Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dental care pad technology, specifically a dental care pad for air-insertion use. Background Technology

[0002] A bite block for endotracheal intubation care is a special instrument used in endotracheal intubation care. The bite block is placed between the patient's upper and lower incisors and is mainly used to fix the endotracheal tube and prevent the patient from biting down on the tube.

[0003] However, when using a bite block with an endotracheal tube, a double fixation method using adhesive tape and thin straps is typically employed, with gauze placed under the tape to prevent pressure sores on the lips and tube displacement. The tape and straps wrapped around the mouth can easily breed bacteria, and the wrapping process is time-consuming, making it difficult to control the tube position and potentially damaging the oral mucosa. When worn, the bite block covers and compresses the inner walls of the mouth for extended periods, which can easily lead to local pressure injuries to the teeth and gums. The bite block is fixed in position by biting down with the upper and lower teeth, requiring the patient to be conscious and able to cooperate voluntarily. This is not convenient for comatose patients to bite down on the bite block. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a dental pad for air intubation care, 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:

[0006] A dental pad for air intubation care includes a connecting seat and dental pad sleeves that mate with the upper and lower sides of the connecting seat. The connecting seat has a limiting tube in the middle, and a silicone gasket is provided at the right end of the inner wall of the limiting tube. Each dental pad sleeve has an occlusal groove at its outer end, and a base plate is provided at the bottom of each occlusal groove. Each occlusal groove has a U-shaped groove near its side end on its inner wall, and an elastic locking block is provided in each U-shaped groove.

[0007] Furthermore, the upper and lower surfaces of the connecting seat are respectively bonded and fixed to the opposite side of the corresponding dental pad, the width of the outer wall of the connecting seat is adapted to the thickness of the dental pad, and the connecting seat is made of polyethylene material.

[0008] In this invention, with the cooperation of two dental pads and connecting seats, the upper dental pad is inserted into the patient's upper teeth, and the lower dental pad is inserted into the patient's lower teeth, reducing the impact of the upper and lower teeth biting on the tube passing through the connecting seat. The polyethylene material increases corrosion resistance, and the material is lightweight, reducing the feeling of increased oral load during biting.

[0009] Specifically, the limiting tube passes through the connecting seat, the limiting tube is made of polyethylene material, and the limiting tube is bonded and fixed to the connecting seat.

[0010] In this invention, the limiting tube is hollow inside, which facilitates the passage and fitting of the conduit. It is made of polyethylene material, which is convenient for bonding with the connecting seat and increases the stability of bonding of the same material. The limiting tube made of polyethylene material has support and less deformation, which reduces the impact of compression on the conduit inside the limiting tube.

[0011] It should be noted that the silicone gasket has elasticity and the outer ring of the silicone gasket is bonded and fixed to the inner wall of the limiting tube.

[0012] In this invention, the silicone gasket is made of silicone material. Silicone material can deform under force and return to its original shape after the external force is removed. The inner wall of the silicone gasket fits tightly with the outer wall of the catheter passing through the limiting tube, thus limiting the position of the catheter and reducing the swaying of the catheter in the limiting tube, which would cause discomfort to the patient. The outer diameter of the inserted catheter is larger than the inner diameter of the silicone gasket, and the silicone gasket is squeezed to limit the position.

[0013] Furthermore, the dental pad is made of polymethyl methacrylate, the dental pad is U-shaped, and the width of the inner wall of the occlusal groove is adapted to the width of the outer wall of the substrate. The bottom of the substrate is bonded and fixed to the upper surface of the occlusal groove.

[0014] In this invention, polymethyl methacrylate is used to make dental pads, which have high strength and wear resistance, making them suitable for manufacturing dental pads. They can effectively isolate the upper and lower teeth, reduce damage to the teeth caused by molars, and the shape of the dental pad fits the teeth. With the cooperation of the occlusal groove, the upper and lower teeth can be easily pressed together. The base plate increases the toughness of the bottom of the dental pad, reduces the twisting deformation of the dental pad during biting, and maintains the overall horizontality of the dental pad.

[0015] It is worth noting that the width of the inner wall of the U-shaped groove is adapted to the width of the outer wall of the elastic block, and the outer wall of the elastic block is bonded and fixed to the inner wall of the U-shaped groove. The elastic block is made of polyurethane material.

[0016] In this invention, polyurethane has high elasticity and wear resistance, and can withstand repeated compression and stretching. With the cooperation of the elastic locking block, it increases the locking stability of the two ends of the dental pad, which helps the two ends of the dental pad to be inserted and fitted into the patient's upper and lower teeth.

[0017] Secondly, the through slots are evenly spaced, and the through slots near both ends of the dental pad penetrate the corresponding dental pad and occlusal groove, while the through slots located on the inner side of the dental pad are connected to the inside of the occlusal groove.

[0018] In this invention, the dental pad cover has several through grooves. The cooperation of these through grooves helps the area where the dental pad cover is placed to breathe, reducing wear and tear caused by the fit.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0020] 1. This utility model provides a connecting seat with a limiting tube, which is combined with two dental pads with occlusal grooves. The two dental pads are respectively engaged with the upper and lower teeth of the corresponding patients. This helps to limit the position of the tube passing through the limiting tube in the oral cavity with the help of the silicone gasket. The combination of multiple through grooves helps to ventilate the contact area between the dental pad and the teeth, reducing discomfort caused by blocking the teeth.

[0021] This invention uses two elastic locking blocks to achieve a snap-fit ​​fit between the two ends of the mouthguard and the teeth, increasing the stability of the installation. The base plate helps the mouthguard remain horizontal when biting, reducing discomfort caused by compression. Attached Figure Description

[0030] 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.

