Detailed Implementation

[0021] 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.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a dental instrument transport box, including a box body 1 and a box cover 5, which are connected by hinges. The box body 1 has a transport groove 2 inside, and several movable grooves 3 are symmetrically opened inside the transport groove 2. A lifting frame 4 is slidably connected between two movable grooves 3. The two side walls of the lifting frame 4 are symmetrically opened with storage grooves 7. Several elastic bands 9 are evenly fixed inside the storage grooves 7. Limiting blocks 10 are formed at the lower ends of both sides of the lifting frame 4. Positioning pins 12 are movably connected to the surface of the limiting blocks 10. The lifting frame 4 can be raised and lowered within the box body 1. After the lifting frame 4 is raised, the storage grooves 7 can be displayed for easy access to the instruments inside. An adjustment chamber 20 is provided at the lower end of the lifting frame 4. An adjustment mechanism is installed in the adjustment chamber 20. The adjustment mechanism can adjust the positioning pins 12. After the positioning pins 12 extend out, they are embedded in the positioning grooves 14 to fix the lifting frame 4.

[0023] In a further improvement, the adjustment mechanism includes an adjustment rod, a gear 18, and an adjustment plate 16. The lower end of the adjustment rod is rotatably connected to the inner bottom of the adjustment chamber 20, and the upper end of the adjustment rod extends above the lifting frame 4 and is connected to an adjustment handle 8. The gear 18 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the adjustment rod. There are two adjustment plates 16, which are symmetrically distributed. The opposing surfaces of the adjustment plates 16 are provided with teeth 17, which mesh with the gear 18. The ends of the adjustment plates 16 are respectively connected to positioning pins 12. By rotating the adjustment handle 8, the adjustment rod is driven to rotate. After the adjustment rod rotates, it drives the gear 18 to rotate. The gear 18 simultaneously pushes the two adjustment plates 16, and the adjustment plates 16 drive the positioning pins 12. The positioning pins 12 are inserted into / removed from the positioning grooves 14.

[0024] In a further improvement, the regulating chamber 20 is symmetrically provided with partitions 15, and the partitions 15 and the inner wall of the regulating chamber 20 are separated to form through holes 19. The regulating plate 16 is movably connected to the through holes 19, and the through holes 19 have a limiting effect on the regulating plate 16.

[0025] Further improvements include a limiting groove 13 inside the movable groove 3, with positioning grooves 14 formed at the upper and lower ends of the surface of the limiting groove 13.

[0026] In a further improvement, lock bodies 6 are provided on the side walls of the box body 1 and the box cover 5 to fix the box cover 5.

[0027] As a further improvement, a buffer pad 11 is installed at the bottom of the lifting frame 4 to provide a cushioning effect.

[0028] Working principle: After unlocking the lock body 6, flip the box cover 5, turn the adjusting handle 8 and drive the gear 18 to rotate. After the gear 18 rotates, it drives the adjusting plate 16 and drives the positioning pin 12 to move out of the positioning groove 14. Then, pull the adjusting handle 8 up and drive the lifting frame 4 to move up. After the lifting frame 4 moves up, the limiting block 10 slides in the limiting groove 13. After the limiting block 10 moves to the upper end of the limiting groove 13, reverse the adjusting handle 8 and drive the positioning pin 12 to embed into the positioning groove 14 at the upper end of the limiting groove 13, thus fixing the lifting frame 4. After fixing, the instrument can be inserted into the elastic band 9 or taken out from the elastic band 9. After the operation is completed, the lifting frame 4 can be put back into the box body 1.

[0029] The components of this utility model are: 1. Box body; 2. Transfer groove; 3. Movable groove; 4. Lifting frame; 5. Box cover; 6. Lock body; 7. Storage groove; 8. Adjusting handle; 9. Elastic band; 10. Limiting block; 11. Buffer pad; 12. Positioning pin; 13. Limiting groove; 14. Positioning groove; 15. Partition; 16. Adjusting plate; 17. Tooth; 18. Gear; 19. Through hole; 20. Adjusting compartment. All components are general standard parts or parts known to those skilled in the art. Their structure and principles can be learned by those skilled in the art through technical manuals or conventional experimental methods. The problem solved by this utility model is that existing transfer boxes mostly use simple partition grooves or general placement racks. Traditional transport boxes have limited internal storage space, and the fixed compartments cannot expand the space. When instruments are stacked, they need to be searched layer by layer, which is inconvenient for retrieving internal instruments and leads to low retrieval efficiency. This utility model solves the problem by combining the above-mentioned components. The utility model sets up several lifting frames 4 inside the box body 1. There are four storage slots 7 on the side wall of the lifting frame 4. Instruments are fixed by elastic bands 9 in the storage slots 7. After fixing, the lifting frame 4 can be lowered to expand the instrument fixing position and can store multiple dental instruments at the same time. After the lifting frame 4 rises and falls, it can be positioned by adjusting the positioning pin 12 to facilitate the retrieval of instruments.

[0030] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this utility model is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of this utility model. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects. The scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and thus all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within this utility model. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0031] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
