[0037] Example:
[0038] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown:
[0039] A scraper comprises a handle 1 and a working tip 2; wherein:
[0040] The working tip 2 is movably arranged at the front end of the handle 1 , and a pressure sensor 13 for monitoring the scraping pressure is arranged between the working tip 2 and the handle 1 , and the pressure sensor 13 is connected to the terminal 3 for signal.
[0041] A pressure sensor 13 is provided on the handle 1 of the scraper, which can monitor the force applied by medical staff to the patient's periodontium when the scraper is in use, and transmit the force information to the terminal 3 for external display. The medical staff can understand the scraping force through the force information displayed on the terminal 3, and can also adjust or maintain the scraping force through the force information displayed on the terminal 3 to ensure the safety and accuracy of periodontal treatment.
[0042] The pressure sensor 13 in the scaler provides the doctor with real-time feedback of the operating pressure, thereby optimizing the treatment result.
[0043] It should be noted that the terminal 3 is a smart phone or a computer, the handle 1 is provided with a wireless transmission module 17, the pressure sensor 13 is connected to the wireless transmission module 17 by signal, and the pressure sensor 13 is connected to the smart phone or the computer by signal through the wireless transmission module 17, so as to transmit the monitored pressure information to the smart phone or the computer and display it externally;
[0044] The connection method between the wireless transmission module 17 and the terminal 3 may be Bluetooth, infrared, WIFI or other commonly used wireless connection methods in the prior art.
[0045] Specifically, the front end of the handle 1 is provided with a mounting hole 11, and there are two groups of pressure sensors 13, and both groups of pressure sensors 13 are arranged in the mounting hole 11;
[0046] The tail end of the working tip 2 is inserted into the mounting hole 11, and the middle part of the working tip 2 is hinged to the opening of the mounting hole 11 through the hinge shaft 12, see Figure 3 , the axis of the hinge shaft 12 is perpendicular to the axis of the handle 1, two groups of pressure sensors 13 are arranged near the tail of the working tip 2, and the two groups of pressure sensors 13 are respectively located on both sides of the hinge shaft 12;
[0047] When the medical staff uses the scaler to scale the patient's periodontium, the medical staff will squeeze the scaling side of the working tip 2 against the patient's periodontium to scale. Figure 4 ;
[0048] At this time, the working tip 2 of the scraper will be affected by the reaction force when squeezing the periodontium and rotate around the hinge shaft 12, so that the tail end of the working tip 2 squeezes the pressure sensor 13 in the direction close to the patient's teeth. The pressure sensor 13 will monitor the pressure information of the working tip 2 and transmit the monitored pressure information to the terminal 3 for display. Medical staff can know the scraping pressure through the displayed value, and adjust or maintain it to ensure the safety and accuracy of periodontal treatment.
[0049] The two groups of pressure sensors 13 are mainly used to monitor the pressure when the scaler is used to scrape the buccal and lingual sides of the periodontal tissues, so as to make the use of the scaler more convenient.
[0050] It should be noted that during the scaling process, the scaling side of the working tip 2 needs to be pressed against the periodontium to facilitate the scraping of the infection on the periodontium, and the scaling pressure should be less than 10N. If the scaling pressure is greater than 10N, the terminal 3 will send a warning signal to prompt the medical staff to adjust the scaling pressure to avoid causing harm to the patient;
[0051] Figure 3 There is no gap between the pressure sensor 13 and the end of the working tip 2, Figure 3 The gap in the middle is only for easier understanding of the matching relationship between the pressure sensor 13 and the end of the working tip 2; during the scraping process, the axis of the working tip 2 always coincides with the axis of the handle 1.
[0052] Optimally, the working tip 2 of the scraper is provided with scale marks, and the scale marks are arranged at equal intervals from the end of the working tip 2 away from the handle 1 to the end close to the handle 1. Medical staff can know the depth of the working tip 2 extending into the periodontal pocket through the scale marks on the working tip 2, and control the depth and distance of the working tip 2 entering the periodontal pocket during scraping to ensure safety during scraping.
