Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of orthodontic technology, specifically to an integrated toolbox for filling and storing orthodontic appliance accessories. Background Technology

[0002] An orthodontic appliance is a device used to treat malocclusion. It generates force, or the functional force of the masticatory and perioral muscles, which, through the appliance, causes changes in the deformed jawbone, misaligned teeth, and periodontal supporting tissues, thus promoting normal growth and development of the dentofacial region.

[0003] Currently, light-cured resin is widely used in orthodontic treatment. It hardens upon exposure to light, so the orthodontist needs to apply it before the resin hardens. This requires the orthodontist to have a good grasp of the timing. When bonding all the attachments to the clear aligner for the first time, each attachment needs to be filled with resin individually. This chairside operation takes a long time, which is not only time-consuming, but also makes the resin prone to premature curing. Therefore, there is a need for an auxiliary tool that is convenient for chairside operation and can effectively prevent the resin attachments from curing prematurely. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an integrated toolbox for filling and storing orthodontic accessories, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an integrated toolbox for filling and storing orthodontic accessories, comprising a toolbox, a workbench provided on the left side of the toolbox, a placement slot provided on the right side of the toolbox, turntables rotatably connected to the front and rear sidewalls of the placement slot, a plurality of rotating plates arranged in a circular array installed between the two turntables, mounting slots provided on the surface of the rotating plates, an orthodontic accessory slot provided at the upper end of the mounting slot, a resin extrusion groove provided on the surface of the workbench, a resin bottle placed inside the resin extrusion groove, and a flexible tube installed at the end of the workbench near the rotating plate, the flexible tube being connected to the resin extrusion groove.

[0006] Preferably, a longitudinal partition plate is installed inside the placement slot, and a fixing block is installed between the partition plate and the workbench. The fixing block has a sealing groove facing the hose, and a sealing rubber block is installed inside the sealing groove.

[0007] Preferably, a limiting block is installed between the fixing block and the hose, and the two ends of the limiting block are respectively connected to the workbench and the partition plate, and the limiting block has a limiting groove facing one end of the hose.

[0008] Preferably, two slid grooves are symmetrically formed on the upper end of the worktable at the positions above and below the resin extrusion groove. The two slid grooves are connected to two moving plates by a slider. A force-bearing component is installed at the lower end of the two moving plates, and an extrusion block is installed at the lower end of the force-bearing component.

[0009] Preferably, the force-bearing component includes a connecting block, an extension plate, a force-bearing plate, a longitudinal plate, an opening slot, and a spring telescopic rod. The lower end of the moving plate is equipped with a longitudinal plate, and the two longitudinal plates have an opening slot at their opposite ends. A spring telescopic rod is installed inside the opening slot, and an extension plate is installed at the upper end of the spring telescopic rod. A connecting block is installed between the two extension plates, and a force-bearing plate is installed at the upper end of the connecting block. The lower end of the connecting block is connected to the upper end of the pressing plate.

[0010] Preferably, a light-shielding cover is rotatably connected to the side of the mounting groove.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] 1. This utility model relates to an integrated toolbox for filling and storing orthodontic attachments. By inverting a resin bottle into a resin extrusion groove, the resin inside the bottle slowly moves into a flexible tube under gravity. Manually squeezing a force-bearing component moves an extrusion plate towards the resin bottle, forcing the resin out of the tube. After the resin is applied to the surface of the orthodontic attachment, it is placed in the attachment slot. The light-proof cover is then closed. By placing multiple resin-coated orthodontic attachments in the slot, the attending physician only needs to open the light-proof cover to retrieve the pre-filled attachments, eliminating the need for on-site resin application. This saves chairside time, improves attachment filling quality, reduces material waste, and facilitates physician use.

[0013] 2. The orthodontic accessory filling and storage integrated tool box of this utility model has a fixing block with a sealing groove inside. A sealing rubber block is installed inside the sealing groove. The size of the sealing rubber block is adapted to the inner diameter of the tubing. When not in use, the opening of the tubing can be placed inside the sealing groove and sealed by the sealing rubber block.

[0014] 3. The integrated toolbox for filling and storing orthodontic accessories of this utility model has two movable plates. A force-bearing component is installed at the lower end of the two movable plates, and a squeezing block is installed at the lower end of the force-bearing component. The size of the squeezing block is adapted to the size of the resin squeezing groove. Since the force is not uniform when the resin bottle is squeezed directly by man, the force-bearing component drives the squeezing block to squeeze the resin bottle by man. This can squeeze the resin bottle evenly, and not only is the squeezing area larger, but the squeezing is also more uniform. Attached Figure Description

