The tongue hook body 1 is made of stainless steel and has been polished to a mirror finish. The corner support 7 is fixedly installed on the tongue-pulling end of the tongue hook body 1.
[0027] Specifically, the tongue retractor body 1 has been polished to a mirror finish to aid in reflection and make it easier for doctors to see the local condition of the patient's oral cavity;
[0028] In this embodiment, the top of the corner support 7 is made of corner wrapping, the protective cover 8 is adapted to the corner support 7, and the specific material of the protective cover 8 is food-grade soft silicone.
[0029] Specifically, the corner support 7 can help to open up the corners of the patient's mouth;
[0030] In this embodiment, several sets of anti-slip blocks 9 are integrally designed on both sides of the top of the corner of the mouth support 7, and the protective cover 8 is fitted on the top of the corner of the mouth support 7.
[0031] Specifically, the anti-slip block 9 can improve the anti-slip properties of the top of the corner support 7, and the protective cover 8 is less likely to slip off the corner support 7;
[0032] In this embodiment, one end of the fixing tube 601 is fixed and connected to one end of the tongue hook body 1, and the positioning member 602 is "C" shaped and the positioning member 602 is fixedly installed on both sides of the fixing tube 601.
[0033] Specifically, the fixing tube 601 facilitates the installation of the positioning component 602;
[0034] In this embodiment, one end of the suction hose 5 is snapped into the connecting tube 603 and fixed by a disposable sealing tape, and the rotating tube 604 is rotatably installed on the connecting tube 603 and one end of the connecting tube 603 is snapped into the fixing tube 601.
[0035] Specifically, the connecting pipe 603 facilitates the installation of the pipe 604 and the suction hose 5;
[0036] In this embodiment, fixing blocks 605 are fixedly installed on both sides of the rotating tube 604, and magnet blocks 606 are embedded in the top of the two sets of fixing blocks 605. One end of the two sets of positioning members 602 is placed on the two sets of fixing blocks 605 respectively, and the positioning members 602 are made of magnetic metal.
[0037] Specifically, the fixing block 605 facilitates the connection and fixation between the positioning component 602 and the rotating tube 604.
[0038] The working principle and usage procedure of this utility model are as follows: The operator first checks whether the relevant components are installed in the correct position. The length from the corner support 7 to the end of the tongue puller body 1 should be the length of the tongue (generally 5-6cm). The overall length of the tongue puller is about 15cm, and the width of the tongue puller body 1 is 15-20mm (the thickness of an adult tongue is 15-20mm, and the width of the tongue puller should match the thickness of the tongue; the root of the tongue is relatively thick, so the end of the tongue puller should be appropriately widened). The end of the tongue puller body 1 with the water absorption hole 4 is tilted and inserted into the patient's mouth, and the patient's tongue is gently pulled open by the tongue puller body 1. The tongue puller body 1 is polished with a mirror finish to assist in reflection and make it easier for the doctor to see the local area of the patient's mouth. In this situation, the corner support 7 corresponds to the position of the patient's healthy corner of the mouth, which can pull the corner of the patient's mouth open. The protective sleeve 8 can prevent the corner support 7 from being too hard and causing discomfort to the patient's mouth. The anti-slip block 9 can improve the anti-slip performance of the top of the corner support 7. The protective sleeve 8 is not easy to slide off the corner support 7 on its own (the protective sleeve 8 can be set into several sets for easy manual replacement). When in use, the short wing 10 faces the tongue body surface and can assist in pulling. This structure allows the tongue hook to have the function of pulling and protecting the corner of the mouth at the same time. The tongue pulling end is equipped with the short wing 10, and the angle between the short wing 10 and the tongue pulling end is about 135°, which makes the pulling comfortable. The edges of the short wing 10 are polished and rounded. The short wing 10 can assist in pulling, and the tongue body is not easy to slip off, resulting in a better pulling and fixation effect.
[0039] During the use of the tongue retractor, place the suction device 2 in a suitable position on the table (ensure the suction hose 5 is long enough when selecting it), and start the suction device 2 via the relevant control switch. The suction hose 5 will generate suction, which, after passing through the connecting tube 603 and the fixing tube 601, will generate suction inside the tongue retractor body 1. Several sets of suction holes 4 can draw the saliva secreted by the patient's mouth into the tongue retractor body 1, and finally deliver it to the suction device 2 through the suction hose 5, thereby ensuring that the patient's wound is clean. Later, rotate the rotating tube 604 to make the fixing block 605 and the positioning piece 602 stagger, move the connecting tube 603 outward to separate it from the fixing tube 601, and remove the disposable sealing tape on the connecting tube 603 and the suction hose 5 to allow the suction hose 5 to... Disconnecting the connecting tube 603 (the sealing tape is usually wrapped around the outside and can be easily removed) allows for convenient cleaning and disinfection of the tongue retractor body 1, connecting component 6, and suction tube 5. Reversing the above operations completes the connection between the tongue retractor body 1 and the suction tube 5, which is quite convenient. When the positioning component 602 is placed on the fixing block 605, the magnetic attraction between the magnet block 606 and the magnetic metal positioning component 602 prevents the fixing block 605 from detaching from the positioning component 602, and the rotating tube 604 from rotating arbitrarily. This ensures the stability of the fixing between the rotating tube 604 and the fixing tube 601. This structure allows the tongue retractor to have a suction structure, ensuring the cleanliness of the patient's wound during examinations and surgical procedures, and facilitating oral examinations and surgical procedures for doctors.
[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
