DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0025] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.
[0026] Combine the following Figures 1 to 4 , describing a foot-operated valve structure of a dental comprehensive treatment machine according to an embodiment of the utility model.
[0027] A foot valve structure of a dental comprehensive treatment machine comprises a base plate 1, a foot pedal 2, a trigger push frame 3, a valve linear push rod 4 and a foot valve 5, wherein the foot valve 5 is arranged on the base plate 1, and the rear end of the foot pedal 2 can be rotatably mounted on the base plate 1;
[0028] The trigger push frame 3 is located between the foot valve 5 and the foot pedal 2, and the length of the foot pedal 2 is greater than the length of the trigger push frame 3;
[0029] The rear end of the trigger push frame 3 is rotatably connected to the lower side of the rear end of the foot pedal 2 , one end of the valve linear push rod 4 abuts against the front end of the trigger push frame 3 , and the rear end of the valve linear push rod 4 is connected to the foot valve 5 .
[0030] In this technical solution, when the foot pedal 2 swings, it drives the trigger push frame 3 to move, and then the trigger push frame 3 pushes the valve linear push rod 4 to move, so that the valve linear push rod 4 pushes the valve core of the valve to move, thereby operating the valve. The foot pedal part of the foot pedal 2, the rear side plate of the foot pedal 2, the trigger push frame 3 and the valve linear push rod 4 are equivalent to a lever respectively, and a multi-lever valve driving method is adopted to amplify the swing amplitude of the foot pedal 2. The operator's foot movement can more easily and accurately control the opening of the foot valve 5, so as to greatly improve the reliability of the dental comprehensive treatment machine during dental surgery and ensure the safety of the surgery. In addition, the foot valve structure of the dental comprehensive treatment machine of this technical solution has the characteristics of simple structure, quick assembly and reliable transmission.
[0031] Specifically, the foot valve 5 is an air valve, and the foot valve 5 is used to control the rotation speed of the dental handpiece. The opening of the foot valve 5 is precisely controlled through the large swing foot pedal 2, thereby precisely regulating the flow of the dental handpiece working gas. When the foot valve 5 is driven by the foot pedal 2, the trigger push frame 3 is driven to push the valve linear push rod 4 through the conversion of the movement direction of the foot pedal part of the foot pedal 2 and the rear side plate of the foot pedal 2, so that the large angle movement of the foot pedal 2 can precisely control the movement distance of the short stroke valve linear push rod 4.
[0032] In one embodiment of the utility model, the two sides of the rear end of the trigger push frame 3 are rotatably connected to the two sides of the foot pedal 2, and abutment surface 31 is provided in the center of the front end of the trigger push frame 3, and the end of the valve linear push rod 4 abuts against the abutment surface 31. Because the two sides of the rear end of the trigger push frame 3 are rotatably connected to the two sides of the foot pedal 2, the trigger push frame 3 has a large width, and the connection between the connection of the two sides of the rear end of the trigger push frame 3 and the abutment surface 31 is a triangle, which ensures the installation stability of the trigger push frame 3 and high transmission reliability.
[0033] Preferably, refer to Figure 4 , the end of the valve linear push rod 4 is provided with a contact arc surface 41, and the abutting surface 31 is an inclined plane with the bottom inclined toward the valve linear push rod 4; the contact arc surface 41 abuts against the abutting surface 31. The contact arc surface 41 and the abutting surface 31 are in a linear contact state, reducing the friction between the two, so that the valve linear push rod 4 is not easy to shake. Moreover, the abutting surface 31 is an inclined plane with the bottom inclined toward the valve linear push rod 4, which is conducive to triggering the push frame 3 to push the valve linear push rod 4 to make a linear motion in the horizontal direction, and also prevents the contact arc surface 41 from separating from the abutting surface 31.
[0034] In one embodiment of the utility model, the base plate 1 is fixed with a guide mounting plate 11, and the valve linear push rod 4 is slidably matched with the guide mounting plate 11 to guide the movement of the valve linear push rod 4, thereby further ensuring the reliability of the transmission. Specifically, a rotating shaft 21 is provided at the rear end of the foot pedal 2, and a supporting mounting column 12 is provided at the base plate 1. The top of the supporting mounting column 12 has an arc groove 13, and the two ends of the rotating shaft 21 are respectively inserted into the arc grooves 13 of the two supporting mounting columns 12.
[0035] The two support mounting columns 12 allow a certain distance between the rear end of the foot pedal 2 and the bottom plate 1, providing space for the installation of the trigger push frame 3, the valve linear push rod 4 and the foot valve 5. It should be noted that there is a distance between the rotating shaft 21 and the rear end of the trigger push frame 3, and the rear side plate of the foot pedal 2 is connected to the trigger push frame 3, so that the foot part of the foot pedal 2 and the rear side plate of the foot pedal 2 form a lever respectively. Exemplarily, the bottom plate 1, the guide mounting plate 11 and the support mounting column 12 are an integrated structure using a plastic injection molding method.
[0036] In one embodiment of the present invention, a reset member 6 is provided between the foot pedal 2 and the bottom plate 1, and the reset member 6 is located on one side of the front end of the trigger push frame 3. The reset member 6 is used to restore the foot pedal 2 to its original position after being pressed down. Exemplarily, the reset member 6 is a spring, and two springs are provided on both sides of the trigger push frame 3, one end of the spring is positioned on the bottom plate 1, and the other end is positioned on the bottom surface of the foot pedal 2.
[0037] In order to facilitate the operation of the foot pedal 2, in a preferred embodiment, the free end of the foot pedal 2 extends outside the base plate 1, and a limit pad 22 is provided at the bottom of the free end of the foot pedal 2. Extending the free end of the foot pedal 2 outside the base plate 1 can not only increase the length of the foot pedal 2, but also reduce the volume of the foot switch device, and at the same time make it easier for the operator to step on the foot pedal 2. The limit pad 22 is used to limit the maximum amplitude of the downward swing of the foot pedal 2. Preferably, the limit pad 22 is a rubber pad with a buffering effect.
[0038] Specifically, the foot valve 5 door structure also includes a shell 7, which is covered on the bottom plate 1, and the shaft 21 and the support mounting column 12 are located in the shell 7 to achieve a dustproof effect. More specifically, a U-shaped handle bar 8 is provided at the rear end of the bottom plate 1 to facilitate the movement of the foot valve 5 door structure.
[0039] In one embodiment of the utility model, the bottom plate 1 is provided with a seat posture foot control ball cap 01, a water control button 02, a seat reset button 03 and a chip blowing air button 04. The seat posture foot control ball cap 01 is located behind the foot pedal 2, and the water control button 02, the seat reset button 03 and the chip blowing air button 04 are respectively arranged on both sides of the foot pedal 2. The seat posture foot control ball cap 01 is used to adjust the seat posture; there are two water control buttons 02, which respectively control the water supply of the dental handpiece and the mouthwash water supply; the chip blowing air button 04 is used to supply air to the chip blowing air gun.