They are used only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0021] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this embodiment of the integrated toolbox for filling and storing orthodontic accessories includes a toolbox 1. A lid is rotatably connected to the upper end of the toolbox 1. A workbench 3 is located on the left side of the interior of the toolbox 1, and a placement slot 2 is located on the right side. The horizontal height of the workbench 3 is significantly higher than the bottom height of the placement slot 2. Turntables 10 are rotatably connected to the front and rear sidewalls of the placement slot 2. Multiple rotating plates 11 arranged in a circular array are installed between the two turntables 10. The turntables 10 and the rotating plates 11 are fixedly connected. When no external force is applied, the turntables 10 remain stationary due to friction. The turntables 10 or rotating plates 11 need to be rotated manually. The surface of the workbench 1 has a mounting groove 12, and the upper end of the mounting groove 12 has an orthodontic accessory slot 14. The orthodontic accessory slot 14 is fitted with an orthodontic accessory. The surface of the workbench 3 has a resin extrusion groove 7, and a resin bottle is placed inside the resin extrusion groove 7. The resin bottle is made of soft plastic and will deform under force. A flexible tube 8 is installed at one end of the workbench 3 near the rotating plate 11. The flexible tube 8 is connected to the resin extrusion groove 7. It should be noted that the shape and size of the resin extrusion groove 7 should be compatible with the shape and size of the resin bottle. The resin extrusion groove 7 can be customized to match the size of resin bottles on the market according to the user's needs, or a resin bottle of a specific size can be customized according to the size of the resin extrusion groove 7.

[0022] Specifically, a longitudinal partition plate 9 is installed inside the placement slot 2. A fixing block 16 is installed between the partition plate 9 and the workbench 3. A sealing groove 19 is opened in the fixing block 16 towards the hose 8. A sealing rubber block 20 is installed inside the sealing groove 19. By setting the fixing block 16, a sealing groove 19 is opened inside the fixing block 16, and a sealing rubber block 20 is installed inside the sealing groove 19. The size of the sealing rubber block 20 is adapted to the inner diameter of the hose 8. When not in use, the opening of the hose 8 can be put into the sealing groove 19, and the opening of the hose 8 can be sealed by the sealing rubber block 20.

[0023] Furthermore, a limiting block 17 is installed between the fixing block 16 and the hose 8. The two ends of the limiting block 17 are connected to the workbench 3 and the partition plate 9, respectively. The limiting block 17 has a limiting groove 18 facing one end of the hose 8. Before the hose 8 is placed into the sealing groove 19, the hose 8 needs to pass through the inside of the limiting groove 18. The limiting block 17 and the limiting groove 18 can limit the position of the hose 8 to a certain extent, thereby reducing the probability of the hose 8 detaching from the inside of the sealing groove 19.

[0024] Furthermore, two symmetrical grooves 4 are opened on the upper part of the workbench 3, located on the upper and lower sides of the resin extrusion tank 7. The two grooves 4 are connected to two moving plates 5 by sliders. The lower ends of the two moving plates 5 are equipped with force-bearing components 15, and the lower ends of the force-bearing components 15 are equipped with extrusion blocks 6. By setting two movable moving plates 5, each of which has a slider installed at the lower edge, the two sliders are located inside the two grooves 4 respectively. The moving plates 5 can be moved under human interference. The force-bearing components 15 are installed at the lower ends of the two moving plates 5, and the extrusion blocks 6 are installed at the lower ends of the force-bearing components 15. The size of the extrusion blocks 6 is adapted to the size of the resin extrusion tank 7. Since the force is not uniform when the resin bottle is directly squeezed by human, the force-bearing components 15 drive the extrusion plates to squeeze the resin bottle by human. This can squeeze the resin bottle evenly, not only with a larger squeezing area, but also with more uniform squeezing. When the moving plates 5 and sliders move to the rightmost edge of the groove 4, the extrusion blocks 6 are at the top of the resin bottle.

[0025] Furthermore, the force-bearing component 15 includes a connecting block 1501, an extension plate 1502, a force-bearing plate 1503, a longitudinal plate 1504, an opening slot 1505, and a spring telescopic rod 1506. The lower end of the movable plate 5 is fitted with a longitudinal plate 1504. An opening slot 1505 is formed at one end of each of the two longitudinal plates 1504 facing each other. A spring telescopic rod 1506 is installed inside the opening slot 1505. An extension plate 1502 is installed at the upper end of the spring telescopic rod 1506. A connecting block is installed between the two extension plates 1502. The connecting block 1501 has a force plate 1503 installed on its upper end, and its lower end is connected to the upper end of the pressing plate. The user can manually press the force plate 1503 downwards, which will cause the connecting block 1501 and the extension block to move downwards. When the extension block moves downwards, it will press the two spring telescopic rods 1506. After the pressing is completed, the connecting block 1501, the extension block and the force plate 1503 will all return to their original positions under the effect of the spring telescopic rods 1506.

[0026] Furthermore, a light-shielding cover 13 is rotatably connected to the side of the mounting slot 12. The light-shielding cover 13 can block the mounting slot 12 to prevent sunlight from coming into contact with the internal orthodontic accessories of the mounting slot 12.

[0027] The method of use in this embodiment is as follows: By pouring the resin bottle into the resin extrusion groove 7, the resin inside the bottle will slowly move into the tube 8 under the action of gravity. By manually squeezing the force-receiving component 15, the force-receiving component 15 will drive the extrusion plate to move towards the resin bottle, thereby squeezing the resin bottle to expel the resin from the tube 8. After the resin is squeezed onto the surface of the orthodontic accessory, the orthodontic accessory is placed inside the orthodontic accessory slot 14. The light-proof cover 13 is closed. By placing multiple orthodontic accessories that have been coated with resin inside the orthodontic slot, the attending physician only needs to open the light-proof cover to take out and use the pre-filled orthodontic accessory. There is no need to apply resin at the treatment site, which saves chairside time, improves the filling quality of the accessory, reduces material waste, and facilitates the use of the physician.

[0028] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