[0031] Please see Figures 1-4 This embodiment provides a technical solution:

[0032] A dental pad for air intubation care includes a connecting seat 1 and dental pad sleeves 2 that mate with the upper and lower sides of the connecting seat 1. The upper and lower surfaces of the connecting seat 1 are respectively bonded and fixed to the opposite sides of the corresponding dental pad sleeves 2. The width of the outer wall of the connecting seat 1 is adapted to the thickness of the dental pad sleeves 2, and the connecting seat 1 is made of polyethylene material.

[0033] In this invention, with the cooperation of the two dental pads 2 and the connecting seat 1, the upper dental pad 2 is inserted into the patient's upper teeth, and the lower dental pad 2 is inserted into the patient's lower teeth, reducing the impact of the upper and lower teeth biting on the tube passing through the connecting seat 1. The polyethylene material increases corrosion resistance, and the material is lightweight, reducing the increase of oral load during biting.

[0034] Furthermore, a limiting tube 3 is provided in the middle of the connecting seat 1. The limiting tube 3 passes through the connecting seat 1 and is made of polyethylene material. The limiting tube 3 is bonded and fixed to the connecting seat 1.

[0035] In this utility model, the limiting tube 3 is hollow inside, which facilitates the passage and fitting of the conduit. It is made of polyethylene material, which is convenient for bonding and combining with the connecting seat 1, increasing the stability of bonding of the same material. The limiting tube 3 made of polyethylene material has support and less deformation, reducing the impact of compression on the conduit inside the limiting tube 3.

[0036] Specifically, a silicone gasket 30 is provided at the right end of the inner wall of the limiting tube 3. The silicone gasket 30 has elasticity and the outer ring of the silicone gasket 30 is bonded and fixed to the inner wall of the limiting tube 3.

[0037] In this invention, the silicone gasket 30 is made of silicone material. The silicone material can deform under force and return to its original shape after the external force is removed. The inner wall of the silicone gasket 30 fits tightly with the outer wall of the catheter passing through the limiting tube 3, which limits the position of the catheter and reduces the swaying of the catheter in the limiting tube 3, thus reducing patient discomfort. The outer diameter of the inserted catheter is larger than the inner diameter of the silicone gasket 30. The silicone gasket 30 is squeezed to limit the position.

[0038] It is worth noting that each of the dental pads 2 has an occlusal groove 20 at its outer end, and a base plate 22 is provided at the bottom of each occlusal groove 20. The dental pads 2 are made of polymethyl methacrylate and are U-shaped. The width of the inner wall of the occlusal groove 20 is matched with the width of the outer wall of the base plate 22. The bottom of the base plate 22 is bonded and fixed to the upper surface of the occlusal groove 20.

[0039] In this invention, polymethyl methacrylate is used to make dental pads, which have high strength and wear resistance, making them suitable for manufacturing dental pads. They can effectively isolate the upper and lower teeth, reduce damage to the teeth caused by molars, and the shape of the dental pad 2 matches the teeth. With the cooperation of the occlusal groove 20, the upper and lower teeth can be easily pressed together. The base plate 22 increases the toughness of the bottom of the dental pad 2, reduces the twisting deformation of the dental pad 2 during biting, and maintains the overall horizontality of the dental pad 2.

[0040] Secondly, U-shaped grooves 200 are provided on the inner wall of the occlusal groove 20 near the side end, and elastic locking blocks 201 are provided in each U-shaped groove 200.

[0041] It is worth noting that the width of the inner wall of the U-shaped groove 200 is matched with the width of the outer wall of the elastic block 201. The outer wall of the elastic block 201 is bonded and fixed to the inner wall of the U-shaped groove 200. The elastic block 201 is made of polyurethane material.

[0042] In this invention, polyurethane has high elasticity and wear resistance, and can withstand repeated compression and stretching. With the cooperation of the elastic locking block 201, it increases the locking stability of both ends of the dental pad 2, which helps the two ends of the dental pad 2 to be inserted and fitted with the patient's upper and lower teeth.

[0043] Furthermore, the dental pad 2 has several through grooves 21, which are evenly distributed. The through grooves 21 near both ends of the dental pad 2 penetrate the corresponding dental pad 2 and the occlusal groove 20. The through grooves 21 located on the inner side of the dental pad 2 are connected to the inside of the occlusal groove 20.

[0044] In this invention, the cooperation of multiple through slots 21 helps the teeth where the dental pad 2 is fitted to breathe, reducing wear and damage caused by the fit.

[0045] When using the air-assisted nursing dental pad of this embodiment, firstly, the limiting tube 3 with silicone gasket 30 is combined and fixed with the connecting seat 1, and the connecting seat 1 is combined and connected with the two dental pad sleeves 2 facing each other, and the elastic block 201 is installed in the U-shaped groove 200 in the biting groove 20 with base plate 22.

[0046] When a comatose patient needs to wear the dental pad 2, medical staff manually separate the patient's mouth to a size that can accommodate the pad. The two dental pads 2 are then positioned to correspond to the upper and lower teeth, respectively, and the upper and lower teeth engage with the corresponding occlusal grooves 20. With the assistance of the elastic locking block 201, the two ends of the dental pad 2 fit tightly against the teeth, increasing the stability of the garment. The external catheter passes through the silicone gasket 30 in the limiting tube 3. The outer diameter of the catheter is larger than that of the silicone gasket 30, and the frictional force fixes the position of the catheter in the silicone gasket 30. When the patient bites down with their upper and lower teeth, the dental pad 2 and the connecting seat 1 provide support and protection for the catheter in the limiting tube 3, preventing the catheter from being crushed by biting and affecting the use of the endotracheal tube.