[0053] Optimally, the scraper further comprises a camera 14, which is arranged at the front end of the handle 1. Figure 3 , and the camera 14 is signal-connected to the terminal 3;
[0054] The camera 14 can collect image information of the teeth and send the image information to the terminal 3, which is then displayed externally, so that medical staff can clearly see the periodontal condition in the blind spot of the patient's oral cavity (narrow area) to better complete periodontal treatment.
[0055] Optimally, the scaling device also includes an illumination lamp 15, which is arranged at the front end of the handle 1. The illumination lamp 15 can emit bright light to illuminate the patient's oral cavity, so that the camera 14 can collect images and the medical staff can perform periodontal treatment.
[0056] It should be noted that there can be multiple lighting lamps 15, and the multiple lighting lamps 15 are arranged around the circumference of the mounting hole 11 to better illuminate the patient's mouth.
[0057] Optimally, the scraper further comprises a posture sensor (not shown in the figure) for collecting posture information of the scraper;
[0058] The posture sensor is arranged in the handle 1 , and the posture sensor is connected to the terminal 3 via a signal.
[0059] As a specific implementation of this embodiment, the above-mentioned camera 14 cooperates with the posture sensor to monitor the relative position of the scaler and the patient's teeth. The specific monitoring method is as follows:
[0060] The medical staff inserts the working tip 2 of the scaler into the patient's mouth for scaling. At this time, the camera 14 collects image information of the patient's teeth and sends the information to the terminal 3, which analyzes and determines the long axis of the tooth (the axis of the tooth).
[0061] At the same time, the posture sensor in the handle 1 monitors the position status information of the handle 1 (information that the axis of the handle 1 is in a vertical horizontal plane, parallel to the horizontal plane, or at an angle to the horizontal plane), and sends the information to the terminal 3, which compares the long axis of the tooth with the axis of the handle 1;
[0062] If the axis of handle 1 is parallel to the long axis of the tooth, Figure 4 As shown, the terminal 3 will not have any prompts, and the medical staff can maintain this state and continue to perform periodontal scaling (the axis of the handle 1 is parallel to the long axis of the tooth to maximize the scaling effect of the scaler);
[0063] If there is an angle between the axis of the handle 1 and the long axis of the tooth, the terminal 3 will display the angle information of the two axes and send out a warning signal. The medical staff can adjust the state of the handle 1 according to the prompt of the terminal 3 to ensure the correctness of the real-time position and use angle of the scaler during the scaling process, thereby ensuring the scaling effect of the scaler as well as the safety and accuracy of the scaling.
[0064] Optimally, the scraper also includes a power supply assembly 16; wherein,
[0065] The power supply assembly 16 is arranged in the handle 1, and the power supply assembly 16 is electrically connected to the pressure sensor 13, the camera 14, the lighting lamp 15 and the posture sensor through the on-off switch; the pressure sensor 13, the camera 14, the lighting lamp 15 and the posture sensor can be started and shut down through the on-off switch, so that the use of the scraper is more convenient.
[0066] Specifically, the power supply assembly 16 includes a wireless charging module and a battery;
[0067] The wireless charging module is electrically connected to the battery, and the battery is electrically connected to the pressure sensor 13, the camera 14, the lighting lamp 15 and the posture sensor through the on-off switch.
[0068] The scaler is not only suitable for clinical treatment, but also can be a teaching tool. The scaler can realize data recording and analysis functions through its integrated pressure sensor 13, camera 14 and posture sensor, and cooperate with the terminal 3. It can be used to demonstrate the correct scaling method in a teaching environment and provide feedback when students practice, so that students can quickly and correctly master the means of periodontal treatment.
[0069] In addition, the system can be used in examination scenarios, by displaying and recording the examinee's scaling process and scaling method on the terminal 3, so as to objectively evaluate the examinee's operating skills.
[0070] The above is only a specific implementation of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model, which should be included in the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
