[0023] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned purpose, features and advantages of the utility model, the utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0024] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways than those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments of the following disclosure.

[0025] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, an oral endoscope comprises an endoscope body 1, on which a protective mechanism 2 is arranged;

[0026] The protection mechanism 2 includes two cylindrical grooves 201, each of which is provided with a connecting rod 202 inside, the outer surfaces of the two connecting rods 202 are rotatably sleeved with a rotating plate 203, the opposite sides of the two rotating plates 203 are provided with a sliding groove 204, a slider 205 is slidably connected between the insides of the two sliding grooves 204, the top and the bottom of the slider 205 are provided with a placement groove 206, and a soft pad 207 is bonded and connected inside each placement groove 206, the outer surfaces of the two connecting rods 202 are movably sleeved with a rubber damping ring 208, the opposite sides of the two rubber damping rings 208 are respectively in contact with the front surface of the endoscope body 1 and the rear surface of the endoscope body 1, and the opposite sides of the two rubber damping rings 208 are respectively in contact with the opposite sides of the two rotating plates 203, and the two cylindrical grooves 201 They are respectively opened on the front surface of the endoscope body 1 and the rear surface of the endoscope body 1, wherein the bottom of one of the cushions 207 contacts the surface of the endoscope body 1, and an auxiliary mechanism 3 is arranged on the endoscope body 1, the auxiliary mechanism 3 comprises two T-slots 301, each of which is slidably connected to a T-block 302, a flat plate 303 is fixed between one side of the two T-blocks 302, a first magnetic buckle 304 is fixedly embedded on the opposite side of the two T-blocks 302, a second magnetic buckle 305 is fixedly embedded on the inner wall of the two T-slots 301, the two T-slots 301 are opened on one side of the endoscope body 1, a side of the flat plate 303 close to the T-block 302 contacts one side of the endoscope body 1, and the opposite sides of the two first magnetic buckles 304 contact the opposite sides of the two second magnetic buckles 305 respectively.

[0027] The effect achieved is that when the endoscope body 1 needs to be used, the two rotating plates 203 are first rotated 180 degrees. At this time, the rotating two rotating plates 203 will drive the slider 205 and the two soft pads 207 to move together, and at the same time, the surface of one of the soft pads 207 will be separated from the surface of the endoscope body 1. When the surface of the other soft pad 207 contacts the surface of the endoscope body 1 and the rotating plate 203 is still rotating, the slider 205 will slide inside the slide groove 204. When the slider 205 slides inside the slide groove 204 until it can no longer slide, the two rotating plates 203 have completed a 180-degree rotation, and the surface of the other soft pad 207 is just completely in contact with the surface of the endoscope body 1. At this time, under the action of the two rubber damping rings 208, the two rotating plates 203 can be prevented from automatically rotating when there is no medical staff operating, and then the medical staff can use the oral endoscope body. 1 is used to examine the patient's oral cavity. When the oral endoscope body 1 is finished, the oral endoscope body 1 is first disinfected, and then the above-mentioned operation steps are reversed to reset the above-mentioned components to their original positions. When the endoscope body 1 needs to be charged, the flat plate 303 is first moved to one side of the endoscope body 1. At this time, the moving flat plate 303 will drive the two T-shaped blocks 302 to move inside the two T-shaped grooves 301 respectively, and the two moving T-shaped blocks 302 will drive the first magnetic buckles 304 connected thereto to move. At this time, the two moving first magnetic buckles 304 will be separated from the corresponding second magnetic buckles 305, and then the endoscope body 1 can be charged. When the endoscope body 1 is charged, the above-mentioned operation steps are reversed to reset the flat plate 303, the two T-shaped blocks 302 and the two first magnetic buckles 304 to their original positions.

[0028] Working principle: When the endoscope body 1 needs to be used, the two rotating plates 203 are first rotated 180 degrees. At this time, the rotating two rotating plates 203 will drive the slider 205 and the two soft pads 207 to move together, and at the same time, the surface of one of the soft pads 207 will be separated from the surface of the endoscope body 1. When the surface of the other soft pad 207 contacts the surface of the endoscope body 1 and the rotating plate 203 is still rotating, the slider 205 will slide inside the slide groove 204. When the slider 205 slides inside the slide groove 204 until it can no longer slide, the two rotating plates 203 have completed a 180-degree rotation, and the surface of the other soft pad 207 is just completely in contact with the surface of the endoscope body 1. At this time, under the action of the two rubber damping rings 208, the two rotating plates 203 can be prevented from automatically rotating when there is no medical staff operating. Then the medical staff can use the oral endoscope body 1 to The patient's oral cavity is examined. When the oral endoscope body 1 is finished using, the oral endoscope body 1 is first disinfected, and then the above-mentioned operating steps are reversed to reset the above-mentioned components to their original positions. When the endoscope body 1 needs to be charged, the flat plate 303 is first moved to one side of the endoscope body 1. At this time, the moving flat plate 303 will drive the two T-shaped blocks 302 to move inside the two T-shaped grooves 301 respectively, and the two moving T-shaped blocks 302 will drive the first magnetic buckles 304 connected thereto to move. At this time, the two moving first magnetic buckles 304 will be separated from the corresponding second magnetic buckles 305, and then the endoscope body 1 can be charged. When the endoscope body 1 is charged, the above-mentioned operating steps are reversed to reset the flat plate 303, the two T-shaped blocks 302 and the two first magnetic buckles 304 to their original positions.

[0029] Each first magnetic buckle 304 is magnetically connected to the second magnetic buckle 305 in contact therewith in a different polarity.

[0030] The endoscope body 1 generally includes the following main components:

[0031] Lens: used to capture intraoral images.

[0032] Handle: Easy to hold and operate.

[0033] Lighting system: Provides lighting for clear observation.

[0034] Wireless module: used to transmit image signals to the display device.

[0035] Control buttons or adjustment devices: such as focus adjustment, etc.

[0036] Imaging sensor: Converts light signals into electrical signals.

[0037] The working principle of oral endoscope is as follows:

[0038] The lighting system illuminates the inside of the oral cavity, the lens captures the image information inside the oral cavity, and the imaging sensor converts the light signal into an electrical signal. These electrical signals are transmitted wirelessly to the display device. After processing and conversion, they are finally presented on the display device as clear, real-time images of the inside of the oral cavity. This allows the dentist to intuitively observe the details of various parts of the oral cavity, such as the status of the teeth, gums, mucosa, etc., to assist in diagnosis and treatment decisions.

[0039] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the present invention in other forms. Any technician familiar with the profession may use the technical content disclosed above to change or modify it into an equivalent embodiment with equivalent changes and apply it to other fields. However, any simple modification, equivalent change and modification made to the above embodiment based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the content of the technical solution of the present invention still falls within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
