Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of oral cleaning technology, specifically to a tartar removal device for orthodontic treatment. Background Technology

[0002] Orthodontics is a discipline that uses various methods to adjust the position of teeth, occlusion, and jawbone shape to achieve aesthetic, functional, and health goals. Its core objective is to solve problems such as misaligned teeth, malocclusion (e.g., underbite, overbite), and jawbone developmental imbalances.

[0003] Braces are a common tool in orthodontics. The professional name for braces is "orthodontic appliance". They are the most common device in orthodontics. By continuously applying light force, they guide the teeth to move to the ideal position. Common types of braces include fixed appliances, clear aligners, and functional appliances. For children aged 3-12, functional appliances or simple devices can be used to intervene and avoid serious deformities later. In the process of orthodontics, it is very important to use a tartar removal device every day.

[0004] Currently, during orthodontic treatment, the presence of braces increases the difficulty of teeth cleaning. Residual food debris and plaque are more likely to accumulate around brackets and at the junction of archwire and teeth, forming tartar. This leads to the need to change the nozzles of traditional tartar removal devices depending on the area and focus of cleaning (e.g., standard straight nozzles, which are straight tubes with round openings, are used to clean tooth surfaces and the labial and buccal surfaces of brackets; curved nozzles, which are L-shaped tubes, are used to clean the gaps between brackets and tooth surfaces and under the archwire). This results in the need to carry multiple different nozzles for each tartar removal, which is inconvenient and carries the risk of accidental loss. Therefore, we propose a tartar removal device for orthodontic use. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a dental plaque removal device for orthodontic use, which has the advantages of easy replacement and avoidance of nozzle loss. It solves the problem that it is very inconvenient to carry multiple different nozzles for replacement each time dental plaque is removed, and there is a risk of accidental loss.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] Please see Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a tartar removal device for orthodontic use, comprising:

[0029] The storage tank 1 has a partition 105 fixedly connected to the lower end of its inner cavity, and a pump 107 fixedly installed on the top of the partition 105. The discharge end of the pump 107 is connected to a liquid guide pipe 108 extending to the outside of the storage tank 1, and a liquid guide rod 109 is connected to one end of the storage tank 1.

[0030] The hinge seat 3 has an L-shaped flip member 301 hinged to its inner side. One end of the L-shaped flip member 301 is fixedly connected to a limit ring 303. The inner side of the limit ring 303 is slidably connected to a nozzle 302. One side of the nozzle 302 is provided with a threaded connection part 304 that is threaded to the left end of the liquid-passing rod 109.

[0031] Anti-slip rubber sleeve 2 is attached to the right end of the outer surface of the liquid-passing rod 109. A control switch 201 is provided between the left end of the anti-slip rubber sleeve 2 and the outer surface of the left end of the liquid-passing rod 109.

[0032] The bottom of the liquid storage tank 1 is fixedly connected with an anti-slip rubber pad 101, the top of the liquid storage tank 1 is threadedly connected with a sealing cap 102, the bottom of the inner cavity of the liquid storage tank 1 is provided with a storage battery 106, the lower right end of the liquid storage tank 1 is provided with a charging port 104, and there are four hinge seats 3, which are evenly distributed at an angle on the outer surface of the left end of the liquid passage rod 109.

[0033] This technical solution: With the hinge seat 3, when cleaning is required based on the area and focus of the tartar removal, the user selects one of the four nozzles 302 and rotates it outwards. With the assistance of the limiting ring 303, the L-shaped rotating part 301 rotates outwards around the hinge seat 3. Once the corresponding nozzle 302 is level with the liquid-conducting rod 109, the threaded connection 304 of the corresponding nozzle 302 is screwed into the left end of the liquid-conducting rod 109. Then, the nozzle 302 is driven into the oral cavity by the anti-slip rubber sleeve 2 and the liquid-conducting rod 109. Finally, the control switch 201 activates the pump 107, which then pumps the liquid from the storage tank 1... The oral cleaning solution inside is sent into the liquid-conducting rod 109 through the liquid guide tube 108, and finally sprayed outward from the nozzle 302. This allows for cleaning according to the different areas and focuses of tartar removal. When it is necessary to replace the corresponding nozzle 302, the pump 107 is turned off by the control switch 201, and the nozzle 302 is rotated in the opposite direction to exit the left end of the liquid-conducting rod 109. This causes the L-shaped flipping part 301 of the nozzle 302 to flip inward and reset around the hinge seat 3. Then, a new nozzle 302 can be selected and screwed onto the left end of the liquid-conducting rod 109 for reuse. This facilitates replacement for the user and avoids the loss of the nozzle 302.

[0034] It should be noted that there are four types of spray nozzles 302 used in this device, including standard straight nozzles, elbow nozzles, dental plaque nozzles, and pulse massage nozzles. Meanwhile, the pump 107, battery 106, control switch 201, and charging port 104 can all be purchased directly from the market, and the connection methods and electrical connections of each component adopt mature conventional methods in the existing technology, so they will not be described in detail here.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] Based on Embodiment 1, this utility model is as follows: Figures 1-4 As shown, a liquid level observation window 103 is provided at the upper right end of the liquid storage tank 1.

[0037] This technical solution allows users to easily observe the amount of oral cleaning solution remaining in the storage tank 1 through the liquid level observation window 103, making it convenient for users to add more as needed.

[0038] Example 3

[0039] Based on Embodiment 1, this utility model is as follows: Figures 1-4 As shown, the outer surface of the nozzle 302 is provided with a guide ring groove 305 that is adapted to the limiting ring 303, and the limiting ring 303 slides on the inner side of the guide ring groove 305. A multi-faceted rotating sleeve 306 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the nozzle 302.

[0040] This technical solution: By setting the guide ring groove 305, the nozzle 302 can move and rotate laterally within the corresponding limiting ring 303, which facilitates the screwing and unscrewing of the nozzle 302 and the liquid passage rod 109. By setting the multi-faceted rotating sleeve 306, it is convenient for the user to perform the rotation operation of tightening and unscrewing the nozzle 302.

[0041] Example 4

[0042] Based on Embodiment 1, this utility model is as follows: Figures 1-4 As shown, Y-shaped positioning seats 4 are fixedly connected to all four sides of the outer surface of the liquid-conducting rod 109, and the spray nozzle 302 is snapped into the upper end of the Y-shaped positioning seat 4.

[0043] This technical solution: By setting the Y-shaped positioning seat 4, it can cooperate with the spray nozzle 302, thereby enabling the positioning of the spray nozzle 302 that is not in use temporarily.

[0044] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model.
