasing the displacement resistance of the measuring gauge 32. This resistance is greater than the resistance between the measuring gauge 32 and the patient's teeth, ensuring that the measuring gauge 32 does not disengage from the oral examination device during interdental measurement. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 3 There are seven measuring feeler gauges 32, and the thickness of the seven measuring feeler gauges 32 increases sequentially. There are seven power sliders 21, and the seven power sliders 21 correspond one-to-one with the seven measuring feeler gauges 32. The push rod 54 is adapted to the power slider 21. When the ratchet 75 is activated, the offset ratchet 71 is rotated once, which will move the end of the push rod 54 from the right side of one power slider 21 to the right side of another adjacent power slider 21.

[0024] Please see Figure 4 The replacement component 3 also includes friction-enhancing protrusions 33. There are multiple friction-enhancing protrusions 33, which are respectively connected to the upper and lower surfaces of the measuring feeler gauge 32. The friction-enhancing protrusions 33 are movably inserted into the inside of the insertion slit 25, further increasing the displacement resistance of the measuring feeler gauge 32. This resistance is much greater than the resistance between the measuring feeler gauge 32 and the patient's teeth, ensuring that the measuring feeler gauge 32 will not detach from the oral examination device during the measurement of interdental spaces.

[0025] Please see Figure 5The replacement component 3 also includes an insert groove 34, which is formed on the top surface of the inner cavity of the spliced ​​flat tube 31. A C-shaped elastic element 35 is fixedly installed inside the insert groove 34. The C-shaped elastic element 35 is fastened to the outside of the measuring feeler gauge 32. The elastic force of the C-shaped elastic element 35 applies pressure to the measuring feeler gauge 32, which can further increase the resistance to the measuring feeler gauge 32 and prevent the measuring feeler gauge 32 from falling off. On the other hand, it provides a certain clamping force for the measuring feeler gauge 32 so that when the replacement component 3 is disassembled, the measuring feeler gauge 32 can be clamped off. Ruler 32 will not slide out of the splicing flat tube 31. Replacement component 3 also includes locking holes 36. There are two locking holes 36, which are respectively opened on the upper and lower surfaces of the splicing flat tube 31. A locking bolt 37 is movably inserted into the locking hole 36 on the top surface of the splicing flat tube 31.

