Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments described below are only some, not all, of the embodiments disclosed. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0033] The number of any elements in the accompanying drawings is for illustrative purposes only and not as a limitation, and any naming is for distinction only and has no limiting meaning.

[0034] The principles and spirit of this utility model will be explained in detail below with reference to several representative embodiments.

[0035] The dental chair provided by this utility model, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the treatment chair includes a backrest 11. The backrest 11 has a lumbar support device 12 in the lumbar region. The lumbar support device 12 includes a support frame 121, a support roller 122, and a lifting drive assembly 123. The support frame 121 has a guide groove 1211. The lifting drive assembly 123 is connected to the support roller 122 to drive the support roller 122 to move up and down along the guide groove 1211.

[0036] Through the above technical solution, the support frame 121 serves as the mounting base for the entire lumbar support device 12, and the guide groove 1211 provided on it provides a precise track for the vertical movement of the slider 1232. Through the transmission connection between the lifting drive assembly 123 and the support roller 122, the support roller 122 assembly can be driven to move vertically along the guide groove 1211, thereby achieving height adjustment of the support roller 122 to adapt to the lumbar position requirements of different patients.

[0037] In this embodiment, the lifting drive assembly 123 includes a lead screw 1231, a slider 1232, and a drive motor 1233. The drive motor 1233 is linked to the lead screw 1231. When the drive motor 1233 starts, it drives the lead screw 1231 to rotate. The slider 1232 is linked to the support roller 122. The slider 1232 is sleeved on the outer wall of the lead screw 1231 and is in transmission cooperation with the lead screw 1231. The slider 1232 is embedded in the guide groove 1211 and slides up and down along the guide groove 1211. Under the drive of the drive motor 1233 and the lead screw 1231, the slider 1232 can slide up and down along the guide groove 1211, thereby driving the support roller 122 to move up and down.

[0038] In this embodiment, the support roller 122 includes an mounting roller 1221 and an elastic roller 1222, with the elastic roller 1222 sleeved on the outer wall of the mounting roller 1221. In this embodiment, the mounting roller 1221 serves to support and fix the elastic roller 1222. The elastic roller 1222 is made of medical-grade silicone, which has advantages such as being non-toxic, odorless, biocompatible, soft, and elastic, providing comfortable support for the patient's lower back and reducing pressure on the lower back.

[0039] In this embodiment, the inner wall of the elastic roller 1222 is interference-fitted with the mounting roller 1221 to ensure that the elastic roller 1222 is firmly installed on the mounting roller 1221, and to prevent loosening or falling off during use.

[0040] To achieve real-time monitoring and automatic adjustment of the pressure exerted by the support roller 122 on the patient's lumbar region, this embodiment also includes a pressure detection component 13. The pressure detection component 13 includes a thin-film pressure sensor 131 and a signal processing module 132. The thin-film pressure sensor 131 is attached to the inner wall of the elastic roller 1222. When the patient's lumbar region applies pressure to the elastic roller 1222, the thin-film pressure sensor 131 can accurately detect the pressure signal. The thin-film pressure sensor 131 is electrically connected to the lifting drive component 123 via the signal processing module 132. The signal processing module 132 processes the signal output by the thin-film pressure sensor 131 and then transmits the processed signal to the control circuit of the drive motor 1233 of the lifting drive component 123. The control circuit of the drive motor 1233 automatically adjusts its working state according to the received signal, such as starting, stopping, or changing the direction of the drive motor 1233, thereby achieving automatic adjustment of the height of the support roller 122 and ensuring that the support roller 122 always maintains appropriate support pressure on the lumbar region.

[0041] In this embodiment, the pressure detection component 13 provides the dental chair with an intelligent pressure adjustment function. This intelligent adjustment mechanism ensures that the support roller 122 always maintains appropriate support pressure on the lumbar region, preventing both insufficient pressure that would lead to lumbar fatigue and excessive pressure that could cause discomfort or even injury. Simultaneously, the pressure detection component 13 can monitor changes in lumbar pressure in real time, issuing alarms or taking appropriate measures in case of abnormal pressure, thus providing strong protection for patient safety.

[0042] In this embodiment, the surface of the elastic roller 1222 is uniformly arrayed with massage protrusions 101, each protrusion being hemispherical. When the patient's lower back comes into contact with the elastic roller 1222, these massage protrusions 101 provide a gentle massage, promoting blood circulation in the lower back, relieving muscle tension, and further improving the patient's comfort while using the dental chair.

[0043] In this embodiment, a limiting boss 102 is provided at one end of the slider 1232 facing the mounting roller 1221, and a limiting groove 103 corresponding to the limiting boss 102 is provided on the mounting roller 1221. The limiting boss 102 is inserted into the limiting groove 103 to ensure the connection stability between the mounting roller 1221 and the slider 1232, prevent the mounting roller 1221 from shaking or deviating during movement, and ensure that the support roller 122 can move accurately according to the set trajectory.

[0044] In this embodiment, three sets of support rollers 122 are provided, arranged side by side with their horizontal central axes parallel to each other. The design of multiple sets of support rollers 122 increases the support area for the patient's lower back, making the force on the lower back more even and improving the support effect. Simultaneously, the three sets of support rollers 122 can be adjusted in height independently or collaboratively to better adapt to the lumbar curves of different patients.

[0045] In this embodiment, the backrest 11 includes an outer lining 111 and an inner support frame 112. The outer lining 111 is wrapped around the inner support frame 112 to shape the backrest 11. The lumbar support device 12 is located inside the outer lining 111. The support frame 121 is fixedly connected to the inner support frame 112 to ensure the stability of the lumbar support device 12.

[0046] In this embodiment, the outer lining 111 is provided with a plurality of ventilation holes 1111. The outer lining 111 is made of a breathable material, which can ensure air circulation between the patient's waist and the contact area of ​​the backrest 11, reduce stuffiness, and improve the patient's comfort during use. In addition, the breathable material of the outer lining 111 is easy to clean and disinfect, which helps to maintain the hygiene of the treatment chair, reduce the risk of cross-infection, and provide patients with a safer and healthier treatment environment.

[0047] The dental chair provided by this utility model, in actual use, involves the patient sitting in the dental chair and activating the lumbar support device 12. The drive motor 1233 drives the lead screw 1231 to rotate, and the lead screw 1231 drives the slider 1232 to move up and down along the guide groove 1211, thereby causing the three sets of support rollers 122 to move up and down simultaneously or separately, adjusting the support rollers 122 to a suitable position for the patient's waist. When the patient's waist applies pressure to the support rollers 122, the pressure detection component 13 detects the pressure signal and automatically adjusts the height of the support rollers 122 according to the signal, ensuring that the support rollers 122 always provide suitable support for the waist. Simultaneously, the massage protrusions 101 massage the waist, promoting blood circulation. Throughout the entire treatment process, the patient can maintain a comfortable lumbar posture, effectively improving the treatment experience and outcome.
