Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of interdental cleaning equipment, and in particular to an interdental cleaning device for orthodontic treatment. Background Technology

[0002] Cleaning between teeth is a crucial part of orthodontic treatment. However, traditional methods often have several shortcomings, such as poor cleaning effectiveness, complex procedures, and a tendency to leak food particles. These problems not only affect the outcome of orthodontic treatment but may also pose potential threats to the patient's oral health. Traditional tools like dental floss and toothpicks often fail to thoroughly remove food debris and plaque from between teeth, especially during orthodontic treatment when misaligned teeth and braces make cleaning even more difficult. This can easily lead to bad breath and dental diseases, and may also affect the progress and effectiveness of orthodontic treatment.

[0003] Secondly, while some advanced interdental cleaning devices offer good cleaning results, their operation is often complex, requiring users to possess certain skills and patience. This can be challenging for some users, especially the elderly and children, making it difficult for them to consistently use these devices and thus affecting the cleaning effect. Furthermore, some interdental cleaning devices are prone to leakage during the delivery of the cleaning solution due to poor sealing. This not only wastes the cleaning solution but may also pollute the user's oral cavity and surrounding environment, and even pose safety hazards. Therefore, we provide an interdental cleaning device for orthodontic use. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention proposes a tooth gap cleaning device for orthodontic treatment, which more accurately solves the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] The utility model proposes a tooth gap cleaning device for orthodontic treatment, including a spray gun and a flushing pipe and a mounting head respectively installed at both ends of the spray gun. A connector is inserted into the inner wall of the mounting head, and a water guiding hose is connected through the end of the connector. A limit mechanism is connected between the mounting head and the connector.

[0007] The limiting mechanism includes a fixed ring plate fixedly installed around the periphery of the connector and a rectangular groove formed around the periphery of the mounting head. The inner wall of the rectangular groove has a strip-shaped placement groove. A movable sleeve block is slidably connected to the inner wall of the strip-shaped placement groove. An overlapping plate is fixedly connected between two movable sleeve blocks and is slidably connected to the inner wall of the rectangular groove. A plug rod is fixedly connected to the surface of the overlapping plate. A connecting plate is fixedly connected to the end of the plug rod. A limiting overlapping plate is fixedly installed at the end of the connecting plate. A reset component is connected between the strip-shaped placement groove and the movable sleeve block. A sealing structure is connected between the mounting head and the fixed ring plate.

[0008] Furthermore, the reset assembly includes a fixed rod fixedly connected between the two end walls of the strip-shaped placement groove, a spring sleeved around the fixed rod, and the movable sleeve block slidably sleeved around the fixed rod.

[0009] Furthermore, the sealing structure includes a sealing slot formed on the end surface of the mounting head, and a sealing insert is fixedly connected to the fixing ring plate relative to the end surface of the mounting head.

[0010] Furthermore, the surface of the limiting plate relative to the end of the mounting head is designed to contact and slide with the surface of the fixing ring to limit the movement of the fixing ring.

[0011] Furthermore, one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the end wall of the strip-shaped mounting groove, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to one end surface of the movable sleeve block.

[0012] Furthermore, the sealing ring is inserted into the inner wall of the sealing slot, and the opening size of the sealing slot is compatible with the design size of the sealing ring.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] This invention, through its designed limiting mechanism and reset assembly, achieves stable installation of the connector within the mounting head. The limiting plate closely fits the surface of the fixing ring and slides as the fixing ring moves, effectively limiting the range of movement of the connector and ensuring that it will not loosen or fall off during operation. Simultaneously, the spring design in the reset assembly allows the moving sleeve and the lap plate to quickly reset after the manual thrust is released, thus enabling convenient disassembly of the connector. This design not only improves the stability and reliability of the device but also facilitates user operation and maintenance.

[0015] This invention achieves a good seal between the connector and the mounting head through its designed sealing structure. The sealing ring is tightly inserted into the inner wall of the sealing slot, and the opening size of the sealing slot is compatible with the design size of the sealing ring, ensuring that the cleaning fluid will not leak during transportation. This design not only improves the cleaning effect but also avoids pollution of the surrounding environment and potential threats to user health caused by the cleaning fluid. At the same time, the good sealing performance also extends the service life of the device and reduces maintenance and replacement costs caused by leakage. Attached Figure Description

[0021] To more clearly and completely illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, will further explain this utility model.

