Detailed Implementation

[0020] 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.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a water pressure adjustable denture cleaning device, including a water storage tank 1, a water supply component and several cleaning tanks 9. The water storage tank 1 is used to store clean water, and the water supply component is used to replenish the clean water in the water storage tank 1. By transporting the clean water in the water storage tank 1 to the cleaning tanks 9 for cleaning dentures, it is convenient for denture processing and preparation. The water supply component includes a water pump 13. A water inlet pipe 14 is provided at the outlet of the water pump 13. The end of the water inlet pipe 14 away from the water pump 13 is fixed to the side of the water storage tank 1 and communicates with the inner cavity of the water storage tank 1. When the clean water in the water storage tank 1 is insufficient, the water pump 13 is controlled to work, and clean water is drawn from the outside by the water pump 13. The drawn clean water enters and is stored in the water storage tank 1 through the water inlet pipe 14.

[0022] A pressurizing component connected to the inner cavity of the water tank 1 is installed on the outside of the water tank 1. The pressurizing component is used to increase the pressure inside the water tank 1 and increase the force of the water jet, which is convenient for fine cleaning of dentures. The pressurizing component is also designed to reduce the working frequency of the water pump 13 and prevent the water pump 13 from overheating and being damaged due to prolonged operation. When in use, water is first pumped by the water pump 13. After the water tank 1 is full, the water pump 13 is turned off and the pressurizing component is controlled to pressurize. The internal air pressure does not change as long as the water in the water tank 1 is not discharged, which makes it convenient to use water as needed for cleaning.

[0023] The pressurization assembly includes a pressurization pump 2 installed on the side of the water storage tank 1, with the air inlet of the pressurization pump 2 connected to the inner cavity of the water storage tank 1. A pressure sensor 3 is installed on the side of the water storage tank 1, with the detection end of the pressure sensor 3 located inside the water storage tank 1. When the pressurization assembly is in use, it controls the pressurization pump 2 to work, injecting air into the water storage tank 1 to increase the internal pressure of the water storage tank 1. During the operation of this cleaning device, the pressure sensor 3 detects the air pressure inside the water storage tank 1. If the water pump 13 injects water into the water storage tank 1 to increase the internal pressure of the water storage tank 1, the pressurization pump 2 will no longer work. When the clean water in the water storage tank 1 is drained, causing some gas to be discharged, the pressurization pump 2 is used to replenish the internal pressure of the water storage tank 1, facilitating the use of the water storage tank 1.

[0024] A one-way valve 15 is installed on the water inlet pipe 14. The one-way valve 15 is used for the one-way flow of water in the water inlet pipe 14 to prevent some water from flowing back through the water inlet pipe 14 after the pressure in the water storage tank 1 increases.

[0025] A water outlet pipe 4 is installed at the bottom of the water storage tank 1, which is connected to its inner cavity. A guide pipe 6 is installed at the end of the water outlet pipe 4 away from the water storage tank 1. Several diversion pipes 7 connected to its inner cavity are installed on the side of the guide pipe 6. A nozzle 71 is installed inside the cleaning box 9. The end of the diversion pipe 7 away from the guide pipe 6 is fixed to the side of the cleaning box 9 and connected to the nozzle 71. It should be noted that one diversion pipe 7 is connected to one nozzle 71 on the cleaning box 9. After the water storage tank 1 is pressurized, the clean water in the water storage tank 1 enters the guide pipe 6 through the water outlet pipe 4, and under the diversion action of the diversion pipe 7, the clean water is sprayed out through the nozzle 71 for cleaning the dentures in the cleaning box 9.

[0026] A main valve 5 is installed on the outlet pipe 4. The main valve 5 is used to regulate the water flow rate in the outlet pipe 4. When the water flow rate in the outlet pipe 4 increases, the water flow rate in all the branch pipes 7 will increase synchronously. Conversely, if the water flow rate in the outlet pipe 4 decreases, the water flow rate in all the branch pipes 7 will decrease synchronously. The main valve 5 is used to regulate the overall water output of this cleaning device. A regulating valve 8 is installed on the branch pipe 7. The regulating valve 8 is used to regulate the water flow rate in a single branch pipe 7. The main valve 5 and the regulating valve 8 are used together to facilitate the regulation of water flow and water pressure in different branch pipes 7.

[0027] A filter 16 is installed on the water outlet pipe 4, and the water outlet pipe 4 is connected to the inner cavity of the filter 16. After the water flows into the water outlet pipe 4, it is filtered by the filter 16 to prevent foreign objects in the water from clogging the nozzle 71. At the same time, it ensures the cleanliness of the water sprayed from the nozzle 71 and improves the quality of denture cleaning.

[0028] The top of the cleaning box 9 is open, which makes it easy to put in and take out the dentures inside the cleaning box 9. The side of the cleaning box 9 is equipped with a sealing cover 12 to seal the opening. During the denture cleaning process, the sealing cover 12 seals the opening to prevent some water from splashing out of the cleaning box 9.

[0029] The cleaning box 9 is equipped with a positioning component, which includes a placement plate 17 installed inside the cleaning box 9, and a positioning post 18 is fixed on the side of the placement plate 17. The positioning post 18 is set to correspond to the nozzle 71. When cleaning dentures, the dentures are placed on the outside of the positioning post 18, and the positioning post 18 positions the dentures to prevent them from moving during the cleaning process.

[0030] A collection pipe 11 is provided below the cleaning box 9. A drain pipe 10 connected to the inner cavity of the cleaning box 9 is installed at the bottom of the cleaning box 9. Several drain pipes 10 installed at the bottom of the cleaning box 9 are connected to the inner cavity of the collection pipe 11. After the water sprays out to clean the denture, it enters the collection pipe 11 through the drain pipe 10. Then the water is collected and discharged in the collection pipe 11.

[0031] The pressurizing pump 2, pressure sensor 3, and water pump 13 used in this utility model are all commonly used electronic components in the prior art. Their working methods and circuit structures are all known technologies. The operation of the pressurizing pump 2, pressure sensor 3, and water pump 13 is controlled by setting an external switch group or PLC controller.
