Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of the preparation of nickel-titanium alloy wires for orthodontics, in particular to an automatic storage device for nickel-titanium alloy wires for orthodontics after cleaning. Background Technique

[0002] Nickel-titanium alloy wires have the characteristics of good superelasticity, small stiffness coefficient, corrosion resistance, etc., and are often used in orthodontic force application devices in oral cavity. Compared with stainless steel wires, the orthodontic force applied by them is gentle, lasting, has a high recovery force, and small residual deformation. It has obvious curative effects on treating open bite teeth, crowding, and crossbite, and will not cause adverse effects on the tissues around the teeth. Patients have no pain and are deeply welcomed by doctors and patients. During the preparation and processing of nickel-titanium alloy wires for orthodontics, especially before finished product packaging, it is necessary to clean them multiple times to fully remove pollutants such as residual grease, dirt, and dust on the surface of the wires. The arch of nickel-titanium alloy wires for orthodontics includes common U-shaped shapes such as oval, square-round, and natural shapes. In order to ensure the cleaning effect, the U-shaped arch nickel-titanium alloy wires are usually fully spread out so that they are in a random loose state in the cleaning liquid, rather than in an overlapping state up and down. After cleaning, the randomly loose nickel-titanium alloy wires need to be re-collected and sorted into an overlapping state up and down for convenient subsequent packaging. At present, most of the production is manual sorting of loose U-shaped nickel-titanium alloy wires. Due to the large number of model specifications of nickel-titanium alloy wires, various arch wire forms, and different arch forms of upper teeth and lower teeth under the same arch form, it is inefficient to manually store and sort each specification, which is not suitable for large-scale production. Based on this, in order to improve the efficiency of storing and sorting nickel-titanium alloy wires for orthodontics after cleaning, it is necessary to design an automatic storage device for nickel-titanium alloy wires for orthodontics after cleaning.

[0003] An isolation storage device for orthodontic ligature wires in the stomatology department provided according to the application number CN202022929222.5 includes a box body and a ligature wire coil. The inner wall of the bottom end of the box body is fixedly connected with a first spring, the top end of the first spring is fixedly connected with a bearing plate, and coaxial shafts are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the bearing plate and the inner wall of the top end of the box body. U-shaped sleeves are fixedly connected to the upper and lower ends of the ligature wire coil. Through the setting of the box body and the cover plate, the ligature wire coil can be protected to avoid the ligature wires on the ligature wire coil from directly contacting the outside air, reducing the influence of external unhygienic factors on the ligature wires. Through the setting of the measuring scale, when it is necessary to intercept the ligature wires, rotate the measuring scale with the pin shaft as the vertex so that the measuring scale is parallel to the plate body, so that simple measurement can be carried out when intercepting the ligature wires, reducing errors.

[0004] Through the sealed structural design and the added cutting element in the above document, a certain length of orthodontic ligature wires can be cut according to needs and the internal orthodontic ligature wires can be avoided from being contaminated, but the problem of difficult large-scale storage cannot be solved.

The first active arm 1412 and the first driven arm 1413 installed on the top of the first base 1411 are driven by an electric pusher and guided by the first visual monitor 152 to adjust the first telescopic cylinder 1414 and the flexible clamping claw 143 at its bottom to directly above the nickel-titanium alloy wire to be grasped. Under the control of the pneumatic control box 16, the first telescopic cylinder 1414 is inflated and extended, driving the entire flexible clamping claw 143 to approach the nickel-titanium alloy wire to be grasped through the connecting flange 1431. The pneumatic cores 1433 on the two mounting buckles 1432 are ventilated, pressing the clamping piece 1434 at one end to incline inwards until the nickel-titanium alloy wire to be grasped is clamped. Under the control of the pneumatic control box 16, the first telescopic cylinder 1414 deflates and contracts, lifting the nickel-titanium alloy wire into the air. The first active arm 1412 and the first driven arm 1413 installed on the top of the first base 1411 are driven by an electric pusher and guided by the first visual monitor 152 to adjust the first telescopic cylinder 1414 and the flexible clamping claw 143 at its bottom to above one end of the grasping conveyor belt 11. Under the control of the pneumatic control box 16, the pneumatic cores 1433 on the two mounting buckles 1432 deflate, releasing the clamping piece 1434 at one end, and the nickel-titanium alloy wire falls onto the grasping conveyor belt 11. The second driving motor 111 drives the grasping conveyor belt 11 to convey materials towards the receiving box 114 through the second connector 112. When the nickel-titanium alloy wire appears in the recognition area of the second visual monitor 154 installed on the top of the second bracket 153, if the recognized shape of the nickel-titanium alloy wire meets the regulations, an electrical signal is sent to drive the second grasping robot 142 to start.

Under the control of the pneumatic control box 16, the second telescopic cylinder 1424 is inflated and extended, driving the entire flexible clamping claw 143 to approach the nickel-titanium alloy wire to be grasped through the connecting flange 1431. The pneumatic cores 1433 on the two mounting buckles 1432 are ventilated, pressing the clamping piece 1434 at one end to incline inwards until the nickel-titanium alloy wire to be grasped is clamped. Under the control of the pneumatic control box 16, the second telescopic cylinder 1424 deflates and contracts, lifting the nickel-titanium alloy wire into the air. The second active arm 1422 installed on the top of the second base 1421 cooperates with the second driven arm 1423 to be driven by an electric pusher and guided by the second visual monitor 154 to adjust the second telescopic cylinder 1424 and the flexible clamping claw 143 at its bottom to directly above the receivable receiving box 114.
