[0018] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to all the accompanying drawings.

[0019] Example Reference Figures 1-4 A smart bite pad integrating an opening device and a rubber barrier clamp includes a rubber barrier clamp 1. The rubber barrier clamp 1 includes two clamping arms 11 and an arc 12. The arc 12 is elastic. The two clamping arms 11 are connected by the arc 12. An adjustment arm 13 is installed on the side of the two clamping arms 11 away from each other. An adjustment port 131 is opened on the adjustment arm 13. A reinforcing arm 14 is installed on the side of the two clamping arms 11 away from the arc 12.

[0020] During oral treatment, a rubber dam is first used to isolate the affected tooth from other oral structures. The rubber dam clamp is inserted into the adjustment port 131. Under the action of the elastic arch 12, the two clamping arms 11 open and clamp the affected tooth. The rubber dam is then clamped and fixed by the reinforcing arm 14, thus opening and fixing the rubber dam in the surgical area to isolate the affected tooth. When the rubber dam clamp is released, the elastic arch 12 tightens, and the two clamping arms 11 apply pressure to the tooth surface and clamp the tooth surface.

[0021] The clamping arm 11 has a first occlusal part 6 near the arch 12. A connecting shell 3 is fixedly mounted on the top of the first occlusal part 6. A connecting port 36 is opened on the side of the connecting shell 3 away from the first occlusal part 6. A second occlusal part 7 is movably mounted on the connecting shell 3. The first occlusal part 6 and the second occlusal part 7 are made of surgical-grade addition-cured hard silicone rubber, which has controllable elastic deformation. It will slightly conform and deform under force and rebound after force is released. The surfaces of the first occlusal part 6 and the second occlusal part 7 away from each other have occlusal grooves 61 that cooperate with the patient's teeth to support the patient's oral cavity and improve the patient's comfort.

[0022] A first connecting rod 15 is fixedly connected to the end of the clamping arm 11, and a second connecting rod 62 is fixedly connected to the first engaging part 6. A first magnetic block is provided at the end of the first connecting rod 15, and a second magnetic block that cooperates with the first magnetic block is provided at the end of the second connecting rod 62. After the rubber barrier clamp 1 completes the clamping work on the rubber barrier cloth, the first connecting rod 15 and the second connecting rod 62 are connected by the first magnetic block and the second magnetic block, thereby combining the first engaging part 6, the second engaging part 7 and the rubber barrier clamp 1.

[0023] An adjustment assembly 2 for adjusting the distance between the first engagement part 6 and the second engagement part 7 is provided inside the connection port 36. The adjustment assembly 2 includes a connecting pipe 21, a rotating ring 22, and an adjusting screw 23. The connecting pipe 21 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connection port 36, the rotating ring 22 is rotatably connected to the connecting pipe 21, one end of the adjusting screw 23 passes through the rotating ring 22 and extends into the connecting pipe 21, and the adjusting screw 23 is threadedly connected to the rotating ring 22. The other end is fixedly connected to the bottom of the second engagement part 7. A first bevel gear 24 is fixedly provided on the rotating ring 22, and a rotating shaft 4 is rotatably connected to the connecting housing 3. A second bevel gear 41 that meshes with the first bevel gear 24 is provided at the end of the rotating shaft 4, and a rotating part 42 located outside the connecting housing 3 is provided at the end of the rotating shaft 4 away from the second bevel gear 41.

[0024] Rotating component 42 causes rotating shaft 4 to rotate, which in turn drives rotating ring 22 to rotate via second bevel gear 41 and first bevel gear 24. Adjusting screw 23 moves along connecting pipe 21 to adjust the distance between first occlusal part 6 and second occlusal part 7 according to the size of the patient's mouth, thereby improving the patient's comfort.

[0025] A cavity 31 is formed in the side wall of the connecting housing 3. A ratchet 32, a limiting rod 33, and a limiting spring 34 are arranged in the cavity 31. The ratchet 32 ​​is coaxially and fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 4. The middle position of the limiting rod 33 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the cavity 31 through a rotating rod 35. One end of the limiting spring 34 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cavity 31, and the other end is fixedly connected to the side wall of the limiting rod 33. When the limiting spring 34 is in its natural state, the end of the limiting rod 33 is located in the tooth gap of the ratchet 32. The rotating rod 35 passes through the connecting housing 3 and extends out of the connecting housing 3. An actuating block 8 is provided at the end of the rotating rod 35. A third magnetic block 81 located on one side of the actuating block 8 is provided on the outer wall of the connecting housing 3. A fourth magnetic block that cooperates with the third magnetic block 81 is provided on the outer wall of the connecting housing 3.

[0026] When the fourth magnetic block on the actuating block 8 is connected to the third magnetic block 81, the limiting rod 33 rotates around the rotating rod 35. The end of the limiting rod 33 away from the limiting spring 34 disengages from the ratchet 32, and the limiting spring 34 is in a stretched state. At this time, the ratchet 32 ​​can be rotated clockwise and counterclockwise, and the adjusting screw 23 can move upward or downward. When the fourth magnetic block on the actuating block 8 is separated from the third magnetic block 81, the limiting spring 34 in the stretched state is reset, so that the end of the limiting rod 33 away from the limiting spring 34 extends into the teeth of the ratchet 32, so that the ratchet 32 ​​can only rotate counterclockwise. At this time, only the adjusting screw 23 can move upward, preventing the adjusting screw 23 from moving downward, thus improving the positional stability of the first engagement part 6 and the second engagement part 7.

[0027] A cover 9 is detachably connected to one side wall of the connecting housing 3, allowing for easy maintenance and replacement of components installed inside the connecting housing 3 by opening the cover 9. A connecting ring 5 is provided on the outside of the connecting housing 3, and a saliva suction device 51 is installed inside the connecting ring 5. The saliva suction device 51 is used to remove oral fluid, keep the surgical area dry and clear, and ensure the effectiveness of the diagnostic and treatment operation.

[0028] The working principle of this invention is as follows: the rubber barrier is clamped and fixed by the rubber barrier clamp 1, the rotating ring 22 is rotated, the adjusting screw 23 is moved along the connecting pipe 21, and the distance between the first occlusal part 6 and the second occlusal part 7 is adjusted according to the size of the patient's mouth. The patient bites on the first occlusal part 6 and the second occlusal part 7 to support the patient's mouth and improve the patient's comfort.

[0029] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