[0033] Working principle: First, pinch the retracted outer square tube 11, then apply leftward pressure to the adjusting cap 42. Next, the adjusting cap 42 moves the adjusting rod 41 to the left. Then, the adjusting rod 41 moves the adjusting push plate 43 to the left. The adjusting push plate 43 pulls the adjusting spring 44 and moves the pushing rod 54 to the left, simultaneously moving the adjusting push plate 43 to the left, along with the trigger spring 74. Then, the trigger spring 74 moves the trigger ratchet 75 to the left. The trigger ratchet 75 then contacts the offset ratchet 71, and the offset spring 73 engages with the offset ratchet 71 in one direction, preventing the offset ratchet 71 from rotating clockwise. The offset ratchet 71 then applies downward pressure to the trigger spring 74 through the trigger ratchet 75. The end of the trigger spring 74 then bends downward, and the trigger ratchet 75... 5. After passing the offset ratchet 71, the trigger spring 74, under its own elastic force, flips upward with the trigger ratchet 75 until the trigger spring 74 returns to a straight state. Then, the left end of the push rod 54 contacts the right side of the first power slider 21 and applies a leftward pushing force to it. Then, the power slider 21 moves to the left. Then, the power slider 21 pulls the retraction spring 15 through the retraction slide 14. Then, the retraction spring 15 is elastically stretched, and the elastic potential energy increases. Then, the first power slider 21 moves to the left with the corresponding measuring feeler gauge 32. Then, the measuring feeler gauge 32 extends to the left. During this process, the adjusting push plate 43 slides to the left through the pin sliding hole 84 with the pin rod 85 in the limiting long straight slide groove 902. Then, the pin rod 85 enters the M-shaped variable... The sliding groove 903 contacts the first guide slope 904, which then guides the pin 85. The pin 85 then slides along the first guide slope 904 into the first reversing angle 905. Simultaneously, the pin 85, along with the pin slider 82, slides inside the pin cavity 81. Afterwards, the adjusting cap 42 is released, and the adjusting push plate 43, under the elastic pull of the adjusting spring 44, returns a short distance to the right. Then, the adjusting push plate 43, along with the pin 85, moves from the first reversing angle 905 to the right and onto the second guide slope 906. The pin 85 then slides along the second guide slope 906 into the second reversing angle 907. During this process, the retractable slider 14 is elastically pulled by the retractable spring 15. Under the action of force, the measuring feeler gauge 32 moves a short distance to the right via the power base 2 until the power slider 21 contacts the end of the push rod 54. Then, the retractable outer square tube 11 is pinched and the end of the measuring feeler gauge 32 is inserted into the patient's interdental space. Next, the acupressure plate 105 is pinched and the retractable outer square tube 11 is released. Then, a rightward pushing force is applied to the acupressure plate 105. The acupressure plate 105 then moves to the right along with the U-shaped slider 104. Next, the U-shaped slider 104 pulls the monitoring spring 103. Then, the monitoring spring 103 stretches elastically and applies a rightward pulling force to the monitoring vertical plate 101. Then, the monitoring vertical plate 101 applies a rightward pulling force to the retractable outer square tube 11. Then, the retractable outer square tube 11 is pulled to the right by the retraction force bar 16 and the retraction spring 15.Then, the retracting spring 15 pulls the retracting slide 14 to the right, and the retracting slide 14 moves the power slider 21 to the right. Then, the power slider 21 moves the measuring feeler gauge 32 to the right. The resistance experienced by the measuring feeler gauge 32 is related to the elastic elongation of the monitoring spring 103. Then, the indicator arrow 106 remains to the left of the scale line 107 during the process of the measuring feeler gauge 32 sliding out of the tooth gap, indicating that the measuring feeler gauge 32 is too thin and needs to be replaced with a thicker measuring feeler gauge 32. Then, the adjusting cap 42 is pressed, and then the adjusting push plate 43 moves the pin rod 85 from the second deflection angle 907 to the left and moves to the third guide slope 908. Then, the pin 85, guided by the third guide slope 908, enters the third reversing angle 909. Next, the adjusting cap 42 is released. Then, under the elastic tension of the adjusting spring 44, the adjusting push plate 43 moves the pin 85 from the third reversing angle 909 to the right and into the limiting short straight slide groove 910. The pin 85 then slides from the limiting short straight slide groove 910 to the reset short slide groove 911. Next, the pin 85 moves from the reset short slide groove 911 into the limiting long straight slide groove 902. Then, the pin 85 moves to the right within the limiting long straight slide groove 902. Finally, the adjusting push plate 43 contacts the limiting stop pin 45, causing the pin 85 and the adjusting push plate 43 to... The movement stops. During this process, the corresponding retractable slider 14, under the action of the retractable spring 15, moves the power slider 21 to the right. Then, the power slider 21 moves the measuring feeler gauge 32 to the right. After that, the power slider 21 returns to its rightward position. Then, the end of the push rod 54 separates from the power slider 21. Next, the adjusting push plate 43 moves to the right via the trigger spring 74, which in turn moves the trigger ratchet 75 to the right. The trigger ratchet 75 engages with the offset ratchet 71 in one direction. Then, the offset ratchet 71 rotates counterclockwise. Then, the offset ratchet 71 rotates the selection guide post 63. Then, the selection guide post 63 engages with the selection slide plate 62 through the reciprocating threaded groove 64. The push rod 54 moves vertically inwards along the paper for a certain distance, then triggers the ratchet 75 to separate from the offset ratchet 71, causing the selection slide plate 62 to stop moving. At this point, the end of the push rod 54 aligns with the second power slider 21, completing one test. Next, press the adjustment cap 42 to bring out the measuring feeler gauge 32 corresponding to the second power slider 21. Use this measuring feeler gauge 32 to test the interdental gap. Repeat the above process until the indicator arrow 106 is positioned between the two marked graduation lines 107 during the sliding of the measuring feeler gauge 32 from the interdental gap. The thickness of the measuring feeler gauge 32 at this point is the result of the interdental gap test.
