[0019] To facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, the present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments and accompanying drawings. The content mentioned in the embodiments is not intended to limit the present invention. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0020] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the present invention provides an integrated tool for demolding and shaping tissue wax blocks, including a body 1, a raised part 2 and a wax scraping part 3 both disposed on the body 1. The body 1 is for human hand-held use, the raised part 2 is for insertion between the tissue wax block and the mold, and the wax scraping part 3 is for scraping off the excess part of the tissue wax block.
[0021] In actual use, the thickness of the raised part 2 is 0.4-0.6mm, and the thickness of the wax scraping part 3 is 0.15-0.35mm.
[0022] The purpose of this invention is that the raised part 2 is thicker, while the scraping part 3 is thinner. When it is necessary to demold the tissue wax block, the raised part 2 needs to be inserted between the tissue wax block and the mold, and then the tissue wax block is lifted out of the mold to achieve the demolding effect. After the tissue wax block is demolded, the thinner scraping part 3 is used to scrape the two sides of the tissue wax block to remove the excess part of the tissue wax block, thereby achieving the trimming effect. This makes the sides of the tissue wax block flat and the size meets the requirements for placement into the equipment, which is convenient for subsequent processing.
[0023] The thicknesses of the lifting portion 2 and the wax scraping portion 3 in this invention were determined through research: the lifting portion 2 needs to withstand greater force to lift the tissue wax block away from the mold, therefore its thickness is required to be relatively large; while the wax scraping portion 3 needs to be relatively sharp to smoothly scrape off excess wax, therefore its thickness is required to be relatively thin. Furthermore, the dimensions of the lifting portion 2 and the wax scraping portion 3 should not be too large, otherwise it will be difficult to adapt to the size of the tissue wax block for more precise operations.
[0024] In this embodiment, the raised portion 2 and the wax-scraping portion 3 are respectively disposed on different sides of the body 1. For example, in Figure 1 In the middle, the raised part 2 and the wax-scraping part 3 are located on adjacent sides of the main body 1; or as follows Figure 3 In this configuration, the raised portion 2 and the wax-scraping portion 3 are located on opposite sides of the main body 1. Regardless of the configuration, the raised portion 2 and the wax-scraping portion 3 can be separated.
[0025] by Figure 1 For example, since the raised part 2 and the wax scraping part 3 are located on adjacent sides of the main body 1, the other two sides of the main body 1 are thicker, which ensures that when the staff holds the main body 1, they can keep the working side far away from the hand position, which can effectively protect the safety of medical staff and prevent them from being scratched.
[0026] In this embodiment, the thickness of the main body 1 is greater than the thickness of the raised portion 2, and the thickness of the wax scraping portion 3 gradually decreases from one end connected to the main body 1 to the other end, with a minimum thickness of 0.15-0.35 mm. Preferably, the thickness of the main body 1 is 0.8-1.2 mm, which ensures the strength of the main body 1 and the stability of the main body 1 when held by the operator, thereby preventing the main body 1 from easily deforming.
[0027] In this embodiment, the main body 1 is covered with a protective sleeve made of a soft material. For example, the protective sleeve can be rubber or silicone. Due to its softness, the fingers of the worker will not be squeezed too much when the worker holds the main body 1 and exerts force, so that the worker's fingers will not be too tired or uncomfortable during long-term work.
[0028] In this embodiment, the body 1 is provided with a support portion 4, which is used to abut against the mold when the raised portion 2 is inserted between the tissue wax block and the mold. The support portion 4 can be an integrally formed protrusion on the body 1, acting as a fulcrum, allowing for better demolding using the lever principle when the tissue wax block is demolded. Specifically, the support portion 4 is preferably located on the body 1 near the raised portion 2.
[0029] In this embodiment, the body 1, the raised portion 2, and the wax scraping portion 3 are all made of metal, and the body 1, the raised portion 2, and the wax scraping portion 3 are integrally formed by stamping. Preferably, this utility model is made of steel and has sufficient strength.
[0030] In this embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the raised part 2 is triangular, that is, the position where the raised part 2 is inserted between the tissue wax block and the body 1 is the sharp corner of the front end, thereby ensuring that the raised part 2 is more easily inserted between the tissue wax block and the body 1 to achieve demolding of the tissue wax block.
[0031] Meanwhile, the triangular structure of the raised part 2 ensures that it has sufficient strength. Furthermore, the raised part 2 and the wax scraping part 3 can be connected by a connecting part 5 with a triangular cross-sectional shape.
[0032] In this embodiment, the main body 1, the raised part 2, and the wax scraping part 3 are arranged on the same plane, that is, the overall visual effect of this utility model is a plate-like structure with a regular shape and easy storage.
[0033] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with reference to a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make some changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the present utility model without departing from the scope of the present utility model shall fall within the scope of the present utility model.
