Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically to a dental low-speed handpiece. Background Technology
[0002] Dental handpieces are important medical instruments in clinical dentistry, used to perform operations such as drilling, grinding, and polishing on patients' teeth. Depending on the rotation speed, dental handpieces can be divided into high-speed dental handpieces and low-speed dental handpieces. High-speed dental handpieces have a rotation speed of 300,000 to 500,000 rpm, while low-speed dental handpieces have a rotation speed of several thousand to 30,000 rpm.
[0003] The actuators used in dental low-speed handpieces are usually pneumatic motors or electric motors. Since the actuators are located inside the handpiece handle, the heat generated during operation cannot be dissipated in time, which can easily cause the handpiece handle temperature to rise, affecting the operator's grip on the handpiece as well as the performance and lifespan of the actuators. Therefore, it is necessary to make technical improvements to them. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a low-speed dental handpiece to solve the problem in the prior art where the handpiece handle temperature rises, affecting the operator's grip on the handpiece and the performance and lifespan of the actuator.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a dental low-speed handpiece, including a handle, one end of which is connected to a head, a bur rotating inside the head, a driver for driving the bur to rotate inside the handle, and an end cap connected to the other end of the handle. A spacer is provided between the driver and the inner wall of the handle, a spiral channel is provided in the side wall of the spacer, and a water inlet channel and a water outlet channel are provided in the side wall of the handle. The inlet end of the water inlet channel is connected to the inlet end of the spiral channel, and the outlet end of the water outlet channel is connected to the outlet end of the spiral channel. The end cap has a through hole communicating with the water inlet channel and the water outlet channel.
[0006] As a preferred embodiment of this technical solution, a raised strip is provided on the side of the end cap facing the handle, an external thread is provided on the outer side of the raised strip, and a corresponding internal thread is provided on the inner side wall of the handle. The end cap is threadedly connected to the handle through the raised strip, and the raised strip abuts against the end of the spacer.
[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this technical solution, the end cap is provided with a sealing ring at the connection between the through hole and the water inlet channel and the water outlet channel.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this technical solution, a sealing ring II is provided at the connection between the inlet end of the water inlet channel and the spiral channel, and at the connection between the outlet end of the water outlet channel and the spiral channel.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this technical solution, the through hole of the end cap is configured as an internally threaded hole.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this technical solution, the handle and the head are threaded together.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model sets a spacer between the driver and the handle, and a spiral channel is set in the side wall of the spacer. A water inlet channel and a water outlet channel are set in the side wall of the handle. The inlet end of the water inlet channel and the spiral channel are connected, and the outlet end of the water outlet channel and the spiral channel are connected. The end cap is provided with a through hole that communicates with the water inlet channel and the water outlet channel. Cooling water can be introduced into the spiral channel from the outside to cool the driver and carry away the heat dissipated by the driver in a timely manner, so as to avoid the heat generated by the driver being transferred to the handle, which would affect the handholding of the mobile phone and the performance and service life of the driver.

[0015] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0016] Please see Figure 1-2 This utility model discloses a low-speed dental handpiece, comprising a handle 1, one end of which is connected to a head 2, a bur 3 rotating inside the head 2, a driver 4 for driving the bur 3 to rotate inside the handle 1, an end cap 9 connected to the other end of the handle 1, a spacer 5 between the driver 4 and the inner wall of the handle 1, a spiral channel 6 inside the side wall of the spacer 5, a water inlet channel 7 and a water outlet channel 8 inside the side wall of the handle 1, the inlet end of the water inlet channel 7 and the spiral channel 6 being connected, and the outlet end of the water outlet channel 8 and the spiral channel 6 being connected, and a through hole 9.1 on the end cap 9 communicating with the water inlet channel 7 and the water outlet channel 8.
[0017] In a specific implementation of this utility model, the handle 1 is a hollow cylinder, and the handle 1 and the head 2 are threaded together for easy disassembly. The spacer 5 is a hollow cylinder with open ends. The end cap 9 has a raised strip 9.2 on the side facing the handle 1. The raised strip 9.2 is an annular raised strip with external threads on its outer side and corresponding internal threads on the inner wall of the handle 1. The end cap 9 is threaded to the inner wall of the handle 1 through the raised strip 9.2. That is, after the end cap 9 is screwed tight, the raised strip 9.2 presses against the end of the spacer 5, and the end cap 9 covers the end of the handle 1. The end cap 9 has a sealing ring 10 at the connection between the through hole 9.1 and the water inlet channel 7 and the water outlet channel 8. That is, the sealing ring 10 is provided at the end of the handle 1 near the through hole 9.1 to prevent water leakage in the channel. Sealing ring 2 11 is provided at the inlet end connection of water inlet channel 7 and spiral channel 6, and at the outlet end connection of water outlet channel 8 and spiral channel 6.