[0022] Example

[0023] like Figures 1-4As shown in the figure, an embodiment of this utility model discloses a tooth cleaning device for orthodontic treatment. The device mainly consists of a spray gun 1, a rinsing pipe 2, a mounting head 3, a connector 4, and a water-guiding hose 5. The spray gun 1 serves as the main body, with the rinsing pipe 2 and the mounting head 3 connected at both ends. The inner wall of the mounting head 3 is designed with a slot for inserting the connector 4. The end of the connector 4 is connected to the water-guiding hose 5 for delivering cleaning fluid. A limiting mechanism is designed between the mounting head 3 and the connector 4 to ensure that the connector 4 is securely installed within the mounting head 3. The limiting mechanism includes a fixing ring 6 fixedly installed around the connector 4 and a rectangular groove 7 formed around the mounting head 3. The inner sidewall of the rectangular groove 7 is further provided with a strip-shaped placement groove 8, within which two movable sleeves 11 are slidably connected. The two movable sleeves 11 are connected by an overlapping plate 12, which also slides within the rectangular groove 7. A connector rod 13 is fixed to the surface of the lap plate 12. The end of the connector rod 13 is connected to the connecting plate 14, and the end of the connecting plate 14 is fixedly installed with a limiting lap plate 15. In addition, a reset assembly is connected between the strip-shaped placement groove 8 and the movable sleeve block 11.

[0024] To ensure a tight seal between the connector 4 and the mounting head 3, a sealing structure is designed. The sealing structure includes a sealing slot 16 formed on the end surface of the mounting head 3, and a sealing insert 17 fixedly connected to the fixing ring 6 relative to the end surface of the mounting head 3. This device, through the limiting mechanism and the sealing structure, ensures that the connector 4 is securely and tightly installed in the mounting head 3, thereby achieving stable delivery of cleaning fluid and effective cleaning of the interdental spaces.

[0025] Furthermore, the reset assembly includes a fixed rod 9 fixedly connected between the two end walls of the strip-shaped mounting groove 8, and a spring 10 sleeved around the fixed rod 9. The movable sleeve 11 is slidably sleeved around the fixed rod 9, so that the movable sleeve 11 can slide on the fixed rod 9 and reset under the action of the spring 10.

[0026] When it is necessary to install or remove the connector 4, the movable sleeve 11 and the overlapping plate 12 can be manually pushed to move the insertion rod 13 and the limiting overlapping plate 15, thereby releasing the restriction on the fixing ring 6. When the manual pushing force is released, the spring 10 will push the movable sleeve 11 and the overlapping plate 12 to reset, so that the limiting overlapping plate 15 will restrict the movement of the fixing ring 6 again, thus achieving a stable installation of the connector 4.

[0027] Furthermore, the sealing structure includes a sealing slot 16 formed on the end surface of the mounting head 3, and a sealing ring 17 fixedly connected to the fixing ring 6 opposite to the end surface of the mounting head 3. The design dimensions of the sealing ring 17 are adapted to the opening dimensions of the sealing slot 16 to ensure that the sealing ring 17 can be tightly inserted into the sealing slot 16.

[0028] When the connector 4 is fully inserted into the mounting head 3, the sealing ring 17 will be tightly inserted into the sealing slot 16 to prevent cleaning fluid leakage and ensure cleaning effect.

[0029] Furthermore, the limiting plate 15 is designed to contact and slide against the surface of the retaining ring 6 at the end of the mounting head 3. When the connector 4 is fully inserted into the mounting head 3, the limiting plate 15 will fit tightly against the surface of the retaining ring 6 and slide as the retaining ring 6 moves. This design limits the range of movement of the retaining ring 6, thereby ensuring that the connector 4 is securely installed in the mounting head 3.

[0030] The tight fit and sliding design between the limiting plate 15 and the fixing ring 6 enables the connector 4 to be stably installed and its movement restricted within the mounting head 3.

[0031] Furthermore, one end of the spring 10 is fixedly connected to the end wall of the strip-shaped mounting groove 8, and the other end is fixedly connected to one end surface of the movable sleeve 11. This connection method ensures that the spring 10 can always apply a pushing force to the movable sleeve 11, keeping it in the reset state.

[0032] When the movable sleeve 11 is manually pushed, the spring 10 is compressed; when the manual push is released, the spring 10 quickly returns to its original shape and pushes the movable sleeve 11 back to its original position. This connection method enables the reset component to work stably and realize the reset function of the movable sleeve 11.

[0033] Furthermore, the sealing ring 17 is inserted into the inner wall of the sealing slot 16, and the opening size of the sealing slot 16 is compatible with the design size of the sealing ring 17. This fit ensures that the sealing ring 17 can be tightly inserted into the sealing slot 16 and form a good sealing effect.

[0034] When the connector 4 is fully inserted into the mounting head 3, the sealing ring 17 will be tightly inserted into the sealing slot 16, forming a good seal, thereby preventing cleaning fluid leakage and ensuring cleaning effect. This mating method enables the sealing structure to work stably and achieve the function of sealing and delivering the cleaning fluid.
