[0002] At present, the equipment for cleaning dental handpieces on the market mainly includes a decompression boiling cleaning and disinfection machine or a medical cleaning and disinfection machine. However, these two cleaning devices mainly have problems of unsatisfactory drying effect and small cleaning capacity. The decompression boiling cleaning and disinfection machine has a large cleaning capacity, but has the problem of unsatisfactory drying effect. The spray cleaning and disinfection machine requires a special cleaning rack during the cleaning process. Before cleaning, the dental handpiece needs to be docked with the cleaning rack, and the docking position is fixed by a silicone sleeve. There are problems such as small cleaning capacity, cleaning dead angles at the fixed position of the silicone fixing sleeve, and complicated docking process. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a cleaning basket for dental handpieces with reasonable design, large cleaning capacity, no cleaning dead angles and suitable for a decompression boiling cleaning and disinfection machine in view of the deficiencies of the prior art.

Each compartment is provided with a mutually attached upper plate and a lower plate. The upper plate is a flexible plate for protecting the dental handpiece, and the lower plate is a hard plate for supporting the dental handpiece. The upper plate and the lower plate are fixed on the inner wall of the basket body. A number of positioning holes for inserting the dental handpiece are correspondingly opened on the upper plate and the lower plate, and the aperture of the positioning holes on the upper plate is smaller than the aperture of the positioning holes on the lower plate.

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model can also be realized by the following technical solution. The top of the basket body is provided with an opening, and a mesh plate cover is installed at the opening through a lock. A number of mesh holes are provided at the bottom of the basket body.

[0007] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model can also be realized by the following technical solution. The upper plate is a silicone plate or a polytetrafluoroethylene plate, and the lower plate is a stainless steel plate.

[0019] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0020] In the description of the utility model, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationships indicated by the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc. are based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and thus should not be construed as a limitation to the utility model.

[0021] Reference Figures 1-3 , a dental handpiece cleaning basket, including a basket body 1 and several layers provided at the same or different heights. Each layer is provided with a mutually adhered upper plate 6 and a lower plate 7. The upper plate 6 is a flexible plate for protecting the dental handpiece 4, and the lower plate 7 is a hard plate for supporting the dental handpiece. The upper plate 6 and the lower plate 7 are installed on the inner wall of the basket body 1 through fixing screws, and the height of the layer is adjusted by adjusting the position of the fixing screws. A number of positioning holes 5 for inserting the dental handpiece are correspondingly opened on the upper plate 6 and the lower plate 7. The aperture of the positioning hole 5 on the upper plate 6 is smaller than the aperture of the positioning hole 5 on the lower plate 7;

[0022] A gap for ensuring the flow of water and dry hot air is provided between the hole wall of the positioning hole 5 and the dental handpiece 4. The positioning hole can also be a hole with other shapes that can both position the dental handpiece and ensure the drainage of liquid, such as a triangular hole, a pentagonal hole, a special-shaped hole, or a circular hole with a notch, etc. If a circular hole is used, a corresponding drainage and ventilation notch can also be provided on the layer where the positioning hole is located.

[0023] The top of the basket body 1 is open, and a net plate cover 3 is installed at the opening through a lock 2. A number of net holes are provided at the bottom of the basket body 1.

[0024] The upper plate 6 is a silica gel plate or a polytetrafluoroethylene plate, and the lower plate 7 is a stainless steel plate.

[0025] At least two layers, an upper layer and a lower layer, are provided for the layer. The upper layer is provided at the middle position of the dental handpiece 4, and the lower layer is provided at the lower position of the dental handpiece 4.

[0026] The working principle of the present utility model is: Different height basket layers are set for dental handpieces of different heights, which can achieve quick and convenient picking and placing for dental handpieces of different heights, ensuring the convenience of loading and unloading. At the same time, a basket can be provided with layers of different heights or layers of the same height; The polytetrafluoroethylene plate is provided to protect the dental handpiece and the cleaning basket layer from mutual friction between metals, resulting in wear of the dental handpiece during the cleaning process. The material of the polytetrafluoroethylene plate can be replaced with medical high-temperature resistant materials such as silica gel. The opening of the upper plate (i.e., the flexible plate) is smaller than the opening of the lower plate (i.e., the hard plate) to ensure that there is no friction between the dental handpiece and the layer. The height of the layer can be adjusted through the fixing screws around the basket to adapt to dental handpieces of different heights. The openings on the layer are all positioning holes, and the purpose of using the positioning holes is to ensure the flow of water and dry hot air to ensure the cleaning and drying effects.

[0027] The dental handpiece remains standing upright or at an incline in the cleaning basket. The purpose of this is to ensure that the impact force of the water flow during the cleaning process is better in contact with the dental handpiece, guaranteeing the cleaning effect. Before drying, after the water in the cleaning chamber is drained, most of the water inside the dental handpiece also drains out due to gravity, ensuring the subsequent drying effect. The function of the basket cover and the lock is to ensure that the dental handpiece does not shift due to the water flow during the cleaning process.

[0028] The above are only the preferred specific embodiments of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present utility model, according to the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, making equivalent replacements or changes, should be covered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
