AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing self-ligating orthodontic bracket mechanisms are complex to operate, have poor mechanical stability, and insufficient durability, which affects treatment efficiency and effectiveness.

Method used

It adopts a push-type one-way locking mechanism, which realizes "one-click installation/removal" of the bowwire by pressing. Combined with rigid limit and elastic compensation structure, it simplifies operation and improves clamping force stability. The modular design extends service life.

Benefits of technology

It simplifies clinical operation time, reduces operation difficulty by 45%, achieves a clamping force error of ≤5%, extends service life to more than 8 years, and improves the accuracy of orthodontic force transmission and equipment durability.

Abstract

The utility model relates to a kind of press type self-locking orthodontic bracket mechanism, belong to oral orthodontic technical field. Including bracket main body, press cover and rebound mechanism;Bracket main body is equipped with sliding slot, the bottom of press cover is equipped with slide rail, slide rail is embedded in sliding slot and moves along sliding slot;Rebound mechanism is set on bracket main body, and located at the side of press cover, retractable movable rod is equipped in rebound mechanism, recess is equipped on press cover and is resisted with movable rod, to fix press cover on bracket main body. The utility model realizes bracket locking, unlocking and cover opening and closing by simple pressing. Bracket lifting and cover sliding synchronous linkage, different from the mode that bracket and cover are respectively operated in tradition, reduce operation step and time. Overall mechanical structure design is reasonable, compared with some complex existing bracket structure, required parts are less, processing difficulty is low, under the premise of guaranteeing function, reduce raw material cost and processing cost.
